What we’re about
The Gotham Inquiry Collective is a group for people who wish to understand the world and how to navigate it, who reject dogmas and are interested in evidence-based inquiry and rational thinking. No topics are barred, from science to pseudoscience, from history to philosophy, from politics to current events. Join us for our in-person meetings over food and drinks or for our online discussions. Let’s investigate reality freely and openly, together!

See all- Why you should be more skeptical the next time you read a health news articlePark Plaza Restaurant, Brooklyn, NY$5.00
CBS News claimed the sushi condiment could offer a “boost in memory,” while USA Today suggested it was linked to “a better brain.” The New York Post noted it had “really substantial” cognitive benefits. We all want to be healthy, but can we trust news articles about what is good (or bad) for us? Join us for a discussion of skepticism and health, based on an article by Rina Raphael in the latest issue of Skeptical Inquirer magazine.
