Dear Josh - The Show Where Your Problems Are the Punchline
**Exclusive offer for Board Games Barcelona members 🎲**
Use code: **BGBCN** for 20% off.
**🎟 [Get tickets HERE](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1983985315486?aff=oddtdtcreator)**
What happens when a room full of strangers bring their worst dating disasters, career mistakes, and life dilemmas - and a comedian has to fix them live on stage?
**That’s Dear Josh.**
No script. No rehearsal. You submit your real problem. Josh and a panel of Barcelona’s funniest comedians solve it live - and the whole room watches.
**Here’s how it works:**
Before the show, you submit your problem - dating, career, bad decisions, moral dilemmas, whatever’s keeping you up at night. Josh picks the best ones and works through them live on stage with his panel. Some nights you’ll cry laughing. Some nights you’ll genuinely walk away with clarity. Most nights, both.
Every show is completely one-of-a-kind because the audience writes it.
**Why people come:**
∙ You’ve watched Josh give advice online. Now watch him do it live - with no filter and a microphone.
∙ It’s a comedy show, a social experiment, and a night out you’ll actually remember.
∙ Whether you come with friends or by yourself, you’re leaving with a story.
**ABOUT THE HOST**
Josh Otusanya is a stand-up comedian and content creator with 11 million followers across social media and hundreds of millions of views online. Known for turning real human experiences into sharp, funny, and surprisingly useful content - he’s now bringing that energy from the internet to the stage here in Barcelona.
**📅 Friday April 24th - 8:30PM**

⚽️ ***FUTEVOLEI*** 🇧🇷
Es una disciplina que nació en Brasil y que hoy en día se ha expandido por todo el mundo, destacando por su dinamismo, técnica y estilo espectacular.
Más allá de eso, el futevóley es creatividad, coordinación y conexión.
Las clases son dinámicas, divertidas y adaptadas para que cualquier persona, incluso sin experiencia, pueda empezar desde cero.
⚽ **Técnicas fundamentales**
Para jugar bien al futevóley, hay varias técnicas básicas que se deben dominar:
• **Control con el pie**: Es la base del juego, permite recibir y dirigir el balón con precisión.
• **Toque de pecho**: Muy importante para amortiguar balones y preparar jugadas.
• **Cabeceo**: Clave tanto en defensa como en ataque, especialmente cerca de la red.
• **Control con muslo**: Ayuda a mantener el balón en juego en situaciones difíciles.
• **Remate** (ataque): Movimientos acrobáticos como la chilena o la bicicleta son característicos del deporte.
• **Colocación**: El segundo toque que prepara el ataque, requiere precisión y visión de juego.
⸻

The 10th RPG Event: Age of Umbra: Evrados' Lament (Daggerheart)
**THE RPG EVENT**
We are pleased to announce the tenth RPG event of the **Barcelona Roleplaying Community**, where we'll have 10 tables with totally different and unique games. Everyone is welcome to join, from experts to first-time players; no experience is needed or knowledge about the system.
We will play in **ENGLISH**.
The cost of participation is **10 EURO**, which you will pay at the entrance.
**THE ADVENTURE**: Age of Umbra: Evrados' Lament
**GAME MASTER**: Ella Hazel
**SYSTEM**: Daggerheart
**DESCRIPTION**: A century after the God-King’s betrayal cursed the Halcyon Domain, survival clings to the light of Sacred Pyres. When Evrados, huntmaster of Okros, was dragged into the depths of the Shalk Chasm, his loss was mourned—until his voice returned, screaming from the darkness beyond the Pyre’s reach. Those who rushed to save him vanished, their cries now echoing alongside his: haunting, terror-filled, and mocking the community with every passing moment. Bound by their own debts, loyalties, and secrets, the party descends into a forgotten temple of a Veiled God, the community’s last hope to bring Evrados and his men back. Each step away from the light of the Sacred Pyre brims with peril, corruption, and paranoia. Working together, can the party uncover what has happened, bring Evrados and his men home, and survive the horrors that await?
Tone and safety: RP focused, grim, psychological horror, body horror, paranoia, gore, death and darkness.
**PLACE**: We will play at the [ARCHIVO ARCANO](https://www.archivoarcano.com/). Please, wait next to the entrance where you will be welcomed and guided by one of the organizers.
**DRINKS & FOOD**: You can purchase drinks at the place, but you are NOT ALLOWED to bring them from outside. You CAN bring your own food. You even should do that ;). If you don't do that there will be an option to buy some snacks at the place or get a sandwich in the restaurant nearby.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
**IF YOU HAVEN'T JOINED THE GAME IN TIME**
At the moment, there is no waiting list. If a player drops out, we will reopen the event and announce it on Discord (and possibly on Meetup).
Players who arrive more than **15 minutes late** will automatically forfeit their spot, which will then be offered to people waiting at the venue.
If you decide to show up without a reserved place, you may still be able to join a table if a spot becomes available.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
**IF YOU ARE NEW TO THE BARCELONA ROLEPLAYING COMMUNITY**

FILOMEETUP Filosofía y ciencia: enseñanzas prácticas de Aristóteles
¿Cómo orientarnos hacia una vida plena? Descubre las claves de Aristóteles en un encuentro vivencial y reflexivo.
Aristóteles no solo fue uno de los grandes pensadores de la historia, también fue un observador incansable de la realidad.
Su filosofía nació del asombro, pero también del contacto directo con la naturaleza, la experiencia y la vida cotidiana. Para él, comprender el mundo era inseparable de aprender a vivir mejor.
**En este Filomeetup exploraremos cómo Aristóteles unió filosofía y ciencia sobre la vida. Cómo tomar mejores decisiones, el poder de los hábitos y, en definitiva, cómo orientarnos hacia una vida más plena.**
Será un encuentro vivencial, con ejercicios y reflexiones que podrás llevarte a tu día a día. Herramientas filosóficas para tu día a día.
Un espacio para aprender juntos, cuestionar, dialogar y conectar con otros buscadores.
*¡Aporta tu perspectiva o simplemente ven a inspirarte y despertar lo que ya está en ti!*
Actividad impartida por: Belinda Martinez
**📅 Sábado 25 de abril de 2026 — 19:00 h a 20:30 h**

Board games at The Forge
The Forge does have a full bar and kitchen. There is no cover charge but they do request all attendees to purchase a minimum of ~20 per person. Soft drink refills are 1 each. Please support our hosts so we can continue to provide great events for the group!
The Forge has a large library of games available for us to enjoy. Hosts and regulars will also provide numerous popular games but please bring any games you would like to teach and/or play.
Doors open at 6, and we expect gaming to be rolling by around 630. Please promptly end your games and clear out the space at 10pm when the bar closes.
We encourage socializing but do not permit disruptive behavior of any kind. Thank you for your continued commitment to providing a fun and welcoming space to veteran, newbie, and rookie gamers in the Columbus area.
Parking can sometimes fill esrly. There is additional parking lot behind the neighboring Mexican restaurant that is free and easy to walk from but it's a bit hidden.
Casual Boardgames - make friends, then beat them in games
Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations.
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that.
We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus.
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn.
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play.
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders…
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords…
IMPORTANT:
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for.
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.
Duty vs. Results: What Makes an Action Moral?
When judging morality, should we prioritize **intentions/duty** or **outcomes/results**? It introduces two influential philosophers as representatives of these approaches.
* **Immanuel Kant (deontology):** An action is moral when it is done from **duty** and follows rational, universal principles (the **categorical imperative**). Certain acts—like lying—are wrong regardless of the consequences; you can’t do a wrong thing for a right reason.
* **John Stuart Mill (utilitarian consequentialism):** The morality of an action is determined by its **effects**, specifically how much **happiness/well-being** it produces. Mill argues that some pleasures are “higher” than others, and that good intentions don’t redeem harmful outcomes.
## Discussion Questions
1. **The lying dilemma:** A murderer comes to your door and asks if your friend is hiding inside. Kant would say you must not lie.
2. **Can good intentions rescue a bad outcome?**
3. **The organ harvest problem:** A surgeon has five patients dying of organ failure and one healthy patient in for a checkup. Killing the one to harvest organs would save five lives, and the math works out for the utilitarian. Why does this feel so deeply wrong? Is that feeling a point in Kant's favor, or just a bias we should overcome?
4. **Do rules need exceptions?** Kant insists moral rules must be universal, with no exceptions. But most of us can imagine extreme scenarios where any rule seems like it should bend. Does the need for exceptions fatally undermine deontology, or is the strength of the system precisely that it refuses to bend?
5. **Who gets to calculate the consequences?** Utilitarianism asks us to maximize good outcomes, but we're notoriously bad at predicting consequences. If we can't reliably know the results of our actions, is it practical to base our entire moral system on outcomes? Does this uncertainty push us back toward rules and principles?
6. **Everyday morality:** Think about a real moral decision you've made recently, even a small one. Did you reason more like a Kantian (what's the right thing to do in principle?) or more like a utilitarian (what will produce the best result?)? Do most people naturally lean one way?
7. **Justice vs. the greater good:** A town can prevent a deadly plague by sacrificing one innocent person. The greater good is clearly served. But is it just? Can an action be morally right and deeply unjust at the same time?
8. **The big synthesis question:** Are these two systems actually opposed, or do they often arrive at the same answers by different paths? Is it possible that we need both: rules to guide us in the moment and consequences to evaluate systems and policies over time?
