Fresh from a sold-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, 100 Things You're Overthinking is coming home to Berlin. Got some thoughts in your head that have been wearing you out? Just write them anonymously on pieces of paper we provide and watch the comics create a set on the spot, just for you! The show is fun, fast, and always unexpected. Entry without a ticket is not guaranteed, as we have regulars who religiously come back every evening for a completely different show. 'Very funny but also thought-provoking' ★★★★★ The Scotsman Reserve your seat for just €2, and at the end of the show, you decide what it was worth (suggested contribution: €10-15). Reservations are held until 10 minutes before the show starts. This is a paid show—you just get to choose how much to pay. Book now!

Home Alone Meetup 🎄 Holidays in a big city can be strange — festive everywhere, yet often quite lonely, especially for queer folks. Friends travel, families are complicated, and not everyone has plans they’re excited about. So let’s change that! Our Home Alone Meetup is an easygoing get-together for meeting new friends and finding company to spend the holidays with. No pressure, no awkward icebreakers — just a cozy space to chat, connect, and see who else is around. Join us at Prince Peach on Sunday the 21st, from 16:00 to 20:00. Whether you’re hoping to find a group of Christmas dinner buddies, a winter walk companion, or just someone to catch a movie with while everyone else is away, you’re very welcome. We won’t be open during the holidays themselves, but we can offer this moment to connect — so none of us has to be home alone unless we want to be.

This Sunday it's time for another clothes swap, at the wonderful Prince Peach. Have some cake, swap some clothes, and have a lovely Sunday afternoon with us. 💸 Entry is free, but make sure to get a [donation based ticket ](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/queer-sunday-hangout-with-closing-swap-tickets-1553198451379?aff=oddtdtcreator)before the event!

**Caller: Gaye Fifer** **Band: Hot Coffee Breakdown** **Big Scioty Contra Dance** **temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!

Communication is everything in life! You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate. 1266 Dublin Road, Columbus, OH 43215 Hosted by the Church of Scientology of Central Ohio For more information, contact Rhiannon, the Event Host at 614-221-5024
