Skeptics in the Pub Toronto - In-Person Event
The Association for Science and Reason will be holding our regular in-person Skeptics in the Pub event. (Monthly Zoom meetings will continue as usual, but we will also be doing monthly in-person events on the second Tuesday of every month).
Our previous venue, Prenup Pub, has closed, so we will meet this month at the Town Crier Pub, 115 John St, a 9 minute (600m) walk from St Andrew Station. It has very good food and a large seletion of beer, but was quite noisy last month. We'll give it another try to see what it is like this time.
We will get together for a social event to say hello to people we may have only met on-line and to reconnect with some long-time acquaintances. We will not be having a presentation or a speaker, just a chance to sit down and have a meal and/or a beverage and a conversation with a pleasant group of fellow skeptics.
Food and beverages are available from the menu. Foods include a full menu from soups and appetizers to entrées and dessert. The beverage menu includes over 50 different beers on tap, many bottled beers, a selection of wines, various cocktails, and as well as non-alcoholic drinks.
When you arrive, just ask where the "Skeptics" are. If you plan on joining us, please register so we can estimate the number of attendees.

* Thoughtful conversations with experienced operators;
* Stories, insights, and lessons learned from fractional work;
* Opportunities for referrals, collaborations, and partnerships;
Come when you can, grab a drink, and mingle.
Who should attend:
* Practicing fractional executives (CXOs);
* Independent consultants operating at the executive level;
* Experienced operators transitioning into fractional roles;
* Founders and senior executives with SMBs looking for fractional leadership;
* Senior executives with VC/PE firms looking for fractional leadership for their portfolio firms.
Logistics:
* We're meeting at Pogue Mahone Pub & Kitchen (near Yonge & College);
* It's a cash bar and food will also be available for purchase;
* Space may be limited, so please RSVP if you plan to attend.
Come out and swap stories, talk shop about clients and pricing, and meet great people over a drink.

Barking & Being Walk
A relaxed walking group for anyone who enjoys dogs, philosophy, and good conversation by the water.
We meet in Port Credit and walk along the lake, taking time to discuss big questions about life, meaning, freedom, responsibility, and the strange experience of being human. Conversations are loosely inspired by existential thinkers like Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, and Albert Camus, but no academic background is required.
Dogs are welcome, but you don’t need a dog to join. Some people come to walk their dogs, some come for the philosophy, and some just want fresh air and thoughtful conversation by the lake.
Bring water, dog treats & poop bags
It’s PWYC just to cover the meet up membership cost and to ensure attendance is accurate

Friday night social: Let's go to scene 75!
We’re heading back to Scene75 on Friday, March 27 for a high-energy night of laser tag, mini golf, go-karts, arcade games, and whatever chaos we decide to get into.
We’ve done this one before and it was a blast — great turnout, tons of laughs, and just the right mix of competition and hanging out. If you missed it last time, this is your shot.
🎯 What to Expect:
Laser tag battles
Mini golf challenges
Go-karts (for those who need speed)
Arcade games & game cards
You can load however much you’d like onto a game card. Most people will probably be good with $15–$30, but it’s totally up to you.
This is a super casual event — show up, jump into whatever looks fun, rotate groups, and hang out. No pressure, no complicated structure. Just a solid Friday night with good people.
Also… I haven’t hosted in a bit and I’m making a push to be more active again. If you’ve got ideas for future events you’d love to do, bring them. I’m all ears.
Let’s run it back. 🔥
