VERSUS

Caveat livestreams are presented as pay-what-you-can. If you're able we'd very much appreciate the cost of a ticket and a drink so we can support our staff and performers: https://paypal.me/caveatnyc 

WrestleMania meets Debate Club

Your hosts Meg Pierson, Zak Martellucci, and Dustin Growick lead a rotating cast of special guest experts in a battle royale of serious—and not so serious—topics. Who will come out on top? Dinosaurs or mammals? Biology or physics? Space or oceans? Chock-full of trivia, games, and prizes, the show will conclude with the answer to an age-old question. The winner is up to you, as audience endorsements and YOUR vote will ultimately determine which team is crowned champion of VERSUS.

THIS MONTH: Wet vs. Dry

Repping Wet: Sarah McAnulty (@SarahMackAttack) is a squid biologist and science communicator. She is the founder and executive director of Skype a Scientist, a non-profit organization that connects scientists and teachers around the world for live video calls. She received her PhD from the University of Conneticut, researching the Hawaiian bobtail squid and its symbiosis with a bioluminescent bacterium.

Repping Dry: Imogene Cancellare (@biologistimo) is a conservation biologist, science communicator, and professional cat scientist. When she isn't busy eating good noodles, or thinking about noodles (which has nothing to do with cats), she's researching snow leopard genetics as part of her PhD research at the University of Delaware. She has lived on dry land for her whole life.

ABOUT CAVEAT LIVESTREAMS:

Going crazy yet? Craving information, but starting to feel desperate to receive it in a non-depressing way? Worried about the state of art and intelligent discussion in the time of social distancing? We got you.

Your favorite nerdy basement bar is hosting livestreams 5 nights a week with extra-special online editions of our shows. Medical advice without any bullsh*t! Wrestlemania-style debates over different scientific principles (where you can chime in)! Political science with that ever-needed dash of showmanship! If it’s smart and it’s weird and it’s entertaining, you know we’re gonna give it to you.

It’s a weird time and it may only get weirder. Hopefully some good old fashioned intelligent nightlife can help get you through it - right from the safety of your home.

And if you’d like to contribute to the artists and keeping the venue alive, here’s a link where you can do that! We’ll split whatever comes in between making sure Caveat stays functioning and the artists on stage.
