TWD FAQ

Thinking While Drinking is a social discussion group where members gather to discuss thought-provoking topics in a relaxed setting, often over a drink. We have chapters in various cities, and we also host online events for members across the globe.

Each event has the following format:

First half hour is an opportunity to grab a drink/food, introduce yourself to other group members, and select which group you’ll sit in. At the half hour mark everyone sits down in the small groups (set up by the organizers) and the facilitators lead 1.5-2 hours of conversation on the topic of the day.

Absolutely! While many members enjoy a drink, it’s by no means a requirement. The primary focus is on stimulating conversation. Non-alcoholic beverages or just the company of fellow thinkers are more than enough.

Currently, we are in six cities in the US. They are San Diego (CA), Orange County (CA), Las Vegas (NV), Seattle (WA), Tampa (FL) & Los Angeles (CA). We also have an Online chapter that meets on Zoom.

Definitely! We always welcome member involvement and appreciate new ideas. If you’re passionate about a topic and want to lead a discussion, get in touch with your local chapter’s organizer or post in our Discord channels.
