Turns out I missed some pretty cool stuff in last week’s newsletter - like Tai Nguyen’s intimate comedy show hosted in his own living room, or a free screening of Turning Red (for those of us without Disney+) at Allbirds.

I shared them on Instagram right after I found out, but I didn’t wanna hit your inbox again since this is a once-a-week type thing. Still figuring out who in town I need to keep up with, so any recommendations are appreciated!
