🌹 Philosophy, cocktails, and a new Lancaster quiz

Published 28 days agoΒ β€’Β 2 min read

Good morning!

For this week's issue, we sat down with retired philosophy professor Dennis Weiss to talk about his long-running film series at Zoetropolis, where big-screen cinema meets cocktails and actual conversation. The story is below, and the next screening is tonight.

Here's what we have for you:

  • The case for thinking over drinks (and a film series worth checking out)
  • A brutally honest date night tier list
  • A guest post from our friends at Sauder Fuel
  • Weekend events, live music, and a house price to guess

The Lancaster GeoGuess Challenge

Today, we drop you (via Google Street View) at 9 random spots around the county. Can you identify the locations?
