Standup Takes on Trump's Inauguration, in our Collective Lounge.
Sharp, spirited, and maybe a little playful.
What happens when we take a fresh and lively approach to one of the most talked-about moments in recent history? Join us for an evening where sharp insights meet a dash of humor as we unpack Donald Trump's Inauguration and its lasting impact on politics, media, and society.
Hosted by Tom Van de Weghe, our Politics & Society curator, this event features three dynamic speakers ready to deliver punchy, no-nonsense "elevator talks" on their personal take on the topic:
- Erica Lutes: Executive Director of Fulbright Belgium and seasoned commentator on transatlantic relations, bringing a sharp and insightful perspective on U.S. politics and society.
- Steven De Foer: U.S. politics expert and journalist who always knows how to mix facts with flair.
- Frederik De Bosschere: A digital strategist and public speaker known for his sharp sense of humor and his insights into technology and society.
Expect a fast-paced and lively discussion, packed with:
- Bold opinions, witty commentary, and a touch of the unexpected.
- A look at how Trump’s inauguration shaped political discourse—without taking ourselves too seriously.
