Trivia Brawl
9pm @
Doc's Music Hall
215 S. Walnut
Every Sunday, egos are crushed and legends are born at Trivia Brawl. Come and play for free, solo or with a team, and show off your command of all knowledge trivial. Win, and split up a a $50 Doc's gift certificate on food, drinks, tickets, or merchandise. Every game is six rounds of trivia questions on a wide variety of topics in pop culture, science, history, and current events. Every tenth question is part of our inadvertent quest to discriminate against the deaf, and has players listening to a song and attempting to identify its title, band, and album. The sixth round is a special visual aid round in which the blind are instead at an unfair disadvantage. Team signup starts at 9pm, and unless we go into a Sudden Death Lightning Bloodfeud Overtime Round (of Death)™, the game tends to wrap up at about 11pm.

An Unearthly Senior
7pm @
Letterman Building Rm 125, Ball State
Presenter: Austin Lugar
Throughout the years one cult show has continued to grow on a large international level. For many, Doctor Who was just the weird show that played on PBS late at night with the people in funny accents and ridiculously long scarfs. After its reboot in 2005, it's one of the biggest shows in England and a favorite for many Americans as well. Austin Lugar will take a look at the full history of the show that has stretched for almost 50 years. The talk will serve as a celebration for the fans who have loved it for years but also as a humorous (and accessible) guide for those who have never heard of Time Lords or the TARDIS. After the speech, there will be a panel discussion with Professor Sonny Wingler and undergraduates Ian Shepherd and Leigh Montano as they look at how there are so many different ways to enjoy the show.Tags: dr. who, educational, speakers Added by: Graham Watson Source: Ball State Communications Center Event link: http://themunciescene.com/event/1298 -

A Mad Man With a Podium
10am @
E.B. and Bertha C. Ball Center
400 Minnetrista Boulevard
No Charge - Reservations required by calling 765-285-8975 or e-mailing ebball@bsu.edu.
Presenter: Austin Lugar
Doctor Who was on for 1963-1989 with seven different actors playing The Doctor. After a failed FOX TV movie in 1996, it seemed that the show was dead forever. Yet one ambitious producer rebooted the franchise in 2005 with high critical success and a new generation of fans. No longer are there cheesy costumes or wobbly sets, but slick special effects, incredible stories and surprisingly emotional depth. In a fun look at the past 7 years of the show, Austin Lugar will talk about why this show is so special. (This will be an entirely different talk than the one on Wednesday and there won't be too many spoilers for new fans.)Tags: dr. who, educational, speakers Added by: Graham Watson Source: Ball State Communications Center Event link: http://themunciescene.com/event/1299 -
