The Unspeakeasy – Join the launch of Meghan Daum’s latest Unspeakable media project

Former LA Times Columnist & NY Times Best Selling Author Hosts – Lloyd Cellars Supports with Wine Tasting

In the spring of 2022, the writer, podcaster and teacher Meghan Daum led a group of ten women into the California high desert for three days of brainstorming about an exciting new project. In a series of candid, intense, deeply informed, and often emotional discussions, they wrestled with some of the most vexing and complicated issues of our times: the chaos of COVID policies, the new gender ideology, the state of the #MeToo movement, gun rights, reproductive rights, the ideological capture of fine arts and culture, and much more. It was a life-changing experience.

It was also the start of The Unspeakeasy.

What Is The Unspeakeasy? The Unspeakeasy is a community for women who crave honest, rational, nuanced conversations about subjects that don’t come with easy solutions or lend themselves to memes or hashtags. It’s kind of like The Unspeakable Podcast, except everyone’s invited to join the conversation, connect with one another, and expand our worldviews while also reclaiming a sense of shared reality. If you’d like to join Meghan Daum and friends for a private launch event and wine tasting in Los Angeles on Sunday, January 29, email your request to joel@lloydcellars.com!
