Kooky, boozy, mad-scientist grandpa Rick Sanchez and mild-mannered Morty form one hell of a dysfunctional, dimension-hopping duo as they traverse the multiverse in the Adult Swim animated sitcom Rick and Morty. Now pushing its fourth season, the show boasts a loyal fanbase—so loyal, in fact, that a Rick and Morty-themed trivia pub crawl will be hosted by various venues throughout downtown San Jose this Saturday. Crawlers, encouraged to dress up, get access to exclusive themed drinks, souvenirs and a three-round trivia competition. The crawl starts off at The Brit and continues at venues within a short walking distance.

It’s not often that rewatching a sitcom seven times all the way through pays off, but this Saturday is one such occasion.

It’s not often that rewatching a sitcom seven times all the way through pays off, but this Saturday is one such occasion. Three rounds of 25 questions surrounding five of the nearest and dearest ’90s pals will test the public’s Friends literacy. What’s up with Phoebe’s mother? How many non-human creatures has Joey and Chandler’s apartment seen? Does anybody know what they are feeding the smelly cat? What is Ross’ problem? Perhaps one of the world’s most ancient questions will finally be solved: How the hell did they afford that apartment? Head to triviacrawl.com/sj for info.

These days, it can be hard to imagine a world where a stalwart, libertarian, survivalist cynic and a Hillary Clinton-loving, bright-eyed optimist would be friends.

These days, it can be hard to imagine a world where a stalwart, libertarian, survivalist cynic and a Hillary Clinton-loving, bright-eyed optimist would be friends. But as fans of Parks and Recreation know, there is such a place: the idyllic, fictional midwestern town of Pawnee, Indiana. The show gave us unforgettable characters, like Ron Swanson, and great catchphrases—treat yourself! But the NBC sitcom is also a time capsule of sorts, debuting just months after Obama’s inauguration and dropping the final curtain shortly before Donald Trump’s fateful escalator ride. Connect with your neighbors and reminisce about simpler times.
