Bar quizzes, sports days — Bel has thrown them all. For her 41st we're flipping it: instead of Bel entertaining us, each guest brings one small show-and-tell. Four minutes. Teach us something, show us something, tell us something you're proud of.
A slideshow works. So does an object with a story, a taste-test, a live demo, or an educational hot take. Present solo or as a duo with your plus-one. There will be a gong for overrunners, bingo cards for everyone, and an awards ceremony with categories you'll want to win.
