Are you ready to be a part of something that nobody has ever done before? 

This is our last lecture of 2026 and our first mystery lecture! We're not releasing any information about the topic or the speaker, although we've already dropped a hint somewhere on this event page. 

This is all we're going to share: The lecture will be structured in three parts. Between each part the Comedy Spot’s improv comedy troupe will take the stage to perform hilarious improv scenes inspired by what you just heard in the lecture. It’s a night of mystery, murder?, laughs, and who knows what else. This lecture may include images and scientific discussions that some guests could find mildly... gross.

Come curious, learn something new, and have a great Sunday evening with Common Knowledge & The Comedy Spot! 

Sacramento Comedy Spot is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. It's Sacramento’s first comedy theater featuring improv, stand-up, and sketch comedy shows and classes. They serve beer, featuring a great selection of local and craft brews.

Common Knowledge is about bringing diverse people together to have a great time. We believe that grabbing a drink and learning something new is the best way to spend a night out.

The lecture will last for 45 minutes with 30 minutes for improv. The lecture is written for an intelligent, general audience so you don't need any science background to have a great time.
