Being Right

Being right is more addictive than chocolate, sex, and cocaine. So we’re making being wrong feel JUST AS GOOD.

Welcome to BRA (Being Right Anonymous), where we admit we're powerless over our need to be right. This is an interactive comedy intervention—using live music, neuroscience, and audience experiments to treat your ego addiction.

Step 1: Realize your brain chemistry makes being right feel too orgasmic.
Step 2: Surrender to experiments that will reveal you know less than you think.
Step 3: Be entirely ready to have musicians score your existential uncertainty.
Step 4: Confess your wrongness publicly.

Hey, we’re all addicts here and music is the MRI. Remember, being wrong isn’t a relapse, it’s a breakthrough.

Presented by Fugues Media

Hosted by Gabriel Berezin
Live music by Sam Mejias
Produced by Jen Ng and Monty Montan

Gabriel Berezin
Gabe is a writer, musician, and performer with three original indie rock albums and extensive touring experience. Holding a cognitive neuroscience degree, he merged his passions into Fugues, a podcast using music to explain neurological phenomena. Blending science and comedy, it’s best described as Bill Nye meets Bill Burr.

Jen Ng
"It's probably my enthusiasm, not talent, that's gotten me to where I am in life," says Jen in an interview that doesn't exist. Born to immigrant parents who blew their cash on home karaoke machines, Jen often practiced in front of an imaginary audience while home alone, singing along to No Doubt and 4 Non Blondes. This behind-the-scenes practice now brings her to Caveat to “work the crowd” at Being Right.

Sam Mejias
Sam Mejias is a multi-instrumentalist, sound designer and multimedia producer. He teaches Sound Art in the MFA program in Fine Arts at Parsons School of Design.

Monty Montan
As a stylist, performer, model, and voice actor, Monty shapes wardrobe, language, and imagery for performers and experiences through the art of paying attention. She nosedives into the human experience to feel it fully and translate it into creative expression—raw, real, and with plenty of flair.
