I work in tech, but at a university, so this will be more open than just co-workers. He doesn't have a specific topic he's speaking on, either. The university's political union brings in speakers to talk on whatever they like, usually announced shortly before the event or not at all, they do that and tell their life story some and then have an open Q&A. So... Extremely open. Everyone comes through. In the last year I saw Rachel Maddow and Frank Abignale, Jr. in the same format there, and last month they had Laverne Cox come in to speak, and right before that Joe Biden was in there addressing a crowd.
