I recommend splitting your meetups into “mainly social” vs “mainly actually doing exercises towards improving rationality”
As with many things, people split into “actually want to do some work towards this” vs “mainly want to hang with like-minded people and enjoy myself” (neither of which is a problem)… but keeping the activities separate so that those that want to work on each can self-select, worked much better than trying a mixture of the two.
