\textsc{Abstract:}
This will be an organizational meeting for this new seminar. Please bring or send your time constraints.

Time premitting I will also give a short survey talk:
Uniformly recurrent subgroups and groups with a trivial amenable radical that fail to be $C^*$-simple. In this I will describe the new construction by Adrien Le-boudec of such groups, following the criterion for $C^*$-simplicity by Kalantar-Kennedy.
