* ''Series/KeyAndPeele'' The "How Old-Timey Anthropologists Got Laid" sketch involves two British explorers regaling one-another with tails of their exploits, which mostly involve native tribes performing various sexual acts on them, acts which become increasingly preposterous the longer each explains. They each rationalize their behavior as necessary because the tribe's "the local custom" and they don't want to contaminate the tribe with outside influence.

This is where you'll find the LadyOfAdventure, AdventurerArchaeologist, GreatWhiteHunter and GentlemanAdventurer all hanging out when they aren't out doing dangerous things. There's probably a bar, a roaring fireplace, and lots of easy chairs for people to sit around in. Expect animal heads and African masks hanging on the walls in terms of décor, as well as lots of globes and maps. (Possibly a library full of them.) Often the site of a FramingStory, with one person sharing stories about his latest adventure and the others listening. Especially common in works set in the Victorian or Edwardian eras or a SteamPunk universe, but they can be found elsewhere.

* ''Literature/AboveTheTimberline'' features the Polaris Geographic Society, whose members present themselves as dashing explorers bravely leading expeditions into the frigid wastes to recover the lost technology and knowledge of the old world. Their headquarters are furnished with impressive artifacts and equipment from their most famous missions, and the membership in the Society provides access to funding and supplies that would be impossible to wrangle otherwise. But under that veneer the [=PGS=] is a boy's club whose members are largely self-serving egoists jockeying to get their names in the headlines. When Wesley Singleton approaches them about mounting an expedition to rescue his stranded father Galen Singleton (a prominent PGS member himself), none of the current members are willing to lend a hand.
