Dear Global Nerds and Friends of Nerds,

In upholding our solemn vow to only send you two or three emails each year, here's our first one of 2025. Enjoy our nerdy goings-on!:

• Nerd Nite turns 22 this month! Over the years we've brought you more than 25,000 presentations!..

• ...Which means we added new videos to our Nerd Nite YouTube channel so you can be in your PJs while enjoying presentations about the science of the hangover, preserving home movies on VHS, and SO much more.

• We're trying out our third ever new show in Los Angeles this Sunday February 16, 2025. Three Spreadsheets to the Wind in LA brings three story tellers on stage to talk about a spreadsheet they made for personal use (in this case, to plan an EV road trip, calculate Stardates, and figure out the mean). Excel + Drinks +Storytelling!

• Find our full global Nerd Nite events calendar here including new locales like Charleston, SC and Hudson Valley, NY.

• Our delightful debut book, How to Win Friends and Influence Fungi, made a bunch of 2024 best-of lists.

• Merch! T-shirts. Sweatshirts. Other stuff. Nerd Nite merch!

Fun!

Matt
