Pull up those trousers and readjust your spectacles, the night of nights for the nerd community is back and more outrageously educational than ever. Your comrade Adam Spencer takes to the stage to introduce a bevy of his favourite Festival geeks including Australian YouTube star and nervous elevator-rider Natalie Tran, podcast host and perennial people pleaser PJ Vogt, Nobel-winning super scientist Peter Doherty, and the man behind 14-down and many other classic crossword clues, David Astle. Be amused, but not alarmed – the nerds are back and less concerned than ever about the world’s judgement.
