We all know learning is more fun when you’re drinking with friends. Thus, Nerd Nite is a monthly event held in 100+ cities (like Tokyo, Miami, London, Fargo, and New York) during which folks give 20-minute fun-yet-informative presentations across all disciplines – while the audience drinks along! Must be 21 or older to attend this event.
November’s presentations include:
That Pie Girl Amy Watson-Bish:
Ever start a harmless hobby and suddenly you’re elbows-deep in flour, winning state fairs, and collaborating with breweries? “That Pie Girl” Amy Bish has. And she’s ready to explain herself.
That Time I Did A Presentation on Isekai with Andrew Simpson:
Isekai is a particularly saturated anime/manga genre these days. How did it start? What constitutes an isekai? In an endless wave of trash titles, how do certain isekai stories manage to stand out?
The true story of “Squanto” and the first Thanksgiving with Mike Riley:
“The Pilgrims arrived in New England, and after a harsh winter were saved from starvation by Squanto, the friendly, english-speaking Indian”. That’s the story we were told in school, but there’s more to know about Tisquantum, a man who escaped enslavement to find his people wiped out, and whose ambitions led to the first permanent settlement of Europeans in post-Colombus America.
