Charleston Nerd Nite is back and this lineup is *chef’s kiss*.
Join us for three gloriously nerdy talks:
For the Love of Dead Fishes
Take a deep dive into museum collections, preservation, and the surprising afterlife of fish.
Puppetry, the Orphan of the Arts
Puppets: beloved by children, feared by adults, and never given the artistic respect they deserve.
UFO Science: Sorry, It’s Probably Not Aliens
A pseudoscience skeptic takes on the mysteries in the sky, because someone has to be the buzzkill.
Each speaker gets 20 minutes to talk about their thing, with trivia between talks where you can finally cash in on all that completely unnecessary information you’ve accumulated over the years. Winners take home Nerd Nite swag. Respect of your peers, not guaranteed.
Cannon Distillery — 1734 Signal Point Rd.
7:00 PM
FREE
Get there early to grab a drink and a seat.
Honor the fish. Respect the puppets. Hold out hope for the aliens.
All nerds welcome. Be there and be square. 
Do you have questions like:
What does my future hold?
Are mushrooms secretly plotting against us?
And who is my crawdaddy?
Then do we have the Nerd Nite for you! We’ll be hearing talks about:
Divination for Anxious Primates: A Breif(ish) Anthropology of Tarot
Mycology for Smarties
Who is Yo Crawdaddy? The Secret Lives of Freshwater Lobsters
We start at 7 pm at our new location at Cannon Distillery. As usual, we will have trivia and swag to boot.
Be there and be square.
Nerd Nite is back on a new day and new location.
Thursday, September 10th we’ll be introducing three new speakers for 20 minute talks about the things that make their nerdy little hearts sing.
Daniel will be running trivia between talks and we’ll have Nerd Nite Charleston swag for the winning team. You can also buy your own copy of the Nerd Nite book How to Win Friends and Influence Fungi.
So come on down to Cannon Distillery at 1734 Signal Point Rd. We kick off at 7 pm so be there and be square!
Nerd Nite Charleston is back for our second show. We’ll be bringing you talks about wildlife forensics, password security, and fly fishing lures. So come on down to Frothy Beard Brewing Co. Friday, April 11th at 7:30 to nerd out and play some trivia along the way. Come early to grab a seat up front to be there and be square!
The snow shook up our line up but the nerdiness prevails! Come down to Frothy Beard February 7th for talks on Tales of the BOF from a marine scientist and talks from both of our Charleston Nerd Nite bosses on animal sexy time and steroid hormones. We’ll kick off at 7 pm and have useless trivia with mediocre prizes in between! See you all there!
Due to Charleston being full of bridges that don’t mix well with ice, we’re postponing our first show. I know. We’re sad too. But don’t worry! We’ve already locked in a new date. Come on out February 7th at 7pm to Frothy Beard Brewing Company and we’ll try this all over again. Til then friends.
Fellow nerds, we have our very first lineup confirmed. Come on out to Frothy Beard Brewing Company on February 7th for the first ever Nerd Nite Charleston kicking off at 7 pm. We’re going to be hearing about headless tunas from a marine forensic scientist, old shoes from a conservator-restorer, and weird animal sexy time from our very own evolutionary ecologist and Nerd Nite Boss, Daniel. We’ll also be having useless trivia in between speakers.
We’re working on getting our socials going but in the mean time you can follow @frothybeardbrewing on Instagram for updates about our shows.
Come on by and help us bring together the Charleston nerd community. Be there and be square.
Welcome to Nerd Nite Charleston! Our site is under construction but never fear! We have our first show booked. January 24th, 2025 we will be at Frothy Beard Brewing Company, dropping bits of knowledge you didn’t know you wanted (or maybe really didn’t want) starting at 7:00 pm. We’re just getting up and running here but tune back in for updates. Cannot wait to rock your socks off, Charleston.
