Nerd Nite Global Festival

Boozy lecture series Nerd Nite reprises its greatest hits for this weekend-long fest. Listen to brainiac talks on sex, snakes and Star Wars while you chug free beer. You can also compete in trivia, games and Drunk Science (Sat 17 7:30–10pm), where Radiolab producers and Popular Science editors will judge humorous audience presentations about famous inventions.
