Our Team

Our Team

Our dedicated team members all know what it feels like to attempt standup comedy for the first time. We believe in the power of humor to break down barriers and speak from a century of combined outreach experience. What first began as an experimental grassroots program has since grown into a cadre of professionals from the unique crossroads of science communication and comedy.

We’ve distilled years of experience in organizing, recruiting, hosting, and producing live science programming into simple to follow guides and checklists. Advertising? No problem. Nerdy music playlist? We have that too. Whether you are a motivated citizen or science institution, we can help you grow an enthusiastic science community in your hometown.
