Festival of the Spoken Nerd: You Can't Polish a Nerd
Fresh from their latest UK tour, Matt Parker, Steve Mould and Helen Arney have committed yet another comedy spectacular to a digital format. Packed full of science, songs and spherical geometry, the intrepid trio go further than ever to celebrate nerdiness in all its raw and unpolished glory. 'You Can't Polish a Nerd' is the third show from science comedy phenomenon Festival of the Spoken Nerd.
