Tournament of Nerds on the Nerdist Channel

[Katai]

Hey, aspecialthing.

The comedy debate show Tournament of Nerds, started by Justin Donaldson and Hal Rudnick, made its debut on the Nerdist YouTube channel last Sunday. The show has been performing live for the last four years, first at Meltdown and now every third Saturday of the month at Upright Citizens Brigade, but now we're excited to partner with the Nerdist Channel and hit the Internet too.

We could use the eyeballs of some more comedy fans on the videos. Please subscribe, watch, vote, tell your friends, petition your local heads of state or whatever. The more views, the better it is for your fellow comedy nerds. The show includes the talented likes of:

Jonny Svarzbein
Mike Carlson
Dax Herrera
Maddox
Roger Barr
Jason Sheridan
Jensen Karp
Ron Babcock
Jordan Morris
Gina Ippolito
Asterios Kokkinos
Matt Manser
Alex Berg
Alex Fernie
Lesley Tsina
Allan McLeod
Nick Wiger as Skeletor
. . . and the list goes on. These people are your people.

Go to http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list...B&feature=plcp to watch the first two battles. Voting is still open for the second battle (Willy Wonka vs. The Goonies), so be sure to vote for who you think won, then "Like" the voting video you're taken to.

We'll also be performing around San Diego Comic-Con this weekend. (see http://tournamentofnerds.com/2012/07...ment-of-nerds/ for more info)

Thanks!

Love,
Lindsay Katai

The word 'nerd' used to be special, now it's like 'extreme' or 'pluralizing with a Z instead of an S'.

That being said, I will give your debate show a shot.

I promise the show is filled with real life, honest to goodness N3RDZ. Sorry, I mean "nerds."
