Historical Bias and Spooky Colorado History - Loren Hansen

Something to crow about: the accents of spooky birds - Isabelle Busch
Ravens, magpies, and jays are familiar birds in our Colorado backyards. But have you listened to what they’re saying? Turns out, these wide-ranging birds have accents. Now, range shifts are impacting not just their genetics, but their voices. Get ready to tune in to the spooky side!
afterparty -
Diebolt Brewing Company
Come hang with us after the show! We'll have free pizza to replenish all those calories your brain burned learning at Nerd Nite. Diebolt is just a five-minute walk (and an even shorter drive, with ample parking!) from the Bug. Not only do they have great beer, but they stay open late for us. Meet more of the Nerd Nite Denver community - we have just as much fun there as we do at the show!
