Our first podcast is now online! A word of warning though it does use a few naughty words.
Bright Club: Breaking Boundaries
Sarah Castor-Perry interviews Sam Gregson and Hayley Frend about their work, before we hear their Bright Club sets with music provided by Jonny Berliner.
I just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who donated to our charity of choice at the Geek Cabaret.
I'm sorry it has taken so long, but I've finally got around to squaring the accounts and the final figure is a tidy sum of £227.20 for Squeaky Gate. The cheque will be in the post to them in the next few days.
Once again, THANK YOU!
I'm pleased to announce the next training session on Friday will be 4th May at 3:30pm. The venue will to be a room within the Pitt Building and I will clarify which one before the event.
The session won't take longer than 2 hours and it's not just a talk, we'll go through some actives on how to to make things funny and how comedy works, the ideas behind writing jokes and what goes in to a set a Bright Club . When you leave you should have everything to need to deliver a Bright Club set or add humour to your own talks. I will also be looking for some people to fill the remaining spots for as our Bright Club on 11th May, where we get academics/post docs/PhDs and undergrads to give 7-8 minute humorous talk on their work..
Please let me know ASAP if you can attend, taking part in the training results in no obligation to actually do an event so do come along and see what it is all about.
If you could please forward the following to any lists or individuals who you think would be interested I would be very grateful.

Anything (within the bounds of fire regulations, health & safety, ethical codes of conduct and the Geneva Convention) goes!
A evening of Science demos, stand-up comedy and live music.
