The Man in the Lab Coat » Simon Barber http://labcoatman.com.au Ben McKenzie: scientician, actor, comedian and Graeme Garden look-a-like Thu, 19 Apr 2012 09:00:00 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/ Planet Nerd http://labcoatman.com.au/2007/06/planet-nerd/ http://labcoatman.com.au/2007/06/planet-nerd/#comments Tue, 05 Jun 2007 03:15:45 +0000 Ben http://www.labcoatman.com.au/blog/?p=50 This is a heads up to those of you in Melbourne that this Thursday, June 7, is the premiere of Planet Nerd, a new variety show hosted by Dan Walmsley covering everything geeky, nerdy and interesting – and featuring me! It’s true – geek is chic, nerd is the new cool, and you can dive right in to a whole geeky universe of fun with Planet Nerd! The first episode features one man’s tale of anguish over the iPhone, the Weekly Whedon with Simon Barber, and the real deal with roleplaying conventions in a documentary presented by yours truly, Ben McKenzie, kickin’ it live on location.

Planet Nerd screens at 10pm on Thursdays from June 7 to August 30 on Channel 31 in Melbourne. If you’re not in Melbourne, you can still get a taste by hitting the Planet Nerd web site at http://planetnerd.tv and checking out some of the clips we’ve posted on the Interweb.

Hope you all had a lovely World Environment Day on Tuesday – I spent mine at CERES 25th birthday!
