What’s a-Happening Down at the Nerdist Theater?

Answer: almost too much.
If you thought the weekly installment of Meltdown with Jonah Ray and Kumail Nanjiani was awesome, how about Dan Harmon’s Harmontown (he’s more than just the showrunner for Community), Battleship Pretension LIVE w/Kyle Kinane, and even a musical!?!? Yes, it’s all happening at the Nerdist Theater.
It’s almost too much (emphasis on “almost”).

BAMF! Don’t miss this as I’m sure James Pumphrey will be in post world-premiere form.
