[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe you can geek out about it at work? One of my employees is a meteorology nerd and loves things like that. Every week he has "Tom's Tidbits" (not his real name, the real phrase he uses is funnier) and he tells us something that's going on for about a minute. Everyone on my team likes it, so we use it like an icebreaker for our small staff meeting. He's talked about things like why it's called a Blue Moon, meteor showers, months and days that are named after phases of the moon. [/quote]

Sounds like he’s into astronomy, not meteorology. [/quote]

🤷🏻‍♀️ they’re related somewhat, especially the moon (pull and tides) and solar flares.

I love programs like Science Friday. It’s great to have digestible, macro-level science content for laypeople, that’s high level and smart enough to keep you intellectually engaged but not SO deep in the arithmetic.

I like the idea of letting people take turns to geek out about their interesting topic. People love to learn, and also love to go on about whatever it is they’re obsessed with and have it be socially acceptable. Unlike Sheldon and his Fun with Flags vexillology class 🤣[/quote]
