NO SUCH THING AS A FISH - Thundernerds
In 2014 Dan, James, Anna and Andy gathered around their microphones in QI’s Covent Garden office and made Episode 1 of No Such Thing As A Fish.
500 episodes and half-a-billion downloads later, the gang are heading Around the World to celebrate 10 years of podcasting with their Thundernerds tour, taking in venues across the UK and Ireland, as well as shows in Europe, Australia (returning to the iconic Sydney Opera House) and New Zealand.
Each Thundernerds show features a unique live recording of the podcast, where Dan, James, Anna and Andy share their four favourite facts from the previous seven days, as well as an all-new first half full of fun, facts and questionable puns.
NSTAAF said: ‘We can’t wait to get on the road again and celebrate a decade of dorkery with our loyal listeners. It may seem like we’ve been going forever, but Mick Jagger and Keith Richards are still touring after 62 years in the business, and we like to think of ourselves as the Rolling Stones of podcasting, but with more moss.’
Presented by Bohm Presents
