The folks at @ccemcanada are getting in the holiday spirit by creating a teeny-tiny gingerbread house on top of a teeny-tiny snowman. Together, both decorations are hardly taller than a human hair. https://t.co/8fFc9RSDBA

Not one, but TWO wild animals made spontaneous appearances at November's Science Slam. Check out our youtube channel to see! Spoiler: neither was a penis fish

@pintofscienceCA @SciSlamYYC My favorite joke, which luckily came with an explanation. The bartender asks, "What will you have", A Tachyon walks into a bar

Great night at Wurst for @SciSlamYYC!

Good hosts & fabulous talent rocked the stage last night! Here's a clip from a song about Phineas Gage - the man that survived a iron rod going through his brain - by Trevor Day!
