These are the stories that make us nerds. Geek Edition presents dispatches from the geek community, reporting on stories from the crossroads of fandom, pop culture, science, and more. Stories like the collector who went from seeking lunch boxes to preserving pinball machines; an endeavor that led him to forming a Star Wars church. Or the tea blender with a unique form of synesthesia that allows her to taste pop culture, and how she uses it to craft a flavorful cup of tea. And the acting troop that has taken their nerdy passions to the burlesque stage. Or the musicians transforming 8-bit video game songs into full symphonic concerts. This and so much more.
