Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill! @TylerTheCreator drops the beat on our theme song.
In an interview with USA Today, Nye says, “Our hope is to present a scientific viewpoint on issues of society.” He reveals that the show will cover issues from global warming to topics that “have come into stark relief” since President Trump was elected.
Nye will conduct live experiments in front of a studio audience, and a list of high-profile celebs will serve as correspondents, like Karlie Kloss, and comedians Joanna Hausmann and Nazeem Hussain. Guests include Joel McHale, Martin Starr, Tim Gunn, and Steve Aoki.
Nye tells USA Today, “You’re not gonna change everyone’s mind, but maybe we can give people a nudge… It’s not magic; it’s science!”
