He said in a March interview he could write a biography chapter about the rise and fall of Nerd HQ. He said in the interview he had a recent conversation with a producer about bringing Nerd HQ back.

Levi said hopes the event will return. He wants Nerd HQ and The Nerd Machine to be his legacy, the said.
“It’s something I really believe in, so much so that I have put a lot of my blood sweat and tears into it,” he said in the interview. “I’m turning it into a full non-for-profit, because I just want it to exist. I don’t need it to make money. I just need it to continue to be something that hopefully inspires people and, you know, raises money and awareness for non-profits outside of it and creates community.”
He said he plans to keep Nerd HQ going to provide community and leave a positive legacy.
“There’s so many people that I see on social media who have been very, very served by the community that Nerd Machine and Nerd HQ provided, and that’s the kind of thing that I want to leave, hopefully. When I’m out of this world, when we’re gone, the only thing that we have left is the impact – the positive impact – or, you know, sometimes unfortunately the negative impact that you leave. But I want to leave as much positive impact as I can before I’m off to wherever.”
