The Church of Classic Rock Join the Reverend Jeff Smith for an acknowledgement of just how far some of us have come as long-time inhabitants of the title of geek! Today, July 13th, is "National Embrace Your Geekiness Day," and the Reverend will do just that! Having been a geek his entire life, he's uniquely qualified to look at the etymological origins of the terms used as labels for people like us, explore what being a "geek" in the 21st century actually means, what the difference between a "geek" and a "nerd" actually is, who the 'royalty' of geek culture are, and the Rev'll tell you the story of how his father recognized, and nurtured, a true geek!
