A Bunch of Nerds

17/07/2024

As some of you may know, Billy Nichols Brand is leaving A Bunch Of Nerds to pursue new creative journeys.

And we as a team have decided that it would not be right to continue our creative journey without The Larry Bird of Action Figure collecting at the helm.

This team came through a cancer diagnosis and weathered a pandemic. We’re so proud of that.

July 26th will be our final episode of Unboxd. The channel has already been converted, but our content will still be available until September 1st.

Our team is still going to be creating, so make sure to follow Billy, Chris, Steve, John and Zero in their new creative journeys whatever they may be.

On behalf of our team, our family and friends.

Thank you for making our dreams come true. For sharing in our heartbreak and triumph, we love you all. And tearfully may we remind you…

WE WILL FOREVER BE A BUNCH OF NERDS, BECAUSE YOU ARE A BUNCH OF NERDS!

Hello friends,

Due to the events of PAX East this weekend, our usual Friday video this week will be delayed until next week as Billy is attending PAX!

If you're at the show, we ask that you stop and say hello to our Generalissimo as he is so excited to meet members of the ABON community ❤

Sometimes, we need to let the boss unplug and have fun. And trust us… he’s having the time of his life!

Have a lovely weekend and we will see you Friday the 30th!

A Statement from ABON Founder/President, Billy Nichols:

Today's news concerning the potential ban of TikTok in the United States is both concerning, and frustrating.

We here at A Bunch of Nerds come from different backgrounds, believe different things and identify different ways, but the one thing we all solely agree on is the freedom to create and reach those who seek our content.

Today's ruling from congress can potentially cause issues for us as a collective, as well as all content creators and small businesses from reaching larger audiences.

We stand with the content creation community, and look forward to a plausible resolution that will favor the protection of free speech.
