Something Worth Knowing

A Complexly benefit. Curiosity builds understanding, and understanding builds a better world. Come build a better world with us.

Something Worth Knowing is the first-ever in-person event benefiting Complexly and our impactful educational mission. Complexly has been creating free educational content - SciShow, Crash Course, PBS Eons, Bizarre Beasts, and more - for nearly 15 years (and 6.3 billion views!). This year, we transitioned to a 501c3 non-profit, and this is our first in-person benefit show.

At Something Worth Knowing, friends of Complexly, like Mark Rober, Katie Mack, Simone Giertz, and more, will share inspiring talks about what makes them hopeful and join Hank Green on stage for interactive discussions.
