The co-host of "Star Talk" with Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson, he will explain how the universe is created, if we're screwed and what actually is dark matter. Or not. But you will laugh and satisfy your deep nerdy thoughts in good company. Catch Chuck live before his new special, "Just Smart Enough" is released.
