Not my favorite anymore
This show has gone downhill. Maybe they’ve done episodes on all the interesting theorems or interviewed all the interesting guests they could get. And that percussion piece’s welcome wore out long ago. We get it, your kid is musically gifted. Get something relevant or interesting. And short. Nobody wants a long intro/outgrow anymore. Get to the content.

Very interesting theorems
Very neat theorems and many kinds of mathematicians.

Turned off from the beginning
What was that all about? The guest could have simply stated what it was about calculus that fascinated her and then given the Wikipedia example and that would have taken 3 minutes. The rest of the podcast is simply uninformative drivel. Thanks for wasting my time.

Good but
I enjoy this podcast but I just wished they wouldn’t open *every* episode by discussing the weather. It’s trite.

Learn Something New Each Episode
The hosts have on great guests, who do deep dives into their favorite theorems. The episodes range in accessibility, but there are interesting take aways from every episode.

Very approachable
I was pleasantly surprised that I was able to follow the math without any visual aids. For example, a case of Fermat’s “little” theorem was vividly explained using Pascal’s triangle and spinning prime-dimensional hypercubes, both examples boiling down to 2^p=1+1 mod p. Lovely!

New favorite podcast!
The first episode had a discussion of the Uniformization theorem, ice cream, and the Borsuk-Ulam theorem. Instant five star rating tbh

Great Initiative
Congratulations. This is great way to develop interest in mathematics
