EPISODE 139 | A Numbers Game: Mathspiracies
Guest: Gary Arndt, writer and host of the Everything Everywhere Daily podcast
We aren't really very good with numbers, so naturally we've come up with a lot of wacky ideas about them. Gary Arndt talks about numbers of all sorts, like why Pi is stupid, why prime numbers are cool, why the Fibonacci sequence isn't all that, when math leads to murder and much more.
