ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Welcome to Accessible Intellect! Expect the unexpected as we journey beyond traditional academia. While it is one of my goals to make intimidating topics like math and computer science more exciting for everyone, I’ll also talk about things like sports, cinema, and music in ways that you probably won’t find in popular media. Nothing is off-limits here; the world is our playground.
My mission is to reveal the simplicity in the seemingly complex, and the complexity in the seemingly simple. This is going to be fun.
