What’s this? Multimedia? Whatever next?

What you are about to click is an audio extravaganza: a mathematical conversation between me and Dave Gale, who is @reflectivemaths on twitter. It’s the first episode of Wrong, But Useful.

Mentioned in this podcast:

The Maths/Maths podcast (with Samuel Hansen and Peter Rowlett) - currently on hiatus

TES Maths Podcast (with Craig Barton)

Festival of the Spoken Nerd podcast

All Squared (with Katie Steckles and Christian Perfect)

A list of the 10 coolest numbers

And the competition questions (don’t phone, it’s just for fun):

  • What’s the title of the podcast all about?
  • What’s the history of gradians?
  • Why is the volume of a pyramid $\frac{1}{3}x^2h$?
