What more could be said about such an amazing movie? Well, @naewray helped us explore it mathematically, physically and… metaphysically? mathsat.co.uk/2023/05/maths-…

In today's podcast @naewray joins us to talk about Back To The Future! Did we choose this film because: a) it's chocked full of interesting time travel mathematics? or b) it's legitimately a great film? We'll let you decide -> mathsat.co.uk/2023/05/maths-…

Why is Easter when it is? Is the date drawn out of a random number generator by the Pope? Does the King declare Easter when he smells the first spring rain? Or is there an RIDICULOUS MATHEMATICAL ALGORITHM mathsat.co.uk/2023/03/maths-… @PodcastMathsAt returns with 🐰 Eastery Maths.

Great stuff. I am going to change my alarm clock on my phone now to @ThomasEWoolley saying "Squirrels! Squirrels!"

Here’s a tricksy little question from my niece’s homework. It’s always embarrassing when their “doctor of maths” uncle gets a maths question wrong!🙈 Have a go and see if you get it right first time. I’ll post the correct answer later.

I’m a math professor in a film: At work, my blackboard is full with a dozen completely unrelated equations and basic graphs. At home, I write on random pieces of glass. I am male and single. I wear shoulder pads and glasses. I am a socially inept nerd with a quirky sense of humor

I found out over the half term that Lord Nelson was about 5ft 6" but that his statue is 17ft 4". That's Horatio of about 3:1... #SJCMaths #BadMathsJokes Welcome back all!

I really like the film 21, and listened back with fond memories to @PodcastMathsAt review myself and @ThomasEWoolley did more than 5 years ago. How did 5 years happen? How bad was sound quality? Still it's a great show. I learnt a lot from younger me! mathsat.co.uk/2017/09/maths-…

Admire very much the effort of an amateur beach mathematician making the golden ratio in sand at massive scale. Not that phis is everything.

How the Prime Minister, daughter of a pure mathematician, once calculated π = 3.07, told us how to remember it, and thinks Maths should go from Geek to Chic. Liz Truss, Minister for Mathematics, from Geek to Chic ben-parker.co.uk/?p=195 @trussliz #Mathematics #FromGeekToChic

Three statisticians are hunting, and they come upon a deer. The first aims and overshoots. The second undershoots. The third then shouts, “We got him!” #SJCMaths #BadMathsJokes #NotSorry
