This week, Jacob and Igor swap the usual news breakdown for a complete taxonomy of AI boosters within the framing of a tier list. They run through every type, from the good-faith genuine enthusiast to the denial-prone deflector, the financially captured, corporate power-players, platform builders, and finally the model-building true believers. They also get into "crit-hype," the idea that some critics are inadvertently boosting the systems they're fighting against. No muck to separate this

In the second episode of the second series of On A Tangent, Carlo speaks to Elisabetta Mazzolari. She is a doctoral researcher at the Institute of Mathematical Stochastics and works in the field of probability theory. In the podcast, she explains what led her from Pavia via Delft to Münster, and what she does to clear her head.

In the 60th episode of “In the Interim…”, Dr. Scott Berry, Dr. Nick Berry, and Dr. Joe Marion discuss how Berry Consultants uses AI in clinical trial design and software development. The conversation addresses current applications, limitations, implications for productivity, and the ongoing need for human expertise in clinical trial design. The team examines both promising use cases and the risks associated with security, compliance, and AI-generated statistical work.Key HighlightsAI is

What does it actually mean for a number to be “big”? In this episode of Breaking Math, Autumn chats with mathematician Richard Elwes to explore how huge numbers reveal the limits of human intuition, language, and even mathematics itself. The discussion moves from exponential growth in pandemics and finance to numbers larger than the universe itself, emerging in games like chess and abstract possibility spaces. Finally, it reaches one of the most profound ideas in modern mathematics: that there are

What does real math instruction actually look like in a classroom?Sometimes it looks messy.Students are moving, talking, comparing strategies, and solving problems together. To an outside observer, it might look like students are off task—but in reality, deep mathematical thinking is happening.In this episode of Tier 1 Interventions, we explore why powerful math instruction can be misunderstood during classroom observations and why responsive teaching often looks different from traditional

In this episode of "In the Interim…", Dr. Scott Berry and Dr. Nick Berry investigate how futility in clinical trials and stopping rules in sports illuminate very similar decision problems, albeit with very different consequences. Drawing from baseball’s 10-run rule, tournament cuts in golf, the discussion confronts traditional and Bayesian strategies for interim decisions. The episode explains why simulation, not historical trial review, provides the empirical backbone for futility

In this episode we sit down with Sheamus McGovern, founder of the Open Data Science Conference (ODSC AI), to unpack what AI actually looks like. Sheamus shares what’s really happening behind the scenes of the AI boom and why the biggest shift isn’t job loss, but a complete transformation of skills. From explaining why AI is reshaping—not replacing—jobs, to breaking down the gap between hype and real-world applications, this conversation explores how early algorithmic trading foreshadowed today’s AI

Send us Fan Mail We talk with Professor Clemency Montelle all about her work decoding the mathematics of ancient manuscripts. In a wide-ranging discussion, we cover some of the concepts that first arose in India, hear about a mentor who hosted meals based on ancient recipes, and learn how important cultural and historical context is for the questions that mathematicians ask. While she was at the INI, Professor Montelle delivered the Kirk Lecture for the Modern History of Mathematics Programme...

現在的人，常常沒有空閒–忙著工作，忙著家庭，忙著學業，或者靠著3C產品的幫助忙著填滿任何一點的空閒。雖然生活過得去，但我們還是覺得有些莫名的失落，不太清楚自己的方向，或感到些疏離與萎靡。也許我們還沒有覺察到自己–以為是自己的選擇，其實可能只是習以為常；以為自主的決策，其實是跟著大家走。可以這樣，但也有很多人不是這樣，而 意圖 可能是這樣差異的關鍵。歡迎收聽 分享指教

this podcast is inspired by Silke Stroh’s Gaelic Scotland in the Colonial Imagination explores the historical and cultural positioning of the Scottish Highlands within a (post)colonial framework from 1600 to 1900. The text examines how the anglophone mainstream constructed the Gaelic-speaking population as a barbaric "Other" to justify internal civilizing missions, linguistic suppression, and political integration into the modern British state. Stroh argues that Scotland occupied a complex, J...

This particular episode, contrasts two ancient worldviews that still shape how we listen today. First, the ancient Greeks: they believed music was a moral technology. Pythagoras discovered that harmonic intervals follow simple mathematical ratios, and Plato concluded that the wrong rhythm could destabilize an entire society. The Greeks built a top‑down, prescriptive system—Dorian modes for courage, Lydian modes for decadence, and mathematically “pure” scales that sometimes sounded rigid but k...

In this episode of "In the Interim…", host Dr. Scott Berry undertakes a detailed, methodical critique of ICH-E20 draft guidance language as applied to adaptive clinical trial design. Focusing on an innocuous but corruptible paragraph in Section 3.1, Scott scrutinizes the logic behind regulatory reluctance to appreciate multiple or complex adaptations in confirmatory trials. Drawing on extensive experience, he highlights how such restrictive interpretations do not reflect practical

What if a ballet could start a war? In May 1913, the Parisian premiere of Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring erupted into full-blown chaos—evening gowns torn, hat pins brandished as weapons, duels fought at dawn. But why would civilized people riot over a dance? This podcast is a kinetic deep dive into 10,000 years of human movement, from prehistoric cave paintings to the glittering stages of modern theater. Hosts guide listeners across ancient Egypt's funerary processions, where lethal stick-fi...

In this special book club episode of 'The Mathematicians Podcast', I sit down with author, maths communicator, and museum learning consultant, Thomas K. Briggs. Join us for a glass of wine and a deep dive into Tom's book, 'The Mathematicians Library', a title so intriguing it was a must-have for the show. This 'Injectives' sub-series episode is a one-to-one conversation; today exploring the vast history of mathematical literature. Discover the oldest book in Tom's personal collection and unravel the

How do we create a STEM classroom that supportsall learners? We speak with Dr Matthew Harrison about the challenges neurodivergent students canencounterin STEM learning environments, and the practical, achievable adjustments teachers can make to build more neuro-affirming classrooms. Matthew also shares insights from theNext Level Collaborationproject,showing how cooperative video games can build social confidence for neurodivergent students while also strengthening confidence and connection in STEM
