  • Amazing mathematics podcast!!!! 😍🤩

    Interesting subjects and hosts with very soothing voices. Math is always something interesting to just think about, and this podcast provides me with things to think about when I’m awake at 3 a.m.

    PS: (Awash in Billboards) That sequence of numbers that the character on FRINGE was reciting was the Fibonacci Sequence.

  • Rediscover the fun of math

    Students, kids and even kids at heart will enjoy listening to this podcast because it doesn't ask you the boring math quiz questions like "solve for x if ...". You will rediscover the fun of learning math and using logic in answering the weekly puzzles!

  • Ace podcast

    One of my favourite podcasts. Each episode introduces a new puzzle and gives the solution to the previous one. The presenters have a good chemistry with the non-mathematician asking just the right questions to clarify the puzzles.

  • Chit-chatty

    Our hosts, while providing interesting information, like to chit-chat. Personally, I find it distracting. I'd prefer a bit of concise information or enlightenment without the social interchange.

    Great variety of topics. As an AP Calculus teacher I enjoy exploring the subject matter with my students and challenging them with the puzzles.

  • Great Puzzles to Feed the Brain

    A wonderful podcast. Short puzzles to make you think. I really enjoy the two hosts. Makes you feel that maybe the Ozark Mountains aren't a bad place to settle down. And do math. But the math is really easy and these guys make you feel smart.

  • Not Just For Mathletes

    This podcast will be loved by the math experts and the beginners alike. As an adult of only average mathematical ability, this podcast opened up doors for me, showing me that math is not abstract cryptic cave-paintings, but instead a logical and constant system of thinking. The two hosts are pleasant to hear and provide clarity and translation to concepts that were most likely explained poorly in one's past schooling. If you enjoy math, this is your podcast, but if you do not enjoy math, this... more
