“Listened to the 6 handshakes episode, the audio editing was so terrible it was unlistenable - long stretches of silence, phrases stitched together forming incoherent statements, overlapping voices... won’t be listening to any more.”

“There aren't a plethora of mathematics podcasts, but this one certainly is good. I would appreciate it if there were more technical expositions available. I would like to be able to listen to the experts freely speak of techniques that they use, however, this seldom happens.
On the whole...”Read full review »

“This podcast talks about how math is applied in the real world, for example, in politics (gerrymandering) or in a more "social" context, like the impact of race on the rate of police searches. Usually has good interviews with interesting people in the domain. If I'd have to pick a favorite bit of...”Read full review »

“When a child goes through school, their exposure to math as field is, in actuality, is incredibly small, and, unfortunately, many grow up believing that is all math is. Relatively Prime seeks to change that. From understanding the 4th dimension to the creation of art through math, or more aptly...”Read full review »

“As a math major, I've been trying to find a podcast about math that isn't about teaching math.
Favorite equation is lim of (1 + 1/n)^n as n -> infinity”Read full review »

“Sam does a great job of telling Math-related stories in a way that makes you feel like you can hang, even if you haven’t done any math since high school. It’s a smart show that entertains and informs and I defy anyone to listen to an ep and then try to make the argument that math isn’t interesting!”
