About this episode
RHLSTP #598 - Bitten by a Bullet Ant - Richard is back at the Podcast Room with rapidly returning guest and mathematical whizz-man Matt Parker. They chat about what you have to do to get an asteroid named after you, breaking Rubik’s Cube and Space Invaders World Records (plus tips on how to play the game), whether your own dog is more important than a child you don’t know, the best possible name for a labrador, how Matt ended up in the UK and went from being a maths teacher to a maths entertainer, whether Matt Parker is a showbiz enough name, trying to scientifically quantity pain, whether all maths is wrong, why pi keeps cropping up in unexpected places (including the moon) and having a wedding ring made out of meteorite.
