For the 50th episode of Combinations and Permutations we are going to try something completely different, and it is going to include sketches. Cody Palmer, Juan mariscal, and Samuel Hansen sat around a couple weeks ago and wrote some sketches and what follows is the unedited version of Juan’s version of a sketch called Kronecker’s Intervention. Enjoy!
Samuel Hansen welcomes Sean Najera into the Combinations and Permutations fold and brings back Eric Everstine and manages to pronounce his name correctly on the first try. The reason that Samuel did this amazing thing was to discuss the wonderful topic that is pseudomathematics.
Even though there commentary on pseudomathematics was beyond reproach, you, the listeners, may want to read some more on the subject so here are some links to more information:
