Sorry everyone, but this past week Samuel Hansen was on vacation and was not able to record a new interview. This would normally mean no audio for you, but he has been putting together a series of videos about the Mathematical History of Nottingham that he recorded while there last November. What you will hear on today’s podcast is a teaser from those videos. Hope you like it. Also go watch the videos(Or Watch them below the download link)
