I just listened to an episode of nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyqpqd874qy5g6ws7q8eq66zrusmf8hqzrklqvguvzrc6ckqg6m7t9nyqz93vpd (nprofile…3vpd) (German math podcast) by nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyqpqs5c7rschktajjsfwpaxk3pxqrm0ux7aexxdensga56x3q3kdhdeswq8dut (nprofile…8dut) for the first time. The episode circled around the question of the probability of a generic triangle to be acute (as it often happens in probability theory, there are a number of ways to make this question precise). nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyqpqs5c7rschktajjsfwpaxk3pxqrm0ux7aexxdensga56x3q3kdhdeswq8dut (nprofile…8dut) spent most of the time giving some intuitive descriptions of various moduli spaces of triangles and he did such a great job. I think 90% of the episode should be accessible to good high school students but there were always small side remarks so that someone with a little more experience in mathematics could figure out a more precise/more conceptual way to think about what was just said. It is usually really hard for me to follow mathematical reasoning without seeing it written down, but the podcast was so well-structured that it was really easy to listen to it and relax when I went home from work today.
