13. The Cardano Awakens

We meet an Italian mathematician who played a huge role in Fermat and Pascal’s Unfinished Game and whose drive shaft is still in use in modern vehicles!  In this episode, we’ll attempt to answer the following questions: Does hair really have a life of its own?     How can you get a girl in ten…or two…days?  What do either of these have to do with math? Let us know your thoughts.  Follow us on Facebook or email us at [email protected].  For math and the research behind the episode, visit our webpage at www.infinitelyirrational.com We look forward to hearing from you!
