If you’ve got eight hours to invest, check out Serial Productions’ latest offering, The Trojan Horse Affair. Without giving anything away… it’s good.
But long.
So if you’ve got only 15 minutes, listen to Math and Musings.
You’re welcome.

For some time now I have looked forward to reading Milo Beckman’s Math without Numbers.
You know what?
I like numbers.
And without the numbers…
it’s just not the same.
The Olympics, the Pro Bowl, and the NHL’s All-Star weekend.
That was the weekend, and I expected this to be the order of popularity.
First, the world’s oldest sporting contest and most celebrated spectacle in all of human competition.
And two events from Vegas.
The winner?
Hands down the NHL, embracing Vegas in its skills contests, and basically thumbing its nose (again) at the Olympics its players have eschewed.
That’s like some social media-level dissing right there.
Wow.
Vegas style.
Kudos, NHL!
About a year ago my local high school changed its school nickname from a politically-incorrect Civil War reference to the more generic “Captains.”
This week my local NFL team changed its politically-incorrect nickname (well, the one they had before they had no nickname) to the generic “Commanders.”
I’m pretty sure the local community college will be renamed something like the Chief Petty Officers any day now.
A palindrome is not a palindrome.
Let the record show that despite alternate decisions being made by some of my musical colleagues I have decided to continue selling my music on Spotify and other streaming services.
Working five days in a row?
Whoa.
It’s been a while, but somehow I ended up doing it this week.
In a word, it ain’t easy.
And twelve degrees outside ain’t helping.
The second-worst month of the year is the 30 days following Christmas.
We’ve made it through.
Unfortunately the worst month of the year is the 30 days after that.
Shoot.
Was this the greatest weekend of pro football of all time or what?
Wow.
Four games decided by a total of 15 points.
I was happy with the results of all of them… until the Buffalo game went into overtime. But damn what a game.
And this is why the NFL owns the country.
Hey, remember when they closed the schools with zero snow on the ground?
(Pause for effect.)
And then made the same mistake two days later!
