Kyne Santos, a drag queen and mathematics educator living in Canada, is a big fan of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. Also hiking.

Jeremy Alm likes the Rado graph, a weird object that captures all sorts of interesting properties of finite graphs. Also cheese.

Robin Wilson likes the Hopf Index Theorem and we agree. Also, hot fudge.

Kate Stange is a number theorist who loves quadratic forms (and who doesn't, really). Her favorite theorem is the bijection between them and...

Karen Saxe is an analyst who spends her days representing mathematics on Capitol Hill. She really likes the isoperimetric inequality and its...

Corrine Yap loves math, graph theory in particular, and also loves to perform her one-person play about Sonya Kovalevskaya. Also, tofu.

Allison Henrich studies knots and her favorite theorem is about how one might unknot a knot. Also, music.

We all know the (probably apocryphal) story of Gauss adding up the first 100 positive integers as a child. Well, Tom Edgar really likes this...

Tatiana Toro is a geometer and therefore loves the ur-theorem of geometry, "due" to Pythagoras. She also likes to walk.

Gresham Professor of Geometry Sarah Hart likes cycloids and we talk at length about all their fascinating properties. Also, Moby Dick (or Th...

Euler's polyhedral formula continues to amaze Matthew Kahle as he finds it showing up in different places in mathematics. Also, Bach.

Kevin visited Texas Christian University in March and recorded this episode with some math students. Excellent theorems and pairings.

Cihan Bahran has a popular twitter feed in which he shares surprising theorems. His favorite? Matrix mortality is undecidable.

Juliette Bruce is an algebraic geometer who loves to think about embedding curves in projective space. Also mountaineering.

Technically this is a theorem, but it seems so obvious that it's unclear that it needs a proof. In this episode Christopher Danielson points...

Kimberly Ayers likes dynamics and so obvs her fave theorem is Sharkovskii's result that "period 3 implies chaos." Also taffy.

Philip Ording wrote a cool book (you should check it out) and he likes the Erlangen Program. Not really a theorem, but we're not purists aro...

Daina Taimina is famous for her adventures in mathematical crocheting, but her favorite theorem comes from Desargues. She also likes to trav...

Tien Chih loves combinatorics, which means he really loves proving things by induction. In this episode we have a good time learning about t...

We are joined by a group of math students at Cal State University in Los Angeles for a diverse collection of theorems and pairings.
