    • Biggest number ever?
      Feb 16 2026

      Ever wondered what the biggest recognised number in mathematics is? Have a listen as we try to explain the concept of Rayo’s number.


      Thanks again to Numberphile on YouTube - their video on this sparked our interest and probably does a way better job of explaining it!

    • Why maps lie
      Jan 31 2026

      In this episode, Theo explains why no flat map can accurately show a round planet and why some countries look much bigger than they really are.


      Along the way, Mum realises that maps aren’t wrong on purpose — they’re making compromises for what has to change when the Earth is flattened.
