Mathematician Karl Weierstrass was born #OTD, Halloween, in 1815. 🧪 🎃
The fools at The Academy all said he was mad, but he showed them all in 1872 when he announced that he had created a MONSTER. Let's learn about the terrible thing he did.

I was invited by my pal @bwecht.bsky.social to be on his podcast LEIGHTON NIGHT and it was an absolute HOOT.
You can hear it (Episode #287) on most platforms, but you can also *see* us goof off in the video version by subscribing to their Patreon (cheap!)

At least some of you know me via the little radio show I do or my label. That show turns 20 next month.
If it's meant something to you or your kids, I'd love to hear from you for inclusion on the show. I'll also donate to flood relief for each submission. Some history and how to get in touch:
