The Fray

In this episode we deal with greed, lust, violence and gore - you guessed it we are talking about religion! In telling the tale of the land of Evariste Galois it is imperative that some understanding of how Christianity got its start in the world of the pagan Gauls.  Even more importantly, at least as far as this podcast is concerned, is how much the Christian religion of the early Gallic people influenced the life and times of our tasty little Frenchman. Thanks. as always, for listening!

Here comes The Fray's first SUPERSIZED episode! We dig into the conquering of Gaul by way of unicorns, priests of Jupiter, more women named Julia than you can shake a stick. Along the way we raise three navies, are present for the invention of the book and find out where soap comes from.  Thanks for listening!

We change it up in this episode as we start to focus on the genesis of Galois' beloved France. Its a deep dive into prehistoric ultra marathon runners, porn as history, one of the darkest days in Roman history and how it call came down to a flock of geese. Also Happy one year anniversary to The Fray! Thanks as always for listening

Check out the latest episode in this series where we dive into a world of bespawlers, fopdoodles and fustylugs all in a effort to understand memes and how they helped pull algebra, kicking and screaming, into the modern world.

In this episode we cover saving someone's life, S&M orgies, Mongol invasions and the Bubonic plague. Good times!

**Updated episode** Sorry for those who already listened but this episode needed a better ending. So I made one. On this episode of the Fray we journey back to the Fertile Crescent in tracing the history of algebra, learn how it got its name and how it finally got firm ground to stand on in the world of mathematics. Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoy it.

In this episode we dive headlong into Alexander the Great and the city he founded, Alexandria. We learn all about crazy farting robots, the bloodlust of mathematics and we search for the cure for cancer. Enjoy!

In this episode we dive into the history of mathematics and learn all about sex beans, sexy decimals, Scorpion Kings and more aha moments that you can shake a ziggurat at. Enjoy!

In this episode we discuss poetry, entropy (again!), geology and try and figure out what the heck mathematics actually is.

We begin new series with a new topic, the short but fascinating life of 19th Century French mathematician Evariste Galois. This is the first episode in a multi part series that will journey to very wellspring of mathematical equations as well as the depths of depravity and terror that was the menacing French Revolution. All to get to the bottom of one of history's most remarkable and mysterious thinkers. So please join me as we enter to the fray-iest of frays with The Man Out of Time.
