James Grime is one of my absolute favorite mathematicians, and Brian Brushwood is one of my absolute favorite rogues and magicians, so of course I'm subscribed to both of you
As a mathematician, this is one of my favourite types of conversion. When you get to geek out and explain stuff to someone who is interested in maths but is still a relatively lay person :)
@@donaldblevins2555 I'm always happy to chat maths, although the practicalities are a bit more tricky in TH-cam comments! If you want to find out more cool stuff, I thoroughly recommend Numberphile, thesingingbanana and Standupmaths :)
"Theoretically, you could calculate pi purely by just watching the trendline as you drop millions and millions of needles." Someone get Matt Parker on the phone!
@@pewlitzer4251 he's not a doctor, but he does have the Australian version of a Knighthood, more or less. Queen Liz 2.0 gives knighthoods and MBE's to British people, and for Australian people they have the same thing but they're uniquely for Australians only. And Brady has got one of those, even though all the work he's famous for was done in the UK, so he could have very justifiably received the British one instead. But yeah.
@@duffman18 He has an honorary doctor from the University of Nottingham: th-cam.com/video/Bxfds5KP1Z4/w-d-xo.html . My comment was in reference to a conversation he had on the "Hello Internet" Podcast with CPG Grey, where he mentioned that he teases his sister with the title. So yeah.
I found this channel in my feed this week because I saw Dr. Grime on the thumbnail. Love Numberphile, and I'm loving your work too Brian. Watched several hours of videos this week to get up to date. Still got a ways to go.
Love both these guys I am 35 and have been watching scam school since the beginning and am pumped how it has evolved into Scam Nation. His videos I really feel reach out to a group of people that not a lot of TH-camrs try and reach with there videos and content.
That was a fantastic episode. I loved the interview and the parallels between the magic and the math (or maths ;-) ) Also, he has an Enigma Machine!?! That is freaking awesome. I geeked out at that part of the interview.
Loved this. Been an adult educator for a few years and have had the opportunity to attend one of James’ codebreaking workshops (ifs great btw) The best part is that students see the transformation of a Maths from the chicken nugget guy (or the three towns problem) to something a bit deeper. It’s often a gateway to show that Maths is something more than equations and abstract. I’m sure every person who loves Maths has experienced that moment where they were absorbing information and realised that but for time and place they had all the tools to have discovered it themselves. I think this is the essence of what makes Maths and ‘Magic’ intersect.
I am following Numberphile, first because of Matt Parker, but man I like all the people on there. And I have been following Dr Brushwood since... Forever...
Having recently gone back in the archive and watched one of your old videos I am glad for the reduction in the amount of hair gel involved in this channel... :D
When I got the notification I saw "Grimes" and thought: "Oh, he got that guy from walking dead. that's cool" Then i clicked the video and said: "Oh sh't! That's the guy from numberphile! F'in awesome!"
Numberphile has done a number of other videos on divisibility tricks that describe other patterns other than the 9 trick. @19:03 I think there is also a Numberphile video on calculating Pi via tooth picks :)
It was amazing listening to two people so eager and entrenched into their craft enjoy time together like this. Also, I feel silly that I was so easily jump scared by the cut to a BSOD
Definitely an overlap of viewers. I've been a fan of ScamSchool/Numberphile for years. I actually found SS through the puzzles/math-type videos, and I think Np was suggested as a result of watching so many math-ish scams haha ;). Word play, number play, cryptograms (which I guess are both?)...I love it. On a related note, I would love to see a video on SS on the usage of mathematical card stacks that aren't Si Stebbins/CHaSeD order. Similarly, I would be thrilled to see a numberphile vid going in detail on the maths behind such stacks/why they work with such tricks/adaptations etc.... Just throwing out there....
Only six minutes in (and watched the previous video too), I'm just itching for them to say the words "Brady Haran" so I can giggle to myself about "ambitious crossover event" and the like :P
10:27 This has to be the best ad for a sponsor I've seen so far. Nice and creepy. 10/10 would buy. (I don't have much choice since it's a mandatory website anyway *snicker*)
“Oh, Teller once said in a letter he wrote to me....” You smooth fox, Brian, you!!! Also, Brian, you mentioned the story about how to “swoop in and be the best chess player in town...” and the possible methods. Building on this, you really should lcheck out (pun intended), a video that’s on TH-cam by Derren Brown, from a few years back. Basically, he has a circle of about 9 (I think) Grand Masters and similar champions, and walks around playing one move at a time on each table, and beats.... almost all of them. This, having just revealed he is “a rubbish chess player”. The method is just lovely; I won’t spoil it. Although how he does the very final twist at the end, with the envelope, is an absolute mystery, that melted my brain completely. If you figure out his method for the envelope part, I would buy you free drinks for life!!! Sorry I don’t recall the name of the show, but I saw it on TH-cam......
That's pretty good, from a narrative perspective. The only downside I can think of is that, by highlighting the number, you might increase the odds of someone who knows about multiples of nine figuring it out.
This is a fascinating conversation between two creators I have followed on and off for years and I can't properly take it in because there's a fucking gap in the railing behind Brian and it's driving me up that god damn wall.
ps. I've found a new correlation between the golden ratio and the Fibonacci sequence. if you have been, thanks for watching. seriously, the digital root of this function will always be a Fibonacci number and there's a pattern that repeats every 40th something value. I've written a python program but i really need, Mathematica.
There is certainly an overlap in viewership. I sub to this channel, singingbanana, numberphile. Also standupmaths which is Matt Parker who also appears frequently on numberphile.
I always tell coders, think like a hacker. Don't focus on how your code works, think about how your code can be broken. That's how you make better code. Breaking makes better building.
Been subbed to both of you for a while. I'm also a huge fan of cryptography and my own encryption algorithm that has yet to be broken. I love this format, but I would say it should be done maybe once a month where you interview/talk with someone in a field as such. It brings a good variety to the channel.
@@JNCressey 512b key, split into 8 subkeys. Each round a subkey is XORd with the plain text, then bits are swapped followed by bytes being swapped. This continues for several rounds. Once finished, the message is XNORd with the original key. Because the bits and bytes are swapped are swapped around like they are, and there are technically 9 keys, a standard brute Force attack would take an extremely long time.
It's really insane to see how many of my favorite TH-cam channels have crossover content. I mean, there's always a chance that someone like Brushwood would introduce me to some whiskey channel a few years back deepening the 6 degrees of separation. Somewhere, I'm sure it's all tied back to Kevin Bacon!
End game has been out for just 2 days and it is no longer the most ambitious crossover in the history of the world
And so it began...

Now this is a surprising crossover. I'm subbed to you both!
Same
Ditto
It's really exciting to see the commonality they have in their love of tricking people, then teaching them how it's done. Marvelous stuff

Subbed to both scam school and singingbanana
I do maths at uni and I'm a part time magician and omg this is just so amazing
Thank you so much for this interview with Dr. Grime! We fans don't often get to see him talk about himself--it was a treat.
Yes. You have an overlap of viewership. Love both these channels AND numberphile. Keep up the good work.
This is one of my all time favorite team up! Both of you two are amazing! I always knew Brian was a math guy!
Nerrrrrrrrrrrds
Keep up the good work :P
My recommendation led me to this channel and liked it! I'll say Numberphile/Singingbanana viewers will like this channel!
nice!

Love both you guys. Hearing this discussion on audience and methodology was very interesting!
Awesome! This was great! I think what it all boils down to is that you're both excellent story tellers. :D
Wheres the longer video of you two nerding out? Id totally watch that!
I love it when some of my favourite YT authors get together. It's like watching Thor have coffee with Batman :D
Having recently gone back in the archive and watched one of your old videos I am glad for the reduction in the amount of hair gel involved in this channel... :D
And I delv into the TH-cam comments to find myself one of many subed to both channels! This is an amazing colab video!

So now we just need Matt Parker and everyone'll be all linked up. XD
Once we connect them all we’ll get... a Parker Square?

@@Aquila009 For that we'd need Keith from Objectivity.
Wow, this is so great. Loved the discussion!
I'm crying with joy watching this.

I wish I could nerd out and talk math with these two guys all afternoon!!!!
Really interesting conversation! Great video! :D

So has a lot of other people!
2 true legends
Just FYI, I am a 40yo engineer and I love both your channels.
Nice!!

Thanks for explaining the sign-off! Fully Charged also uses it, and their delivery just kept confusing me.
This was a great conversation!

Same!
How is the age relevant? What am I missing?
he just wants you to think he is older then he actually is
@M. de k. Ah, I heard that and didn't connect the dots. Thank you :)
James grime would make an interesting modern rogue episode
Definitely subscribed to both!
I love this power-up!
Very nice, thanks!
It's cool and unexpected to see you both :)
Wait... Did you have Dr Grimes at the Distillery? That's awesome. I wanna have a drink with him now.
I knew it! Deep down, Brian is just a math geek! ;)
Big fan of both dudes, can confirm they have at least a 5.2631e-5% overlap in viewership

I just realized that I watch too much Whisk[e]y Tribe when I recognized where you guys are sitting....
Ha, I haven’t seen Brian Bushwood since the early days of scam school, back when he had a Mohawk and Diggnation was a thing.
You could start it like "Ever hear that the number 9 is magic? Let's try this: type 9 and then the times button."
That's pretty good, from a narrative perspective. The only downside I can think of is that, by highlighting the number, you might increase the odds of someone who knows about multiples of nine figuring it out.
Whoa! I recently subbed to Numberphile again on this account, and suddenly there's a crossover with ScamNation?!! Insane lol
You 2 KNOW each other!?!?!?!? I had no freaking idea!
This is amazing!!
Would love to see a podcast with these 2 nerding out
Brians accent at the end sounded amazing, actually
Damm Brushwood you have guns. I haven't tuned in in quite awhile good for you!!
