Episode description
When all of our digital devices manage our calendar for us, we kind of take for granted how complex of a tracking system the calendar is. Some months have 31 days while others have 28 days...then there’s leap year! All of these rules with the calendar came from a lot of conflict and compromise throughout the ages.

With Special Guest YouTuber Joe Scott and Mathematics Professor, Math-magician and TED speaker Arthur Benjamin.
