It’s March 14, or <a href="https://www.sciencefriday.com/segments/pi-day-2025-math-celebration/?utm_source=wnyc&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=scifri" target="_blank">Pi Day</a>, that day of the year where we celebrate the ratio that makes a circle a circle. The Greek letter that represents it is such a part of our culture that it merits our irrational attention.Joining Host Ira Flatow to help slice into our pi’s is Dr. Steven Strogatz, professor of math at Cornell University and co-host of Quanta Magazine’s podcast “The Joy Of Why.” They talk about how pi was “discovered,” the ways it’s figuring into recent science, and how AI is changing the field of mathematics.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on <a href="https://www.sciencefriday.com/episodes/march-14-2025/?utm_source=wnyc&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=scifri" target="_blank">sciencefriday.com.</a>
