I should note that this is a trend with all my media consumption. 2016-2019 I watched a lot of YouTube videos, but around 2019 I started listening to a lot more podcasts, and spending most of my online video time on TikTok. I enjoy Steve Mould and occasionally a video from Bec on TikTok. I still haven't seen any Stan Up Maths videos on TikTok... It's a shame, really.

Here they are in reverse chronological order. How can a jigsaw have two distinct solutions? We shot a YouTube video about film formats on 35mm film. Search for the mythological Klein-ing Frame. Rotation without rotating. Chicago has a problem until the year 2083. Exploring the mysteries of the Prime (gaps!) Line. How does Dobble (Spot It) Work? Why was Biden's win calculated to be ONE IN A QUADRILLION? Do these scatter plots reveal fraudulent vote-switching in Michigan? Why do Biden's votes not follow Benford's Law? The Parker Machine: it's 80% accurate. MPMP: Can you spin the table? Then I've watched all your videos continuing back until MENACE: the pile of matchboxes which can learn. I'd like to mention that I watched the raw 35mm video on Matt's second channel twice. Old TV and film production is my favorite thing to learn about.

Hey, I went back to how many of Matt's YouTube videos I've watched since starting the podcast. It was indeed more than 4. But you can see that 5 years ago I watched all your videos, then suddenly stopped for months at a time.
