In our latest episode of Chatting with Channing, we are delighted to feature Simon Singh, the celebrated author and TV producer behind bestsellers such as Fermat’s Last Theorem, The Code Book, and The Simpsons and Their Mathematical Secrets. Simon was this year’s speaker at the sold-out annual Christmas STEM lecture, From Theorems to Serums, From Cryptography to Cosmology … and The Simpsons.
Interviewing Simon in this episode are two of Channing School’s keen mathematician sixth-formers, Alisa and Natalia. Simon takes us on a whirlwind journey through his life and career, as Alisa and Natalia pose engaging questions that explore the pivotal moments that ignited his passion for mathematics and his transition into media. Simon’s insights are inspiring not only for students but also for anyone interested in blending technical disciplines with creativity. He also uncovers the hidden mathematical gems in The Simpsons and offers valuable advice for those eager to delve into the world of STEM.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone who loves science or maths—or for those seeking inspiration from someone who has followed their curiosity to unexpected and rewarding places.
