Infinity. Most kids first learn about this neverending concept when double and triple jinx don't seem to do enough anymore. There are infinity pools, the Infnity Engine, and even an Inifinity War.

In this episode, Pete and Noah use the paradox of Hilbert's Grand Hotel to explore infinity and discuss some of its interesting quirks.
