S8E05 Probability and Odds: What's the Vig?

In this week's episode Patrick and Greg have a somewhat circuitous conversation about the academic curriculum vitae across the professional lifespan: what it is, why we have it, and what kinds of things may or may not go on it. Along the way they also discuss Antiques Roadshow, Duolingo streaks, Oscar, Greg's front door, Teddy Roosevelt, sarcastic Spanish, Coors Light as a religion, the doodad drawer, riptide warning flags, flaming trash dumpsters, a middle seat on Southwest Airlines, you got two minutes, danger Will Robinson, where's Waldo, and God's most thankless task.Stay in contact with Quantitude!<ul><li>Web page: <a href='https://quantitudepod.org/'>quantitudepod.org</a></li><li>TwitterX: <a href='https://twitter.com/quantitudepod'>@quantitudepod</a></li><li>YouTube: <a href='https://www.redbubble.com/people/quantitudepod/shop'>@quantitudepod</a></li><li>Merch: <a href='https://www.redbubble.com/people/quantitudepod/shop'>redbubble.com</a></li></ul>

Quantitude, The Trailer

In the inaugural episode of Quantitude, Greg and Patrick introduce themselves, describe their goals for the podcast, and talk about their own professional trajectories -- kind of like superhero origin stories, but without the "super" or "hero." They also discuss what not to say in your application to a quantitative graduate program, a lifelong dream of becoming a police officer, building up to a "tight ten," hot yoga, broken legs, army recruiters, parental wisdom, and umlauts. Stay in contact with Quantitude!<ul><li>Web page: <a href='https://quantitudepod.org/'>quantitudepod.org</a></li><li>TwitterX: <a href='https://twitter.com/quantitudepod'>@quantitudepod</a></li><li>YouTube: <a href='https://www.redbubble.com/people/quantitudepod/shop'>@quantitudepod</a></li><li>Merch: <a href='https://www.redbubble.com/people/quantitudepod/shop'>redbubble.com</a></li></ul>

S1E01: Welcome to Quantitude / Origin Stories

A podcast dedicated to all things quantitative, ranging from the relevant to the highly irrelevant. Co-hosts Patrick Curran and Greg Hancock talk about serious statistical topics, but without taking themselves too seriously. Think: CarTalk hi-jacked by the two grumpy old guys from the Muppets, grousing about quantitative methods, statistics, and data analysis, all presented to you with the production value of a 6th grade school project. But in a good way.
