Exclusive Playlists (3)

I do mathematics and stand-up. Sometimes simultaneously. Occasionally while being filmed. (It's quite the Venn diagram.)

You can send business stuff to standupmaths@zigguratxyz.com and maths to matt@standupmaths.com (but everything gets to me one way or another).

I'm also in these places:
