Blog - Brady Haran

This post is a hub for videos and podcasts which relate to my recent surprise birthday present - an aerobatic flight at Sywell Aerodrome.

Some people are probably aware I have a fascination with aviation (and plane crashes).

Last weekend I hiked up Ben Nevis, the UK’s highest peak.

Incredibly honoured that the name “Bradyharan” has been chosen for an asteroid in the main belt between Mars and Jupiter.

Just a short post to mark the passing of my dad, Peter Haran.

I’m very proud to have been awarded the 2024 Zeeman Medal for the communication of mathematics (press release here).

At the time of writing, many UK high school students will shortly receive their A-Level results - exam grades that can decide their path into higher education.

One of my favourite video projects is in some peril.

Thanks Jennese for this great email (and pictures of Nathaniel).

A perk of this job is occasionally receiving nice emails from strangers.

Numberphile viewers may be familiar with The Parker Square - an ill-fated mathematical construction by Matt Parker.

People who support our chemistry channel (Periodic Videos) via Patreon receive an unusual perk.

Most years we try to make videos about the Nobel Prize winners in chemistry and physics.

The recent death of The Queen is dominating all forms of media this week - so in-keeping with the reminiscing and Queen-related articles...

We’ve finally done it.

I’m so pleased to be writing this post about an award for Neil Barnes.

The International Mathematical Union has named the 2022 Fields Medallists.

In the latest Numberphile video, Marcus du Sautoy introduced me to the notion of n+7 writing/poetry.

Two videos posted for Easter this year.

I didn’t intend to make anything for Pi Day 2022 - feels like I’ve already done my bit for the Pi cause.
