I worked with him last year for Pi Day and I can confirm he's legit as nice in person as he is on camera. Also he never swears, unlike James Grime who's a hilarious potty mouth :D

I haven’t watched a Numberphile video in a while, probably not since the lockdowns. I have to say, James Grime doesn’t give that impression at all. Something about James “singing banana” Grime being a hilarious potty mouth is in itself very funny to me.

I actually love that James swears like a soldier. Don't know why exactly.

Thinking about it, I would be equally happy to learn Matt swears and James doesn't. Must be something about the 'insider' information!
