Join us as we travel forward in time to the 31st century, and also back in time to the year 2010—when Dan Brown books were still alarmingly popular! When Farnsworth discovers a dusty blueprint in an ancient beard (just go with us on this), the crew heads to Rome to reveal secrets both ancient and mathematical. And when they discover the truth about Leonardo Da Vinci, nothing will ever be the same. Note: This podcast is best listened to the in classic and uncomfortable "Vitruvian Man" position.

Memento is one of my all-time favorite movie going experiences and it's all owed to me seeing it completely unaware of what the movie was about. I was just along for the ride with some of my friends and we saw it in what was probably a 20 seat theater in Wilton, NH. It definitely put Nolan on the map for me and Inception felt like his spiritual follow-up to Memento. That movie is perhaps the most video gamey movie I've ever seen. It has to devote so much time to explaining the lore and how the mechanics of the film work that the Elliot Page character basically exists just for the audience's benefit. The first half feels like the tutorial section and it's a bit of a slog to get to the good stuff. And it is good, just perhaps not as good as it wants to be and a hard movie to rewatch because of the first half. I have a somewhat negative impression of this week's episode, but it's almost entirely due to me always running into it on Comedy Central. I think it's fine now, but it feels long for some reason in what I guess is a theme for my comment this week. And yeah, the dated parody doesn't help.

what color is the pill for Da Vinci conspiracy theories?

Couple things I remember of the making of this episode: For the squid fight in the Trevi Fountain, the script called out for all those action beats, and Raymie suggested doing it in stills. Animating squid tentacles never comes out good, so we pitched it and they accepted the idea. We thought it looked anime. I guess not, based on your questions about it. The building on the planet Vinci with the 4 x 4 numbered rooms is just supposed to be one of those sliding number games, where you slide the tiles and try to put them in order. And I remember the script just saying that several items fit together to form the Space Ship. Raymie and his assistant, Aldin Baroza, figured all of that Rube Goldberg stuff out. It was way more than they were expecting.

My wife and I did a self-guided Twin Peaks tour during the pandemic and the cafe was more than happy to serve up pie and coffee and play up their Twin Peaks heritage.

Raymie has a cool Tumblr where he posts a lot of stuff from his career: https://www.tumblr.com/mashymilkiesinc If you're wondering why he didn't stay with The Simpsons: https://www.tumblr.com/mashymilkiesinc/678748348483796992/early-in-1992-the-overtime-pay-issue-bubbled Also, I have to defend Fry. He lives in a world where every dead person can be resurrected as a disembodied head. That those heads might've turned to stone seems plausible.

I also don't care for Christopher Nolan's films. I find them dull. In 372 Pages We'll Never Get Back, Mike Nelson says he doesn't like Nolan's movies either, so there's at least three of us.

I visited Rome last year and it's incredible how many amazing statues and antiquities are within walking distance of each other. St Peter's Basilica has an honest-to-goodness pope mummy on display and I wish I had the presence of mind to say 'He makes a-nice a-heap'

Re: Rome, I wouldn't worry about looking like a tourist to the locals, it was the most touristy city I've ever visited, primarily because while a lot of cities have a ton of tourist attractions Rome has all of them centralized. Also, the pizza wasn't significantly different from American pizza outside of the dough they use.

The Mathematics Mvsevm was just an example of a "15 Puzzle," so I think you are over thinking it. It's really a math game for children (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/15_puzzle) but, five episodes later (The Prisoner of Benda) famously has a math proof formulated and proven by Ken Keeler (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Prisoner_of_Benda) and that group-theoretic permutation based reasoning is part of the proof that only roughly half the starting positions of a 15 Puzzle have no solutions, albeit a minor part of that proof. A generalized "shortest" solution is also an example of an NP-complete problem (essentially, the most difficult math problems).
