The Power Rank on KALX Spectrum

This isn’t a phone conversation that immediately gets posted as a podcast. I went to the studios of KALX, the student radio station at UC Berkeley, and taped about 70 minutes of material with Rick Karnesky and Brad Swift. They subsequently spent 8 to 12 hours editing the material into the show that aired on Spectrum, the science and technology show on KALX. We discuss the algorithm, its roots in statistical physics, and my thoughts about Big Game that largely came true. You can listen to the 20 minute show here.
