In this episode, I talk about how to make a key lime pie, why we have 24 hours in a day, and when time matters.
Specifically, we examine the questions:
* Why is time measured by a duodecimal system of 12?
* Why are there 24 hours in a day?
* Why were ancient Egyptians better at counting on their fingers than we are?
* How did we come up with hours and minutes?
* What the heck is a millisecond?
* How can you get your hands on my favorite recipe for Crabmeat Louisianne?
