The Numbers Life – let‘s get nerdy

13 – a Prime number and the current episode‘s reference number. You think this is nerdy? Well, this episode dives head first into nerdyness, so it is only fitting.

In February our bookdragon SandyJ enjoyed two Manga Weekends and read 31 books, most of them by Japanese authors. So this episode‘s recommendations are the Manga series „Wotakoi – Love is hard for Otaku“ by Fujita and the literary fiction novel „The Housekeeper and the Professor“ by Yoko Ogawa.

A special goodie is the book recommendation by the Show‘s musician Erwin Schmidt.

Stream on Sunday, March 7, at 7 p.m., Drop on Monday, noonish.
