S1E02: (Statistical) Power Struggles

In the second episode of Quantitude, Patrick and Greg channel the spirits of the two old men from the Muppet show (Waldorf and Statler, in case you’re curious) and argue about the relative risks and benefits of statistical power analysis. They also discuss Patrick’s mother, leaf blowing, 11 year-old saxophone players, the fortuitous ambiguity of child labor laws, vision in pigs, the poop emoji, and they properly use the word ‘persnickety.’ Enjoy!
