Importance: — High
Agree! ‘Get It Right’ is singular priority - we think alike. This is the Role and Importance of pre-production. Funds adequate.
Clarity critical, as is charisma. However, given intimacy of TV interviews, it’s not always apparent upfront who communicates well. Usually by not always. Sometimes someone who is a great lecturer to 500 students falls flat or off puts as arrogant. Sometimes a mousey introvert with intense eye and facial expressions sparkles and
radiates. There is no substitute, however, for clarity.
Looking forward to discussion.

Excited to go through math candidates on the list, others too.
Equally important, discuss edits/modifications to the 13 episodes (cutting blahs), expanding math episodes - see below. Assuming we expand math episodes, we will need more mathematicians.
How’s late afternoon after 5:30 pm / early evening today? - or weekend, day/times? (Family issues today - mother 102 in May.)
RADICAL BREAKTHROUGHS - Initial Revisions (working model for discussion, red is new)
Expand and Modify Mathematical Breakthrough episodes 1. Mathematics and Truth / Overview / Show Excitement/Importance 2. Mathematical Fields / Diverse New Kinds and Categories
3. How Math Works in Disparate Areas of Knowledge (from fundamental physics to chemistry, biology [molecular and evolutionary|, psychology, sociology, economics, etc.)
4. Power Laws
5. Mathematical Biology
