It's Pi Day, or if you hate math, Just Eat Pie on 3.14 *Podcast Mini *What a Weird Week

Pi Day is supposed to celebrate the number you get when you divide 22 by 7 (3.1429).

We celebrate it on the third month and the fourteenth day every year. But it's Monday. Mondays are hard. Math is also hard. Can't we just eat pie instead. That's a problem I can solve on a Monday.

Here are a few pie stats...

Largest Cherry Pie in the World was baked in BC!

The BC Cherry Pie World Record was 17 tonnes!

"Members of the Oliver Rotary Club, British Columbia, Canada, baked a cherry pie weighing 17.11 tonnes (37,721 lb) in Oliver, British Columbia, on 14 July 1990."
