  3. Werner Herzog narrates Looney Tunes:

    The coyote is a lost soul, damned to a meaningless chase in a landscape of indifference. He paints a tunnel on a rock wall, only to watch the Road Runner sprint into the paradise. He pursues, but feels only the harsh, unyielding stone of reality.

    Desperate, he holds an ACME pistol to his temple, a final exit from this cruel game. The trigger is pulled. Silence. He opens one eye to a mocking flag that reads "BANG!"

    The coyote remains paralyzed by the absurdity of his own existence, knowing that in this echoing wasteland, the only thing more certain than hunger is the cruelty of the joke.

    Examining the numbers behind Andy Burnham’s ‘Manchester Miracle’

    More or Less

    Tim Harford investigates some of the numbers in the news. This week:

    (00:23) Andy Burnham may not be Prime Minister yet, but he’s setting out his economic agenda, and its based on his old stomping ground, Greater Manchester. We ask whether the official figures that seem to show an economic miracle can be fully believed, and how much credit he deserves.

    (10:09) As our towns and cities get hotter, would turning to air conditioning really drive outside temperatures up by 10 to 12 degrees celcius? We learn about the fascinating world of ‘urban heat islands’.

    (15:40) We turn to homophones in an attempt to continue a running joke. This week, we follow six items about Wales with an item about whales - are our cetacean friends the carbon sinks of our dreams? Will we ever write a stranger paragraph?

    (22:10) Cult director and maths fanboy Werner Herzog has been waxing lyrical about the intruiging mysteries of prime numbers. Tim cracks out a surprisingly decent impression and we learn about one of the most inscrutable problems in mathematics - what’s not to like?
