Special Edition of "Across the Sky"
It's our FIRST special edition episode and it's for a very timely guest.
College basketball statistician Ken Pomeroy (aka KenPom) comes on the podcast to talk about his wildly popular basketball analytics website. Why is he on? He's a meteorologist! Ken explains how he made the seamless transition from understanding statistics in meteorology to applying them to college basketball.
He and the podcast team talk about the upsets that have already happened in this year's NCAA Tournament. Plus, why understanding probabilities, in both basketball and weather forecasting, are increasingly important.
