Episode 035: Suzy Nakamura & Mark L. Walberg

==Description==
It might be the most highbrow episode of Go Fact Yourself yet!
Suzy Nakamura is an actor who’s been seen in shows like ”Dr. Ken” and “The Goldbergs”. Her work has endeared her to a large number of fans, but she’ll explain what she’s had to correct them about an unfortunate number of times.
Suzy’s opponent is Mark L. Walberg! He’s the host of shows like “Antiques Roadshow” and “Temptation Island” (and is not to be confused with the actor who shares his name). Mark will tell the story of how his son inadvertently helped him win another trivia game show, “The Weakest Link.”
Our guests will discuss minor league baseball, math, and traditional holiday ballet.

===What's the Difference?===
Mean
====Facetious vs Sarcastic ====
*from listener Fred Snyder (spelling?) of Chicago, IL
Both types of remarks are not meant literally, but there are differences. Facetious comes from a Latin word that means jest. Facetious remarks are meant mainly to be funny, especially about something serious, but are not meant to be hurtful. Sarcastic comes from a Greek word meaning to tear flesh. Sarcastic remarks are intended to be cutting and express distain, and are meant to be hurtful. 
====Median vs Mean====
The mean of a set of numbers is the average! the total of the numbers divided by the number of numbers in that set. The median of a set of numbers is the number where half of the numbers in the set are lower and half of the numbers are higher.
