Episode 036: Allie Goertz & Jason Stuart

==Description==
This episode of Go Fact Yourself is part of a balanced breakfast of trivia and comedy!
Allie Goertz is a writer who hosts the fellow Max Fun podcast “Everything’s Coming up Simpsons”. As if that didn’t give her enough funny things to surround herself with, she’s also the first woman editor for MAD Magazine! She’ll explain why even the silliest MAD content requires a lot of hard work.
Allie faces off against Jason Stuart! He’s a comedian and actor. He’s appeared in a number of films like Birth of a Nation stars in the new TV series “Smothered.” He’s always been openly gay in his showbiz career. But these days he says he’s, “only gay on the weekends.” He’ll explain.
Our guests will discuss breakfast, math and seminal “Saturday Night Live” films.

===What's the Difference?===
Make it Count 
====Number vs Numeral ====
A number is a count or measurement that is really just an idea in our minds. How many things are there? A numeral is how we label that idea. A symbol or name that represents that number. 
Think about it like words, an apple has existed long before the word apple existed. The apple itself is like a number, the word "apple" is like a numeral, like how letters make up a word. 
====Arithmetic vs Mathematics ====
*from listener Johnathan Lorde of Saint Paul, MN
Arithmetic involves only the basic functions of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Mathematics involves pretty much everything else including but not limited to algebra, geometry, trigonometry, or calculus. Arithmetic is about numbers while mathematics is about theory.
