  • The Two Sides of Omar Khayyam
    Ever wondered how a Persian mathematician became one of the world’s most celebrated poets? In this episode, we dive into the fascinating life of Omar Khayyam—a brilliant astronomer, mathematician, and perhaps a poet—whose discoveries shaped calendars, algebra, and even geometry centuries ahead of their time. From surviving nomadic invasions to impressing kings and leaving a mark on both science and literature, Khayyam’s story is full of adventure, intellect, and a touch of mystery. Join us as we unravel the man behind the Rubáiyát and explore the legacy that still echoes today.   This episode was prepared with the help of AI, and the content is written by OYLA authors.
