0:12.2

Yeah.

0:13.2

Eighty-one.

0:13.9

Square number.

0:14.6

Eighty-one.

0:15.5

Not only is it a square number.

0:17.2

It's also a harsh-had number.

0:19.4

Do you know that?

0:20.2

No.

0:22.7

It's one of the non-trivial numbers when its digits are added together produces a sum which when multiplied by its reverse self

yields the original number. Isn't that something? You have to explain what that means. I don't know.

0:33.4

The other ones are one four or five eight and one seven to nine. Eight So 8 plus 1 equals 9. Yep. When multiplied by its reversed self, it yields the original number. What is the... What's the...

Well, it's nine times nine. Well, there's that too, right? But that's trivial. And no one even uses that. It's a trivial. It's a square, though? Or did we already say it was a square?

1:28.5

We said that.

1:29.2

We did say that.

1:30.0

I wanted to reinforce.

1:31.5

Oh, every, now every square number, I'm on it.
