This week the StatsJobs blog reports on the Bayesian versus Frequentist Song by The Corrigan Brothers.
The Corrigan Brothers are leading exponents of how to capture the zeitgeist. They wrote about Barack Obama’s Irish roots and helped him win the 2008 American presidential election, about the 2011 Irish presidential election, Luis Suarez’s bites, Vincent Tan’s shirts, and the Irish government’s proposal to give free cheese to poor people.
Inspired by a blog post on the 100-year-old debate between Frequentists and Bayesianists, Ger Corrigan thought, “Statisticians should have a song.” This week the Corrigan Brothers release their latest single ‘Bayesian versus Frequentist’ and Dr Brían Merriman, the man behind the StatsJobs StatsBlog, spoke to Ger about story-telling, CERN, Susan Boyle’s cat, and a prize for the best music video.
