Measure for Measure is a limited series from Ministry of Ideas that sizes up our world.

We love a good chart or graph but we think measurement is more complex and interesting than just data points. Each episode will look at a different unit of measure as a fundamental grammar of our lives. Through the series, listeners will be invited to consider the measurements they use to communicate their everyday experiences, from the most intimate to the highly technical.

**EPISODE 0:** **BIRDS**
Could you pick a white-breasted nuthatch out of a lineup? We explore the value - and limits - of birdwatching, categorization, and measurement.

**EPISODE 3:** **OLIVES**
Jews are ritually obligated to eat matzah during Passover. But how much matzah? Well, that depends on your views on the size of an olive.
