Bay Curious - Are Seagulls Native to the Bay Area?
Seagulls are everywhere in the Bay Area — flocking to Giant's games in San Francisco and crowding South Bay salt ponds. But are they actually native? Once seasonal visitors from Mono Lake, they've recently become year-round residents. We get to the bottom of this gull invasion.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Frequent Flyer Programs
One of the things that almost every airline has in common is frequent flyer programs.
Frequent flyer programs were initially designed for loyal customers who flew frequently. However, they eventually branched out to people who used certain credit cards and earned miles by making everyday purchases.
These programs have become so popular that many airlines now make a considerable amount of their money from them, and in many cases, they are the difference that makes airlines profitable.
Learn more about Frequent Flyer Programs, how they started, and how they work on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Fibonacci Sequence and the Golden Ratio
Two of the most important concepts in the world of mathematics and nature are the Fibonacci Sequence and the Golden Ratio.
These two concepts seem separate, but they are actually tightly intertwined.
While they have been known since the ancient world, they are still highly relevant today and can be found all over nature.
Best of all, despite being important mathematical concepts, they are also among the easiest to understand.
Learn more about the Fibonacci Sequence and the Golden Ratio, what they are, and how they were discovered on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Amateur Radio
The early days of radio were like the wild west. There were no rules, and that lack of rules often led to problems.
Eventually, frequency regulations were put into place, which left a large swatch of spectrum available to amateur radio operators.
Over time, these operators created a worldwide community that predated the internet by decades. It is still a community that exists today with thousands of people around the world.
Learn more about amateur radio and its origins on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
