Everything Everywhere Daily - The Wilhelm Scream
Many filmmakers are known for small signatures that they always put inside their films. Alfred Hitchcock always used himself in a cameo. George Lucas always found a way to integrate the number 1138. Quentin Tarrentio almost always mentions the fictional "Big Kahuna Burger."
And Stan Lee, of course, has found his way into every Marvel Movie.
However, there is one film signature that is shared by a wide range of movie makers and has appeared in hundreds of films. You’ve probably come across it even if you didn’t realize it.
Learn more about the Wilhelm Scream, where it came from, and how it spread on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Bay Curious - Why So Many Motels on Lombard Street?
Lombard Street is famous for its winding brick lane, but beyond that iconic block lies something unexpected: a stretch of old-school motels. Why so many in one place? This week on Bay Curious, we explore how the growing popularity of automobiles – and the opening of the Golden Gate Bridge – transformed Lombard Street into a bustling hub for motor lodges. Then, we’ll head south to the San Mateo-Hayward Bridge to unpack its history.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The History of Personal Computing
When computers were first created, they were enormous.
They would often take up the better part of a building, and they consumed large amounts of energy.
Despite the size of these early computers, some people saw a future where computers would shrink down small enough that they could fit inside a person’s home.
Some thought that idea was ridiculous. Not only was that prediction true, but it changed everything.
Learn more about the history of personal computing and how it developed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Gateway Arch
In the midst of the Great Depression, the City of St. Louis wanted to create a monument to the city’s role in the westward expansion of the United States and general waterfront improvement.
It took thirty years, but they eventually created their monument with the assistance of the Federal Government. When it was completed, it was a structure like no other on Earth.
It was a 660-foot-tall freestanding stainless steel arch. It required innovations not just in design and architecture, but in materials, construction, and even elevators.
Learn more about the Gateway Arch, how and why it was built, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
