The Best One Yet - 🌴 “Nothing beats a…” — Jet2’s meme-of-the-summer. Uber’s Airbn-beating. The NFL’s ESPN hookup. Kevin = Cash.

One obscure British airline is surging thanks to a TikTok meme… Jet2 is self-roasting.

Uber stock is 2x higher than their IPO, while Airbnb’s is down… we found why one’s riding, one’s hiding.

The NFL is buying 10% of ESPN from Disney… but Disney is living in Opposite Day.

The most popular name on Wall Street (and Germany) right now is… Kevin.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘The Feather Detective’ is a biography of Roxie Layboune, forensic ornithologist

In 1960, a commercial flight was struck by a flock of birds, resulting in a deadly crash. Evidence was sent to the Smithsonian, where a woman named Roxie Laybourne successfully identified the species of bird involved. That case began her career as the first forensic ornithologist – and Laybourne’s work is the subject of Chris Sweeney’s new book, The Feather Detective. In today’s episode, Sweeney joins NPR’s Scott Simon for a conversation about Laybourne’s unique expertise, her influence on aviation safety, and the sexism she faced as a female scientist.

Guest: David A Graham, staff writer at the Atlantic.
