For many travelers, Antarctica is a bucket-list destination, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to touch all seven continents. In 2023, a record-breaking 100,000 tourists made the trip. But the journey begs a fundamental question: What do we risk by traveling to a place that is supposed to be uninhabited by humans? And as the climate warms, should we really be going to Antarctica in the first place? SHOW NOTES: Kara Weller: The Impossible Dilemma of a Polar Guide Marilyn Raphael: A twenty-first century structural change in Antarctica’s sea ice system Karl Watson: First Time in Antarctica Jeb Brooks : 7 Days in Antarctica (Journey to the South Pole) Metallica - Freeze 'Em All: Live in Antarctica Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices…

Welcome back to Mike’s Nerd Bytes—Snack-Size Bytes of Tech, Science, and More! I’m your host, Mike Maione, and today, we’re diving into Part 2 of the phonograph’s story—a journey of innovation, competition, and, yes, even a bit of drama. When we last left off, Thomas Edison had invented the phonograph in 1877, but the device had a lot of room for improvement. The tin foil cylinders were fragile, and the sound quality left much to be desired. This is where competition comes in. Enter Alexander Graham Bell and his cousin, Chichester Bell, along with their associate, Charles Tainter. They developed the graphophone in 1880, which replaced Edison’s tin foil with wax cylinders. This was a game-changer. Wax was far more durable and produced clearer recordings. Thanks for tuning in to Mike’s Nerd Bytes!
