Topic: At T Park

A reported "plague" of seagulls in the San Francisco Bay Area is being blamed on climate change or a lack of predators. However, local observations suggest the birds have always congregated at stadiums like AT&T Park and Candlestick Park to scavenge food after games. The use of falcons and flares to control the birds at garbage dumps is a costly but necessary measure to prevent bird strikes at nearby airports.

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak open the show from separate locations, with Curry reporting from a mobile RV setup in the woods near NSA headquarters in Virginia. They describe the logistical challenges of their recent travel from a Jersey City meetup and the severe bandwidth limitations of their current 3G connection. The hosts warn listeners of a significant audio lag and potential synchronization issues throughout the episode.
