3 KQED s Newest Podcast Explores the Bay Area, One Question at a Time If you live anywhere long enough, certain local quirks seem normal. In the Bay Area, maybe it s the unusual belted shape of Sutro Tower. Or the overwhelming noise of a BART train as it travels underneath the bay. Or the mere existence of those brightly colored parrots perched above San Francisco s Telegraph Hill. For most of us, these idiosyncrasies and mysteries are like wallpaper: barely noticed and largely unquestioned. But what if we stopped to take a closer look? KQED s new podcast, Bay Curious, will get to the bottom of the under-the-radar mysteries and peculiarities that help give our region its unique identity. And we ll do it with your help! You ask the questions. You decide what Bay Curious investigates. And you come along to discover the answers. Join host Olivia Allen-Price, a Bay Area transplant who s fallen hard and fast for her new home, to explore the Bay Area, one question at a time. Each week Bay Curious will answer questions like: Why are there so many ships buried under San Francisco? What is the origin of the word hella? What would it take to make Lake Merritt swimmable? If you re as curious about the Bay as we are, subscribe to the podcast and participate at BayCurious.org.

4 News Art KQED Continues Coordinated Homelessness Coverage Get our picks for holiday gifts, events and outings. 4 On June 29, more than 80 media outlets joined together in an extraordinary collaboration the SF Homeless Project. The idea: one day of coverage spotlighting the issue of homelessness in the Bay Area. KQED and The San Francisco Chronicle, which organized the collaboration, each produced more than a week of coverage. KQED focused on telling first-person stories to reveal the huge range of people living on our streets. We also looked at the issue from a regional perspective and told stories of the people living on the edge of homelessness facing housing insecurity, living in cars and on couches, and facing eviction. And we re proud to share that the Northern California Society of Professional Journalists recently recognized the project with its 2016 Public Service Award. On Wednesday, December 7, the collaboration will continue with another day of coordinated coverage, focusing on accountability and follow-up. This time, KQED will tell the stories of college students choosing to get an education rather than pay rent because they can t afford to do both. Look and listen for special editions of KQED Newsroom and The California Report during the week. KQED is committed to providing ongoing coverage of the housing crisis, to help us all better understand the problems and explore solutions. kqed.org/homeless Are you looking for holiday gift ideas? Trying to find a gift for that hard-to-shop-for family member? Stumped on what to get your artsy friend? Look no further! KQED Arts has created an online gift guide to help you make the most of your time and budget while offering suggestions of holiday gifts worthy of the people receiving them from books for children and adults to musical ideas and craft fair recommendations. If you re looking for nonmaterial ways to celebrate the holidays, how about an experiential gift that encourages you and your loved ones to get outside for a hike or bike ride? Or you might consider a day trip to one of the Bay Area s many museums and galleries. More ideas at kqed.org/holidayguide2016 Funding for KQED Arts is provided by the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, the Kenneth Rainin Foundation, the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, Yogen and Peggy Dalal, Helen Sarah Steyer, Diane B. Wilsey, the William and Gretchen Kimball Fund, Campaign 21 and the members of KQED. Photo: courtesy Ken Fisher.

12 In the late 19th century, King Ludwig II of Bavaria created extraordinary and extravagant castles that were described at the time as so ridiculous they are beyond all taste. Yet today these stunning palaces are among Germany s biggest tourist attractions. Fairytale Castles of King Ludwig II explores his rich aesthetic from the mock medievalism of Neuschwanstein, the iconic fairytale castle that inspired Walt Disney s Sleeping Beauty castle, to the rich baroque splendor of Herrenchiemsee, Ludwig s answer to Versailles.
