Welcome to Episode #156 of Everything Under the Sun!

This week, we’re joined by the brilliant and always entertaining FunMaster Mike Klein—chess expert, educator, and all-around fun guy—to help us answer a seriously strategic question: how do you become a grandmaster in chess?

Next, we’ll zoom out to explore the world map and ask: why do countries have capital cities? And finally, we’ll swing over to Madagascar to uncover the reason behind those stylish stripes—why are lemurs’ tails so stripy?

Get ready for a brainy, bouncy episode full of games, geography, and animal wonders!
