Everything Everywhere Daily - The Origin of Words and Phrases: India

The British ruled India for over 200 years.

During that period, the British attempted to impose British culture on India. While they were somewhat successful, especially in exporting India’s national sport of cricket, they unknowingly were influenced by India as well.

It turns out that words from several languages on the subcontinents have made their way into English. Many of these words are common words you use every day, even though you might not know they have Indian origins.

Learn more about English language words of Indian origin on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

What A Day - The Tragedy of War, Made Worse

Israel confirmed that an airstrike targeting a top Hamas commander hit a densely populated refugee camp in northern Gaza, killing at least 50 people and wounding hundreds more. The attack raises fears that Israel’s continued push into the enclave will put even more Palestinian civilians in harm’s way.

On Capitol Hill, anti-war protesters interrupted a U.S. Senate hearing over the White House’s emergency aid request for Israel and Ukraine. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin both testified that the $106 billion request is imperative for national security.

And in headlines: Republican Rep. George Santos could face an historic vote to expel him from Congress, a federal judge in Texas ordered Border Patrol agents to temporarily stop removing razor wire along the US-Mexico border, and a Kansas judge ruled that officials there cannot enforce laws that discourage anyone from seeking an abortion.

The Best One Yet - 🚦 “Elmo got a makeover” — Sesame Street’s new pivot. Target’s theft excuse. JetBlue’s vacation mistake.

Sesame Street is changing its format for the first time in 56 years — Big Bird, Elmo, and Oscar The Grouch pioneered the “magazine format” of TV (which even influenced our podcast)

Target has said all year long that it’s struggling because of 1 thing: Theft (aka “shrinkage”) — But we just got the data from a journalist’s investigation… and Target doesn’t want you to hear it.

And JetBlue stock is about to hit an all-time low — Because when all you do is chase trends, you eventually run out of gas.

Ologies with Alie Ward - Neuroparasitology (NATURE ZOMBIES) with Matt Simon

What’s on your mind? ZOMBIES. The planet is full of mind-controlling foes, and “Plight of the Living Dead” author Matt Simon researched deep and traveled the world to document tales of fungus-controlled zombie ants, bellies and brains full of worms, wasp bunkers, decapitated ants, brutal stings, hapless cockroaches, the attraction of light, moonlit skinny dipping, and the philosophy of where I stop and you begin. The two of us also discuss the Last of Us, of course.
