One of the most popular fruits in the world is apples. 

Apples are associated with the Garden of Eden, buttering up your teacher, and the story of Snow White. They play a role in Greek and Norse mythology, and they have lent their name to famous record and computer companies.

However, apples are unlike almost every other fruit in that there are thousands of different varieties. The reason why there are so many different varieties is because of the uniqueness of the plant.

Learn more about apples, where they came from, and how they have been used in history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Every year, Christians around the world celebrate Easter. 

However, when they celebrate Easter can vary dramatically. In fact, the possible dates of Easter can vary by over a month.

What most people don’t know is that setting the date for Easter was one of the biggest controversies in the early Christian church. In fact, it was a major reason behind one of the most important councils in history. 

Learn more about the Easter Controversy, aka Quartodecimanism, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

When humans first managed to harness heavier-than-air flight, they did so by using piston engines and propellers. 

Several decades later, a more efficient means of propulsion was developed. It could make planes travel faster and higher and could use less fuel over longer distances. 

In addition to transforming civilian and military aviation, new modes of it still have the potential to revolutionize the world once again.

Learn more about jet propulsion, how it works, and how it was developed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Today's episode features interviews with two poets whose new works look back in time, either in their own lives or those of their subjects. First, Don Paterson speaks with NPR's Scott Simon about his new memoir, Toy Fights, which recounts his childhood in Scotland. The two get to talking about Paterson's self-described "descent into madness" and the reason his poems go unmentioned in the book. Then, Simon speaks with Michael Ondaatje about A Year of Last Things, and how the Booker Prize-winning writer thinks about going back and forth between fiction and poetry.

He was one of the greatest thinkers of the ancient world. He was a philosopher, a mathematician, and had some unique views on diet and religion. 

You probably know him best for the theorem which bears his name. 

However, if you asked anyone 2,600 years ago, they might have known him for something else entirely.

Learn more about Pythagoras, his ideas, and the cult that he led on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The story of Saba, the protagonist of Leo Vardiashvili's novel Hard by a Great Forest, is much like the author's own. A young boy flees the Soviet Republic of Georgia with his father and brother as the country is ravaged by a war. Decades later, when his father goes back to their homeland and promptly disappears, Saba must face his family's past – and immense loss – in an effort to find him. In today's episode, Vardiashvili tells NPR's Scott Simon about being separated from his own family, and the feeling of time-travel he felt when he finally made his way back to Georgia.
