Everything Everywhere Daily - When Did Canada Become Independent?
In a previous episode of the podcast, I touched on how it was difficult to pin down the date in which the United States actually became independent.
In the case of the United States, it was a matter of pinning down when we wanted to define independence. Was it at the start of the rebellion, the act of declaring independence, or was it the end of the war?
In the case of Canada, trying to pin a date on independence is a lot more complicated, and extends over a much longer period of time.

The Gist - The Mask Monologues
On the Gist, Trump’s mind.
In a break from our normal format, Virginia Heffernan of Trumpcast is here with Mike to analyze the most aggressive anti-mask rants out there. From across the nation, people who suffer from a touch of the QAnon are unleashing their unsound mask fears on us all, blaming anything from the Deep State to 5G. We’re going to figure out what makes for the most entertaining version of these conspiracy theorists, and what, if anything, we should take seriously.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Neil Armstrong’s First Time in Space
Everyone knows who Neil Armstrong is and why he is famous.
Being the first person to set foot on the moon has placed him in a unique position in world history, and he is a name that people will probably remember for thousands of years.
But Apollo 11 was not his first spaceflight.
His first flight aboard Gemini 8 was, in many respects, far more exciting and impressive than his exploits on Apollo 11.
