In November 1943, the Big Three leaders of the allied powers in world war II, Winston Churchill, Franklin Roosevelt, and Joesph Stalin, were scheduled to meet in person for the first time in Tehran, Iran. 

When the Germans got wind of this, Hitler figured this would be a great opportunity to just kill all of his enemies at once. 

Learn more about Operation Long Jump and Hitler’s plot to kill all of the allied leaders in one fell swoop, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Author of the wildly popular and, at times, controversial A Little Life, Hanya Yanagihara, is out with a new novel. To Paradise is an epic – in three parts – sprawling over 700 pages and 200 years about a make-believe New York City. Yanagihara was mostly through writing her story, which features pandemics prominently, when COVID-19 first hit in early 2020. But Yanagihara told NPR's Scott Simon that she was able to keep her story and her fears about the pandemic in reality separate.

By the age of 32, Alexander the Great had conquered most of the world which was known to him. 

This episode is not about any of that. This is about what happened after his death. 

After he died, his corpse became a political football, and his tomb became the centerpiece of the city in Egypt which bared his name, and within a century became the largest city on Earth. 

…and then at some point, his body and his tomb just disappeared from history. 

Learn more about the corpse and the tomb of Alexander the Great and what might have happened to it, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The 2022 Winter Olympics are right around the corner, so to prepare we are bringing you a conversation with skier Lindsey Vonn. Her new memoir, Rise, looks at her road to becoming a ski champion and Olympic medalist. Spoiler alert: it was not all sunshine and roses. Vonn told NPR's A Martinez that she's lucky she is wired in a way that makes negativity a driving force because she has seen the pressure and stress of being an Olympic athlete derail other people's careers.

The Memory Palace is a proud member of Radiotopia from PRX.

A note on notes: We’d much rather you just went into each episode of The Memory Palace cold. And just let the story take you where it well. So, we don’t suggest looking into the show notes first.

Music

• Time Beat by Ray Cathode

• Rabbits of the Void by Tomaga

• Weightless by the Neil Cowley Trio

• Scenes from the Poet’s Dreams I: Racing Through the Stars by The Lark Quartet

• Switchcraft by Chilly Gonzalez

• Sky Breaking, Clouds Falling by Mason Lindahl

Notes

• There’s a ton written about The Crash at Crush but the one I’d recommend is Train Crash at Crush, Texas: America’s Deadliest Publicity Stunt, by Mike Cox
