As an outsider, the British peerage system is really confusing. There are princes, dukes, earls, and barons.
Some of the titles are hereditary, and some of them are not.
The titles have a hierarchy, but is a viscount higher or lower in status than a marquess, and is a baron higher or lower than an earl?
Learn more about the British peerage system, how it works, and the structure of it all, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Solving systemic racism and buying sensible cardigans with comic Phoebe Robinson
Comic Phoebe Robinson told NPR's Rachel Martin that she doesn't wake up every day thinking "time to dismantle systemic racism!" But since she has a platform, she might as well use it to bring about some positive change. She also told Martin that her dream life involves buying sensible cardigans, getting day drunk with Kathy Lee and Hoda, and a loving marriage with Robert DeNiro. Robinson's book You Can't Touch My Hair: And Other Things I Still Have to Explain goes into the racism she experiences and why she would like to date either Michael Fassbender or Michael B. Jordan (sorry Mr. DeNiro).

In God We Lust - Wondery Presents: Call Me Curious
Is sugar really more addictive than cocaine? Does intermittent fasting work? Should I buy crypto? We’re all on 24-7 information overload, on our news feeds, in our inboxes, on TikTok… it’s hard to know what is real and what isn’t. Every week on CALL ME CURIOUS, Nikki Boyer (Dying for Sex, The Daily Smile) and friends like Mr. Malone are going to dive into all the things you’ve heard about, but don’t really know about. That’s right - No more nodding along at parties or running into the bathroom to Google, “Why do people get nipple rings?” We’ll learn and laugh as we explore life’s little mysteries, the internet’s hot topics, and burning gotta-know questions.

For centuries, humans have built canals to facilitate the transportation of people and goods.
Usually, they are built to dramatically save time, like how the Panama and Suez canals can help avoid a trip around an entire continent.
However, there is currently a canal being built that is designed to replicate a natural feature that already exists.
..and it might actually make sense.
Learn more about the Istanbul Canal and why it is being built, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - We look at Hollywood legend Rita Moreno’s career after the Oscars
The 94th Academy Awards were last night. To celebrate we're taking a trip down memory lane with one of Hollywood's greatest icons, Rita Moreno. Back in 2013 she sat down with NPR's Rachel Martin to discuss her life and career, including her win for best supporting actress in 1962. She told Martin that her acceptance speech was so short because she wanted to get off stage so she could cry.
