NPR's Book of the Day - Failure motivates Olympic medalist Lindsey Vonn

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.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Did Vermeer Use A Camera Obscura? (Encore)

Johannes Vermeer was one of the greatest painters of the Dutch Golden Age. Unlike many of his contemporary painters, however, he didn’t leave a large body of work behind. 

The paintings he did create have left experts in both art and technology wondering if he didn’t have a secret that helped him with his craft. A technical secret, not an artistic one.

Learn more about Vermeer and the question as to if he and other painters used optical devices to help themselves paint, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Everything Is Made of Atoms

The Great Nobel Prize winning physicist Richard Feynman was once asked to convey in a single sentence the most important scientific knowledge that humans possessed. 

His answer was short and simple: “Everything is made of atoms.”

Believe it or not, this was believed to be the case over 2000 years ago in ancient Greece and India. However, it wasn’t until the modern era that we were able to prove to be so. 

Learn more about atoms and how we discovered they existed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
