Everything Everywhere Daily - The Judgement of Paris
Before 1976, the California wine industry wasn’t on anyone’s radar. Most Americans didn’t even know that wine was produced in California.
Everyone in the knew, without any doubt, that the greatest wines in the world were all produced in France. In particular, from regions such as Bordeaux and Burgundy.
However, in just one day, the wine world’s attitudes towards French and California wines were completely and irrevocably altered.
Learn more about the Judgement of Paris and how, in a single day, the world took California wines seriously on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Magical realism and identity explored in Salman Rushdie’s books
This episode features two different books by one author: Salman Rushdie. And while the two stories differ, recurrent themes of magical realism and the supernatural accompany them both. First, Rushdie, in a discussion of his book The Golden House, tells Ari Shapiro how escaping your past can lead to disillusionment And then, in an interview with Scott Simon about the fantasy elements in Two Years Eight Months and Twenty-Eight Nights, he says that to combine magic and realism, you need the ability to think and to dream.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Zodiac
Several thousand years ago, astronomers in the Middle East studying the night sky divided it into 12 equal regions. Each region was given a name, was associated with an animal and a constellation.
These divisions became the basis for the nascent disciplines of astronomy and astrology.
Today, the system created by those ancient astronomers can still be found in the pseudoscience of horoscopes and the very much science of astronomy.
Learn more about the zodiac and the signs of the zodiac, where they came from, and how they spread around the world on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
