Everything Everywhere Daily - The Doolittle Raid
After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the American military was on the defensive. They had been hit hard, and it would be months before they could regroup and strike back.
However, one American general had an idea. He hatched a plan where the Americans could strike back immediately to let the Japanese know that they were vulnerable.
It was a risky one-way mission unlike any in the history of warfare.

In God We Lust - Introducing: The Great Creators with Guy Raz
The Great Creators with Guy Raz premieres on September 20th, featuring conversations about creativity with some of the most celebrated actors, musicians and performers of our time.

In an upcoming episode, Guy interviews actor and theater legend Audra McDonald. She’s won six Tony Awards for her performances, more than any actor ever. They talk about how each new role scares her, and why that fear is actually essential to her work.

Gatecrashers - Ep. 3: Dartmouth and the Jews who Loved it
On the surface, all-male Dartmouth in the 1940s and 1950s seems like it would be deeply unappealing to Jews: rural New Hampshire campus, no Jewish girls within miles, a history of antisemitic fraternities. But Jewish alumni from that era seemed to love Dartmouth. Why?
Something about Dartmouth—maybe it was the bucolic campus, the mountains, all that fresh air—made for a more laid-back environment than at the other Ivies.
In Episode 3 of Gatecrashers, you’ll hear from Dartmouth alumni including journalist David Shribman, actor Stephen Macht, screenwriter Steven Geller, and Richard Press, Jewish scion of the preppy clothier J. Press, about how Jewish students embraced the great outdoors—and learned to love Dartmouth College.
