Everything Everywhere Daily - The History of Chocolate
Around 3,500 years ago, the people of Central America discovered something marvelous: the cacao bean could be used to create a fermented beverage that was unlike anything they had experienced.
For centuries, the cacao bean became so important in that part of the world that it was used as money.
Eventually, the bean was taken from the Americas to Europe, where it was radically transformed.
Learn more about the history of chocolate and how the sweet treat we know today developed from something completely different on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - How The United States Congress Came to Be
When the 13 American colonies decided to form a proper constitution, the single largest question which confronted them was how their legislature would be organized.
This question was really the crux of the entire constitutional convention, and if it couldn’t be resolved, it was likely there would be no constitution.
Once it was resolved, Congress evolved with its own set of rules and traditions. Many of the key elements of the United States Congress are, in fact, not required by the constitution at all.
Learn more about how the United States Congress came to be on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Carthago Delenda Est: The Third Punic War
In 201 BC, the Romans were victorious over their archrivals, the city-state of Carthage, in the Second Punic War.
This was was the closest which Rome had ever come to defeat and almost spelled the end of the republic.
50 years later, some Romans felt that they left the job unfinished. In fact, some Romans could talk about nothing else.
Learn more about the Third Punic War and the destruction of Carthage on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
