Everything Everywhere Daily - The Berlin Airlift

On June 24, 1948, the Soviet Union placed a blockade on Berlin's American, British, and French-occupied zones. 

No food, fuel, or supplies could enter the area known as West Berlin. 

Many people thought that either the allies would have to capitulate or engage in an armed conflict. However, the Americans and British eventually figured out another way around the blockade.

Learn more about the Berlin Airlift and how it shaped post-war Europe on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Telemark Raids

During World War II, one of the biggest concerns of the Allies was the development of an atomic bomb. 

As such, the allies and various partisan groups in occupied countries made the destruction of anything related to the Nazi atomic program a high priority.

One place, in particular, was subject to allied bombing, commando missions, and partisan sabotage throughout the war. 

Learn more about the Telmark Raids and how Norway became an important front in the Second World War on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘Nickel and Dimed’ is a window into the lives of low-wage workers

In Nickel and Dimed, author Barbara Ehrenreich lives the life of a low-wage worker and explores how unsustainable poverty is, as well as how easy it can be for one to get stuck in a vicious cycle. In this conversation with John Ydstie from 2001, Ehrenreich, who died earlier this month, discusses the symptoms of a profit-driven society and the issues that echo those today.
