Most children growing up are admonished not to take candy from strangers. 

It is good advice, but it isn’t advice that comes from nowhere. It comes from a particular incident 150 years ago that shocked the world and changed how we view children’s safety.

It was an event, the echos of which can be seen today in efforts to find abducted children.

In the TV series Game of Thrones, there were four different seasons where disputes were determined with trial by combat. 

As fictional as the Game of Thrones universe is, the idea of resolving legal disputes by fighting, sometimes to the death, was historically accurate. 

For centuries, trial by combat was a legitimate option for conflict resolution, and according to some theories, it might still technically exist. 

Learn more about trial by combat and how it was actually conducted on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

For most of human history, if you wanted something, you had to make it yourself or know the person who made it. 

Eventually, merchants began to sell more and more goods in one store to make it convenient for consumers. 

These stores reached their zenith with enormous structures which sold almost everything. They were not just innovations themselves, but they were an engine for innovations which are still with us today.

Learn more about the rise and fall of department stores on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In this episode, NPR's Scott Simon interviews two writers whose books about friendship reckon with how people, and what we experience with them, make us who we are. First, Hua Hsu talks about his memoir Stay True which focuses on one of his formative college friendships, and how that friendship was cut tragically short. Then, we hear from Kamala Shamsie about her novel Best of Friends. It follows the push and pull of a friendship between two girls from when they were teenagers in Karachi to when they're older and working in London.

If you’ve done your share of flying, you are probably familiar with the three-letter airport codes which identify every commercial airport in the world. 

Airports like DFW, LGA, and HOU are easy to figure out. However, why is there an X in LAX? How did Washington Dulles wind up with IAD? And what is the deal with almost every airport code in Canada?

Learn more about airport codes and the weird logic behind them on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
