Everything Everywhere Daily - The Purchase of Alaska (Encore)

In 1867, United States Secretary of State William Seward signed a treaty with the Empire of Russia to purchase the territory of what would be called Alaska.

The United States purchased it for 2 cents an acre. 

At the time, it was called one of the worst deals in American History. Today, it is considered the greatest bargain of all time.

NBN Book of the Day - Justin Gregg, “If Nietzsche Were a Narwhal: What Animal Intelligence Reveals About Human Stupidity” (Little, Brown, 2022)

What if human intelligence is actually more of a liability than a gift? After all, the animal kingdom, in all its diversity, gets by just fine without it. At first glance, human history is full of remarkable feats of intelligence, yet human exceptionalism can be a double-edged sword. With our unique cognitive prowess comes severe consequences, including existential angst, violence, discrimination, and the creation of a world teetering towards climate catastrophe. What if human exceptionalism is more of a curse than a blessing?

As Dr. Justin Gregg puts it in his book If Nietzsche Were a Narwhal: What Animal Intelligence Reveals About Human Stupidity (Little, Brown (US), 2022, Hodder (UK), 2023), there’s an evolutionary reason why human intelligence isn’t more prevalent in the animal kingdom. Simply put, non-human animals don’t need it to be successful. And, miraculously, their success arrives without the added baggage of destroying themselves and the planet in the process.

In seven mind-bending and hilarious chapters, Dr. Gregg highlights features seemingly unique to humans – our use of language, our rationality, our moral systems, our so-called sophisticated consciousness – and compares them to our animal brethren. What emerges is both demystifying and remarkable, and will change how you look at animals, humans, and the meaning of life itself.

This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose doctoral work focused on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

What A Day - Tanks Giving

After weeks of pressure, President Biden announced he would send Ukraine M1 Abrams tanks. The decision clears the way for Germany to send over a dozen of their own tanks to help Ukraine defend itself against Russian forces.

In an interview with the Associated Press, Pope Francis called laws that criminalize homosexuality “unjust.” It’s the latest statement he's made in support of the LGBTQ+ community — though he maintained the Catholic Church’s view that being gay or lesbian is a sin.

And in headlines: India forced Twitter and Youtube to take down a documentary critical of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Meta announced that it will reinstate Donald Trump's Facebook account, and Justin Bieber sold his share of the rights to his music catalog for $200 million.

The Daily Signal - INTERVIEW | Bill Donohue Previews New Documentary That Exposes Disney’s Pro-Sexualization, Anti-Nuclear Family Agenda

The magic of Disney is fading, according to the president of the Catholic League.


Disney has adopted a woke “idea of diversity, which sounds innocuous on the face of it, [but] is really an agenda to divide people,” Bill Donohue says. “And that's what they're doing. They're dividing people on the basis of family, on the basis of race, on the basis of sex, sexual orientation.” 


Donohue joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to discuss his group's new documentary, "Walt's Disenchanted Kingdom." The film shines a light on how Disney has drifted from its pro-family roots to become a poster child for an agenda that puts radical political ideology before the innocence of children.
