Everything Everywhere Daily - Vitamin D

Of all the vitamins and nutrients which are required by the human body, there are 13 of which that are considered essential nutrients. That means they can’t be produced within our bodies.

One of those vitamins can be produced in our bodies, but it requires a little bit of help to make it. 

It is a vital component of human health, yet an enormous percentage of the world is deficient in it. 

Learn more about Vitamin D, aka the Sunshine Vitamin, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Neptune

In 1612, when Galileo Galilei first looked at the stars through a telescope, he might have accidentally discovered a new planet, although he had no idea at the time. 

It wouldn’t be for another 300 years until astronomers found what Galileo had missed, and the process of discovery was unlike any other planet. 

Learn more about Neptune, the solar system’s most distant gas giant and the 8th planet from the sun, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Two YA novels create well-rounded portraits of Black characters coming of age

Today's episode covers two YA novels centered around Black youth and the portrayals they receive – or don't – in coming-of-age literature. First, NPR's Andrew Limbong speaks with Talia Hibbert about her new romantic comedy, Highly Suspicious And Unfairly Cute, which follows an unapologetically nerdy heroine reconciling with the ex-best friend jock that ditched her. Then, NPR's Ayesha Rascoe gets to talking with author Nick Brooks about his new mystery, Promise Boys, which revolves around how a group of Black students are blamed for the murder of their prestigious school's principal.

White Lies - The Entry Fiction

When President Carter promised to welcome the men and women arriving on the Mariel boatlift with "an open heart and open arms," he had referred to them as refugees. But technically speaking, they weren't refugees. They were classified as entrants, an immigration status with a peculiar legal standing in the United States. While entrants are physically allowed to enter the country, legally they're still at the border, asking to come in. Their presence in the country is known as a legal fiction — specifically, the "entry fiction." So even as Cubans were disembarking boats in droves through the summer of 1980, they were officially still floating off the coast of Key West. And this immigration status followed them to where they went next: an army base in rural Arkansas. In episode 4, the curious case of the militarized border in the middle of the Ozark Mountains.

White Lies - The Rumors

During our reporting, we heard one story over and over again: that Fidel Castro had emptied his prisons to fill the boatlift. It's a story that's been told so often and with such conviction that of course it must be true, right? But what if this was more theater than history? What was happening in 1980 in Miami and throughout the country that made this story so compelling? Why did it feel so true to so many people? In Episode 3, we go to Miami to find out.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Cult of Reason

The French Revolution wasn’t just a political revolution where one government was replaced with a new one. 

The French Revolution was also a social revolution. The largest social institution in France at the time of the revolution was the Catholic Church. 

At the start of the revolution, the revolutionaries attempted to create a new state religion which was quite unlike anything else the world had seen before or since. 

Learn more about the Cult of Reason and the attempts of Revolutionary France to create a state religion that wasn’t a religion on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - In ‘The World And All That It Holds,’ two soldiers fall in love during World War I

The World And All That It Holds starts off in Sarajevo, in 1914, when shots ring out and World War I begins. It changes the course of protagonist Rafael Pinto's life, as he goes on to travel across time and conflict to find a twin flame in another Bosnian soldier named Osman. In today's episode, author Aleksandar Hemon paints a poetic backdrop for his striking new novel. He tells NPR's Scott Simon about the concept of macaronic language, a bilingual mix of ways to communicate, and how Pinto and his partner build their own unique dialect to express their love for one another.
