Everything Everywhere Daily - Titanium
Titanium is the ninth most abundant element in the Earth’s crust.
However, titanium is not even remotely close to the ninth most common element in industrial or commercial use.
In fact, despite being so abundant, we didn’t even know titanium existed until the late 18th century, and we couldn’t figure out how to actually practically use it until the 1960s.
It is a remarkable metal with amazing properties that is still incredibly hard to work with.
Learn more about titanium, the amazing yet difficult metal, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - A Douglas Stuart double feature! ‘Shuggie Bain’ and ‘Young Mungo’
Both interviews today are with author Douglas Stuart. The first is about his Booker prize-winning Shuggie Bain; a story based on his own life growing up a queer son of a single mother struggling with addiction. He told NPR's Scott Simon that he hoped people could find comfort in this story. Next, Stuart spoke to NPR's Ari Shapiro about his new book, Young Mungo. It's a story about two boys separated by faith who end up falling in love with each other. Stuart told Shapiro that when he "write[s] about heartbreak or sadness, I'm really only doing that to make the tenderness and the love shine more."
