Everything Everywhere Daily - The Chinese Language(s)
One of the most widely spoken languages in the world is Chinese.
In addition to being one of the most popular languages in the world, it also has some of the oldest roots and, in many respects, is completely different from every other language spoken today.
But when we refer to the Chinese language, what exactly are we even referring to? Can we even say that there is a language called Chinese?
Learn more about the Chinese languages and what makes them unique on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Books by Vashti Harrison and Dolly Parton teach kids about self-love and courage
Today's episode is about two children's books with very big themes. First, author-illustrator Vashti Harrison speaks with NPR's Juana Summers about Big, which chronicles how words affect children – and particularly young, Black girls – as they grow older and their bodies change from baby to big kid. Then, Dolly Parton joins NPR's Melissa Block to discuss Billy the Kid Makes It Big, a story about a music-making dog (inspired by a real-life pet!) standing up to the bullies around him.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Mother of All Demos (Encore)
Almost every single person listening to this podcast right now is doing so on some sort of personal computing device.
Many of the things that we consider part of a modern personal computer, windows, hyperlinks, a mouse, and a text editor, all were released upon the world in a single 90-minute demo in 1968.
The ideas were so advanced it would take over two decades before most of them found themselves in everyone’s homes.
Learn more about the Mother of All Demos and the birth of personal computing, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
