Everything Everywhere Daily - The Battle of Milvian Bridge (Encore)

In the year 312, two claimants to the Roman imperial throne met outside the walls of Rome near a bridge that crossed the Tiber River. 

The subsequent battle that followed was not that different from many other Roman battles that had been fought over the centuries. 

However, the implications of that battle have long-reaching ramifications that have shaped the world for the past 1700 years. 

Learn more about the Battle of Milvian Bridge and how it changed the world on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Music

Notes

  • If you want to know more about Gardner, I’d suggest Witness to an Era: the Life and Photographs of Alexander Gardner, by Mark Katz.

  • On Brady, Matthew Brady: Portraits of a Nation, by Robert Wilson.

  • I’d also suggest reading the New York Times’ review of the exhibit. It’s pretty stunning.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Operation Market Garden

After the Allied landing in Normandy in World War II, the Allies made progress pushing back the Germans.

However, by September, things had slowed down. One allied commander devised a plan that he thought would end the war in one fell swoop.

The plan was bold, audacious, and highly risky, and in the end, it was ultimately a failure.

Learn more about Operation Market Garden and the attempt to quickly bring an end to the war on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘Roaming’ is a graphic novel about friendship and travel

It's one thing to be friends with someone, but going on a trip together? Totally different story. A new graphic novel by Jillian Tamaki and Mariko Tamaki captures that dissonance: Roaming follows two friends from high school reuniting on a trip to New York City during college. But there's a new, third pal in the mix – and pretty soon, it's clear the vibes are off. The Tamiko cousins spoke with NPR's Ayesha Rascoe about how the way a person travels reveals a lot about their character, and why that experience was much different in 2009 – the year the book is set – than it is now.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Paella

Every country has a national dish, and Spain is no exception. The dish that most people associate with Spain is the rice dish known as paella. 

Paella is, on the one hand, very simple, and on the other hand, very complex and confusing. 

It also has a surprising history touching on almost every major period in Spanish history. 

Learn more about paella, the national dish of Spain, and how it might technically even be Spanish on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Tourist Office of Spain

This episode is sponsored by the Tourist Office of Spain. 

There are many great places to visit in Spain, but one of my favorites has to be Valencia.

Valencia was the first place I ever visited in Spain, and it has a special meaning for me. 

It also happens to be the home of paella, as well as one of my favorite restaurants in Spain, Casa Montaña. 

You can also visit the famous City of Arts and Sciences and view the exceptional structures designed by the Valencian architect Santiago Calatrava. If you’ve seen a recent science fiction TV or movie, there is a good chance they had a scent shot there. 

And, if you happen to be in Valencia at noon on a Thursday, you can also witness the meeting of the Valencia Water Tribunal, the world’s oldest continuously operating democratic body. 

If you want to plan your trip to Valencia or anywhere in Spain, you can get all the information you need at Spain.info. 

Once again, that is Spain.info.

NPR's Book of the Day - In ‘Jews in the Garden,’ a Holocaust survivor tries to uncover uncomfortable truths

As The Public's Radio Lynn Arditi says in today's episode, much has been written about the Polish resistance movement during World War II. But in her interview with Judy Rakowsky, author of Jews in the Garden, the two journalists discuss the culture of silence around many of the atrocities of the time period. Rakowsky's book – part memoir, part thriller – recounts how she spent decades using her investigative reporting skills to help Sam, a family member and Holocaust survivor, make sense of what really happened in the Polish village he fled as a teen.
