It was the biggest news story of the era and has been called the crime of the century. 

Ninety years later, people are still enthralled with the crime and are searching for clues.

Today's episode features interviews with two giants in pop culture who get very real about the pitfalls in their personal and professional lives. First, NPR's Scott Detrow speaks with Henry Winkler about his new memoir, Being Henry, and how his overnight stardom as The Fonz on Happy Days was followed by a long lack of acting roles. Then, NPR's A Martinez chats with Arnold Schwarzenegger about his book Be Useful, and the men in his life who taught him the importance of helping others.

Centuries ago, someone decided jumping from a great height and trying to land without being injured would be a good idea. 

…and in a few cases, it actually worked….although in many more cases, it didn’t. 

Once humans figured out how to actually fly, they realized that there might be an actual use for this stunt. 

Learn more about parachutes, parachuting, and how and why this particular technology was developed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Minecraft trilogy by Max Brooks is about two humans – Guy and Summer – who get trapped in the world of the video game Minecraft and have to find their way out. In today's episode, Brooks speaks with NPR's Andrew Limbong about how Minecraft is the perfect medium through which to teach kids about conflict, survival and adapting to change. But they also get to talking about how Brooks' first book, World War Z, landed him a gig at West Point teaching military preparedness, and how he thanks his mom, actress Anne Bancroft, for teaching him the value of being prepared.

During the Cold War, the United States and the Soviet Union competed in almost every arena: space, sports, and of course the military. Everything they competed in was designed to show the superiority of their respective systems. 

In 1972, one of the greatest cold war rivalries came to a head in Reykjavík, Iceland. 

It didn’t take place at a sporting event or on a battlefield. Rather, it took place over a period of two months on a chessboard.

Learn more about the 1972 World Chess Championship, aka the “Match of the Century”, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

There are lots of things Curtis Chin, co-founder of the Asian American Writers' Workshop, learned at his family's Chinese restaurant: how to be curious, how to be kind, how to create community. His new memoir, Everything I Learned, I Learned in a Chinese Restaurant, recalls Chin's upbringing as a gay Chinese-American boy in 1980s Detroit, and how the family business served as the ultimate safe space – not just for him, but for everyone in the city. He tells NPR's Ailsa Chang about the diverse clientele that frequented the restaurant, and how it continues to shape his worldview today.

The First World War was the most horrific war the world had ever seen at that time. When the conflict ended, there was an effort to make sure that such a thing never happened again. 

To that end, a deliberative body was created where nations could come together to debate and discuss matters before starting an armed conflict.

While having some success, this deliberative body ultimately failed at its stated goal of avoiding another world war.

Learn more about the League of Nations and why it failed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
