Everything Everywhere Daily - The Geography of Spain

Spain, like most countries, has a unitary national government but also has a series of subnational jurisdictions. 

In most countries, these might be known as states or provinces; however, in Spain, they do things a little differently. 

The political divisions in Spain aren’t arbitrary lines on a map. The divisions are usually based on unique histories, as well as cultural, linguistic, and geographic differences. 

Learn more about the political and cultural geography of Spain and the various regions that comprise it on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Daily Signal - New Research on ‘Conversion Therapy’ Turns LGBTQ Narrative on Its Head

On today's show, Tyler O'Neil sits down with Father Paul Sullins, senior research associate at the Ruth Institute and a former sociology professor at Catholic University, to discuss his research into "sexual orientation change efforts."


Sullins analyzes the best data on how people who identify as homosexual have fared after undergoing therapies to address psychological issues that might underlie their same-sex attraction. While many U.S. states and health organizations claim that these efforts, often branded "conversion therapy," increase the risk of suicide, Sullins finds the exact opposite.


LGB people who underwent SOCE were actually less likely to have suicidal thoughts AFTER the therapy. This finding turns the literature on its head and suggests that therapy to resolve issues underlying same-sex attraction may help LGB people, even if such therapy does not lead them to reject homosexuality.


Enjoy the show!

NPR's Book of the Day - Kaveh Akbar’s novel ‘Martyr!’ is a journey of identity, addiction and poetry

Halfway through today's episode, author Kaveh Akbar tells NPR's Scott Simon that his life is a summation of "private joys amidst collective grief and private grief amidst collective joy." It's a contrast that contextualizes his emotionally dark yet deeply funny debut novel, Martyr!, about an Iranian-American poet grappling with addiction, loss, displacement and art. Akbar, who is also poetry editor at The Nation, explains why his protagonist is so obsessed with the concept of martyrdom, and how it relates to his own personal journey with sobriety.
