Everything Everywhere Daily - How About Them Apples

One of the most popular fruits in the world is apples. 

Apples are associated with the Garden of Eden, buttering up your teacher, and the story of Snow White. They play a role in Greek and Norse mythology, and they have lent their name to famous record and computer companies.

However, apples are unlike almost every other fruit in that there are thousands of different varieties. The reason why there are so many different varieties is because of the uniqueness of the plant.

Learn more about apples, where they came from, and how they have been used in history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

However, when they celebrate Easter can vary dramatically. In fact, the possible dates of Easter can vary by over a month.

What most people don’t know is that setting the date for Easter was one of the biggest controversies in the early Christian church. In fact, it was a major reason behind one of the most important councils in history.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Jet Propulsion

When humans first managed to harness heavier-than-air flight, they did so by using piston engines and propellers. 

Several decades later, a more efficient means of propulsion was developed. It could make planes travel faster and higher and could use less fuel over longer distances. 

In addition to transforming civilian and military aviation, new modes of it still have the potential to revolutionize the world once again.

Learn more about jet propulsion, how it works, and how it was developed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Don Paterson and Michael Ondaatje’s new books meditate on poetry, time and memory

Today's episode features interviews with two poets whose new works look back in time, either in their own lives or those of their subjects. First, Don Paterson speaks with NPR's Scott Simon about his new memoir, Toy Fights, which recounts his childhood in Scotland. The two get to talking about Paterson's self-described "descent into madness" and the reason his poems go unmentioned in the book. Then, Simon speaks with Michael Ondaatje about A Year of Last Things, and how the Booker Prize-winning writer thinks about going back and forth between fiction and poetry.
