There's a lot of tragedy that goes into watching your home erupt into a battlefield. But journalist Illia Ponomarenko says as the Russian military seized city after city in their latest invasion of Ukraine, people also came together in beautiful ways. His new memoir, I Will Show You How It Was, recounts what living – and covering – the war has been like so far. In today's episode, The Kyiv Independent co-founder speaks with NPR's Scott Simon about Ukrainians' willingness to fight for their country, what life is like in Bucha today and the unexpected way he met his girlfriend's parents.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The St. Scholastica Day Riot
A common occurrence at many universities is that they have contentious relationships with their local community.
This is not a recent development. It is something that has existed ever since universities were developed.
The relationship between colleges and local towns was probably at its worst in 1355 when an outbreak of violence occurred at Oxford University.
Learn more about The St. Scholastica Day Riot and its 500-year legacy with the local community on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Audio Poem of the Day - Crip vs. Crip
By Walela Nehanda
Everything Everywhere Daily - Questions and Answers: Volume 19
The month of June was originally called Iunius by the Romans. It originally had 29 days and was the fourth month of the year.
Today, it has 30 days, and it is the sixth month of the year.
It used to be a bad omen to be married in June, and now it is the most popular month to be married in.
However, despite all the changes in June, there is one thing that has remained constant: questions and answers.
Stay tuned for the 19th installment of Questions and Answers on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
