Everything Everywhere Daily - The Geography of Mexico

Just south of the United States and north of Guatemala is Mexico, a fact which I’m sure all of you know. 

However, most people don’t know that much about Mexico. There are caricatures of Mexico, and many people are familiar with some of the tourist areas, but that’s about it. 

In reality, Mexico is one of the world’s largest countries, and its unique geography has influenced its history and economy. 

Learn more about Mexico's physical, cultural, and economic geography on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Up First from NPR - The Sunday Story: The Invisible Hand of Fear

Fear can be a powerful weapon. Gao Zhi, a 44-year-old Chinese man, knows this well. In 2020, after criticizing the Communist Party on social media, he left China and gained asylum in the Netherlands. But after Wang Jingyu, a Chinese celebrity dissident, moves into Gao's home, things start to go terribly wrong. Gao fears he and his family are now in the crosshairs of the Chinese Communist Party. On this episode of The Sunday Story, NPR's Global Democracy Correspondent Frank Langfitt and a reporting partner bring us the story of Gao and Wang. It's a tale of how the fear authoritarian regimes sow can be used to create a world of lies, betrayal, and manipulation.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Germ Theory of Disease

For thousands of years, many theories have been put forward as to the cause of communicable diseases. 

These theories ranged from the religious to the magical and sometimes quasiscientific, but what they all had in common was that there was no proof for anything. 

Over the centuries these theories became dogma and often prevented a better understanding of diseases. It wasn’t until the 19th century that we got a clear picture of what the cause actually was.

Learn more about the germ theory of disease and why it took so long to recognize on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
