In God We Lust - Listen Now: Scamfluencers

Scamfluencers is a weekly podcast from Wondery that takes you along the twists and turns of the most infamous scams of all time, the impact on victims, and what’s left once the facade falls away.

Scamfluencers recently dove into the story of Richard Bandler, the godfather of modern mental manipulation. He revolutionized the world of self-help, all thanks to an approach he developed called Neuro-Linguistic Programming. But, NLP methods have been criticized for being dangerous in the wrong hands and inspiring some of the most toxic and criminal self-help movements of the last two decades. Throw in Richard’s dark past as a cocaine addict and murder suspect, and you can’t help but wonder what his true intentions were.

This is just a preview of Scamfluencers. You can listen to the full episode wherever you get your podcasts, or at Wondery.fm/SCAM.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Conflict of the Orders: Patrician vs Plebeian

After the founding of Rome as a city in the 8th century BC, it created a social system based on an elite few and a majority of commoners. 

This social arrangement wasn’t unique to Rome, and it has appeared in cultures and civilizations around the world.

However, Rome was one of the first cultures to experience a conflict between these classes and for the commoners to win major concessions. 

Learn more about the Conflict of the Orders and the battle between Plebeians and Patricians on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Solar Cycle

Approximately every eleven years, our sun experiences a cycle in which its magnetic poles flip. During this cycle, solar flares and sunspot activity increase, and then the sun returns to a state of relative calm. 

These solar cycles have been tracked for over two hundred years and are among the best-recorded aspects of solar astronomy.

These extremes, known as the solar maximum and solar minimum, affect the sun and can have implications for the Earth. 

Learn more about the solar cycle and the ebbing and flowing of the sun on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘The Indian Card’ explores the question of Native identity in the United States

Carrie Lowry Schuettpelz is a self-proclaimed data nerd. So, when she started work on a project on Native identity, she turned to the Census data. Quickly, she noticed that the number of people in the United States who identify as Native had skyrocketed over the last decade. That data made her curious about how communities–and the federal government–have historically defined Native identity. The result of that project is a new nonfiction book, The Indian Card, which combines research and interviews to tell stories about the relationship between identity and bureaucracy. In today's episode, Lowry Schuettpelz joins NPR's Scott Detrow to talk about the historical and personal impact of federal policies like the Indian Relocation Act, blood quantum and tribal enrollment.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The History of Breakfast

Every day, billions of people around the world wake up and have breakfast. 

Breakfast is very different than the other meals you eat in a day. The types of food that people consume for breakfast are usually much more narrow than what they might be for lunch or dinner. 

Moreover, the way we eat breakfast and what we eat is very different to the types of meals people ate in the past. 

Learn more about the history of breakfast on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Food meets family in new books from Ina Garten and Stephen Colbert

Ina Garten and Stephen Colbert share some big commonalities. They've both had long and successful careers in television, they're friends–and they love food. Garten has built her career around her persona as the Barefoot Contessa, with recipes that find the intersection between simple and interesting. And now, she's out with a memoir, Be Ready When the Luck Happens. Colbert also has a food-centered book, although his project is a cookbook co-authored with his wife, Evie McGee-Colbert. In today's episode, NPR's Ari Shapiro speaks with Garten about growing up in a home where food was strictly fuel and about the joy of solving complex problems. Later, Shapiro talks with the Colberts about the cuisine of the South Carolina Lowcountry and how they've finally learned to play sous-chef for each other 31 years into their marriage.
