NPR's Book of the Day - In a new version of ‘The Cake Bible,’ Rose Levy Beranbaum updates a culinary classic

When Rose Levy Beranbaum's The Cake Bible was first published in 1988, it took the baking world by storm. It was the first cake book to list ingredients by weight instead of volume and also introduced the technique of reverse creaming. Now, 35 years later, Beranbaum has released a new version of The Cake Bible. The update includes altered recipes that keep pace with changes to ingredients and equipment over the past few decades, like taller cake pans and smaller egg yolks. In today's episode, Beranbaum speaks with Here & Now's Robin Young about the biggest mistakes for beginner bakers to look out for, the author's recent preference for simple design, and a chocolate cake named after Plácido Domingo.

Short Wave - How To Have Hard Conversations

Many people are gearing up for holiday conversations with loved ones who may disagree with them — on everything from politics to religion and lifestyle choices. As the conversations unfold, these divisions are visible in our brains too. These conversations can get personal and come to a halt fast. But today on the show we get into research in neuroscience and psychology showing that as much as we disagree, there are ways to bridge these divides – and people who are actively using these strategies in their daily lives.

Want to hear more neuroscience and psychology? Email us your ideas to shortwave@npr.org — we'd love to hear from you!

Chapo Trap House - 886 – Cabinet Curiosity feat. Alex Nichols (11/18/24)

We review the various freaks, toadies, goons, and TV personalities that Trump has tapped to build his second cabinet, and speculate how much damage Vivek & Elon can actually do with their kids-table DOGE advisory board. We also discuss the coalescing view among the pundit class that the Democrats need to abandon their various activist groups, as espoused in today’s reading series by Adam Jentleson. Finally, a new (hopefully semi-regular) feature from Matt.

It Could Happen Here - Anatomy of the Great Replacement Panic feat. Steven Monacelli & Dr. Michael Phillips

Around the world, racist influencers have instigated a panic over shadowy global elites who have supposedly conspired to flood white-majority countries with immigrants from Latin America, Africa and Asia in order to destroy Western civilization.  This idea, called the Great Replacement Theory, has inspired mass shootings from New Zealand to Buffalo, NY.

This episode outlines the history of the Great Replacement Theory and explores the toxic political and social atmosphere that led to the murder of 23 Mexicans and Mexican-Americans and the wounding of 22 others at a Walmart in El Paso, TX on August 3, 2019.
