Everything Everywhere Daily - All About Sand

One of the most common substances on Earth is sand. 

Most people don’t think very much about sand, but sand is an extremely important part of our world. 

It isn’t just for building sand castles and going to the beach. Sand is the second most consumed resource in the world after water. 

There is an entire science to sand, what different types consist of, how it is made, and even how it moves. 

Learn more about sand and the surprising complexity of a seemingly simple subject on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Gunung Padang (Encore)

Located on the island of Java in Indonesia, just 100 kilometers from the capital of Jakarta, lies what might be one of the most important archeology sites in the world. 

While it has been known to locals for centuries and to professional archeologists for over 100 years, it has only been seriously studied in the last several decades. 

Some of the estimates of the age of this site, if true, would radically transform what we know about early human civilization.

Learn more about Gunung Padang, perhaps the oldest and largest pyramid in the world, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Indicator from Planet Money - Why the US economy is still the envy of the world

The Economist's Simon Rabinovitch argues the U.S. economy has a set of structural advantages that have allowed it to perform remarkably well in the last couple of years compared to other developed countries. But could President-elect Donald Trump's second term in office put that edge at risk? Adrian Ma spoke with Rabinovitch for a recent episode of The Indicator. This episode is an extended cut of their conversation, previously released for Planet Money+ supporters.

NPR's Book of the Day - Two books explore phases of female life, girlhood and womanhood

Two books of essays consider the female experience through different stages of life. First, Kate Kennedy's One in a Millennial documents coming of age as a member of a highly-scrutinized generation. Her book explores the origins of millennial stereotypes and pop culture, but also focuses on the way that shared experiences of girlhood are often dismissed as frivolous. In today's episode, Kennedy joins NPR's Juana Summers for a conversation that touches on AOL Instant Messenger, college pre-games, and self-editing our own desires. We then hear from Jenny Slate about her new book Lifeform, a compilation of experimental essays that follow her life through five phases: Single, True Love, Pregnancy, Baby, and Ongoing. Slate joined Here & Now's Emiko Tamagawa at a live event in Boston, where the two discussed the confidence it takes to write down our ideas, fear and bravery in love, and Slate's perspective on childbirth and motherhood.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Women’s Suffrage

The earliest forms of democracy go back over 2000 years to Ancient Greece. While this early system did have voting, not everyone could vote. 

In fact, most people couldn’t vote. 

Voting was limited to free men and then only property-holding men. 

The expansion of voting rights to women took centuries, but by the 19th century, a movement was taking place in many countries that eventually led to the widespread extension of the franchise to women in the 20th. 

Learn more about women’s suffrage and how women got the right to vote on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
