Everything Everywhere Daily - The Prime Meridian

Located in East London is the Royal Greenwich Observatory. 

Passing directly through the observatory is an imaginary line that extends from the North Pole to the South Pole. 

This line is significant because it is the reference point for every other line of longitude in the world. 

What is even more remarkable is that there is no objective reason for this particular line to be so important. 

Learn more about the Prime Meridian and why it is where it is on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - With ‘Dare I Say It,’ Naomi Watts aims to help menopausal women feel less alone

At age 36, actor Naomi Watts visited her doctor in hopes of starting a family. Instead, she was told that she was close to menopause. She says she felt panicked and alone, despite the fact that tens of millions of women experience menopause each year. In a new book, Dare I Say It, Watts tries to open what she sees as a closed conversation around aging. Her advice-based book covers her own fertility story, her experience with menopause symptoms, skincare, nutrition and more. In today's episode, Watts speaks with NPR's Mary Louise Kelly about learning to be her own advocate at the doctor's office, hormone replacement therapy, and returning to herself in this new chapter of life.

The Bulwark Podcast - Anne Applebaum: Outside the Rule of Law

If the Chinese hacked the U.S. government the way private citizen Elon has, it would be a major act of cyber warfare. And since Elon is a government contractor, he's now in a position to make policy calls that benefit his own companies and hurt his competitors—following the Russian oligarch model. We are in a completely lawless realm, and this is likely to continue until he is stopped. Meanwhile, government employees are being forced to choose between conforming or protecting the public. Plus, Elon is also sabotaging America's soft power and influence in Africa while he and the other tech overlords plot how to derail Europe's effort to regulate them.

Anne Applebaum joins Tim Miller.
