Everything Everywhere Daily - Attila the Hun (Encore)

During the 5th century, one name struck fear into the hearts of almost every European: Attila, leader of the Huns. 


For a period of almost 20 years, Attila ravaged Europe, conquering various tribes and causing one of the largest migrations ever seen on the continent.


Then, quite suddenly and unexpectedly, the conquests of Attila stopped, and the Huns were no longer a major power.


Learn more about Attila the Hun and how he changed the course of European history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Christine Wenc’s ‘Funny Because It’s True’ calls ‘The Onion’ “the original fake news”

The satirical news magazine The Onion has been putting out ironic and often absurd headlines for more than 40 years. Christine Wenc was part of the paper's original staff, dating back to its origins as an alt weekly in Madison, Wisconsin. Now, Wenc has written a book Funny Because It's True: How the Onion Created Modern News Satire that traces the history of the magazine's influence. In today's episode, she joins NPR's Scott Detrow for a conversation about the cheap living conditions that allowed the original The Onion staff to experiment, how the paper responded to 9/11, and why she believes The Onion is "good fake news."

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Knuckleball

In the game of baseball, it might not seem at first glance that there is much strategy involved in the game. 


However, there is an enormous amount of strategy that goes into every pitch in the game. 


Pitchers have different pitches in their repertoire, which can rise, fall, and curve on their way to the batter in an attempt to fool the batter. 


However, there is one pitch which is unlike any other. It is so challenging that only a tiny percentage of pitchers in history have ever thrown it.


Learn more about the knuckleball, how it works and why it is so rare on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
