Everything Everywhere Daily - March Madness

Every March, the United States experiences a period known as March Madness.  It is the time when college basketball teams compete for a national championship. 


The process of crowning a national champion is a months-long process where teams vie for a chance to make the national tournament. 


From there, in theory, every team that makes the big dance has a shot at becoming a champion. All you have to do is win five, or maybe six, consecutive games. 


Learn more about March Madness and how the NCAA Basketball tournament works on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Indicator from Planet Money - Why there’s no referee for the trade war

Thirty years ago, the U.S. helped create the World Trade Organization, a group of countries linked by a common set of free trade agreements. But then the U.S., starting with the Obama administration, turned against the WTO. This leaves a void where there should be a referee to settle trade disputes between countries. On today's show, how American grievances paralyzed the WTO's dispute settlement system and what happens when the U.S. no longer wants to play by the rules it once agreed to.

What Could Go Right? - Everything Is Tuberculosis, But It Doesn’t Have to Be with John Green

Today, Zachary and Emma are diving into a global health crisis that doesn’t get nearly enough attention—tuberculosis (TB). It’s one of the deadliest infectious diseases in the world, yet it has been largely ignored by wealthy nations and Big Pharma. But one person who refuses to let that stand is #1 New York Times bestselling author, YouTuber, and activist John Green. You probably know him for his bestseller The Fault in Our Stars or his YouTube series Crash Course, but he’s also been waging a public battle to make TB treatment more accessible. His new book, Everything Is Tuberculosis, explores the history, science, and injustices surrounding this disease. We talk to John about why he took on this fight, how public pressure actually changed corporate policies, and what we can all do to help.


What Could Go Right? is produced by The Progress Network and The Podglomerate.
