Everything Everywhere Daily - The History of Wire

The modern world runs on metal wires. 


These thin metal strands literally circle the globe and are responsible for much of the world’s electrical power and communications. 


It is something so basic that most people never bother to stop and think about how wires are made. 


It turns out wire has been made for thousands of years, although its uses have changed dramatically. 


Learn more about wire, how it's made, and its many uses on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Occupation and Liberation of Paris

Of all the cities that experienced the Second World War, one of the most interesting stories is that of Paris. 


Paris was not the scene of major fighting like Warsaw, which was all but destroyed. It was occupied for over four years, during which time it saw acts of resistance and collaboration. 


When the city was liberated after the invasion of Normandy, it was supposed to be destroyed, but it survived due to one man's act of disobedience. 


After liberation, the city witnessed incredible acts of reprisal and vengeance. 


Learn more about the occupation and liberation of Paris on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Operation Barbarossa (Encore)

On June 22, 1941, German forces crossed into the Soviet Union. It was, and remains, the largest military operation in human history. The force that the Germans assembled for the invasion was staggering, consisting of over 3 million men.


However, the decision to go to war with the Soviets and break the alliance Germany had with them has puzzled historians for decades. 


It ultimately was an extremely costly failure that resulted in the deaths of tens of millions of people. 


Learn more about Operation Barbarossa, the German invasion of the Soviet Union, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - A History of Lead (Encore)

Sometime around eight to nine thousand years ago, ancient people in Asia Minor found a very dull grey metal that turned out to be easy to manipulate when it was heated.


For thousands of years, it was used for a variety of purposes, including as a food additive.

With the advent of the Industrial Revolution, even more uses were found for this unique metal. 


However, by the 20th century, scientists realized that maybe this stuff wasn’t really so good for us. 


Learn more about lead, how it has been used throughout history, and how our perception of it has changed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud

The Solar System is a pretty big place. When most people think of our Solar System, they probably think of the Sun, the planets, and all their moons.

Only in the last few years, with the advent of larger telescopes and better techniques, have we been able to learn more about the outer edge of our Solar System.


Learn about the Kuiper Belt, Oort Cloud, and the outer reaches of the solar system on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
