Everything Everywhere Daily - Homing Pigeons

Before the development of electricity and electrical communications, the fastest information could travel was the speed of a horse. Maybe a ship might have been a bit faster depending on the route, but for the most part, the speed of information was limited to the speed of a human. 

However, there was one exception to this. It was a communications method that could only carry small amounts of information, it only worked in one direction, and the number of messages you could send was limited, but it was faster than anything else. 

It was used for centuries and was still relied upon even after the development of radio.

Learn more about homing pigeons and how they were used throughout history on this Episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Domain Name System

Behind almost every web page, email, and podcast is a system that translates addresses understandable to humans to something which can be understood by computers.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The History of Military Ranks

Every military in the world is a hierarchal organization. There are people at the top who make decisions, people down below who follow those orders, and people in between who make it happen. 

Today, most militaries have an elaborate rank structure with multiple ranks in the chain of command. 

However, it wasn’t always like that. The modern system of ranks evolved over time, and the ranks that exist today have origins that go back centuries. 

Learn more about military ranks, where they came from, and what they mean on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Senegal and The Gambia

Nestled in the heart of West Africa lie two nations with distinct identities yet tied together by a common geography and history: Senegal and The Gambia.

The landscape of this region wasn’t always as fragmented as it is now. It wasn’t until the 19th century that it was carved into the separate entities we recognize today, a division that has persisted into contemporary times.

Efforts have been made to bridge the divide, but the boundary between these two countries still presents challenges.

Learn more about the fascinating story of Senegal and The Gambia and how their odd borders came to be on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The History of Postal Delivery (Encore)

Since humans began to adopt writing systems, they also created systems for passing along written messages. 

For thousands of years, it would have been possible to get messages to distant parts of whatever empire or kingdom you happened to live in, provided you found the right courier and had enough money.
