On September 13, 1848, a 25-year-old man named Phineas Gage received a horrific brain injury while working on a railroad in Vermont. The odds of anyone surviving such an accident were a million to one. 

Yet, despite astronomical odds, he survived his injury and he became a case study for neuroscientists ever since. 

Learn more about Phineas Gage and his incredible story, and how it helped us to understand the workings of the human brain, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The British Peerage and Honors System

Subscribe to the podcast! 

https://podfollow.com/everythingeverywhere/


As an outsider, the British peerage system is really confusing. There are princes, dukes, earls, and barons. 


Some of the titles are hereditary, and some of them are not. 


The titles have a hierarchy, but is a viscount higher or lower in status than a marquess, and is a baron higher or lower than an earl?


Learn more about the British peerage system, how it works, and the structure of it all, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

For centuries, humans have built canals to facilitate the transportation of people and goods. 


Usually, they are built to dramatically save time, like how the Panama and Suez canals can help avoid a trip around an entire continent.


However, there is currently a canal being built that is designed to replicate a natural feature that already exists. 


..and it might actually make sense. 


Learn more about the Istanbul Canal and why it is being built, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

https://podfollow.com/everythingeverywhere/


Ancient Rome had an enormous number of customs and traditions. Some of them have been passed down to us in the names of our months, or the letters in the Latin alphabet. 


However, they also had a lot of very customs which to us seem very strange. 


One of the strangest, and most powerful to the Romans, were the traditions surrounding the Roman city limits, aka the pomerium. 


Learn more about the Roman pomerium, and how seriously the Romans took it, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
