Everything Everywhere Daily - Amateur Radio

The early days of radio were like the wild west. There were no rules, and that lack of rules often led to problems. 

Eventually, frequency regulations were put into place, which left a large swatch of spectrum available to amateur radio operators. 

Over time, these operators created a worldwide community that predated the internet by decades. It is still a community that exists today with thousands of people around the world.

Learn more about amateur radio and its origins on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Pod Save America - Trump’s Made for TV Occupation of D.C.

Flanked by half his cabinet and citing crimes against a DOGE staffer, Donald Trump announces that he’s deploying 800 National Guard troops to Washington and federalizing the city’s police department. Jon and Lovett react to Trump's desperate show of force, then break down his new plan to negotiate a Russia-Ukraine peace deal and JD Vance’s latest attempt to spin the Epstein files crisis as “full transparency.” Then, Lovett talks to The New Yorker’s David Kirkpatrick about his big new investigation into how much the Trump family is profiting off of the presidency.
