Everything Everywhere Daily - Peanuts

One of the world’s most popular snack foods is peanuts. 

Peanuts are consumed by themselves as a snack, processed in the form of peanut butter, and can be made into peanut oil. 

Hundreds of different products, including plastics, dyes, cosmetics, paper, and soap, have all been derived from peanut plants.

However, unlike other popular foods, for some people, the consumption of peanuts can actually be deadly.

Learn more about peanuts, their history, and their uses on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Colson Whitehead’s novel ‘The Nickel Boys’ comes to the big screen

Colson Whitehead's 2019 novel The Nickel Boys follows the studious and idealistic Elwood Curtis, a Black teenager whose prized possession is a recording of speeches by Martin Luther King Jr. But when Elwood is sent to a juvenile reformatory in Florida, his worldview is challenged by the horrors he experiences there. Now, Whitehead's novel has been adapted into a film. In today's episode, we revisit a conversation between Whitehead and NPR's Scott Simon, where they discuss the real-life reform school that inspired Nickel Academy, MLK's idea of soul force, and Whitehead's strong emotional reaction to the characters in his novel.
