Everything Everywhere Daily - Uncontacted Peoples (Encore)

If you are listening to me speak these words, regardless of where in the world you live, you are part of a global network we call human civilization. You share in the ideas, technology, and goods created worldwide and by people in your community.

Most people on the planet are a part of this system.

But not everyone. Some people have remained separated from this system and still live in their traditional ways today.

Learn more about uncontacted people, who they are, and where they live on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Rebecca Yarros on literary tropes, writing through chronic illness and ‘Fourth Wing’

Rebecca Yarros is the author of The Empyrean series, a wildly popular collection of "romantasy" novels. In a conversation with NPR's Emily Kwong at this year's National Book Festival, Yarros said she wanted to plot an enemies-to-lovers story when she began writing Fourth Wing, the first book in this series. In today's episode, Yarros talks about the genre tropes she tries to embrace and avoid in her writing. She also discusses working through a chronic illness, how history and politics shape her stories, and the influence of her husband's military experience on how she approaches themes of violence in her work.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Lizzie Borden

On August 4, 1892, in Fall River, Massachusetts, an incredibly grizzly event took place. 

Andrew and his wife, Abby Borden, were brutally murdered by repeated strikes with a hatchet to their heads. 

The primary suspect in the case was their daughter, Lizzie. In the subsequent trial, there wasn’t enough evidence to convict, and ever since, people have wondered if Lizzie did, in fact, kill her parents, and if she didn’t, who did?

Learn more about Lizzie Borden and Borden's murders on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
