Everything Everywhere Daily - Napoleon’s Hundred Days

After years of war throughout the continent of Europe, in 1814, Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte abdicated and was exiled to the small island of Elba off the coast of Italy. 

The European powers thought that they had seen the last of Napoleon. However, they were wrong. 

He came back and, in a shockingly short period of time, regained control of France and its army. 

Learn more about Napoleon’s 100 Days and the last gasp of the Emperor of the French on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - In the new book ‘Want,’ Gillian Anderson collects other women’s sexual fantasies

The actress Gillian Anderson plays a sex therapist on Netflix's Sex Education. Now, in her off-screen life, Anderson has taken on a similar role: gathering the sexual fantasies of women from around the world. The result, Want, is an edited collection of anonymous submissions exploring women's intimate desires and the spectrum of female sexuality. In today's episode, Anderson speaks with NPR's Mary Louise Kelly about the 1970s book that inspired the project, how the changing media landscape has influenced how women think about sex and the difficulty of asking for what we really want.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Godfather

In 1972, one of the greatest movies ever made was released: The Godfather. 

The Godfather is not only one of the most critically acclaimed movies in history but was also one of the most successful at the box office.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘City in Ruins’ is the finale of the Danny Ryan trilogy–and of Don Winslow’s career

Novelist Don Winslow says City in Ruins is his last book. The third novel in the author's Danny Ryan trilogy completes the series, a contemporary crime epic that draws inspiration from Greek and Roman classics like The Aeneid. In today's episode, Winslow talks with NPR's Scott Simon about working on this trilogy over the course of 30 years and his kinship with the novels' protagonist. They also discuss Winslow's decision to retire, which he says is partially motivated by a desire to invest more energy into political activism.
