Everything Everywhere Daily - The Abdication of Edward VIII
In December 1936, the United Kingdom underwent its greatest constitutional crisis of the 20th century.
The king, Edward VIII, abdicated the throne to marry an American divorcee. This might not seem like a scandal today, but at the time, it threatened to collapse the entire British government when Europe was on the brink of war.
The aftermath of the abdication crisis saw the rise of a new king and the birth of an entirely new royal line, a legacy that endures to this day.
Learn more about the abdication of Edward VIII, why it happened, and its fallout on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Kara Swisher’s memoir ‘Burn Book’ reflects on a career covering Silicon Valley
Journalist Kara Swisher, who's been covering the internet and the tech industry for decades, says she's not surprised when people like Steve Jobs or Elon Musk lie to her — but what she says they sometimes don't realize is how much they lie to themselves. Her new memoir, Burn Book, recounts what she's learned in conversation with some of the brightest minds in Silicon Valley. In today's episode, Swisher tells NPR's Steve Inskeep that as disillusioned as she is with how much harm the industry has caused, she's still optimistic about the future of tech and AI.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Drake Equation (Encore)
In 1961, at the Green Bank observatory in West Virginia, a small conference was held for astrophysicists. The meeting was organized by Cornell University professor and astronomer Frank Drake.
The subject of the conference was the search for extraterrestrial life.
In preparation for the conference, he jotted down his thoughts in the form of an equation. An equation that has changed how we think about life on other worlds.
Learn more about the Drake Equation and the variables that make it up on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The North Africa Campaign
Before the Allied invasions of Normandy or Sicily in World War II, the ground war against Germany and Italy was first fought in North Africa.
The reason why there was even a conflict in Africa was a combination of geography and history. Even though it doesn’t get the attention the war in Asia or Europe receives, the war in North Africa was pivotal to the ultimate resolution of the war in Europe.
Had things gone differently, the entire course of the war would have changed.
Learn more about the North Africa Campaign, why it was fought and how it was resolved on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
