Everything Everywhere Daily - The History of Camping

We are all familiar with camping, and many of us go camping or camp regularly. Enjoying the great outdoors with friends and family can be an enjoyable experience.

However, camping has a history that is unlike most things in humanity. The path from the ancient world to luxury glamping was not straight. 

Despite having very ancient roots, what we know today as camping is a relatively modern phenomenon. 

Learn more about the history of camping and how we went from the rugged outdoors to luxury experiences on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - In ‘Soil,’ Camille Dungy weaves together gardening, race and motherhood

For poet Camille Dungy, environmental justice, community interdependence and political engagement go hand in hand. She explores those relationships in her book, Soil: The Story of a Black Mother's Garden. In it, she details how her experience trying to diversify the species growing in her yard, in a predominantly white town in Colorado, reflects larger themes of how we talk about land and race in the U.S. In today's episode, she tells NPR's Melissa Block about the journey that gardening put her on, and what it's revealed about who gets to write about the environment.

The Indicator from Planet Money - Why Venezuela is no longer in freefall

We ask Gabriela and two other Venezuelans: what are economic conditions like at the moment? How has life changed since the pandemic? Some of the answers surprised us.

The Commentary Magazine Podcast - Biden Withholds

The news that the Biden administration has deliberately chosen to withhold certain armaments from Israel despite the passage of the aid bill last month is a landmark moment not only in the peculiar behavior of the White House toward the Jewish state since October 7 but also in the annals of American warfare. We don't try to win wars any longer; are we now committed to ensuring that other nations can't win wars either? Give a listen.
