The Commentary Magazine Podcast - Two Years of Putin’s Monstrous War

Today's podcast points out that, as we move into the third year of Russia's effort to swallow up Ukraine whole, the great dysfunction seems not to be taking place in Ukraine, or Russia, or on the battlefield, but inside the American political process—with majorities supporting aid to Ukraine but the House unwilling to allow a vote. Can this stand? What is going on? And what is going on with AI? Give a listen.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The 13th Amendment (Encore)

The American Civil War wasn’t just a military conflict. There was also a major political and legal struggle that took place alongside the military campaigns. 

In the last months of the war, President Abraham Lincoln knew that if the war was to truly be the end of the conflict, it was necessary to ban slavery once and for all. 

That would require changing the constitution.

Learn more about the 13th Amendment and the battle for its ratification on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘Fierce Ambition’ and ‘The Lede’ look inside the world of journalism

Today's episode focuses on two books about legendary journalists, the business of reporting and the state of the industry today. First, NPR's Mary Louise Kelly speaks with Jennet Conant about Fierce Ambition, a biography of war correspondent Maggie Higgins – the first woman to win a Pulitzer for foreign correspondence, who also resented being defined by her gender. Then, NPR's Scott Simon asks The New Yorker's Calvin Trillin about The Lede, an introspection into the realities of being a reporter, the careers of Edna Buchanan and R.W. "Johnny" Apple, and so much more.

Pod Save America - Trump’s 2nd Term: Military in the Streets, Mike Johnson in the Sheets

Trump and his allies make it clear that a second term would be much more extreme than the first, from Christian nationalists running the White House to military raids and internment camps. The Alabama Supreme Court's ruling that stopped IVF in the state could be a sign of things to come. Nikki Haley says she plans to stay in the race no matter what happens in Saturday’s South Carolina primary and Joe Biden provides student debt relief to another 150,000 Americans. Finally, Wisconsin Democratic Party Chair Ben Wikler joins to talk about the new legislative maps that have finally ended one of the worst gerrymanders in the country.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Pearls

Centuries ago, the most expensive jewelry in the world wasn’t made of diamonds, rubies, or emeralds. 

Rather, they were made from an extremely rare substance that was occasionally found inside of mollusks: pearls.

Pearls were so valuable that they would only be possessed by kings, queens, and emperors. 

Today, the manner in which pearls are made is pretty much the same, but they are more common than at any point in history. 

Learn more about pearls, how they are made, and how they have been harvested throughout history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘Thank You Please Come Again’ pays homage to Southern gas station food shops

Photojournalist Kate Medley took a road trip across 11 states in the South, documenting the culture of convenience stores and gas stations that serve hot, delicious food. Her new book, Thank You Please Come Again, captures how these establishments serve as important community meeting points across class, ethnic and racial divides. In today's episode, Medley speaks to NPR's Debbie Elliott about how communities of color are playing an important role in this Southern tradition, and how it's manifesting in dishes like cajun banh mis and jollof rice.
