Bad Faith - Episode 361 Promo – A Thing Called Destiny (w/ Norman Finkelstein)

Subscribe to Bad Faith on Patreon to instantly unlock this episode and our entire premium episode library: http://patreon.com/badfaithpodcast 

In a conversation sprawling over two hours, friend of the pod and preeminent Gaza historian Norman Finkelstein returns to Bad Faith to unpack his recent debate with Twitch streamer Destiny (Steven Bonnell) and historian Benny Morris on Lex Fridman Podcast, the latest on the sexual assault allegations against Hamas, Norm's mother's experience testifying against Nazi Adolf Eichmann, and, finally, Marianne Williamson's recent comments on this show pertaining to criticisms Norm's made of her in the past. Even two and a half hours of recording isn't enough time when Norm and Brie hop on a mic together -- and Brie regrets not closing her Apple Watch rings before she started recording -- but, as always, it was a rich and stimulating conversation. You won't want to miss this one.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Telemark Raids (Encore)

During World War II, one of the biggest concerns of the Allies was the development of a German atomic bomb. 

As such, the allies and various partisan groups in occupied countries made the destruction of anything related to the Nazi atomic program a high priority.

One place, in particular, was subject to allied bombing, commando missions, and partisan sabotage throughout the war. 

Learn more about the Telemark Raids and how Norway became an important front in the Second World War on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Hanif Abdurraqib’s new book ponders LeBron James, growing up and going home

Hanif Abdurraqib's new book, There's Always This Year, is difficult even for the author to summarize — it's part memoir, part basketball analysis, part poetry and essay collections. In today's episode, the MacArthur Fellow and writer speaks with NPR's Scott Detrow about how growing up in Columbus, Ohio, watching LeBron James' spectacular ascent, and understanding the passage of time all led to a meditation on mortality and success.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Kidnapping of Charley Ross (Encore)

Most children growing up are admonished not to take candy from strangers. 

It is good advice, but it isn’t advice that comes from nowhere. It comes from a particular incident 150 years ago that shocked the world and changed how we view children’s safety.

It was an event, the echos of which can be seen today in efforts to find abducted children.

Learn more about the kidnapping of Charley Ross on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Solar Eclipses

Every few years, somewhere on Earth, is witness to one of the planet's greatest sights: a total eclipse.

A total solar eclipse is rare, but it can be calculated centuries in advance. 

However, that wasn’t always the case. For thousands of years, solar eclipses were rare events that were considered to be bad omens. 

Learn more about solar eclipses, how they work, and how people have dealt with them throughout history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
