Everything Everywhere Daily - The United States Presidential Nominating System

The United States Constitution lays out a set procedure for the election of a president and how a winner is determined from various candidates. 

However, it says absolutely nothing about how those candidates are determined in the first place. 

Since the first presidential election, the process by which parties have chosen their candidates has changed multiple times and quite dramatically.

Learn more about the United States Presidential Nominating System on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Author of The Chronic Crisis of American Democracy: The Way Is Shut Benjamin Studebaker joins Bad Faith to explain why he thinks the solutions offered by the U.S. pundit class are selling little more than false hope and podcast subscriptions (with exceptions). What about our system makes the Democracy crisis "chronic," why should we not be concerned about threats to democracy from Donald Trump, and what's the solution not being offered by the fallen elites that comprise the media class?

Everything Everywhere Daily - Numbers Stations

If you ever stay up at night scanning through frequencies on shortwave radio, there is a good chance you might come across something very odd and kind of creepy. 

You will find a station that is nothing but a disembodied voice reading off a seemingly random string of numbers. There is often an identifying sound or song which is played on a regular basis before another recital of numbers. 

These stations have no call signs or other identifying information, and no one has ever publicly claimed responsibility for them. 

Learn more about numbers stations, what they are, and how they work on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Yangsze Choo’s ‘The Fox Wife’ explores gender, murder and folklore in the 1900s

Yangsze Choo says she doesn't thoroughly plan out her novels – her newest, The Fox Wife, blossomed from that core idea behind the title, of a woman who also happens to be a fox. But beyond that, it's a story about a mother avenging her child, about a murder investigation in early 20th century China, and about family curses. As the author tells NPR's Scott Simon, foxes hold a wide range of intrigue and mystery in Chinese, Korean and Japanese legends — and it's these traits that broke open a whole world of secrets for her characters.
