Everything Everywhere Daily - Route 66

In the early 20th century, as automobiles became more and more popular, the need for a national system of roads in the United States became more evident. 

One of the suggested roads connected the city of Chicago, Illinois, on the Great Lakes, with the city of Los Angeles, California, on the Pacific Ocean. 

In 1926 the route was established, following paths and trails which had been used for centuries, and quickly found itself as a central object of popular culture. 

Learn more about Route 66, its history, and its legacy on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Bangles cofounder Susanna Hoffs’ first novel follows a one-hit wonder, 10 years later

The protagonist of Susanna Hoffs' debut novel, Jane Start, probably listens to Dionne Warwick to hype herself up in the morning. Start is 33 and living with her parents – her days of pop stardom, for one song, are 10 years behind her. But in This Bird Has Flown, a romantic spark reignites a second chance for her creative endeavors, too. In today's episode, Hoffs tells NPR's Andrew Limbong how her own experiences as a rockstar influenced the story, which she's now adapting into a feature film.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The WOW! Signal

On August 15, 1977, for a period of 72 seconds, the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence had its greatest moment. 

A signal was received like none other before or since. 

However, in the over 45 years since the signal was recorded, astronomers have been unable to relocate it or even figure out what it was. 

Learn more about the WOW! Signal, why it was important, and what it could have been, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Questions & Answers: Volume 9

As I do every month, I went to the Temple of Jupiter Capitolinus to meet with the Augurs. I met an old priest, and I asked him, “Quo die est felicissimum?”

He looked at a flock of birds that appeared to be flying in a circle. He saw a cloud float past the sun, and he noticed that the sacred chickens had paused in their eating. 

Having read the signs, he turned to me and said, “Primo Saturni in Augusta.”

As getting advice from chickens and clouds can’t possibly be wrong, stay tuned for Questions & Answers: Volume 9 on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

More or Less: Behind the Stats - Are the media exaggerating how hot it is in the Mediterranean?

Reports on heatwaves across the globe have dominated our newsfeeds over the last few weeks, with temperatures said to have soared over the 40C mark in many parts of Europe. But across social media, not everyone is buying it. A trickle of scepticism swelled to a tidal surge, with people questioning whether temperatures are being hyped up by the wider media to drive fear and scare-monger.

In this programme, we unpick allegations made about how these temperatures are recorded - and if they are accurate. We hear from Samantha Burgess at the Copernicus Climate Change Service; Alessandro Delitala from the Sardinia Environmental Protection Agency; and Sean Buchan from Climate Action Against Disinformation. Presenter: Paul Connolly Producer: Natasha Fernandes Editor: Richard Vadon Production Co-ordinator: Brenda Brown Sound Engineer: Rod Farquhar
