Everything Everywhere Daily - The History of Railways
Over the last 200 years, railroads have been one of the most important methods of transportation. Railroads helped make the modern world. They are capable of transporting people and goods quickly over long distances at a low cost.
However, most people would be shocked to learn that railways predate the development of locomotives. In fact, the earliest evidence of using some sort of premade track dates back thousands of years before the first locomotive.
…and despite the development of new and faster forms of transportation, rails look to continue to have a bright future.
Learn more about railways, their history, and their future on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Hong Kong
Located on a peninsula and series of islands off the southeastern coast of China lies what is today called the Special Administrative Region of Hong Kong.
Hong Kong didn’t play a central role in the thousands of years of Chinese history. However, it has played a pivotal role in the region for the last 200 years.
It went from being a backwater to becoming one of the most important financial and business hubs in the world.
Learn more about Hong Kong, its past, present and future on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Miyamoto Musashi
In the early 17th century, Japan was witness to a samurai who was arguably its greatest warrior.
He wasn’t just one of the greatest swordsmen in history; he was a philosopher, a writer, an artist, and, in contravention to the samurai code at the time, he was a vagabond.
Today, he is considered a saint of Japanese martial arts, and he has been portrayed in Japanese movies and books.
Learn more about Miyamoto Musashi, Japan’s greatest swordsman on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
