Everything Everywhere Daily - The History of Tea

Sometimes over 3000 years ago, somewhere in Southwestern China, a leaf from the Camellia sinensis plant accidentally found its way into a pot of boiling water. 

Noticing that the leaf had turned the water a different color, some person unknown to history drank the concoction and found that it was good. 

That was the start of something which is today a globe-spanning multi-billion dollar industry that millions of people indulge in every day.

Learn more about tea, its origins, and how it spread around the world on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘Soil’ weaves together a poet’s experience of gardening, race and community

For poet Camille Dungy, environmental justice, community interdependence and political engagement go hand in hand. She explores those relationships in her new book, Soil: The Story of a Black Mother's Garden. In it, she details how her experience trying to diversify the species growing in her yard, in a predominantly white town in Colorado, reflects larger themes of how we talk about land and race in the U.S. In today's episode, she tells NPR's Melissa Block about the journey that gardening put her on, and what it's revealed about who gets to write about the environment.

The Commentary Magazine Podcast - Does Trump Have a Plan?

Today's podcast takes up the raging "truths" (tweets) released by Donald Trump this weekend on his social-media site, which seem reckless and possibly threatening to his defense strategy and to his ability to stay out of jail. Is there a strategy here? And foreign policy has taken a backseat for months—but now guess what? The Chinese, the Russians, and others are testing and prodding us to see how we respond. How are we responding? Give a listen.
