Everything Everywhere Daily - Permutations and Combinations

Whenever there is a lottery, the odds of winning are given. 

If you go to a pizzeria, they might tell you the number of possible pizzas that can be made, given their toppings. 

If you have a combination lock, it is secured because of the number of different solutions that are possible.

All of these things might seem different, but they are all part of the same branch of mathematics. 

Learn more about Permutations and Combinations and how they work on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Poet Hanif Abdurraqib reflects on the ways grief has shaped his spirituality

In his new book, A Little Devil in America, poet Hanif Abdurraqib writes about music in such a way that NPR's Rachel Martin wanted to focus a conversation about spiritual transcendence related to it. What came out, however, was a deep discussion about how losing his mother and close friends early in life created its own kind of spiritual practice for Abdurraqib. In today's episode, he explains how "grief makes a home within us" and why that might actually be a good thing.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Space Elevators

You’ve probably seen footage of a rocket launch. There is a bunch of smoke and fire as the rocket lifts off to begin its flight to achieve an altitude and velocity which will get it into orbit. 

It works, but it requires a lot of energy to get even a small amount of mass into the Earth’s orbit. 


What if there was a way to travel into space that didn’t require a rocket? What if going into Earth orbit could be just as easy as going up to the top floor of a skyscraper?

Learn more about space elevators and how they could revolutionize space travel on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘Monsters’ examines fandom and how we consume art by morally compromised people

In the midst of the #MeToo movement in 2017, Claire Dederer posed a difficult question in The Paris Review: "What Do We Do With the Art of Monstrous Men?" From that viral essay comes her new book, Monsters, which examines how we morally engage with – or don't – musicians, authors and actors whose work we love, when we condemn their personal actions. In today's episode, Dederer tells NPR's Ayesha Rascoe how this question first arose for her around Roman Polanski movies, and how complex and personal it is to try to separate the art from the artist.
