Everything Everywhere Daily - Canada Day
Every July 1, the people of Canada celebrate their national holiday of Canada Day.
The day dates back over 150 years, and despite what many people think, the day isn’t exactly Canadian Independence Day.
Also, for most of the time the day has been celebrated, it wasn’t even called Canada Day, which can provide an insight as to what the day was originally celebrating.
Learn more about Canada Day, its origins, and how it is celebrated on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Pod Save America - Strict Scrutiny on the Supreme Court’s Student Debt Relief and Gay Rights Decisions
The Supreme Court ended its term today with a double whammy, issuing opinions in the 303 Creative case and the student debt relief cases. In the former, the majority creates “a constitutional right to refuse to serve members of a protected class.” And in the latter, the majority invalidates the Biden administration’s student debt relief program because, well, they had feelings about it. We're bringing you the latest bonus pod on these cases from Strict Scrutiny.
Hosted by three badass constitutional law professors – Leah Litman, Kate Shaw, and Melissa Murray – Strict Scrutiny provides in-depth, accessible, and irreverent analysis of the Supreme Court and its cases, culture, and personalities. New episodes out every Monday… plus bonuses whenever SCOTUS takes away another one of our rights.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Origin of Words and Phrases: Shakespeare Edition
Of all the billions of people who have spoken English, one person has probably impacted the language more than any other.
The person who is considered the greatest playwright in the language is also responsible for adding more words and phrases than anyone else.
His impact on the language is due not only to his skill and output as a writer but also to the fact that he wrote his works when modern English was being created.
Learn more about the word and phrases which came to us from William Shakespeare on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
