Everything Everywhere Daily - The Knights Templar

In the early 12th century, a military monastic order developed in the Middle East with the express intent of protecting Christian pilgrims traveling to the Holy Land.

Despite its rather modest mission statement, over the next 200 years, this organization became one of the most powerful entities throughout the Middle East and Europe. 

However, its success and power eventually planted the seeds of its own destruction.

Learn more about the Knights Templar, their rise and spectacular fall, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Commentary Magazine Podcast - Biden’s Building a Wall, It’s Gonna Be Huge

Today's podcast scratches its head at the news that Joe Biden is...building a border wall? And throwing $9 billion in debt-relief aid at student loans even though the Supreme Court said his last plan was unconstitutional? Meanwhile, in New York, Trump's argument that the fraud case against him is "election interference" is getting pretty good support from...the judge in the case? And the state attorney general?

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Disappearance of Glenn Miller

Throughout the Second World War, one of the world’s most popular musicians was the American big band leader Glenn Miller. 

He had a string of hits over a very short period of time, and his music is so synonymous with that period that it can be heard in almost every movie and documentary about the war.

However, just before Christmas 1944, just a few months before the war in Europe would be over, Glenn Miller disappeared in a flight over the English Channel. 

Learn more about Glenn Miller and his disappearance on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Art Spiegelman reissues ‘Breakdowns’ with new perspective on book bans

Author and cartoonist Art Spiegelman is familiar with the hysteria surrounding certain library books. In today's episode, he tells NPR's Scott Simon about how comic book burnings during his childhood in the 1950s weren't all that different from book bans taking place across the country today. Spiegelman says that though they tackled difficult subjects, he found then – and continues to find today – great emotional power in comics, such as his reissued collection Breakdowns. And he says he's felt deeply unsettled by the ongoing challenges against these kinds of books.
