Insurance seems like a pretty modern concept. There are insurance commercials on television, and insurance companies sponsor major sports teams. 

Most of us have to buy insurance, or we are at least under someone else’s insurance policy.

However, insurance is far from a modern concept. It is actually one of the oldest financial arrangements in human history.

Learn more about insurance, how it was created, and how it works on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Alex is 22 years old and staying with a much older, wealthy man in the Hamptons. She's the protagonist of Emma Cline's new novel, an outsider looking in at the perfectly pruned life people of a certain social status lead in these towns. In today's episode, Cline speaks with NPR's Mary Louise Kelly about how her heroine navigates the unfamiliar world she finds herself in, and how power is so unequally wielded in those spaces.

John J. Miller is joined by John F. Wukovits to discuss his new book, 'Lost at Sea.'

In 1585, Sir Walter Raleigh established an English colony on an island in what is today the state of North Carolina.

After a slow start, over 100 people moved to the island to start a new life and establish this English outpost at the edge of the new world. 

When a ship returned to the colony in 1590, what they found shocked them and began a mystery that remains unsolved to this day.

Learn more about the Lost Colony of Roanoke and the puzzle that still challenges historians on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

It's been three years since George Floyd's murder. Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison prosecuted the former police officers who killed Floyd, but accountability and justice is not always found in state-sponsored violence against Black Americans. In his new book, Break the Wheel: Ending the Cycle of Police Violence, Ellison retraces the case. As he tells NPR's Leila Fadel, the book – and his experience – is also proof that systems can change to prevent future tragedies.
