Everything Everywhere Daily - The RMS Titanic

On April 15, 1912, one of the greatest disasters in modern nautical history took place. 

The RMS Titanic, one of the most celebrated ships of its era, struck an iceberg and sank on its inaugural voyage. 

While the story of the Titanic is well known, it has been exaggerated throughout the years, and there are many misconceptions about the ship and its sinking that have persisted to this day.

Learn more about the RMS Titanic, its conceptualization, building, and sinking on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Pod Save America - Mile High Bribe Club

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a bribe! President Trump, just before setting off on a tour of the Gulf states, announces that he plans to accept a $400 million luxury jet from the Qatari royal family — one of the largest and most brazenly corrupt gifts ever received by an American president. House Republicans finally release details of their proposed cuts to Medicaid, but will their plan to cut the health insurance of 9 million Americans find enough support from moderates and hard-liners? And, of course, there's more tariff news, with the administration announcing a 90-day-pause (kind of) in the trade war with China. Jon, Lovett, and Tommy talk about Democrats' response to Trump's shiny new bribe, Stephen Miller's recent attacks on habeas corpus, and why the president's new drug pricing executive order isn't a serious solution to lower the cost of prescription drugs. Then, Tommy sits down with his doppelgänger, Rob Sand, to talk about Sand's campaign for Iowa governor.
