Everything Everywhere Daily - The History of Whaling

Whaling is something that humans have engaged in for thousands of years.


For most of that time, indigenous groups conducted it on a small scale for survival purposes.


Over time, whaling became commercialized, the annual whale harvest exploded, and whaling became a cornerstone of the early industrial revolution. 


Alas, it couldn’t last forever.


Learn more about whaling, its rise, and its fall, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - In two noir novels, crime lurks beneath small town life in Norway and New England

In their new noir novels, authors Joseph Finder and Jo Nesbø choose small towns as the settings for dark plotlines. First, Finder's The Oligarch's Daughter follows a man named Paul who has built a new life under a new name in New Hampshire. He's on the run from a Russian oligarch, who happens to be his father-in-law. In today's episode, Finder speaks with NPR's Mary Louise Kelly about the difficulty of disappearing in today's era of surveillance technology, the difference between typical wealth and oligarch wealth, and how the Russian oligarch class' status has shifted under President Vladimir Putin. Then, one of the protagonists in Nesbø's Blood Ties is Roy, a 35-year-old mass murderer who's ready to start a family. Nesbø says his challenge was to make Roy someone readers could root for. In today's episode, the author speaks with NPR's Kelly about a piece of advice he received from Christopher Nolan, the way small towns hold secrets, and how writing lyrics prepared him to write novels.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Earth’s Magnetic Pole Reversals (Encore)

Once every 450,000 years or so, the Earth undergoes a radical transformation. 


The planet’s magnetic field will literally flip. The North Pole becomes the South Pole and vice versa. 


Despite the fact that we know this has happened many times in the Earth’s history, we really don’t know what would happen if the poles were to reverse today.


Learn more about when the Earth’s magnetic poles reverse on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
