In the last days of the first world war, an event occurred which resulted in the rapid collapse of the German monarchy, and ultimately hastened the surrender of Germany and the end of the war. 


The event was sparked by sailors in the German High Seas Fleet who after suffering from months of low morale, finally decided to stop taking orders. 


Learn more about the Kiel Mutiny and how it shaped the outcome of the first world war and the future of Germany, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Writer Arthur Brooks says strivers can end up unhappier later in life

Social science writer Arthur Brooks has figured out how you, yes you, can be happy later in life. He details it all in his new book, From Strength to Strength, but the gist of it is...maybe relax a little. Brooks argues that for people who work too hard to have it all it can be very upsetting when that part of their life is over. The good news is you can start working on your future happiness now. Brooks told NPR's Mary Louise Kelly you have to do the work when you're younger: You can't "leave your happiness up to chance."

During the second world war, one of the biggest efforts of the war was the Manhattan Project: the secret American program to create an atomic bomb. 

The scientists and staff of the Manhattan Project were in a race to beat Nazi Germany to be the first country to build the A-bomb. When Germany surrendered in May 1945, and Americans detonated the first device in July, they had seemingly won the race.

But was it in fact a race at all? How close were the Nazis to actually building an atom bomb? 

Learn more about the Nazi nuclear program on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Located near the city of Masvingo in Central Zimbabwe are the ruins of one of the greatest civilizations of the Middle Ages. 


When European explorers first discovered the ruins, they simply couldn’t believe that it was built by native Africans. 


Subsequent archeological investigations show not just that they were wrong, but that the civilization which was there had contact with some of the furthest reaches of the known world. 


Learn more about Great Zimbabwe, one of Africa’s greatest empires, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
