Everything Everywhere Daily - The Invention of the Telephone (Encore)

The 19th century was one of rapid technological advancement. 

Of all of the innovations to come out of this century, and there were many, perhaps none was more important than that of the telephone. 

The telephone radically changed communications, allowing personal communications over long distances. 

Despite what many people are often told, this invention wasn’t simply the genius of one man, but was rather something developed over decades. 

Learn more about the invention of the telephone and the controversial story surrounding it on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Rasputin

In the early 20th century, the Russian Tsar Nicholas II and his wife, the Tsarina Alexandra, welcomed a homeless monk into their home. 

As this scruff, unkempt-looking man became closer to the royal family, he seemingly performed miracles, predicted the future, and cured illnesses. 

He starts to gain influence over the Imperial Family, too much influence for comfort. 

So, a group of nobles decided that he needed to be eliminated. However, that proved to be much easier said than done.

Learn about Rasputin, the magical man who wouldn’t die, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
