Before she founded the riot grrrl movement of the 1990s, Kathleen Hanna was a teenager volunteering at a rape and domestic violence shelter in Olympia, Washington. In today's episode, the Bikini Kill and Le Tigre frontwoman tells NPR's Kelly McEvers how the anger and grief she absorbed there manifested into lyrics and performances that would take the punk and music scenes by storm. That story is at the heart of Hanna's memoir, Rebel Girl, which also grapples with setting boundaries, carrying the feminist torch of a generation and lending a hand to younger bands.

John J. Miller is joined by Mary Margaret Olohan to discuss her new book, 'Detrans.'

Money is a very strange thing. All of us use it. We spend it, earn it, and save it. We know it when we see it.

Yet, even some of the world’s best economists have a very hard time defining it. 

It has been around for thousands of years, yet innovation is still being made with it today.

Learn more about the history of money, how it came about, and how it developed over time on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

There's a lot of tragedy that goes into watching your home erupt into a battlefield. But journalist Illia Ponomarenko says as the Russian military seized city after city in their latest invasion of Ukraine, people also came together in beautiful ways. His new memoir, I Will Show You How It Was, recounts what living – and covering – the war has been like so far. In today's episode, The Kyiv Independent co-founder speaks with NPR's Scott Simon about Ukrainians' willingness to fight for their country, what life is like in Bucha today and the unexpected way he met his girlfriend's parents.

A common occurrence at many universities is that they have contentious relationships with their local community. 

This is not a recent development. It is something that has existed ever since universities were developed. 

The relationship between colleges and local towns was probably at its worst in 1355 when an outbreak of violence occurred at Oxford University.

Learn more about The St. Scholastica Day Riot and its 500-year legacy with the local community on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The month of June was originally called Iunius by the Romans. It originally had 29 days and was the fourth month of the year. 

Today, it has 30 days, and it is the sixth month of the year. 

It used to be a bad omen to be married in June, and now it is the most popular month to be married in.

However, despite all the changes in June, there is one thing that has remained constant: questions and answers.

Stay tuned for the 19th installment of Questions and Answers on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In August of 1964, an event occurred off the waters of North Vietnam that would have repercussions that would echo in US foreign policy for decades. 

Two alleged confrontations between US Navy vessels and North Vietnamese ships set off a chain of events that resulted in a dramatic escalation in the United States' involvement in Vietnam and a subsequent backlash that would change military policy to the present day. 

Learn more about the Gulf of Tonkin Incident and the event that began the large-scale US military presence in Vietnam on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Today's episode is all about food – but not in the form of recipes. First, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Victor M. Valle speaks to Here & Now's Deepa Fernandes about The Poetics of Fire, his new book analyzing the history of chiles in Mesoamerican and Indigenous cuisine as a lens to understand Mexican-American and Chicano culture. Then, NPR's Scott Simon asks Michelle T. King about Chop Fry Watch Learn, a part-memoir, part-reported analysis of Taiwanese chef Fu Pei-mei's life and impact on Chinese food around the world.
