With so much water in the eastern U.S., why can't the region pipe some of it to its drought-prone neighbors in the West? This perennial question nags climate journalists and western water managers alike. We break down why building a pipeline is unrealistic right now for the Colorado River.

Everything Everywhere Daily - How Hawaii Became a State (Encore)
The United States consists of 50 states, each of which is represented by a star on the American flag.
Most of those states consist of some section of North America divided by lines on a map that separate them from other states, Canada, or Mexico.
But there is one state that is not like the others. It isn’t located in North America. It doesn’t have a land border with anything, and its route to statehood was unlike that of any other state in the union.
Learn more about the long and controversial way Hawaii became a state on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Five Families and How Organized Crime Became Organized
Organized crime wasn’t always so organized.
In the early 20th century, in New York, what we would call the mafia was rather unorganized. There were competing groups, and while the individual groups had an organization, there was anarchy among them.
There was a war between some of the crime organizations, and when the dust settled, all of the major mafia groups in New York City had found a way to work together, or at least not openly feud.
Learn more about New York’s Five Families and the creation of the commission on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘Final Girl Support Group’ and ‘Witchcraft for Wayward Girls’ center women in horror
Grady Hendrix is one of the biggest names in horror fiction today. He's published 11 horror novels and won a Bram Stoker Award for his non-fiction book on the history of horror fiction. In this episode, we revisit a 2021 conversation between Hendrix and former NPR host Audie Cornish about his book Final Girl Support Group with a discussion on society's obsession with violence and its perpetrators, rather than the victims. Then, we hear Hendrix speak with NPR's Ayesha Rascoe about his latest novel, Witchcraft for Wayward Girls, and some of the real life horrors faced by women in history.
