Cutting across the state of Arizona is one of the wonders of the national world: The Grand Canyon. 

The Grand Canyon draws attention not only for its overwhelming size and intricate and colorful landscape but also for the deep and exposed layers of Earth's history that are visible in its walls. 

The history of the Grand Canyon is a fascinating combination of its geologic origins and its history of human use.

Learn more about the Grand Canyon, its origins, and its history with humans on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

2034, the first novel by Elliot Ackerman and Admiral James Stavridis, chronicled a nuclear conflict between China and the U.S. Now, their sequel 2054 takes a look at the country two decades later. The President is suddenly assassinated giving a speech, which sparks a flood of conspiracy theories, digitally-altered images and horrifying technological discoveries. In today's episode, the authors speak with NPR's Mary Louise Kelly about the relationship between technology and American institutions, and how destruction is sometimes an inevitable part of progress.

In 1860, the United States was as divided as it ever had been. The issue of slavery had been growing more and more contentious over the decades and by 1860, things were nearing a breaking point. 

The presidential election of 1860 literally would determine the future of the country, or if there would continue to even be a country. 

Learn more about the presidential election of 1860, the most important presidential election in American history, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

A little over 400 years ago, a group of Dutch investors had a revolutionary idea. 

They were embarking on an incredibly risky endeavor, and to spread the risk, they were going to share ownership of the new venture. 

Even better, each part of the ownership in this venture could be bought and sold to other investors.

Their innovation is one of the most powerful economic forces in the world today.

Learn more about stocks and stock exchanges, how they were formed, and how they work on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Before the Ideas of March, before he crossed the Rubicon, and before he became Rome’s dictator for life, Julius Caesar had led a very interesting life. 

We know more about his early life than most Romans simply because of his accomplishments later in life, but what he did and experienced clearly shaped the person he became.

As such, they indirectly shaped the fate of the entire Roman Republic.

Learn more about the life of young Julius Caesar and the events that shaped him on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
