Today's episode focuses on two books that go deep on two culinary traditions: curry and chai. First, famed chef and author Raghavan Iyer spoke with NPR's Ari Shapiro about On The Curry Trail, which traces the origins and impact of curry around the world. Iyer, who died shortly after the interview, gets candid about his career making Indian food accessible to Americans. Then, Here & Now's Deepa Fernandes speaks with Kevin Wilson — known online as CrossCultureKev — about The Way of Chai and the spiritual practice behind the delicious drink.

NPR's Book of the Day - In ‘Big Heart Little Stove,’ chef Erin French focuses on recipes and hospitality
For chef Erin French, a meal is about a lot more than the food on the table. Her new cookbook, Big Heart Little Stove, provides not only recipes from her family and famed Maine restaurant The Lost Kitchen, but also her philosophy for sprucing up a table setting or presenting a particular dish in a way that elevates the meaning of the entire experience. In today's episode, French speaks with Here & Now's Robin Young about the rocky road that led her to open her hit dining destination, and how the pandemic's reduced hours changed the way she runs her business.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Tomb of Alexander the Great (Encore)
By the age of 32, Alexander the Great had conquered most of the world, which was known to him.
This episode is not about any of that. This is about what happened after his death.
After he died, his corpse became a political football, and his tomb became the centerpiece of the city in Egypt that bared his name. Within a century, it became the largest city on Earth.
…and then at some point, his body and his tomb just disappeared from history.
Learn more about the corpse and the tomb of Alexander the Great and what might have happened to it, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Indicator from Planet Money - The echo of the bison (Classic)
*This episode originally aired on August 21st, 2023*
For over 10,000 years, many peoples in what's now known as North America relied on bison. Thirty million of these creatures stretched from modern Canada all the way down to Mexico.
But in the late 1800s hide-hunters and the U.S. military annihilated the bison, bringing them to the brink of extinction. And that had consequences for the people who relied on the bison. Consequences that we still see today.
Today, we hear from an economist who revealed the shocking numbers telling this story, and one member of the Blackfeet Nation who is trying to bring back the bison.
