Everything Everywhere Daily - Non-Euclidean Geometry
If anyone has taken some basic mathematics, you are probably familiar with Euclidian Geometry. Euclidean geometry is what most people just call geometry.
It is the study of shapes like triangles and circles in a simple plane. This type of geometry was developed over 2000 years ago, and it is based on certain set axioms.
However, later mathematicians challenged one of those axioms, and it completely changed how we thought of geometry.
Learn more about non-Euclidian geometry and what it means in this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Indicator from Planet Money - Coyote vs. Warner Bros. Discovery
The movie Coyote vs. Acme was set to release this summer featuring characters from the iconic Looney Tunes cartoons. The studio behind the film, Warner Bros. Pictures, had some other ideas. Instead of releasing the completed film, the studio canceled Coyote vs. Acme, with no intention of ever releasing it.
Today on the show, we explain the Hollywood economics behind why Warner Bros. Discovery might not want to release movies that its own studio spent years putting together.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Scurvy (Encore)
When Europeans began sailing the high seas on extended voyages, the most deadly thing they encountered wasn’t enemy navies, starvation, or even shipwrecks.
It was a painful disease where your body would literally start falling apart, and it killed more than 2,000,000 sailors between the voyage of Columbus to the middle of the 19th century.
Learn more about scurvy and how it was eventually conquered on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
