Once every 450,000 years or so, the Earth undergoes a radical transformation. 

The planet’s magnetic field will literally flip. The north pole becomes the south pole and vice versa. 

Despite the fact that we know this has happened many times in the Earth’s history, we really don’t know what would happen if the poles were to reverse today.

Learn more about when the Earth’s magnetic poles reverse on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In the 1950s, pregnancy and adoption were topics often clouded in shame, secrecy – or both. That's certainly true for Eleanor and Ruby, the two protagonists of Sadeqa Johnson's new novel, The House of Eve. As the two young Black women try to maneuver the misogynoir in the society around them, they're also confronted with the complicated realities of becoming a mother. In today's episode, Johnson tells NPR's Ayesha Rascoe how those circumstances bring the characters together, and why she felt it was important to pay special attention to Black women's experiences during that time in history.

In 1999, two social psychologists, David Dunning and Justin Kruger, published a seminal paper on a cognitive bias that can affect nearly everyone. 

Since the paper was published, it has given a name to something which most people have recognized and, at times, may have been guilty of themselves.

However, most people who are familiar with the effect only know half the story. 

Learn more about the Dunning-Kruger Effect, what it is, and how to avoid it on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Here & Now's Scott Tong describes ransomware as "a high-tech version of kidnapping." It's when a computer or tech system is hacked and money is demanded in order to get it back. In their new book, The Ransomware Hunting Team, ProPublica journalists Renee Dudley and Daniel Golden chronicle how ransomware has grown from individual attacks to large-scale operations against major corporations, universities and hospitals. But as they vividly explain to Tong, there's also a band of coding vigilantes who are helping ransomware victims regain access ... without paying up.

John J. Miller is joined by Anna Reid to discuss her book, 'Borderland.'

17th-century Europe was witness to one of the longest and most brutal wars in human history. 

The conflict lasted over a generation and was responsible for the deaths of up to half the population in some countries. 

When it finally ended, it resulted in a new geopolitical order, which, for the most part, still exists today.

Learn more about the Thirty Years’ War, one of the bloodiest wars in history, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

There are three central characters in DK Nnuro's new novel, What Napoleon Could Not Do. Belinda and Jacob are Ghanaian siblings who aspire to move to America and be accepted into the opportunities offered there. On the contrary, Wilder – Belinda's American husband, a Black Texan – has a completely different view of his home country and its treatment towards people like him. In today's episode, Nnuro tells NPR's Scott Simon about how he hoped to capture the tension between African and American identity, and why he thinks there should be more of an ellipsis than a dash between the two.

One day every year, the United States celebrates its biggest non-official holiday: Super Bowl Sunday. 

The championship game of the National Football League is almost always the biggest television audience of the year, and one of the most expensive tickets for any sporting event. 

However, it wasn’t always that way. In fact, it wasn’t even called the Super Bowl.

Learn more about the Super Bowl and how it became so big on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Of all the vitamins and nutrients which are required by the human body, there are 13 of which that are considered essential nutrients. That means they can’t be produced within our bodies.

One of those vitamins can be produced in our bodies, but it requires a little bit of help to make it. 

It is a vital component of human health, yet an enormous percentage of the world is deficient in it. 

Learn more about Vitamin D, aka the Sunshine Vitamin, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In 1612, when Galileo Galilei first looked at the stars through a telescope, he might have accidentally discovered a new planet, although he had no idea at the time. 

It wouldn’t be for another 300 years until astronomers found what Galileo had missed, and the process of discovery was unlike any other planet.
