For centuries, humans have built canals to facilitate the transportation of people and goods. 


Usually, they are built to dramatically save time, like how the Panama and Suez canals can help avoid a trip around an entire continent.


However, there is currently a canal being built that is designed to replicate a natural feature that already exists. 


..and it might actually make sense. 


Learn more about the Istanbul Canal and why it is being built, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Ancient Rome had an enormous number of customs and traditions. Some of them have been passed down to us in the names of our months, or the letters in the Latin alphabet. 


However, they also had a lot of very customs which to us seem very strange. 


One of the strangest, and most powerful to the Romans, were the traditions surrounding the Roman city limits, aka the pomerium. 


Learn more about the Roman pomerium, and how seriously the Romans took it, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

On November 20, 1917, German soldiers on the Western Front saw something that had never been seen in the history of warfare.

They were some of the first people to be introduced to tank warfare.

NPR's Book of the Day - Karen Dawisha and Marie Yovanovitch provide a deeper look at Russia’s war in Ukraine

It's been nearly a month since Vladimir Putin attacked Ukraine, so we are taking another look at how we got here. First, an interview from 2014 with the late political scientist Karen Dawisha on how Putin and his cronies became so fabulously wealthy. She told NPR's Arun Rath that leveling economic sanctions would have been effective because Putin expected military action instead. Second, we have a new memoir from Marie Yovanovitch who was ousted as ambassador to Ukraine by President Trump and played a key role in his impeachment. She told NPR's Mary Louise Kelly it was a painful experience.
