Everything Everywhere Daily - The Easter Controversy

Every year, Christians around the world celebrate Easter. 

However, when they celebrate Easter can vary dramatically. In fact, the possible dates of Easter can vary by over a month.

What most people don’t know is that setting the date for Easter was one of the biggest controversies in the early Christian church. In fact, it was a major reason behind one of the most important councils in history. 

Learn more about the Easter Controversy, aka Quartodecimanism, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Black Holes

Gravity is the weakest of the fundamental forces of nature, yet, if you have enough of it, it can create the most powerful thing in the known universe: a black hole. 

The very idea of a black hole didn’t really exist until the early 20th century, and now they are regularly found by the world’s most powerful telescopes. 

As much as we know about them, there is, even more we don’t know and probably will never know. 

Learn more about black holes, what they are, and how they work on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Two books trace enslaved people’s journey to freedom in the 19th century

Today's episode features two books examining the sacrifices made by enslaved people in the U.S. First, NPR's Steve Inskeep speaks with author Ilyan Woo about Master, Slave, Husband, Wife. It's a true story about a young couple that poses as an elderly white man and his slave in order to escape the South. Then, author Kai Thomas tells NPR's Ari Shapiro about how his novel, In the Upper Country, takes a closer look at the relationship between Black and indigenous people – and how free Black communities in Canada became a safe haven during the American Civil War.

NPR's Book of the Day - In ‘The Survivalists,’ doomsday prepping becomes a way to regain control

Comedy writer Kashana Cauley grew up watching the film Conspiracy Theory, starring Mel Gibson and Julia Roberts, with her parents. She says that's likely her earliest entryway into a world she explores in her debut novel, The Survivalists – it follows a millennial lawyer falling in with a community of doomsday preppers. In this episode, Cauley tells NPR's Juana Summers about the control people might feel preparing for an impending apocalypse, and how that experience is ultimately shaped by our understanding of race in the U.S.
