Patrick Bringley worked in events planning at The New Yorker – until his older brother got diagnosed with cancer and passed away. That loss led to a reimagining of priorities for Bringley, who decided to seek solace in one of the most beautiful places he could think of: The Metropolitan Museum of Art. His new memoir, All the Beauty in the World, retraces his journey to becoming a museum guard and finding refuge in the works of art he saw each day. And as he tells NPR's Scott Simon, he also encountered a lot of joy in watching the people who visited.

In the year 1258, two of the greatest empires in world history collided.

For one, it was yet another in an incredible string of conquests.

For the other, it resulted in its downfall and the destruction of one of the world’s greatest centers of knowledge and learning.

For the people who suffered through it, it was one of the worst days in world history.

Beth Moore was raised in the Southern Baptist Convention. As an adult, she went on to become an evangelist, teaching Bible studies to women in arenas around the world. But as she recounts in her new memoir, All My Knotted-Up Life, she grew up feeling a deep shame – and surviving sexual abuse at home – that reached a breaking point with the surfacing of the Donald Trump "Access Hollywood" tape and the investigation into the SBC. As Moore tells NPR's Ayesha Rascoe, those events led her to eventually leave her denomination.

John J. Miller is joined by Spencer Klavan to discuss his new book, 'How to Save the West.'

It is time once again for the monthly Q&A episode!

The critically acclaimed poet Camonghne Felix says that people going through breakups are not often treated with the same grace or generosity as those who've experienced self-harm or sexual assault. But in her new memoir, Dyscalculia, she explores the ways romantic pain and loss requires its own kind of grief – and the amount of honesty that it requires to truly heal from heartbreak. In today's episode, she tells NPR's Juana Summers about how she yearned for a book, written by a Black woman, that immersed itself in that process – and so she ended up having to write her own story.

In the summer of 1969, the nations of Honduras and El Salvador went to war. 

Tragically, nations do go to war, so this in and of itself isn’t unusual.

However, the spark which ignited this war was unlike any other in world history. 

It had to do with a qualifying match for the 1970 FIFA World Cup.

Learn more about the Football War, its causes, and its resolution on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Several hundred thousand years ago, human beings walked out of Africa. 

What has been a subject of debate amongst anthropologists is why it happened, how it happened, and how many times it happened. 

The process by which homo sapiens left their land of origin to populate the rest of the world has been one of the fundamental questions in anthropology. 

Learn more about the Out of Africa hypothesis and the origins of humanity on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

On December 29, 1940, a year before the United States entered the Second World War, President Franklin Roosevelt declared the United States to be an arsenal of democracy.

When the US did finally enter the war, they faced a serious problem. The population of men who would normally be called upon to work in the factories was now being sent off to war. 

The solution to the problem proved to be incredibly simple.

Today's episode features interviews with two people who've given a lot of thought to capitalism's role in modern society. First, Sen. Bernie Sanders speaks with NPR's Steve Inskeep about his new book, It's OK to be Angry About Capitalism, and how he views the way politicians appeal to the working class – oftentimes, he says, without addressing the root of the problems they're facing. Then, NPR's Michel Martin talks to author Malcolm Harris about his new book, Palo Alto, which details the origins of the California city, the birth of Silicon Valley and the power that's concentrated in the industries that are based there.
