The middle ages didn’t have sports like we have today, but they did have competitions. 

These competitions were tournaments between knights where they demonstrated their martial prowess. 

During this period, there was one knight who stood out amongst all the rest. 

He never lost a match and rose to a level where he was the king of England in all but name.

Learn more about William Marshall, and greatest knight in history, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

When it comes to raising children, says Helena Andrews-Dyer, there are complicated dynamics connected to race and class – which she writes about in her book The Mamas. In an interview with Rachel Martin, Dyer details the trials and tribulations of being a first-time parent, attending social events with other moms and all the pressure put on her internally and externally to make sure her child turns out alright. But it's her experience as a Black mom among a sea of white mothers that pushed her to reimagine her parenting "through a larger lens of race, and class, and gentrification."

In 1917, Albert Einstein published a paper whereby he proposed a new method of creating light based on the principles of quantum physics.

Over 40 years later, researchers finally put Einstein’s ideas into practice.

For years it remained a solution in search of a problem. Today, the number of applications for this source of light is almost limitless and includes everything from nuclear fusion, to annoying cats. 

Learn more about Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation, or LASERs, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everyone in the knew, without any doubt, that the greatest wines in the world were all produced in France. In particular, from regions such as Bordeaux and Burgundy.

However, in just one day, the wine world’s attitudes towards French and California wines were completely and irrevocably altered. 

Learn more about the Judgement of Paris and how, in a single day, the world took California wines seriously on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

This episode features two different books by one author: Salman Rushdie. And while the two stories differ, recurrent themes of magical realism and the supernatural accompany them both. First, Rushdie, in a discussion of his book The Golden House, tells Ari Shapiro how escaping your past can lead to disillusionment And then, in an interview with Scott Simon about the fantasy elements in Two Years Eight Months and Twenty-Eight Nights, he says that to combine magic and realism, you need the ability to think and to dream.

Several thousand years ago, astronomers in the Middle East studying the night sky divided it into 12 equal regions. Each region was given a name, was associated with an animal and a constellation.  

These divisions became the basis for the nascent disciplines of astronomy and astrology.

Today, the system created by those ancient astronomers can still be found in the pseudoscience of horoscopes and the very much science of astronomy. 

Learn more about the zodiac and the signs of the zodiac, where they came from, and how they spread around the world on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
