Everything Everywhere Daily - Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto (Encore)

In the Pacific Theater in World War II, the leader of the combined Japanese fleet was Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto. 

Yamamoto was villanized as the arch-enemy of the American forces in the Pacific, and to be fair, he was their enemy. 


But there is actually much more to the story. Yamamoto was the loudest voice against going to war with the United States and was one of only a few officials in the Japanese leadership who spent time in the United States and understood the country. 

Learn more about Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, his rise and tragic end on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Great Locomotive Chase

On April 12, 1862, one of the most daring and audacious events of the American Civil War took place. 

It wasn’t a major battle. It didn’t involve armies meeting each other on the field of battle. 

Instead, it was one of the first examples in military history of a raid designed to deny the enemy access to the most vital 19th-century technology: the railroad. 

Learn more about the Great Locomotive Chase and how railroads became a strategic war objective on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Grass and Lawns

One of the most common types of plants in the world is grass. 

Grass is almost everywhere. An enormous part of the landmass on Earth is covered with grass. 

Grass isn’t just stuff in a field that cows eat, although that is part of it. Grasses also include some of the most economically important plants in the world. 

On many different levels, our civilization would not exist if it weren’t for grass. 

Learn more about grass, what it is, and its important role in the world on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
