In 1838, an American portrait painter by the name of Samuel Morse developed a system whereby signals could be sent down an electrical wire. 

This system allowed for information to be sent almost instantly over vast distances.

However, sending pulses of electromagnetic energy down a wire isn’t in and of itself communication. So, he developed a system to encode these pulses in a way that was legible.

Learn more about Morse Code, how it works and how it is actually still used today, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

As a little boy grieving his mother, Séamas O'Reilly couldn't entirely grasp the monumental task it was for his father to have to raise 11 children all on his own. In his new memoir, Did Ye Hear Mammy Died?, he uses humor to get through all the sad, tragic parts of his childhood and to help celebrate the joy and love of his unusually large family. In an interview with Scott Simon on Weekend Edition Saturday, O'Reilly spoke about how his memoir is ultimately a tribute to his father who, despite the circumstances, was always a source of delight.

John J. Miller is joined by Michael Pack to discuss his book 'Created Equal.'

For over 2,000 years, stories have been passed down about the famous and infamous people from ancient Rome. 

While many of these names still are familiar to most people today, it doesn’t really tell us much about how the average person lived back then? 

What was life like for the regular person whose names didn’t make it into the history books?

Learn more about the life of the average person in ancient Rome, and how we know what we know about it, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Junteenth was celebrated across the country this weekend and is observed nationally Monday. In a new, Juneteenth-inspired cookbook, Nicole A. Taylor puts a summery spin on traditional African American food: making cocktails with sweet potatoes, fresh salads with collard greens and tons of ice cream. Although many people argue against commemorating the holiday with barbecues and other celebrations, Taylor spoke to Here and Now's Scott Tong about the juxtaposition of sorrow and sadness and how Black Americans have always had to make space for both.

In 2021, the United States Congress declared the first federal holiday in almost 40 years: Juneteenth. 

Juneteenth honors and celebrates the emancipation of slaves in the United States, but why do we celebrate it on this day, and how did this holiday come about? 

When exactly did slavery end and how do other countries celebrate the abolition of slavery?

Learn more about Juneteenth, aka Emancipation Day, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

When one thinks of the history of North America, it often invokes images of native Americans and cowboys riding on horseback. 

However, horses weren’t in the Westen Hemisphere when Europeans arrived. There was a time when if native people had to move from one place to another, they had to do so on foot. 

But, while that is true, the truth is more complex because if you go back far enough, there was a time when horses were in North America. 

Learn more about the complicated history of horses in North America, and how they unleashed a revolution, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Situated in the north of the nation of Chile lies one of the most extreme environments on Planet Earth. The Atacama Desert. 

What makes the Atacama Desert so unique isn’t its size or its temperature, it is the amount of precipitation it gets….or rather the lack thereof. 

It is precipitation that defines what a desert is, and by that logic, the Atacama is the most desert-y of all the deserts. 

Learn more about the Atacama Desert and what makes it so different and special, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Father's Day is this Sunday, giving us a good opportunity to reflect not only the art of fatherhood but also on the struggles that come after dads leave us. First, Helen McDonald talks to Robin Young on Here and Now about grieving her father's death by training a hawk – and finding her path again after grief. Then, Keggie Carew discusses her memoir Dadland, which talks about her relationship with her father, his fascinating stories from his time as a spy, and his struggle with dementia. In a way, these two nostalgic interviews are an invitation to give fathers their due, especially when they're still around.
