Everything Everywhere Daily - The History of Money (Encore)

Money is a very strange thing. All of us use it. We spend it, earn it, and save it. We know it when we see it.

Yet, even some of the world’s best economists have a very hard time defining it. 

It has been around for thousands of years, yet innovation is still being made with it today.

Learn more about the history of money, how it came about, and how it developed over time on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The St. Scholastica Day Riot

A common occurrence at many universities is that they have contentious relationships with their local community. 

This is not a recent development. It is something that has existed ever since universities were developed. 

The relationship between colleges and local towns was probably at its worst in 1355 when an outbreak of violence occurred at Oxford University.

Learn more about The St. Scholastica Day Riot and its 500-year legacy with the local community on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Questions and Answers: Volume 19

The month of June was originally called Iunius by the Romans. It originally had 29 days and was the fourth month of the year. 

Today, it has 30 days, and it is the sixth month of the year. 

It used to be a bad omen to be married in June, and now it is the most popular month to be married in.

However, despite all the changes in June, there is one thing that has remained constant: questions and answers.

Stay tuned for the 19th installment of Questions and Answers on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Two books trace the social and historical impacts of food

Today's episode is all about food – but not in the form of recipes. First, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Victor M. Valle speaks to Here & Now's Deepa Fernandes about The Poetics of Fire, his new book analyzing the history of chiles in Mesoamerican and Indigenous cuisine as a lens to understand Mexican-American and Chicano culture. Then, NPR's Scott Simon asks Michelle T. King about Chop Fry Watch Learn, a part-memoir, part-reported analysis of Taiwanese chef Fu Pei-mei's life and impact on Chinese food around the world.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Real Story of Cowboys

One of the most iconic images of America is the cowboy. Cowboys have defined entire genres of literature and movies and are the basis for entire styles of fashion. 

But how did cowboys come about, what exactly did they do, and who exactly became cowboys? 

Perhaps most importantly, how realistic is our image of cowboys? 

Spoiler: It's not very realistic at all.

Learn more about Cowboys, how they came to be, and how realistic their portrayal in media is, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Across seven decades, Claire Messud's novel This Strange Eventful History follows generations of a family from a colonized Algeria to far stretches of the world after the country's independence, always grappling with the idea of identity and belonging and political upheaval.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Destruction and Rediscovery of Pompeii (Encore)

In the year 79, Mount Vesuvius, a volcano located east of the modern-day city of Naples, erupted. 

Vesuvius had erupted before, but this eruption was different. It ejected an enormous amount of ash, which completely buried several towns and cities below the mountain.

Almost 2,000 years later, the largest of those cities, Pompeii, was rediscovered, and what archeologists found revolutionized our understanding of the ancient world. 

Learn more about the destruction and rediscovery of Pompeii on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
