Everything Everywhere Daily - Desalination

Seventy percent of the Earth’s surface is covered with water… and the vast majority of it is useless for consumption or agriculture. 

This problem has been known for thousands of years, and for thousands of years, humans have recognized that it is possible to turn seawater into drinking water; it was just difficult to do so.

In the last few decades, however, the ability to get clean drinking water from the sea has gotten easier and might get even easier still.

Learn more about desalination, how it works, and how it has evolved on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Autogyros

We are all familiar with things that fly in the air. Hot air balloons, dirigibles, blimps, airplanes, and helicopters.

However, there is another category of flying craft that most people aren’t familiar with. It isn’t an airplane, and it isn’t a helicopter. It actually lies somewhere in between. 

By combining parts of both, it has some amazing properties that neither one has. 

Learn more about the autogyro, what it is, and how it works, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Transuranium Elements (Encore)

If you take a look at the periodic table of elements, you will notice something interesting. 

Go to the bottom and take a look at any element over, say, number 94. You will find a bunch of elements you have probably never heard of.


Don’t worry because most chemists probably aren’t familiar with them, either. They are not part of any chemical compounds, cannot be found in nature, and most have only existed for a fraction of a second. 

Learn more about transuranium elements, what they are, and how we even know they exist on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Frederick Douglass

In 1818, the man who would go on to become one of the greatest leaders in the cause against American slavery was himself born into slavery.

At the age of 20, he escaped bondage and went on to lead one of the most remarkable careers of the 19th century. 

He led a multifaceted life, including becoming one of the era’s most notable orators, a newspaper publisher, an author, a presidential advisor, and an ambassador. 

In the end, he perhaps played one of the biggest roles in the end of slavery.

Learn more about the life of Frederick Douglass on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Blue

Colors are something that we are all familiar with. The colors are among the first things we teach children. 

What if I were to tell you not every culture has the same colors? By that, I don’t mean they have different words for colors, but some very basic colors have no words at all. 

For some reason, blue is the color that divides many cultures. 

….And that isn’t the only interesting thing about blue.

Learn more about the color blue and what makes it interesting on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - In ‘The Dry Season,’ Melissa Febos chronicles a transformative year of celibacy

Writer and professor Melissa Febos had been in a series of consecutive relationships for decades. Then, one particularly devastating experience led her to take stock of her dependency on sex and love. She says she was in "the right amount of pain" to make a change. For Febos, that period kicked off what would become a year of transformative celibacy. Her new book The Dry Season chronicles the way abstinence from sex and relationships allowed Febos to awaken to her desires, motivations and decisions in a new way. In today's episode, she speaks with Marielle Segarra – host of NPR's Life Kit podcast – about how this year changed her outlook on attraction, attention, dancing, and the divine.
