Everything Everywhere Daily - Prisons and Jails

There are many things in our world that have surprisingly ancient origins. 

One of the things that most definitely does not have ancient origins in the concept of prison and incarceration as punishment. 

Today, almost everywhere in the world, the primary form of punishment for crimes is incarceration. Yet historically speaking, this form of punishment was almost never practiced until the modern era. 

Learn more about prisons and jails, what the difference is and how they came to be on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Bonnie Kistler’s new thriller explores ageism from the lens of a murder

Kate's new husband, who she reunites with 50 years after they were high school sweethearts, has just confessed that he was behind the Tylenol murders — a real, unsolved series of deaths in 1982 from poison-laced Tylenol pills in the Chicago area. When Kate tries to report him, the killer convinces everyone around her that her age, 70, is deteriorating her memory. This is the beginning of Bonnie Kistler's new thriller, Shell Games. In today's episode, Kistler speaks with NPR's Scott Simon about psychological manipulation and how the idea for the book came from a dream where she was the wife in question.
