Everything Everywhere Daily - Citizenship

Almost everyone listening to the sound of my voice is a citizen of some country. 

Citizenship seems very simple and straightforward, but it is anything but. For most of human history, almost everyone was not a citizen of anything. 

Today, it is entirely possible to change citizenship, become a citizen of multiple countries, or possibly even become a citizen of no country at all. 

In some countries, the issue of who can become a citizen and how are some of the biggest issues they face.

Learn more about citizenship, how it developed, and what it means in the world today on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Magna Carta (Encore)

In the early 13th century, England suffered through the worst monarch it would have in its history: King John.

John and his arbitrary policies and high taxation angered the nobility, the church, and the common people. 

However, out of his disastrous reign came something good. An uprising against his rule forced him to sign a document establishing fundamental principles of limited government, the rule of law, and individual rights, marking a crucial milestone in developing constitutional and legal frameworks.

Learn more about the Magna Carta, how it came about, and its significance on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Two new books on Johnny Carson and Shirley MacLaine offer intimate views of celebrity

New books focused on Johnny Carson and Shirley MacLaine offer intimate portraits of two of television and Hollywood's biggest stars. Johnny Carson hosted The Tonight Show for 30 years, becoming an unparalleled nighttime staple and unifying force within American culture. His life is the subject of Carson the Magnificent, a new biography co-written by Bill Zehme and Mike Thomas, who took over the decades-long research project after Zehme died in 2023. In today's episode, Thomas joins NPR's Scott Simon to discuss the divisions between Carson's public and private personas. Then, Shirley MacLaine's personal photo walls feature pictures of dignitaries, starlets and leaders like the Obamas, the Dalai Lama, Dolly Parton, Stephen Hawking and others. In her new book, The Wall of Life, MacLaine uses her photo collection as a way to tell her life stories through a scrapbook format. In today's episode, she speaks with Here & Now's Robin Young about past lives, enduring friendships in Hollywood, and the balance between reality and fame.

Curious City - Bodegas, ‘The Bear’ and why family business is the ‘backbone of the economy’

When you think of a family business, one of two images probably comes to mind: either the mom and pop shop around the corner or the dysfunctional family from “Succession.” But actually, “it could be anything,” says Jennifer M. Pendergast, family enterprise consultant and professor at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management. Last episode, we looked into the oldest family business in Chicago. And this got us thinking about family enterprise in general: Why do family members end up in business together? What happens when they do? Should they? Curious City’s Erin Allen sat down with Pendergast to talk about this, plus why she says family business is the “backbone of the economy.”

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Nile River (Encore)

There is an old saying that da Nile isn’t just a river in Egypt. That is true. It is also a river in Sudan, South Sudan, Ethiopia, and Uganda. 

The Nile is the longest river in the world, yet it is one of the smallest major rivers in the world. 

Historically, some of the world’s greatest civilizations have depended on it, and today it is still a source of conflict between countries that depend on it for water and power. 

Learn more about the Nile River and how its geography has and continues to shape history, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
