Everything Everywhere Daily - The History of the Guitar

One of the most popular instruments in the world is the guitar. 


The guitar is the primary instrument in many popular forms of music today. 


Yet, this wasn’t always the case. The guitar is related to multiple stringed instruments and has a lineage that goes back thousands of years. 


However, the guitar that you are familiar with is a rather recent invention. 


Learn more about the history of the guitar and how it evolved into the modern instrument we know today on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - In ‘Everything Is Tuberculosis,’ John Green turns his attention to a deadly disease

Tuberculosis is one of the oldest diseases in human history – and it still kills more than a million people every year. In a new book, The Fault in Our Stars author John Green argues the infection persists only because we allow it to. Everything Is Tuberculosis takes on the history of the human response to and treatment of tuberculosis. The book, Green says, was partially inspired by a young boy named Henry whom the author met at a hospital in Sierra Leone. In today's episode, Green joins Here & Now's Robin Young for a conversation that touches on Henry's story, the history of tuberculosis in Green's own family, and the interconnected nature of human health.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Reign of Terror

For a 10-month period from September 1793 to July 1794, the nation of France went through a period which could only be called insanity. 


In the aftermath of the French Revolution, a small group of radicals took control of the Revolutionary French government and began eliminating all enemies of the revolution, both real and perceived. 


Tens of thousands of people were imprisoned, and thousands met their end with what the French called madame la guillotine. 


Learn more about the French Revolution’s Reign of Terror, why it started, and how it ended on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Open Source Software

Computer software seems to be everywhere. No matter what kind of computer you use or where you use it, all computers use software. 


That is the entire point of a computer. 


However, not all software is the same. There are actually enormous differences between software applications. Not just what they do, but how they were written, the business models behind them, the legal licenses that cover them, and the philosophy behind them. 


Learn more about free and open source software, what it is, and how it works on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
