Curious City - How Filipino food entrepreneurs’ “sense of community” help them thrive

Chicago is a city of food as much as it is a city of neighborhoods and cultural communities. Last episode, we talked about how Chicago may not have a concentrated Filipino enclave, in the way neighborhoods like Chinatown and Humboldt Park are cultural hubs. But the community comes together and supports each other nonetheless. And Filipino food in Chicago is definitely a part of that. This cultural cuisine has been on the scene for a long time, but only in the past few years has it really started to get its flowers. It’s even grabbed the attention of the Michelin Guide and James Beard Awards. Today, we taste some creations by serial entrepreneur, Francis Almeda as well as chef and owner of A Taste of the Philippines, Kathy Vega Hardy. And we talk about why Vega Hardy says “a sense of community” goes a long way for Filipino food entrepreneurs in the city.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Route 66 (Encore)

In the early 20th century, as automobiles became more and more popular, the need for a national system of roads in the United States became more evident. 

One of the suggested roads connected the city of Chicago, Illinois, on the Great Lakes, with the city of Los Angeles, California, on the Pacific Ocean. 

In 1926 the route was established, following paths and trails which had been used for centuries, and quickly found itself as a central object of popular culture. 

Learn more about Route 66, its history, and its legacy on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Indicator from Planet Money - How would a US sovereign wealth fund even work?

What is a sovereign wealth fund? President Trump's executive order calling for a plan to start a U.S. sovereign wealth fund is not a new idea. But it remains a topic of much debate among economists and policymakers. So is a national sovereign wealth fund a good or even viable idea?

A version of this episode originally aired Oct. 1, 2024.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘The Interpreter’ is a story about children who act as translators for their parents

Cecilia, the main character in Olivia Abtahi's The Interpreter, wears an oversized green suit and tie. She's a kid, but she also works as a translator and interpreter for her immigrant parents. Whether at the DMV, the doctor's office or the mechanic, she's there to help out with cultural translation. The story, illustrated by Monica Arnaldo, is based on Abtahi's own experience growing up with an Iranian father and an Argentine mother who both spoke English, but sometimes needed support with cultural nuance. In today's episode, Abtahi speaks with Here & Now's Scott Tong about how translation is a full-time, adult job that can place a lot of pressure on young children. They also discuss the filial duty that first-generation kids sometimes feel and the importance of depicting the parents in the book with dignity.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Prime Meridian

Located in East London is the Royal Greenwich Observatory. 

Passing directly through the observatory is an imaginary line that extends from the North Pole to the South Pole. 

This line is significant because it is the reference point for every other line of longitude in the world. 

What is even more remarkable is that there is no objective reason for this particular line to be so important. 

Learn more about the Prime Meridian and why it is where it is on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
