Everything Everywhere Daily - The Federal Bureau of Investigation

In 1908, the United States did something unprecedented in its history: It created a general-purpose investigative police branch for the Department of Justice. 

The federal government had enforcement organizations before, but they had very narrow missions. 

From its humble beginnings, the FBI radically changed over the next several decades and became one of the most powerful federal agencies.

Learn more about the Federal Bureau of Investigation, how it was established, and how it has evolved on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Vikings

One of the most feared groups of people from the 8th to the 11th centuries was the Vikings. 

The Vikings stuck fear into the hearts of people all around coastal Europe. They could appear like a bolt out of the blue to raid and pillage villages. 

Yet the Vikings were more than mindless pillagers. They were also explorers and traders and had a much more vibrant culture than how they appeared in popular culture. 

Learn more about the Vikings and how they impacted the course of civilization on his episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘King: A Life’ and ‘A Day in the Life of Abed Salama’ are Pulitzer Prize winners

Today, we revisit conversations with two 2024 Pulitzer Prize-winning authors. First, King: A Life, the biography by Jonathan Eig, provides a fresh perspective on the life of one of America's most important activists. In today's episode, Eig speaks with NPR's Steve Inskeep about how Martin Luther King, Jr. rose to prominence at such a young age, and how he maintained his spirituality through deep scrutiny and surveillance. Then, A Day In The Life of Abed Salama is a true story that takes place in Jerusalem. In 2012, a bus collided with a semi trailer. Six Palestinian kindergarteners and a teacher burned to death. Abed Salama, who is the father of one of the children, has to navigate physical and bureaucratic barriers as he searches for his son. Author Nathan Thrall revisits the journey and the vivid people, both Palestinian and Jewish, Salama encountered. In today's episode, Thrall and Salama speak with NPR's Leila Fadel about the emotional odyssey and the book's reception after the Hamas attack on Israel in October.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Lions

Lions are one of the most respected animals in the animal kingdom. 

They are called the king of the jungle, they are used on the crests of royal houses, and the ancients made a lion one of the signs of the zodiac. They have been the subject of fables and some of the world’s most popular movies.

But how did an animal that is today found in Sub-Saharan Africa manage to become a cultural reference for countries in Asia and Europe well before there was any regular contact between the regions? 

Learn more about lions, how they behave and their role in human history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
