Everything Everywhere Daily - What Has the James Webb Space Telescope Discovered (So Far)?
On December 25, 2021, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope was launched from the European Space Agency launch center in French Guyana.
After six months of testing and configuring the telescope, in July of 2022, its first images were transmitted.
Since then, we have received a flood of images and data that have caused astronomers to rethink much of what we know about the universe.
Learn more about the discoveries made by the James Webb Space Telescope so far on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Malcolm Gladwell revisits old ideas in a new book, ‘Revenge of the Tipping Point’
When Malcolm Gladwell released The Tipping Point in 2000, the book became a huge bestseller–and Gladwell became a star. Nearly a quarter-century later, the journalist and podcaster revisits that work. Revenge of the Tipping Point employs Gladwell's familiar methods, using storytelling to examine the spread of negative social behavior by pharmaceutical companies, bank robbers and Medicare fraudsters. In today's episode, the author sits down with NPR's Steve Inskeep to discuss why Gladwell's view of society has darkened over time and what the author thinks of his harshest critics.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The History of Insurance (Encore)
Insurance seems like a pretty modern concept. There are insurance commercials on television, and insurance companies sponsor major sports teams.
Most of us have to buy insurance, or we are at least under someone else’s insurance policy.
However, insurance is far from a modern concept. It is actually one of the oldest financial arrangements in human history.
Learn more about insurance, how it was created, and how it works on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Han Kang, winner of the 2024 Nobel Prize in literature, on her novel ‘The Vegetarian’
South Korean author Han Kang is this year's recipient of the Nobel Prize in literature, making her the first Korean writer to win the award. In its citation, the Swedish Academy commended Han "for her intense poetic prose that confronts historical traumas and exposes the fragility of human life." Both of these themes are present in the author's 2007 novel, The Vegetarian, which tells the story of a young woman who decides to give up meat. In today's episode, we revisit a 2016 interview between Han and NPR's Linda Wertheimer, which took place around the time of The Vegetarian's publication in English. In the interview, they discussed gender politics, how women cope with trauma, and Han's "long-lasting question about human violence."
