Diamonds Are Forever
924
It has been said that they are a girl’s best friend, they are forever, and that they are the hardest substance in the world.
In nature, they are created deep beneath the Earth at extreme temperatures and pressures, yet in the laboratory, they can be created in a near-vacuum.
For all practical purposes, you can’t scratch it, yet you can cut it, and economists have noted the paradox of how it is priced compared to water.
Learn more about diamonds, how they are made, and how they are used, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Geothermal Energy
687
Wherever you happen to be listening to this show, at some level beneath your feet the rocks in the Earth reach a temperature hot enough to boil water and create steam.
With steam, you can turn a turbine and create electricity.
If everywhere on Earth is just a few kilometers away from tapping into this source of energy, why don’t we use this everywhere?
Learn more about geothermal energy, its uses, and its limits, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Noble Gases
782
Located on the far right side of the periodic table are the Noble Gases. These elements, six of which can be found in nature, are unlike any other elements.
They don’t play well with the other elements and are pretty content to be by themselves.
Nonetheless, they have found a unique place in technical products, industrial applications, and even space flight.

Universe 25
816
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to create a utopia? A place where all your wants and needs were taken care of and there was never any fear of harm?
Creating such a world for humans may be far off, but one man did try to create a utopia for rats. He created a world that had everything they would want and where all their needs are taken care of.
It didn’t turn out like anyone expected.

Never Give Up, Never Surrender
696
On September 2, 1945, on the deck of the battleship USS Missouri, the Japanese Empire formally and unconditionally surrendered.
With that, the second world war was over and everyone stopped fighting, went home, and lived happily ever after.
Except, not everyone.
There were a surprisingly large number of holdouts who either didn’t know that Japan surrendered, or didn’t believe it.
Learn more about the Japanese soldiers who never surrendered on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Morse Code
823
In 1838, an American portrait painter by the name of Samuel Morse developed a system whereby signals could be sent down an electrical wire.
This system allowed for information to be sent almost instantly over vast distances.
However, sending pulses of electromagnetic energy down a wire isn’t in and of itself communication. So, he developed a system to encode these pulses in a way that was legible.
Learn more about Morse Code, how it works and how it is actually still used today, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The History of Horses in North America
811
When one thinks of the history of North America, it often invokes images of native Americans and cowboys riding on horseback.
However, horses weren’t in the Westen Hemisphere when Europeans arrived. There was a time when if native people had to move from one place to another, they had to do so on foot.
But, while that is true, the truth is more complex because if you go back far enough, there was a time when horses were in North America.
Learn more about the complicated history of horses in North America, and how they unleashed a revolution, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Atacama Desert
664
Situated in the north of the nation of Chile lies one of the most extreme environments on Planet Earth. The Atacama Desert.
What makes the Atacama Desert so unique isn’t its size or its temperature, it is the amount of precipitation it gets….or rather the lack thereof.
It is precipitation that defines what a desert is, and by that logic, the Atacama is the most desert-y of all the deserts.

Precision Munitions
825
In 1940, an investigation conducted by the British military found that only 1 in 5 of their bombers were actually landing bombs within five miles of their intended targets.
This level of inaccuracy wasn’t just dangerous in terms of collateral damage, but it was horrible in terms of achieving military objectives.
This inaccuracy has led to the development of ever more precise munitions, which is still going on today.

The History of Olive Oil
797
Somewhere in your kitchen, you might have a bottle of olive oil. When you made that purchase you probably didn’t think twice about it, but believe it or not, olive oil used to be one of the most important products in the world.
While today it is almost exclusively used for cooking, in the past it had a wide variety of uses, which is what made it so valuable.
The olive oil you consume today is very similar to the product consumed thousands of years ago. In some cases, literally so.

Secrecy is a huge part of military success. You want to be able to communicate with your own forces without the enemy finding out what your plans are.
As America entered World War II, they were in need of a method of communication that couldn’t be cracked by Germany or Japan. They found the answer they were looking for in the languages of Native Americans.

The Battle of the Teutoburg Forest
825
Today in Western Europe, there is a line that divides speakers of Germanic languages and speakers of Romance languages. While that line has shifted over two thousand years, its existence can be traced back to a battle that took place over 2000 years ago.
That battle rocked the Roman Empire to its core, and finally set limits for how big the empire could grow.

The History of Television
993
It has been called the boob tube and the idiot box, but the fact is that perhaps no invention was as important to the latter half of the 20th Century as the television.
Once the problems of moving pictures and wireless audio had been solved, it took quite a bit longer to solve the problem of wireless moving pictures.
Once it was solved, it revolutionized the world.
Learn more about the history of television, how it was developed and how it took over the world, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Yes, We have No Bananas
804
In the late 19th century, bananas, a fruit that had been popular for thousands of years suddenly became a mass-market sensation.

As a result, the bananas that most people eat today are very different than the bananas that everyone ate before the second world war.

Did We Already Find Life On Mars? (Encore)
549
On July 20, 1976, Viking 1 became the first robotic lander to land on Mars. On September 3, its sister Viking 2 followed suit.
Both of them carried experiments to test for biology on Mars, something which no subsequent Mars lander since has replicated.
The results from these chemical experiments have divided researchers for decades and have been the cause of one of the greatest debates in planetary science.

What is IQ?
907
For ages, people have tried to categorize people by intelligence. However, it wasn’t until the early 20th century that attempts were made to provide a quantifiable measure of human intelligence.
In 1912, a German psychologist by the name of William Stern dubbed a method of scoring intelligence tests called an intelligence quotient.
Every since there, there has been controversy surrounding the method of scoring and the very idea of scoring intelligence.

Correlation vs Causation

The Bretton Wood System
730
Barely a month after the Normandy Landing in 1944, the allied powers were already thinking of what the post-world would look like.

So, in at a resort in New Hampshire, representatives from 44 countries hammered out a new international monetary system that would govern the world for the next 25 years.
Learn more about the Bretton Woods System and how parts of it still influence the world today on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

August Wilhelm Iffland was one of the finest German actors in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
That fact alone would probably not make him worthy of a podcast episode. What does make him worthy of a podcast episode is a ring that bears his name which has been passed down from actor to actor for over 200 years.
It is a tradition that is still ongoing today.

Countries, like people, have names. Sometimes those names are long and they have a shorter version of it for common use.
There are some countries, however, that often have multiple names, and the names can be radically different from each other. They might want everyone to call it by one name, or by a certain name in a certain language, but no one does.
Why do some countries have multiple names, and does it really make a difference?
Learn more about countries with confusing or multiple names on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Beginning in the 16th century, French settlers crossed the Atlantic to settle in a new French colony in the new world. That colony wasn’t modern-day Quebec, however. The colony was known as Acadia.
When the British took control of Acadia in 1713, the Acadians were allowed to stay, but eventually, that privilege was revoked by the British, and those people were scattered to the winds.
Today, the descendants of the Acadians can still be found all over the world.

When you hear about ancient battles and wars, the stories are often dominated by famous generals whose names have come down to us through history.
However, military success often relied on more mundane things.
In the year 107 BC, a Roman general and statesman by the name of Gaius Marius did exactly such a thing when he overhauled the Roman military.
Learn more about the Marian Reforms and how they set the stage for the Roman Empire, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

A Human History of Ice

Humans have been aware of ice for as long as there have been humans and ice.
