Everything Everywhere Daily

In January 897, something unprecedented took place in Rome. Pope Formosa, the leader of the Catholic Church, was put on trial. What made this unprecedented wasn’t that the pope was on trial, although it was unprecedented. The remarkable thing was that Pope Formosa had died seven months earlier, and it was his exhumed corpse that was in the courtroom.Learn more about the Cadaver Synod, perhaps the oddest trial in history, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.SponsorsBetterHelp is an online platform that provides therapy and counseling services to individuals in need of mental health support.

There was no product more important to the economy of the ancient world than silk. Silk was transported thousands of miles to be purchased by people so far away from its source that they had no clue where it came from. The source of silk, however, was China, and for centuries, they had a monopoly, which brought them tremendous wealth. That was until they didn’t. Learn more about how the secret to silk was smuggled out of China, and the silk monopoly was broken on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.SponsorsBetterHelp is an online platform that provides therapy and counseling services to individuals in need of mental health support.

International borders can be very strange things. Sometimes they measured down to the millimeter and a heavily marked and fortified. Other times they run through desolate areas where hardly anyone pays attention to the actual location. The latter was the case with much of the US/Mexican border in the early 20th century, and it caused a great deal of confusion. Learn more about Rio Rico, the American town that everyone thought was a Mexican town, and then it actually was, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.SponsorsBetterHelp is an online platform that provides therapy and counseling services to individuals in need of mental health support.

In a previous episode, I spoke about the Drake equation and the odds of there being intelligent extraterrestrial life. Many people have used the Drake equation to argue that it is almost impossible for there not to be intelligent life in our galaxy. However, in the summer of 1950, physicist Enrico Fermi pushed back against this by asking a very simple question: if there are so many intelligent civilizations, where are they?Learn more about the Fermi Paradox and some possible answers to the question, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.SponsorsBetterHelp is an online platform that provides therapy and counseling services to individuals in need of mental health support.
