The Abdication of Edward VIII
In December 1936, the United Kingdom underwent its greatest constitutional crisis of the 20th century.
The king, Edward VIII, abdicated the throne to marry an American divorcee. This might not seem like a scandal today, but at the time, it threatened to collapse the entire British government when Europe was on the brink of war.
The aftermath of the abdication crisis saw the rise of a new king and the birth of an entirely new royal line, a legacy that endures to this day.
Learn more about the abdication of Edward VIII, why it happened, and its fallout on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Drake Equation (Encore)
In 1961, at the Green Bank observatory in West Virginia, a small conference was held for astrophysicists. The meeting was organized by Cornell University professor and astronomer Frank Drake.
The subject of the conference was the search for extraterrestrial life.
In preparation for the conference, he jotted down his thoughts in the form of an equation. An equation that has changed how we think about life on other worlds.
Learn more about the Drake Equation and the variables that make it up on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The North Africa Campaign
Before the Allied invasions of Normandy or Sicily in World War II, the ground war against Germany and Italy was first fought in North Africa.
The reason why there was even a conflict in Africa was a combination of geography and history. Even though it doesn’t get the attention the war in Asia or Europe receives, the war in North Africa was pivotal to the ultimate resolution of the war in Europe.
Had things gone differently, the entire course of the war would have changed.
Learn more about the North Africa Campaign, why it was fought and how it was resolved on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Corn aka Maize
The biggest agricultural crop in the world today, by total weight, is corn.
Also known as maize, corn is a crop of the New World. The ancients in China, India, Mesopotamia, and Rome never knew about corn.
Yet, since the Columbian Exchange, it has become one of the world’s most important commodities as a source of food, animal feed, and the basis of many manufactured food products.
Learn more about corn, aka maize, where it came from, and how it revolutionized the world of agriculture on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Gregor MacGregor and the Biggest Scam in History
One of the most audacious scams in history took place in the early 19th century in Britain.
A man sold thousands of people a dream of land in the New World. His claims attracted large investments, encouraged hundreds of people to move around the world, and even suckered in members of the royal family.
However, his promises were empty, and in the end, shiploads of people were stranded in the middle of nowhere, and many people lost their life savings.
Learn more about Gregor MacGregor and one of the biggest scams in history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
