Everything Everywhere Daily

In 1885, the Russian Tsar Alexander III commissioned an Easter gift for his wife. It was a rather unusual gift. He asked one of the finest goldsmiths in the country to create a jeweled egg. However, it wasn’t just to be an expensive bauble. Inside the egg was to be another exquisite surprise.  This began a tradition that would last for over 30 years and resulted in some of the finest and most valuable decorative works of art in the world. Learn about Fabergé Eggs, their creation, and the stories behind them on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily. ***5th Anniversary Celebration RSVP*** [https://www.facebook.com/events/1383505062910091/] Sponsors Quince * Go to quince.com/daily [http://quince.com/daily] for 365-day returns, plus free shipping on your order!

One of the most important inventions of the 20th century was the transistor.  Prior to the transistor, electronic devices were large and bulky and dependent on vacuum tubes.  Vacuum tubes were large, fragile, power-hungry, and prone to failure. The transistor not only replaced the vacuum tube in many applications but also enabled the miniaturization and reliability required for modern electronics, including computers, phones, and spacecraft. Learn more about transistors, how they work, and how they were invented on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily. ***5th Anniversary Celebration RSVP*** [https://www.facebook.com/events/1383505062910091/] Sponsors Quince * Go to quince.com/daily [http://quince.com/daily] for 365-day returns, plus free shipping on your order!

In the 5th century BC, the Greek world found itself in the middle of one of its greatest wars. This wasn’t one of their existential conflicts against the Persians; this was a war of Greeks against Greeks.  An alliance of city-states led by Athens fought a coalition led by Sparta for control of the Greek world.  Over nearly 30 years, the two city-states fought for supremacy, leaving a lasting impact on the Greek world. Learn more about the Peloponnesian War, its causes, and its resolution on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily. ***5th Anniversary Celebration RSVP*** [https://www.facebook.com/events/1383505062910091/] Sponsors Quince * Go to quince.com/daily [http://quince.com/daily] for 365-day returns, plus free shipping on your order!

One of the most important inventions in human history was artificial lighting. With the electric lightbulb, the night could be illuminated, allowing people to extend the productive hours in a day and to work in places that were otherwise difficult or impossible.  While the incandescent bulb was a breakthrough, it wasn’t actually very efficient. It wouldn’t be until decades later that a radically more efficient way of producing artificial light would be developed. Learn more about LEDs or light-emitting diodes and how they work on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily. ***5th Anniversary Celebration RSVP*** [https://www.facebook.com/events/1383505062910091/] Sponsors Quince Go to quince.com/daily [http://quince.com/daily] for 365-day returns, plus free shipping on your order!
