The Story of Rum

Rum isn’t just a spirit that is used in cocktails. It is unique amongst beverages in how it has shaped history.  Rum has driven the creation of sugar plantations, played an important role in the British Navy, piracy, slavery, and global commerce. Today, it has lost its global importance and has become an ingredient in cocktails and an important part of Caribbean economies.  Learn more about Rum’s journey from an empire-building by-product to a craft-made delicacy on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

P.T. Barnum: The Greatest American Showman

P.T. Barnum was one of the most famous entertainers of the 19th century, a man who turned curiosity, spectacle, and promotion into an art form and money. He built museums, launched tours, entered politics, created legends, and helped define the modern circus.  His life was filled with ambition, controversy, genius…and a fair amount of exaggeration.  Learn more about P.T Barnum, the self-proclaimed Prince of Humbugs, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.  Sponsors * Newspapers.com * Honor the past by uncovering its stories at Newspapers.com [https://newspapers.com/wwiihistory?xid=5602&utm_source=EverythingEverywherepodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=EverythingEverywhere26]  Promo Code EVERYTHINGEVERWHERE * Samsara * Don’t wait for the next accident to take action.

The 1967 Anguilla Revolution

In 1967, the tiny Caribbean island of Anguilla launched one of the strangest revolutions in modern history.  Its people were not fighting to escape the British Empire, but to remain a part of it, rather than be governed from the neighboring island of St. Kitts.  What followed included the expulsion of police, a breakaway republic, an invasion by British troops, and a constitutional battle that lasted for years.  Learn more about the odd story of the 1967 Anguilla Revolution on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
