For thirty years between 1455 and 1485, England suffered its greatest civil war at that point.
The war was ultimately over succession to the throne and who should be king.
The period was filled with death and bloodshed, and when the dust settled, it left England a changed country and set the stage for its later ascension.
Learn more about the War of the Roses, its causes, and its resolution on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The History of Tea (Encore)
Sometimes over 3000 years ago, somewhere in Southwestern China, a leaf from the Camellia sinensis plant may have accidentally found its way into a pot of boiling water.
Noticing that the leaf had turned the water a different color, some person unknown to history drank the concoction and found that it was good.
That was the start of something that is today a globe-spanning multi-billion dollar industry that millions of people indulge in every day.
Learn more about tea, its origins, and how it spread around the world on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Questions and Answers: Volume 25
December is upon us, and we should be cognizant of the fact that December is based on the Latin word Decem, meaning tenth, which is why December is the 10th month of the year……except that it is actually the 12th month.
The reason why the 12th month is named the 10th month is because the original Roman calendar was perhaps the dumbest calendar even used in all of human history, where they had a full two months that were pretty much unaccounted for.
Fast forward over 2000 years and December is just another opportunity for Questions and Answers on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Representative Riffs
Music is a very powerful thing. It can invoke a wide variety of emotions and moods.
Particular songs we've heard might invoke memories of when we first heard them.
However, there is some music that actually can server as a cultural shorthand. Not even full songs are necessary. Just a few notes can provide a very specific cultural reference.
Learn more about representative riffs, what they are, and how they came to be on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Tyranny of the Rocket Equation (Encore)
In 1897, the visionary Russian rocket scientist Konstantin Tsiolkovsky discovered an equation that governed how rockets worked.
His equation, which was independently discovered by several other rocket scientists, immutably governs how we can send rockets into space.
The variables in his equation have determined everything surrounding spaceflight and rocketry since its inception and will for the foreseeable future.
Learn more about the Tyranny of the Rocket Equation on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
