When Thomas Jefferson concluded the Louisiana Purchase, it was one of the greatest land deals in history. For a relatively small sum, the young country purchased a large part of the continent.
However, there was a catch. The government had no clue what exactly was in the land that they had purchased. Much of it was unexplored.To address this problem, an expedition was formed to explore the new land, which would ultimately shape the future of the United States.

The Occupation and Liberation of Paris (Encore)
12/04/2026 | 14 mins.
Of all the cities that experienced the Second World War, one of the most interesting stories is that of Paris.
Paris was not the scene of major fighting like Warsaw, which was all but destroyed. It was occupied for over four years, during which time it saw acts of resistance and collaboration.
When the city was liberated after the invasion of Normandy, it was supposed to be destroyed, but it survived due to one man’s act of disobedience.
After liberation, the city witnessed incredible acts of reprisal and vengeance.
Learn more about the occupation and liberation of Paris on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Norse Pantheon: Gods, Giants, and the Legends of Asgard
10/04/2026 | 15 mins.
Long before Marvel turned them into superheroes, the Norse gods were something far more mysterious and far more human.
They were flawed, doomed, and destined to face their own destruction at Ragnarok.
From Odin’s relentless search for wisdom to Thor’s thunderous battles and Loki’s dangerous tricks, these gods shaped how the Vikings understood the world around them.
Learn more about Odin, Thor, and the rest of the Norse pantheon, and why their stories have endured for over a thousand years, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
