In the early 20th century, the Schlitz Brewing Company of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, was the largest brewery in the world. 

However, by 1980, the company had fallen on hard times and was purchased by a competitor in a hostile takeover. The company was so bad that it eventually killed the company that bought them. 

However, the demise of Schlitz wasn’t one of changing tastes or bad luck. It was a series of self-inflicted wounds.

Learn more about the Schlitz Mistake and how a series of bad decisions killed the world’s largest brewery on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Tomatoes are grown almost everywhere in the world today, and they have become the basis of several international cuisines.

In the first and second centuries, a Christian sect found a wide following throughout the Roman world. 

They weren’t your normal run-of-the-mill Christians. They had beliefs that were nothing like those of any Christian sect today, and they drew the ire of many Christian leaders at the time. 

What we knew about them was limited to the writings of their critics until a stunning find in the mid-20th century shed new light on them.

Learn more about Gnosticism and the Gnostics, their beliefs, and the reaction to them on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, there was a problem that stumped even the best minds in physics.

Eventually, one man, Max Planck, solved the problem, but his solution was one that was out of left field. While the math worked, he didn’t actually believe that the mathematics explained reality.

It turned out his discovery was more true than he realized and it ushed in a revolution in the world of physics that completely changed our view of nature and reality.

In July 2017, the International Olympic Committee did something unprecedented. It awarded not one, but two cities Olympic games at the same time.

The 2024 games to Paris and the 2028 games to Los Angeles. 

However, this decision wasn’t a stroke of genius. It was an act of desperation. 

That is because no one really wants to host an Olympics anymore.

Learn more about the economics and politics of hosting the Olympic games and how it has radically changed over time on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

One of the most feared groups of people from the 8th to the 11th centuries was the Vikings. 

The Vikings stuck fear into the hearts of people all around coastal Europe. They could appear like a bolt out of the blue to raid and pillage villages. 

Yet the Vikings were more than mindless pillagers. They were also explorers and traders and had a much more vibrant culture than how they appeared in popular culture. 

Learn more about the Vikings and how they impacted the course of civilization on his episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
