Rasputin
In the early 20th century, the Russian Tsar Nicholas II and his wife, the Tsarina Alexandra, welcomed a homeless monk into their home.
As this scruff, unkempt-looking man became closer to the royal family, he seemingly performed miracles, predicted the future, and cured illnesses.
He starts to gain influence over the Imperial Family, too much influence for comfort.
So, a group of nobles decided that he needed to be eliminated. However, that proved to be much easier said than done.
Learn about Rasputin, the magical man who wouldn’t die, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Trail of Tears
Between 1830 and 1850, the United States forcibly displaced 60,000 Native Americans living in the Southern United States under the ‘Indian Removal Act.’
While being moved, thousands would die due to starvation, disease, and exposure.
Its impact has led some scholars to classify the event as a genocide. Regardless of how it is classified, it remains one of the greatest tragedies in American history.
Learn about the Trail of Tears: why it was enacted and why it was so deadly on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
