In this Deep Dive episode, our hosts discuss the historical, literary, and curious natural-history moments tied to a single day.
- 📜 On this day in 1739 — about twenty Black Carolinians met near the Stono River, roughly twenty miles southwest of Charleston — a concentrated moment of organized resistance that reveals how geography, rivers, and proximity to urban centers shaped early acts of planning and defiance.
- 🎂 Today’s birthdays: Leo Tolstoy (1828), Otis Redding (1941), and Colonel Sanders (1890). The hosts linger on Tolstoy’s moral architecture — his novels as expansive examinations of individual choices rippling through society, and his later-life turn toward simplicity and social reform.
- 💡 Fact of the day: A group of cats is called a "clowder" — a charming, evocative term that reframes how we imagine cat social dynamics and naming conventions in natural history.
