    The history of toys

    Max Pearson presents a collection of the week’s Witness History episodes from the BBC World Service. We learn about how Play-Doh evolved from a cleaning product to a childhood favourite and the creation of one of the best-selling board games of all time, Catan. Our guest is the editor of Toy World Magazine, Caroline Tonks, who takes us through the history of toy crazes. We also hear about the invention of the hoverboard, and how the Tamagotchi allowed people to have their own virtual pet. Plus, how the family favourite game, Jenga, was born in 1970s Ghana. And our Sporting Witness looks at how a piece of software revolutionised the game of football through data analysis. Contributors: Peg Roberts – daughter of Kay Zufall Benjamin Teuber – son of Catan inventor Klaus Teuber Caroline Tonks – editor of Toy World Magazine Shane Chen – the inventor of the hoverboard Akihiro Yokoi – the inventor of the Tamgotchi Leslie Scott – the creator of the game Jenga Ramm Mylavaganam – inventor of ProZone (Photo: The Tamagotchi was introduced in 1996 and is one of the best-selling toys in history.

    One of the most popular foods around the world is the hamburger. If most people think of American foods, it is probably the first thing that they might think of.  Hamburgers are pretty simple in terms of what they are composed of and how they are prepared, but they have developed an enormous amount of diversity.  But where did this popular food originally come from, and how did it manage to spread around the world?Learn more about the history of the hamburger and how it grew in popularity on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

    The Zodiac Killer

    1968 marked the beginning of one of the most infamous killing sprees in American history. For two years, Northern California was terrorized by a series of seemingly random murders. It wasn’t just the killings that terrorized people; it was the fact that the killer taunted the police and the media through a series of cryptic letters sent to newspapers.  Over 50 years later, the case still hasn’t been closed and remains one of the most notorious unsolved crimes in American history.  Learn about the Zodiac Killer, what we know, and speculation surrounding it on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
