1000 Things You Should Know
1000 Things You Should Know is a smart, fast-paced podcast that delivers essential, strange, and often-overlooked knowledge — one episode at a time. Hosted by Ezra Wade, a wry and curious guide with a knack for making complex ideas feel simple and alive, the show dives into the things we wish we learned in school (or paid more attention to if we did). Each episode explores three different topics — spanning practical skills, historical truths, scientific oddities, forgotten facts, and cultural insights. Whether it’s how to start a fire with no tools, why the Library of Alexandria really burned, or how flat Earth myths survive today, Ezra blends clarity, dry humor, and wonder to make sure every fact sticks. This isn’t trivia. It’s the good stuff — the kind of knowledge that helps you understand the world better, survive it more skillfully, and see connections where most people don’t look. Because nobody knows everything.
But you can know a lot more.
