We often take for granted the objects that make up our everyday lives. From toothbrushes to pencils, from gas stoves to toilets, from silverware to toothpaste, many of the things we use daily have a rich and fascinating past.
Several of these items were developed over centuries of trial and error, while others evolved from primitive versions to their contemporary counterparts.
For example, toothpaste has been around since the early Egyptians, while pencils and pens date back to the 16th century. Toilets, on the other hand, started in the 17th century and have since been improved with modern mechanisms.
This episode takes a trip through the past of these everyday things, giving interesting insights into human history and how technology has evolved over time.
