Default Circuit breaker keeps tripping

How do I debug when a circuit breaker keeps tripping?

1. It has never tripped before (years).
2. Yesterday, it was tripped.
3. I flip it back on, and it trips immediately.
4. It controls a bunch of outlets and lights and that's about it.

I turn off the lights it controls.
I unplug all the outlets.

It still trips.

How do you debug these things?
