Entertainment!
Did we know there's another McFerrin in town doing it now? No, we did not.
Something a little silly.
Boo!
There is no end to the creativity of people.
I'm dropping into the middle of this livestream, but you should explore.
Old song, new music video, smart!
LEGO can do it all.
Just…wow. h/t Wimp Coffee
Two of my favorite things coming together in this live podcast.
Want a website? We got you.
Life changing.
I've been mildly obsessed with this "Hearing Songs for the First Time" playlist. Someone get Jon his horse!
Oldie but a goodie. Treat yo' self.
If there's an Oscar for YouTube video editing…
Enjoy some lovely choreography, cinematography, use of color, and, oh yeah, music!
Dick Van Dyke still singing and dancing. ❤️ The ending puts a big smile on my face.
Fascinated by this deep dive on language and song and why this phrase is sung like that today.
Stay for the bari sax solo.
Just a lovely and danceable Dungeons and Dragons animatic set to the tune Time For Crime by Orion Dommisse.
I need someone to make a frame-by-frame breakdown of this music video asap.
On a 12-string? Who knew?! I did not!
This research on game theory is a fascinating study on "winning" strategies that could be applied to many areas of life. In summary: Be nice, be forgiving, but don’t be a pushover.
Conversations that never took place between people who never met. (via the Syzygy Business newsletter)
An all-timer of aching songs. Watching this excellent cover, I realized that the piano is such a big key to the song. I had no memory that it was Bruce Hornsby accompanying Bonnie Raitt on the original!
The sigh at the end! 💓
As a boy skips down a street, his stride becomes bigger and bigger.
Song covers via the Famicom? I'm in!
Pikas are survivors.
This song drives and mesmerizes. Though I'll admit my favorite rendition is the one with the BBC Symphony Orchestra.
Has any other viral song been as virally viral over and over again? No. Deal with it, this is great.
Listen, you've got at least 3/4 of your life to go. Don't blow it.
It's mesmerizing to watch these two ladies speak.
YouTube recommended this to me and I watched it and now I want more.
Pretty interesting thoughts on AI and writing from one of the people who launched Wired. Particularly interesting that he looks at AI very similar to how we as software writers look at it.
Get up, get at it.
Another audacious project by my current favourite artist.
The Smile has a new album & a music video by Paul Thomas Anderson.
This looks like it’s going to hit me right in the eyes, ears, and heart.
From deep in my memory this returned, and now you can hear the best Star Wars rap that was ever rapped.
CGP Grey uses his platform for immense fun and a study in probability.
Just keep waiting, it’ll totally come...
"The whyness of humanity is a wonder to behold."
Just try to wash your hands without dancing.
One most go to great lengths to creat a bear-proof suit.
Nicolas Cage appears to be at his best in this one!
The ladies can dance! New School Leaders!
Pure art.
I'm not going to pretend that I know what he's talking about (I nearly flunked my one physics class back in college), but it's still cool to see the demonstration.
Developers. Developers.
Definitely worth remembering.
Michael Mann is still making movies! Adam Driver doing funny Italian English accent again!
Excellent trailer for a new David Fincher movie. (But when's the last time I've seen a good movie backed by Netflix... I think it was The Power of The Dog?)
The voice soothes, the band grooves.
IYKYK
Is this the best pop song ever written? It might be!
Masterpiece.
I watch this a couple of times each year.
Brando shared with me. I share with you. Leafhoppers are fascinating!
The song of the summer!
I laughed inside.
Someday I hope our Good Enough logo can get this animated.
This was my introduction to Knower, Louis Cole and one of my most-listened-to albums of last year.
If life is asking, here's what's up.
I only learned of this recently, which is a goddamn shame.
Game, Blouses.
Doom was one of the most important games of the late 1990s, ushering in an era of increasingly sophisticated first-person shooters. Technically it had many limitations, but one of the great things about the "modding" community is that they find ways to work around these kinds of things. Often in... unexpected... ways...
Bobby Fingers has only made three videos (so far), but they are all perfect
Special Thanks:
Matt Stone, Trey Parker, and DEEP VOODOO
It's a slow burn about a very nerdy thing, but there's something universally joyful about watching someone smart getting their mind blown.
One of the most pleasant, random surprises I've come across on YouTube.
One of the best video explainers on how games either succeed or fail at explaining their core mechanics to you, the player. Showcases the masterclass that is Mega Man X’s opening level.
What's there to say other than how and why?
Cory Wong (of Vulfpeck and the state of Minnesota) does this show on YouTube. I watched the episode with Nate Smith (drummer) and it was super interesting. The song and comedy is apparently just intro for the interview portion because at about 19 minutes it's interview the rest of the way through for 35 minutes. A detailed, musical interview.
I enjoyed everything about this. The Victor Wooten episode is amazing.
