Google earth crossed with radioooo. It’s a map and you click on the little green dots and listen to radio from wherever that place is. The world is all alive and happening right now. People are sitting in traffic in Madagascar, and they are listening to THIS!!! There’s a static buried folk song barely squeaking out of a small broadcast room somewhere in Siberia. I love swiping around on there digging for gold beneath all the classic rock.

Again, I'm using this category as an umbrella so I can list my favorite movies that I think by watching will make everyone's life better or at least distract you from whatever bullshit is going on in your own life for a moment, and put a smile on your face. Maybe you'll even relate to what the characters in the films are going through and you'll feel a little bit less alone and it will change your life forever. These are my favorite movies that I watch over and over again: An Unmarried Woman, Swingers, Annie Hall, Broken English, Girlfriends. Last Days of Disco, and Hannah and Her Sisters. And one of my favorite theaters to watch movies in in New York City is Metrograph. A sanctuary. A safe haven. The programming is extraordinary. And they have a wonderful restaurant upstairs called The Commissary. Run don't walk.

I like having a historical record of the shows I've been to, and I'm sad that many places don't do physical tickets anymore. How do we fix this? Does anyone know a guy?

You gotta have a library card, but why wouldn’t you? Do you live somewhere with no library? Maybe move? My library, and I think most of them?, is connected to Kanopy and I love watching excellent and weird and sometimes boring as hell movies on there.

Full disclosure, she is my partner and she painted the painting on the cover of my new album. Am I allowed to put her here? I just totally love her paintings and I’d be a huge fan from any huge distance of time and space. I love the weird dreamy landscape-ish paintings that were happening in Norway in the 1880-1910 zone, and of course Munch, and I feel like Indigo is carrying forward that same slippery tradition. Paintings of what she saw, not what she sees. Get it? Like, not the vivid thing but the dreamed memory of the thing, its beating heart.

Somebody made this big playlist of all the music, songs and little scraps, all of it, from Twin Peaks season 3 (“the Return”). I love that “show” so much. It’s so varied and funny and beautiful and mysterious, a total masterpiece built on an already masterpiece foundation. I put this music on all the time, in every context, and it always weirdens and deepens the experience.
