Every Tuesday I share five things I've liked and think you might like too. Here are this week’s Five Things…

1. Snarky Puppy play NPR’s Tiny Desk! Such a great band and quite amazing they managed to fit them all in to the studio. Nice mini-lesson on polyrhythms at 8m 20s — Snarky Puppy: Tiny Desk Concert

2. Steve Lamacq interviews Taylor Hawkins of the Foo Fighters. I find it very inspiring when such an accomplished musician is so humble about what they can and can't do. — Taylor Hawkins Drumming Masterclass

3. An excellent episode of the Pessimist Archive podcast on recorded music — Recorded Music

4. In an increasingly polarised world how do you tell truth from lies and fact from fiction? The University of Washington have an excellent video series (available for free online) that will help you do just that — Calling Bullsh*t

5. Spotify served up tracks from a couple of albums that I hadn't listened to in quite a while yesterday. I'd loosely describe them both as indie pop/rock. Both are well worth a listen — Premonitions by Miya Folick and Crawl Space by Tei Shi.

1. Very cool! — Dreamy Cave-Like Photos Taken Inside Musical Instruments

2. I could do with reminding myself of this more often: "Will today’s emergency even be remembered? Will that thing you’re particularly anxious about have been hardly worth the time you put into it? Better question: What could you do today that would matter a year from now?" — A Year From Now

3. This is definitely true for me. Podcast listening has completely overtaken music listening — Americans Are Listening to Music Less and Spoken Word Audio More, Study Finds

4. Amazing footage — The Starling and Falcon Dance

2. Think you know the best way to lower your personal CO2 footprint? You are probably wrong! — What reduces our personal CO2 footprint? We have no clue!

3. A hilarious Twitter thread of reimagined Bond film posters — Bond Film Anagrams

4. I highly recommend David Attenborough's new BBC series "Seven Worlds, One Planet". I've watched the episodes on Antartica and Asia, and both were unsurprisingly excellent. This Attenborough fella is pretty good at this TV and nature stuff! — Seven Worlds, One Planet

4. This piece has damped my enthusiasm for AirBnb. Why can't we have nice things? — I Accidentally Uncovered a Nationwide Scam on Airbnb
