I don’t have an organized presentation, just a few random-ish, long-ish items you may view now or later or never, as you prefer. (As always, really.)

For starters, Vox, the kings of super-simplified video content, present a collage of tiny snips of 2022’s most prominent events. [7:24]

In recognition of the considerable talk about torrone in these threads recently, here is Chef John’s recipe. [9:05]

GQ sits down with Weird Al Yankovic and gets his recollections about a dozen or so of his best-known songs. [17:12]

Since we’re still in solstice season, here are a couple of British Museum curators, using objects in a huge Stonehenge exhibition there to discuss who the people at Stonehenge were and how their culture changed over the centuries the henge was being built and used.

Sadly, the exhibition is over so the material available at its web page at the museum is much reduced, but there is a beautiful picture of the Nebra Sky Disc there, and indeed, there are a number of wonderful images in a collection meant for teachers, that just aren’t identified there any more. (If you’re determined to learn more, the exhibit catalog is still available.) [23:45]

I know that everyone here knows how the Dead closed down Winterland in 1978 (really, 1979), playing from midnight New Year’s Eve until breakfast was served. Seems like one could do worse for an at-home NYE soundtrack. Set list here. [4:15:56]
