Big Bird and the crew have left Sesame Street to get behind the NPR tiny desk. Starting with their iconic theme song, the muppets perform a joyful medley of some of their most beloved anthems.

The Air Force 1 has spent more than four decades proving it belongs almost anywhere. Now Nike takes the iconic silhouette back to one of the ideas that helped shape it. Originally inspired in part by the Nike Approach hiking boot, Bruce Kilgore's legendary design returns with a rugged update featuring a durable textile upper and a Vibram outsole built to tackle terrain beyond the pavement. Nike Air cushioning preserves the everyday comfort that made the AF1 a cultural icon, while the trail-ready sole adds dependable traction for mountain hikes, weekend escapes, and everything in between. It is a fitting evolution for Nike's best-selling sneaker, reminding us that the Air Force 1 has always been built to explore beyond the court.

Salt & Stone occupies the increasingly rare space where performance body care and luxury fragrance genuinely overlap. Founded in Los Angeles by former professional snowboarder Nima Jalali, the brand was born from years spent battling sun, wind, cold, and altitude, resulting in a collection of body-care essentials designed to work as hard as they smell good. Its formulas combine naturally derived actives from the sea and mountains with sophisticated, gender-neutral scent profiles that extend across deodorants, body washes, lotions, oils, creams, and mists, creating a layered ritual rather than a collection of standalone products. Signature fragrances like Santal & Vetiver, Bergamot & Hinoki, and Black Rose & Oud feel more akin to niche perfumery than traditional grooming products, while ingredients such as niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, seaweed extracts, spirulina, and prebiotics keep the focus firmly on skin health. The result is a brand that treats daily body care less like maintenance and more like a sensory ritual built for people who demand equal parts wellness, performance, and scent.

Vancouver's Said The Whale already has a reputation for creative music videos, having won Canada's Audience Award at the Prism Prize and British Columbia's Leo Award for "UnAmerican".

After racking up the SXSW Audience Award for Narrative Spotlight and distribution from Roadside Attractions, directors Tyler Nilson and Michael Schwartz shared a look at their indie The Peanut Butter Falcon.

Lil Nas X has released his follow-up to "Old Town Road" and it doesn't disappoint. The Atlanta rapper takes his Billy Ray Cyrus and raises a Kurt Cobain by sampling Nirvana's 1992 single "In Bloom."

Not every sneaker has to chase the next big innovation. Sometimes the right choice is the one you reach for every morning. Nike's V5 RNR leans into the layered aesthetics of early-2000s running shoes while prioritizing everyday comfort over race-day performance. A breathable mesh upper paired with synthetic leather overlays deliver a technical look, accented by metallic details and a signature 3D Swoosh. Underfoot, a chunky yet lightweight foam midsole and plush collar cushioning keep long days comfortable, while a rubber outsole with Y2K-inspired grooves provides dependable traction. Designed for daily wear while retaining athletic performance, the V5 RNR proves that retro design still belongs in the everyday rotation.

Animation, music, Thom Yorke, and Paul Thomas Anderson. There's nothing here that sounds bad, but unfortunately, there's also nothing to glean from the teaser trailer released by Netflix. The only clue is the definition of a one reeler: a short, 10-12 minute animation or comedy popular during the silent film era. We'll have to wait until June 27 to find out.
