Adam Savage joins chef Traci Des Jardins at her restaurant Jardinière for a closer look at a possible future of food.

Human Evolution in 1,000 Years
Evolution never stops — the timeline for evolution is usually measured in hundreds of thousands or even millions of years. But in just over a century, the height of the average American male has increased three inches and there have been adaptations to disease in the span of decades. Some of the most radical evolutionary shifts may come from our own doing, as gene editing technologies like CRISPR allow for extreme fine-tuning of the human genome, and the growing potential for interfacing our biological selves with computers. And in 1,000 years, we might not be living on Earth at all.

King Kennedy Bespoke Reclaimed Rug Duffle Bag
As items that go underfoot, rugs naturally take a lot of abuse. That makes them ideal as a building block for luggage like King Kennedy's duffle bag. It's crafted from antique Caucasian rugs woven in the late 1800s — so not quite as tough as the synthetic ones from the local Home Depot — and supple Italian leather. By the nature of their construction, each one is unique, but they share an interior zip pocket, zippered closure, and an included shoulder strap, luggage tag, and dust bag.

Buy This Vitara
You could drop $50 million on an ultra-rare Ferrari with a successful racing pedigree — but no Ferrari has been to the Moon. Or ran with dinosaurs. Or can driven with sharks under the sea. This 1996 Suzuki Vitara has done all those things, and there's authenticated footage to prove it. Eugene Romanovsky wants you to #BUYMYVITARA, and you'd be a fool not to.
Doodlebug
There's something in his apartment. A man looking for an insect-like thing devolves into a bout of insanity as his subconscious mind begins to strangle his waking one. Directed by Christopher Nolan while studying English literature in 1997, Doodlebug foreshadows some of the techniques that would become hallmarks of his later work.
