World's First Milk Sommelier
While he's not technically the world's first milk sommelier — that award goes to Napoleon Dynamite — Bas de Groot does savor the complexities of cow's milk much in the way of fine wine. Great Big Story talked with de Groot in California's Sonoma Valley wine country as he sampled the milk at Clover Sonoma's Bucher Farms.
Tour de Pharmacy
Next up in his line of HBO mockumentaries, Andy Samberg is taking on the medium stakes game of cycling. As the title implies, the 7 Days In Hell follow-up will poke fun at doping in professional cycling through a fake 1982 documentary — grainy VHS quality included. The cast boasts some pretty impressive names including John Cena, Daveed Diggs, Orlando Bloom, Will Forte, Kevin Bacon, Mike Tyson, J. J. Abrams, and even Lance Armstrong. The film is set to premiere July 8, 2017 on HBO.

Trashie
Trashie's Take Back Bag is the easiest way to get rid of clothing and other textiles you do not need anymore. Simply buy a bag (or a bundle of them) fill it up, mail it back, and Trashie will ensure those items never make it to landfills, rerouting them to third-party retailers Trashie individually vets for compatibility. That means your old T-shirt, depending on its condition, could end up going to someone in need or being broken down to create carpet padding or pet bed filling, among other things. You earn exactly $30 in TrashieCash for each bag you send back, which you can redeem for deals — direct cash equivalent or a certain percentage off — to buy yourself new things from your favorite brands.
