I and three other geologists just finished a livestreamed conversation about the fantastic Pennsylvanian trace fossils of North Alabama. These include the most important trace fossil site of its age, a story that stretches back to 1929, and the oldest known evidence of schooling in fish (with evidence for group behavior of tetrapods and invertebrates as well).

This video by the New York Dolls is possibly matched by the best of Baba Brinkman (check him out too: @Bababrinkman), but I don't think so. It is incredibly good.
