As early humans spread out across the world, their toughest challenge was colonizing the Americas because a huge ice sheet blocked the route. It has long been thought that the first Americans were Clovis people, who arrived 13,000 years ago. But an underwater discovery in Mexico suggests people arrived earlier — coming by boat, not on foot. [Originally aired in 2015]

Life is good for Jack, Carter and Harlan, three inept ne'r-do-wells who help run master dope-grower Malcoms flourishing marijuana plantation somewhere in northern California. But then Malcom is suddenly bumped off by a mysterious assailant, after a moment of panic, the naive trio decide to take over the business themselves. However, their lazy days on the dope farm have ill prepared them for the high-stakes game of finding buyers for millions of dollars of contraband. As they plunge into a shadowy new world of duplicity, double-dealing and danger, they soon find that they have gotten in way, way over their heads. But driven on by increasing greed and paranoia, it's too late to back out. Homegrown stars Billy Bob Thornton, Hank Azaria, Kelly Lynch, John Lithgow, Jon Tenney, Ryan Phillippe, Jon Bon Jovi, Kleoka Renee Sands, Matt Ross, and Judge Reinhold.

Dean Booker on the Week One Episode of This Week on the Yard presented by the HBCU Esports Alliance and Gillette.

Gold is rarely discovered by accident. Long before gold is recovered, refined, or extracted, nature quietly leaves behind patterns that reveal exactly where it came from.
In this in-depth documentary, you’ll learn how to read river rocks, sediment behavior, and geological flow patterns to understand where gold is most likely to be found upstream. Rather than focusing on tools or techniques, this video explains the natural decision-making process of gold itself — how weight, erosion, and time shape its final resting place.
By combining natural observation, geological logic, and real-world examples from North American rivers, this film shows why most prospectors unknowingly walk past gold every day. The signs are visible — but only if you know how to interpret them.
This is not a shortcut, a trick, or a get-rich-quick method. It’s a calm, professional explanation of how gold reveals itself long before anyone ever tries to extract it.
If you want to understand gold the way experienced geologists do — before you ever touch a pan or a tool — this video will change how you see rivers forever.

00:00 – Why Gold Is Rarely Found by Chance
02:18 – How Rivers Record Geological History
05:07 – What River Rocks Reveal Before Gold Appears
08:42 – The Mistake Most Prospectors Make Reading Streams
12:36 – Why Gold Moves Differently Than Other Materials
16:51 – Natural Traps That Quietly Collect Gold
21:04 – How Upstream Clues Predict Downstream Finds
25:39 – Geological Patterns Most People Walk Past
30:12 – Why Gold Is Missed Even by Experienced Eyes
33:47 – Learning to Read Gold Before Searching for It

(Lyrics):
[Chorus]
Today, I don't feel like doing anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like picking up my phone
So leave a message at the tone
'Cause today, I swear, I'm not doing anything, uh

[Verse 1]
I'm gonna kick my feet up, then stare at the fan
Turn the TV on, throw my hand in my pants
Nobody's gon' tell me I can't, nah
I'll be lounging on the couch, just chillin' in my Snuggie
Click to MTV, so they can teach me how to dougie
'Cause in my castle, I'm the freaking man
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh-oh, yes, I said it (Ooh-ooh)
I said it, I said it, 'cause I can (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

[Chorus]
Today, I don't feel like doing anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like picking up my phone
So leave a message at the tone
'Cause today, I swear, I'm not doing anything
Nothing at all
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, ooh
Nothing at all
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, ooh

[Verse 2]
Tomorrow, I'll wake up, do some P90X
Meet a really nice girl, have some really nice sex
And she's gonna scream out, "This is great!" (Oh my God, this is great)
Yeah, I might mess around and get my college degree
I bet my old man will be so proud of me
But sorry, pops, you'll just have to wait

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh-oh, yes I said it (Ooh-ooh)
I said it, I said it, 'cause I can (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

[Chorus]
Today, I don't feel like doing anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like picking up my phone
So leave a message at the tone
'Cause today, I swear, I'm not doing anything

[Bridge]
No, I ain't gonna comb my hair (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
'Cause I ain't going anywhere (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
I'll just strut in my birthday suit (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
And let everything hang loose (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Oh, today, I don't feel like doing anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like picking up my phone
So leave a message at the tone
'Cause today, I swear, I'm not doing anything
Nothing at all
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, ooh
Nothing at all
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, ooh
Nothing at all

The Blackening centers around a group of Black friends who reunite for a Juneteenth weekend getaway only to find themselves trapped in a remote cabin with a twisted killer. Forced to play by his rules, the friends soon realize this ain’t no motherf****** game. Directed by Tim Story (Ride Along, Think Like A Man, Barbershop) and screenplay and screen story by Tracy Oliver (Girls Trip, Harlem) & Dewayne Perkins (The Amber Ruffin Show, Brooklyn Nine-Nine), The Blackening skewers genre tropes and poses the sardonic question: if the entire cast of a horror movie is Black, who dies first?

Lionsgate and MRC present, a Story Company / Tracy Yvonne / Artists First / Catchlight Studios production.

Meet Michael Hoffman, a former athletic coach who transformed his life through the vending machine business. Starting with just $14,000 in savings and a sharp eye for opportunity, Michael built his vending company, Modern Amenities, into a nationwide operation generating $75,000 monthly in revenue.

Growing up on a farm, Michael learned early lessons about entrepreneurship from his father. After college, he became a traveling athletic coach, making just $1,200 per month. During his countless hours in airports, Michael noticed something: vending machines were everywhere, but they offered overpriced, unhealthy options. This observation sparked an idea that would forever change his life.

Despite having no prior experience with vending machines, Michael taught himself the industry from the ground up. Today, his company stands at the forefront of vending machine innovation, with smart machines that use AI to track inventory, prevent theft, and even recognize customer preferences. His machines can be found in prime locations across the country, serving quality products that break the mold of traditional vending machine offerings.

In this episode, Michael shares his journey to becoming a successful vending machine business owner. Learn how he identified untapped market opportunities, negotiated prime locations, and leveraged AI technology to build a thriving automated retail empire – all while starting from zero industry experience.

Stephen Thompson | August 15, 2023
The Tiny Desk has hosted plenty of major pop, rock and hip-hop stars in its 15-plus years, but you'd be hard-pressed to find one more agreeable or self-effacing than Austin Richard Post. Whether lamenting the state of his singing voice, joking about his nerves or sitting slack-jawed in awe of the fantastic band his people had assembled for this show, Post had the bearing of a lottery winner who wouldn't even give himself credit for buying a ticket.

Before, during and after the show, Post Malone was a joy to have around. But he also just happened to bring a few of the biggest pop hits of the 21st century: Set-opener "Sunflower," for example, has been certified eighteen-times platinum by the RIAA since its release in 2018 — that's an all-time record — while the 2017 single "I Fall Apart" and 2019's "Circles" lag behind at a mere ten-times platinum apiece. "Enough Is Enough," which closes this set, enjoys no such designation, but give it time: A track from Post Malone's new album Austin, it's only been out for a few weeks.

So enjoy this set for what it is: one of the world's biggest stars, performing a few of the world's biggest songs, each set to a luminous arrangement. Post Malone himself seems surprised by how great this Tiny Desk concert sounds, and that's not just the humility talking.
