And Jason Kottke suggests you check out the documentary Senna -- about the Brazilian Formula One driver, and two mini-documentaries about HAM. Show notes

- Donwill of hiphop group Tanya Morgan recently released a very cool concept album and series of videos based on the movie High Fidelity, with Donwill assuming the character of "Don Cusack". Check out the video for Laura's Song, from Don Cusack in High Fidelity, above.
- Raphael Saadiq has released "Radio" from his new album Stone Rollin' which has a jangly, Motown-ish feel. The album will be out this March. Also: Check out this video of Saadiq, spending some time in New Orleans with the nonprofit kids' music program Roots of Music (and looking super sharp in the process). For every view, Spin will donate $1 to Roots of Music.
- Charlie Todd of Improv Everywhere invites you to be a part of No-Pants Subway Ride 2011 this weekend. Find out how you can participate in NYC or elsewhere.
