Most “Friends” fans probably remember Rachel’s famous “English Trifle,” a dish so bad that it allegedly tasted like feet. See, what happened was Rachel combined two recipes: an actual trifle and shepherd’s pie. The result? A disgusting mix of savory and sweet. Babish makes the recipe according to spec in the first part of this video, but it’s so bad that he actually can’t get it down. So instead, he tries to make something more palatable using corn bread, a more savory jam, and some delicious meats. If you try it, let us know how it goes in the comments. 

In case you missed the news, a Leonardo da Vinci piece called “Salvator Mundi” just shattered a world record for auction prices: it sold for a mind-blowing $450 million dollars. This video let’s you go through that incredible process, from the beginning to the final gavel. You can start to feel the tension rise around the 200 million dollar mark. The auctioneer can hardly believe it when it passes 280 million. It slows down for a bit around 286, but then it jumps up to 300, causing everyone to applaud. When someone bids 350 everyone gasps––and there’s still a fifty million more to go! Tack on another fifty million in auction fees, and you’ve got yourself a world record.

Have you ever been so hungry that you felt like you could gain superhuman powers? Like maybe you could punch through a wall if there were a turkey on the other side, or pick up a car to get to a pizza underneath? Do you think that dogs can et so hungry that they feel like they could gain superdog powers? Well, this dog might have just broken some serious limits of doggie intelligence. He wanted this food so badly that he learned to say “mama,” which the woman feeding her kid was trying to get her kid to learn.

Do you enjoy the internet? Presumably you do, since you’re reading this text and watching this video. Well, enjoy it while it lasts. If you like getting open access to information––through Wikipedia and YouTube––then you’re in for a real disappointment. If you like having open access to the streaming services you pay for––like Hulu and Netflix––then get ready for frustration. The FCC just indicated that it’s going to end Net Neutrality, meaning your internet service provider will be able to throttle your access to information it doesn’t want you to have. 

Apple is the biggest name in smartphones––people wait in line for days in for their smartphones, and even though their phones aren’t always cutting edge people seem to think they are. Their biggest competitor, Samsung, fights for its share of the smartphone market––but even when Samsung loses a battle it wins the war. That’s because Apple gets its screens from Samsung. Learn about that business relationship in this video, as well as the difference between LCD and OLED and the science behind how they work.

Any classic rock fan knows that Freddie Mercury had one of the best voices of all time. But even if you’re not a classic rock fan, you have to admit that the man had a glorious set of pipes. But what made his voice so good? Of course he had a mind-blowing (and glass-shattering) range, but is that all there is to it? Not even close. He’s so delicate with his voice when he needs to be, but he can also throw some real thickness into his voice when he needs it. 

You might remember watching a video from your high school physics class of a singer belting out a high note and breaking a wine glass. Even though it seems like only a professional can do something like that, it’s not the case. You can break a glass right now if you wanted to, using only your voice. The only trouble is you have to be pretty loud and the glass would need to be right next to your face. That’s actually a terrible idea, so don’t do that. If you have a little microphone and amp set up, though, you can easily do it.

‘Oumuamua is a strange, strange object. First off, it’s an asteroid visiting form outside our solar system. Scientists have never seen that before. Second, it is about four hundred meters long and only forty meters thick. That means it is basically a massive, flying pencil. Learn more about how ‘Oumuamua was discovered, how long it will be in our own solar system, and where it will be heading next in this video.

Few can say that they fundamentally shaped a sport. Even fewer people can claim that they all but invented a sport. Rodney Mullen can say that and more. Street skating and all the accompanying tricks––ollies, kick flips, and so on––wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for Rodney Mullen’s obsessive skating. According to legend, he practiced nine or so hours a day, sometimes practicing all nights. He would constantly teach himself new tricks to demonstrate to skaters around the country, thus growing the sport. 

Stars have a definite life cycle. They form, they burn off their fuel, they expand, they explode, and they die. So far all stars have followed this cycle. Except for this star. Not only is it substantially brighter than most stars like it, but it seems to have exploded (again, much brighter than other stars its size) multiple times. If that isn’t interesting enough for you, this video also shares some recent discoveries that explain the haze over Pluto. 

For most of us, Scrabble is a game best played after Thanksgiving dinner or during a weekly family game night. Although those games may get pretty competitive, they’re nowhere near as competitive as professional Scrabble––which, yes, is an actual thing. In this video, some professional Scrabble players relive their best and worst moments in the game. You’ll learn a lot about the professional Scrabble scene: how they strategize, what kind of moves they try to make, and how well they remember their past moves. 

In case you somehow missed the news. Louis C.K. was recently accused of sexually harassing several young comedians. He later admitted that the accusations were true, shaking the world of comedy to its very core. Sarah Silverman is Louis C.K.’s friend, and in this very emotional, very raw clip she weighs in on what it’s like to have someone you love admit to doing something so terrible. It’s hard to watch, but important.
