Netflix: My Octopus Teacher---as a biologist, this was fascinating and the free diving off of South Africa was a visual feast. The story is odd at some levels. If you love the natural world, the pros will outweigh the cons.
Occupied: a three season European series on a future where the US is no longer in Nato and a supplier of Oil and Gas (Norway), wanting to "go Green" for the world, announces plans to stop supplying petroleum leads to a Russion takeover with the EU's collaboration. Lots of twists and turns and quite engaging.
Amazon Prime: I love Ska and tried out the documentary, Pick it Up. Unless you are a die-hard fan of Ska, don't watch this.
Podcasts: Short 5 minute historical factoid articles from The Washington Post are interesting, Retropod. Examples include: The Soviet officer who stopped WWIII and The Origins of the NRA.
Rachel Maddow's Bag Man was a fascinating research of political corruption in our lifetimes. I knew about it but did not know about it.
