Madonna has been making headlines and selling out stadiums for decades, but she wasn't always that big. Check out this vintage video of her performing at the Danceteria in Hell's Kitchen back in 1982. She is young, full of energy and a fresh voice, plus has 3 backup dancers that look like they came from a high school talent show.

.New Land. is a short, surreal film from cinematographer Steffen Krones that follows a turtle through an existential journey all around New York City, learning about and observing bizarre life all around.

Queens is an often-overlooked borough for pizza, but it boasts a rich history of pizzerias, many of which have been operating since the 1960s and are still family-owned. Unlike the well-known pizza scenes in Brooklyn and Manhattan, Queens pizzerias often use unique techniques like baking pizzas on custom-made screen door material and stretching dough with oil instead of flour. They also frequently use local cheese distributors, contributing to what some call the "orange slice," where cheese and sauce meld into a distinct orange hue. This distinct style and commitment to traditional methods make Queens a hidden gem for pizza lovers, offering a taste of New York's pizza history.
