This is, unsurprisingly, very good.

Charlie Puth: Tiny Desk Concert

Ashley Pointer | August 4, 2026 Charlie Puth walked into the Tiny Desk and turned it into a jazz club. Known for crafting some of the biggest pop records of the last decade, Puth approaches the Desk less like a hitmaker and more like a bandleader, reimagining familiar songs with fresh arrangements that spotlight the musicianship at his core. With effortless precision — and plenty of spontaneity — he guideshis band through each song, shaping dynamics in real time like a professor leading a masterclass. "We Don't Talk Anymore" opens with a colorful vamp before unfolding into what Puth jokingly calls "the version I wish came out," trading glossy pop production for rich harmony and space to breathe. Performing another hit, "Attention" leans into an early '90s, Michael Jackson-inspired groove, extending the outro into a jam. Introducing "See You Again," Puth reflects on how much of his music is inspired by church. This version, wildly different from the one that soundtracks the Furious 7 tribute to actor Paul Walker, swells into a warm, worship-like song. Closing the set with "Changes" from his latest album, Whatever's Clever!, Puth leaves behind any notion that he is just a pop songwriter and producer. These arrangements reveal an artist deeply fluent in the language of harmony, groove and collaboration — one who's still approaching music with the curiosity of a lifelong student.

@techconnectify.bsky.social Should I be worried about the Hyundai/Kia ICCU issue? Context: We have a PHEV in the house, which is *perfect* for my wife's use case. I currently have a 2018 VW Golf R, and I'm thinking about the 5N or EV6 GT to replace it. But the ICCU thing scares me. Thoughts?

@liss.bsky.social I fully appreciate how frustrated you were and I feel bad that happened… but I just wanted to say that the pure number of Casey f-bombs and various other colorful words in #699 are well worth all the years of membership thus far and well into the future 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Goose fans — and probably those from other jam bands — like to bicker in a friendly way about what is the "Jam of the Year". There's a lot of year left, and this isn't even my current #1 for JOTY, it's up there for me. It's totally okay if this is not your thing! But it is mine.

fixing the court is table stakes for any Dem running for national office, you are not a serious candidate if you can’t get on board with this and refusing to do so is disqualifying in a primary because it doesn’t matter what your policy positions are if SCOTUS will just overrule them

The Birthright citizenship ruling should be a wake up call to any Dem who is still on the fence about court reform. We are essentially one seat change away from the Court undoing Reconstruction by fiat.

while i'm at it, bonus callsheet fun fact, just for you: the 'pretty in pink' icon exists because a callsheet user complained about the slight purple tint on the icon, so with casey's permission… I WENT HARDER.

Jelly@jellystyle.com · 2mo ago

my favourite part of the callsheet icon showing up in the WWDC app rap is that they used the original, not the one we had to whip up to avoid """copyright infringement."""

Casey Liss@liss.bsky.social · 2mo ago

I couldn't tell if they made a physical version of the Callsheet icon for that music video, but if so, my kingdom if someone on the inside can get their hands on it.
