Movies: Currently I'm in what one could call my "Lynchian phase".
Which started after me finding out that I've never really watched
one of his movies and that needed to be changed. So far I've seen
Blue Velvet, Wild At Heart (loved both) and Mulholland Dr. (what i
would call a good mindfuck). Lost Highway: already one of my
favorites. Next: Twin Peaks, the whole series!
Other movies I liked: Basically every Wes Anderson movie, Shame,
Where The Wild Things Are, Weekend, Moon, Drive, The Big Lebowski,
Inglourious Basterds, Scott Pilgrim, The Social Network, Donnie
Darko, Milk, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Into the Wild …
TV shows: Six Feet Under, The Sopranos, Breaking Bad, Mad Men,
Downton Abbey, Seinfeld, Arrested Development, The Larry Sanders
Show, Curb your Enthusiasm, Mr. Show, Portlandia, Community, Parks
and Recreation, Bored to Death, Eastbound and Down, Party Down,
Girls, Spaced, Flight of the Conchords, Louie, Life and Times of
Tim, Weeds, No Reservations, Adventure Time …
Books: Recently: Jonathan Ames and books about typology (quite
fascinating!)
Podcasts: Marc Maron's WTF, You Made It Weird (Pete Holmes!), Bill
Burr's Monday Morning Podcast, This American Life
Music:

I have a playlist consisting only of Mr. Big's "rock out with your
cock out"-songs, skipping all the schmoozy kitschy ballads, because
who really needs them?! Everytime I listen to it on the subway it
paints a big fat grin on my face. Love it.
Also I'm really into Crowded House right now. A few months back I
found out the first record of Spin Doctors is kind of really
amazing, I've been listening to that quite often.
Apart from that:
Prog (Haken, Porcupine Tree, Spock's Beard, Genesis, Gentle Giant,
Camel, …) Jeff Buckley, Kevin Gilbert, Fiona Apple, Joan As Police
Woman, Zero 7, Elvis Costello, The Frames, Jellyfish, Led Zep, …
the list goes on and on
