Found this, among others, the other day, thought of you. Turns out he's quite prolific and has a full touring schedule at a theater near you.

Sift and Tell (Talks Talk Post)
Sifted: http://www.videosift.com/video/What-do-teachers-make
When I was in high school there were many science and math teachers leaving to pursue higher paying jobs in the tech industry. I found that situation to be rather sad. Taylor Mali's love of teaching has always given me goosebumps.

I'm studying to be a teacher and my older brother, who is a LAWYER, was giving me a really hard time about it a few weeks ago and this video made me want to punch him in the face all over again. LOVE LOVE LOVE it!

'Voix du Mali' - 113 featuring Oumou Sangaré
Oumou Sangare is fantastic. This, however, was one of the worst things I have heard in a long time and goes to show that I should have gone to Mali a few years ago when I had the chance.

Rockapella - Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?
Well she sneaks around the world from Kiev to Carolina,
She's a sticky-fingered filcher from Berlin down to Belize,
She'll take you for a ride on a slow boat to China,
Tell me where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?
Steal their Seoul in South Korea, make Antarctica cry Uncle,
From the Red Sea to Greenland they'll be singing the blues,
Well they never Arkansas her steal the Mekong from the jungle,
Tell me where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?
She go from Nashville to Norway, Bonaire to Zimbabwe,
Chicago to Czechoslovakia and back!
Well she'll ransack Pakistan and run a scam in Scandinavia,
Then she'll stick 'em up Down Under and go pick-pocket Perth,
She put the Miss in misdemeanor when she stole the beans from Lima,
Tell me where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?
Oh tell me where in the world is... Oh tell me where can she be?
Ooh, Botswana to Thailand, Milan via Amsterdam,
Mali to Bali, Ohio, Oahu...!
Well she glides around the globe and she'll flimflam every nation,
She's a double-dealing diva with a taste for thievery,
Her itinerary's loaded up with moving violations,
Tell me where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?
Ali Farka Touré - Diaraby (African Desert Blues)
Ali Ibrahim "Farka" Touré (October 31, 1939 in Timbuktu, Mali - March 6, 2006 in Bamako, Mali) was a Malian singer and guitarist, and one of the African continent's most internationally renowned musicians. His music is widely regarded as representing a point of intersection of traditional Malian music and its North American cousin, the blues. The belief that the latter is in fact historically derived from the former is reflected in Martin Scorsese's often quoted characterization of Touré's tradition as constituting "the DNA of the blues."
