Music:

This question can't be answered fairly. Aaaarg. Most of what happened musically pre-1968, with an emphasis on sloppy, badly-performed Kinks covers produced by Scandanavian high-schoolers. Garage, Eurobeat, British Invasion, Surf from landlocked areas, Girl groups. Late 80s thru late-ish 90s punk and hardcore. Some indie. Folk music. New Wave. etc, etc.

Movies:

A Hard Day's Night, Help, Harold and Maude, Most Woody Allen, You Can't Take it With You, His Girl Friday, etc. Screwbal comedies, dark comedies, dramas not involving a lover dying of a fatal disease, documentaries, documentaries, documentaries, foreign language films of said genres. On occasion I can be forced to sit through a musical.

Television:

Monkees. Always. No exceptions.

Social and Cultural histories, kids books, nearly anything costing less than a quarter (past or present).

Heroes:

The Almanac singers, Lord Buckley, Alice Paul.
