1. Fred Rogers!!

First, a remix, from the Symphony of Science producer:

Then, his absolutely incredible US Senate hearing testimony:

Oh, and here's the remix B-side:

Enjoy, my good friends.

4. I've had, for years, a Mr. Rogers fridge magnet

It reminds me to listen too, to the softer, kinder voices ~

What a wise, wonderful man he was.

5. Indeed. Sadly he's now gone.

Make sure you click through to his Senate testimony, above. It's extraordinary. From 1969, those days are sadly gone, like Fred.

2. Twitch has a channel that has been streaming Mister Rogers' Neighborhood 24/7.

Not sure how long it will continue to go on for.

An example: "We are all connected!":

Hope you enjoy. This is good shit, my friend. Enjoy Richard Feynman's drumming throughout.
