IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF LOVE

Published: March 4, 2022, midnight

I find myself in the surprising position of being the eldest male in my immediate family.  In these troubled times, As such i should be a positive role model for my family and could think of no better role model for myself than Fred Rogers of children's television fame. 

I met Mr. Rogers when I worked for PBS and got to see the man in action in a variety of settings. No matter where he went, he exerted a positive influence on the environment and magically made everyone become their best selves.  

This podcast shares some stories about my times with Mr. Rogers and speaks to the power of compassion, love acceptance. A print version of this podcast appears in the most recent edition of 3rd Act Magazine.
