      @@chrisfrimoth7245 good question! Both were extremely convicted about morales and societal standards. One came from great wealth (if you read about Fred, his family was very well off), and the other from extreme poverty. But in the end, to me, they both strove for relatively the same things

      @@edk2221 ​ @ed k Thanks for your input. My dad got to know Fred and became friends for many years. Dad interviewed Fred several times over the years. Fred certainly had a loving environment growing up and that suited him well for his vocation. Malcolm was a fighter and sadly misunderstood. I appreciate your thoughts.

    Self-love is extremely important...love yourself first cause you can't truly love anyone else til you do. I learned this in a rehabilitation program recently.

    I’m amused that Mister Rogers said he hated the minister character on the Waltons and was happy when he was written off. You’d expect Mister Rogers to not even hate fictional characters!

    Though he doesn't give a date, the factory fire was from Mr. Rogers's 1st year in 1968
    At the time of this interviews, MRN was mostly out oof production though its reruns were still being shown, though done of the 68 episodes were being rebroadcast.
    I've seen the factory fire uploaded and it's on The Internet Archive and I can see why some kids were frightened of it.

    I've never seen the springtime show but the funny thing when Mr. Rogers resumed production, Betty's Little Theater was phased out. To this day I don't know why that happened.

    The part about Harvard and Yale is really foreshadowing of how big universities have become places that aren't open to discourse and debate on many things today, and often push new ideas as facts and truth.

      @@chrisfrimoth7245 He's trolling, BUT... "The Good Neighbor" is a biography written by Maxwell King and published with the approval of Rogers' widow and family. The book touches briefly on sexual orientation, and it quotes Mister Rogers saying that if sexual orientation was a scale of 1-10, he considered himself a five. Betty Aberlin, Lady Aberlin on the "Neighborhood," has also said that she got the impression from working closely with Mister Rogers that he was bisexual, but never really acted on it. He was faithful to his wife for their entire marriage, and they had a solid marriage.

    Meet Fred Rogers.
    Quiet. Soft spoken. Always smiling.
    But with a barely noticeable rage percolating just beneath the surface…
    “Mr. Rogers: Serial Killer”
    (Mr. Rogers glares at you with a bloody knife in his hand and blood on his cardigan, hissing “Won’t you be my SLAYbor?”)
    If they can make a movie turning Abe Lincoln into a vampire hunter, why not? 😉
