In this episode, Michael and Tom have another conversation with their dear friend, Tim Madigan. Tim was the very first guest on the program six seasons ago. Tim is a journalist and author of several books. But the one book highlighted in this episode is one that was instrumental in the founding of Someone To Tell It To.
That book is I’m Proud of You: My Friendship with Fred Rogers.
This is off the Open Stage Website A true story of a life-altering friendship...
Tim Madigan, an “anonymous guy who wrote stories for a newspaper in Texas,” and Fred Rogers, the icon of children’s television and one of history's most beloved celebrities, formed an unexpected, deep friendship. "You know him, at least if you are of a certain age, as Mister Rogers, the icon of children’s television, America’s secular saint, loving and gentle, wise and compassionate. I knew him as my friend, Fred… I considered him to be one of my closest friends. In fact, it’s no exaggeration to say that if it were not for Fred Rogers, I might not be around today, alive to tell you my story..."
Tim Madigan invites us into his memories and friendship with a man who shaped more than a generation—simply with his kindness.
