"We can be heroes..."

14 Feburary 2026: "Many pundits have observed that the world hasn’t been quite right since David Bowie went from earthly starman to heavenly black star a decade ago. 2016 was hard on the world, and especially cruel for music fans the year we lost both Bowie and Prince. But in 2026, as we persist in the fallen world, Bowie left us one marked by cruelty, strife and hardship. And as people on street do their best to fight back against injustice, I can’t help but think that the Thin White Duke had it exactly right. We really all can be heroes. Just for one day." --Chris Molanphy at the end of Part 2 of the Hit Parade episode about David Bowie. 

I found this ending so moving. Molanphy isn't usually this pointed and stirring in his (always excellent) podcast. But these are extraordinary times and we need all the inspiration we can get.
