00:00Satsang with Mooji
00:30It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood, a beautiful day for a neighbor.
00:38Would you be mine? Could you be mine?
00:42It's a neighborly day in this beauty. Would a neighborly day for a beauty.
00:47Would you be mine? Could you be mine?
00:51I have always wanted to have a neighbor just like you.
00:57I've always wanted to live in a neighborhood with you, so let's make the most of this beautiful day.
01:06Since we're together, we might as well say, would you be mine? Could you be mine?
01:13Won't you be my neighbor? Won't you please? Won't you please? Please won't you be my neighbor?
01:24Hi, neighbor. I'm glad we could be together today.
01:29I'd like you to guess what this might be.
01:33Do you have any idea?
01:35With a kind of a wheel on top and a stem on the bottom, there's even a hole down at the very bottom.
01:46Of course, if I turned it this way, the hole would be at the top.
01:55And the wheel would be at the bottom.
02:01I'll show you how it sounds if I go like this to the edge of it.
02:06Hear that ding?
02:13I can do that to the back part of it because it's not sharp back here.
02:20It is sharp on the front, though.
02:22I'll take you to the kitchen and show you a little more about it there.
02:26It's nothing for fish. Nope.
02:40And just pretend that there is something to eat on this tray.
02:47Something that fills almost the whole tray.
02:50And I will take this and cut like that.
02:59Cut like that.
03:02Cut like that.
03:04Cut like that.
03:07I'm cutting pieces of something.
03:10Pieces of something.
03:12Pieces of pizza.
03:13That's it.
03:14That's really a pizza cutter.
03:18Did you ever see one?
03:21Before?
03:24Well, Chef Brockett has a man at the bakery today who is making pizza.
03:31And that's why I wanted to show you this.
03:33He may use one of these, too.
03:35But I'd like you to meet him.
03:37Before I go, I want to show you something a friend of mine taught me once.
03:44Let me see if I can remember.
03:46Holding a tray like this.
03:47Not a glass one, of course.
03:50But a tin one or aluminum one like this.
03:54And try to turn it around so that you can keep it up like that.
04:02And not drop whatever's in it.
04:13I'll put that pizza cutter on it and try it now.
04:16See if I can do it with that.
04:17With that.
04:18A little shaky, but it takes a lot of practice.
04:29Yeah.
04:29If you have a plastic bowl or something like that, you could try it.
04:33Try balancing it.
04:34And I'd like to take you over to Chef Brockett's Bakery now, okay?
04:39So that I could show you that gentleman who makes pizza.
04:44Mm-hmm.
04:44Will you come?
04:46All right.
04:46To Chef Brockett's Bakery.
04:47Thank you very much.
05:12Hi, Brad.
05:13How are you?
05:14Good.
05:14Hi, Jose.
05:15Hello, Mr. Rogers.
05:16Buenos dias, Jose.
05:17Buenos dias.
05:18Como esta usted?
05:19Bien, gracias.
05:21Y usted?
05:21Muy bien, gracias.
05:22Y usted?
05:23Oh, we're having a buen dias here, I'll tell you.
05:26A buenos dias right here, huh?
05:28Yeah, right.
05:29Yes.
05:29I've showed my friends the cutter and the tray for the pizza, but I'd really like to show
05:35them how a pizza's made.
05:36Come on, friend, Jose, in the back.
05:37Come on back.
05:38Good.
05:39Come along.
05:40See you later, Jose.
05:41I'll see you.
05:42This is Joe Sabatini, Fred Rogers.
05:47I'm glad to meet you, Mr. Sabatini.
05:48Hi, Mr. Rogers.
05:48And this is Joe's boy, Gino.
05:50Hi, Gino.
05:51Hi.
05:52What a fine boy you are.
05:54You're here helping your dad.
05:55Yeah.
05:56Good.
05:57I'd like to see how a pizza's made.
05:59My friend has come with me, and I'd like very much to show them, if you may.
06:04Well, they've made a lot of pizzas.
06:06They really know how to do it.
06:07Good.
06:10First, we bang on the dough.
06:12We want to spread it as evenly as possible.
06:15Right, Gino?
06:16Mm-hmm.
06:17Gino helps me in the business here.
06:20Joe, I've been watching you do that all day.
06:23Could I?
06:23Could I try it once?
06:24Sure.
06:25You know how it is when you watch somebody, you really want to...
06:32That's not right too far, let me show you how to do it.
06:35Okay.
06:37Well, I see.
06:38Is that the way?
06:39Oh, with the tips of your fingers, huh?
06:40Yeah.
06:42That way?
06:42But flat, like this.
06:44Oh, I see.
06:45Not the very tips, but the try to go like this, but flat, huh?
06:49Yeah, like this.
06:50I get it.
06:51Look how he's learned from his dad.
06:53How about that, huh?
06:54Could I try it?
06:55Yeah.
06:55Go ahead, you try it, friend.
06:57Is it down like that?
06:59Yeah.
06:59Flat.
07:00That's right.
07:00No.
07:01You have to close your fingers.
07:03Oh, you close them.
07:05Yes.
07:05Now, what's the idea?
07:06To try to push it out and make it bigger, I think?
07:10Yes.
07:10Yeah.
07:13Well, sometimes I've spread it out there like that with a rolling pin.
07:16Yeah, I guess that wouldn't work with a pizza, huh?
07:18It's better to do with your hand.
07:19Some people use a rolling pin, but the hand method seems to work much better.
07:23Uh-huh.
07:24Right, Gino?
07:26Gino's getting to be an all-pro at this.
07:28Yeah.
07:29Father and son working that together.
07:32Yes.
07:32Get that up, Gino.
07:35We're making it bigger now.
07:38We're coming bigger together.
07:40Yes.
07:41Right away.
07:41Almost a full-size pizza, huh?
07:46Okay.
07:47Does he often help you at your shop?
07:48Yes.
07:50He spends quite a bit of time there helping me.
07:52And he's learning as well as he is helping me.
07:56I don't understand what you're doing now.
07:58I'm using my thumbs and forefingers to make the pizza bigger.
08:02Then we throw it up.
08:05I like that.
08:08Is that great?
08:10That's good.
08:10It's all over.
08:12Yeah, it's all over.
08:14No matter what else I was doing today, Fred,
08:17when it was time for Joe to throw the pizza,
08:19I kept coming back just to watch that, you know.
08:21I would hope so.
08:22That is really fun.
08:23I didn't know you could put it up in the air.
08:24That's something you'd have to practice a long time
08:26before you wouldn't know how to do that.
08:27Oh, sure.
08:34You build it on this board, huh?
08:36Oh, yes.
08:37See how he does the edges like that?
08:39Yes.
08:40What's that for?
08:41Well, what he does, he builds those edges up,
08:43and then all the things that he puts on the pizza
08:45to, you know, to make it taste better,
08:49all the different ingredients,
08:50they don't fly off there, you know.
08:52They don't roll away.
08:53It kind of holds all the cheese and whatever.
08:58Prevents it from falling off the edge.
09:01When you shake it in the oven,
09:02sometimes it has a tendency to fall off the edge.
09:05You don't have the...
09:06We don't crimp it.
09:07It's like a little fence all the way around there.
09:09Yes.
09:09Yes.
09:10A little fence or a little wall almost.
09:12Then to add further zest...
09:14Daddy, how come this is coming off?
09:16Oh, I'm sorry.
09:17Okay.
09:18There's another one.
09:19Yeah.
09:20We try to make them real nice, don't we, Gino?
09:22Well, the idea, I guess, Gino feels this to keep it inside the border.
09:28Okay.
09:28Yes.
09:29You know what I like about pizza?
09:32Do you know pizza means pie?
09:34Pie?
09:35Yeah.
09:35It's an Italian word for pie, right?
09:38Right.
09:38Definitely.
09:38You know what I like it?
09:40It's...
09:40You know, there's so many different kinds of people
09:42who like different kinds of things.
09:44Mm-hmm.
09:44And the thing I like about pizza, Fred,
09:47you can do it with sausage, for a person that likes sausage,
09:50or if somebody just likes cheese, you can just do it with cheese.
09:54Or if somebody likes a lot of different things,
09:56you can put a lot of different things on.
09:57Mm-hmm.
09:58Some people that don't eat meat, they do them with pizza.
10:02With tuna, tuna fish, too.
10:03Yes, that's correct.
10:05But the plain pizza one usually is just a cheese and tomato, right,
10:08to begin with.
10:09Yes, that's a basic plain pizza.
10:12Hey, Gino, what do you like on your pizzas?
10:14Um, I just like cheese, plain.
10:18He likes the plain cheese pizza.
10:19He likes the plain, see?
10:20That's the basic pizza.
10:21Uh-huh.
10:21With sauce on top of the cheese and nothing else.
10:26Just sauce and cheese.
10:28Now we're putting the sweet green peppers on, right, Gino?
10:31I hate them.
10:32You don't like those too well, huh?
10:35Okay, and some mushrooms.
10:38Sprinkle those on.
10:40I hate the mushrooms, too.
10:42But you like just the cheese.
10:43Is that a bowl because that's getting empty?
10:46You use the bowl in the back, too?
10:48Yeah.
10:48Okay.
10:51Okay.
10:51I like it with all those things.
10:53That's my kind of way.
10:55And Gino likes the plain kind.
10:57And he likes the plain kind.
10:58Have you always been interested in cooking?
11:01Yes.
11:02Ever since I was younger, my dad had the pizza shop, and I always became interested in seeing
11:08him make the pizza.
11:09So you learn from him?
11:11Yes.
11:11And then Gino's learning from you.
11:16See how we spread it on evenly?
11:18Mm-hmm.
11:19This way we make a nice, neat pizza.
11:21Mm-hmm.
11:22And the sauce kind of goes all around when it cooks, and everything kind of mixes together.
11:27But look, look how graceful.
11:29Daddy, the pepper's falling off.
11:30Oh, there's the pepper.
11:31There you go.
11:33Keep it all in the line.
11:34Boy, it's good to have a helper like Gino.
11:38He keeps me in line.
11:39Doesn't that look beautiful?
11:48I'll tell you, those people out there in the soda shop really enjoy it, too.
11:52Oh, yeah.
11:53I guess so.
11:54They've really been liking it.
11:55Have you been busy today?
11:56Oh, yeah.
11:57It's been tremendous.
11:58I'm really glad Joe came, because everybody's enjoyed it.
12:03Well, shall we put this with a little?
12:04Yeah, fine.
12:05Take her up.
12:06See how it goes.
12:09Smells good, huh, Fred?
12:12It sure does.
12:13Wow.
12:14Now, how long will that have to stay in there?
12:18Oh, perhaps 8, 10, 12 minutes, somewhere in there.
12:21I see.
12:21I saw a couple others in there.
12:23Are they almost ready?
12:24In fact, we have one just about ready to come out now.
12:27Yeah.
12:29I'd like to see one that's cooked.
12:31My pizza ready.
12:32Oh, Audrey.
12:33Hi.
12:34Hi, how are you?
12:35Fine, how are you?
12:36Good, are you in there cleaning?
12:37Oh, no, I'm in there helping.
12:40I took a day off today, and I'm having the best time.
12:42I love to cook, and I'm making sundaes and sodas that you wouldn't believe.
12:47A little extra whipped cream and a little extra everything.
12:49I bet.
12:50Odd's done a tremendous job for me.
12:52I've been so busy over there in the soda shop, I couldn't have done it without her.
12:55Well, I wondered who was helping.
12:57Yeah.
12:57There's a little more to me than my cleaning business.
13:00Well, I've known that for a long time.
13:03Oh, do you know what?
13:04I'd like to have, do you need every one of these, because I'd like to have one piece
13:06for Fred.
13:08No.
13:08Go ahead.
13:09No, I don't need it.
13:09All righty.
13:12Careful, it's hot.
13:12My customers are so hungry.
13:16You know, they order once, they want reorders.
13:20Okay, I'd just like to, oh, good.
13:21Excuse me.
13:27Well, I'll go take care of my hungry customers.
13:30Thanks for the good job, Art.
13:31Oh, you're welcome.
13:31See you soon.
13:32Bye.
13:33Bye-bye.
13:34Thank you very much for this.
13:35You're welcome.
13:36Boy, this was a treat to watch you make that, Mr. Savitini.
13:39Thank you, Mr. Rogers.
13:41I'm glad to meet you.
13:43You're a fine boy, Gina.
13:45Yep.
13:45Yep.
13:46I'm glad he knows it, too.
13:48Have a good day.
13:49We'll see you, Fred.
13:49Bye-bye.
13:50Did you see how he throws it up on you?
13:53Yeah, I saw it before.
13:54It's really something, huh?
13:56Great.
13:56Have a good day.
13:57You too, Mr. Rogers.
13:59Adios.
13:59Adios, Mr. Rogers.
14:04Come on.
14:04Come on.
14:20Gino helped his dad.
14:26He helps him with his pizza business just the way his dad helped his dad many years before.
14:34No wonder, no wonder, Gino feels so good about himself.
14:37I think I'll cut this piece that they gave me in two pieces so that I can give one piece to my one son
14:49and one piece to my other son for dinner.
14:56Now, now it's two pieces.
15:02Mm-hmm.
15:03Some people like to eat pizza a lot, and some people don't eat pizza at all.
15:09No.
15:10It sure was fun to see that being made.
15:16Fish food for the fish.
15:19Don't give them any pizza.
15:20There you are, fish.
15:31I was thinking about the way he threw that up in the air.
15:36The pizza, and then it came down.
15:38He caught it, worked with it.
15:41Something you have to practice, of course, to be able to learn that.
15:47There are lots of things you have to practice.
15:49You just can't make believe that they're going to happen, and then they happen.
15:54No.
15:56You can make believe it happens, or pretend that something's true.
16:01You can wish, or hope, or contemplate a thing you'd like to do.
16:06But until you start to do it, you will never see it through.
16:41You can't simply sit and look at it, because it won't move at all.
16:46But it's you who have to try it, and it's you who have to fall.
16:52Sometimes, if you want to ride a bicycle, and ride it straight and tall, you have to do it.
17:02Every little bit, you have to do it.
17:06Do it, do it, do it.
17:08Then when you're through, you can know who did it.
17:13Because you did it, you did it, you did it.
17:17It's not easy to keep trying, but it's one sure way to grow.
17:23It's not easy to keep learning, but I know that this is so.
17:28When you've tried and learned, you're bigger than you were a day ago.
17:34It's not easy to keep trying, but it's one way to grow.
17:41You have to do it.
17:45Every little bit, you have to do it.
17:48Do it, do it, do it.
17:50And when you're through, you can know who did it, for you did it, you did it, you did it.
18:04Let's have some make-believe, all right?
18:06Let's pretend something about pizza in the neighborhood of make-believe.
18:12Come on, Charlie.
18:16We could pretend that somebody throws a pizza up in the air.
18:20And since it's make-believe, it stays up there.
18:24All right, let's have that for neighborhood of make-believe.
18:27Ready, Charlie?
18:43Oh, I'm sorry, Charlie.
18:45Oh, it's just that I'm so very disturbed.
18:50No, no.
18:54It has nothing to do with Prince Tuesday.
18:57He's playing with his new box as happy as a clam.
19:04It's a pizza.
19:06I threw it up in the air, and it didn't come down.
19:09Oh, Charlie, I've just got to keep my eye on the sky.
19:26I'm sorry, Bob Dog.
19:29I really am sorry.
19:30It's just that everything's so very disturbing.
19:33Yeah, well, what's the matter?
19:34It's a pizza.
19:37I threw it up in the air, and it won't come down.
19:40And Edgar's so very angry with me, and oh, my.
19:44Oh, my is right.
19:46A pizza?
19:48That could fall down on my head.
19:51And they sometimes get very hot.
19:54Oh, Bob Dog, please don't go.
19:58I need your help.
20:00Edgar wants his pizza back right away.
20:02All right.
20:03All right.
20:04All right.
20:05Oh, let's go.
20:20Do you know the horses and we'll do our last song and we get a U.S.
20:29Well, let's go.
20:33Uh, did you lose a pizza too, X?
20:36Oh, no.
20:37I'm looking for my O.C.S. lesson.
20:39Oh.
20:40And we're looking for a flying pizza.
20:42Oh, well, we can all look together.
20:45Two, four, six, eight, ten.
20:47I know it's coming, but I don't know when.
20:50Two, four, six, eight, ten.
20:53I know it's coming, but I don't know when.
20:56X, X.
20:56When or where?
20:57Could that possibly be it?
20:59What?
20:59Oh, X.
21:00I think it is.
21:01What?
21:01I think it's coming.
21:03Oh, the pizza.
21:04Oh, that does look like a pizza.
21:07Look at it flying through the air.
21:09Look at that.
21:11Well, forevermore.
21:13Oh, thank you.
21:15Thank you, pizza.
21:17Oh, how nice it came down.
21:20Isn't it hot?
21:21No, because when it's up in the sky, it cools off.
21:25Oh, thank you.
21:27Thank you, pizza, for not landing on my head.
21:30Hey, hey, listen.
21:31Oh, dog.
21:32God dog.
21:32Listen, Miss Polificate.
21:34Yeah?
21:34What's that paper thing there on the pizza?
21:37Well, it's nothing I put on.
21:39Huh.
21:40Looks like a message.
21:42Yeah, it certainly does.
21:42It is a message.
21:43What's it say?
21:45It's not hot.
21:46It cools off in the air.
21:47All right.
21:48Well, now, wait a moment.
21:51O-C-S lesson for X the Owl, delivered by Pizza Parcel Post.
21:58Oh, my lesson by Pizza Parcel Post.
22:02P-P-P.
22:04And it says, enclosed is a test.
22:08Ask someone you like to ask you the questions.
22:12A test?
22:14Well, I haven't even had my lesson.
22:18Well, that's what this says.
22:20Enclosed is a test.
22:21Oh.
22:22Well, okay.
22:24My good old school wouldn't ask me to take a test unless they thought I was ready.
22:28That's right.
22:29Now, shall I open the question?
22:31Yeah.
22:31Fly right into it.
22:33Question.
22:34Can you count to ten by twos?
22:38Ten by twos?
22:39Why, sure I can.
22:41Two, four, six, eight, ten.
22:44I've been doing that for two days.
22:47Well, it says, congratulations.
22:50You have learned your lesson by using it.
22:53We hope you will continue to learn by doing.
22:57Learn by doing.
22:59Why, I learned without even trying.
23:02That's right, X.
23:03Well, I'm very proud of you, X.
23:08I'm proud of you.
23:11I'm proud of you.
23:12I hope that you are proud as I am proud of you.
23:17I'm proud of you.
23:18Well, thank you very much.
23:20I hope that you are proud of you, too.
23:23Yeah, well, I'm proud of me, too, but, uh...
23:26But, uh, what?
23:28But I was waiting for something new to do, and it's over already.
23:33My lesson's over already.
23:35Well, now, wait a minute, X.
23:36What?
23:37At the bottom of the page, it says, you may have been expecting a new lesson today.
23:42That's right.
23:43But, even though you learned your lesson well, we'll send you an optional lesson tomorrow.
23:49Optional?
23:50What does that mean?
23:52It means you can do it if you want to.
23:55Do it if you want to?
23:57Hey, you mean I can get a lesson and do it if...
24:00A two, four, six, eight.
24:02Who do we appreciate?
24:04OCS, keep those lessons coming.
24:06Oh, boy, I'll get another one.
24:08Thanks ever so much.
24:09Oh, boy, who do we appreciate, OCS?
24:13Yeah, who do we appreciate?
24:17Oh, well, I've got to get this pizza back to Edgar immediately.
24:21Yeah, wait a minute.
24:22Could I come?
24:24I'd like to see those pizzas made, too.
24:26Sure you can.
24:27Okay.
24:28But you know something, Bob Dog?
24:30Only the experts should throw it up in the air.
24:33Yeah, I'll say.
24:36Trolley, the pizza came back to us.
24:39Yeah, and it had a lesson attached to it, Trolley.
24:50Two, four, six, eight.
24:52Who do we appreciate?
24:54O-C-S.
24:57Mm-hmm.
24:57Did you ever say anything like that?
25:00Two, four, six, eight.
25:01Who do we appreciate?
25:02Then you can say any word you want.
25:05Sure.
25:05What about that pizza that went up and then stayed up and then came down?
25:13Well, that could happen just in the neighborhood of make-believe.
25:16But there are some things that go up in the air, stay up there, they have wings on them, and they carry people, and come down in another city.
25:30What are those things?
25:32Airplanes.
25:34Sure.
25:34There are some things that go up and stay up a while and then come down.
25:39But you can think of the things that go up and come down right away.
25:44Sure.
25:45I want to wash these off.
26:01I'll just let that stay there.
26:03Okay.
26:03I'll take this home and use it later.
26:18You know, I was just thinking I like to make up songs about things that I'm thinking about.
26:26A long time ago, I made up a song about trees.
26:34My dad loved trees.
26:37Oh, he planted many, many little trees like this.
26:41And then our whole family would just watch them grow and grow through the years.
26:47Something about trees that are just great.
26:49This is a song that you could learn very easily, because it just says the word tree over and over again.
26:59Tree, tree, tree.
27:03Tree, tree, tree.
27:06Tree, tree, tree.
27:10Tree, tree, tree.
27:11Tree, tree, tree, tree.
27:13Tree, tree, tree.
27:13We love you.
27:16Yes, we do.
27:19Yes, we do.
27:23We love you.
27:28When I think about you, I have a good feeling.
27:30Mm-hmm.
27:31Have more things to do tomorrow.
27:34It's such a good feeling to know you're alive.
27:38It's such a happy feeling, you're growing inside, and when you wake up ready to say,
27:46I think I'll make a snappy new day.
27:51It's such a good feeling, a very good feeling, the feeling you know,
27:58that I'll be back when the day is new, and I'll have more ideas for you.
28:04And you'll have things you'll want to talk about.
28:09I will, too.
28:11Be back tomorrow. Bye.
