Podcast 27 — That’s why I’ve adopted a new habit of complimenting people for goodness.I’m at the age when you see the insides of more than your share of health clinics and some are like walking into a meat warehouse but when I walked into New York Presbyterian the other day and then the Hospital for Special Surgery, I was struck by the extraordinary kindness of everyone — even the security woman welcomed me like a friend and the receptionists and the guide who took me back to an examining room and the tech who did the exam — it really knocked me out, me a Midwesterner, this being New York — and I found Lillian the supervisor and told her what a wonderful place this is: “Most people walking in here are having a bad week and the kindness and good manners of this place mean So Much. Thank you.” Garrison KeillorJason Keillor, EngineerJason Keillor, Original MusicYou’re on the free list for Garrison Keillor and Friends newsletter and Garrison Keillor’s Podcast.
