  • Mister Rogers Stamp Returns, Whale-Spotting AI, ALS Drug Progress, Golf Ball Pyramid Record

    Mister Rogers Stamp Returns, Whale-Spotting AI, ALS Drug Progress, Golf Ball Pyramid Record
    2026/06/21

    Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: the USPS is reissuing the 2018 Mister Rogers Neighborhood stamp after it won an encore contest by over 40,000 votes, returning as a Forever stamp with souvenir sheets. In San Francisco Bay, an AI detection system called Whale Spotter uses thermal cameras to spot whales day and night and alert ships to slow down, addressing a rise in gray whale deaths, many from ship strikes. A JAMA study reports tofersen (Qalsody) slowed and sometimes reversed symptoms in a specific form of ALS, with over 20% showing improved strength and function after three years, including a patient who moved from wheelchair use to a cane. In Texas, volunteers set a world record by stacking 19,019 golf balls into a pyramid without adhesives. In Wisconsin, a driver ignored road-closed barricades and drove into wet concrete, prompting a safety reminder.
