It’s a rainy Sunday here on the East Coast.

There’s no better weather than this to reach back in time, to the 50s and 60s, to highlight the one man everyone turned to for laughter and spirit-lifting.

This clever, funny, piano-playing satirist-turned-mathematician recently put all his music into the public domain so everyone can use it.

They don’t make men like this anymore.

Please enjoy listening to the songs I grew up with (thanks, dad!) and listen to when I need a jolt of intellectually stimulating wordplay.

Do you know who I’m talking about?
