One of his closest friends near the end was Jimmy Carr, he loved comedians and comedy, every appearance of him in the Simpsons before his death is voiced by him.

He was also in a few episodes of Futurama and Family Guy

There's this amazing rendition of the Galaxy song with a brilliant ending with Brian Cox and Stephen Hawking, that came out right around the time of his passing, and it tears me up every time.

Didn't Hawking get caught going to Epstein island?

His name is noted on the guest list, although I think it’s likely that while anyone that visited should be treated with suspicion it’s likely that not every single person that did so is an abuser, gotta have some names to throw people off the scent.

Hawking may very well have been someone doing the heinous shit on that island but we can’t ever say for sure and even if he did we can’t exactly say his discoveries are bunk because of it and he’s dead so we couldn’t punish him for it anyways. If he did fuck him but I’m skeptical

Start with the frequent flyers. He likely invited people with the purpose of entrapping them with blackmail, so single trip visitors are not likely coconspirators.
