Thanks for sharing Steve -
When my wife watched the video of simultaneous booster landings she
exclaimed, "Oh Snap! No they didn't!!!"
(She was genuinely impressed, as was I)

Clad in SpaceX's new spacesuit <https://www.space.com/38132-elon-musk-spacex-spacesuit-crew-dragon-photo.html>, the dummy astronaut is casually drifting in space with his right hand on the steering wheel and left arm resting on the door. Along with great views of "Starman" and his $250K Tesla roadster, you can see some spectacular views of Earth in the webcast.
SpaceX has not yet said how long the live stream will last, but a recording of the webcast will probably be posted to SpaceX's YouTube page after it ends.

Agreed.
They thought it might have meant that they lost the video feed on center core. Probably lost the whole thing since nobody is talking.

Any word on the core section? I saw a tweet from someone that
said he “heard on an audio feed” that “…we lost the core…” but
was otherwise unsubstantiated. But seems that someone would have
said it was OK by now if it was.

The SpaceX Falcon Heavy launch has resumed countdown after a
few holds (upper-level winds in Florida). The new T-0 is
12:45 p.m. PST. This Falcon Heavy flight test is carrying a
cherry-red Tesla into orbit as its test payload. This
version of Falcon heavy is twice as heavy as any vehicle
today - 27 Falcon motors in just the booster! Possible live
