[@hootmcnoot1756]

Miss prairie home companion never be Another show like it. Incredible talent on that show. Top notch music.

[@bluejack644]

Used to listen to it on NPR every weekend along with Old Scratchy Records, and Car Talk with Click & Clack the Tappet Bros.

[@mirkhwand]

@@bluejack644 I LOOOOOVED Car Talk!!! And I used to listen to the Prairie Home Companion on the weekends, too. That was quality entertainment!

I truly miss a prairie home companion. Never be another show like it.

[@Desertvanlife]

I'm in the room with my passing mother Thanks for the years of enjoyment you gave my mom and I...... I'm 48 I feel like a kid again listing to the radio with my mom

[@jayraskin]

Thanks for 30 years of great radio and 10,000 laughs.

[@vikkinicholson5880]

In spite of that, a single voice can cause it to be silenced? Careful men, don't pat anyone on the back .....can be interpreted as.....???? so don't be too friendly.

[@Willhomes71]

I’m grateful that my dad introduced me to Keillor and the show in the 1980’s. From it I gained an appreciation of diverse music genres, politics, irony, humor, and the art of storytelling. I still love listening to the old shows that are available on the APHC website.

[@CalTxDude]

My late husband is the one who introduced me to Garrison Keillor's show. Every Sunday! The day always started with easy jazz and a great breakfast! And it always wound down listening to Mr. Keillor. Hearing his voice takes me back to our home and it warms me.

[@JeremySalucka]

Garrison, I've missed your voice and storytelling. So very glad to see and hear you again!!!

[@72Yonatan]

Garrison, you are the best thing ever out of Minnesota. Bless you for making us laugh at the world and ourselves.

[@zapper7525]

YES, Garrison is back!!!! Keep the News coming.

Well now you made me cry,it just so happens to be August 2023 when I’m watching this and my name is Monique, I too am thin with dark hair. Thank you, stay well, you’re treasure 🎁

[@caspence56]

Whenever I hear the news from Lake Wobegon, I feel like I'm back in my hometown and visiting my family and neighbors. Please don't ever leave us, Garrison. In these crazy times we live in, we need your humor and soothing voice to help us keep our sanity.

[@vikkinicholson5880]

then pray that he will not be attacked further.

[@michaelgawel5823]

Amen!

[@shilohnanny5422]

I listen to a Lake Wobegon story on my phone each night before I drift off to sleep. Soothing in this crazy world.

[@brendaneal-vey4971]

What absolute JOY to hear your voice telling the best stories!! THANK YOU & GOD BLESS!

[@thomasromano9321]

So glad you're back, Garrison!! Don't let anyone keep you down. Minnesota Public Radio was so unfair in condemning you! The one and only Lake Wobegon, YES!! I've seen Garrison Keillor onstage four times now. The last performance was at the Hult Center for the Performing Arts in Eugene, Oregon, where he was literally onstage for the whole show, never taking a break. That was about two weeks before the shit hit the fan about his alleged sexual abuse charges. I also used to listen to his "Writers Almanac" every day, enjoyed that program, too. I couldn't believe how quickly MPR threw him under the tracks without any real conviction, just discarded him like he was nothing. Shame on you, MPR!

[@constancemiller3753]

Great.....

[@Gods2ndFavoriteBassPlyr]

Yes, MPR absolutely stabbed him in the back. He gave them the world.. and they ran the entire thing into the ground.. and then tried to set him on fire. This man is Solid Gold, and undoubtedly, America's Storyteller.

[@thomasromano9321]

@@Gods2ndFavoriteBassPlyr I guess everyone has their favorite parts of the show. I especially remember "The Story of Bob, an artist." Hysterical.

[@gordonbrown5901]

Thank God you're back. Please don't stop again.

[@logancoryshares4040]

There's a certain peace and serenity when I hear him

[@philgaetano6926]

I just got it- Lake Woe Be Gone. ❤

[@richardmorganwrites]

Mr. Keillor, seeing you come out strong despite what the media put you through, on my end it was like watching a distant uncle be slandered and exonerated. I'm all smiles to see you back at giving the world kind and human entertainment. 1 Corinthians 3:12, 13

[@alexckelly1]

Thanks, Mr Keillor, for your witty show, stories so well told. It was so fun and revitalizing, perfect for Saturday afternoons.. (Watching this on my phone).. :) Cheers! 😀

[@bethanywaldron5541]

You made my night! Your humor is one of a kind and hearing your voice is like home.

[@MJ-nb1qn]

Not bad for a “tax and spend liberal” as you said a number of times. Love you Man. I started listening your first year on the radio. Hard to believe, the years roll on. Bless You GK!

[@robbchastain3036]

You're still in fine fiddle, Garrison--thanks for some news from Lake Wobegon! And the first time I ever heard you waxing poetic on the radio--it was early '79 in Northern California--I thought I had stumbled upon a trippy hippie show. It was late at night and you sounded like a free-form deejay and I was mesmerized. Then I dozed back off to sleep.

[@dianemacleod4229]

Wonderful to hear The News ! So happy to see this!

[@keeptrying5962]

We paid to sit in the very front row to see you in Sioux Falls a couple years ago. I was with (my husband) that beautiful Scandinavian man, very tall, your height. We absolutely loved it (not the song about aging progressive Democrats, we just waited politely, as it was YOUR show and we'd chosen to hear you). God bless and keep you and your family.

People who don't like each other standing jowl to cheek ....Indeed. I am a long-time admirer of your work. You are wonderfully gifted! You have the ability to make ordinary extraordinary with your BEAUTIFUL voice and ways. When you were under assault, I stood up for you in any way I could, (simply a listener I am). I continue to listen to you, despite being made aware, by reading your own words (though forgive me I can't recall precisely where) about people like me. You don't like us., we, the NON-LEFT. You said we don't read books (I collect old books, I collect short stories, even at least one you edited). I love to read. You said we don't make our own pasta (yes I do!). I bake our own bread, I garden, cook with fresh herbs from beside our house. You said all manner of ugly things about 'us', implying we are artless, ignorant trash. YET, here I am and likely will be, standing CHEEK TO JOWL with you, because I LIKE YOU.

JRR Tolkien sought to bridge the gap in English mythology with Lord of the Rings. Garrison Keillor’s achievement in capturing the Midwest mythos through the tender tapestry and character development of the humble Hobbits of Middle Minnesota is no less impressive.
