I spent the weekend in Fort Lauderdale in a low-rent hotel with many families with small children and numerous college kids who seemed confused, even alarmed, when I got on an elevator and said, “Good morning” to them, as I was brought up to do but that was back in the 20th century. Every time I crossed through the lobby I heard Christmas songs like “it’s lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you,” which strikes a Minnesotan as peculiar and then on Sunday I tested positive for COVID so I had other things to think about. A Prairie Home Companion is heard on close to 600 public radio stations across the U.S., with a weekly audience that tops 4.3 million listeners.

Music was a main feature of the program; the show was a significant outlet for American folk music of many genres, especially country, bluegrass, blues, and gospel, but it also had guest performers from a wide variety of other styles of music, including classical, opera, and music from a number of different countries. The country musician and former record company executive Chet Atkins appeared on the show many times, as did singer-songwriters Mark Knopfler and Jeff Lang. Folk/gospel duo Robin and Linda Williams had been regular guests since 1976, and often join Keillor and another female performer, often Jearlyn Steele, to form "The Hopeful Gospel Quartet". Peter Ostroushko, Greg Brown, Jean Redpath, and Prudence Johnson, among others, were recurring guests on the program between 1974 and 1987. The Wailin' Jennys and Andra Suchy were also recurring guests, and when the show travelled, Keillor generally featured local musicians and acts. After researching the Grand Ole Opry for an article, Keillor became interested in doing a variety show on the radio.

At the beginning of the June 5, 2004, show , Keillor announced that former U.S. A member of the audience hooted and cheered loudly, but Keillor, a staunch Democrat, gave the Republican Reagan a warm tribute in the form of a gospel song. Similarly, in a 2002 show airing the weekend after the death of Senator Paul Wellstone, Keillor changed the format of the show, starting it off with Wellstone's favorite segment, Guy Noir, skipping even the show's theme song.

As for me, I got to sing duets with Heather, which I love to do and I hit some beautiful high harmony notes on “O Little Town of Bethlehem” and Greg Brown’s song “Early,” notes that I didn’t have the day before in rehearsal. A prairie home companion / good jokes. Following is our collection of funny prairie jokes. Pretty Good Jokes by Garrison Keillor, Audio CD Barnes & Noble® from termite jumps up on the bar and asks, where is the bar tender? A penguin walked into a bar and said, "Has my father been in here today?" The bartender said, "I don't know, what does he look like?" The penguin said, "He was wearing a tuxedo." Regular musicians in Guy's All-Star Shoe Band include Richard Dworsky, a composer who appeared weekly as pianist, bandleader, and music director, Gary Raynor on bass and bass guitar, Peter Johnson on percussion, Jevetta Steele on vocals, and Andy Stein on violin, tenor and bass saxophones, and vocals.

Take your time to read those puns and riddles where you ask a question with answers, or where the setup is the punchline. They come back a little later and say the same thing, "Book, book, book." So she gives them three more books. They come back at four o'clock, and say, "Book, book, book." She gives the books to them but she decides to follow them. And she follows them down to a pond where they are tossing the books to a frog who looks at the books and says, "Reddit, reddit, reddit."

Lena sent Ole to a sex therapist and Ole came home and went out to the barn and he was singing a love song to his John Deere because the therapist said, "You've got to do something sexy to attract her." There was a girl so thin that when she swallowed an olive, four guys left town. If the history of the automobile were like the history of the computer, a Rolls-Royce today would cost $100,nit would get a million miles to the gallon, and every few months, for no reason, it would run into a tree. An orchestra is rehearsing a piece in which the tuba has a solo after 84 bars rest. At the point where the tuba should start the solo, nothing happens.

My legacy is that I sang gospel songs and told immature jokes on public radio and thereby took up arms against pretense. “There was a young man of Madras” and “How Great Thou Art,” I love them both dearly. It horrified thousands of managers and vice presidents but I got away with it.

I was sent out to purchase a tree and I brought home a cripple. I had to go out and buy a special orthopedic tree stand with lead weights so it won’t fall over. My beloved tries to reassure me that the tree is “just fine,” that Christmas is about spirit, not décor. Other men went tree shopping two weeks ago when the first loads had arrived in New York from Quebec and they got dibs on magnificent ten-footers and negotiated the price down to $50. I am inept at negotiation and I paid full price for this embarrassment.

When the Shoe Band had a horn section, Keillor referred to them as the Shoe Horns. The jingle is usually sung after a bombastic, sound-effect-enhanced tale of woe, and is immediately followed by Keillor asking, "Wouldn't this be a great time for a piece of rhubarb pie? Yes, nothing gets the taste of shame and humiliation out of your mouth quite like Bebop-A-Reebop Rhubarb Pie." The show creates advertisements for fictional products, performed in the style of live old-time radio commercials.

More puns, one-liners, light bulb jokes, knock-knock jokes, and third-grader jokes (have you heard the one about Elvis Parsley?). More religion jokes, political jokes, lawyer jokes, blonde jokes, and jokes in questionable taste (Why did the urologist lose his license? He got in trouble with his peers). More jokes about chickens, relationships, and senior moments (The nice thing about Alzheimer's is you can enjoy the same jokes again and again). What do you get when you cross a sweet potato and a jazz musician? We collected only funny prairie home companion jokes around the web.

In 1989, Keillor returned to radio with The American Radio Company of the Air (renamed Garrison Keillor's American Radio Company in its second season), broadcast originally from the Brooklyn Academy of Music. The new program featured a broadly similar format to A Prairie Home Companion, with sketches and musical guests reflecting a more New York sensibility, rather than the country and folk music predominant in APHC. Also, while Keillor sang and delivered a regular monologue on American Radio Company, Lake Wobegon was initially downplayed, as he felt it was "cruel" to talk to a Brooklyn audience about life in a small town. During this period, Keillor revived the full APHC format only for "annual farewell performances." In the fall of 1992, Keillor returned to the Fitzgerald Theater with ARC for the majority of the season, with Lake Wobegon and other APHC elements gradually but unmistakably returning to prominence. I come to Thanksgiving in a cheerful mood, counting the blessings, starting with the new pig valve Dr. Dearani’s team sewed into my heart three months ago, which enables me to type this sentence and saves some poor soul from eulogizing me and getting it all wrong.

Minnesota used to produce computers and semiconductors but then Apple and Microsoft took the business away, and now our state produces 45 million turkeys a year, which means that in early October, there is a possibility that the birds could rise up and take over. Aversion to misery is one aspect of aging and another is feeling oppressed by material possessions. Too many books, pictures, shirts, souvenirs, gadgets, and gizmos. I could go through my closet and dispose of two-thirds of it. All I need are some jeans, black T-shirts, a few white shirts, and about six suits.

A Chihuahua, a Doberman and a Bulldog are in a bar having a drink when a great-looking female Collie comes up to them and says, "Whoever can say liver and cheese in a sentence can have me." So Jesus walks into a bar and says, "Give me a wine glass and fill it with water." How many New Yorkers does it take to screw in a light bulb?

Keillor and the ensemble performed comedy skits. Notable skits and characters often recur, such as the satirical "Guy Noir, Private Eye", which parodied film noir and radio dramas. Guy Noir's popularity was such that the first few notes of the theme or the first lines of the announcer's introduction ("A dark night in a city that knows how to keep its secrets ...") often drew applause and cheers from the audience. Also regularly featured were the adventures of Dusty and Lefty, "The Lives of the Cowboys". A Prairie Home Companion began national distribution in May 1980.

“The free, creative, loving people who shine so brightly in my memory of studios and coffee shops have become models for a huge section of the population. If they in turn can just stay alive in the face of power and terror, they may become the decisive section.” –Kenneth Rexroth, born on this day in 1905. I stood in line at a coffee shop that smelled of fresh pine boughs and the tall dark-haired woman ahead of me ordered a venti mocha latte with 2%, and the smell of chocolate and pine and then an orange she bought and started to peel it and that was enough. Oranges were essential to our Christmases.

One advantage for us Christians of living in New York is that we’re a small minority just like in early A.D. Living among Romans and Turks so we can’t lord it over people. If schools avoid using the word “Christmas,” we understand. Children walk past, cursing like truckers. In places where Christians form a powerful majority, they can bully and persecute with great enthusiasm, even though our Savior instructed us in kindness and charity.

They all screamed and went down to the deep end where the water was up to their necks.nOne of the women shouted, "We're not coming out until you leave!" The old man said, "I didn't come down here to watch you ladies swim naked. I came here to feed the alligator." The only time you hear "Jesus Christ" in a Unitarian church is when someone falls down the stairs. I was on the 18th green yesterday and I hooked the ball onto the highway right through the window of a school bus which swerved into a ditch and burst into flames. Obama and Jintao walk into a bar; A patron says to the bartender "That's Barack! Who's with him?" Bartender replies "Yes." The only way I can communicate with my kids is by using Facebook.

A woman went to a lemon grove and the foreman thought she was much too qualified. The foreman said, "Do you even have any experience picking lemons?" She said, "Yes, I've been divorced three times." A man was stopped by the police around 2 a.m. And asked where he was going at this time of night. He said, "I am going to a lecture about alcohol abuse. The officer said, "Really? Who is giving that lecture at this time of night?

The sound effects artists on the show, Tom Keith and Fred Newman, primarily used mouth sounds for their effects, supplemented by props. Keith engineered the first two seasons of the show and then joined the cast, working until he retired in 2008. Newman took over full-time after Keith left the show. Barack Obama recorded a telephone call into the show, which ran on the Saturday broadcast, and Keillor performed his last "Lives of the Cowboys" sketch as regular host, with regulars Scott, Russell, and Newman, and including a series of duets with the guests Masse, O'Donovan, Jarosz, DiGiallonardo, and Watkins.

The show went off the air in 1987, with a "final performance" on June 13, and Keillor married and spent some time abroad during the following two years. For a brief time, the show was replaced—both on the air and in the World Theater—by Good Evening, hosted by Noah Adams, a live variety show designed by ex-Prairie Home and All Things Considered staffers to retain the audience Keillor had cultivated over the years. However, many stations opted instead to continue APHC repeats in its traditional Saturday time slot. The Fifth Edition of the perennially popular Pretty Good Joke Book is everything the first four were and more.

Mark Benninghofer joined the cast as a substitute actor for a brief time after Russell broke his ankle in February 2009, forcing him to take a month of medical leave. Erica Rhodes had been an occasional guest on the show, beginning in 1996 when she was 10 years old. Serena Brook joined the cast in October 2016 when Chris Thile became host.

Actress Sue Scott, Tim Russell , and sound-effects wizard Tom Keith will be on hand, along with the Guy's All-Star Shoe Band, led by pianist Richard Dworsky. And as always, we'll catch up on the news from Lake Wobegon during Keillor's signature monologue. The following two jokes are by the comedian Emo Philips. So a dog went into a bar and said, "Hey, look at me, a talking dog. How about a drink for a talking dog?" The bartender said, "Sure. The toilet's down the hall, first door to the right. Ole heard voices from down in his pond and he went to check and found a bunch of young women skinny-dipping there.

Because National Public Radio rejected the show due to its president Frank Mankiewicz perceiving the show as too expensive and insulting towards small towns, the show was initially distributed through a public radio satellite system that had been completed by June 1980 and allowed NPR member stations to distribute programs outside the NPR network. In 1983, Minnesota Public Radio president William Kling started a new company to distribute A Prairie Home Companion called American Public Radio, which would later be renamed Public Radio International in 1994. It all started back in 1996, when A Prairie Home Companion fans laughed themselves silly during the first Joke Show.

The guy says, "I just got out of prison for killing my wife. Cut her up with an ax." The woman says, "Oh, so you're single." So there was the robber who broke into the public radio station and stole a hundred thousand dollars worth of pledges. The film, which makes no reference to Lake Wobegon, is of feature length, with its financing provided by GreeneStreet Films, River Road Entertainment, and local Minnesota sources. In addition, Meryl Streep was nominated for an International Press Academy-Satellite Awards for Best Supporting Actress , and won the National Society of Film Critics Awards for the same category. While the July 2 Hollywood Bowl performance was the last regular episode of A Prairie Home Companion, Garrison Keillor also hosted a final live performance titled "The Minnesota Show" at the Minnesota State Fair on September 2, 2016, including the last-ever "Guy Noir" and "News from Lake Wobegon" segments. Talking about sociology did not seem like the way to begin.

The show acknowledges its actual underwriters at the beginning, end, and middle of the show. This article is about the historic radio show hosted by Garrison Keillor. For the later radio show hosted by Chris Thile, see Live from Here. For the film, see A Prairie Home Companion .

Thile's band Punch Brothers performed on the February 7 show. Thile was named permanent host of the show in late June 2015, and took over as permanent host on October 15, 2016. As a Minnesotan, I’m aware that my state is the No. 1 producer of turkeys, an ugly ill-tempered bird with a sharp beak and a single-digit IQ and no redeeming qualities except the meat.
