Garrison Keillor on Humor
“My family was shocked when I came home with a volume of Hemingway. There was a price to be paid for being interested in fiction.” - Garrison Keillor in 1994.

A Prairie Home Companion
Garrison Keillor hosted the A Prairie Home Companion radio show for well over forty years, but has reached the end of the line. He has broadcast another of his final shows, this time from the Hollywood Bowl.
A Prairie Home Companion became a movie by Robert Altman in 2006. The film is a personal favourite of mine, a so-called 'guilty pleasure.'
Here's an extract from the final show. With a little help from Bob Dylan, John Wayne, Humphrey Bogart, and friends.
