Nighttime is the Right Time December 5, 2009 This week on A Prairie Home Companion, we're up after dark and not slowing down in the second weekend of our annual stint at The Town Hall. Join us as we get our blood pumping to the Bluegrass movements of the Punch Brothers, while Heather Masse's smooth stylings stimulate like a hot cup of street cart coffee. The Klezmatics will also be joining us and keeping the pace are The Guy's All-Star Shoe Band and The Royal Academy of Radio Actors: Tim Russell, Sue Scott, and sound effects man Mr. Fred Newman. None of the big city excitement can compare to the News From Lake Wobegon — with winter just setting in and Christmas around the corner, things can get a little unpredictable. Tune in Saturday and be a part of the raucous live broadcast from The Town Hall in New York City.

the latest and greatest from the joke machine I was exercising my Labrador Retreiver at a pet park when I was approached by a very small boy. He asked "What's his name? I calmly replied "Her name is Dakota". To which the boy replied "North or South"? This joke was sent in by Jeff L., of Moore, OK. Thanks Jeff! |
