A Prairie Home Companion

Minnesota Public Radio

A Prairie Home Companion is a weekly two-hour broadcast from St. Paul. It is a low-key, entertaining variety show full of good folk humor and country music. Its folksiness, its genuinely funny comedy routines and its fast-paced, toe-tapping music have made the program a weekly highly for more than 100 non-commercial radio stations across the country. To Minnesota Public Radio a Peabody Award for A Prairie Home Companion, a nostalgic radio-variety gem.
