- Originally broadcast from the Fox Theatre in Atlanta, Georgia. Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder bring the bluegrass melodies and lightning-fast picking, and Christine DiGiallonardo joins us to sing a few duets with the host and add her voice to our acting company. Plus: that Royal Academy of Radio Actors, Tim Russell, Sue Scott, and Georgia's own Fred Newman; pianist and music director Rich Dworsky steers the house band (drummer Bernie Dresel, Larry Kohut on bass, Richard Kriehn on mandolin and fiddle, and Chris Siebold on guitar) through steamy Southern songs; and an update from Lake Wobegon.

I work in my garage every Sunday afternoon and never missed a show. I really really miss it. For NPR to erase the show is downright criminal - it's a national treasure.
You can find a library of archived shows on his website. It is a treasure trove for free, courtesy of GK.
My dad listened to these my entire growing up. I have a 32 cd set lol and im 36! Im the only person my age who loves GK
SAME HERE AND COULD NOT AGREE MORE!!! MISS THIS SHOW SO MUCH ITS UNREAL!
Right there with ya ! @@ctina2572
@@ctina2572im 41, i came across the show driving from altoona pa to wilmington delaware on sunday afternoons, i would catch the first hour on penn states pbs channel and then harrisburg's although they started an hour later. it made 3 hours of a 4 hour drive enjoyable. no one else in my family would listen to it, so most of the time i was by myself and that was fine with me 😂
Garrison Keillor is unparalleled.
I miss my Saturday nights with prairie home like olde times that just can't be recreated today
Today I was listening to Pokey Lefarge and it occured to me, ever since this show went off air the world has been going to hell
Thank heavens for TH-cam!
The world is a darker place without this show
My dad would play this on the radio while we drove around the backroads of the place I grew up, holds a very special place in my heart.
Gosh I miss this. Saw PHC live three times. Listened since 1986. He was treated very unfairly. We all need this again
I could have written this😊
I was there. I miss this show. I spent 40 years listening to it while I made dinner.
Nothing is like this anymore.
Making dinner on Saturday night, listening to the show....I used to sing “Tell Me Why” as a lullaby to my kids. Haven’t cottoned to the “Live From Here” show, though we love Chris Thile all the way back to his Nickel Creek days.
I was raised on it. It taught me to love cooking because it's so homey.
You’re vanishing. It’s already too late.
Do the dishes. Break another plate.
Live from Here is a worthy successor
A national treasure for certain...we really need and miss you Garrison!
Amen
That was silentsed by big brother
@@billyallmon5039 ''That was silenced by big brother..," and a mean-spirited ''Me Too" movement.
What a find !! ... I so miss this radio programme.
During the last few years during which the world has gone mad, l'd forgotten about Prairie Home Companion. Today, Garrison Keillor popped into my mind and this video cheered me, blotting out meanness and rumors of war.
Terrifically said. This show had a wholesomeness that may never be achieved again. Listening to it brings peace.
Thank you, thank you, for presenting this here. We will not see or hear the likes of this show again. If 10,000 years go by, never again.
When I was truck driving I never missed the show on NPR and what a magnificent show it was .,. Thank you Garrison
Listening to this show from my early childood to present (38) has been one of my best ways to unwind and forget about the day. My fondest memories of my dad driving me around in his old stick shift chevette after he got off work and drive around listening to repeats of the show on NPR. He did that all my life. Back ten years or so I was able to take him to a movie theater live casting one of Garrison’s shows. My dad was the stoic type so I never saw him laugh or cry. Sitting there watching him belly laugh at various parts of the show was magical. Never saw him so happy before or after. He passed in ‘19 so I have Mr. Garrison Keillor’s show to keep happy memories alive.
I really thought that powder milk biscuits and ahua hot sauce were real products
I miss this. America needs this kind of entertainment.
It's impossible not to listen to this show with a smile on my face, no matter what's going on in the world or in my life. Thanks for the years of joy delivered in 2 hour intervals.
This was one of my favorite shows on my local NPR station. I'm sad it gone.
APHC, Car Talk, and Wait! Wait! were always the highlights of my lazy at-home weekends
@@SchlubTheSecond i love Wait Wait and Snap Judgment as well. I listen to them during the week.
I miss Garrison Keillor hosting Prairie Home Companion. Nothing like it ever. Soothes the soul.
Greatest variety show EVER. We love you Garrison !!! ❤
I've forgotten how much I miss listening to this show on Saturday evenings😓..
Great show (love Ricky Scaggs!). Ever wonder how 3-word title Prairie Home Companion can calm one's busy soul and warm the heart
This was a treasure ... NPR do something that will bless many, bring back this show, it's an art form that creates unity, celebrates talent and draws on our imagination
So many Saturday nights standing in my kitchen, listening to my old familiar friends.
Superb! 🤩🤩😍🥰
I came across the show driving from my hometown of Altoona, PA back to Wilmington, DE on Sunday afternoons while trying to find something to listen to on the radio. Luckily WPSU would play it at 1, and when I was out of range for it, then I got into range for witf from harrisburg, which started playig it at 2, and I could listen to the whole show on my 4 hour drive home. My wife and I went to see it at the Town Hall in 2016. What a wonderful experience and I'm so happy I got to see it live, if only even once.. Thank-you GK for your whit, humor, storytelling and a wonderful way to make a 4 hour drive seem to go faster.
I miss you and this show!
God Bless this man that has a bright spot in my life for decades.
I miss this show! My kids loved listening to this show at dinner time on Saturday evening. Nothing ever came close to this kind of wholesome entertainment.
This is a pleasure. I miss the show.
So do I. Especially on Sat. And Sun. summer evenings with some iced tea and a fan blowing in my direction on my back porch. At least we can still find shows here.
I just stumbled onto this and believe the first 9 minutes are the best thing I've ever seen on the internet. God bless this country and its people.
Had you known this show before you saw this?
God bless that man and this show.
I only discovered this amazing show in 2014 ... a few years later it was gone. There's really nothing like it.
High art indeed! Radio at its best.
The true magic of radio. One of the greats too.
I listened to this when I was about 15 every sunday , that was 11 years ago thanks for all the good times
I feel ya. I remember the end of a new years broadcast oh prob 2014. At the end there was singing. I was in IN in my truck, away from home. I sang and cried with the audience.
I should have been at this show. Ricky Skags is awesome. And so are all the musicians and performers with Prairie Home Companion. ❤
The original "face made for radio"😁😁
A national treasure.
My late father absolutely loved GK and Prairie Home Companion. Every Saturday night he was tuned in. Great music too. My father loved Robin and Linda Williams who were regulars on the show. He was so irritated when GK and the show got canceled.
Me too.
I miss the show and radio program so much. It was the closest thing to a religious experience I’ve had. Such a wonderful combination of humor, whimsy, really good music, and feel-good stories. I wish there were a place on some streaming channel to watch these shows! I’d pay!
youtube
one thing about this is that these performers never had to work a day. it is never work when you love what you do. and it is even sweeter when others love what you do. Truly a slice of Americana that cannot be denied.
❤huge hole miss you guys xoxo icons
Garrison Keillor is The Greatest!!
I believe it was around 2009 that I went to see Garrison live in Bangor, Maine. I was sitting high up in the bleachers, but before the show got started he was revving up the audience and he climbed up the aisle. People were reaching out to shake hands, but when he took my hand, he held onto and gallantly bent over and kissed the top of my hand (or so it looked to the audience), it was such a special moment, thank you Garrison!!
I would spend Sunday morning listening with my parents as a kid .. I’m turning forty this year . My parents are gone now and I am trying to keep it going with my five year old son . Thankfully there is TH-cam because I can no longer find it on my radio 📻 ❤
I'm watching this now at almost 3 am with my 82 year old father.
He said he took my mother to a show a few years back.
I'm glad we can all share this.
My Dad and I shared many happy times attending PHC when they would come to Santa Barbara Bowl. Dad's been gone since 2015, and I treasure the PHC memories and especially the episode when my Dad's post was included in Posts to the Host. The world is colder without PHC.
Love this show
Best years of my life spending my Sundays with Garrison
Prairie Home Companion, and Paul Harvey were the radio shows that I enjoyed from youth to old fart.
Used to wash my car every week to this show❤ miss you thanks for the memories I get to visit again awesome, miss ya still ❤
I’m 66 I remember when I was small we did a lot of singing in school or youth groups.
I remember My Country Tis of Thee from grade school. Wish I could see him. Very emotional memories. Hard shoes to fill.
When I moved to Quebec from South Africa 30 years ago I asked a friend what the USA was like, one day he tuned in VPR and told me to listen to this show. He said this was America.
Love prairie home companion
He had the best show ever.
Thanks Garrison. So glad you are sharing these videos and . Each one reminds me of how much I miss your live broadcasts but like every bittersweet memory listening and watching these videos reminds me its better to have a bittersweet memory than none at all.
Saw him Saturday at Town Hall NYC had great band lovely show sang Christmas carols
That gal’s voice. Wowza. That last piece of hers. STRONG & impressive!
Here in the uK loved this show. Most of our radio and tv is preaattling djs and music tracks. This was unique and quite wonderful.
So wonderful. The singing, the coming together, clean humor, just wonderful
Fred Newman is a phenomenon! God blessed him with an extraordinary ability! ☑️💯👍🏼👏✝️🙏🏼❤️
That opening!!! Still can't believe this was cancelled. What a shame.
The opening was…. Well…. I’m speechless!! Okay, okay…. It was heartwarming!!!
He had a good to run, well over 40 yrs. MPR should've made sure it kept on
It is too much family values and morality for this heathen world.
Everything good must be destroyed, cancelled, and/or killed by the woke.
I don't think it was cancelled. He retired.
@@starchild108 he did and then MPR cut ties due to accusations of misconduct.
Just to add another, how I miss this show. My dad and I would stay in the car after arriving from somewhere and just listen to the monologue in the car, so as not to miss any of it.
Absolutely Love This Show... So Wonderful & Sharing Prairie Home Companion with My Grandchildren!!! Thank You for Posting This on TH-cam...
❤❤❤ love wobegon❤❤❤
❤used to listen to this gem of a show on NPR all the time, and as a French native, this is forever part of the American in me 😊🤗💜💫
Loved that intro! So patriotic, makes me so proud to be an American! May God forgive us of our sins, and bless and protect us.
This is some country ass bullshit. This isn’t patriotic for shit
I grew up listening to Garrison late at night on the BBC radio (Liverpool UK) Very peaceful , loved him and the show .
.We here in Lake Woebegon long for the days when Prairie Home Companion was funny
I AM so blessed to be listening to this one tonight as Georgia people are voting !
Thanks for the LAUGHTER too ! Love you Garrison Keillor ❤ to ❤
I haven't sang most of these songs in decades but the lyrics are still at the ready.
Garrison Keillor is a national treasure. NPR should be ashamed for cancelling the show.
He was purged for casting Patriotism and Christianity in a positive light. He was set up. The only astonishing thing thing was how long it took them to do it. I just they thought they could plug in someone else and still make money.
Did they “cancel” it? If so, I cannot think of a bigger mistake possible.
@59:00 Guy Noir starts - Don't get me wrong, you should check out the whole episode, but if you're just here for that segment, you're welcome. 🙂
A dark night.............
So happy to have located whole shows vs clips! It was our Saturday night dinner ritual. Tune out the world and listen to PHC while we grilled, sipped a beverage and enjoyed this entertaining show. We will be resurrecting that ritual soon albeit o’nan iOS device or tv.
Even got to see it live twice!
A national treasure.
Please upload more episodes!!! I love this show so much. I listen online but I would be overjoyed to watch them again! Thanks 😊
Many a driveway moment, thanks Garrison!
I usually listened to the live Saturday Night program while washing and detailing my cars before Sunday Morning Church. Because as we know cleaning is therapeutic and is next to Godliness according to Garrison. During my divorce I listened to The News From LakeWobegon 24/7 before the cancel culture took out even Garrison. My favorite episodes are when the dog came up through the ice hole with the walleye and then the cross country train trip after the mans dog died.
All the best from Haymarlet VA
How did he get canceled just comming back after like 6 years
Notice the "Me TOO" only canceled the good guys. Then faded away.
Saw him live in Las Vegas. One of the bigger thrills of my life, seeing my idol who gave me so many peaceful evenings since I was a lad.
My biggest regret is I can only give this video just one thumbs-up. 👍
The last 5 musical minutes were epic!!👍👍👍👍
Wow. From my small garage in the Rocky Mountains, I wished to see your show live.
I never did.
Yet it still resonates.
Same here
Same
i mean he came to Chatfield twice but ok
My love 💓 for PHC is so deep. Please restore it to our airways somehow. Godbless you Garrison Keillor & crew! ❤️
I really miss this show. I wish we could have it back. And the poetry show too.
Thank you for letting me see this wonderful program again. I have loved this show for so many years, and do not care for the new edition of this iconic program. Thank you again, I really needed this!!
50th Anniversary is touring. Yay!
Wonderful
Garrison Keillor channeled the true soul of American and each show invited us to step into it, as one country. He wove together goodness, heart warmth, love for humanity and all creation, uplifting humor, artistic beauty…it surely was a kind of religious experience….full of fun and laughter.
miss you Garrison!
phc alway brought me back to my small town beginings and when my son was dignosed with austism and mutism my soul gained solice in that "his world" had a lake wobegone and my childhood myerstown pa a gloriousness of the ordinous
Rise up children and sing!! Make a joyful noise!!
😮remind me trucking around america great show
I thought Bonnie Raitt's version couldnt be topped - I was wrong!!! GREAT job! Love your fluid voice....
Version of what song?
Thank you so much for posting. It was a great show, my family and I flew down to Atlanta to see you. It was a great trip and production.
Thank you for bringing my blood pressure down during such difficult times.
Hopefully these shows will finally be reposted, such a sad shame they ever disappeared - making a note to find and play one every Saturday
Thank you.
This is so wonderful. Thank you, Mr. Keillor.
Me too, wonderful memories, thank you
This is how it’s done.
Need for a common repertoire. Learn songs in schools, summer camp, in the home, or in church. Wherever and however. Group singing is the heart and soul to a country.
fabulous!
when i had to work 2nd shift, i turned their radio and worked, listen for 2 hrs and enjoyed
I’m 37. I embrace my old age. I embrace Americana. Tragic how problematic it got before I came home to my AARP brethren.
Miss this so bad!
