It's kind of a nice change for something different to listen to!

Many of his shows are archived at: prairiehome.publicradio.org/

That show is the best! A great break from the inane box (T.V.) I also like Baxter Black the cowboy poet, he is a frequent storyteller on a lot of NPR stations. I just bought one of his CD's but haven't had time to sit back and listen yet.

I think I'll tune into that instead of Dick Clark.

Well, it's hosted by a guy who is an old fashioned storyteller. They do a 2 hr. radio show each week complete with a real live sound effects guy. It's been on the air for a bit over 30 yrs. so they have built up a lot of running jokes. There are skits with actors and lots of music. Various folk, blues, jazz, and stuff with no catagory at all. It's real old fashioned and kinda hokey I guess but I've been listening for around 20 years so I guess I'm hooked! It's a show you might like!
