Prairie Home Companion is awful but is still must-listen radio compared to the absolute festering shitpile that is Eklektikos with John Aielli. At least PHC doesn't involve the host forgetting that he queued up a particular song (playing for the fourth time today) and continuing to read random sections of found newspapers at five words a minute over the music. They both exist for the same reason that Peanuts is still in newspaper comic pages: old people write nasty letters threatening to stop sending money every time someone hints about getting rid of them.

It's that, only when it's felt by your grandmother when she's 90 and the older people in her retirement community act similarly.

Wow, your classic station sucks. I think I've heard Nelly once in the last couple years on my local station.

edrith posted:i wasn't allowed to listen to pop radio growing up, so i fed on a steady diet of prairie home companion. my favorite bit was the swedish-american lutheran couple who hated each other but didn't know how to express it. i remember once listening to an extended bit about garrison keillor taking a magical blue pill that made him more confident and made the neighbor ladies very happy. lake wobegon had an underground seedy side if you knew how to listen/were so loving bored listening to loving prairie home companion that you grabbed onto anything, anything at all, that could be construed as interesting. like i know the baseball team is called the whippets but i assumed that referred to whip-it parties and not dogs Lake Wobegon could stand to have Frank Booth as a resident.

Considering white people have started listening to radio proportionally less, and black and latino people have started listening proportionally more, I doubt it. And music is by far the most common thing for people to listen to on the radio. Conservative talk is a rather small category of listeners.

Combed Thunderclap posted:To this contentious debate, I add Keiller's latest op-ed on Trump. quote:When you came to Manhattan 40 years ago, you discovered that in entertainment, the press, politics, finance, everywhere you went, you ran into Jews, and they are not like you: Jews didn't go in for big yachts and a fleet of aircraft — they showed off by way of philanthropy or by raising brilliant offspring. They sympathized with the civil rights movement. In Queens, blacks were a threat to property values — they belonged in the Bronx, not down the street. To the Times, Queens is Cleveland. Bush league. You are Queens. If Trump actually read this it would really piss him off.

Alies won with his idea of fox news. Regan took his biggest internal critic H bush and made him vice president. Even though H bush called his economics Voodoo. Also are media will bend over to blow the GOP and do that truth is in the middle poo poo. So yeah they can come up with a new bag the media will let the pundits lie through their teeth, and they could just wait for some scandal or incident to happen to the dems and prey upon it.

So this "prairie home companion" is it a bit like the American version of The Archers? The archers is a 15 minute radio show on radio 4 every day that details the fairly usual lives of people in a farming community/ small market town in England. It is exactly as dull as it sounds.

S: um, for the last couple of years H: Not at any of the shows I've attended in the past couple of year S: We don't listen to the same hip hop dad.
