RON PAUL IS RUNNING IN THE TOP 3 AS A FRONT RUNNER IN ALL MAJOR POLLS .. SUPPORT HIM AT THE POLLS! DONATE TO THE CAMPAIGN! HE HAS MORE DONATIONS FROM ACTIVE DUTY TROOPS THAN ANY OTHER CANDIDATE, THE PRESIDENT INCLUDED!
I may not agree with some of Gerrison Keillor's views but everyone is entitled to their opinion including him. In any case, I happen to think that the show is so much fun to listen to and when they start singing, it is like ear candy!
I used to listen to this show every week. It was great. Then I finally got tired of the lame remarks about George W. Bush and the sheeple moonbats finding it just so funny. Garrison Keillor ought to try running the country some time. He is a jerk and a half.
This guy has one of the best singing voices for a male I've ever heard. Every goddamn time I listen to that show one of his songs ALWAYS gets me to tear up. I have heard on the show that he is going to retire and a young girl will replace him who can't sing! Say it isn't so!
I guess I'm related to this guy, but I don't know how. My last name is Freeby, if anyone knows how to look up his family tree, please let me know. I'd be interested to find out.
'Well, it's been a quiet week in Lake Wobegon,' and the crowd goes bananas, as well they should. Garrison Keillor is the storyteller of our time. Toni Morrison is a very close 2nd, but this man is the definitive storyteller. Thanks to him for all the stories and memories. :)
I don't necessarily agree with Mr. Keillor's politics, but I can sit for hours and just listen to his commentaries and stories. His voice just puts you in a comfort zone and you can let your imagination go.
HA! The same archaic computer featured behind him is the same that i use...got a giggle out of that considering i'm a poor college freshman who can't afford a fancy one.

garrison keilor sucks!!!! he is a real minnesotan he very much mourns for his long, long, ago boyhood in anoka,minnesota the ugliest town in that horrible state. uff dah! air ya tewky? I'll say you are!!!!!! if you like garrison keilor
You've got Garrison Keillor, one of America's most thoughtful social commentators, in front of you and these are the two questions you ask: "Are you going to be on TV?" and "What do you do on the internet?"
There IS something very special about radio format. TV just doesn't have it. On radio, you have to come up with your OWN pictures, that end up in your head, by your own creative imaging, that ALL people have, by nature. TV tells you what to think. Radio doesn't do that as much. I think radio shows are better than television, in that way. By the way, I am only 43, and I am not 102 yrs. old. Just my own observation, folks.
There are lots of Scaninavian-americans in the Mid west. Compared to Germany..
Sweden is even more developed than Germany. I had my Civilian engineer examina at The Chalmer University in Gothenburgh considered being among top three within Computing- cellphone communication. Ericsson and NOKIA are linked to it.
G.K. is a true legend. If you appreciate excellent prose and witty comedy then hunt down previous broadcasts where he starts off with "It's been a quite week in Lake Wobegon my home town...out on the edge of the prairie" Sublime.
Long may Google and You Tube bring this kind of genius to a wider audience.
I was born and raised in North Dakota. I wrote for the St. Paul Pioneer Press, in Minnesota, after I graduated from UND. I am a grateful hook up, every single Saturday night to the radio show, Prairie Home Companion. Check me out on youtube. MerryKenMusic. I am a singer/songwriter.

He didnt make in television, not because his socks don't come up high enough, but because he mumbles toward the ground instead of keeping eye contact with the interviewer.

I've also been listening for him for a while. This guy is extremely entertaining. All of you who said quote" Keillor is a bowl of soggy corn flakes and warm milk" and put downs like him you haven't been listening to him weekly.
I have travelled a year all over US and my opinion is that Minnesotan girls are among the most beautiful you have there. I saw mostly blue eyed blonds with lovely complexion. Your description fits women from my country Libya. I never found any Arabic women in Minnesota. You must tell me where this hidden Arabic population live.

Garrison Keillor is a National Treasure, a genius, that keeps so many of us hopeful about the future and life in general. I have been a listener for so long that I can't remember when it all started. For fantasy, fun, or profit, I don't care, keep it going, And, God Bless!
From a movie review of A Prairie Home Companion: "Catastrophically, [director Robert] Altman gives centre-stage prominence to Garrison Keillor... an amateur performance if ever there was one. Keillor has a face for radio, a body for radio, an existence for radio. On screen, he radiates anti-charisma. Keillor is always shambling and distracted: qualities which are never in the smallest degree interesting or endearing ... He delivers the lines as if he is talking in his sleep." Hah!
I have been following his art for about a decade now, but I've never seen him live, much less on any pictures... I know it's odd, but this is the first time I saw him ... here on youtube. And he has the kind expression that matches his personality and his wits.
Another thought, the music and some of the skits on his show I really love... it's just something... a gut feeling... about Keillor that makes me think he could really care less about it... it's all just show business and cash to him. Maybe I am wrong but he szeems to market and sell something I hold dear and true - and I do believe this rich, sated city showman is absolutely clueless as to the blue collar soul and spirit that made the music he sells. Why this bothers me - I don't know.
Garry Keillor waters down Appalachian and Celt music to sell to the city masses. He's a liberal who sells the music of traditionally very conservative, rural, blue collar Christian Americans - and city boy Gary does it all for the love of money. I love and play the music - but this guy is just a showman that has no link to it other than cash. I was a paratrooper and I am now a miner - in Appalachian country. I also drink and play trad folk and bluegrass. I guess that makes me a hillbilly.
I had the good fortune to see Keillor's show this weekend in Cincinnati. Just fantastic! The skits were funny and transitions seamless, the music touching and skillfully played.
The most amazing aspect of this show though is longevity. Two hours of fresh material nearly EVERY WEEK FOR DECADES is unparalleled.
in this season of renewal, may the LITTLE BABY JESUS, the infant of prague grant garrison keillor, heaven on earth and in the hereafter, and a golden throat to match is golden heart, mind and spirit! amen.
In case you read this,Mr Keillor, I'd like you to know that a 40-year- old Londoner thinks your storytelling is something magnificent: life- affirming,funny and profound. And I was delighted by your support for the similarly gifted skinny black guy. You are two of my favourite Americans!

you should also know that minnesota women are big fat bear like beach balls with legs, fond of fat sweatshirts and flip flops , they dont shave their legs or underarms, use deodorant or bathe much either, love multiple tatoos , nose and ear hair, and thats their good habits.
Ditto from a 21-year-old American. I didn't quite get it when my parents would listen to you on Sunday car trips, but I found your unique voice immensely comforting, then as now. And also, just like my neighbor across the puddle...OBAMA 08 :)
when garrison keillor sings, RNC protestors, hooligans and vandals rush to a Brooks Brothers Store for Men and get fitted for 3 piece suits, button down white shirts, black wingtips and pin dot navy blue ties. then repare to a the union league club for scotch highballs and prime rib, as they discuss the dow jones and S&P outlook. Later they join the mormon tabernacle choir in singing the star spangled banner in advance of john mccain's acceptance speech.
when garrison sings, DYKES ON BYKES are beguiled and seduced BY KIKES ON BIKES and convert to an all KOSHER lifestyle of bingeing on MOGEN DAVID AND MANISCHEVITZ with nova lox bagles and bialys, latkes n'sour cream and borscht i'm sure. then they weekend scramble to BERGDORF GOODMAN'S, SAKS 5TH AVE AND BLOOMIES, for jimmy choo and manolo's and coach all on final markdown. then pull an all niter listening to michael feinstein and linda eder singing the gerschwinn showtoonz songbook, SHALOM!
Its funny that the commentator asks that question because in a way its a show very similar to Prarie Home Companion known as the Red Green Show also Garrison Keillor said that comercial television had gone in a different directiona and it might of been possible a twenty years ago but not anymore well there was a show in the 90's also remotly similar to Prarie Home Home Improvement.

Screw Garrison Keillor. This is the guy who writes in the intro to one of his books that there is more to life than reading, and people should get out and do other things. I hate when media manipulators make all the money they need, and then start telling people not to read books any more. I am sure many aspiring and first time authors would not be impressed with his remarks...
What are you talking about? It's real simple. After achieving success as a writer, and gathering an audience, don't go telling people to stop buying books. There are OTHER writers out there, you know. It's like Glenn Beck telling viewers to turn off their TVs for a year. Now that he's got the fat paycheck and made his money off TV, that's ridiculous...
I don't know which book you're referring to, but saying there is more to life than books means just that. It's a kind of funny, self-deprecating nudge at the reader of the author's own book. If you listen to Keillor's show, he is a big proponent of reading, and he still writes and teaches writing. Also, since you clearly aren't that familiar with him and didn't watch the video, he's famous for radio, not television.
Oh I get it, everything the "celebrity" does is good and positive, right? If the famous "celebrity" said it then it must be funny and just self-deprecating. Everything the "celebrity" says and does can be easily explained, as long as you allow yourself to turn into a celebrity whore. There's no point talking with celebrity ass-kissers like you who have been drinking the koolaid too long...
You talk about Garrison Keillor as if he were indistinguishable from Paris Hilton. He's well-known quite simply because he's a good writer and does a radio show that no one else does anymore. He's not a cult leader; I imagine it would be very hard to start a cult through public radio.
His comment is funny because it's funny.
I don't know any famous people and can therefore never kiss their ass.
And to illuminate you further, no one is well-known just because they are a good writer. People get "promoted" and "marketed." Even those with do-goody NPR personas like Keillor and Fulghum.
Check out Keillor on youtube endorsing Obama and influencing your vote. What's that all about?
It's only when you admit that you've been drinking the koolaid that you will see the light.... Keillor is just another "media star" abusing that big soap box.
There are several different reasons people get famous, talent is one of them. Maybe that makes you feel inadequate but deal with it.
I was a supporter of Obama before I saw Keillor's endorsement. Celebrity endorsements have different causes & varying degrees of efficacy.
Based on your last comment, I'm going to assume you're being ridiculous on purpose to incite some kind of linguistic violence, so I'm just going to end this ridiculous debate with I'm right & you're wrong, so :-p
In the introduction to The Book of Guys, he lectures about how reading is a solitary and sedentary pastime, and how people should do other things blah blah blah.
I agree, he also sounds like a child molester!!! (Keillor's voice - It was a quiet week in Lake Wobegon, little Joey Johansonn came over to my house and I said to him, uh hi little boy, do you like some candy, yes candy its in my pocket, dont ya know its good for ya, go ahead take some from my pocket, ohhhhhhhh yeeees thats it, grab lots of it, deeper, a little to the left, OHHHHHHHHHH!"
Keillor was partially right about Wikipedia. What sucks about Wikipedia is that now in virtually any t.v. show, characters will suddenly start making references to obcure topics/subjects, where it's all too bloody evident that it was the writer pillaging Wikipedia.
Wiki/google is turning out to be a bit of a writer's crutch.
He is hilarious I got his autograph last night after the performance at the cast party and sat next to fim he is really nice and funny. BTW I am so glad my cuz' alyson got 4th!
for the record, keillor's humor gave me smiles in times of great loss and pain. i love the show in all its forms, even tho his singing produces unnatural acts and enigmatic metaphysical paradoxical phenomenae. life would be sadder without him. the world of humor has lost rush and imus, we still have lewis black and garrison keillor, and we are grateful!
when garrison keillor sings, RUSH LIMBAUGH and DON IMUS dream of broadway careers singing showtoonz from GYPSY and HELLO DOLLY,,,GEORGE BUSH dreams of speaking ENGLISH and ALAN GREENSPAN dreams of living in POLAND, working as a french maid.

You need your appreciation for the radio arts spoonfed to you. If this guy is so boring then you tell me why his show are sold out practically everywhere they perform. This man has been on the radio long before you were ever thought of so give the man credit where credit is due.

He's truly a terrible person.

I have been following his art for about a decade now, but I've never seen him live, much less on any pictures... I know it's odd, but this is the first time I saw him ... here on youtube. And he has the kind expression that matches his personality and his wits.

Yet another thought... no matter what I think of Garry, if it weren't for his show the music I love wouldn't be on the radio.
feurzug 3 years ago
Another thought, the music and some of the skits on his show I really love... it's just something... a gut feeling... about Keillor that makes me think he could really care less about it... it's all just show business and cash to him. Maybe I am wrong but he szeems to market and sell something I hold dear and true - and I do believe this rich, sated city showman is absolutely clueless as to the blue collar soul and spirit that made the music he sells. Why this bothers me - I don't know.
feurzug 3 years ago
Garry Keillor waters down Appalachian and Celt music to sell to the city masses. He's a liberal who sells the music of traditionally very conservative, rural, blue collar Christian Americans - and city boy Gary does it all for the love of money. I love and play the music - but this guy is just a showman that has no link to it other than cash. I was a paratrooper and I am now a miner - in Appalachian country. I also drink and play trad folk and bluegrass. I guess that makes me a hillbilly.

I had the good fortune to see Keillor's show this weekend in Cincinnati. Just fantastic! The skits were funny and transitions seamless, the music touching and skillfully played.
The most amazing aspect of this show though is longevity. Two hours of fresh material nearly EVERY WEEK FOR DECADES is unparalleled.

In case you read this,Mr Keillor, I'd like you to know that a 40-year- old Londoner thinks your storytelling is something magnificent: life- affirming,funny and profound. And I was delighted by your support for the similarly gifted skinny black guy. You are two of my favourite Americans!

you should also know that minnesota women are big fat bear like beach balls with legs, fond of fat sweatshirts and flip flops , they dont shave their legs or underarms, use deodorant or bathe much either, love multiple tatoos , nose and ear hair, and thats their good habits.

when garrison keillor sings, RNC protestors, hooligans and vandals rush to a Brooks Brothers Store for Men and get fitted for 3 piece suits, button down white shirts, black wingtips and pin dot navy blue ties. then repare to a the union league club for scotch highballs and prime rib, as they discuss the dow jones and S&P outlook. Later they join the mormon tabernacle choir in singing the star spangled banner in advance of john mccain's acceptance speech.

Its funny that the commentator asks that question because in a way its a show very similar to Prarie Home Companion known as the Red Green Show also Garrison Keillor said that comercial television had gone in a different directiona and it might of been possible a twenty years ago but not anymore well there was a show in the 90's also remotly similar to Prarie Home Home Improvement.

Screw Garrison Keillor. This is the guy who writes in the intro to one of his books that there is more to life than reading, and people should get out and do other things. I hate when media manipulators make all the money they need, and then start telling people not to read books any more. I am sure many aspiring and first time authors would not be impressed with his remarks...
bloggerjoe 3 years ago
For a writer, your comment is incomprehensible.
Maggie028 3 years ago
What are you talking about? It's real simple. After achieving success as a writer, and gathering an audience, don't go telling people to stop buying books. There are OTHER writers out there, you know. It's like Glenn Beck telling viewers to turn off their TVs for a year. Now that he's got the fat paycheck and made his money off TV, that's ridiculous...
bloggerjoe 3 years ago
I don't know which book you're referring to, but saying there is more to life than books means just that. It's a kind of funny, self-deprecating nudge at the reader of the author's own book. If you listen to Keillor's show, he is a big proponent of reading, and he still writes and teaches writing. Also, since you clearly aren't that familiar with him and didn't watch the video, he's famous for radio, not television.
Maggie028 3 years ago
Oh I get it, everything the "celebrity" does is good and positive, right? If the famous "celebrity" said it then it must be funny and just self-deprecating. Everything the "celebrity" says and does can be easily explained, as long as you allow yourself to turn into a celebrity whore. There's no point talking with celebrity ass-kissers like you who have been drinking the koolaid too long...
bloggerjoe 3 years ago
You talk about Garrison Keillor as if he were indistinguishable from Paris Hilton. He's well-known quite simply because he's a good writer and does a radio show that no one else does anymore. He's not a cult leader; I imagine it would be very hard to start a cult through public radio.
His comment is funny because it's funny.
I don't know any famous people and can therefore never kiss their ass.
Maggie028 3 years ago
Everything I have said about Keillor is true.
And to illuminate you further, no one is well-known just because they are a good writer. People get "promoted" and "marketed." Even those with do-goody NPR personas like Keillor and Fulghum.
Check out Keillor on youtube endorsing Obama and influencing your vote. What's that all about?
It's only when you admit that you've been drinking the koolaid that you will see the light.... Keillor is just another "media star" abusing that big soap box.
bloggerjoe 3 years ago
There are several different reasons people get famous, talent is one of them. Maybe that makes you feel inadequate but deal with it.
I was a supporter of Obama before I saw Keillor's endorsement. Celebrity endorsements have different causes & varying degrees of efficacy.
Based on your last comment, I'm going to assume you're being ridiculous on purpose to incite some kind of linguistic violence, so I'm just going to end this ridiculous debate with I'm right & you're wrong, so :-p

Are you suggesting that famous people are naturally "talented?"

Keillor was partially right about Wikipedia. What sucks about Wikipedia is that now in virtually any t.v. show, characters will suddenly start making references to obcure topics/subjects, where it's all too bloody evident that it was the writer pillaging Wikipedia.
Wiki/google is turning out to be a bit of a writer's crutch.

The reason you never made it on TV Gary (Garrison's real name) is that commercial sponsorship would be nearly impossible to sustain once people saw your arrogance on camera.
