Oh no. I haven't listened to Prairie Home Companion for quite a while; lately my Saturday nights have been filled with other things. However, I used to spend most Saturday evenings, usually while John was at work, listening to a number of shows on NPR, and never turn on the tv at all. Then several local stations jumbled up their schedules, the station I used to listen to it on changed their format to completely classical music, and other family members wanted to do other things. I was at least listening to the monologue as a podcast until my desktop and harddrive I was storing everything on concurrently died, now about a year ago. I do still get an email newsletter, and think, "Dammit, I need to start listening to that again." That's where I read the following.

Tom Keith, actor and sound effects person for the show, passed away Sunday; he was 64. Aside from Garrison Kiellor, he was a good part of the show. I find it hard to think how it will sound without him.

Very quiet, I imagine.
