A Prairie Home Companion was also a dear loss too.
I enjoyed Live from Here, its replacement - but Chris Thile was not Garrison Keillor, and the pivot from an even mix of storytelling and music to mostly storytelling, caused it to lose something.
I think had COVID not come along, it could have found its audience, but alas, COVID came and it went.

- quacked 3y agoLive From Here was mostly storytelling? I thought it was mostly music, given that Thile is one of the greatest living musicians. I never listened to a whole LFH show, but I watch a lot of great musical clips from it. Here's my favorite LFH clip: https://youtu.be/I_LhXKBSNi8?si=QzqUBXzWLutFQtck&t=127 https://youtu.be/I_LhXKBSNi8?si=QzqUBXzWLutFQtck&t=127
