By prohibiting the use of Federal funds in any national programming, and in particular, by eliminating the CPB Program Fund, millions of Americans will be deprived of critical national and international news, information and cultural programming that cannot be found elsewhere.

  • A Prairie Home Companion”: First Broadcast (July 6, 1974) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Chuck Howell (Guest Post)*
    “A Prairie Home Companion”: First Broadcast (July 6, 1974) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Chuck Howell (guest post)* Garrison Keillor “Well, it's been a quiet week in Lake Wobegon, Minnesota, my hometown, out on the edge of the prairie.” On July 6, 1974, before a crowd of maybe a dozen people (certainly less than 20), a live radio variety program went on the air from the campus of Macalester College in St. Paul, MN. It was called “A Prairie Home Companion,” a name which at once evoked a sense of place and a time now past--recalling the “Little House on the Prairie” books, the once popular magazine “The Ladies Home Companion” or “The Prairie Farmer,” the oldest agricultural publication in America (founded 1841). The “Prairie Farmer” later bought WLS radio in Chicago from Sears, Roebuck & Co. and gave its name to the powerful clear channel station, which blanketed the middle third of the country from 1928 until its sale in 1959. The creator and host of the program, Garrison Keillor, later confided that he had no nostalgic intent, but took the name from “The Prairie Home Cemetery” in Moorhead, MN. His explanation is both self-effacing and humorous, much like the program he went on to host, with some sabbaticals and detours, for the next 42 years. Origins Gary Edward “Garrison” Keillor was born in Anoka, MN on August 7, 1942 and raised in nearby Brooklyn Park. His family were not (contrary to popular opinion) Lutherans, instead belonging to a strict fundamentalist religious sect known as the Plymouth Brethren.

  • 'On Being' Host Krista Tippett to Speak Nov. 7 on Mystery in Our Busy World
    ‘On Being’ host Krista Tippett to speak Nov. 7 on mystery in our busy world - 1 Tippett has since renamed her weekly show to “On ‘On Being’ host Krista Being.” It airs weekly on Utah Public Radio (FM 91.5 or streaming at UPR.org) at 6 p.m. Sundays. The name Tippett to speak Nov. 7 on change represents a shift of focus from an emphasis on mystery in our busy world religions to more inclusive spiritual matters, said Sowder. Tippett brings with her a lifetime of experience that earned her the National Humanities Medal, conferred in 2014 by 11/02/2018 President Obama. Earlier in her career, she wrote for such newspapers as the New York Times and served as a chief aide to the U.S. ambassador to West Germany. She earned her Master of Divinity from Yale University and in 2001 launched her radio program at Minnesota Public Radio; it went national in 2003. She’s since earned a Peabody Award for her broadcast work, as well as three Webby Awards. Her 2010 book, “Einstein’s God,” was a New York Times bestseller. Sowder appreciates Tippett’s focus on mystery -- a sense of unknowing and seeking that he seeks to share with Krista Tippett, host of the national American Public Media students both in English and in Religious Studies where show, "On Being," will speak as part of the Tanner Talks he’s also part of the faculty. “I think there’s an element series at 7 p.m. Nov. 7. of mystery we don’t really understand about how the universe works fundamentally,” said Sowder, “We try to Utah State University English Professor Michael find understanding through science, through art, through Sowder is a poet, a yogi and “a long-time student of the religion.’” contemplative religions of the world.” Our contemporary times are marked by a heightened So when he was introduced in 2003 to American Public search for meaning — the product, he says, of decades of Media radio host Krista Tippett and her weekly broadcast, world events that caused the “demise of all the traditional, then called “On Faith,” he became a committed follower.
