Description

Guys' Shoes, Bertha's Kitty Boutique, and Powdermilk Biscuits are just a few of the fine "sponsors" of public radio's Saturday-evening staple, A Prairie Home Companion. This new collection includes fictitious advertisements from longtime supporters such as the Catchup Advisory Board and the American Duct Tape Council, special messages from the Minnesota Diminishment Clinic and the Professional Association of English Majors, and other sponsors peddling unique wares and unexpected services.

Combining catchy slogans, memorable jingles, sometimes-seamless segues to product promotions, and the spirited aural antics of Tom Keith, this first-ever colleciton of sponsor ads is a true treat for aficionados of A Prairie Home Companion which attracts more than three million listeners every week. All tracks are recorded from live broadcasts.
