Description

The very first collection of hilarious fake commercial spots from A Prairie Home Companion's "advertisers."

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 ficticious 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 recorded from live broadcasts is a true treat for aficionados of A Prairie Home Companion.
