Hi Diana, This page <http://prairiehome.publicradio.org/stations/>
Says you can subscribe to a podcast of Garrison Keillor's monologue, The News from Lake Wobegon, but it won't include the whole show with music etc - this is the same as, say, Margaret Throsby's show on Classic FM where you can download her interviews but not the music: > Podcast > > Many listeners have been asking us to make A Prairie Home Companion available > as a podcast. We are unable to do so at this point in time. > > The reason we cannot offer the whole show up for podcast is that we feature > many different bands and musicians on our show. As such, their intellectual > property is being broadcast to the listening audiences. We would have to get > each artists' permission, not only to distribute their music in this way, but > they would also have to be comfortable with the fact that it could be shared > easily. > > We do have Garrison Keillor's monologue, The News from Lake Wobegon available > in podcast form. You can subscribe to it here <http://prairiehome.publicradio.org/about/podcast/>. They also point you to apps to listen to the (whole) show on iPhone/iPads: > If you're trying to listen on a mobile device, like Apple's iPhone or iPod > Touch, you'll need to download an App to hear the show. We recommend the > Public Radio Player (iTunes link). Once you've installed the player, you'll > need to find a station that broadcasts Prairie Home Companion. The iTunes link is <http://itunes.apple.com/app/public-radio-player/id312880531?mt=8> There is more about the app here <http://apps.prx.org/our-apps/public-radio-player/> > What stations are eligible to be in the Player? > > The station needs to be a public radio station, one of hundreds of > non-commercial radio stations in the United States. Many of these local > stations carry programs you may listen to, like Morning Edition, Car Talk, A > Prairie Home Companion, and This American Life. Familiar names like NPR, > American Public Media, and Public Radio International are organizations that > produce many of the radio programs you hear, but they don¹t actually have > radio stations to play them on.

Most public radio stations focus on news and talk, but > many also play great music all day long everything from classical and jazz > to blues to indie rock. So it seems you just need to pick one of the Public radio stations that transmits A Prairie Home Companion. Have fun ;o) Cheers Neil -- Neil R.
