When: During every live show from 5:00-7:00 p.m. CT.

Where: Go to www.prairiehome.org. During the live show, we post a special Webcast homepage with links to the live audio, as well as to the regular homepage. (The regular homepage returns after the live performance is over.)

Required: You can download a free copy of Windows Media Player. A broadband Internet connection is helpful, especially if you want to listen to the higher (64K) bitrate version, but not required.

What Happened to the Webcast Images? Images are no longer available via our Webcast. We have found that only a fraction of our audience visits us during the live broadcast compared to those who come to see us during the week. For that reason, we decided to focus our efforts on making a better experience online for those who come to the site during the week to relive what they heard over the weekend. You can still stop by for streaming audio, though! Just bookmark the homepage and stop by during live broadcasts. Click here for a schedule.

LIBERTY

Liberty:A Novel of Lake Wobegon A national holiday in Lake Wobegon is always gaudy and joyful. But what is going on between Clint Bunsen and Miss Liberty?
Everyone is here—Pastor Ingqvist, the Sons of Knute, Sister Arvonne of Our Lady of Perpetual Responsibility and her ocarina band, the Norwegian bachelor farmers, Dorothy and the Chatterbox Café, Wally in the Sidetrack Tap—as crowds converge on the little town to celebrate American independence, even as the chairman of the event broods on the great question of the day: Shall we struggle on valiantly here or shall we burst the bonds and find beautiful life in the golden west?



YOU WANT FRIES WITH THAT?

English Majors CD Set Scripts and bits from A Prairie Home Companion celebrate the secret society of men and women who possess excellent spelling and punctuation skills. (You know who you are.) Selections include "The Six-Minute Hamlet," a tribute to Emily Dickinson, a Guy Noir adventure that exposes an MFA scam, a riveting "Professional Organization of English Majors" drama, and guests Billy Collins, Robert Bly, Roy Blount Jr., and Calvin Trillin.
