Whenever I hear the news from Lake Wobegon, I feel like I'm back in my hometown and visiting my family and neighbors. Please don't ever leave us, Garrison. In these crazy times we live in, we need your humor and soothing voice to help us keep our sanity.

My late husband is the one who introduced me to Garrison Keillor's show. Every Sunday!
The day always started with easy jazz and a great breakfast!
And it always wound down listening to Mr. Keillor.
Hearing his voice takes me back to our home and it warms me.

[JeremySalucka]

Garrison, I've missed your voice and storytelling. So very glad to see and hear you again!!!

[Willhomes]

I’m grateful that my dad introduced me to Keillor and the show in the 1980’s. From it I gained an appreciation of diverse music genres, politics, irony, humor, and the art of storytelling. I still love listening to the old shows that are available on the APHC website.

Thanks for 30 years of great radio and 10, 000 laughs.

[williambromley]

His voice is so soothing and mesmerizing.

[shilohnanny]

I listen to a Lake Wobegon story on my phone each night before I drift off to sleep. Soothing in this crazy world.

[zapper]

YES, Garrison is back!!!! Keep the News coming.

Well now you made me cry, it just so happens to be August 2023 when I’m watching this and my name is Monique, I too am thin with dark hair. Thank you, stay well, you’re treasure 🎁

[Yonatan]

Garrison, you are the best thing ever out of Minnesota. Bless you for making us laugh at the world and ourselves.

[gordonbrown]

Thank God you're back.  Please don't stop again.

[brendaneal-vey]

What absolute JOY to hear your voice telling the best stories!! THANK YOU & GOD BLESS!

Mr. Keillor, seeing you come out strong despite what the media put you through, on my end it was like watching a distant uncle be slandered and exonerated. I'm all smiles to see you back at giving the world kind and human entertainment.

Every Sunday my father would listen to his program on the way home from evening service. One of the strongest memories I have with him.

[thomasromano]

So glad you're back, Garrison!! Don't let anyone keep you down. Minnesota Public Radio was so unfair in condemning you! The one and only Lake Wobegon, YES!! I've seen Garrison Keillor onstage four times now. The last performance was at the Hult Center for the Performing Arts in Eugene, Oregon, where he was literally onstage for the whole show, never taking a break. That was about two weeks before the shit hit the fan about his alleged sexual abuse charges. I also used to listen to his "Writers Almanac" every day, enjoyed that program, too. I couldn't believe how quickly MPR threw him under the tracks without any real conviction, just discarded him like he was nothing. Shame on you, MPR!

[bethanywaldron]

You made my night! Your humor is one of a kind and hearing your voice is like home.

[MJ-nbqn]

Not bad for a “tax and spend liberal” as you said a number of times. Love you Man. I started listening your first year on the radio. Hard to believe, the years roll on. Bless You GK!
