    The two years I lived in Minneapolis first (along with a few specific people there), then the radio show second. I'm not a huge fan, though I listen to NPR pretty much exclusively. I don't know why it hasn't grown on me more.

    He had an advice column in salon.com, as Mr. Blue, that I simply loved. If you don't know his style and wisdom, this is from his farewell column.

    "Illness offers the chance to think long thoughts about the future (praying that we yet have one, dear God), and so I have, and so this is the last column of Mr. Blue, under my authorship, for Salon. Over the years, Mr. Blue's strongest advice has come down on the side of freedom in our personal lives, freedom from crushing obligation and overwork and family expectations and the freedom to walk our own walk and be who we are.
    And some of the best letters have been addressed to younger readers trapped in jobs like steel suits, advising them to bust loose and go off and have an adventure. Some of the advisees have written back to inform Mr. Blue that the advice was taken and that the adventure changed their lives. This was gratifying.
    So now I am simply taking my own advice. Cut back on obligations: Promote a certain elegant looseness in life. Simple as that. ...."

    Prairie Home Companion -- which I've listened faithfully to for nearly 20 years. I've seen his show live 3 times (once in Louisville, once at the Universal Amphitheatre and last summer at the Hollywood Bowl). By the way, seeing stuff at the Hollywood Bowl is fun--it's a picnic with thousands of folks--

    I would say "A Prairie Home Companion."
