From 1999 to 2004-ish, I was one of the contributing writers for Garrison Keillor's renowned radio show "A Prairie Home Companion." I learned a lot of things there, mostly how to spell 'prairie." It was a solid gig and I'm proud of my work there. But, like any other job, there were...things...
What with Halloween approaching, I was obligated to come up with a Halloween sketch. What I did here was take a lot of bits and pieces, jokes and routines along with some one-liners and observations I've had over the years and cobbled them into a radio bit. Garrison talking with some Trick or Treaters, who really don't get it. I thought it was a solid PHC bit. No one else did. I may have worked some things into another long form piece, I don't recall right now, but here's my tribute to Halloween 2002...
