After 40-plus years of delighting radio audiences each Saturday night with America's favorite live variety show, A Prairie Home Companion founder and host Garrison Keillor bids farewell with an unforgettable performance from the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, California. It's a duet singing extravaganza, with Sara Watkins, Sarah Jarosz, Aoife O'Donovan, Heather Masse, and Christine DiGiallonardo joining Garrison on time-honored American ballads, British Invasion romps, country-western weepers, and Broadway classics. Plus: The Royal Academy of Radio Actors, Tim Russell, Sue Scott, and Fred Newman, with L.A. tales and sound effects straight from rush hour on the 101; Music Director and pianist Richard Dworsky moves wondrously from stride and spirituals through surf instrumentals and a bit of Rock n Roll; a special sendoff from President Barack Obama; and one last update on the News from Lake Wobegon, the little town that time forgot, and the decades cannot improve.

Andrew Brewster Crawford, AKA “A.B.C.,” a playwright obsessed with the glamour, glory, and gloom of the Kennedy era, has written a play about the last day of JFK’s life in order to cast himself as the martyred president, win the love of a beautiful “Jackie Kennedy type,” and live happily ever after in a Camelot of his own creation.   
He’s got the great man down.  The wind-swept haircut.  The sailing-ready nautical digs.  The Boston-by-way-of-Harvard accent.  The easy witticisms to defuse tension.  But in A.B.C.’s quest to fashion himself after his hero, JFK, and mount his magnum opus, he conducts himself more like LBJ, a man who believed that the quickest route from point A to point B ran underground. 
O Jackie! is a story about the internal and external chaos created when an artist with both a superman and inferiority complex chooses to be the self he wishes he was, instead of the self he truly is.

'Getting sex advice from Irish nuns was like getting dental hygiene tips from Shane McGowan . . . '

The journey from Peig Sayers to Miram O'Callaghan has been arduous. In Irish Bitches Be Crazy, Emma Comerford shines her provocative and entertaining light on the sometimes erratic psyche of the modern-day Irish woman. Part exposé, part how-to guide, you will find out about :
• how to perform the Walk of Shame with utmost dignity and deal with the ensuing Catholic guilt
• how many people you can tell when you're sworn to secrecy
• coping with the consequences of an out-of-control hen party
• acquiring assertive school gate etiquette
• overcoming your Zumba/Pilates/book club antagonists
• how alcohol-dependent you and your friends really are.
A hilarious mix of wit, razor-sharp observation and self-deprecation, Irish Bitches Be Crazy heralds an exciting new satirical voice and is a must-read for women and men alike!
