Prairie Home Companion is the ONLY show on NPR I can't stand. I'll listen to People's Pharmacy, Back Porch Music, Diane Rehm, whatever, but please, God, don't make me listen to Prairie Home Companion.

Just noticing this post. So sad. Especially since he was on Raw hours before he passed. The doc the WWE network made for him is fantastic. Ugh you could almost have an RIP pro wrestlers thread.
