I don’t listen every week but I think this week it will be one of the best shows ever. It is being produced on Oahu and there are some special guests according to prairiehome.publicradio.org.

Coming to you this week on A Prairie Home Companion, a live broadcast performance from the island paradise of Oahu, Hawaii. With special guests, ukulele virtuoso Jake Shimabukuro, slack key guitarist Danny Carvalho, and legendary Na Hoku Hanohano Award winner; multi-instrumentalist Ledward Kaapana. Also with us, vocalist Heather Masse, slack key Kahuna Jeff Peterson, The Royal Academy of Radio Actors; Tim Russell, Sue Scott, and Fred Newman, The Guy’s All-Star Shoe Band, and the latest News from Lake Wobegon.

I wanted to stop on over, however, the airfares are a bit expensive fro that. Still, if you can at all listen, please do so. The music will be exceptional!

The above website has a link you can follow to see when the program will be available in your area and which station is carrying it on December 31st.
