Mr. Keillor's tales of the fictional Lake Wobegon, Minn, its people and the businesses that "sponsor" the show are the ties that bind the show together. Listeners share in the ups and (mostly) downs of the Lake Wobegon Whippets baseball team, study the menu of Dorothy's Chatterbox Cafe, wonder how Lake Wobegon's favorite daughter, Barbara Ann Bunson, is doing at the University of Minnesota, cheer the attributes of Powdermilk Biscuits (made from whole wheat grown in the rich botomlands of the Lake Wobegon valley by Norwegian bachelor farmers).
- Country Life 1980
May 22, 1982 - The Seniors wonder why parents make such a fuss about graduation but its good to have ceremony because we miss the big one (our funeral).
June 5, 1982 - There are hysterical memories of the Memorial Day celebration when Father Emil's address went way too long and the Sons of Knute nearly shot the attendees by being startled when he shouted the word "Fire" in his message.
August 21, 1982 - The kids are getting bored at the end of summer and secretly look forward to the start of school. Uncle Earl loses 40 pounds but faces criticism because in Lake Wobegon everyone grew up to be "big."
August 28, 1982 - There is a lot of gossip going around Lake Wobegon about: the Heglund's bat, Mr. Anderson's mysterious daily visits to the garage, and the care of Irene Anderson's 20 oz tomato and it's demise.

"The purpose of talking about Lake Wobegon and telling the stories and so on is not nostalgic, for me, so much as it is upholding and defending a certain style of humor, and also a way of life that I identify with the Midwest and that I see as under attack by the national media and by television. It's a way of life and it's a culture that is based in the family and to some extent based on rural or small-town values . . . I see it as being under attack by the national media, who see it as irrelevant or passe or outdated" - Garrison Keillor, circa 1980
September 4, 1982 - Gary and LeRoy help to save the life of Baby Oberg. Also, the recalling of an early fascination with a girl in fifth grade and how it ended when they turned 17.
Seotember 25, 1982 - The Tollefson boy heads off to college and the parents are happy he is gone. Janice Lilliquest proudly becomes Homecoming Queen.
October 30, 1982 - As elections approach, Dorothy puts up a sign that says "no politics," even with Hubert Humphrey coming to town. There was avalanche of squash at the Berge household when the ceiling gave way just above their bed.
November 6, 1982 - It's time to pull out the wool long underwear and the men/boys try to figure out how to scratch that itch. In Lake Wobegon there is a big difference between those with manners and those without.
December 25, 1982 - The lights finally were put up by the men of the SideTrack tap and all other Christmas events went off without a hitch except the reading of the Gospel. Einer was chosen to read and his nerves got the best of him.

HOW I GOT CURED FROM PCOS & OVARIAN CYST. ( marianspells@gmail.com )
I am sharing this to give hope to those who are probably struggling from PCOS/Ovarian cyst on how they can be cured just like me. I was diagnosed with PCOS/OVARIAN CYST and I remember how broken I was when my doctor told me it would be difficult to conceive naturally and PCOS was a lifelong disease [ as the doctor puts it here ] I was devastated and confused. I had excessive weight, Irregular periods, Acne and a 10cm cyst accompanied by lots of pain. It wasn’t an easy journey for me. Although my husband was supportive, I really needed to have my own child and get rid of PCOS/OVARIAN CYST. How long do I have to wait to have my own child? When will this severe pain end? Sitting on my balcony and doing research with my phone, I bumped into a testimonial of Dr MARIAN about curing diverse ailments with natural herbs. I was hopeful and felt some slight relief, then I decided to reach out. I was happy I did. HE prepared a medication using herbs and roots which was delivered to me through courier services. I took the medication as prescribed, My cyst was gone completely and I was able to get rid of PCOS within three weeks [21days] of taking the herbal medication made from some selected herbs and roots. My doctor confirmed I was free from PCOS & CYST. Not so long after the treatment, I was confirmed to be pregnant naturally and I was able to conceive and had my first child. It was a massive joy for me and my Husband and I decided to put in more testimonies about the herbal doctor [Dr. MARIAN] cause i know there are people whom are in need of help also. I didn’t have to undergo surgery, everything worked out naturally. DR MARIAN i want you to know the service you provide no doubt changes the life’s of so many of us.

HOW I REUNITED WITH MY EX AFTER TWO YEARS OF SEPARATION.
DISCLAIMER!!!
This is my own little way of helping people who are going through what I went through.
My story is like that of Beauty and the beast.
I got married to my first love when I was 23 and we have a beautiful daughter together.My husband literally adore the ground I walk on and he means the world to me. We were sohappy as a unit until 3 rd September 2018, when tragedy struck and I was involved in a ghastlymotor accident which left me bed ridden and confined to a wheelchair ever since.It was as though my whole world has crumbled as I became helpless and a burden to my loved ones. My little daughter of 8years suffered the most emotionally in all of this. However, my husband was giving me all the support both physically and emotionally as I was being nursed back to health. However, as my health deteriorated with the passage of time, I noticed my husband’s attitude towards me had changed. He started keeping late nights and coming home drunk. This continued for some time and then what I feared the most happened. One faithful morning, he moved out of the house without a word. He wouldn’t return his calls or messages. Even his family members claimed not to know his where about. By this time, my kid sister had moved in with me to help with the chores and taking care of our daughter. I had countless sleepless night and would drench my pillow every night before going to bed. Then there was this Sunday evening that my kid sister invited her friend over for dinner. He met me at the lobby on my wheelchair and was very warm and chatty. It was obvious my sister had already briefed him on my situation. We ate dinner and during our conversation, he said his acquaintance had a similar situation like I did with my husband and the lady’s husband is now reunited with her and their kids after she encountered some certain man. I hesitated at first since my case was different but my sister somehow convinced me to give it a try and I obliged. We connected and I was introduced to DR MARIAN. Let me not bore you with my long sermons. To cut the long story short, the only man I ever loved, the man that walked me down the aisle is back home where he rightly belong. RIGHT BESIDE ME AND MY DAUGHTER Thank you DR MARIAN for taking your time to attend to my needs. I had already given up on online spells Because of my past experiences with scammers who claim to be what they are not, But DR MARIAN made me happy again. DR MARIAN is an expert at what he does with 30 years plus of experince and i strongly recommend him to anyone facing any matrital issues as his works are 100 percent GUARANTEED which i can continue to testify to.
