NPR has added comedy to the menu of options available to you this Labor Day with our first Imagination Workshop Labor Day Marathon, eight hours of side-splitting skits and bits from public radio's premiere comedy troupe. Recorded live at various obscure locations throughout America's heartland, this talented bunch of comedians, voice impressionists, and skit performers-extraordinaire offer a potpourri of send-ups and put-ons sure to find your funny bone. Want proof? You could go all the way to their home page, BUT...why not stick around here? Every week leading up to Labor Day, we'll provide new Imagination Workshop audio samples from the list below. To listen, click on the title.
