‘Live From Here With Chris Thile’, Successor To ‘A Prairie Home Companion’, Cancelled

American Public Media, the Minnesota-based public radio network that produced the shows, announced the layoff of 28 employees and the immediate end of the weekly program that was heard on roughly 600 local public radio affiliates and drew an estimated audience of 2.6 million. APM attributed the decision to “our pressing financial deficit due to COVID-19 and the priorities of our long-term strategic plan.” – Billboard
