The host of long-running American radio show A Prairie ѿý Companion says he is proud of having the "good judgement to quit" after 40 years at the helm. Garrison Keillor said he would like the programme to continue as a live variety show. His successor as host would do “an even better job”, he told the Today programme. The secret of radio was the “single voice directed to the listener”, he said, criticising US television for becoming "balkanised" - or increasingly fragmented.
