It has yo momma jokes, knock knock jokes, and of course the how many irishmen does it take to screw in a light bulb. The book also has a running undertone of anti Semitism through the constant fart jokes. The plot lacked any narrative structure and the characters were at the best of times, clichéd. I bought this book in the hope for an engaging and enveloping read.
Since these could be told on the radio, they are fairly 'clean'. We like to sit around a pit-fire in the back yard and read from these until we are doubled-over in laughter and have to close the book. Gathers the best jokes from the radio show's annual joke shows, in such categories as bar jokes, one-liners, musician jokes, North Dakota jokes, and puns. The original Pretty Good Joke Book was pretty darn funny, yet each edition just gets better.

I was disappointed to find how the author must constantly link his jokes to a neo-Marxist regime, e.g. 'why did the chicken cross the road? ', with the 'Chicken' representing Lenin, the road being the Bolshevik revolution of 1917 and the 'other side' being the USSR. Keillor resigned from The Morning Program in February 1971 to protest a perceived attempt to interfere with his musical programming. The show became A Prairie Home Companion when he returned in October. Just the pick-me-up I needed at the end of a terrible week. I actually laughed out loud while reading it silently to myself with no one but the cat to hear me.
Then fans wanted to read the jokes, share them, and pass them around, and the first Pretty Good Joke Book was born. With over 200 new and updated jokes, the latest edition promises countless giggles, chortles, and guffaws anyone--fans of the radio show or not--will enjoy.

The show also contains parodic serial melodramas, such as The Adventures of Guy Noir, Private Eye and The Lives of the Cowboys. Keillor voices Noir and other recurring characters, and also provides vocals for some of the show's musical numbers. Garrison Keillor started his professional radio career in November 1969 with Minnesota Educational Radio, now Minnesota Public Radio.
If you're looking for some good jokes, I definetly recommend this. Some of them are stupid and others are corny, but the majority of them are funny. A well organized source of funny jokes and a few groaners. Humor is subjective, but this book should have something for everyone. A treasury of hilarity from one of America's favorite radio shows.

A Prairie Home Companion ran until 1987, when Keillor decided to end it to focus on other projects. In 1989, he launched another live radio program from New York City, "The American Radio Company of the Air" — which had almost the same format as A Prairie Home Companion's. In 1992, he moved ARC back to St. Paul, and a year later changed the name back to A Prairie Home Companion; it has remained a Saturday night fixture ever since. I read this book in one day and will be telling a few of the jokes the rest of my life. Warning do not read with a full bladder.
