A Bone To Pick A-Bone
-
- TV & Film
A Bone To Pick is a combination of "Fresh Air" and "A Prairie Home Companion." The first two parts are reviews or commentary on television and literature, along with advice about what to watch or what to read. The second half contains humorous musings on a variety of categories, from the perils of furniture shopping with an engineer to the overuse of the word "ironic." There's something for everyone to enjoy, because everybody has "a bone to pick."
