I was astounded with the degree of similarity to PHC. The powdermilk bisquit commercials and jingles are *very* similar to the "martha white" flour ones on the Opry. The music is somewhat different (they don't get many Norwegian accordian players on the Opry). The jokes, monologues, guest commedians and general format are very similar however. I think there broadcasts from the opry house in Nashville at various times. I think the one to listen to is the Saturday night one about 9 or 10 p.m EST. Dust off your AM radio after PHC and give it a try.
