As a little boy, comedian Ray Ellin would sit cross-legged in front of the television and binge-watch reruns of the iconic show, Little House on the Prairie. Now a self-proclaimed "Prairie Head," Ray is taking all the lessons he learned from Laura Ingalls Wilder and sharing them with his guest each week, as they break down an episode of Little House, exploring a variety of subjects including love, life, sex, childhood, race, religion and of course, comedy, using an episode of LHotP as their backdrop. You don’t need to know anything about the show to enjoy this podcast - so climb aboard our covered wagon and enjoy the only prairie rewatch podcast hosted by an adult man!
