February 12, 2017: we celebrate the 150th birthday of Laura Ingalls Wilder, the author of the popular "Little House on the Prairie" books. We visit with Wendy McClure, author of "The Wilder Life: My Adventure in the Lost World of Laura Ingalls Wilder."  


Also, why you should forget everything you've learned about public speaking, and what theater can teach you about business and success. KPR's Kaye McIntyre visits with actress-turned-motivational speaker Karen Hough, CEO of ImprovEdge.

Kaye starts her weekends the same way you do: with Weekend Edition Saturday, Wait Wait Don't Tell Me, This American Life, and To the Best of Our Knowledge. She started at Kansas Public Radio in 2001; in 2006, she became the producer of our weekly public affairs program, KPR Presents. In her spare time, she loves to read, travel, and attend theater.
