I love Catherine‘s comedy and think she is witty and hilarious. I’m of her generation and can relate to a lot of the things she talks about. My only criticism is the first five minutes of each episode where she eats snacks sent in by listeners. The crunching chewing and slurping on microphone drives me nuts. Just skip that part and enjoy the rest of the podcast.

I’ve always loved Kathleen Madigan but didn’t know about her podcast until recently. I’m catching up listening to oldest first. I’m always laughing out loud in public all by myself, getting odd looks. I think I’m swearing a bit more since listening. I only wish I could afford the pricey tickets in Seattle to see her in person. Informative and funny!

Kathleen has a way to make all of us feel like we are good friends just hanging out and talking. I love her podcast and appreciate no commercials (but I understand if she starts) podcast/ pubtcasts cost money.

I love Kathleen’s random subject matter and her ability to make fun of absolutely everything. We all need a little Kathleen sunshine now and then. She is also amazing to see live too.

As a huge fan I Look forward to each podcast . Seen you live twice and looking for another opportunity to see you again soon. Love the “What Are We Watching” segment as your recommendations are spot on for me!! Sending love to baby cat, Paddles and of course you too:}

I’m just a few years younger than you- Don’t be mean to other women Meagan- keep on doing everything else you’re doing- and maybe don’t support golf courses- d like jungle Jenga golf courses- NOT manicured with poison I love you!

When Covid first hit, they didn’t let people in crowded, live theaters, so thankfully I wandered into Madigan’s Pubcast. Love the “life on the road” stories, the current event stuff that’s so heavy, but Madigan comes outta left field and gives us a break. She just a damned funny comedian! Never goes preachy, and always heads for fun, bizarre topics. Laughing and smiling are good for you. Listen to this one! Update: Kathleen, you called these unfortunate people with Encephalitis Water Heads and still seem to think that’s kinda funny? Huh. Not good, or comical.

Kathleen has a great standup act but too long and laugh less on Podding

I look forward to hearing from Kathleen every week. She has created a platform for her journalism skills. She has consistently shared her often hilarious and spot on reactions to print and video items provided by her research assistants. I like hearing the laughter and muted comments of her technicians and I’m sure it helps Kathleen. They are doing the work of the Lord.

Ten stars! We love you!

I can’t imagine my life without Kathleen’s Pubcast now, it’s the highlight of my week when a new one is released! Here’s to many more, cheers Kathleen and Paddles!

EDIT: Now Paddles has added the loudest clap she possibly can. I used to be the odd termite out on this one but guys….it’s so bad. It’s almost like Jody reads the comments and has decided to scrape her nails down the chalkboard in response. I love Kathleen. I’ve been a termite before the term was coined. Paddles’ laugh is so goddamn annoying. JC. It really makes it hard to enjoy the pubcast and it’s FANTASTIC but she ruins it with the obnoxiously LOUD, incessant laughter. It overshadows Kathleen and it’s absolutely ridiculous. I have to give 5 stars to Kathleen but if I had to consider Paddles too it’d be a 2. That’s how distracting it is. I look forward to this every week…and I dread Paddles ruining it every week.. 😭

Hysterically funny! A bit educational, not political, healthy attitude and good vibes! What more could you want? Try one show and you’ll be hooked. I ended up going back to listen to all of them from the beginning.

I’ve loved Kathleen as a comedian for many years. I was ecstatic to find her Pubcast during Covid. She is hilarious, super smart and has a common sense approach to things that go on in the world. Listen to her show! You will laugh a lot and learn just as much about what’s going on!

Content is so good and as always Kathleen Madigan delivers, but please, please the background laughter and sound is so distracting I can’t listen for any length of time, it’s so distracting and annoying.

Kathleen is my absolute favorite comedian! My ears just really don’t like Paddle’s maniacal laughter, I’m so sorry! I’m trying so so hard to just get over it because I love Kathleen so much! Nothing personal Paddles, I promise!

Before podcasts I purchased ur albums and love downloading to listen in my car. Keep up the great work.

A fan for decades, I was thrilled to find Kathleen’s podcast. I listen daily to old episodes….feel as though I’m in a social studies class with a great teacher. Hate I missed her show in Charleston this last weekend…Hope she had a great time in our home state.🥰Thank you, Kathleen, for helping keep my spirits up and Happy St. Pat’s☘️💕 🍺

Kathleen Madigan is a hilarious comedian and has made an almost great podcast series. As a recovered Catholic, I have often related to and laughed with her brand of comedy for years. However, no one has ever laughed as much as Paddles, the Ed McMahon of the show, who finds every word from Kathleen uproariously zany. Unlike other audible show partners like Robin Quivers, Paddles’ interruptions disrupt Madigan’s comfortable demeanor. Honestly, the sidekick is worse than a sitcom laugh track; almost enough to dismiss the show completely.

Just saw her live in ft Myers. She was excellent!!!

Kathleen puts fun in the day. I don’t drink, but love to hear her snack and drink review. Like hearing the Mormon jokes, gotta laugh at the mirror it helps me understand my own beliefs.

madigan totally slaps

Always listen to my weekly Madigan podcast! She always keep me up to date on sports I don’t follow and any news I missed

Every episode is like a warm hug from the entire mid west.

Look forward to this podcast every week. Keeps me laughing and informed about all the pop culture events .

Just watched ‘Mucho Muco Amor! Legend of Walter Mercado’. Why does this dude remind me of that dude?

Sincerely Alabama

Thank you, Kathleen! I ALWAYS listen on Wednesdays because this pubcast brings me so much joy. You rock! Grew up in OP, KS, now in Houston. We all really appreciate you. ❤️

Can you get two good mikes? Whoever is in the background laughing/talking is almost unintelligible, can’t hear them well, and it is irritating and weird. Bye-bye if you don’t fix this.

I have listened to every single episode at least once. Kathleen’s lighthearted but realistic outlook on life has helped me see the joy in the little things like unique treats and a good beer.

This podcast started strong and only got better. If you like wacky snacks, cats named after drug kingpins and Dolly Parton, this is the podcast for you.

Kathleen Madigan‘s podcast is funny, informative, and very entertaining. I could listen to her for days and days. She keeps us up on what’s new and I love her views. Give it a try I think you’ll like it.

I was never drawn to a one-person podcast, but I’ve enjoyed Kathleen’s shows and the podcast was recommended by my husband so I tried it. I’m hooked (even though I don’t have “an addictive personality”)! I enjoy Kathleen’s clever humor, her unique point of view and all the stories. Thank you for doing this “for us,” Kathleen!!!!!

Kathleen is who I would want on the stool next to me in any bar. I think she is hysterical and intelligent. I’m a 72 year old woman originally from Buffalo, NY and I find her humor to be very entertaining in a girl-next-door way. She is my favorite comedian.

She is, without a doubt, THE BEST!!!! Love the podcast and re-watched the stand ups to get me through recovery from nasty surgery…and it worked!!! 😉😉😉

I love this lady, BUT it’s annoying that you can barely hear her producer (?) in the background, chipping in. So either turn up her mike or cut her input, please!

Kathleen is awesome and righteously hilarious in a way that feels like home. But the loud girl off-microphone in the background letting off her constant, annoying laugh ruins the show. That girl makes me stop listening every time I try. Nearly impossible to listen with headphones because of her volume. It's to the point that it interrupts the flow of discussion. Pleeeeease get rid of her.

Love the pubcast! I look forward to it every week! Kathleen Madigan is hilarious and I love all the stories and articles she tells and reads o the pubcast!

I love a murder/true crime podcast but need to balance it with something positive and this pubcast has been doing the trick for years! 👏👏👏 Thank you for always making me smile and keeping me up to date with the news! 🤩😄🐈

Answer: No one :)!

She’s the best!

So relaxing and fun!

So enjoying this podcast. Maddie rambles with wit & humor. Kuddos on opinions expressed with kindness & consideration of others feeling.

Been a fan of Kathleen’s for a long time. Love coming to the pub each week!!

Been a huge fan of Kathleen for almost 10 years now. Podcast doesn’t disappoint and just adds to my love of all the content she delivers. Amazing performer and person. Keep the Pubcast going strong!

My fave podcast. Love everything about it and look forward to the new one every week. I laugh out loud at Kathleen and Paddles often. I prolly look crazy in the car laughing hysterically by myself but I don’t care! Love it 😍

Love the podcast. Feels like friend's having great conversations! Paddles, you are always welcome in my background. The camaraderie between the two of you is twice as fun! Don’t change a thing!

❤️❤️❤️ I’ve loved your stand up but now love the podcast. From trying beer and chips to the UPDATE! Problem is we need two a week! Love ya
