What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I watched the most recent Amazon comedy special and decided that Kathleen is now my favorite comic. Now, I get to hear her thoughts on things every week. For example, there is almost no beer that isn’t welcome in her life. She especially likes weird ones that have fun cans. We also learn things every week because we’re not staying dumb. For example, I learned that there are ways that professional gamblers place their bets so they don’t end up with broken kneecaps in an alley somewhere. Add it to your favorites. You won’t regret it.

Love the casual, silly banter. Though I do differ with Kathleen’s Target feelings. I like that the youngster workers smile and wish you a nice day. I even had a chat about favorite Siete Potato Chip flavors with a young Target clerk - Sour Crema and Onion is fabulous. In this era, it’s refreshing to have the ‘children’ engage customers with a kind greeting. Keep up the silliness. It is appreciated!

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!

RespectisGood · Oct 2024

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.

Laura R. TN · Oct 2024

I love Kathleen Madigan but I cannot take the woman with the atrocious cackle. Her laugh is so off putting, loud, and cringey, it distracts from enjoying the podcast. I really tried to muddle through but had to unsubscribe to calm my nerves.

KarmaNJ · Aug 2026

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.
