I loved her "Shallow Happy Thoughts for the Soul" and added "In Other Words" to my collection. It's every bit as funny as the first, but with more explicit language. I voted for George Bush, am Catholic, and am a WV resident and still found all those jokes related to those areas funny. Her delivery, impersonations, speed, and cracking her ownself up make me laugh.

I see that I'm the first person to review "In Other Words," but I have no doubt that I won't be the last. With all her appearances on TV (including the Tonight Show) and across the country, Kathleen Madigan can hardly be called an undiscovered talent, but considering just how good she is, I think the fact that she isn't BETTER-known is some sort of mortal sin; I'll consult my catechism.

I recently discovered Kathleen Madigan's standup material on Comedy Central, and even with the occasional BLEEP and infuriating commercial she was still the funniest comedian I've seen in years. Too many years. Her material is uniformly brilliant and thought-provoking, adult but not dirty, covering topics ranging from her brothers (and they're real: she's got pictures of them on her website) to George Bush to eternal life to drinking copious quanities of ale in blessed Ireland, you name it, she's got it in there. In fact, for a sheer intellect-to-hilarity ratio, the only other living comedian in her league is the great Eddie Izzard. She's THAT good.

If you've already heard her material you know this newest CD is a sure bet; if you've never heard her before, I urge you to take a chance and grab this.

If you aren't afraid to laugh, you have to buy this CD. You will go from screaming in laughter to deep sadness when the last track ends. Kathleen keeps it real.

Best female comedian. Ever. You will laugh until you sides hurt! Buy this CD- I promise you will not be sorry!

Very Funny! I think Kathleen is one of the funniest ladies out there would love to see a live show, worth every penny.

Kathleen Madigan has a unique down-home sense of humor. She connects with her audience. Her humor in this CD is occasionly risqué but not vulgar. I mean, she talks like people in your office but a lot funnier. I hardly ever listen to CDs twice, but I have to tell you I have gone back to this one several times.

I love Kathleen Madigan. She is my favorite female comedian and this cd is great. I highly recommend it.

She is hilarious. The day I recievedit I played it 3 times.

if you enjoy Kathleen, you'll enjoy this - but she's done better

Very little laughter from me. It's not that Madigan's humor is distinctly unfunny or in bad taste, which is why my rating isn't any lower, it's simply average humor. I gave this album away. Pity! She's funny on the Bob & Tom show because she has a cast of four to bounce off of.
