“The IMAO Bloggers take the Hate Filled Lefty to task over his comments about last week’s terrorist attacks in London
The Hate Filled Lefty has now been identified as George Galloway.
Just finished listening, awesome job Guys (and girl) you just seem to be getting better each week.
I think that the Round Table may have run a bit long and because the sound level for all the participants weren’t the same there was alot of times that people stepped on each others comments. Hmmm…strange that FrankJ’s sound level seemed fine….coincedence?
Not as good as last weeks. Round table discussion was not funny and far too long.
what…no crappy bedtime story?
You should have Minerva and Sidney beat up a ninja to embarrass Frank.
The roundtable sounded like the kind of chit chat you would hear on a night out after church at a Denny’s.
But there was a good bonus-we got to hear the beat down of HFL.
The HFL beatdown was the funniest
I like ’em… but the “Fun Facts” bits need to be shortened up. Too many of them read like a run on sentence, that is, not that there are too may “facts” per set. They’re gramatically correct, and all that jazz, but it just doesn’t “flow” right in my head.
Take a gander at Letterman’s “Top 10” lists — or, heck, even Frank J’s lists. Write ’em out and do a word count; I’ll bet that the “Fun Facts” ones are about 1.5-2.0x as long by comparison.
Hope that helps. I like the bit, but I think it could be better.
But … uh … there was no singing from Sarahk!?!?!?!? NO!!!!!!!!!
Other than that, pretty funny (although the frank discussion digressed a little…)
Ricky,
There was no crappy bedtime story because he would tell the story to Edloe while recording, and Edloe passed away recently:

My favorite:
“We have to save him. He owes me money!”
everyone else: “Me, too”

Thank you all for your comments. Over the past six weeks, we’ve had few positive comments about the roundtable portion of the podcast.
Here’s the big question:
SHOULD IMAO CONTINUE THE ROUNDTABLE?
If the answer is “yes,” what specifically do you want to hear during the roundtable to make it consistently better for you the IMAO Fans?
If the answer is “no,” then we’ll stop. We know that without the IMAO Fans, the podcast and the blog wouldn’t exist and we appreciate you all.
Thanks,
Scott McCollum
Producer, IMAO Podcast
Scott,
I think the roundtable is great as is. It sounds more spontaneous than the rest of the podcast and breaks it up a bit.
I think the main problem with the roundtable it that it doesn’t stick to the topic. If the talking points were adhered to it would be better. I’m not saying don’t digress, but don’t digress so far that you don’t make it back.
Not as good as the last few, but still very funny.
The round table was just wacky this time and not very funny…
I miss my crappy bedtime story.
However, listening as Spacemonkey got snatched was very funny… More stuff like that please.
As for your question about the roundtable Scott… Yes, keep it going… However this one just wasn’t as good as the last few… I can’t figure out exactly why… it just wasn’t.
Round Table sucked. Is weekly too much? I might have gotten spoiled by last weeks podcast.
More SarahK!
Singing, Reviewing. Blonding Us With Science.
More Hate Filled Lefty!
More Buck The Marine!
Jack.
More Crappy Bedtime Stories!
I like the Roundtable discussions, just don’t wander around so much.
I am trying to figure out which of the other three cats will tolerate having a bedtime story read to them.
I need more neosporin and bandages.
Keep the round table, try not to step on each others comments, stay (as close to possible)on topic, and fix the individual sound levels.
Hi, I just wanted to say, I loved the show. I found your podcast through Laurence Simon’s Phone Message on Dave at IsraellyCool.com’s podcast. your show is really fun, I loved all of it, no problems. Keep it, you gained a new solid listener and subscriber.

Why did iTunes take IMAO off?
I went to subscribe through iTunes (actually resub, because my podcast subscriptions got goofed up somehow), and IMAO is not there. Not even found in a search.
Pretty good overall. The sound in the roundtable needs a little tweaking but it’s better than it’s been in the past. Looks like y’all are finally getting a handle on the audio. The editing is getting better and everything seems to flow rather nicely. Sometimes, when I think a particular podcast isn’t up to snuff, I re-listen to the first and second one. By comparison, they keep getting better every week! Keep up the great job guys (and gal)!
I’ve listened to all of your podcasts and must admit, (using Tony the Tiger voice), They’rrrrrrrreeeee Greeeaaaaat!
Keep up the good work.
Funny you came up with this…I was away in the mountains and had no access to TV, but I returned the day after the London bombing, and for some reason thought…Bomb Mecca…and when I checked, even that WWW site is taken already…of course it would just piss them off even more…
…so, maybe we should ALL wake up and realize that there is only ONE whatever it is, call it what you like…ONE GOD, one intelligent, beautiful, wondrous, perfect being that created this world…this universe…and so to belive that this magnificent being that was able to create all of this, NEEDS ANYTHING, is an insult. Yet, what we have now in this world are millions and millions of people who belive all of this horse excrement that is being taught by the various religeons…no dancing, no pork, no shrimp, flog yourself or god will be pissed, your wife must wear a gown and headdress that looks like a ventilator duck, you cannot enjoy sex, no meat on Friday, blah, blah, blah, blah…utter BS…
…to believe that the creator of all of this NEEDS us to do anything is an insult to HIS/HER/ITS intelligence…the truth is that all of this crap was made up by NEEDY PEOPLE who wanted to control our lives…WAKE THE F…K UP AND REALIZE THAT YOU ARE GOD…as are everyone…and everything…the fact is this…there is NO separation between us and what we call GOD, none..nada. Everyone and everything, every atom and molecule, every particle of everything exists HERE AND NOW and always has…and thats it..and those that belive otherwise are the ones that are out there blowing themselves up killing each other and innocent people just because someone does not belive their nonsense…are STUPID…they are in a STUPOR…
TIME TO WAKE UP!

…and, as far as the other comments above…by Kevin…well, yep, who knows, the Vatican may be next, and then Jeruselem…and for CWChute…hey, instead of pork (which BTW I really happen to like) why not try dosing all of them with LSD…I GUARANTEE you after an acid trip…they will be as calm, peaceful, humble and loving and intelligent as anyone on this planet…
…and, one other thing that I forgot to mention…one of the WAYS that organized religeon uses to keep you in tow…is to convince you that you are SEPARATE from GOD…and of course, what could be more painful and fearsome than being SEPARATED from the ONE you love…but in reality, being part of the creator means that we are NOT separate from HIM/HER/IT…but these religeos “leaders” know this, and they use this idea and other nonsensicle crap to control the masses and make the followers OBEY…”you must bow down in the presence of the lord, for he is an angry god, and you were born a sinner and you will burn in hell…etc. etc. etc. ad nauseum…
…whew, just think about how exciting and wonderful it is for you to suddenly realize and then know that YOU are GOD….just like me and everyone else…and guess what…another lie
…the TRUTH does NOT hurt…well, it only hurts those that don’t want to accept this truth, and of course it is painful to realize…only momentarily…that you are wrong…
…hey y’all, remember this…shit and two is eight and a fart’s a fraction, and ENJOY your new knowledge… and what GOD actually told Jesus and Buddha and Mohamed, and all of the rest of those that were sent to help us figure this wonderful life out…BE HERE NOW…
…not
BOW KNEE HERE…
About the Fun Facts being too long:
Yeah, I know. Trouble is that some of the smaller states just don’t have a lot of popular stereotypes associated with them, so they need a little more setup.
On the bright side, Florida’s coming up week after next.

I thought the round-table discussion this week was the best ever. Maybe its just that I understand what’s going on when the topics go all over the place. It sounds just like lunch time conversations in my office. Then again, I and most people I work with have ADD. Anywho, I didn’t stop laughing until a little while ago!
HFL smackdown, terrorist hunt in Iraq, spacemonkey kidnapping…what could be better?
Keep up the roundtable just don’t let Frank sing anymore. Please, for the sake of all of us with hearing.
My company’s firewall will not let me access the podcast. Boooo! my company.
