In Other Words (2006, Warner Bros.) - Billboard Magazine Album Review

"Standup comedienne Kathleen Madigan makes her major-label debut with In Other
Words, a witty and wonderful effort that's just too short. Madigan's greatest strengths are
her balancing of the cynical and approachable and her equal-opportunity antagonism.
There's edgy material underneath her everywoman delivery as Madigan skewers both
George W. Bush and Ted Kennedy, along with lesser targets like Larry King and Oprah.
Her Bush rant on "Politics" is the highlight of the album, with Madigan pointing out how
the president always re-explains things that don't need re-explaining (Madigan as Bush:
"Osama bin Laden is hiding in a cave, people. In other words, he's playing peek-a-boo"). 
Effortlessly transitioning from one topic to the next, the album flies by in what seems like
a lot less than the 47 minutes it is, which makes minor complaint number one that the
listener is left wanting more, much more. Longtime comedy fans, on the other hand, will
appreciate how she recalls the brassy and brash Rusty Warren at times, or how she can
riff on family life like a more acerbic, golden-age Bill Cosby. Anyway you slice it, In
Other Words is such a great throwback to the days when standup wasn't all character-
driven or "indie" that one has to wonder why the majors didn't call her up sooner." ~
