  1. Hi, I just started listening to the show. Thanks. I’m enjoying it. Just some feedback. Maybe it’s because I have so many podcasts to get through during the week, but I have to listen to yours in 2x speed. The dialogue just seems a little on the protracted side at times. ANyway, thanks again.

    • Hi Peter, many thanks for the feedback. I’m always aiming to make the show better, more enjoyable and entertaining, and above all, as offensive as possible!

      Many thanks for the feedback, and please feel obliged to drop back and let us know whether we’re improving or not.

    • Hi Jake, actually I think it has got better (re: speed). Good one. On another matter, I listen to other atheist podcasts, but yours is the only one without a human co-host (ie. not including your frequent guests ‘Satan’ and ‘God’). Nothing inherently ‘wrong’ with that. I just feel that, at times, it could do with a second voice. Have you thought about a co-host, even if for only one segment of the show (eg ‘Supernews’). ie have a co-host gather and read the news and have you respond/discuss…and see where it goes. Could be a good evolution of the show. Let me know if you want to discuss further. Peter. slarti45@gmail.com. You’re in Brisbane right? I’ll be there next week if you want to chat.

  2. Jake does make the effort to improve his presentations in every sphere he blogs pods etc.

    He is pretty good with criticism as well. He doesn’t understand what tanked means.. I can fix that up should he ever stay in Sydney.

    Lambrusco, lovely wine.. but sheesh, Radar O’Reilly drank an emphatic Shirley Temple in comparison..

  3. You podcast is like crack to me. My addiction to the show exceeds my craving for Russian amputee porn and drowning the neighbor’s cats.

    May I have some more, please?

    Your humble servant,

  4. Hi Jake!
    I’m a newcomer to the show and after one listen, I’m hooked. I’m still working my way through the back episodes and each and every show is just so very funny and informative. Thank you for spending your time and effort to bring us such a funny (and due to the news segments, infuriating) show. I live in small town America, right in the middle of the bible belt so oftentimes I feel surrounded by lunacy. It’s nice to be able to turn to your show for a good laugh and a large dose of reason. It’s a breath of fresh air.
    Thanks again,
    Ashley

    • Hey Ashley, sorry for taking too long to reply… WELCOME!!

      Please feel welcome to drop back any time. Also, if you’d like to become involved in the show and content, shoot me an email (jakefw “at” gmail.com).

      Warm regards,

      Jake.

    • Thanks Michael, glad you enjoyed it. Make sure you let us know if there’s anything we should be doing or could do better!

      It’s the People’s show!

  5. just found your podcast because you were a guest on another atheist podcast. very #@*%ing funny.
    here’s a skit idea for ya. i always want to see a parody of soilent green with the eucharist, picture chuck heston laying on a stretcher w/ a bloody hand raised in the air saying “you’ve got to tell them, it’s god, we’re eating god”
    and “soon they’ll be breeding him like sacred cattle”

  6. Great show Jake, highly entertaining, sharp as a knife!

    Can you though please spend a little technical time getting the sound levels more even across the whole show? I normally listen to the show on an iPhone in the car & I have to adjust the volume up & down throughout the show (eg. some music is too loud some speaking parts too quiet). Otherwise all good!

    Lastly, re Terry Jones & his antics. Putting aside the fact that he is a knob, at what point do you stop defending his “right to free speach” – when someone is annoyed/offended/injured/killed? Thanks.

  7. G’day Hugovg,

    Re levels, my fault, I’m trying a new program for levelling and it’s been an exercise in futility! I’ll go back to manual editing for next week – more work, but end product is far better.

    I really like your question, about Terry Jones, we’ve asked that question about the God Hates Fags, Westboro Baptist Church assholes. In their case, however, no one has died as a consequence of their brand of moral repugnancy, something which obviously can not be said for Terry Jones.

    On the face of it, I don’t disagree with what Jones did, it’s just a book and it’s the Muzzies who committed the atrocities. But as I said in the podcast, Jones knew what he was doing, he knew what the reaction would be, and he now has all the justification he needs to do what he did.

    He is not a criminal, but he is an accomplice, he is an instigator. It is the hypersensitive, precious extremist morons who killed innocent people for no real reason.

    Great question, I’ll pose it on next week’s show! Thanks for listening, Hugovg.

  8. I really enjoy the show. It’s very entertaining, informative, and never boring like I found a lot of other podcasts. Keep up the good work.

  9. Fabulous show! Certainly the most entertaining of the many I listen to. Of course, I listen to SGU, Reasonable Doubts, The Non-Prophets, Skeptoid and others. I love ‘em all, but yours makes me laugh out loud! It seems to me that an effort to improve it might only make it more similar to the others which I might not count as a good thing. I’m so glad I heard your interview!

    • Thanks Bat P,

      Greatly appreciate it! The show is yours, it is the people’s show, so please spread the word to the rest of the people on Dog’s brown earth!

      Peace,

      Jake.

  10. My way to say “Goodday” to you, is “Goodday”. (Does it have two Ds?)
    Great podcast, one of my favorites.
    I bought your book (kindle version, sorry), and your song “Pray the gay away”.
    I support you financially and, well, that other way that’s not like, spiritual.
    So, I expect an email inviting me to be a guest on your show any day now.

  11. A useful dialogue might be priced at check. I perform are convinced that you require to come up with a great deal these things make a, and also imagined a very taboo contents having , constantly people can be there are not sufficiently to convey when considering many things. Some other. Best wishes. Please click our family to be found at : Camp Cook Stoves

  12. Hello Jake: I wrote a while back about how the podcast is showing up in two windows (it still is) in iTunes and now episodes 9 to 29 are not showing. I am trying to catch up on old episodes. Loving the show and love to hear a foreign perspective on screwball US politics and religion. I do live in the US.

    • Hey Michael. Weve finally completed the switchover to the Libsyn feed, which should mean that from this next week, the picture issue should be resolved. With the older episodes, I’m uploading the back catalogue as quickly as the upload limit at Libsyn will allow, but if you can’t wait, and I totally understand, you can find all back issues at http://www.blip.tv, just search for the name of e show.

      Otherwise, the remaining shows will be up there as soon as possible.

      Thanks again for listening!!

      Jake.

  13. Hi Jake: The Phelps interview was interesting to say the least. Logic or reason does not go far with them. Are you aware of another Phelps son, Nate Phelps. He turned atheist and speaks out about the family. He has been interviewed on several atheist podcasts. He might be a good follow up interview. Thanks for the show.

  14. A lot of of what you articulate is supprisingly appropriate and it makes me wonder the reason why I hadn’t looked at this with this light previously. This piece truly did switch the light on for me as far as this particular topic goes. Nevertheless there is actually just one issue I am not necessarily too comfortable with and while I attempt to reconcile that with the main theme of your position, permit me see what all the rest of the subscribers have to point out.Very well done.

  15. I just discovered this site through OZ McGaffer, and just wanted to drop a quick note on how great I think it is that this site exists. Thank you for all the Logic, and Reason. Truly making the world a brighter place! Thank you!

  16. Greetings everyone, and Thank you Jake, found your podcast only a few weeks ago and am now all the way up to episode 58. I was thinking about your comment in ep57 about the Burka and it’s wrong for countries to legislate what people wear. My friend is a nudist, and she would love to be able to go to work naked, but the country says she can’t and she sticks to these laws, even if they go against her only belief.
    Something to think about, if the Druids (now an official religion in the UK) said that they needed to be naked with nature every Wednesday after the full moon, they would be arrested no matter what their religious views were.

    • Hey Michael,

      Firstly, thanks for listening to the show!

      Secondly, you’re completely right. My comments are more, “the government should not change the laws concerning clothing”, rather than having no laws at all.

      Great food for thought though, Michael, really appreciate the feedback!!

      Cheers

      Jake.

  17. I’m a fan of the show and love the informed discussion and banter. Jake my only criticism is this guest book is so overrun with spam that it looks very unloved.

  18. Guys,

    A big fan of your show (in the US). I listen to over 10 Atheist podcasts. I have to say yours is at my top 2 and definitely the only one that makes me smile constantly which is something we lack in the atheist community in my opinion. We seem to be always taking things too seriously and that’s OK but you guys manage to do it and still give it a funny note.

    Thank you for taking your time and putting your talents to work so that we can enjoy of the show. Thanks to your families and friends as well for supporting you on this.

    Cheers!
