The Mimi Geerges Show - What our Listeners Say

"Your show is my favorite of all the XM shows I listen to going to and from work each day."

"Thanks for the great content on important and informative issues. I first listened to April 2007 What would Muhammad think? I loved the discussion and sided with Dr Peterson, however it was a lively discussion. Got me converted to your show on the web. I am a student in international affairs and value the program. Keep it up!"

"I now commute 1 hour to Princeton, NJ every morning. I drive from 7am - 8am which is perfect timing for your show. I just love it!! I look for you every morning but you are not on every day. At least I have you some of the week. Your guests are fascinating, the chat is great and I want more!!"

- Cindy from Morris Plains, New Jersey

"I at one time was in fostercare. My parents gave me up to the state of florida i think when i was about 3. i never had a real family going from home to home just angry at the world and yes my parents for what they did (yes i am white). I guess why i was put in different homes no one could handle me. i never really new my parents the state of FL. didn't want to help me get in contact with them they said that it would not be in my best interest, but some day i will find someone that knows of them and will tell me something. if not well it wasn't meant to be. it does hurt some times not knowing? well thats all i wanted to say, thanks for your show i'm glad i was able to listen to it.

" I enjoy your show so much that I added your web site to my favorites. I find that the questions you ask your guests are well thought out and intelligent. Your show is very refreshing."

- Steve from Lampasas, Texas

"I heard your interview with Dirck Halstead today on XM's sonic theatre. This was the first time I have heard your show, and I loved every minute of it. I was not at all familiar with yor guest until today, but will surely look deeper into his work. Thank you for bringing such an interesting piece to the table. Your new listener, Tim... "

"What Would Muhammad Do?" with Peterson & Spencer was informative, excellent, Great MG Show. Too bad Armstrong declined........."

- Michael, USA

"Re: Show on Muhammad. Fabulous. Kudos. Best from Lucy T"

- Lucy from Hastings on Hudson, New York

"I enjoyed the Spencer - Petersen discussion. More people in the US need to hear that jihadists base their violent actions on their religion, Islam, and the prospects of reforming Islam are virtually nil."

- Dan from Houston, Texas

"I've heard your show 3 times now and I'm hooked. I especially liked the show on Autism last week. I'm a long haul truck triver along with my husband. We wouldn't survive without XM radio. Thank you."
- Cheryl M. from America's Highways, USA

"Just finished listening to the show. Wow! Incredibly powerful, both segments. I had intended to listen at home, but I couldn't stop, gripped by Pete Early's story and his reading from 'Crazy'.''
- Meredith from Bethesda, Maryland

"I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed listening to your Nov 2004 interview with George Friedman (Author: America's Secret War). I found it on your website. That may be one of the most insightful and informative interviews I've ever heard. Absolutely fascinating...and you did a great job walking him through your questions."
- Mike from Bountiful, Utah

"I just heard your interview of Fawaz Gerges. Wow!! I don't listen to radio or watch TV (I would if there were more shows like yours, though). Anyway, I think you are great, and I passed the link to all my friends. I will check your show web site on a regular basis from now on. Best of luck."
- Jeff from Waco, Texas

"Thank you!! I found the interview with Mario............I love him!!! I heard about your show through Mario's website, and I'd like to let you know you've gained another listener. We need to support each other. Thanks again and I'll be listening from Boston."
- Anna from Boston, MA

"I thought your Phyllis Chessler interview was very interesting. I was left with just one question, how did the Hindu's get off the hook? I think bride burning is fairly well established in India. What made Ms. Chessler avert her eyes to that atrocity? Could it be that India not a threat to Israel? Using feminism to tacitly justify war is deplorable. People like Chessler need to wake up and smell the crude oil. We are not in Iraq to liberate women, or protect Israel for that matter. Iraq will be run by Iranians in 6 months, so long as they are willing to sell their oil through Haliburton. Phyllis Chessler's comments are inflamatory, irresponsible and clearly biased. She is, in point of fact, guilty of anti-semitic rhetoric herself. Arabs are semites!"
- James from Richmond, VA

"I checked out your web site, which is great. I would love to see LA's public radio pick up your show. ... we more need "talk" radio that is smart, thought-provoking and informative. I hope you reach the West coast soon."
- Whitney from Los Angeles, CA

"I heard your show last night (Oct. 16) on XM Radio and was riveted by it! It was one of the best talk shows I'd heard on radio. Please contact KUNC in Greeley/Fort Collins Colorado to get them to carry it."
- Sasha from Colorado

"I listened with great pleasure today for the first time on XM Public Radio and enjoyed the Tommy Sands interview. Hope to catch future broadcasts. Keep up the great work Mimi!"
- Hank from Fallbrook, California

“I heard your superb show on domestic violence on XM Public Radio. It's so refreshing to discover a radio program that explores a critically important and underreported issue with such clarity and depth.”
- Morey from Portsmouth, New Hampshire

“Your show isn't talk radio as usual or more of the same. It's lively, it's smart, it's a long-awaited alternative for public radio addicts like me."
- Eric from Alexandria, Virginia

“Mimi is the same league as Diane Rehm. I signed up for your e-mail newsletter so that I will be current with Focal Point as well. Thank you for being on the Internet.”
- Sidney from Baldwin, New York

“I am a huge fan of radio and I think independent shows such as Focal Point do a great service in improving the discourse of on-air talk.”
- James from Alexandria, Virginia

“Just finished listening to the interview w/Kristin Ohlson. Excellent! I found it to be a really well balanced interview which contained a nice mixture of Kristin's own religious background & struggle, the history of the Poor Clares, interesting tidbits about the community, and some of the issues the community is faced with today. Your questions hit all bases. Thanks for such an informative piece of reporting! I just may go out and buy a few more copies of the book to give as Christmas presents! Also, I think I may try to pick a few more subjects from your archives and listen to the interviews. I'm glad to be introduced to your show!”
- Leslie from Bethesda, Maryland

“Hi Mimi and company. Thank you for doing a show about the Sudan. As you know, many in the south Sudan are concerned about being wiped out by the north. The struggle between Christians and Muslims will unfortunately continue.”
- Mike from Alexandria, Virginia

“I am enoying your website - it has been quite informative. I especially enjoyed the interview with Jimmy Carter. I wish you the best.”
- Caroline from Springfield, Virginia

“Hello! I was delighted to discover fpradio. As an author just home from a book tour myself, I especially enjoyed Victoria Zackheim's commentary.”
- Gayle from Riverside, California
