I TOLD YOU SCOTTY FANS. I said the BUS was coming for Scotty, and I was right! Lauren Alaina was the REAL Chosen One, and watch her WIN THIS THING because of ANYTHING OTHER THAN HER VOICE. Sympathy votes, judges' false praise, just UNBELIEVABLE!
And Steven Tyler, did you REALLY just call Lauren the winners of Rounds 1 and 2 because she looked pretty, REALLY?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After watching the behavior of the judges, all I can say is that if Scotty loses, there is no way I will accuse him of "choking".

No worries, Scotty lovers...your guy is expected to win according to dial idol..As for me, it was a great season, but a boring finale.
Reply to this
The pimping for Lauren to even up the voting was disgusting.
Reply to this
Why did they actually bring a doctor out (and an odd looking doctor at that)? Did they think we wouldn't believe Ryan? That was hysterical. As was Ryan helping Lauren down the stairs. Idol, have you totally lost your mind? Can't wait to see what tonight brings.

Hey Matt did you purposely mispronounce Lauren's name all season long or are you just obnoxious?

Both

We will have one more show in two weeks to wrap up the season. After that? We will see

Hey Mike C: Looks like our final podcast for the season will be the week after Memorial Day, so we can have an extra week to process everything (and because it's a holiday weekend). However, you never know what might pop up over the summer.
Also, I just wanted to thank everyone for the amazing reception my comments received this week. I really did just speak off the cuff and from the heart, and your kind feedback is what really keeps me going. Thank you so much!

DESPITE the judges trying to throw Scotty under the bus, and DESPITE the producers trying to throw sympathy votes to THE CHOSEN ONE'S WAY, SCOTTY THE BODY PREVAILS!
Good job, Mr. McCreery, and "poor wittle wauren" as Tweety Bird would say.

Chris,
As a wise man once sang:
"Don't go messin' with a country boy!"

No radio show this week?

Loved the part where Matt was screaming about someone selling some records!!!!
and mentioning me was good too
Reply to this
Looking back over the season and last night's finale...I get a real sense that the top 11 enjoyed hanging out together and are looking forward to the tour. Since I haven't watched every season...that may be the norm...or not.
Another point that just hit me: while I'm sure every one of them would have been thrilled to win, I sense that most of them don't want to be superstars... they just wanted an opportunity to perform and share their talent with an audience. Obviously, Thia has a pretty strong drive -- since AI was her second attempt at national recognition. But I think her parents may be more ambitious than she is.
I think most of the top 11 would be happy making records, touring, and seeing success on a fairly moderate scale. And AI may have brought that chance to all of them.

Can I request the Haley Casey Jazz duet for the last podcast?

If anyone wants to throw out end of season awards categories , go ahead and we'll debate them on the podcast!
Examples:
Worst Interviewer
Best Performance
Best use of a replica WWE Championship Belt
etc.
Reply to this
Worst interviewer..JACOB LUSK,for his stupid comments...epecially after he sang "Man In The Mirror", where he implied that if we didn't vote for him, we needed to look at ourselves in the mirror..oh puleeeze!
Reply to this
Chris how about an award for best and worst prediction?
Reply to this
YouDaMan:
Best prediction is easy, that would be me predicting the Lauren-Scotty finale all the way back on our Vegas show on March 6th.
Worst prediction is a good one, we'll save our answer for the show
Any other categories folks? Here's some more:
Best Idol-Related War of Words
Best and Worst Judges' Moments
Worst Use of Time in the Wednesday Finale
Best Duet in the Wednesday Finale
Tightest Pants Ever on Idol

Who the hell is Mr. King Matt?
Reply to this
Nice catch! "Mr. King" is actually Chris Allen. In what is sort of an inside joke, yours truly Matt accidentally called Chris Allen "Chris King" about a half a dozen times in a podcast a couple of years ago. I mistakenly confused his name with Chris King, who was a hockey player for the New York Rangers. William teased me relentlessly about this gaffe.
After he won the title of American Idol, I felt it appropriate to refer to him as "Mr. King" from that day forward.

Have you heard about the CURSE of KRISTY LEE COOK?
Since her presence was felt on Idol, the past THREE winners have been:
David COOK
KRIS Allen
LEE Dewyse
and yes... guess what Scotty's middle name is...
Scotty COOKE McCreery.
Now THAT'S freaky.

To all our great fans who have been emailing me, asking when the final show will be.
It's basically WHEN IT'S DONE!
We want it to be a great one, and we feel it will be worth the wait.
Please keep posted here for details.
BTW, we are recording together as a panel discussion this Sunday
Reply to this
I have really enjoyed the podcast and want to thank Bill, Matt, and Chris for making a wonderful American Idol podcast and keeping it about AI. (I have been watching since the 1st season.)
The roundtable discussion has been my favorite and I look forward to it on the season finale of this podcast.
Question for Matt: Do you think with the wiining (and others) Idol signed to a different record company this year than in years past, it will lead to a better 1st CD and better treatment than has been in the past?
Reply to this
Thanks so much John. The Roundtable is going to be EPIC!

Thank you for keeping us posted. I'm dying to listen to the last podcast right now but I know you need time to get it together.

Hey Everyone, Update Time!
Last night- Matt, Chris, and I recorded a panel discussion for the grand finale radio show.
There were a number of audio problems (dropouts) in the recording, so it wil take a bit to edit completely to get it to our standards, so I'm guessing it will be up and running in about a week.
As mentioned before, It will definitely be worth the wait!
Thanks for being the best podcast listeners on the planet

I hope the listeners enjoy the finale show as much as I enjoyed taking part in it!
