Amazing. Congratulation, guys.

LOL! That was awesome!
Great show!
June 9th, 2008 at 4:38 am
Cool. A first official Mahalo daily. Looking good to be back on track.
June 9th, 2008 at 4:39 am
Great late birthday present. Awesome episode…really close to home for me…I used to go to Santa Monica pier when I was younger. I really love Mahalo Daily in fact I actually got my birthday cake from a place I found out about in one of Veronica’s episodes, Vanilla Bake Shop, an absolutely awesome place to get cake! Absolutely love that Montage
June 9th, 2008 at 4:40 am
The ending was hilarious! You guys work really well together. Congrats :D I’m looking forward to more episodes.
June 9th, 2008 at 4:48 am
Very slick! Well done guys. I look forward to tomorrow.
June 9th, 2008 at 5:13 am
Great episode! Very amusing! :)
June 9th, 2008 at 5:18 am
Great 1st Episode for Leah!
Except I think Mahalo Daily forgot to remove Veronica Blemont’s name in the logo during the credits?
June 9th, 2008 at 5:51 am
Great show, Leah. Can’t wait til tomorrow. I always wanted to see Santa Monica Park. Found it funny and informative. Leah and Lon are a GREAT team.
See you guys tomorrow.
June 9th, 2008 at 5:52 am
Wow. Is it just me or did Leah’s abilities go up about 200% from her last one to this first ‘official’ daily.
Great pick, mahalo!
June 9th, 2008 at 6:24 am
good game
June 9th, 2008 at 7:04 am
That was fun… Good premiere!
The ending was great… Lon’s quite amusing.
June 9th, 2008 at 7:30 am
Keep it up….funny and informative.
June 9th, 2008 at 7:40 am
LOL! These two are great together! Very funny and informative. Makes we want to take e trip out there just to experience it first hand. Keep up the great work. Will be logging in first thing tomorrow to see the latest. P.S. I really liked the electrical facts about the new wheel. Aren’t LED”s great!
June 9th, 2008 at 7:42 am
That was great!!! Definitely helped start my day with a smile.
See ya tomorow.
June 9th, 2008 at 8:26 am
very funny !
but hey, where is the little “With Leah D’Emilio” plate falling down from the Mahalo Daily logo ?
June 9th, 2008 at 9:08 am
Enjoyed the episode. I look forward to the future.
June 9th, 2008 at 9:16 am
woop woop! leah is more fun than i thought!
June 9th, 2008 at 9:19 am
Wow… Just… Wow…
I mean, that was the first episode she’s done?
If there was any doubt that the right person won, just watch this video again. Seriously. It was as if she’d been the host of this show and had worked with Lon for years before today.
Outstsanding job!
June 9th, 2008 at 9:22 am
I love these 2. Great episode.
June 9th, 2008 at 9:27 am
Great episode. Definitely feels like a fresh start, and still informative.
June 9th, 2008 at 9:29 am
nice, love it already!! GOOD stuff
June 9th, 2008 at 9:37 am
Awesome job you guys! Great team, great show, tons of fun….and as always, I look forward to starting the work day with Mahalo Daily.
Thanks!!!
June 9th, 2008 at 9:38 am
As I heard said on Woot! one day, “I have full access to the man on the street at any time, and there’s a reason I don’t ask him for his opinion.” Or something like that. Those quotes are really just there for show.
Once past that though, not too bad. It’s taking about a day to load though.
June 9th, 2008 at 10:33 am
Good episode. Leah will do a great job it seems!
June 9th, 2008 at 10:36 am
This was an enjoyable first episode. I could have done without the references to the Mahalo VLog contest, but I guess they needed to make a transition.
June 9th, 2008 at 11:01 am
Great chemistry. You guys are gonna take this show to a whole new level. Awesome work!
June 9th, 2008 at 11:18 am
Good times!! Loved it! :)
June 9th, 2008 at 11:41 am
Leah, Lon, MahaloDaily…a great fit! MD is now on my morning lineup:-)
June 9th, 2008 at 11:46 am
Okay, that was awesome!
Great work everyone!
June 9th, 2008 at 11:53 am
Good morning! Thanks for watching!
Looks like everyone has been enjoying the first episode so far!
Remember, if you have suggestions for show topics, please let us know! Have a great day!
Ciao!
June 9th, 2008 at 11:56 am
Amazing chemistry. Can’t wait till tomorrow. What a team!
June 9th, 2008 at 12:22 pm
Total fun. Awesome!
June 9th, 2008 at 12:36 pm
Wow. Leah was pretty amazing during the contest, but she’s even better now.
June 9th, 2008 at 12:46 pm
I’m more convinced now than ever that the Mahalo Daily team made the right choice when they voted Leah on to the show last week.

Too bad that Leah got chosen. I think that she looks phony somehow and that Mahalo isn’t as fun as before.
Well anyway, thanks for the previous episodes and the best of luck in the future.
June 9th, 2008 at 12:59 pm
Leah’s been my choice since early on, though I’ve been waiting for her to truly let her hair down. I think she showed her abilities in her video parody and now that the competition is over (the pressure is off) she is free to be herself. I thoroughly enjoyed today’s episode and am looking forward to many many strange, interesting, informative, and fun shows to come from Leah and Lon (a highly entertaining and underappreciated personality).
Thanks to Jason and Crew for bringing us this high-quality, professional content in a slap-dash, YouTube, DIY content environment.
June 9th, 2008 at 1:08 pm
It was good. I especially like the chemistry between these two. I think this transition period was necessary as some people only started watching MD due to Beronica Velmont and her spectacular quirkiness. She is going to be a hard act to follow but I think you have the right person. With the contest it allowed for a “bumper” of sorts to allow for a graceful transition and to allow us to get to know Leah before we invest more time into MD.
L&L for the win.
June 9th, 2008 at 1:16 pm
Way to go Leah and Lon! I knew from the beginning that Leah would be an awesome choice. My g/f even said she’d start watching now that Leah’s the host. :)
June 9th, 2008 at 1:21 pm
The episode was okay. Best part was the actual interview about the ferris wheel. The first part where she was asking people, “do you know where you are?” had me thinking “WTF kind of question is that?” I also have no idea what Leah said before that short glowing moment.
I think Leah will make a fine host, but they seriously need to stop with the “Vlog Idol” references. Just give me a good solid episode, like the capoeira one. Don’t want to come off too negative here because I think everything is still on track. It would certainly be a little more fun to have Leah’s name in the title where it belongs.
June 9th, 2008 at 2:27 pm
cute!
good job
June 9th, 2008 at 2:28 pm
Great first episode! The chemistry between L&L completely works. We got the right host for sure.
Lon and Leah are clearly the Luke and Leia of the podoverse. ;)
And new futurey solar-powered Ferris wheel FTW!
June 9th, 2008 at 3:52 pm
Leah and Lon,
Funny, yet informational. Great job…Keep it up. I can only see these podcasts getting better and better. You made my day!
June 9th, 2008 at 4:21 pm
Leah and Lon are both a pleasure to watch.
June 9th, 2008 at 4:26 pm
Thanks for picking Leah. I’ve been having a hard time trimming down my podcast list so this makes it much easier to unsubscribe from Mahalo Daily.
June 9th, 2008 at 5:23 pm
I think that Adrian has lost it! What’s the deal with that comment? Are you watching the samething everyone else is watching? :0
June 9th, 2008 at 6:33 pm
Great one Lealon!
**See what I did there, you are the new hip name mashing celebrity couple!) :)**
June 9th, 2008 at 7:23 pm
Cool, fantastic, great team, great future. Mahalo Daily is BACK!
June 9th, 2008 at 9:01 pm
Cool episode. I watch Veronica over at Revesion3’s TekZilla. Thought it was funny to see Veronica’s name in the end credits logo. Need to replace it with Leah and give her an opening credit name. Maybe they’ll make her “earn” it in another episode or something. Awesome podcast.
June 10th, 2008 at 12:12 am
Very nice. I’ve been rooting for Leah from the beginning, and I think she’s going to do very well. No one can replace Veronica, but Leah will make this show her own in short order, and I will be tuning back in every episode. I look forward to getting back to a few Mahalo-centric shows.
June 10th, 2008 at 1:54 am
This was simply hilarious. “Do you know where you are?”
And of course, “the strong silent type.”
Nice to know that the person with such a great sense of humour won. Nicely done.
June 10th, 2008 at 1:56 am
I’ve been hoping Leah would win from day 1. She and Lon did a great job on this episode, but I agree with the others; it’s time to stop with the VLog references.
June 10th, 2008 at 3:17 am
Not good at all. Ever since MD lost Veronica it has lacked creativity and intellect- something that Veronica had.
The Vlog Idol was a joke along with this episode. It reaks of inuendo- the lowest form of comedy. Can we please have jokes and dialogue relevant to the topic?
The writers need to find Leah’s new voice- this comes off as more of a high school production.

Yep, Veronica’s name is still at the bottom of the MD logo on the ending credits. Better get that fixed
June 10th, 2008 at 8:34 am
Did I tell you that I think this was awesome?
June 10th, 2008 at 12:43 pm
Veronica Belmont still has her name on that ending logo, didn’t anyone notice that?
-Randy
June 10th, 2008 at 4:40 pm
Wow, great work. Leah’s amazing, but I think Lon needs to improve his delivery.
June 10th, 2008 at 8:32 pm
Great first podcast ~ Leah is definitely keeping things light and fast and snappy ! With alot of fun in there too !
And I learned a bunch about Santa Monica Pier and the giant wheel so that’s a plus too !
Thanks, Mahalo for choosing the best ! Leah - YAY !
June 10th, 2008 at 9:12 pm
great. I like this team thing.
June 10th, 2008 at 10:52 pm
Good show, very funny!
June 11th, 2008 at 12:27 pm
After 137 revisions, Mahalo Daily is finally out of beta and looking great.
June 11th, 2008 at 1:53 pm
Great show !! Looks Mahalo is back in bussiness…
June 11th, 2008 at 4:36 pm
Just watched this. Have to say I wasn’t sure about the decision to take Leah but this has convinced me. This episode’s a keeper - Leah is gorgeous and funny - very engaging.
