This week, Mickey returns for a solo sit-down at an ungodly hour and on no sleep. He talks through the return of Catey Shaw and seeing her live for the first time in 742 years; his supposed “situationship” that turned into just a hookup; starting a nonprofit dog-sitting business; how he fell in love with a hookup on night one; and his triumphant first dip into stand-up comedy — including an unexpected, serendipitous run-in with Hot Chocolate.

This week, Mickey’s back with a solo episode to rant about an array of topics, including a conversation about ordering ahead at Starbucks with his sisters, why he can’t stand Dunkin’ Donuts, following the GPS in the wrong direction, and his grandmother’s accusations against the Pulse Pounding listeners involving robocalls, identity theft, and a potential hidden fortune. He also talks about the cancellation of The Barber and, of course, takes a deeper dive into the lore of The 5th Guy.

That’s it — that’s the description. Listen or don’t.

Does anyone even read this?

This week, Mickey returns with a solo episode full of chaos. After ordering a late-night box from Taco Bell, he discovers that his Uber Eats driver is making the delivery on a bicycle—riding more than 10 miles to pick up and drop off the order. How long does it actually take someone to bike 10 miles? Tune in to find out.

Mickey also dives into the madness of workplace conversations, from coworkers discussing their menstrual cycles on the Flo app (which he’s just discovered) to another coworker accidentally calling the police on herself after her child got ahold of her nicotine vape.

Then, he shares not one but two DL encounters—because apparently exposing them is trending now. First, a DL from Mickey’s past who refuses to accept that Mickey is strictly gay and not interested in sleeping with his wife. Second, a tall, dark, and handsome DL who is—wait for it—24.

Stick around until the end of the episode for a deep dive into the comeback of Danity Kane and fresh releases from Demi Lovato, Miguel, Ari Abdul, and Psylosia.

This week, Mickey sits down with Brendan Abernathy, a talented singer-songwriter who, earlier this year, found himself at the center of a viral online hate train. After a performance clip of his song “Married In A Year” went viral, Brendan quickly discovered that much of the feedback wasn’t positive. Thirty-three million views later—after countless rude comments, harassment, and even threats—the pair discusses what it feels like to be on the receiving end of an overwhelming wave of internet hate, its effects on mental health and creativity, the reactions and opinions of those around you, and how to keep moving forward.

Mickey and Brendan also dive into the release of his new album The Kid Who Got It All Wrong. Brendan opens up about his creative process, how much of his music is autobiographical, how he draws inspiration from others' experiences, his upcoming series of EPs (which will be recorded in various national parks), performing over 700 live shows, and so much more!

‘The Kid Who Got It All Wrong’ is out now, on all streaming platforms!

This week, Mickey is back with a solo episode of unfiltered stories and honest reflections.

First up, he’s detailing the wildest encounter he’s ever had in the Planet Fitness showers—as well as why Planet Fitness remains his gym of choice.

Then, it's time for closure. Mickey opens up about the final chapter with Hot Chocolate, breaking down the end of the cyclical relationship and his personal tips for staying strong while maintaining no contact.

Don’t miss the music talk! Stick around to hear Mickey’s takes on new releases from Eric Zayne, Kim Petras, Hayley Williams, Leven Kali, and of course, the iconic Mariah Carey!

This week, Mickey sits down for a calm, cool, and collected solo episode. Why so calm? Because he’s high — and struggling to get his thoughts out.

Listen along as Mickey shares his thoughts on Charlie Kirk and the people celebrating his death (which he finds super weird), the hypocrisy on both ends of the political spectrum, taking a break from drinking, navigating difficult relationships, dealing with a lack of reciprocal support, and the difference between perception and reality. He also talks about attending a Savannah Bananas game and his week-long concert extravaganza, where he saw Kesha, The Weeknd, Rüfüs Du Sol, and Rose Gray!
