This week, Mickey is back with a solo episode to discuss his most anticipated night(s) of the year: Rufus Du Sol at MSG! Join Mickey as he details how he spontaneously ended up at a second night of the concert after receiving a free ticket, scamming MSG security into letting him onto the floor, and inevitably ending up front row. He reflects on the emotion of seeing his favorite artists in one of the world's most iconic venues, staying sober to fully enjoy the show, his thoughts on the Innerbloom fans, and, of course, how much the music means to him.

As the night continues, so does the story. After missing an event, Mickey heads to the Magic Hour Rooftop to do some networking and ends up befriending a group of law students, including Paul, the hot Asian with the nice chest, a straight who he fell in love with. The group eventually makes its way to Flaming Saddles, the only gay bar Mickey likes, during Pride Weekend, and the debauchery ensues—starting with a flight attendant becoming a new friend and ending with a strange encounter in the bathroom.

Stay tuned until the end of the episode for a first-glance review (aka analysis based on TikTok concert footage) of the tours Mickey will be attending, his anticipation and excitement for the Eternal Sunshine Tour, and his thoughts on Pitchfork's scathing review of the Chris Brown album.

This week Mickey is back with a solo story-time episode, and this one is absolutely unhinged.

After kicking things off with a recap of his grandfather's self-inflicted DMV and registration-renewal chaos, plus his own battle with canceling a mountain of streaming subscriptions, Mickey dives into what everyone came for: an unbelievable story about an ex.

In this mind-boggling tale, Mickey recounts a surprise interaction with a manipulative and deeply unstable ex who suddenly resurfaces with an attempt to extort money from him. As the story unfolds, so does a wild history of lies, scams, and behavior so outrageous it sounds like it's been clipped from a Lifetime movie. Not to be confused with Hot Chocolate, who would never do such a thing, Mickey recounts this ex's colorful past of lunacy, including but not limited to killing his own father for the plot. This is a story you definitely don't want to miss, as this episode explores one of the most bizarre people Mickey has ever encountered.
