This week, Mike announces his latest side hustle: custom 3D-printed guitar picks—because what every musician needs is a pick made by a guy who loathes geese. Meanwhile, Tony is officially back in the music game with an album dropping this fall and plans to hit the stage again (watch out, Denver!).We go deep on TikTok drumming prodigies, ancient nightmare fuel like 5-foot scorpions and 42-foot snakes, and the terrifyingly casual way psychopaths and sociopaths roam the world. Also: how many people actually get away with murder? Seems like probably a lot.Then it's Gorilla vs. Human—a cultural moment we couldn't ignore. We each take a side, and no, it's not the one you'd expect. Plus: a 43,000-year-old shrub in Tanzania that's still kicking, and a breakdown of the personality differences between Pan troglodytes and Pan paniscus (aka: aggressive war chimps vs peaceful sexual chimps). Trippy stuff!It's chaos. It's curious. It's The Mike and Tony Show.Cheers!m&tPSWe'll be trying some new intro music over the next several weeks. Hit us up in the comments if you hear one you like.

On a snowy Friday night following an 84-degree day (only in Denver, right?), we welcomed back fan-favorite guest, producer, beatmaker, and all-around solid dude—Fat Trak! He brought along some seriously adorable music created by his students, plus he blessed us with two exclusive unreleased tracks he finished just the night before.Tony admits he loves to freestyle to Fat Trak's beats… so naturally, Fat calls him out to drop a verse on the spot. Did Tony deliver? Well, you'll have to listen and judge for yourself. Let us know in the comments!Fat also shares some stories from his recent trip to Japan, where he went digging for records—and explains how those finds are shaping his upcoming release. He opens up about the emotions fueling the project, and then plays a track that left us almost speechless. (C'mon, we're a podcast… we've always got something to say!)This episode was a ride—heart, humor, and straight-up heat. Fat Trak showed up and showed out, letting us get to know him even better in his second visit to The Mike and Tony Show.Oh, and we managed to sneak in some listener-submitted Dad jokes, Fun Facts, and a few other surprises too.Cheers,m&t

This week on The Mike and Tony Show, we kick things off with the daily struggle: waking up late, forgetting everything, and sprinting out the door like your hair's on fire. From there, we dive into Elon Musk's involvement with the new administration, the speed of the internet (and how it determines your video game dominance), and the dark financial hole that is Roblox. We also talk basketball, being the biggest guys in the friend group, and the undeniable truth that short people are way tougher than they look. Then, we salute the legendary Staff Sergeant Lacy McDonald before pondering an age-old mystery: how many cows are in a single hamburger? The answer may disturb you. Speaking of disturbing, we also tackle the weirdest confession ever made on live radio—a guy who has always caught his own poop before it hits the toilet. Yeah, you read that right. Plus, a look at why couples playfully roasting each other is actually healthy.It's a wild ride this week—hit play and hang on!Cheers!m&t
Mike has drama from The Last War Survival Mobile video game affecting his personal life. This sparks a deep dive into the wild world of pay-to-play gamers who drop thousands just to dominate. Meanwhile, Tony is back in the gym, but Mike flexes harder—because apparently, he has three gyms. The guys debate morning vs. evening workouts, the power of coffee motivation, and the benefits of shaking things up with novel exercises.Also on deck: the mind-blowing Telepathy Tapes podcast, where non-speaking autistic individuals communicate through actual telepathy—no joke, this one is insane. They also explore the true definition of love (spoiler: it's all about unity), the absurdity of AI-generated nonsense online, and how identity shapes art. Plus, perfect pitch, viral adults in superhero costumes, and—wait for it—people out here smoking mushrooms and ramen?! The world is officially off the rails.Strap in for another episode of The Mike and Tony Show—packed with laughs, deep thoughts, and the usual ridiculousness!Cheers!m&t

Mike is back in the studio! This week, we take a nostalgic ride down memory lane, reflecting on The Mike and Tony Show's humble beginnings—from recording in a basement that looked like a crime scene to our now-finished studio. We catch up on some wild stories, like past guest Francisco Espinoza tearing his bicep and waiting two days to see a doctor (ouch!).We also dive into the glory days of driving total junkers—Mike's infamous little blue hatchback 323, a car that was given to him for free and then stolen three times, plus the terrifying car crash he somehow walked away from. Tony shares his teenage driving fail, sliding into an intersection and stalling out. Good times!But it's not all laughs—we get into the phases of parenthood, how life changes as your kids grow, and ponder some deep stuff: why are so many powerful people into dark, twisted things? What's the nature of existence? How do planets bloom with life? And how many forms of life could exist out there in the infinite universe?It's a wild ride of stories, laughs, and big questions—don't miss it!Cheers!m&t

The Don Tony Show (6/10/23), hosted by Don Tony and presented by BlueWire. DT takes a dive into CM Punk/ESPN interview which has the anti-Punk media scrambling for cover. Some even attempt to 'work' their paid customers to cover up a year long of agenda driven news. Everyone within AEW from Tony Khan to Colt Cabana refused to comment and have yet to attempt to clear up this mess. Young Bucks and Kenny Omega refuse to speak to CM Punk. Hangman Page' unprofessionalism is on full display. Even ESPN author omits all blame of the Anti-Punk media spreading lies & falsities over the last year. Props to Samoa Joe, who summed up the situation in a very level headed professional way. Tony Khan is also to blame for not stepping up and getting this mess squashed months ago. The outside investigation was nothing more than lawyers trying to prevent lawsuits. Khan needs to start taking control before the next incident happens within their roster. And if he can't, hire or put someone in power who will. DT reviews Friday Night SmackDown for 6/16/23. Jey Uso aligns with Jimmy Uso and superkicks Roman Reigns AND Solo Sikoa.
