“Been listening to your podcast for just over year. Some really entertaining shows. Very good interviewer. Just bought my first Palma Pasta lasagna. It was excellent. Keep up the great work.”

“Mike, love your podcast and you do ask the tough questions.
One thing that did not get addressed with Steve re. Akim Aliu issue:
Steve kept saying he knew too much from his sourcing. Well is it possible his sources from the hockey community were racist? To me he used this excuse to escape...”Read full review »
“A great guy who doesn’t steal the stoplight from his Guests. Mike asks the questions that you want answered as he delivers the Real Talk. I’m surprised at his ability to get such good Guests. Keep up the good work.”
“Toronto Miked provides the best 'weekly' ( ha) podcast, if you are remotely interested in radio, sports media, Toronto music etc. A treasure”Read full review »

“Mike I just loved going back into the memory bank listening this past week with Tom Jocik and Mike Cooper. I didn’t even mind I was now a white haired hippie. 😊❤️☮️ ✌️”
“Mike knows what’s what in the Toronto media-scape, especially all things radio. He does his homework and research before every interview and has often surprised his guests with his knowledge - some “this is your life” moments for sure (kids…look up the reference!!) The shorter episodes are the...”Read full review »

“I Like Mike and this podcast but sometimes might be respectful to listeners to provide some background on guests. For example, we couldn’t figure out who the guest identified only as Elvis was. I know this is not CBC but ….”

“I've been listening since day one and Mike always delivers great content! He's become a strong interviewer, he's Toronto's answer to Marc Maron, his guests are the who's-who in Toronto media and celebrity (which appeals to me) and he always asks the right questions that...”Read full review »

“Hi Toronto Mike’d. Thank you for continuing to entertain us with episodes during COVID. I enjoyed your episode when you checked in with your sponsors. I would love to hear from them again especially their opinions on the government programs that have been rolling out to try and help businesses. I...”Read full review »

“Excellent program from a pioneer in podcasting since 2012. Mike has the trust of his guests that places them in a comfort zone for a conversation instead of an interview. Each episode has a great flow. I highly recommend this podcast!!!”
“Toronto Mike is a very likable “regular guy”. I love his style and his enthusiasm. It’s great to catch up on what many of the “cultural icons” of my youth are doing now.”
“Great guests and an inquisitive host make this a must listen for any Canadian interested in our media landscape. I listen as a former broadcaster, sports fan and gossip. Mike is enough of an insider to know what to ask and enough of an outsider to not know what he shouldn’t ask.”
“I know for certain that this is an amazing podcast. I know this because I’ve never herd of or cared to hear speak 95% of the people interviewed. Still, I listen to every single podcast pretty much. Barring the podcast app doesn’t mess up my order. Really enjoy the Kick out the jams. Get Anna...”Read full review »

“I love the insider stories that Mike brings out on this podcast -- very interesting for those of us that have lived in Toronto for a while and know the media personalities.
I will admit that I skip some of these episodes (depending on guest), but typically listen almost every week.”

“When I discovered Toronto Mike several years ago, I was immediately drawn to his down to earth personality, his natural inquisitiveness when interviewing his guests, and his ability to get them to open up in a relaxed basement setting in his home.
While my main interest was in the sports media...”Read full review »

“Mike does a great job of talking comfortably with people that he has just met. He does a great job of creating a quick rapport and that shows in some of the witty banter he has with his guests.”
“Excellent podcast for anyone who grew up in the GTA during the 90s/00s. I love the range of guests and the topics discussed. The host has a very soothing voice, I think he pops a valium before each episode!”

“For someone who does this podcast as a hobby, Mike is able to interview a surprising number of Toronto media personalities. He obviously has developed a good reputation with many in the Toronto media. He is very persistent when contacting possible guests and never takes "maybe" for an...”Read full review »
“If you are interested in some "inside baseball" with respect to the Toronto radio scene, this podcast is a must listen. Thanks Mike!”Read full review »
“Narcissistic rambling with no insight. A man with questionable blogging talent interviews whoever he can find in hopes of the celebrity he believes he thoroughly deserves and the Twitter verification mark that will complete him.”

“This podcast has come an extremely long way since it started, and the early reviews on it. While it started as two pals chatting about local going ons, it’s evolved into a premiere collection of candid interviews with local personalities, with a bias towards radio folk. I don’t think it’s...”Read full review »

“I only listen to a handful of podcasts, but Toronto Mike'd has quickly become my favourite.
The chemistry between Mike and Rosie is great and the subject matter is always natural, fun and interesting. Nothing seems forced, nothing seems awkward... it's just good clean fun.
I'm glad...”Read full review »
“Check out a very clever take by two 30-something bloggers from Toronto. They reconnect to share their thoughts on radio, TV, music, parenting and life in general. They revisit the past with nostalgia and compare opinions on their likes and dislikes. Notable guest appearances make it all the...”Read full review »
