Always a step ahead, Mike Smyth’s two decades as a no-nonsense newspaper columnist gives him a distinct edge that guarantees the show is insightful, informative, and insurgent. From breaking news and developing stories to not letting yesterday’s headlines slip away without a second glance and a bit more scrutiny, The Mike Smyth Show keeps you dialed in and up to date.
