They built a lot of bridges. Perhaps, one too many...
He only had the one hit...but boy, was it a wonder!
Mike was the keynote speaker at the last large gathering in the United States before the country officially closed for business. His job? Shaking hands--with over a hundred thousand people. Now, after three weeks of self-isolation, he'd like to tell you about it. And then, read a very funny story from his mom's new book.

Or did they...

I listen to the pod cast driving to work in the morning. Thanks Mike.
I didn't see that one coming!
Mike! Another homerun! Love the podcast! Quarantine has me a little down. After this podcast I feel hope. Thanks for your hard work and dedication and bringing to light what an everyday man can accomplish.
..m😇😇😸
I love being responsible for my own safety. I love safety third too.
Thank you for being level headed, honest and speaking for the other side of things that sometimes gets drowned out. I love this podcast and am loving the way I talked about the way I heard it. ❤️
God bless you, Mike🙏
Old Yeller damn near broke me, too.
There are people out there that are hidden gems that inspire us, that go over looked all the time. They are the ones who give us the little push in the right direction to become better people Glad you managed to find one which lead you in your path to greatness.
Thank you Mike. It's time to get living again.
Thank you. This is exactly what I have been saying, as well. ...I am a house painter in Alberta, Canada. No work, no pay. ...and the government won't get tax dollars from me when we move into a cardboard house...
I love this so much. Mostly the way I talked about the way I heard it. We need more of this.
Well we can certainly tell where you get your sense of humor! Good stuff & outside events, where there's a breeze!
Where do I listen to your stories? I'm an American, living in Taiwan, on the Frontline dealing with China's aggression and Corona virus. We are certified organic farmers, growing avocados, citrus, bananas and Turmeric. I like to listen to your podcast while I walk my dog along the canal. There is something reassuring about listening to your straightforward and level headed analogies while surrounded by the mountains and tropical skies. Thank you for keeping it real. I really admire your perspective.
Listening while at work and I also listen in my car. Great podcast!
I call it Banished for the good of the Realm..
Love this podcast. Keep it up, Mike 👍
great podcast
Who so funny definitely entertaining and informative it's a must listen to his whole series
I usually listen to your podcasts while getting ready in the morning -- so naturally, part of your episode is being listened to while I'm...well, doing what your dog did. ☺️ The other time is when I'm folding laundry. Absolutely love your podcasts & book! ♥️
