Mike botched his radio contract, lost his TV contract, and now lives in obscurity with a half-rate podcast as he grouses about everybody he ever worked with. To top it off, he’s a Trump toady. Find someone under 80 to talk about sports.

Mike, Long time fan and I’m happy to see the success of the podcast. I look forward to every new episode. I have to give you credit with your takes on Rizzo, Judge and Grisham early on in the season. They were spot on. My dad and I always talk about your podcast and it’s something that brings us back the days of him driving me around listening to you and Dog. All the best, Frank

Mike, I have followed your work from the 80s and have always thought you had higher standards. However, when you include yourself with frauds like Andy Pettitte and A-Rod who are disgraced, it shows how low of standards you have. Listening to you describe you child’s behavior recently during Super bowl shows lack of moral and dignity in your parenting. They will become punks like Pettitte and A-Rod who will go to any lengths to cheat because they have no morals. Another important point to offer you is you keep repeating yourself meaning half of your podcast time is not worth listening to. Clean up your act. Prolonging each episode just to say you satisfied your requirements to Bet River is basically cheating the audience due to a lackluster effort from you . If you can’t clean it up then give it up. Update: I gave Mike another shot after unsubscribing earlier, you have gotten even worse with repeating same thing over and over again. I couldn’t have said any better than what Mr. Cash posted in the review on May 19, 2024. You need to give it up, your legacy is already down the toilet. What a disgrace you have become for chasing the last few paychecks from Bet Rivers.

I stopped listening to WFAN during the week once Mike and Joe Benigno left. It’s great to have Mike back. Would love to see some guests like Mr. Met, Mink, Eddie C and Dog at some point.

If you like someone who authoritatively restates the obvious (and then repeats it six times) and thinks of himself as a genius (and doesn’t mind telling you), this is the podcast for you.

I love Mike. I grew up with Mike. Sitting in the back of my father’s red Toyota on a snowy day listening to him and dog breakdown Knicks play calling. Summer afternoons hearing screaming matches about turning double plays. Crisp fall Sundays going over NFL matchups. He’s a legend. I was sad to hear him retire from radio, then come back, then leave again. So I was elated he started a podcast. Sadly, I think this horse needs to be put out to pasture. Like watching your favorite fighter take those last three fights after they lost the belt to get some extra zeros in the bank account. The legacy is really starting to get damaged here. Constantly repeating his same point over and over. Pauses that last what feels like days to only come back to a rambling thought. Podcasts release times that are extremely sporadic. You’ll get a playoff game preview an hour before the game. He’ll then go missing for two weeks at the biggest moment in sports. The constant hissing and clicking in the background… not to mention a dog barking here and there. Phone calls where you can’t even hear the person on the line that’s his scheduled guest. High pitch points that crackle your speaker. Now, a year into this, we’re seeing episodes posted under one title of what the content will be, only to have it be the same audio file from four days ago. (Knicks 2024 game six postgame review was just the NFL schedule release podcast reposted. Then didn’t even post a game 7 preview.) I love the guy. I hope he’s got enough in the bank for generations of his family to never work again. That said, unless he desperately needs this Bet Rivers and Casa Migos check. It’s time to turn the microphone off. Love ya Mike. Just can’t see ya fade to black this way. I gotta unsubscribe.

Enough of your nepobaby just give us your take. You were much better when you up and coming, not the arrogant pompous old man you’ve become. Also those blindingly white teeth look stupid and unnatural, just like you

Mike it's a great podcast but whatever is going on with your voice, frog in yoir throat or whatever that is is too distracting too often. Drink some water or something. Take a few second break. It's ok we can wait :) The content is great. No issue there

Mike’s on he’s ready to go!

Mike always brings great commentary on all NY sports! Great analysis and great stories of his famed sports career! Love to hear the old stories of Mike and Dog and their adventures!

Mike is still bringing it and reminds me of the FAN days. Nice to hear someone knowledgeable without the theatrics and drama elsewhere.

I miss the days when you and Chris compared players of yesterday to today’s peds cut that rope bridge how sad it was great folklore for grandparents and kids love the podcast 👍

There’s a clinking sound in background like glasses banging together in the distance. Once u hear it can’t unhear it. Shows great. Always a huge fan.

Mike Really appreciate your comments on Sequan. In another time as a life long Giant fan I would love to keep him. But as we know you must let the man find their reward. With the sole exception of the hated Eagles I will pull for Sequan all the way. Keep up the great work. Manny New Hampshire

Always a great show,Mike usually on the money on how the NFL playoffs will play out. No different this year , spot on. Could get to like the guy, Shame he is such a Woke Follower and not a leader. Outspoken guy like him u would think he be man enough to reject such drivel, Charles was certainly right and not kidding on that observation.

Been listening from the beginning. Your show actually made my commute enjoyable! Whether it’s the Yankees, college hoops or the NFL, I like your take.

Mike, I’ve enjoyed your intelligent and entertaining perspective on so many topics, from sports to politics to current events…whatever is dominating the headlines. I am thrilled to be able to tune into your podcasts on demand as you continue to provide the best insight.

Mike seems to put almost no effort into this- offers shallow and obvious opinions, repeats points from episode to episode and sounds like a kid who is trying to fake his way through a book report after he didn’t read the book.

People who truly understand sports know that Mike is the best sports talk show broadcaster in history. His knowledge is second to none and for the most part was spot on throughout his historic run. WFan will never be the same. Thanks for the memories Mike

Wfan has no one besides boomer who has opinion I respect

I don’t listen to every show. Just the ones where I see he’s going to be talking about what interests me.

If you don’t think New York is a good place to live you can clear out! Don’t let the door hit you in the fanny on the way out.

I wish mike comeback to the fan is not the same anymore without him

My only wish is that the podcast was an hour and five days a week.

It is a good listen, most of the information is accurate and entertaining. But in terms of getting an advertised ‘instant reaction’ to the game a day later I would not considered timely, and have heard all the takes by the time this is aired.

I grew up listening to Mike in the 90s and 2000s and feel so lucky that I had that experience. No radio show will ever compare to the magic that was Mike and The Mad Dog during that era. It was Sports Radio the way it should be.

Mike invented the art of sports talk radio with christopher russo. He is as traditional as the Yankees Knicks Giants and Rangers in N.Y. I always look forward to listening to him and getting his opinions. The GOAT

Miss him dearly on WFAN.

The best sports talk hosts of all time.

Every time I delete this podcast in anger, I last about a week… then I need to know what Mike thinks —- I’m brainwashed since 1987. Love ya Mike

Man listening to mike brings me back to the 2000s when I first started listening to him and dog. He gives great perspective and is still an enjoyable listen.

Listen just to see who Mike picks and BET THE OPPOSITE! Guaranteed to win! #Tankmush

Miss Mike driving home. He’s honest and like his knowledge of sports.

Let’s be honest. Let’s be honest. Let’s be honest.

Mike hasn’t missed a step and this forum, without callers or restrictions, only makes him better. He is direct, candid, honest, and honorable without the high school locker room nonsense of current sports radio. Thank god he’s still producing content and callin’ it like he sees it.

The best to ever do it certainly hasn’t lost anything off his fastball. It’s an on demand version of what would be the best part of his radio show, the opening monologue. He takes the one or two biggest stories and gives you 20-45 minutes on it. For as long as I can remember when something big happened in NY sports, or sports in general you couldn’t wait until 1pm to hear Mikes Take. That’s what this is. As anything the big guy does if you like Mike you’ll love his podcast, if you hate Mike, you’ll complain about it but you’ll still listen. Keep up the good work and check out my podcast “Locked Up Sports”

Mike Francesa is the preeminent sports commentator, personality and historian. Ever since Mike left WFAN, there has been a void that cannot be filled. I grew up listening to him and Mad Dog and had the best memories of him breaking down a Knicks or Yankees playoff run. I’m so glad he has his own podcast, where he can talk about anything that interests him. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!!

Best ever

Love to hear mike again especially his instant tales.FYI it’s spelled unequaled (podcast description)

Unfiltered????? Or just contrary to be noticed?

Just found this Podcast (a little late) and I am so happy to hear Mike again! I was searching for him a year and a half ago and gave up. I have really missed his take on the NFL and especially this season with my Philly Eagles doing so well!

Mike, Welcome back! Mike is the best!

Best in the business! That’s it thats the review.

Mike brings his decades of experience to every show. A great way to catch up on what’s going on in sports and hearing Mike’s unique perspective and opinions.

As honest and objective as ever. This old man is a breath of fresh air!

Mike still dislikes the Jets

Love Mike. I grew up on him and Dog when I grew up on the Island. His voice, honesty, and analysis are the absolute best.

His opinions are from a lot of experience. Don’t always agree but 99% he’s on the mark.

Without callers to banter with Mike has completely fallen off a cliff. This podcast is mostly terrible. Mike is either pontificating obvious points to himself or talking over the line guests he secures. And the guests he gets are straight out of the 90’s at best. No one wants to hear from Bernie Williams, Joe Namath or Bobby Valentine anymore.

Mike is the man when it comes to sports talk no question. He can be incredibly wrong on takes(Darnold, etc.) but he is never afraid to have a take and is a pioneer.
