Mike was born in the mid 1950s to a Kansas City radio family. He’s addicted to collecting as much music as possible in his life as well as sports, enjoying the outdoors & a healthy lifestyle. He invented the concept of “Treating others with kindness and respect” and hopes to market that concept very soon.

The “Real Deal” is a free-form FM radio show just like it used to be in the late 60's and early 70's! Mike mixes the Oldies and Garage Rock from the late 60's with the Progressive Rock, Fusion and Blues Rock from the 70's. Then he blends in new releases and live cuts, sprinkling in local artists to get a very tasty collection of music that will give you ONE BIG HEAD RUSH!!!!
