Mike's been working in radio for the best part of two decades. He’s managed to pay the mortgage, and feed a family, yet they still ask “when are you going to get a proper job?”

Over the years Mike has worked as a journalist, newsreader, producer and presenter, and has shared studios with many of his own heroes from the worlds of stage, screen and politics. Mike's career has included time with a variety of commercial and BBC radio stations. Several times along the way Mike has donned what he calls his ‘serious hat' by working in management but says he's always glad to return to the comfort of an air-conditioned studio and play some top songs!

Nowadays Mike splits his time between radio, lecturing, and spending time with his three wonderful children - Ben, Emily and Lucy. You’ll sometimes hear Mike reading news on Spirit FM, however he’s best known for hosting our Battle of the Boozers competition every Sunday.

What else can we tell you about Mike? Well, he's a Sussex boy born and bred. He's a keen amateur chef and enjoys dabbling in creating French, Italian, and Thai cuisine. Mike doesn't have a favourite song, but he does enjoy all sorts of music from pop through to smooth jazz. The Shawshank Redemption is somewhere in Mike's Top 10, as is the original Star Wars.
