So... why did Mike leave The Download?

Mike was always my favorite on the Download for keeping Dale on topic and challenging his opinions. Felt like the perfect foil to Dale’s energy.

Wonder if Kyle Petty had anything to do with this?

I enjoyed how Mike could get Dale riled up. Some of the best clips came from Mike getting Dale all twisted off, lol

hard for Dale to unpack a race every week when hes on vacation for a month and there are guests hosting his pod every week

Cause fans can't stand him on a mic

Sorry Frat Mike, but it’s much better without you.

Hadn’t been the same since. Hardly any good guest interviews anymore

Dale Jr said it best during that Hamlin/Chastain debate. He said Mike lost all credibility because he didn’t think they touched. Even though there’s a video clear as day that they touched. Everyone stopped caring what he thought at that point

It was an excellent question, and I appreciate the answer. However, that doesn't prevent me from missing the way things used to be when Mike was still on the show. I do hope he's happier now though.

I think Mike was awesome on that show.

Really miss Mike on the show. Not that it’s bad now, just no where near the same.

I remember that episode 😳 That download hit the wall hard

DJD is so much better without him let’s be real

I enjoyed this episode

Yea but I stopped watchin cause you left Mike. I enjoyed your input in the conversations but I get you wanted to focus on the business.

Who cares

I was in alignment with ya 😂😅😅😂

This show was excellent tons of information that I did not know and the show is Great with or without Mike on it just to be able to listen to the lessons and advice that everybody on this show has is absolutely a fantastic experience thank you much🙏
