I love Mickey’s takes. I see theater quite regularly and when I’m in the UK, I try to see as much as possible while I am there. I enjoyed listening to Mickey’s takes on the performances I’ve seen after I’ve seen them to enrich my understanding and experience. Thank you for your hard work!
Beautifully observed and articulate - love MickeyJo
Always love his observations and the way he expresses himself and his views - insightful - well thought out and impressive.
Love MJ!
As someone who works in theatre I am always so grateful to MickeyJo for his work and insights. They are positive without being flimsy.

I love MickeyJo on YouTube, so when I found out videos were going to be released in a podcast format I got happy. Now I can listen to all my favorite content while working on other stuff that will require my eyes on it. I still watch the videos when I have the time to, trust. Love you MickeyJo!
