Love the reasonable and steady take Mike provides on our favorite team. He’s got a lot of love for the Blazers but gives it to you straight. Def has helped me know so much more about the players and the game.

I don’t have time to watch all the games, but as a long-time Blazer fan I can catch up on things with this excellent podcast. Mike is informative and engaging, and seems like a nice fellow in real life. You should check out the podcast!

I’ve been listening to The Pass First Guard for the past five years, and I can confidently say that Mike has the skill and polish of a true professional sports journalist! Among all the Locked On podcasts I follow, Mike is easily the most entertaining and enjoyable to listen to. As a solo host, he has a rare talent for breaking down basketball in a way that’s engaging for hardcore fans while still being accessible to those with just a casual interest in the game. His insights, storytelling, and delivery make every episode a must-listen. Keep it up, Mike—you’re absolutely crushing it! 🙏🏻

If you’re looking for exaggerated hot takes and rage bait topics, you’ll be disappointed. If mild mannered, well informed, and media literacy focused analysis is more your speed you will be right at home.
