In 2017, Mike embarked on a freelance writing career, which saw him leverage his love of politics and pop culture at The Daily Banter, Nicki Swift, and Pajiba before writing under the TV/Film and Viral verticals for Uproxx from 2020 to 2024. Mike has returned to the Static Media fold, serving as a news editor for Nicki Swift and The List.
