Favorite Episodes of 2017 The Personal Brand Shows (Episode 82 & Episode 83) — thorough episodes Mike worked hard on and was proud of. The Simplify Show (Episode 91) — 2017 was the year of decluttering mind and space, and this one got a lot of listener feedback from people wanting to do the same. The Dead Show (Episode 95) — a trip to Boston and talking about his favorite band, always an easy, fun one to make. The Irma Show (Episode 106) — storytelling isn't something Mike considered a strength, but this one came together well and got strong positive feedback.
