34:04 While I’m in-between producing shows or whatever, enjoy one of the random recordings I’ve been posting on my Spotify feed a little bit before and after the last episode of my podcast, The Midnight Citizen, back in November 2025.
This one I recorded after seeing the much-anticipated film, One Battle After Another, based on Thomas Pynchon’s 1990 book, Vineland.

1:51:45 — Join Mike in the studio for the last time…maybe?
After 15 years and 300 shows, it all ends tonight. Bring out your drink of choice and make a toast with me as I say goodbye to this weird, wonderful podcast that’s been, altogether, not a bad way to document all the ups and downs of a random guy’s life in this world.
Hear all about the show’s origins, the various stops-and-starts along the way, and, in the true spirit of randomness that The Midnight Citizen’s all about, take some hard digressions with me into an exploration of a wide variety of topics, including the surprising thing Filmmaker Kevin Smith and OC Bomber Timothy McVeigh have in common, pre-Star Wars George Lucas movies, fertility clinic waiting rooms, and a lot more!
This is a jam-packed final episode that I prepared for very little and recorded LIVE, so anything could…and did…happen, like the cat unplugging the mic and camera for a little minute, and two surprise, special guests who dropped in like I was doing a 70’s Television Special!

Mike listened to podcasts in the early days of the new media’s life, but didn’t find the things he wanted in it. Until he heard The Overnightscape Underground, here was the thing he was looking for, and by finding that thing, he found a community.
Late-night rambles on multiple topics were definitely in his wheelhouse; things were just getting interactive at this time online, and Mike thought this was the time to launch The Midnight Citizen.
Since 2010 and now at 300 episodes, Mike has pushed forth into the cool night air a legacy of monology that is uncompromised. As the citizen finally goes to bed, you are welcome to check out the next chapter in the person’s life.
Long live The Midnight Citizen, he’s not dead, just as always, taking a long-deserved break.
