    Hilarious show, awesome interviewer, interesting guests!
    I’m moving to LA in a month and I found this podcast. It’s really giving me the ins and outs of the entertainment industry all while making me laugh! Mike has fun conversations and it’s cool to hear stories from people with such diverse backgrounds and professions. Not to mention, it’s calming and reassuring to hear such successful people speak about their struggles. I’m into it!!

    If you’re not listening you’re missing out!!
    As a former guest this may seem biased, BUT I can say without a doubt that Mike creates the perfect environment for his guests to GET REAL and dish the honest advice actors are aching to hear. This show is funny, interesting, and insightful about the crazy industry that is show business! And he is relentless in making sure we get to the heart of the matter!

    Fantastic Interviewer
    Mike is a terrific interviewer. It never feels like he sticks to a rigid script or format, he listens and asks interesting and relevant questions, and all of his guests sound relaxed. If you care or are interested about the acting or film industry, or about life in Los Angeles, or just like to hear people’s stories, hit subscribe.

    Good pod!
    Box is a great host. His guests are pretty cool too. I’m always amazed he can convince these well known guests to come do a podcast in what is clearly his apartment.
  • LaurenChappa
    Hooray!
    What a great podcast. Everyone's story is different so it's always entertaining and the format that Mike set is great. I love hearing about the rituals everyone has. It's seriously my favorite part. 10/10 stars.
  • Drewjgraves
    Good fun
    Mike makes it fun, and you can tell he loves it. If you are interested in "makin' it in the biz" you gotta give this a listen! His guests are always so open and giving. Great stuff.

    As a podcast virgin, I never thought listening to people talk could hold my attention for this long. But Mike is such a good host. He's hilarious and his guests clearly have a blast. These episodes are so fun & super entertaining. Must subscribe.

    OBSESSED
    I am totally obsessed with this podcast! I love all the guests and how the interviews go. I've been wanting to start writing and currently reside in LA. This has given me so much insight into how it's actually done and gives me motivation to start! Love it!
  • TrevorCopter
    I ❤️ Mike
    Mike is always so excited to talk to his guests that it makes listening to the podcast such an enjoyable experience. Definitely recommend this podcast, especially for comedy fans, but really for anyone!
  • KyleHelf
    Love it.
    Mike is a solid interviewer who does a great job drawing some interesting stories out of his guests. The caliber of talent he has on the show continues to rise, can’t wait to see who will grace the show next. MAYBE OBAMA??? Prolly...

    Very good interviews
    Box gets great guests and has them talk about things they don't usually talk about in detail. Some good eps are Scotty Auks and Hayes & Sean
  • Guicey
    THIS PODCAST RULES!
    These interviews are incredible! Every one I have heard is fantastic! Right up there with Maron, You rule Mike!
  • MajorProgress
    Great Interviews!
    Mike as a great way of unarming people and allowing them to open up about their careers and reflect on where they came from, where they are and what may be ahead for them in the future. I work in the "industry" as a freelance cinematographer and photographer and a have a lot of actor and improv friends grinding away doing their thing here in City of Angels. These interviews give great insight into the processes of "making it", the journey if you will. The stories are uplifting, encouraging and honest. No two stories are alike and everyones path is starkly different, even though you come across some common themes, influences and group people have been a part of. It all comes down to hard work, presistence and sometimes a little bit of right place and right time. In general I enjoy how Mike conducts the interviews, the questions he asks and the variety of talent he has had on. I learn something on every podcast and I laugh out load many times during an interview. Keep up the fantastic podcast Mike and I wish you nothing but continued success. -Major

    Keep coming back to Box and his guests do to the fact it's both hilarious and insightful at the same time. If you haven't started at the first ep. do so now so you can feel the connection from the start! Keep doin your thing Mike!
  • Angeleno home brewer

  • Klubb214
    Great for fan of comedy and/or good conversation
    I’ve really been enjoying this podcast so far. Box is not only an affable guy and asks great questions as well. I’ve heard many of these guests on other shows and they rarely ever let their guards down like they do with Box. I’m looking forward to getting through more of the back catalogue. Keep up the good work!
  • Teamnaij

    Ha Ha Ha
    Box Angeles is my favorite podcast to hear about the journey comedians take to make it in the world of show biz. It's fun, entertaining and always insightful. Mike is a real doll.
  • NotMarinCounty
    A slice of intelligent wit
    Box Angeles gives an honest and hilarious glimpse into who makes up the crazy world of entertainment in Los Angeles. Even to someone who isn’t part of the scene, or trying to make it in comedy or acting, learning more about the people that have us clutching our sides and laughing to the point of tears with their twisted and brutally honest view on the world, is an interesting insight into their experience; a gift that Mike delivers in each episode.
  • Hermie C
    Motivating, Insightful, Inspiring
    Mike is a great guy and I happen to know him through the comedy community. You can sense he has a genuine passion to pursue his dream in a career of the arts, and he has a way of having the guests open up that is very insightful. Mike also makes sure that the episode doesn’t end up being a conversation without any purpose or a sense of direction. Box is the fresh voice we need to keep our ears and brains informed with the artists we admire today.

    Midwest Humor Succeeds in LA
    This guy is classic and hilarious. His guests come from all walks of life and always find something to relate to Mike with to keep the conversation flowing. His bit about beer is part of my favorite, especially when he introduces the LA folk to some of the beset Midwest beer. We have good stuff here in Sota, where Mike was born and raised, and I love how he's sharing it with the LA Peeps. I'll keep listening if Mike keeps producing. Get it Box.
  • Andrew Heder
    Mike keeps it rull

  • MI Patrick
    A great listen
    Mike, is such a great host! He has such a great attitude and demeanor with his guests, it makes listening fun, as if you’re part of the journey.
  • Tommy Du.

  • stephaniediane
    Love this podcast!
    This podcast is oodles of fun. Box is absolutely hilarious!
  • John VanLandschoot
    Wow! I love the spontaneity
    This will be my first review...ever. This podcast came up in my recommendations. I can't believe how intimate this podcast is. You can see a person on a late show and know nothing about a person. If you listen to this podcast you get a real sense of the guest's personality. I'm jealous that "Box" gets to spend so much time with such interesting people. The conversation seems so natural. There is plenty of dumb chatter, but that chatter seems to foster a real comfort with the guest. I'll be checking out this podcast again.
  • AnthonySeyz
    Listen to It
    Great podcast with insights to great comedians in the Los Angeles area. Highly recommended.
  • idontcare316
    Great podcast!
    I love this podcast. Mike is a great host & all of the guests are phenomenal. Two thumbs up!
  • Up North Fan
    I'm hooked
    I can't get enough of this podcast. Much like the best late night hosts, Box does such a great job of choosing his guests, putting them at ease and engaging them in some of the best conversation out there. Love the format, the BAQ and the "choose your adventure" endings. So, what three words would I use to describe what Box does? GENERATES SMILES WEEKLY
  • KariW818
    BOX = Hilarious
    I love Box Angeles. The guests are smart, and hilarious. I love that they don't seem to have a problem putting Box in his place; he seems to love it too.
  • The Wonder Kid
    Awesome
    Great talks with great comedy people that a novice might yet not be familiar with. Fun to listen to on a long drive or at work.

  • Schmidt08
    FIVE Stars
    I don't normally listen to podcasts but Box Angeles is the definition of hilarious! You will find yourself getting excited each week. The guests talk about real things and it is so insightful on the entertainment industry. Who doesn't love that! Highly recommend it, you will NOT be disappointed!
  • CupOfConfetti
    Super entertaining AND useful
    This podcast really spotlights all the different avenues people take in hopes of finding success in the entertainment industry. BUT on top of that it’s super entertaining throughout each ep. So good!

    Thinking Outside The Box
    I love this podcast! Box is so genuine he feels like an old buddy and every week it’s like he’s bringing in a new friend for me to meet and hang out with. It’s a lot of fun! Each episode Box mentions a new beer he and his guest are drinking. When that happens, I pause the podcast, run to the store and buy that beer so I can be on the same page as them. It feels more like hanging out that way. I don’t live in Los Angeles so I can’t drink every beer he has but I try to make it work.

    Warning: Hilarity Will Ensue
    Ever wondered what it would be like to live in Minnesota and struggle through the harsh winter conditions? Didn't think so........ Ever wonder what it would be like to move your life to LA and mingle with celebrities on the regular? Of course you do. This is a hilarious and insightful podcast worthy of your time - Box gives you the best hour of your week (or 45 minutes if you listen on 1.5x) Hailing from central Minnesota, Box gives an unpretentious view of life in LA as an up and coming writer/actor/beer drinker/podcaster. The rants are hilarious, the beer always cold (I would think) and you can always count on laughing until your stomach is sore. Do yourself a favor and subscribe to this cast. The guests are always interesting and the conversations always candid. 5 stars and now time to crack a beer and listen to the new cast.
