High Pitch Mike was in studio today to announce a revelation. Mike took a lie detector test on the air the other day which concluded he was gay. Mike said he had a meltdown after the show and has been having a rough month or two in his personal life.
Mike asked to play a horrible song in the background for he began his story – “Never felt this way” by Brian MckNight. Back in October, Mike went home to his parents wedding anniversary (where this song was played). Afterwards, he listened to the song and he broke down in his apartment because he felt he would never be able to feel the love conveyed in this song, which was felt by his parents at their party. The song made him feel how alone and empty he is because he has been lying to himself.
So after a whole lame (barely) build up, High Pitch Mike admitted he was gay on the air. Apparently he had come out to Artie beforehand (and other staffers, family and friends). He told Artie in the lobby of the building. Mike said that Artie was very compassionate.
Mike talked about his mother telling him that she would disown him if he was gay. Once he admitted it, he said she was very angry and disappointed but at the end she said that she loved him and wanted him happy.
Artie had a funny joke that went something like: “Today is full of suprises, Mike said he was gay and Langford is going to say the sky is blue.”
Maybe now he can leave Howard 100 and go over to the OutQ channel.
