This week on Mike Check, we threw out the scripts, ignored the “don’t ask that” list, and let the conversation go exactly where it wanted to go.

Comedian Saanya Nanda brings sharp international perspective and laughs, while Lex Las Vegas finds himself unexpectedly triggered when Mike asks a question no one ever seems ready for.

Democratic Assembly District 41 candidate Vinny Spotleson — a school teacher and one of the most educated guests we’ve had — sits down and lets Mike ask everything he’s ever wanted to ask a Democrat, including the now-infamous question:
“What day do trans people get trans rights?”

No dodging. No spin. Just real answers and honest discussion.

Republican Congressional District 4 candidate Cody K. Whipple drops the canned political responses, opens up, and talks like a regular guy — not a press release — proving what happens when politicians stop performing and start being human.

We’re also joined by CPS system survivor, author, and media influencer Malibu Dallas, who shares his story and how he’s actively fighting the system to help others who grew up inside it.

Comedy, politics, trauma, education, and one question that changed the room — this episode is uncomfortable, honest, funny, and exactly why Mike Check doesn’t do safe conversations.
