Mike has become a household name by dominating the world of "picking," a place where treasure is mined in old barns, crumbling sheds, and abandoned warehouses that line America's back roads and main streets. Today, he's at the top of his field, operating as a major voice in the world of interiors and collectibles, not to mention a personal empire that includes retail stores, books, product lines, endorsement deals, and an upcoming CBS sitcom pilot that he developed and executive produces, based on his life as America's most professional scavenger. Topics: In this adventurous interview, Mike and I discuss why he fell in love with the art of "picking", how he began working in television, and some of the craziest treasures he has ever come across. Tune in... Fun Facts: Mike began treasure hunting at the age of 6. Before dedicating his career to picking, Mike was a competitive cyclist. Due to his extensive travels, Mike has logged up to 60,000 per year in his cargo van. SLTV and I would like to dedicate this episode to entrepreneurship and discovery.
