About this listen

After 15 years of waking up Central Florida with absurd antics, off-the-wall games, and just the right amount of chaos, Eric and Mike—former hosts of The Big Max Morning Show on Max 98.3 FM—are back and louder than ever with The Eric and Mike Podcast! These two radio renegades have traded the studio clock for total freedom, diving headfirst into Polk County headlines, nostalgic storytelling, and all the weirdness Florida has to offer—now with zero FCC oversight (you’ve been warned).

Eric Michaels, the long-running morning show host and program director with a voice as smooth as buttered lightning, teams up once again with Mike Lee—a standup comedian and comedy club owner (yes, really)—whose brain is basically a grab bag of puns, dad jokes, and unsolicited trivia. Whether they’re playing games, chatting with Sheriff Grady Judd, or just roasting each other for sport, The Eric and Mike Podcast is like your favorite breakfast sandwich: messy, comforting, and guaranteed to start your day with a laugh.

    Grady Judd's "Did Ya Hear Me?" - The Great Turkey Giveaway!
    Nov 21 2025

    In this special Thanksgiving episode, we sit down with Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd for a wide-ranging conversation you won’t want to miss. We dive into the adrenaline-filled world of high-speed police chases, the split-second decisions deputies have to make, and why Sheriff Judd believes in keeping Polk County safe with zero nonsense.

    Then we shift gears into something a little more heartwarming — the Sheriff’s annual Turkey Giveaway, a charity focused on helping families who truly need a hand during the holidays. Sheriff Judd talks about the importance of generosity, accountability, and making sure the right people get the help they deserve.

    Finally, we wrap things up with the most heated debate of all… stuffing vs. dressing, plus our takes on the best ways to cook the perfect Thanksgiving turkey.

    It’s part adrenaline, part heart, part holiday chaos — and 100% Sheriff Grady Judd.
