Mike saying he was ok at wrestling and went to penn state is insane. That’s crazy. His work ethic and standards must be insane.
Hardly anyone that's really good at something will admit it! That's one way you can tell he's for real.
When you get humbled by top talent only then can you fully appreciate what good is.
Humble Mike, in some circles.
Penn State is typically a top 10 wrestling program. Just making it there is a feat in itself.
Exactly
I want Mike to tell me bedtime stories. I love that voice.
I think he’s giving me one now lol
Yay! Love Mike Vecchione. Ryan Sickler has the best podcaster laugh ever. He brightens my day with just his laugh. Through happy stories or sad ones, he finds the light.
Ryan u should do an episode with your brothers 😮
You would think he’d have this idea since he is a twin. But alas…..he’d rather have ..Prof or who ever that didenis again. #ComediansHateTheirFamilies #NoneHaveThemOn
I think that’s a good idea. I like learning more about Ryan. Maybe they will be on the way back.
Vecchione is hilarious. He’s such a great stand up.
So stoked for this one!! Two great comedians and two of the nicest comics you could ever meet
Mike Vecchione is an underrated, super sharp comic who kills at the Comedy Cellar in New York. Makes it look effortless. See him if you get the chance, you won’t regret it!
Can't wait for the new pod cast! Love the honeydew! Your the best Ryan!
Word of the day… Tumultuous. 🤣🤣. HellYeah Sicker. Vecchione rules🤘🤘
I wish that I could break down my family dichotomy like this. We’re all broken, financially successful, and miserable people. Three brothers, struggling to conceal how we actually feel. You’re not alone out there
Sick dog i died laughing when you did the jesse petterson. Lol
Can you give me an example of racism?
@schweber10 it was covered on ymh I never watched any Peterson before lol
@@grantpowell4135 They were quoting the interview.
@8thlvlMage I know and with Ryan giving back story on how he ended up there while they were playing clips was hilarious
@@grantpowell4135 yea I know. Thus the quote
Vecchione!!! I love these 2 genuine human beings❤
Omg this episode was awesome....literally cried love Mike!!!!
This was a great podcast very relatable from Mike’s story you did a great job as always giving good questions, insight, & humor along the way. Can’t wait for more and to watch The Way Back 🎉😊

Mike I know and understand and appreciate your story. Much Love.
Love Vecchione. Detective Mike letting the hair get over regulation for an undercover gig.❤
Vecchione investigates was a hilarious podcast. Sad it's over now but whatever he does next will be great! Happy holidays
These are highlights to my work week. Fuckin love crankin this up in the headphones while I do body work all day. Solid escape from sore knees and elbows 🤣
Mike V doing time teaching in Delco! Shout out him, he has a really compassionate perspective on troubled folks and I am here for it. Love that he’s a comedian but this is the kinda guy you want in schools teaching ✨
From the wrestling relation to the situation with his father & the advice of letting someone have power over you / wasting time being something I’m currently navigating this was THE episode of the show I was meant to hear.
Pretty funny mikes podcast ended two months ago. If this came out sooner maybe he’d still have it.

This episode of The Honeydew is sponsored by the word "tumultuous"...
Mike vecchione investigates was the best show on gas digital.
tumultuous 😉 love ya Ryan and princess and crew!
😂😂 I need to go back and keep count
Alright at wresting then states he went to penn gotta love the humbleness
This episode brought to you by the word tumultuous
I come from a family that isn't very affectionate. I never told my parents I loved them and vice versa until a couple of years ago when my Dad had a near-death experience. Now I make sure I don't leave or end a call without saying I love you.
God bless❤ happy holidays
Saw Mike open for Nate in Philly last year. Killed it!!! Been a fan since!!!
“tumultuous“
FTWB! Can't wait for the new podcast!
I live in Delco PA Kennett square still grows a whole lot of mushrooms. I wax always told that Kennett Square produces more mushrooms than the whole rest of USA
Mikey vechs 😂😆 I know this is gonna be a good one
I got you both. I was some guys 500th (maybe 300th) high school win. Kurt Angle was there to call the match at McGuffey since it was going to happen that day. 🤣. Most of us that wrestled were fed to the wolves at some point. It's a right of passage
Youngstown Ohio has produced so many “famous” people. A ton of football coaches too. Bob Stoops and his brothers are all from Youngstown.
I always get the Italian comedians from the northeast mixed up. I'm glad Mike is getting out there more, he deserves it.
Shout out to Kennett Square Chester County!
Mikey! Go jackets!!!
Quick question but how tall is james brown?
Shout out to all of us that grew up in the dirty 330
Wasn't this episode already out? I could swear I saw this already....
Penn state is the TOP wrestling school in the country...mike just walked on and made the team??
Help me honeydew goung through a break up today, need some good stories
holy crap how many times can this guy say tumultuous
Dang, Ryan been holding this episode back. Mike promoted his podcast which he ended about 3 months ago, i miss Mike Vecchione Investigates. Whose going to remind me women can be astronauts too?!
That’s an Italian apology.
This episode of the Honeydew 🍈 is brought to you by tumultuous
Odd that he’s also living his dad’s relationship with his grandfather.
Isn't Hinchcliffe from Youngstown too?
My mom has a similar illness as Mikes dad.
Mike must have just learned the word tumultuous. listening to him describe his dad as such 12 times in 5 minutes was painful
YOUNGSTOWN OHIO......
west side baby!!
Stop back logging things. Mike had an amazing podcast... Wish it was still a thing
Not true. Most mushrooms are grown in Pennsylvania around the gap area.
Show starts at 3:25 you’re welcome
My only question is WAS it tumultuous, or not??
Am I crazy or does mike look a lot like Brian Lagerstrom?
Love vecky… but is that a cyst on his cheek?
tumultuous
Would love to see my best friend nick mullen on here
I could not have anymore of a hype-boner than I do now for the wayback. Jan 4th cannot come fast enough!
