    I loved the Michael Brooks show. I felt it was advancing in strides each week in Michael’s last year. So brilliant, so empathetic, so funny, so personable.

    Michael Brooks deserves every bit of the vocal love he still receives on a daily basis. Left is best and Michael was the best of us. Fortunately, a huge part of his greatness was the inspiration he sparked in others.

    I have never before or since been so deeply effected by the loss of someone I've never met. I often contemplated calling in to talk to him one day and looked forward to that interaction. It will upset me, even to this day, when I see a Michael Brooks video. I followed his work for 4 years before his passing. He brought me out of the right wing rabbit hole. I will forever love him for that.

    I am British/Nigerian(based in England) and have been watching for over 13 years and I have missed very few episodes over the course of that time. I know you all talk about the MR family but I don’t know if you are all aware of how much all of you mean to all of us regular viewers and that includes the extended MR family. Michael’s loss was devastating and this was the first time since his death that I have been able to watch anything with Michael that lasted more than about a minute without having to stop. I spend more time listening to you than I do my own brothers and I just wanted you to know that. Thank you for all that you do and I am so grateful that your show exists. RIP dear Michael and Left is Best.

    When ever I look at clips of Michael I cycle through laughing and crying. He was bringing all kinds of interetsing threads together, and in the months before he passed I started to recognise more than ever how compassionate he was. I cry because his bright light wasn't just taken from his friends and family and those of us who enjoyed and appreciated him from afar; his gifts were also taken from society. Still, I'm left with an immense gratitude that he had the platform he had and that this record remains for us to revisit, re-comtemplate and be inspired by.

    I started listening to the show during the early days of the 2020 primaries and Michael's energy and insight and humor were a big part of what hooked me. Tuning into the show became a daily comfort during the scary early pandemic months. I had never cried for a celebrity before but when I heard of his passing I wept and wept. He did so much good, and I feel lucky to have heard his voice. Thanks for giving us all a chance to celebrate him with you. Happy Birthday Michael Brooks!
