The skill set of Melbourne’s smooth fm 91.5 breakfast host Mike Perso is one I wholeheartedly champion:

‘Playing records, loving listeners, avoiding wankers wherever possible.’

Mike, like 2GB’s Graham Ross, celebrates 45 years in the radio industry this week.

Mike was interviewed by Nine News Melbourne (above) about the highs, including No 1 ratings in the city, and lows of his radio career, the journey from Kalgoorlie in 1980 to smooth 13 years ago and his continued love for the medium.
