Maximum Mike

Maximum Mike is the radio host and DJ of Night City's 107.3 Morro Rock Radio.

Mike's talk show investigates major political actors and events, fuelled by listener reports, attempting to advocate the development of critical citizen thought and doubt of the media through the spread of ideas which don't differ much from common conspiracy theories. While he does occasionally insert details from his private life, who he truly is remains a mystery, likely for the better, considering the amount of data presented publicly which could potentially be damaging to big corporations - if true.

By listening to Mike himself, it is possible to pick up on a few details regarding his life, which cannot quite amount to biographical matter but add value to the history he's been through and his current way of life. Among other things, he will state that he had been living in one of the first MegaBuildings ever to be built in Watson. He does not imply the number nor if the building still stands. He appears to enjoy the visual arts, exclaiming his love for Klimt in particular, although believes that anything displayed in museums is a forgery due to real artwork being shipped to the Moon. He infrequently mentions having friends in high places that reveal the truth of matters to him, among which are those that work for Biotechnica. According to him, when they get drunk, they cannot lie anymore and tend to expose the inner works of the corporation. While commenting on cyberpsychosis and possible machinations regarding its occurrence, he admits witnessing some attacks and therefore no longer doubting that they actually happen. The final and conclusive detail he reveals of himself is a warning to the listeners - he is protected. Hidden. Nobody is able to lay a hand on him. However, this does not apply to those listeners still in the street, who should remain wary of their surroundings.

Mike's monologues will often draw roots from hard truths, containing information only the actors of certain events might have known, although, as if intentionally, he spices it up with a bit of absurdity. The careful listener or those familiar with the mentioned affairs, might be able to discern fact from fiction, going as far as anticipating things that have not yet happened.
