About the Podcast

Top-rated radio personality Spike and Emmy-winning TV reporter Hank Winchester leave the constraints of traditional media behind to give you real conversations, real laughs, and real life. Every week, you'll get unfiltered and unscripted discussions about Detroit, pop culture, wild trending topics and their own comedic and chaotic personal lives. Nothing is off limits. You'll get a candid peek behind the media curtain from two guys who spent decades in the public eye. Spike & Hank will get more personal than ever about relationships, parenting, and the unexpected twists that come with their longtime friendship. It's an entertaining escape full of hilarious, honest hot takes you didn't know you needed. This isn’t polished, scripted, or “approved by corporate.” They can't be managed, which is why they're here! It's fun. New episodes every Tuesday.

About the Hosts

Spike

Spike enjoyed a 30 year career hosting radio morning shows, including 23 years as co-founder and co-host of “Mojo in the Morning,” heard across Michigan and on the iHeartRadio Podcast Network. He has interviewed everyone from Taylor Swift to President Obama and broadcast live from the Olympics, the Oscars, and even a Zamboni cruising down I-75. When he stepped away from radio, his morning show was ranked #1 in the market and his “Phone Scam” prank calls were the most popular feature in Detroit radio. Spike loves traveling the world and spending time outdoors with his wife Megan and his two daughters. He enjoys photography, music, dive bars, Michigan football, his fluffy dog and the eternal search for a perfect cup of coffee. ExploreWithSpike.com

Hank

Hank Winchester is a multiple Emmy Award-winning investigative journalist and consumer advocate who helped thousands of Detroiters avoid scams and held fraudsters accountable. Over more than two decades on local television, he earned the trust of viewers across Southeast Michigan and became one of the region’s most respected names in consumer reporting, during a run when WDIV-TV was the highest-rated NBC affiliate in the country. He also co-hosted “The Morning After with Kelly Stafford and Hank,” a podcast that drew more than 250,000 monthly downloads. Hank got engaged to his fiancé The Honorable Judge Jake in Paris and spends most of his time in the school pick-up line waiting for his 8 year old daughter Emma while blasting Madonna very loudly.
