Following his return from the Australian jungle, he sat down for an episode of his podcast, The Good, the Bad and the Rugby, where he discussed the experience with his co-hosts. Mike was grilled about his true thoughts on his fellow campmates and even took part in a quick-fire round where listeners submitted their questions to him.

Mike revealed that he didn’t "have" to seek permission from the royals, but as a courtesy he decided to do so anyway.
"You don't want to upset anyone," he explained. "I spoke to the Prince of Wales about it and he said 'Great, go have fun'."
The dad-of-three also revealed that he wasn't warned off sharing certain stories of the royals, knowing what he shouldn't share, and admitted to sometimes "cutting conversations short" when he was quizzed about them, knowing a short dialogue wouldn't make it to air.
