Mike Golic says he never overslept in 25 years of waking up early for morning radio shows

Mike Golic’s run on ESPN Radio — and on morning shows in general — was incredible.

But what might be just as impressive is the fact we learned from his appearance on the podcast of his ESPN colleague Adam Schefter: he informed the NFL reporter that in 25 years of waking up that early, whether it was at 4:15 or 4:30 AM, he NEVER overslept and missed the start of a show. He set one alarm! Luckily, on weekends, he was able to go back to sleep after he’d stir around that super-early time.

What’s more is now that he doesn’t have to wake up that early anymore, he got rid of his alarm clock (or he might mean the alarm set on his phone).

Golic also tweeted this on his first Monday after his final show:

There’s a lot to get used to after over two decades doing the same thing.
