Mike McConnell is a popular Cincinnati, Ohio, radio talk show host. His show has been nationally syndicated since July 2006.

His weekday show, Midday with Mike McConnell, can be heard Monday through Friday from 9:00 am to 12:00 noon (ET) on over twenty stations across the US. Mike's Saturday show, The Weekend with Mike McConnell, is heard Saturdays from 12:00 pm to 3:00 pm (ET) on over one-hundred stations. The Weekend was developed in 1998 to feature different rotating guest hosts weekly, until McConnell took over the show permanently.

After consistently maintaining the #1 position of his time slot year after year in the Cincinnati area, McConnell's WLW-based program began syndication on July 1, 2006. Current podcasts of his weekday radio show are available for download at www.700wlw.com. McConnell's show has had few stations pick up his shows due to the competitiveness of other midmorning shows in the United States such as Laura Ingraham, Glenn Beck, Dennis Miller and Neal Boortz. The program is unusually slotted twice in Premiere Radio Networks's schedule, being listed in both its live slot and a 10 PM to 1 AM ET replay. The latter slot is the spot vacated by The Phil Hendrie Show, which broadcast its last show a week before McConnell's show began syndication. This would imply that the plan was for McConnell's show to be used in place of Hendrie's, which aired as part of Clear Channel Communications's standard news talk station lineup along with shows like The Glenn Beck Program, The Rush Limbaugh Show, and Coast to Coast AM. However, because of the tape delay, only a handful of stations have picked up the show and most stations that aired Hendrie have chosen other programming. Almost all Hendrie affiliates that feature Sean Hannity as a personality have picked up Mark Levin's radio show.

McConnell's shows often feature a broad range of topics, from ‘in the news’ social issues to avant-garde extreme topics.
