The man, the myth, the baby. Michael Brestin, eternalized by his alias, “Baby Mike” (despite being one of the older Mikes on the team), is perhaps one of the most intriguing figures of RUMTA. Whether he’s “accidentally” sending the team group chat obscure memes or constantly sporting a confused look on his face, Mike is a trailblazer—and we’re barely keeping up. He can switch from a pathologist to a surfer dude in seconds. He somehow always comes up with the best one-liners. And most perplexing of all, he has a boating license but can’t drive a car. An enigma if we ever seen one.

The dress attire is Hawaiian Luau, right?
