Mike shared with his fans what is happening at the Ohio River and Maui
The Fast X star warned his followers about scammers pretending to be him and asking for money.
Jason wrote: “We must honor the grief that Lāhainā has endured, and give West Maui the space it needs to come to terms with what has happened, and what it continues to face.
Inspectors and cadaver dogs have been searching Lahaina, the historic town of 13,000 where the fire started on August 8.
The History Channel star also shared a brief clip on how the Living Lands & Waters team pulled out rusted safe in the barren Ohio River.
Behind the two members of the Environmental Conservation Organization, there was an enormous pile of junkyard trash, dirty and deflated tires, and garbage bags close to river.
Mike shared his love for Hawaii after he had previously gone on a romantic getaway.
A ROMANTIC VACATION
At the beginning of August, the TV star jetted off to Hawaii with his girlfriend, Leticia Cline, 44.
Mike posted several photos and videos during his visit to the tropical location.
He shared a snapshot of the setting sun over the palm trees.
The TV personality wrote: “Maui sunset.”
He also uploaded a short video of a traditional band and dancer performing on the hotel grounds in the evening.
The former Playboy model also documented their trip on social media and posted a clip of the hotel from their balcony.
She pointed the camera at the pristine lawns, palm trees, and the ocean.
Although Mike has shared his interests in Hawaii, viewers have not become invested in his show.
THE RATINGS DROP
Mike returned with his brother Robbie Wolfe, 62, and Danielle Colby, 47, as the co-hosts for the Season 25 premiere in early July.
In mid-July, The U.S. Sun revealed the ratings hit a downward spiral and dropped by 100,000 viewers.
While 918,000 viewers watched the premiere, ratings dipped to 803,000 during the installment on July 12.
Near the end of the month, the U.S. Sun also reported that another 100,000 viewers were missing during the July 19 installment, as just 713,000 people tuned in.
The ratings finally ticked up a bit for the July 26 episode with about 885,000 viewers watching.
