In the video, Mike, 58, filmed at Antique Archaeology in Le Claire, Iowa.

Mike entered the building, where Danielle was standing to greet him.

The antique expert and burlesque dancer wore a sleeveless denim jumpsuit with a floral pattern, showing off her selection of colorful tattoos.

After introducing the crew members, TV star Mike gave his camera to a friend and posed with his arm around Danielle.

He took off his bright yellow cap and said: “See all this gray hair?” he then gestured at his co-star and joked: “She gave me this.”

One of the crew members then pitched in with a question for Mike’s social media followers: “Do we like Mike with or without a beard? He’s thinking about shaving it!”

Mike then sarcastically responded: “You know what, this was all so natural and then you made it weird!”

The whole crew exchanged jokes and laughs throughout the live video, and Mike and Danielle hugged as they said goodbye to the audience and got back to work.

BIG REUNION

Frank Fritz, 57, and Mike were reunited over the Memorial Day weekend after arrangements were made by a friend of the stars.

Mike was the one who publicly revealed that Frank had been fired from the show in July 2021.

The friend who brought the former History Channel co-stars together told the local Iowa periodical The Quad-City Times: “This was not a feud between Mike and Frank at all.”

She continued: “They were not feuding. They needed separation to appreciate each other.”

The friend explained that the longtime buddies’ relationship became tense working 10-hour days, seven days a week together for 11 seasons.

She informed the newspaper that Mike and Frank were both in tears during their long-awaited reunion.

The American Pickers creator told his former co-star: “Nobody can replace you, Frank,” while admitting that it was Frank’s uniquely funny personality that contributed to them working so well together for the 11 years they spent making the show.

UPS AND DOWNS

After months of plummeting ratings, American Pickers didn’t air a new episode for weeks in October 2022.

As cast and crew members took on other projects, fans became concerned that the show could soon be canceled.

Last month, however, Mike’s brother Robbie Wolfe revealed what fans can expect out of the next season of American Pickers.

He wrote: “We’ve been out on the road picking and filming all new @americanpickers whose ready for some new episodes this summer?”

Earlier this month, Mike also shared a shot of himself with co-stars Robbie and Jon Szalay.

Fans quickly took to Mike’s comment section to let him know that they were excited to see the History Channel stars together again.Mike recently reunited with Frank Fritz, who was fired from the show in 2021, with a friend of the pair assuring fans that there was no feud between them
