What’s happening? I’m Michael Rataj, the dedicated father and loving husband behind CraVemarketplace. As an Army Veteran, I bring a no-nonsense attitude and a wealth of experiences to whatever I do. Growing up in Chicago, I’m a complete Chicago Sports fanatic. As a kid I loved going fishing and camping in Canada, (Walley & Northern) and that sense of adventure has never left me. I’m also a proud Sun Devil from ASU. As a, go-to product reviewer, and YouTuber, I combine a keen eye for quality with a passion for overall happiness.

When I’m not curating the best products for men, you’ll find me diving into a good book (watching T.V) or discussing the latest in sports, movies, politics, and whatever else is making headlines. On The Rat’s Report: A Podcast For Men” we talk about current events, life hacks, and all things manly. Get ready for unbiased reviews, relatable dad stories, and some military nonsense. No matter your views, I’ll hear you out – though I probably won’t change my mind. Join me for straight talk, good laughs, and a community where men can be men, making your experience on this platform both informative and enjoyable.
