Drawing on his experiences picking up roadkill, feeding swine, and castrating a lamb with his teeth, Mike Rowe, host of Discovery Channel's Dirty Jobs, discusses how modern American culture belittles necessary labor.
EG is the celebration of the American entertainment industry. Since 1984, Richard Saul Wurman has created extraordinary gatherings about learning and understanding. EG is a rich extension of these ideas - a conference that explores the attitude of understanding in music, film, television, radio, technology, advertising, gaming, interactivity and the web - The Entertainment Gathering
Mike Rowe has had more jobs than you. In fact, Mike has had more jobs than anyone.
As the creator and executive producer of Discovery Channels Emmy-nominated series Dirty Jobs With Mike Rowe, Mike has spent years traveling the country, working as an apprentice on more than 200 jobs that most people would go out of their way to avoid. From coal mining to roustabouting, maggot farming to sheep castrating, Mike has worked in just about every industry and filmed the show in almost every state, celebrating the hard-working Americans who make civilized life possible for the rest of us.
On Labor Day 2008, Mike launched a Web site called mikeroweWORKS.com, where skilled labor and hard work are celebrated in the hope of calling attention to the steady decline in the trades and bolstering enrollment in trade schools and technical colleges.
In addition to Dirty Jobs and his mikeroweWORKS endeavor, Mike is the voice of Deadliest Catch and the national spokesman for Ford Trucks. He has traveled extensively for Discovery Channel, hosting Shark Week in South Africa, where he field-tested a steel-mesh shark-suit, and Egypt Week Live, where he opened and explored newly discovered tombs in the Valley of the Golden Mummies.

Mike is quietly one of the best presenters of our era.
Mike and Jeremy Clarkson would be 2/3 of a modern Trinity
This man is my hero and should be the one children look up to on TV. We can all learn a lot from his TV show.
The reason why i'm a happy grain mill worker making $19/hr instead of the depressed book keeper making 45K is because i met Mike at a conference at university of Iowa. I love the work i do, I love the feeling of getting a job done and putting my back into the job everyday. My paycheck is second to the job and thats what makes my job great And that turned a shitty sketchy job scraping the interior of 100 foot tall grain bins into a career of supervising 13 people feeding the regions cattle and hogs.
It's a huge step forward in our lives to realize that we are in fact wrong quite a bit. I love this speech.
Mike Rowe has entertainment flowing out of his ears. He’s a good man, too. Sola Gratia!
Mike Rowe, if you decide to run for any political position, I would happily vote for you. :) You are honestly one of the most level-headed, well rounded people I've ever heard.
While I enjoyed this video and feel Mike's heart is sincere, I thought he was a little patronizing with the "people with dirty jobs are happy" routine. I can't tell you how many days I would trade my "happy" dirty job for something less dirty. If we want people to stay in the skilled trades (as I am) the pay has to be addressed, but it isn't.
I know this is very old but what do you do? Bc most of the dirty jobs that I remember were either unskilled labor (miserable with no freedom or lifestyle), skilled labor (often terrible, but in an exciting and highly compensated way), or a pastoral lifestyle like that of a farmer/rancher/shepherd etc that managed to offer those who succeeded (and there is never a guarantee of that) a moderate compensation and a lifestyle of independence lacking in most jobs.
In other words, if you want more money, go get it! Don’t expect anyone else to help you do that.
Yeah, making 100k a year getting a little dirty sure beats going through college 4 years and being in major debt to end up working at a bank for 13 bucks an hour, but at least you're clean
Idk I work landscape and hardscape and work with construction, carpenters, plumbers, etc and everyone I know is happier than the lawyers, business, secretaries, scientists, and health professionals I know. I really think it's because we work our body and mind. Landscape and construction is a lot of problem solving and calculating so the mind is used quite a bit and obviously it is very physical. When I worked in a lab making medications for 60+ hours a week I was physically deprived and mentally stressed all the time. Took a year off as a reset and Idk if I want to go back even if the pay is a lot less. I still work a lot on landscape but it's more of a 50 hour work week then a 60+. I am a lot happier and can actually sleep! I also have energy to go hiking and go to the gym even after an extremely physical day.
Anything you say will always have someone who disagrees with you. He isn't speaking for everyone in a dirty job, he is attesting to his experience with the people he worked with on those jobs and comparing it to the people who work retail or programming or even in a cubicle. The song Code Monkey is a good example of cubicle programmer opinions.
Damn, dude, didn't realize this guy was such a grifter.
My work is IT - recently I've been doing projects at home: drywall, paint, caulking, drop ceilings. I'm finding that the labor, the manual work - it's much more rewarding then what I'm doing in IT
Incredibly intelligent gentleman. I feel enlightened by listening to him share his experiences. Really great communication.
This guy really does kick ass! The Discovery Channel wouldn't be the same without him. Hes just as nice in real life as he is on the show, and thats refreshing to see.
This is an amazing speech with so much in it. Frankly not surprised at all that it's Mike Rowe giving it. His humour also allows us to watch it through :)
This video started out as something to laugh and cringe about but then he took the most meaningful lesson out of it, it really inspires you to do something big with your life.
Mike Rowe, you are indeed wise!
Mike makes so much sense. I listened to the whole 20 minutes and am glad I did.
This guy could with 1 speech bring global peace. His speaking talent is amazing.
Mike Rowe for President 2016!
if only
Many times I've enjoyed this video; today was different. My nephew and my friend were talking about Red Dead Redemption II. I was brought aware of the skinning of animals in the game. Haven't watched it. I've lived it. We discussed many different things I've done. Defiling, killing, dismemberment of many different animals when I was younger. All learned from farming. All youth of today should absolutely spend a summer or two on a farm; any farm. They will walk away with more knowledge and respect for things in life! Great talk. Again, I'm glad to watch it again!
You are 100% CORRECT !! Kids today aren't even taught how Food ends up on their dinner plates every night !, How Tires are made (Rubber in General), How the Streets and Highways they Ride on everyday get there and so many THOUSANDS of things that we "Old Farts" learned and we're TAUGHT when "Growing Up" and becoming and Adult !! Back then, Being GROWN wasn't because someone turned 18,21 or whatever age your State or Country says a Minor becomes an Adult !!!!. I've slaughtered Cows, Pigs, Chickens, Rabbits, Deer, and So on and on and on !!!, I was raised on a Small Farm ! We raised most of our meats and veggies until i "Grew Up" and moved away on my on. If you want the Honest reason we stopped growing a ", Garden" is because my Great Grandpa died !! He was a "Share Cropper" his entire life, And he ALWAYS had a small Garden growing in his 1 acre lot next to his house that "The Family" was raised on !!. After he passed, We mainly only raised our Meats.. I truly miss that lifestyle !!!.
@@ballardstowingandoffroadre2367 Farming; long, hard yet rewarding days!
I love Mike Rowe for his wit, I will now worship him for his wisdom!!! Coem back to Northern California, Gary's Place, Marysville, we miss you!
This was very enlightening for me. Thank you for posting it.
Mike!
You the man! Challenge everything!
A true genius that states how it really is. He has more common sense in his toenails than some of folks who commented here have in their whole body. Open your ears and listen. He is too smart to run for office, but would serve us well...Bravo Mike.
mike rowe>>> IS THE MAN!!!!!!!! HANDS UP, THIS GUY HAS NO PREJUDICE, JUST AN OPEN MIND AND CLEAN HEART.. I WISH OUR REPORTERS, OUR POLITICAL OFFICIALS, AND EVERY1 ELSE COULD BE LIKE HIM..... GOD BLESS
Real work, no excuses. Outstanding commentary!
If there is any hope left for the future of the US, it is people like this man. Surf Wisely.
He would be a great President just saying. I would Vote for him .
*Write him in.* I would.
Screw president, i wish he was my dad.
+GreatBigRanz Why not both?
He's smart enough to never run.
As the testicals are bitten and pulled off, the veins are stretched and become skinnier and skinnier to the point where they cannot be rubber banded back into shape. This causes the veins to be permanently skinny and allows the blood flow to be cut off way more than being just cut. Once the testicals are pulled off, there is much less bleeding than if they were cut off.

He is amazing!
Not only is he attractive and humorous but he's logical and intelligent, too!
Super intelligent guy with integrity to spare. Why is "PETA" listed as one of the primary subjects? He barely mentioned it and didn't share whatever opinion he has of it.
Click bate. But its a lot better than the other click bates.
You know why...
Rowe has a group now championing American manual laborers. The nation is better off for having this man.
Mike Rowe is a national treasure
I already liked Mike...but now I have even more reason to respect this great informative and educating speaker.
Nice work Mike and a thumbs up posting!
Entirely unscripted, no visual enhancements behind him, and slightly buzzed on wine. Mike Rowe should run for president.
That would scare the hell out of politicians. :)
I love this man; could listen to him for hours. Plus with all the experience he has, he must have tons of advice and knowledge to pass down :o
Mike you so nailed it!!!
I really enjoy this piece you done and I love to watch Dirty Job, you are awesome!
I see it everyday, I work in the HR dept at our company, new employees come and go, because when they find out they actually have to work, they freak out and leave the job.
Mike really hit on what this show is about and what his meaning is in doing the show.
I wonder if Mike will ever know the impact he could have...? Greatness and the knowledge to back it up is rare.
He wouldn't last long in a Political Position !!!!! Because, He's an Honest person ! He would truly fight for "The People" and all the Crooks in Politics would either Force him out of office if possible, OR have him "Exterminated" because all the "Politicians" care about is putting the money in "Their" Pockets or in someone they knows pockets !!!. President Trump was trying to weed out the Crooks and you see what they did to him !!!.
No one laughed when he mentioned Hillary?
What a crowd! lmao
That was fantastic ......enjoyed every minute of it.....what a surprise.
Absolutely amazing video. The first half is funny, the second half is practically inspiring, Mike Rowe has the best speaking voice and based on his ideas at the end of this video i think he as a person can best be described as a visionary.
almost like a white morgan freeman
"If I were running for anything-and I'm not" should change
I really enjoyed watching this vid of Mike. I always love hear'in his voice. It's a non-forgetable voice yet strong and comforting liek the voice of a story teller.
I started watching this, not expecting to watch the full video, but that was one of the smoothest best 20 minutes spent. Usually I get the point in 3 and the rest isn't interesting enough to keep me watching - not at all the case with this one. I could listen to him all day!
Great guy and intelligent too!!! Love his show!
I love him, he is so attractive, I will call him perfect, it is the man of my dreams
He is incredibly handsome....agree💯
I watched this whole thing, it was very inspiring. He has a good voice for telling tales! ^^
UGH... LOVE HIM :) Crushed every episode :)
What a great talk! Our world needs more of this type of common sense. And humility. How often do you hear people admit the enormity of what they "got wrong"? Thank you Mike Rowe.
Awesome talk!
the best message from this video: being innovative! thanks mike rowe
This man is AWESOME. He could just talk for hours and I would listen with my eyes glazed over and a goofy grin on my face. 8 )
I have so much unconditional and devoted respect for Mike Rowe after these incredibly short 20 minutes...
its 2022 and i still love how he tells this story
As usual, Mike make me laugh yet, think. Awesome combo in a man.
The man is a fantastic speaker, and I genuinely enjoyed listening to every minute of this lecture.
This was pretty amazing.
This is a priceless video. The whole reason I enjoy the Dirty Jobs show and concept--hell, I got three DVDs of it for christmas one year--is that they call attention to the jobs we have forgotten. The jobs that people used to hold positions of respect in are now 'blue collar' and not as desirable as they once were.
Right out of high school I enrolled in a trade/vocational school, and I do not regret it in the least.
Great Vid..... Very well done..
wow, this guy never ceases to amaze me.
What a great speaker. Very entertaining. The only person that can pull this off.
Honestly I was waiting to hear the story I had heard rumors of it before, now I know it and so so so much more. I learned my new thing for the day!
THANK YOU!
Wow i loved that speech! Totally agree with everything he said. Smart guy. I also loved the symmetry of it. Well concluded at the end. : )
best lecture ive ever seen, to me it was empowering and i never new mike rowe was such a intelegen and great speaker
I want to hug this man, very insightful
Yeah, same here. I was captivated by what he was saying.
My respect and admiration for Mike Rowe just trippled, if not quadrupled.
i never realized he was so intellectual wow !
he was a keynote speaker at the National FFA Convention last week. the best speech I have ever heard!!
I needed to hear this when I was in High school
I love his voice. I love the way he talks. I would love to be able to speak like this man
Great insight.
That actually was a pretty practical and very entertainment and intelligent short seminar.
jesus, no wonder why discovery channel hires mike rowe for everything.. this guy is a narrating genius
All these hosts for Discovery Channel are so intelligent, funny and have great charisma.
love him. come to Nashville TN, Mike. You'll fit in great!
very well done job!
i always fall asleep and hate lectures and long speeches but for some odd reason i want to listen to mike rowe talk moreXD
As a second generation Painter(Not paintings but walls) so that last part really hit me, i've always been proud of my father slaving away up and down ladders in rooms that are filled with every kind of dust know to man with chemicals that will destroy your lungs and body if handled wrong, just to put food on the table and a roof over my head. So proud that I wanted to do the same, now we work together every day and I wouldn't trade it for anything!
Brilliant speech, just awesome.
Wow, I liked Mike on Dirty Jobs but here is a whole new level...... He's is great!!
that was very good. i would like to hear what he has to say on other topics concerning some of our current problems.
Very inspiration ans insightful!
Impressive. Didn't know the guy but now I love him :)
Excellent speaker and very natural story teller- Thanks! I don't think I could have done it- haha
This guy is great, I just saw his interview with Tucker Carlson....awesome and funny!
Well said gamer - Rowe is one of my most respected people on TV - gives a little appreciation for those who work an honest 8 - god bless him for it.
that was a speech that showed some insightful views that actually made me think quite hard and agree one some of his points.
Wow what an interesting talk... Mike rowe is an interesting person. If you have the time this is very enlightening.
That's what I heard! My teacher/FFA leader went to meet him. Can't wait to hear about it!
you inspired me thanks
Wow that was super smart and completely in tune with whats going on in American culture. Mike Rowe knows what he's talking about.
I know have an even bigger respect level for Mike Rowe.
amazing speech!
I nearly started clapping when I got done watching the video, then I remembered I was watching a video...
A hero.. pure and simpel !
Awesome!!!!
He is a wonderful speaker!
