    I grew up watching Mike Rowe - Dirty Jobs. He showed me that there are many jobs out there and you can be proud doing all of them. From the bottom of my heart, thanks Mike for making my childhood so great.

    Mike is literally my childhood. Grew up watching dirty jobs and hearing him narrate everything. I'm now a 25 year old welder, and honestly think I went the direction of a trade because of Mike Rowe. Love Mike and Theo together. Would watch every single episode
