Nov 14, 2011 - He should really try some dirty job's over here in the uk

Nov 18, 2011 - This guy is just so open, honest, and well spoken. He encourages people who don't get a college education to learn a trade, and you can make a hell of a good living doing something else.

Nov 19, 2011 - I think you have just bridged a gap that a few people needed to hear.  As a welder who grew up on a farm and thought the grass was greener on the white collar side then came back to blue collar. You nailed it Mike.....Keep it up!

Nov 20, 2011 - Very smart and very funny. Does anyone else think he sounds like Brian Cranston?

blondago56 Says:

Dec 11, 2011 - You would never know how much this man had to say until I heard this talk. You can really appreciate the show and the hard-working people behind it. Manual labor needs to be a very important thing that should be honored.

Dec 11, 2011 - "Safety Third" sounds great - until you're that person in a job your family depends on, stuck in a workplace where shareholder profit takes precedence over the condition of your physical safety. I understand what Mike's saying, but there's a reason we beat up the point on "safety first". Workers become disposable cogs in production line if our welfare isn't constantly fought for. Mike is a romantic. The reality of unchecked physical labor is broken, used up people.

Dec 13, 2011 - I'm college educated, but I was always told as a child that there is no shame in hard work. I think we need to stop viewing blue collar people as less intelligent, because it's simply not true. I know for a fact that if my car broke down or my sink exploded I would be on the phone with a plumber or a mechanic.

Dec 29, 2011 - I saw the episode of the guy who picks up the leftover food. I am stunned the amount of food wasteage in the United States let alone my country of Canada

Dec 31, 2011 - Love Mike. Would enjoy seeing him held and given a couple of surprise gut punches at the end of a show by his crew members. The expression on his face would be priceless.

Jan 3, 2012 - @thewooforfun "If you don't want to work at McDonald's or dig a ditch, you'd better go to college!"*18 years later*"What the Hell? Too good for honest work? Yes, I see your Masters degree, but still!"Frankly, it isn't this generation's fault that they're so averse to blue collar work. It's been instilled in them since birth that physical labor was an undesirable outcome in their life and career, and were essentially promised (falsely) that they could avoid it with education.

Jan 7, 2012 - @ComedicShinigami I have a college degree. But I would rather work doing something physical then sit behind a desk for the rest of my life!
