That would have been awesome! I didn't like History either, and it used to make my daddy so mad. And he'd tell me it's the story of how we became the greatest country in the world. I wish now I would have had his enthusiasm and love for Story.
Thank you to all who paved the way to make this country and life possible. I am so thankful every day to all that has been contributed and sacrificed. Thank you Mike keep up the good work.
🇺🇸 Long may she wave 🇺🇸 I am the daughter of a WWII veteran. These boys fought so that we may live as free Americans. The fight continues. Thank you, soldier.
Thank you Mike for being an advocate. I'm 24 so I've been a Nissan mechanic for only 6 years now. But even when I was in high school there was LITERALLY a "vocational" school 100ft away, but while in high school that option was never mentioned. Only college preached. I personally found out from a family friend who had done it almost 10 years before me. Its a very rewarding job and has taught me life skills I never would of imagined. And you can never forget about the colorful cornucopia of people you meet, customers and co-workers alike. #MikeRowe #Mike #Rowe #Works -Bradenton FL
Hi there! Mister Rowe please, please keep gracing us with your heavenly voice. You are a gift from God. You have made this world have meaning and grace. I thank your mom and dad for raising such an amazing man. God bless you and your voice.
This one of the most powerful things I’ve experienced in a long time. Mike, you are an inspiration. To me anyway. A combat vet looking for a way to puts his words to paper. But I don’t know how. Thanks for setting a standard. THE standard. The work continues..
What an amazing story GOD BLESS this Man's Soul. The stories he could tell, how much we could have learned from someone like this. Just love what Mike is doing with these videos. I am amazed after every episode. Keep up the Good Work!!!!
Mike, you inspired my son, Michael, to start welding school. He's left handed and never showed any skill with a tool, a pen, or whatever but he literally said that dude made his own job through the dirty job show, so I'm going to try. He's so happy and loves the satisfaction of making something useful. Thanks so much for the good advice. We all love you.
Mike rowe may dam well be the most level-headed, sense making dude alive! Great spirit and demeanor..epic role model for young men. I know i look up to Mike Rowe! !!
From somewhere deep inside, across time and generation a connection made. My heart is filled with imagination given only to the one who knows the path. Happy. The why I exist. I'll not hide behind the glass and say, "I do not care". To do so would be a lie. The reason I fight is chosen upon principle. When all else would say give up. Give in. Make do and let the pain engulf. Without the will to carry self respect. Without the seeds that make necessary my soul's flight toward heaven. Inside my breast, life moves throughout every rise and fall until no longer. When that inevitable conclusion comes, my will will be that of home. And that the Love we made was everything. For you. For me. For US. As always. Amen
WOW! ( I wish to say more, but that moving comment, has left me completely speechless)! Thank you for sharing that with us! May God bless you and yours!🇺🇸🌹💖💪
Mike Rowe is possibly the best human on the planet. He avoids political divisiveness, has humility, is a great speaker, and is always looking to help people out. Somehow fame and money didn't corrupt him, but instead made him better. This is the role model America needs.
Why is it so rare to hear true stories of valor, courage, honor? Why, in particular, are actual American heroes not venerated in public schools? I thank you for once again bringing to life a story I may never have heard of otherwise.
Great story Mike. I'm a vet and appreciate stories like this. Viet Nam like Korea is a forgotten war. And in some way I appreciate MOH Carney's story all the more. Though I'm not a hero like MOH Carney is.
Fantastic story sweetie. I am not suprised Hollywood skipped over him in the movie. Hollywood has a funny way of making even the best men nothing but a footnote if they are even seen at all. Love the new website. It is fantastic. The jobs part is great. Love yall added that.
Wow Mike, you're going to become known as The Great Facilitator! I only wish that our current educational system could guarantee that the word 'facilitator' won't be misunderstood or interpreted. Still though, as always, job well done.
What a great accounting of Bill Carney's bravery. Just one mistake he received tha Medal Of Honor. Congress has nothing to do with the award.....thank God.
Glory has been one of my most favorite movies. I never knew this...this great nation has so many heroes of every race and religion from most every country, this is what we are made of! Why after so many amazing examples of what the United States of America really is and of all the changes over time that has righted the wrongs are we still using race and religion as a weapon for monetary and vote driven agendas? I pray for the sadness that is our government and that all Americans will realize that we can think for ourselves and stop giving any attention to the media and government and make the right things happen.....God bless America
Dear Mr. Rowe, thanks for your service. I do believe Mr. Paul Harvey is enjoying someone picking up the flag and carrying the Rest of the Story. I enjoy your work very much and hope to see much more in the future. Kindest regards.
Wish you would expand Mike Rowe Works into Canada, desperately needed here as well Brother! Another incredible & interesting story, a great narrative as always, thank you for sharing it with us.
Another Most Excellent video by you, Sir Mike Rowe. Oh and BTW, I tell the younger generation that if they are willing to work for it, that your "Mike Rowe Works" is something they should consider - other than a (somewhat) meaningless college degree that may or may not do them any good in their future. I'd much rather see our youth go into the trades than sit around and push buttons all day!
Wow, really interested in it, as a 21-year-old that only has college credit from High School but have worked being a concert runner, gold miner, salesman, jeweler with my grandmother since 11-years-old, concierge, receptionist, bartender, line cook, cashier, pushing carts, speak Spanish, bagging groceries, prospective farmer, caterer, and call center, with everything those jobs encompasses. Sometimes even with all this, its hard to find jobs. Why? Because they want you to be apart of an institution, or a fraternity, university, and etc. Now this program is a program about not being stuck in a program, working with only your hands and head it seems, which is what I have done most of my life, will have to luck into it more. God Save, America!
Thank you the promotion of work and workers! Having two Master's degrees, I have to agree that degrees and advanced degrees are not worth it. In fact, I was replaced by people who only had (at best) associate degrees. They later got their BS degrees by working at the university i worked at and getting the courses for free. Please keep up these great stories, but above all, keep letting people know that jobs are available for people without degrees and without advanced degrees!
Mike, This was the first episode I have seen of this series. I am now subscribed and "got the bell on". As you spoke of this great man I did not hear that baritone voice from Baltimore MD. I heard an all too familiar tenor from Tulsa OK. I am sure you are getting "The Rest of the Story" by now. My goal is to now binge watch the earlier episodes. Keep up the good work. Joe McKeel....... "Good Day"
