Why Comfortable Americans Are So Miserable | Dirty Jobs' Mike Rowe

The trades were never the problem. We were lied to about their value. Mike Rowe — host of Dirty Jobs and founder of the mikeroweWORKS Foundation — joins me to talk about the loneliness epidemic, the generational lie that success requires a four-year college degree, and why we need to start encouraging young people to pursue the trades before we lose the skills that keep this country running. We get into the Palisades fire, Spencer Pratt's run for mayor, Charlie Kirk, the problems with higher education, and what it actually looks like to influence the next generation toward meaningful work. Because if we're going to fix what's broken, we might want to start by teaching young people that a good life doesn't always come with a college diploma. Thank you to our sponsors!
