Hey Mike, Hunter is so excited to see the show. He tells everyone to watch him on discovery channel with Mike Rowe. Well he wanted me to write to you and say hi. we have some pictures we would like to send to you.wemathias_blood76@yahoo.comwe think you would like them. thanks
Guilty...lol Thank you. My son was so excited about just meeting Mike, he, we never thought he would actually get to say a few words on his all time favorite show. We even had a popcorn party in his honor. Silly, but it really made his day.
That was really cute!! Hunter trying to repeat what Mike told him to say... it came out rather well. I don't know who was more pleased with the final result, Hunter or Mike. He was such a natural, and so unafraid of the camera.
Has to be the best segment so far. I was in utter wonder at the whole visit with Bob. What a natural he was too!! I absolutely loved his inventions, esp. the pig-fooder/feeder motorized cart!! Mike had a fun time with that one!!

P.S. I bet Mike now has a fan for life, with respect to Hunter!!
Yes for life in Respect in Hunter, but also in Bob. He has been beeming since he did the show. He thought the crew was a great group, who he said, "Made it easy to be me."
That show with the pig farmer and that absolutely disgusting food processor was the best you have done. Working second shift at your favorite former employee (QVC) I always tape your show, Hilarious.
How can I purchase a hat and shirt that Mike Rowe had on during the show??? The hat if anything would be great to give me son who LOVED!!! the show. you can email me at dludlow@co.ho.md.us if you have information.
I'm a BIG fan of Dirty Jobs just because Mike Rowe is such a likeable guy! After seeing the Las Vegas pig farmer show, I had to respond! That show was by far, THE FUNNIEST SHOW EVER! I was laughing outloud the whole pig segment. Mike and Bob should go out on the comedy circuit. What a gas those two were! All the inventions were pretty cool, except how they had to pull latex, and other real garbage out. Yuck! I loved watching the two of them climb up the ladder to the stew pot, and later slop the food into the motorized cart. Dumping food is their bowl was a futile act; just dump it on their heads. They can eat it off of each other! Please show this again soon, and go back for another extended segment visit. This was the best of the best! Can't wait to see it again!
I kept waiting for Mike to say," Well, this is all the stuff that you turn away at the buffet, and in turn the pigs turn it into bacon so you in turn can again turn it away to be brought back here. And so continues the circle." That segment in my opinion has to be the dirtiest ever.....How he can live there I will never know.

I remember seeing that. Whenever Mike interacts with the kids its always good tv because you never know what they will say next.
It is fun seeing Mike react with children. Both on TV and in person. He was great with Hunter. Mike let Hunter follow him around the Pig Farm the entire day. Hunter talked his ear off and he seemed perfectly at ease and interested, (even if Mike had no idea what Hunter was talking about) to Hunters conversation.

Thanks! Tell Hunter he did a terrific job!
I will talk to the owner. I am not exactly sure if they have more, but I will email you once I find out.
Thank you from Hunter, he tells everyone he is famous. What a memory!

Unfortunately, it is legal. It is on county land, surrounded by the city of North Las Vegas. I live a couple of miles away, and when the wind is blowing from that direction. the smell is overpowering.
it really wasnt that bad, most of the parts where they disregarded hygeine were before they cooked it. Once they cooked it all the bacteria would be killed and from the cooker it went right into a truck i think.

Funny, seems that farm was there BEFORE you came and built/bought your house.
I live about 5 miles away, in NLV (Aliante) which is still a great area without the smell.
I find it disgusting that the builders and the residents are giving this poor guy so much grief. He's been there A LOT longer than you.
The Vegas Valley is huge, you didn't have to move there. Deal with it.
