Not All Knowledge Comes From College.

I Come From A Blue Collar Family, But My Personal Life Isn't. I Didn't Get The Gene That My Grandfather Had In Spades. He Was A Local Hero. Built The Church That I Went To. Built The House I Grew Up In. Steamfitter, Pipefitter, Electrician, Mechanic And Plumber. I Wanted To Do Those Things. But It Just Didn't Come Easy.

People Like To Cherry-pick The Parts Of Their Career That They're Either In The Midst Of Or That They're The Most Proud Of, But The Truth Is Careers And Lives Are Tapestries.

I Rarely Do Anything On The Show By Myself. I Dont Want It To Be About Me. Squatting In The Sewer In San Francisco, Its Really Hot, Were Up To Our Knees In A River Of Crap. Rats And Cockroaches Are All Over. I Would Never, Ever Walk Into That Environment, Except For The Fact That The Guy Who Does It Every Day Is Squatting Next To Me.

Good Jobs Look A Lot Like Kids Playing And Adults Working.

I Wouldn't Wish Any Specific Thing For Any Specific Person - It's None Of My Business. But The Idea That A Four-year Degree Is The Only Path To Worthwhile Knowledge Is Insane. It's Insane.
