Mike Rowe Instagram – When Animal Lovers Eat Their Own

A quick word about last week’s episode of Dirty Jobs, and this week’s podcast. Both feature a woman named Stacey Shumacher.

Like everyone she employs at TCAP, (Texas Coalition for Animal Protection), Stacey wants to do something about the 6.3 million animals currently in shelters around the country, and the million or so unwanted strays that are euthanized every year. That number is way too high. Scandalously high, in my view, and I wanted to highlight her efforts to make things better. It’s also why she’s my guest on the first podcast of 2023.

Full disclosure, I didn’t want to talk to Stacey simply because she loves animals, or because she and her team have spayed and neutered over 670,000 cats – an excellent mission which I completely support. I wanted to talk to her because unlike a lot of self-proclaimed animal lovers, Stacey Schumacher also owns and operates a ranch, with her husband, Scott. And as a rancher, Stacey is keenly interested in helping people understand where their food comes from, and what it takes to get the steak on the table. This makes Stacey a person I think you should know.

There’s a widely held belief – especially among members of animal rights organizations – that farmers and ranchers can’t be animal lovers. I know I’m generalizing here, and I apologize to anyone in any of those organizations who believe otherwise. I mean no offense. But from what I’ve seen, farmers and ranchers are routinely targeted by animal rights groups. Certainly, there are instances where I think the targeting is justified, and we discuss that in this episode. But most of the farmers and ranchers I’ve met over the years care deeply about the animal kingdom – including the animals they raise for food. Very few, however, also run an organization like TCAP. For that reason, I wanted to have a more in-depth conversation with Stacey, and I’m glad I did. If you share my love of dogs and cats, along with my addiction to chewing and swallowing things, you’re gonna love this episode.

Mike Rowe Instagram – According to my cable guide, which is sometimes accurate, Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe is on Discovery for eighteen of the next twenty-four hours. Bias aside, I can’t think of a better way to ring in the new year than with a gentle reminder of what it looks like to work in places that don’t offer catered meals, meditations booths, manicured campuses, interactive walking trails, foosball, cornhole, red wine on tap, and yoga studios for their employees.

Our country is in the midst of redefining what it means to work for a living, and for a lot of people, this is it. This is their wish-fulfillment. To be taken care of. To be catered to. And to be fair, who can blame them? They are snowflakes, for sure, but we are the clouds from which the snowflakes fell. And many companies today are so desperate to attract workers, they’ll do whatever it takes to please them. I doubt that many have gone as far as the tech giants here in California, but these videos are real, and there are many others like them. Videos posted by employees that celebrate the opposite of ambition. The opposite of adversity. The opposite of discomfort. The opposite of work ethic.

Again, bias notwithstanding, thank God shows like #DirtyJobs and #DeadliestCatch and How America Works are out there, to introduce Americans to that part of our workforce keeps the lights on and the bridges standing and the crap flowing in the right direction. My advice on New Year’s Day, especially if you have kids in the house, is to watch Dirty Jobs and see what kind of conversation might ensue. Whatever the outcome, it’s a conversation worth having.

Meanwhile, there’s a new episode tonight at 8pm, and it’s awesome. The first job is “Pile-Jacketer”, and it’s a back breaker. The second is my day with “Concrete-Cleaner,” and it’s a ball-buster. More on both of those adventures later. Great guys doing essential work with lots of laughs, tonight at 8pm on @Discovery.

Happy New Year!
