Insurance isn't one size fits all, and shopping for it shouldn't feel like squeezing into something that just doesn't fit. That's why drivers have enjoyed Progressive's Name Your Price tool for years. With the Name Your Price tool, you tell them what you want to pay, and they show you options that fit your budget. Enough hunting for discounts, trying to calculate rates, and tinkering with coverages. Maybe you're picking out your very first policy, or maybe you're just looking for something that works better for you and your family.
Either way, they make it simple to see your options. No guesswork, no surprises. Ready to see how easy and fun shopping for car insurance can be? Visit progressive.com and give the Name Your Price tool a try. Take the stress out of shopping and find coverage that fits your life on your terms.
Progressive Casualty Insurance Company and Affiliates. Price and coverage match limited by state law.

People say to me, Mike, well, are you ever going to run out of dirty jobs? And I say, not this season. I know you love that, America.
The great dirty secret of dirty jobs, we probably featured 45 multi-millionaires on that show. You would have never known it because they were covered in shit or something worse.

**Graham Stephan** (1:13)
You became famous showing America the jobs that we all depend on. Why did we stop respecting these jobs?

**Jack Selby** (1:21)
I think the fault has to do with our tendency to resent that which we rely upon. What about the fact that for every five tradespeople who retire, to replace them? I don't have to be an economist to tell you that. That's not sustainable.
There are seven million able-bodied men right now who are not only not working, they're not looking for work. That's never happened in our country, not in peacetime. Anyway, seven million men.

**Graham Stephan** (1:50)
What do you think happened? Mike Rowe, thank you so much for coming on The Iced Coffee Hour.

**Jack Selby** (2:00)
Well, you're welcome. But did I really come on your hour or did you come to the place where I record?

**SPEAKER_4** (2:05)
We came to San Francisco just for you. Well, we're so excited for this.

**Jack Selby** (2:09)
Then let me officially thank you for doing that. I know it's a pain in the ass to travel these days, especially in the San Francisco where half the runways are closed for no good reason.

**Graham Stephan** (2:19)
Well, for me, this is big because I've been a huge fan of you and Dirty Jobs. I grew up watching Dirty Jobs and in fact, you inspired this, I kept it up briefly on my channel. It's called Undercover Millionaire. Well, what I did is I worked these jobs that you would have no idea made a whole bunch of money. Window washing, this kid made $1,000 a day. Car washing, this kid made $500 a day.
Dog walking and running a dog business, that was making $1,500 a day. So I found these jobs that were making a whole bunch of money, and then from doing that, people would reach out to me. Incredible businesses and you were the inspiration for that.

**Jack Selby** (3:01)
Well, wow. Thank you. That was a big part of the thesis of the show. That didn't get talked about enough. It was the underpinning of entrepreneurship. First and foremost, it was a TV show. It had to have some entertainment spectacle to it. So, it was always an exploding toilet or some misadventure, an animal husbandry or some crazy thing that would get you to watch. But if you really paid attention, as you obviously did over time, we did 350 of those things. And you would almost always find in every episode, not in every segment, but in every episode, you would find a buried love letter to entrepreneurship, and you would find a rumination on the dignity of work, and you would find humor that often exists on job sites, but doesn't get baked into a lot of popular portrayals of work. The great dirty secret of dirty jobs, which nobody really believes to this day, but you will because you watch for all these reasons.
We probably featured 40 to 45 multimillionaires on that show.
You would have never known it, because they were covered or something worse.

**Graham Stephan** (4:19)
What's the job that made the most money that would shock people?

**Jack Selby** (4:23)
The answer will be one of the segments that was really about entrepreneurship. Again, it's the story nobody tells, but the business of mastering a trade and taking the reverse commute.
In other words, seeing where everybody else is going, and totally taking your passion and your dreams and setting them off to the side and saying, no, I'm going in the other direction. I'm going to find the opportunity. I'm going to get great at it.
