It’s a dirty job, and Mike Rowe’s gotta do it. After over 100 episodes of salt mining and chick sexing (that’s sorting chickens, you degenerate), it’s becoming clear that the dirtiest job of all is probably hosting Dirty Jobs. But whether he’s elbow-deep in the beautiful miracle of equine procreation or wading through 17 different varieties of raw sewage, his self-deprecating wit and the downright earnestness with which he treats these vocations cut through the grime and keep us tuned in to his filthy, filthy shenanigans. All of which will continue with new episodes starting next Tuesday, Oct. 6 (Discovery, 9 p.m. ET).
Lucky for us, Rowe has accepted yet another unpleasant assignment: Dropping by the EW offices for a chat! So we’re opening the floor up to you. What questions would you like to ask the Representative of Repulsive, the Squire of Squalid, the Sultan of the Sullied? Post your queries by 10 a.m. ET Thursday and we’ll try to ask him as many as we can.
Remember to keep it, ahem, clean.

Can I get his phone number?
is he married? how does he like being a sex symbol?
I wonder how many times this question will be asked. No He is not,but has a mono-relationship with a woman in San Fransisco Do you really think Mike would hook up with some fan on the internet?
Are you gay or straight?
What are you into?
Sorry, but if you can’t tell Mike is A real man, you are not watching enough.
One of the reasons I watch Dirty Jobs is because of Mike. I’ve never seen him back away or lose his temper. In fact, he has about the best disposition of anyone I have ever seen. So, my question is, are there any outtakes of you losing your temper at a situation and has there ever been a dirty job you said “no way” to?
ooo, good one. I second.
That would have been my question, too. “What job did the producers tell you about that made you say ‘No effin’ way’?”
Have you ever said no to a job because it was just too dirty or dangerous? If so, what was the job.
I watch your show as often as I can. Your humor keeps me coming back for more. Keep up the good work. If I had a dirty job to send you I would. Hope you get plenty to keep you very busy.
Um…my question…is he gay? And, if so, does he like chubby men….?
I would like to say Ha Ha that’s a good one, but that question is just gross.
Do you think Patty the monkey was mean to you because she was secretly attracted to you?
What is a Dirty Job he would like to do again?
Have you ever gotten sick from something they make you do on the show?
That was my question. I wanted to know if he ever got queasy or gagged. And if he ever became emotionally upset after doing some of those jobs. For example, I watched an episode where he helped out in the La Brea tar pits, and then it switched to him helping with processing dead cows for meat, and I could NOT make myself watch it – that cow stuff probably would have made me cry afterwards.)
yeah – there have been episodes I’ve skipped because my gag reflexes were starting to kick in.
So Mike, when are you going to investigate Dirty Jobs in Scandinavia?
