Documenting Life ~ Tastes Like Chicken!

Mike Rowe and the Discovery Channel take an unsanitary look at the dirty jobs that people do everyday... From one fine mess to another, Rowe demonstrates how pig farmers, garbage collectors and other unkempt heroes keep the U.S and now, world clean make life sane for the rest of us.

As a Geoduck (pronounced Gooie-Duck) Farmer.. and what the HELL is a goeduck exactly? Mike Rowe finds himself waist deep in the ice cold waters of Puget Sound, digging for what else? Geoducks!!! A Goeduck is a special breed of clam. It buries itself nearly three feet underground. Perverse side-jokes are made repeatedly throughout the episode as to the shape and extendability of the Geoduck. The episode completes with Mike enjoying the delicacy sauted with onions... Great for laughs and an eduction of a little known delicacy. (***) 3-Star Rating.
