Rowe also discusses Discovery Channel's reboot of 'Dirty Jobs' and how the pandemic changed his perception of 'essential work.'

“Essential work has become headline news again… and with it, a heightened interest, I think, in the way we are all connected and the way with all these jobs really do keep civilized life on the rails,” Rowe says. “The essential challenge is to magnify that which is out of sight and therefore out of mind.”

Rowe says that the COVID-19 pandemic changed the public’s perception of our infrastructure, noting how so many office workers were able to seamlessly work from home thanks to fiber-optic cables that most of us will never see. But it also changed his perception on the role of work more broadly.

“Every now and then the headlines will catch up to the themes of a show, and when that happens, the show is suddenly made relevant in ways that the producers and the host and the network didn’t intend,” he says. That being said, Rowe is first and foremost a host and producer. And while he won’t be on-camera for the Fox Business program, his goal is very much in line what he is doing on“It’s very tempting, if you are in my position, to look beyond the entertainment value of a show, to try and find a larger theme, and then to try and tell a story about why that theme is important. The problem with doing that, is that it’s boring,” Rowe says. “It might be true! And I believe in my case it is.
