I don't get that appreciation shit... No one literally no one except for rare exceptions like police or medical personnel when they save your life do they ever get thanked. This dude is an asshole, like too many people nowadays... He gets it rough from people so he gets an attitude and takes it out on others... and the cycle perpetuates.. Like he doesn't seem to think there's a problem with collecting garbage at 6am, among other things... he has zero self awareness. I mean shit we all want praise but what he does just isn't any more important than any other job in the grand scheme so why does he deserve it, when the rest of us don't.

"Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God." - 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 KJV The Holy Bible says that you are a sinner, and without Jesus Christ, you will die in your sins and spend eternity burning in Hell. There is no sin that can enter Heaven. You must have your sins washed in the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ; he shed his blood for you and died on the cross of Calvary. 3 days later he rose from the dead, proving that he is God. Jesus Christ is the only way to Heaven - you must turn to him, trust him, believe on him and him alone for the salvation of your soul. "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law." - Romans 3:23-28 KJV

I have come to the realization (and most haven't figured it out) that it's not that poor people make bad decisions. It's in fact the opposite. People that consistently waste and make poor decisions become and stay poor. It's the same/opposite for rich people.

I volunteer to pick up garbage around the city and our apartments. This was a real eye-opener. Sadly, bottles are not recycled. I really respect this guy for what he has done. This job is hazardous waste, ( think needles, foil with fentanyl, adult diapers with pooh poop on them, shards of glass, pee in water bottles, used condoms, etc etc). My granddaughter loves the garbage man, she greets him often. One time he even came back with a gift for her. You guys have one of those jobs where no one really notices until it starts backing up. Thank you for all the hard work, good luck with your future.

It's almost like he is being paid to pick up my trash, and he's not just doing it out of the kindness of his heart. I never said his job isn't worthy of respect. I'm simply arguing that he's not "Sacraficing his body to dispose of all of your shit so you don't have to".

This has to be one of the best interviews on KZread. Raw uncut educational and entertaining. Hard to ask for more. It's an A plus.

I love how theo will gradually talk like his guest as the episode goes on I love it😂 I’m sure he doesn’t even know he’s doing it which makes it even more funny.

The New Orleans accent is very similar to the NYC accent.

This dude is such a genuine guy. Thanks for doing your job well, love to hear any person who loved their job. Youre a rockstar homie

My uncle was a garbage man for 35 years in Boston. He has a garage full of so much crazy antiques. He told me every single thing in there he found in the trash. Ppl had no clue what they were throwing away. Some of it is worth a damn amount of money. He has the clock is 3 feet tall. I forget the name of it but he told me it’s worth $5000.

This guest is better than all politicians. He may smell like crap while working, but he actually cleans up the streets and works hard every day. Respect!

Mad respect for you sanitation engineers, this was a nice eye opening episode.

I'm shocked that they make six figures. I vividly recall my sixth grade teacher telling us if we didn't shape up and study harder, we'd end up garbagemen. Now I get why, my teacher was probably just bitter because the sanitation workers made thrice as much as them.

What a cool ass dude and good at story telling. Theo knows the questions to ask as always. I was so locked in to this episode the whole time. Gawbage Gang!

Theo really started a great trend having working people coming on the show and sharing their stories. keep up the good work

This dude is awesome. Strange how this is one of the best interviews Theo has done. Dude is super relatable.

Theo’s “New York” accent that keeps sneaking in here and there is hysterical! This has been such a cool episode. So glad you do “average” folks with badass jobs and experiences, Theo. You’re THE GOAT!

@TheoVon - Please don't ever stop doing what you do. I love it when you have guests sometimes that are just regular people to see what their life is like. Not many pods will do this. It's different like you so just keep on killing the game of life sir!

I give so much props for sanitation workers. Always slow down for them

This is such a good episode. The dude is so naturally funny and it’s cool to just have normal people on. Great concept

I love Theo's concept for his podcast. Just a regular chat with people and industries he finds interesting & answering all the questions he ponders. Love these episodes.

I enjoyed this interview with Wayne and Theo. There was a great rapport with them, I learned a lot and it was fascinating to learn all about sanitation engineering from A to Z. Some stories were sad, but Theo made it hilarious, when he cracked up Wayne and then Wayne started telling us the funny tales. As a former Funeral Director/Embalmer I can relate to some of the grief he went through with trying to navigate busy Chicago streets downtown in a cargo van with only side mirrors having problems parking, being yelled at, and also dealing with some decomps at times, its a smell you never forget, or trying to get around the night before garbage was out for pickup and people didn't dispose their garbage correctly, and animals were getting into it, and it was strewn everywhere. I appreciate how hard he worked to do that and salt and plow and everything with pride. Gang baby. ❤

As a NYC civil servant, I appreciate this interview. i don't work for DSNY but I'm one of the mechanics that repairs and maintains the largest municipal fleet in the country. We certainly have stories too.

As a normal dude with a normal job, it’s pretty cool to see some props given to a normal dude with another normal job.

Theo does a great job of keeping the same level of respect and his same style no matter who he’s interviewing. Such an underrated quality.

Most legendary Theo Von segment happened in this episode. Owning the rich by feeding their dog your boogies. 22:28 Brilliant behind the scenes tactics of Theo.

Hello from Staten Island, NY..This was a great interview! Really enjoyed your stories. I have a few friends who were sanitation guys. My Dad was a lined men for the phone company many years 20 yrs and retired out. God Bless you guys and your beautiful family! Thanks for your service.

"if you pull a hair out of his beard it would test positive for 9 year olds" is beyond in every sense. Insane response time, delivery and the joke itself is the line of funny vs offense, holy fuck that was brilliant.

Genuine is the key word. Theo is just being himself. Most podcasts want the guest to be a big celeb or a scientist… Theo just genuinely wants to chat about garbage disposal with someone who knows how it works

Theo has a ease about him. He could talk to anyone and make them comfortable

Theo, I was a fan before this. But after hearing this I’m a huge fan. I am also a garbage/recycle man. It was a real treat hearing a real person being spoken to about real things.

Theo I appreciate that you bring on blue collar workers and I think my father would be likely one of the best guests you’ve ever had. He spent 30 years as bay commercial fisherman catching primarily shrimp and oysters. The information and detail as well as his extremely wild personality would have people geekin. He’s got stories for days that would have people listening

Shoutout to ALL sanitation workers! Truly an underrepresented trade while being an absolute necessity for every aspect of our society.

The fact that theo still has normal people guests is what makes me love this podcast

Love that you make a point to interview “normal people” because you know everyone has a story to tell and plays a part in this world. So wholesome and relatable.
