Why aren’t we pushing more young people toward the trades—and what’s the real cost of ignoring them?
Dr. Drew reunites with longtime friend and outspoken commentator Adam Carolla for a raw, thought-provoking conversation about work ethic, opportunity, and the future of the American workforce.
Adam shares his unfiltered perspective on the growing need for skilled trades, the cultural stigma surrounding blue-collar work, and why he believes we’re failing the next generation by not creating real pathways to success—especially in an era of rising AI uncertainty.
He also opens up about his own journey—from digging ditches and learning carpentry the hard way to taking a risk on comedy—and the mindset it takes to completely change your life.
