I love when Theo tells a story that sounds like it happened to a 10 year old, and you ask him how old he was and he says: like, 34. Lol never gets old.

Theo: “you don’t have kids?!” Mike: “no..” Theo: “Whhaaaaaaattttt?” Bro I had the same reaction. Like meeting any adult that age without kids is a unicorn. Mike not having kids is just absolutely mind blowing. Seems like the perfect dude to be a dad.

This exchange is hilarious. Mike Rowe has always been very quick witted with straight laced satire... Theo is like a quick witted martian immigrant... 2 worlds collide here.
