This guy sounds so nice but at the same time sounds like he'll end your life while smiling and telling you about his favorite comic books lmao
@mattzobian
Holy cow, this Kiriakou can tell a story, and he has lots of them. Gotta buy some of his books. Dude has seen and done some things.
@dkgrinder
Such a great storyteller. His voice tone and inflections really add a lot to the listening experience
@squoblat
Brother, I have never sat and watched 6 hours straight on Youtube before in my life. For a new channel, you've smashed this out of the park. You let the guest speak, clearly did your homework and only interjected when it was actually good for the story telling.
@Tjploucha4
I’ve seen many John interviews and he has never spoken to such operational detail as here. It was great to not hear constant interruptions or attempts of grand standing. Amazing job bro
@Stewart5225
This interviewer is World Class! Dalton had well thought out questions and encouraged John to go into depth.
@JohnAlmos-g8b
That last story was nuts
@georgegi4062
Good job mate!! Thank you for letting him tell the story! Most Hosts just interrupt all the time with questions and we can follow! Very good job my friend! Amazing interview! 👍👍
@Lathe-Lizard
What I came to say is just an echo. John is so so good at telling his stories. I think many hosts would mess it up interjecting too often, but both of you together make a superb interview. Well done
John Kiriakou served 15 years in the CIA as a Case Officer and later as CIA's Head of Counterterrorism Operations in Pakistan where he lead the raid that captured Abu Zubaydah. After his CIA career, he blew the whistle on the CIA's Enhanced Interrogation Program.
