I love how he has the biggest smile when telling every story. He has told these stories hundreds of times but it’s like he is reliving the moment over again every time and having just as much fun as he did 20 years ago.
I could listen to John all day. In my book he's a true hero for standing up for what is right. And he paid for it. I hope Trump will pardon him and give him his pension.
@@Mulchavelli Hunter Biden will probably get it for free for the positive press more than likely. Juliani was 100 percent the wrong person to brokerage that interaction. Yes I understand he had a guy but that guy should have asked someone else close to Trump besides RJ .
I’m only 2 mins I’m but just wanted to say John is literally the best story teller on any podcast I’ve seen him on. Excited for this. Thanks for having him on again.
I love hearing John's stories, especially long form. What an incredible human being and American!! Words cant express the admiration and respect I have for him, and thank you Julian for having him on. God bless these men and their families!
John is an awesome guest. I could listen to him tell stories all day. Bring him on as many times as you can (i haven't even watched this interview yet) .
Exactly a great story teller ..is what he was trained to do ...blow smoke up your ass and get you to believe it LOL Americans have to be the most stupidest people. They believe thier government agents LOL thanks for the belly laugh
I think John Kiriakou is the most interesting guest I've ever seen or heard on any podcast. He can make a 3 hour podcast go by in a blink of an eye. He has such a soft spoken, honest demeanor that can win you over quickly. Then you remember he's a trained spy and assassin that also had the balls to go against the CIA, FBI, president and expose them for being liars. John has had an amazing life.
John is my favorite guest of all time. Its a shame how hard it is to find any of his original or non guest content. I still cant believe he hasnt been on the shawn Ryan show yet, I think they would hit it off. Anyways great episode Julian. You dont get enough credit for being the first guy to interview alot of these guests that go on to have significant popularity.
John is amazing! The man was nice enough to send me an autographed copy of one of his books to me at my old job. It's one of my most cherished books. He's such an incredible human being. I don't think the younger generation truly understands the debt of gratitude that we owe this man for having the courage to do the right thing when the most powerful parts of the government wanted to keep doing the opposite. He truly needs to be in our history books.
I’ve followed several of Kiriakou’s videos for awhile and have always been impressed with his takes. After watching him dismantle Bustamante, our intel community needs more of men and women like him.
John is one of the best guests I've ever seen on podcasts. He's done so many now that he really doesn't have anymore stories left from back when he was with the CIA.
I am from a family of Lebanese origin, and hearing John speak about his Greek heritage, the similarities are vast. The food, the dances, the music are all of the same ethnic type, I am a Maronite Catholic, by birth, but I only went to Roman Catholic Churches my entire life. I did go to a wedding in Birmingham, AL, that was at a Maronite Church, and it reminded me of a Greek Wedding I had been to before. I could listen to John on podcasts all day.
BEST PODCAST INTERVIEW EVER!! Over 22,000 views at this point and only 1,100 likes? Shame on all of you that watched this, liked it, and didn't give Julian a thumbs up!!!
YES! Mr. Kiriakou is one of the most compelling guests on any pod he appears on, I’ve been looking forward to you two sitting down for a long while. Excited to watch!
The department of energy needs to be looked into, the wmds in Iraq, the killing of nikola Tesla, the lack of infrastructure upgrades in 50 years, etc etc
great interview. Kiriakou is always an engaging speaker to listen to, but man you definitely have a way of making a conversation natural. Great attention to the fine details of his past as well with natural interjections, etc. well done as always!
holy shit I been literally wanting a long form with this freaking legend. Can't wait to dig in and Thanks as always for being you Julian, Keep digging brother!
Love your podcast Julian ! Been watching you for last few months while driving for work . Probably one of the coolest dudes and best story teller so far ! Could listen to him for hours . Keep up the great work
I just came across your channel today & I’m glad I did. Never heard of either one of you before but what an interesting conversation!! The rapport the two of you have was fun to listen to. John has lived an incredible life with some amazing stories.
I've seen dozens and dozens of interviews and documentaries with John, and never new that he had his stomach removed. I thought he had just dieted and worked out. Very nice Julian that you got the back story on his weight loss.
Felix Leiter!! (The CIA guy in all the Bond movies) He's always played by different actors, but every time, he's always named Felix Leiter! Loved the reference about that, and that's so funny how he talked about MI-6 guys randomly popping up while at some undercover dinner party or something. "Hello John!" "Hello Nigel..." lol, that's great.
Absolutely one of the greatest podcast/interview guests of allllll time!!!! Fascinating to listen to no matter who he is speaking with and seems like an extremely genuine individual no matter what the topic of conversation is. Goes without saying our government would be in a much better place with people like John still being there and doing the job. Excellent job Julian and hope you continue to have him on when possible.
I’ve seen pretty much every one of John’s pods interviews and was prepared to skip halfway when it became redundant but credit to both, I learned so much and heard so many new facets nobody had asked before
Kiriakou's Iraq insights were excellent. The fact that some gov folks ideologically wish war on countries without thinking twice about real world effects is astoundingly absurd. Keep fighting the good fight peeps, america doesn't need war to be a great country.
John Kirikaou is my all time favorite on any podcast. He such a good story teller and has live such an interesting life. He’s a blessing to our country🇺🇸 P.S. @Trump should’ve appointed him director of the CIA
I first saw John on a show called reality asserts itself. It was multiple hours long. I think it was like nine parts about 9 years ago. Its still on YT.
@@JulianDoreyyou're doing great brother. You asked really good questions you're very engaged and you've really improved especially over the last hundred episodes or so. You should be proud of yourself
John really is a top story teller of all time. I always try hard to determine truth from fiction with him just because some of his stories can seem quite fanciful. Having said that he is a very likeable guy and very entertaining and knowledgeable.
Nailed this, like out of the park !!! We've all seen other interviews with this guest, but you discovered stuff maybe you shouldn't have. You made this guest feel so comfortable he opened up to you. Your gonna be ultra famous Julian. You will have the #1 show within a year. Just keep getting new and incredible guests. When you do get a guest like this do the same. Peace and love ❤️ ✌️.
100% of what he said about his gun experience is bullshit. And anyone who’s even casually into guns can tell that. Really, they gave him a Desert Eagle? Ok. His company car was probably a monster truck, by that logic. Interesting interview, for sure, but if he’s lying about his gun training, he’s probably lying about other stuff too.
Hi You; As a french Man in his fifties, remembering the First Gulf War, it's very emotional to hear this Man telling this story so thank you for the job you did ;-)
Subscribe so I can buy John some Dubya M Dee
Sup homey!

Who’s in the center pic? Sinatra?
@ yes
Good job, your pods are better than rogans , u ask great questions and get deep into it, keep it up man.
John has to be one of the best podcasts guests ever.
Agreed
Bruh I can’t believe you got him back on. Lets gooool😎
Really?
Forreal I love when I see a new pod with him as the guest
He's to podcasts what Norm Macdonald was to talk shows.
I love how he has the biggest smile when telling every story. He has told these stories hundreds of times but it’s like he is reliving the moment over again every time and having just as much fun as he did 20 years ago.
John Kirikaou!!! My favorite guest on every podcast of all time! This is sick
LFG
I Can listen to this guy for hours🤠
@ same dude
Best guest ever, love John! His Sputnik radio is awesome!
I agree
I could listen to John all day. In my book he's a true hero for standing up for what is right. And he paid for it. I hope Trump will pardon him and give him his pension.
Lol for $2 million directly to Trumps pocket. You must’ve missed the episode where that was going rate.
He said mayorJuliani not Trump if I remember correctly you can always time stamp it to back up that negative claim about Trump.
@@Mulchavelli Hunter Biden will probably get it for free for the positive press more than likely. Juliani was 100 percent the wrong person to brokerage that interaction. Yes I understand he had a guy but that guy should have asked someone else close to Trump besides RJ .
@@markyost3you remember when he said you don’t talk to Giuliani? You don’t think the same goes for trump? Don’t be naive.
Accurate
John is a real one! He is one of my favorite guests! He really has changed my perspective! Also takes so much guts to do what he did!
Been longing to hear another podcast from John Kiriakou. I can't get tired listening to him.
Same same
Yup!
Longing tho?
Maaan saaame he has great Charisma but also very articulated with storytelling and picturing his words and answers!
Right
John Kiriakou is the professor who's students hang around after class to listen to his tales. Great storyteller.
I’m only 2 mins I’m but just wanted to say John is literally the best story teller on any podcast I’ve seen him on. Excited for this. Thanks for having him on again.
49.30 - CIA put SADDAM into power.
Thats exactly what it is... a bunch of stories.. 95% of what the guy says is likely half truths or outright lies
I love hearing John's stories, especially long form. What an incredible human being and American!! Words cant express the admiration and respect I have for him, and thank you Julian for having him on. God bless these men and their families!
It was my pleasure to have John in here!
@@JulianDoreyyoure an amazing conversationalist
John Kiriakou: *shows up on a podcast*
Podcast audience: THAT'S WHY HE'S THE GOAT!
John is an awesome guest. I could listen to him tell stories all day. Bring him on as many times as you can (i haven't even watched this interview yet) .
He's great -- got another episode with him dropping right after this one
@@JulianDoreyI click on every video John is in. He’s a great guest with a wealth of knowledge.
John is a fantastic story teller & a great guest everywhere he goes ..... I really hope he sits down with Shawn Ryan
Exactly a great story teller ..is what he was trained to do ...blow smoke up your ass and get you to believe it LOL Americans have to be the most stupidest people. They believe thier government agents LOL thanks for the belly laugh

He was an analyst. Not an assassin
@@Last_Chance. He *WAS* in the operation later... you'd know that if you listened to the podcast.
I don’t know this guy but judging from the comments, you’ve smashed it again with the guest you have. Honestly this channel is brilliant.
Thank you brotha, I think you're gonna like John

Let's goooooo Kirikaou is definitely my favorite guest
Finally had to get him on!
I’ve followed several of Kiriakou’s videos for awhile and have always been impressed with his takes. After watching him dismantle Bustamante, our intel community needs more of men and women like him.
John just seems like such a genuinely solid dude. Wouldn’t mind being friends with him
He is
Imagine having some beers with this guy and the stories he could tell!!
@@B0xlife1 next thing you know it’s the following day
I’d even help this man move, and I hate helping my friends move.
kinda was his jobs ...
Thank god we have people like John
Great guy!
@@JulianDorey any chance of getting Obama on? 😅
Please don't @@JoJoRogain
This guy has the best stories of all podcasts I’ve watched on this channel.
Agreed n he’s a great story teller as well

I was in Thessolonikia as a tourist and got invited to a wedding just because I was walking around!
You literally made me so happy bringing John on the show the man is a living legend
First episode I’ve ever seen of Julian Dorsey. And I’m
So impressed
3 hours long - blah, blah, blah... when do they get to the juicy stuff ?
I could listen to John talk every day and it would never get old
I could listen to jon for hours ive watched every one his interviews on youtube hes just the best, period
BEST PODCAST INTERVIEW EVER!! Over 22,000 views at this point and only 1,100 likes? Shame on all of you that watched this, liked it, and didn't give Julian a thumbs up!!!
It’s a version of passive-aggressiveness on the internet. Makes me mad.
YES! Mr. Kiriakou is one of the most compelling guests on any pod he appears on, I’ve been looking forward to you two sitting down for a long while. Excited to watch!
Exceeded expectations, looking forward to part 2!
The department of energy needs to be looked into, the wmds in Iraq, the killing of nikola Tesla, the lack of infrastructure upgrades in 50 years, etc etc
He died on the 33rd floor then Trump’s uncle evaluated his files … strange world
My favorite guest, and such a great human being.
Awesome dude!
great interview. Kiriakou is always an engaging speaker to listen to, but man you definitely have a way of making a conversation natural. Great attention to the fine details of his past as well with natural interjections, etc. well done as always!
Bro!! 2 parts, hell yeah. When he hung up the phone with his lawyer all excited, and you hit him with “yall got the 2 mill?” I lost it.
Nope, just good news from another person he sued.🤦♂️
"Im a very litigious person" smfh😅
My favorite podcast guest I’ve ever heard. I can’t get enough of this guys stories
holy shit I been literally wanting a long form with this freaking legend. Can't wait to dig in and Thanks as always for being you Julian, Keep digging brother!
Loved so many elements of this Episode. The stories, the pace, the comradery, "The Other Guys" references...outfreakinstanding.
This is outstanding! Great interview. I could listen to Jon every day for a year.
Love your podcast Julian ! Been watching you for last few months while driving for work . Probably one of the coolest dudes and best story teller so far ! Could listen to him for hours . Keep up the great work
I knew this would be a good episode thanks for having john on ur show. U got the best podcast on youtube currently.
That was the most enjoyable podcast that I've seen in quite some time. I couldn't find part 2. Again, that was an awesome episode.
John Kirikaou is one of the all time best interviews on TH-cam.
I'm a simple man. I see John Kiriakou does a 3 hour podcast, I watch.
As you should
Julian, please bring on John more! He is a really interesting guest, probably the most interesting you’ve had on. What a great podcast!! ❤
Just saw the post about one of your videos being demonetized. Hope this can help a bit!
Oof hope he thanks you.
Thanks, haha 😅
Can't get enough of this guy. His stories and the telling of his stories are amazing. Can not hear enough of hearing him
AWESOME GUEST! I could listen to this guys stories all day. Julian great work brother 🫡
I just came across your channel today & I’m glad I did. Never heard of either one of you before but what an interesting conversation!! The rapport the two of you have was fun to listen to. John has lived an incredible life with some amazing stories.
How is John not more famous and been on every podcast?
*I could sit and listen to John tell stories all day! He literally makes me want to start a podcast just so I could have him on my show.*
As John is telling any of his life experiences you can literally picture being there or feel like you actually met the people he talks about😎😎
I've seen dozens and dozens of interviews and documentaries with John, and never new that he had his stomach removed. I thought he had just dieted and worked out. Very nice Julian that you got the back story on his weight loss.
Absolutely love John. He's a special guy. Julian is also the best podcast host on TH-cam too
Thank you so much!
Felix Leiter!! (The CIA guy in all the Bond movies) He's always played by different actors, but every time, he's always named Felix Leiter!

John Kiriakou I've been seeing this guy since he been on Danny's Jones Koncrete podcast.
This is gonna be a great episode
Kiriakou's Iraq insights were excellent. The fact that some gov folks ideologically wish war on countries without thinking twice about real world effects is astoundingly absurd. Keep fighting the good fight peeps, america doesn't need war to be a great country.
Great books, great podcasts, very eloquent guy.
John is one of the best interviews well done Jules!
I love listening to John , he is such a great communicator. Glad to see you finally have him on brother 🙏 keep up the good work! 🤞
There can’t be a single person on the planet that doesn’t love listening to John tell stories
Thanks John & Julian!!!
Love your channel Julian. I don’t know why you don’t have well over a million subscribers. Slowly but surely.
one of my favorite guests with one of my favorite interviewers 🥳🥳
I have only just found Julian's channel and am seriously impressed. John Kiriakou is a seriously impressive talent.
John Kirikaou is my all time favorite on any podcast. He such a good story teller and has live such an interesting life.
He’s a blessing to our country🇺🇸
P.S. @Trump should’ve appointed him director of the CIA
Wondering when you filmed this! John can talk about ANYTHING. Love him.
Brilliant interview, great repore bet you and John ❤❤😂
John Kirikaou is the greatest! Such great stories told so well. I could listen to him all day. 😎
The goat of podcast guests in my opinion
When John speaks I listen, what a hero, not just an American hero, a human rights hero, if he was from North Korea he’d still be a hero
Talk about another banger from JD !!
Fascinating guy to listen to, seen most of his podcast appearances but still grabs my attention every time. Great podcast Julian.
Been waiting for this one 👍👍
Julian I’m a fan from the beginning, John I’m a fan since your first podcast with Julian (your newsletter is insane !)
Much love !

How? By revealing secrets?
Great episode Julian. God bless you John
Kiriakou is a legend.
Agreed
Julian, I’m hooked on every podcast and you do a great job of teasing out details that otherwise could be completely glossed over. Great job man!
