@@iiTzStoneyy how it must feel if you’re pinned down and taking fire and the A10 comes in with that gun. It’s sounds like it’s ripping open reality and grinding people through the gates of hell
Can we give a HUGE hats off to your editor? They absolutely crush your videos and spark such emotion through the cuts. That brrrtt at the end was the chefs kiss to finish off the preview and gave me chills! Bravo sir bravo! 👏
Yeah, the interviewer saying “so you’ve k a lot of people”. In war they’re called “enemy” , and each one you get is one less that can get you or your buddies.
These guys saved my life and others, more than I can recall. We made it home, because of these guys. It is an absolute surreal feeling when something on your side, rips thru the mountains, tipping the scale on your survival.
Running into a pilot who supported you in the ground is a crazy feeling. I met an Apache pilot who had supported me in Iraq during a mission about three years later when we were both assigned to West Point.
My pops was force recon in nam he died 3 years back i was born in 94 some 30 years after nam .... he didnt talk alot about the war just boot but 2 days after his passing my mom recieves a fb message from some dude in cali saying he knew my dad he was a hell of a marine and great man and a hero(pops x wife stole his blues and medals so i didnt kniw what exactly he did just that he was a marine) well dude came on shirt nitice from ca to co to see pops off and after the funeral we sat down for lunch and he told me everything. He then told me theres some one i need to meet a few weeks later he came back with another man who was wearing an army aircav hat. And they told me the most impactfull thing to ever happen to me . Aparantly pops got hit his squad was pinned and this legend flew in against orders to rescue them he saved pops in 64 so i could be born in 94 and he defo remembered my dad (said he was the loudest asshole he ever met louder than the huey lol wich is so damn accurate i know its true)
I was an A-10 Warthog crew chief at Shaw AFB in South Carolina. Amazing plane and pilots. It’s a tank in the sky. Hard to bring down and easy to patch up. The energy absorption foam in the wings and fuselage are definitely a game changer for AAA and small arms rounds. Desert Storm was a busy time for a younger me
I was Crew Chief on 141's back in the mid 70's at Charleston. Your guys would drop by for a few hours (Officers club?? LOL). When my bird was gone without me, I'd work Transient MX. C5's, 130's, NASA T38s, and the bad boy A10. I'd block 'em in, kick the tires and top 'em off and block 'em out. Kinda fun. Gotta close up view of that Vulcan. Depleted uranium and all that good stuff. Huge fan of that bird.😮
@@jojodiver8706 During the winter on the flight line we would warm up the engines and hydraulics and heat up ourselves by standing behind the turbine engines. Nice and toasty. Charleston was a nicer area than Sumter. Lucky
There was an A-10 at an air show in Duluth, MN I was at a number of years ago. It wasn’t roped off so you get right up to it hands on. I stood right in front of that GAU-8 and just thought, “My God….the horror of this unleashing would be unimaginable.” I even stuck my fingers into the barrels to feel the rifling and then the size of those 30mm rounds becomes tangible. What an incredible bird!! 🇺🇸👍
As a pilot myself and avid listener of the show I really appreciate you shining lights on our fellow MIL pilots. They train hard are smart and have one hell of a story.
I work at a base with a wing of A-10’s. They have a practice range and I get the privilege to see and hear them work. Brrrrrrrrrttttttttt! Makes me smile every time no matter how many times!
I was driving with my family up I-15 between Mesquite, Arizona and St. George, Utah going through "the gorge". Basically, its like driving on a freeway through Zions National Park with high red rock cliffs on either side. Maybe 1000 feet wide with the cliffs about 1000 feet over head. When suddenly 2x A-10's drop into the canyon flying maybe 500 feet over head, and were beneath the cliff edges. They flew at what seemed like only 100 mph (and followed the I-15). I just remember being surprised at how slow and agile they were as they turned back and forth. Then they kept flying on up the freeway around a road bend, and I never saw them again. The coolest thing ever.
I've been censored so many times at this point I don't know if you'll see this, but this interview is why this podcast always amazes me. You get some great guest on here and as a long time aviation fanatic myself, I can't wait to see this interview. Nice work Shawn Ryan, you really are doing amazing things with your show.

I listened to this entire podcast on Spotify, it’s about 4hours. The conversation between Ryan and Stark was one of the best. It didn’t feel like an interview, it was a conversation. I’m a woman and I loved every second. Thank you both for your resilience and service. Much respect from Utah ❤️
My Grandson and I really loved the A10. We both loved the way it looked and the mission they were made for. Every year we went to the Reno air races and spent time checking it out and talking with the pilot and crew. Thanks for all you do for our nation.
Older sea bee here. We did our combat training with the marines. Them ol guys from the Vietnam era that we’re bout to retire was telling me about puff the magic dragon. C130s with multiple mini guns. It was in our manual they could put a round every square inch of a football field in seconds. This is just from memory though. Also flechette rounds out of a 106 was bad news and banned. Grizzly ol dudes was our cadre. Much respect for all our millitary. We need every tooth on the gears. Thanks Shawn from mighty mo.
I remember meeting an A-10 pilot in Kyrgyzstan on my way back from Afghanistan and thanked him a lot. I was terrified at night that we'd be included in one of their gun runs. I took my glint tape off and would hold it out at arms length and would follow the planes. haha. June/July 2005 in a valley off of the Pech River Valley. Amazing pilots.
Thank God for the pilots who protect our soldiers. God speed. It takes a certain breed of man to handle the G’s. “I feel the need, the need for speed.”

I cannot wait for this one. I live in a very rural area where A-10's flew over often. My uncle talks about the time he was dozing in the field and he watched them make a practice strafe run over the field. Good memories hearing these things fly over my land. Make me a proud American!
Awesome man! I love seeing my AF brothers get their stories documented on here too. I would love to hear from some Combat Controllers or TACP guys especially.
Cool, just not the ones who refused to carry weapons, or pull guard duty on their own track or basically do anything at all when they got attached to us doggies. Get the other guys, the ones who do their jobs and worked well with us. Some of them are absolute rock stars. Some of them are total zero's. Unfortunately, I kept running across the latter.
Excellent!, As a former A-10 Crew Chief, these pilots are amazing, the highlight of my deployments were OEF/OIF 2003. supporting our pilots, and guys on the ground was priority. no matter what time, day or night, they call the A-10's, we launched, recovered, reloaded, launched.. 104th FW , Barnes MAP, Westfield , MA. 387th AEG.
I try to watch every interview on your channel. But this one, i had to set a reminder. Thank you for everything you do. I got to work a lot of fighters in my Air Force career a10 and mq9 were two of them.
The greatest close air support plane ever made but the US Air Force has been trying to retire the A-10 for years. Meanwhile, the A-10 is front and center in the latest Air Force recruitment ad.
I served 6 years in the Air Force as a flight-line jet engine maintainer on several different aircraft including the B-1b, U-2 and the Buff but my all time favorite bird has always been the A-10. I hope the DoD makes whatever moves necessary to keep the A-10 fully mission capable for decades to come. Imo it’s the Air Force’s greatest asset in direct support of boots on the ground and as cool as the F-35 is, it’ll never replace the hog👊🏻
I flew AC-130U boats, so CAS is near and dear to my heart. A-10s were our CAS brothers. Dudes on the ground were never so happy than to hear us check in overhead.
Shawn, have been following you for years, the quality of your content, your guests and your editing is superb. Congratulations on your progress and achievements… and thank you!
Shawn, you have done a fantastic job of assembling some very talented editors and producers. Your show's production value is off the charts! Well done, fine sir!
@ The hope it gives the soldiers. Due to the nature of how the A 10 operates and the unmistakable sound of the gun, it marks the turn of the tide of battle.
Thank you for you bothe taking the time to spread true & honest information. God Bless America 🇺🇸 & THANK YOU BOTH & to ALL who’ve served . Saluting 🫡 you both from Louisiana. ✌🏽❤️🇺🇸
Love all of your stuff Shawn! This one i can't wait to hear, iam a construction contractor and one of the remodels we are doing the customer was a "Hog" pilot during the Gulf wars. He had a barrel from the Avenger mounted on a plaque with a commemorative scribed plaque with his call sign given to him. He asked at the very beginning of the project (not knowing yet he was a pilot) if I could hang a barrel in his mancave. I thought "sure" (thinking it's a rifle barrel or some antique) and then he showed it to me and my jaw dropped.
I want to thank the Lord Jesus Christ for hearing and answering my prayers, thank You, Lord! May the Holy Spirit continue to guide us in sharing Your unconditional love. On another note, trusting the process really does bring great rewards. Working with Melissa Jonas Richard has positively impacted my financial journey, and her advice has helped me grow. If you’re considering a change, don’t hesitate and stay disciplined it could be just the opportunity you’ve been looking for!
Oh my goodness, I’m so happy to hear that! Melissa is amazing. I was skeptical at first, but her approach to crypto and stock investments is next level. I started small, but now my portfolio is way better than I ever imagined. She’s really professional and has been verified by major agencies like the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Honestly, I wouldn’t have believed it if I hadn’t experienced it myself.
Same here! I heard about her from a colleague at work, and I’m from the UK, by the way. Melissa is incredibly skilled, and what I love is that she’s honest and transparent. It’s not some quick schemes you see everywhere, she really educates you along the way. I’m seeing consistent returns every month. I’m so grateful!
G’day from Sydney! I can’t thank Melissa enough, she has such a good grasp of the markets and knows exactly when to move. I was drowning in debt, but now I’m living comfortably and my portfolio’s been doing really well over the past year thanks to her advice. She’s got a proven strategy, and it’s backed by multiple agencies like Forbes , the International Blockchain Association, Wall Street Financial Insights and even ASIC has also endorsed her expertise. The woman is verified!
Crewed the A 10 at Myrtle Beach AFB. I previously was stationed at George AFB working with the Wild Weasels. My sister was dying from a long bout with cancer and wanted to get closer to home. I applied for a BOP as I was stationed in the dessert long enough to be eligible. The A 10; after working 105’s and F 4’s, and OV 10’s, was a dream come true, beautiful machine as a maintenance troop. Loved it, and we could turn that machine to be back in the sky in very short order. A real dooms day piece of a Flying Fortress. Glad to see it’s continued to be part of the inventory.
Thank you for your service. During the late 80s early 90s My hubby was stationed at Cherry Point Marine Corp Air Station, NC. as an air traffic controller soooo loved that “roar of freedom” as a Harrier passed over our house. GOD bless you all.
Ran into a drill sergeant of mine at Bragg. He'd become a A-10 pilot. Lucky bastard. My vision wasn't good enough to fly anything as a warrant officer....
Shawn, As a former AC130 A/H guy, it's really great to see you branching out and getting an air to mud guy like Dale on! Go Air Force! BTW I'm originally from Coronado, Dad was a nuclear submariner for 26 years during the Cold War and I really enjoyed working with all the operators once I got into AFSOC.
I was in the Air National Guard in the 90s. There was a bomb range in El Central, Ca. I would hear and see A-10s running their guns all the time. Brrrrp!

I think it awesome that you having pilots on know.
Cant wait man. Thank you Sean
Finally, the USAF getting some love.
Love all of your stuff Shawn! This one i can't wait to hear, iam a construction contractor and one of the remodels we are doing the customer was a "Hog" pilot during the Gulf wars. He had a barrel from the Avenger mounted on a plaque with a commemorative scribed plaque with his call sign given to him. He asked at the very beginning of the project (not knowing yet he was a pilot) if I could hang a barrel in his mancave. I thought "sure" (thinking it's a rifle barrel or some antique) and then he showed it to me and my jaw dropped.
If he doesn't go "Brrrrr" once imma be pissed
I had goosebumps watching this
Love the A-10. See them all the time in northern Michigan!
Battle Creek Cereal Killers!
Thank you for your Service.
This is exactly what I’m liking for!! Freaking awesome!!!
These previews man, they make my entire day
They make our day as well. 😂
I want to thank the Lord Jesus Christ for hearing and answering my prayers, thank You, Lord! May the Holy Spirit continue to guide us in sharing Your unconditional love. On another note, trusting the process really does bring great rewards. Working with Melissa Jonas Richard has positively impacted my financial journey, and her advice has helped me grow. If you’re considering a change, don’t hesitate and stay disciplined it could be just the opportunity you’ve been looking for!
Oh my goodness, I’m so happy to hear that! Melissa is amazing. I was skeptical at first, but her approach to crypto and stock investments is next level. I started small, but now my portfolio is way better than I ever imagined. She’s really professional and has been verified by major agencies like the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Honestly, I wouldn’t have believed it if I hadn’t experienced it myself.
Same here! I heard about her from a colleague at work, and I’m from the UK, by the way. Melissa is incredibly skilled, and what I love is that she’s honest and transparent. It’s not some quick schemes you see everywhere, she really educates you along the way. I’m seeing consistent returns every month. I’m so grateful!
I started working with her six months ago, and now I’ve seen a 60% return on my investments. The FINRA has also confirmed her credentials.
G’day from Sydney! I can’t thank Melissa enough, she has such a good grasp of the markets and knows exactly when to move. I was drowning in debt, but now I’m living comfortably and my portfolio’s been doing really well over the past year thanks to her advice. She’s got a proven strategy, and it’s backed by multiple agencies like Forbes , the International Blockchain Association, Wall Street Financial Insights and even ASIC has also endorsed her expertise. The woman is verified!
Wow, what a coincidence, I’ve been hearing about her from different people. Who exactly is this Melissa Jonas Richard?
Crewed the A 10 at Myrtle Beach AFB. I previously was stationed at George AFB working with the Wild Weasels. My sister was dying from a long bout with cancer and wanted to get closer to home. I applied for a BOP as I was stationed in the dessert long enough to be eligible. The A 10; after working 105’s and F 4’s, and OV 10’s, was a dream come true, beautiful machine as a maintenance troop. Loved it, and we could turn that machine to be back in the sky in very short order. A real dooms day piece of a Flying Fortress. Glad to see it’s continued to be part of the inventory.
Think about this for a second... THEY BUILT A PLANE AROUND A GUN PLATFORM! YEAH MERICA!
Thank you for your service.
During the late 80s early 90s My hubby was stationed at Cherry Point Marine Corp Air Station, NC. as an air traffic controller soooo loved that “roar of freedom” as a Harrier passed over our house. GOD bless you all.
There’s nothing like the sound of “Freedom Farts” in the morning!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Ran into a drill sergeant of mine at Bragg. He'd become a A-10 pilot. Lucky bastard. My vision wasn't good enough to fly anything as a warrant officer....
Saw and heard the A-10s training in AZ… Friggen chills when that gun was fired.
Finally! An Air Force pilot!
These trailers are top tier. The editing is bonkers.
Music makes it. Found the one they used. Daniel Burrows - You Can't Run. Ironic
Shawn, As a former AC130 A/H guy, it's really great to see you branching out and getting an air to mud guy like Dale on! Go Air Force! BTW I'm originally from Coronado, Dad was a nuclear submariner for 26 years during the Cold War and I really enjoyed working with all the operators once I got into AFSOC.
I was in the Air National Guard in the 90s. There was a bomb range in El Central, Ca. I would hear and see A-10s running their guns all the time. Brrrrp!
You should also interview some AFSPECWAR people like TACPs, CCTs, SRs, and Paras
Your interviews never disappoint. Man I’m looking forward to this one!!!
Can't wait. This show is right up there with the JRE. Keep em coming Shawn
