Don is truly incredible not just of how accomplished he became but hearing him respectfully discuss the complex situation in Afghanistan and never talking bad about the casual civilians was so refreshing
I think you'd find that most dudes that were in Afghanistan in the past 20 years think we should have done more to help the people that helped us. US Soldiers and all the others invested lots of emotion and sacrificed a lot for those people.
@@SammyHangDD Good job, your efforts weren't in vain. The good men and women that died, didn't die for nothing. A whole generation grew up under your protection, relatively free from Islamist extremism. Those women wish you were still there.
@@kongphengyang8052 1 sailor and 1 soldier to be exact, but its all the same to Joe biden. He kept checking his watch during their coming home ceremony.
IDK how many times I watched episodes with Don Tran. I hope you always bring him back. He down plays himself but I am still blown away by his experiences.
Hearing how Don explained how this is even worst than the Vietnam War broke my heart more about this situation. My parents and their families also had to escape that war to survive leaving other family members and seeing others being killed. It's terrible. It makes you think, if they didn't make it, I wouldn't be here today. As things have changed over the years with more stigma, I do hope we can help these people in need fleeing as well as our fellow soldiers.
Don is so down to earth and humble. He also has so many unique stories to tell because of his military career. Love seeing him on the show and would love to see him on JKNews more often!
@@Buttsceatcgee Yeah, but it wasn't landing the way they expected it. Some jokes were just meh. And Don was quite respectful answering the silly questions
The military gentleman was very interesting to listen to but the usual panel with the jokes didn't seem to fit well here. I thought Bart would have a little more connection with him because of his military background.
Bart wasn't infantry and doesn't know what it's like to be in the shit. Don is a Raider. Did another of DA stuff. Two different world of experiences in the Corp
Its def odd at a glance cus its a dude whos been in the shit and every1 isntrying to lighten the mood. The moods are serious and lighthearted so these two are clashing in the video. Especially with our marines and corpsman dying in afghan its a bit hard to try and make it not super seriousm
You should see the war veterans at my unit with how they joke about the situation. Veterans aren't easily offended by jokes. Hell they're making half of them.
Nah... Marines/Vets have the darkest humor. If you try to be too familiar, take too many liberties, then they might call you out (esp if there's two ir more around). But otherwise, speak your mind around them/us.
MARINE CORPS INFANTRY here, combat vet, Iraq. General Smedley Butler, 2x Medal of Honor recipient, wrote a book in his retirement. ..title says it all **WAR IS A RACKET**
Another reason why the Taliban took over so easily is because the policeman (and soldiers I believe) were given orders not to fight. You’ll find videos of police officers pleading that they want to fight the Taliban but their supervisors (or whatever you call them) saying they can’t and taking their guns away. So even before the fight began, the Taliban already had an upper hand in beating the Afghan army. And just as most of yous would know by now, our president, Ashraf Ghani is so useless he just ran away. But don’t worry, there’s already a resistance group that’s formed by the son of the previous resistance leader (whom sadly passed away). Inshallah (god willing) they succeed in whiping the Taliban off of Afghanistan.
Guys, just my .02 cents. There are some topics that just aren't funny. US soldiers and civilians being killed in Afganistan, is a very serious and sad set of events. I just feel that this type of topic needs a serious format. Say you had Don on talking about his experience in general in the military, I'm sure he has some interesting and funny stories. But nothing funny about american soldiers getting killed.
Don't ((think)) anyone was laughing at the troops that were killed. They're just easing the mood with comedic timing. And either way, veterans and service members earned their right to cope with these situations how they want. Wether that be by memes, laughter, sadness, or even anger. Edit: I had left the word 'think' out above.
I think they asked some good questions I’d want to ask and they also joked around a little to lighten the mood cuz they’re comedians so I think it was a good vid
@@HasanPikerIsADouche He doesn't have to be knowledgeable, he probably still has family living there 🤷♀️. So it would be nice to hear from someone who is from Afghanistan, no matter how long he's lived in USA. But I'm sure he still has family down there and has heard about the situation from family still there.
no nick should've been replaced since he wasn't talking, just cause you're a steve hater doesn't change how he was interested in the topic and participating
I mean if u feel offended by what anybody said you obviously support a weak president. Bc Steve might or joe or Bart or anybody might not say the most liked thing but when it comes down to it it’s unfortunately true
God works things out for our good, in His divine timing, as He did with Tiff. She said herself that she had not been feeling the same about being on the show for awhile, yet stayed anyways out of a sense of responsibility to the show and the crew. Yet now she has been freed from the responsibility of hosting the show, trying to keep the group on schedule on shoot days, and in a structured format. Cuz let's face it, the somewhat unstructured way of the show currently would probably have driven her nuts. Also, in light of the miscarriage that she and Casey had suffered before, she is now free to focus on her and their unborn child's health, instead of having to work the long/late hours of shoot days, as well as the long commute to the studio. She will be able to rest when needed, get their home ready for the new addition to their family, enjoy basking in her pregnancy, and preparing for the child's arrival. Things are working out for the best where Tiff and Case are concerned. Tiff has said she wants to move on from what happened. Tiff and Case are happy and as they said, enjoying their next adventure in their lives.
Would be cool to see Nick and Don do a video on his military combat training and Nicks “traditional” gym training how they differ and relate to one another
Enjoy watching Steve, but this topic and his jokes didnt feel right especially since it cost peoples lives. Felt like he was a little insenstive toward the current situation. I belive this rhe 2nd time with this special guest...thank you for your service Bro!!
help people lol. no one asked... now we watch usa having crime rates so bad. what if china comes over there and help you guys out to solve the crimes and racism
They don't need to change the intro, it's the shows intro, whether Tiff were here or not. The intro was the same no matter who's been hosting the show throughout the years. Whether it be Tiff, Nikki, Boze, Steve, Casey, any of them, the intro has always been the same, it is not exclusive to Tiff.
I’m so early!! 🇬🇧 - is it just me or was it a bit awkward today I mean I get it but didn’t feel like JKNews like with jokes and them acknowledging what’s going on🤷🏽♀️
What do you expect? Do you expect them to not make a single joke in this episode? They were not making dark jokes about what was going on, all of their jokes were light hearted and did not seem inappropriate to me. This is how a lot of people cope(especially comedians), and they were acknowledging what was going on... Maybe I am misinterpreting your comment because your grammar was a little confusing.
@@c_pistons9989 yes grammar was confusing my bad😂 I was saying they make jokes about dark thinks always and normally everyone goes along with it, it’s funny and you get the point they’re putting across which I love but today it felt a bit off
