  1. Excellent, important & interesting interview. All that I can say is thank you for your work Brandon, and thanks to Lindy for making this interview.
    (I noticed that the Kremlin bots & Putin / Russia apologists got active once again, just took them a bit longer than usual)

  2. Some of the most prestigious medals of valor have more often been awarded for saving lives – that's what heroism is about, and Brandon has shown us the gritty reality of heroism. Thank you, Brandon and Lindy, for this top-notch interview.

  3. Rare to here a man be genuine of the experience of war; in the sense that people be they civilian or military do the strangest decision in stressful situation's.

    The priorities some people have of the most feckless matters rather then their own life or family members lives.
    No possession's are worth your life & if anything is of personal sentimental value just cover it up & bury it if you can't carry it.
    You can return & rebuild if your breathing but not if your dead!

    Too endanger another life that would risk their own life for yours while you weren't in danger or changed your mind is the height of rudeness & cowardice.
    Still I wouldn't keep risking life & limb as it really isn't appreciated as much as it should be!
    You seen it in my mind & done your part which some have to learn the hard way.
    Anyone that makes claim against your character Canuck, likely can't compare.
    Take those insults as compliment for your actions make them self-conscious!

    Know you were lucky enough to make it out of your gamble alive so I'd recommend you don't stick your neck out again.
    People will egg you on into the daft affairs & ventures simply not worth it.
    Some hills must be fought & others circumvented or avoided.
    I recommend you make your fearless friend see sense to pick his battles!

    I have no intention of going to Ukraine even if not for my failed health it is not my battle though I have no sides I can't help but root for the underdog Ukraine as who doesn't like a rendition of David and Goliath?
    Mind both sides are not what they claim!

  4. This Canadian criminal mercenary doesn't even know what he's fighting for. But the terrorist will realize that he fought on the side of evil, on the side of the NAZIS. Andy Bagshaw the Nazi terrorist was denazified it seems

  5. That was my immediate thought, wierdly running over the anti personnel mine, as brutal as that is, prevented him from running over the far more powerful anti tank mine!
    Your life was saved by an anti-personnel mine. How crazy is that!

  6. I have to admit, Brandon isn't sugar coating it. But that's how it should be. And no one should judge him for being afraid or jot doing any more evacs. He has done hundreds more than any of us sitting in the safety of our homes.

  7. Thanks for these vids, to both of you
    They give an insight into what's going on over there, that you don't really get anywhere else

    Skål, år og fred 🙂
    (Cheers, good years and peace)

  8. Lloyd, thank you for sharing with us. I have been following Brandon since summer 2022. Now, the latest episode of your (at least) 5 hour long concersation, and the first for me to watch (now eager to watch the earlier ones), this was both informative with much new insight for me, and very inspirational. There are as many good reason to support Ukraine as there are decent, civilised people in the world, and we all should and can do much more. Greetings from Denmark. 🔱🌻 Slava Ukraini! Heroyam Slava! Stay safe! 💙💛

  9. Hahaha. He wants permission to think of himself as a hero.
    Mate. If you are not, no one is.
    You are a THOUSAND times braver than any soldier-man who has ever existed.

    ( The families insisting on dragging endless junk with them . . . I mean, the DOGS, OK, I understand the dogs, but plastic bags with "stuff" ?. When it is risking the life of people who have crossed to world to come to your aid, by delaying them in a war zone? , and to not have it ready and in bags on everyone's back, divided up to take up the least possible room? ).

  10. Most westerners that go to Ukraine seem to go once maybe twice so the people that keep going time after time are just amazing to me. Great work, great people.

  11. Is it just me or does Lloyd barely ask questions or interject? I listen to this audio only, so can't tell by how many cuts of he cuts out the questions, but to me it feels like he's just letting the guest say whatever they want to say and cut in only when needed.
