      The US just waited for years, hoping for Europe to be entirely conquered so they could "take it back" and make it their own. We aren't dupes , we ALL knows Russians are the reason Nazis were defeated , while americans would have been allied to the Nazis if the Japanese didn't went crazy.

    13:54 Yeah, I hear the PTSD thing. My dad was in Vietnam, even received the Bronze Star, and he thinks the only time he could have earned that was when his position was overrun in the night, where he and 2 other guys held their ground in a fox hole until morning when the enemy was finally pushed back enough they could escape. Said it came down to knife fighting, as they ran out of ammo at one point. Only thing he can't handle is gutting, be it fish, deer, or any other game. Everything else he handles just fine, like guns, fireworks, etc... oh, and he won't get in a helicopter unless he absolutely has to, 'cause he saw enough of them go down, and in his words, "They don't gyro slowly down and explode like the movies; they plummet like a rock and mangle the people inside."
    He just turned 79 in March, btw. Served in 1969-1970. Still spry, healthy, and full faculties. He wants nothing to do with veteran stuff, because he said he was a young man when he was over there, and he's accomplished so much in his life since, particularly raising 3 boys he's extremely proud of, that he doesn't form his identity around his one year of service in a war we had no part being involved. He also told me that instead of mindlessly thanking a veteran for their service with hollow words, the better way to thank a veteran is to live honorably, be truthful, and never vote for a Democrat or commie!

    Whenever I hear about Crocs I immediately think of Idiocracy and the story that came out about it. The costume designer had a limited budget, crocs was still an investment idea basically with a limited amount available. They were cheap as can be and no one thought these things would ever catch on. So the entire cast wore them for the movie and hated them. It took a little while but the gamble paid off for Crocs and they blew up in popularity not long after. Also cheers to Nick for always having a 20-30 minute spot for his amazing history rants. The man really is a history treasure to protect for always.

    Token “redcoat” here! You can own knives in Britain, except from autos and gravity knives. You can carry knives in public but non locking and under 3” (Brandon can relate). Can have a locking blade under 3” with a purpose (hunting, fishing, work etc). Also, don’t need to license chef knives, just need to prove you need them for work and are commuting.

      ​​@@linkholder Yeah, it wouldn't have worked like that. Not a single piece of "intel" would've been true. Also, how much can a Western woman who has spent basically none of her life in the region relate to a Middle Eastern woman? Completely different culture and society. And we did PLENTY for morale. When we kicked the Taliban out, the Internet was flat out banned. When we left, half the country had access to high speed Internet. We built them roads, hospitals, schools. We gave them everything they could've wanted and they still couldn't muster up the energy to resist the Taliban when we were pulling out.
      Yeah, that program didn't do a damn thing. They didn't want our way of living and we shouldn't have spent tens of billions trying to give it to them.

    Wish I could attach a pic of my 2008 toyota hilux. Love that ute.
    My dad is a Vietnam vet, and fireworks set both him and some of his mates off terribly.
    My grandfather was a WWII vet who had to sell the farm after he came home because the neighbour using his tractor in the distance sent him into a panic thinking tanks were coming.
    I think every conflict is so different, it's hard to relate to different triggers gor ptsd.

    Amazing shows fellas. Fan from Ireland but the fat electrician at 23:03 I'm a registered firearms owner over here in Ireland, Belfast. I have 2 shotguns and 3 rifles, just had to apply for a licence through the police and buy a gun safe for our home. Then a firearms officer comes to visit my home and approved my home to be safe. If you have no criminal record you're basically allowed to purchase any firearm. Also we had the IRA in our country to literally wage war against England and take the fight to them until a peace settlement was reached in 1998 to disarm the IRA so this might be why people assume Ireland is unarmed. Keep up the great work lads.

      I think it definitely goes both ways in that people from the UK think you can just walk into a walmart and buy a gun instantly, then people from the US think that the UK has a knife licence. Obviously we know that in the UK and ireland we can own firearms its just a few more hoops to jump through which in my opinion are sensible hoops (to an extent) but you definitely dont need a licence for a chefs knife

    Ive got a buddy that was a combat engineer and had multiple deployments including a Stop/Loss extension on his last deployment. He showed me videos him and his buddies made of them blowing up a palm grove that was a cache of weapons and ammo. They used like a ton of Napalm and several hundred yards of detcord. The explosion was one of the most epic explosions i ever saw.

    The original melody for in the mood dates back to 1930 or earlier. Glenn Miller’s classic recording of it was made in 1939, which means it would have entered the public domain in 1996. Mist opportunity. listen to well thinking about those stats it's a delight.
