OMG ! The interviewer talked more than Rigby !
Couldn't wait for her to have the floor. Very frustrating to have him interrupt and not being able to tell her story.
yeah I found that very annoying. He was not a very good interviewer, he seemed to want to tell the story himself. I wanted to hear her story not his version of her story.
@@robbienorton9522 Almost as if he knew better
You're being very unfair to him, when she doesn't have the right kind of penis to speak competently to an audience. She doesn't even have the thinking (left) testicle, let alone the right logic ball. How can she be expected to do things like coherently represent herself without the necessary penis!?
To be fairer, benefit of doubt, etc, maybe they spoke first, and she actually just isn't cut out for giving interviews, or presentations, or said she'd prefer this style. That IS possible I guess.
But I'm pining hard for when she's given room to tell her story herself, too. He's literally just said, "the story is just fantastic..." and I'm praying he's doing a really short feed in ONLY for her. Omg now he's taken over, "so the first thing he told you is..." Stfu man, let her talk...
She's such a great speaker, too, colourful, funny, just good to hear narrate, interesting n clear, just good at getting across a good telling of a good story for us the listener.
And like I really don't get the sense she needs prompting, reminding or telling to her, her own memoirs.
She's being so polite, too! I wish she'd not be having to keep politely letting him finish, again.
Just to be clear I'm only insinuating a sexist attitude for comedy, for all I actually know he might talk to everyone this way. Maybe he'll mature as an interviewing and find the balance to strike between his enthusiasm for the subject, and letting the subject enthuse for themselves.
The interviewer wants to show off his knowledge more than asking his esteemed guest for her actual experience and knowledge.
Should. Keep his. Trap. Shut
The concurrent theme during this talk was the interviewer loving his own voice! I could not watch it all
Sorry, can not finish this. I had hoped to hear her story.
OMG let her talk
You mean the interviewer won't shut up? I agree. He makes a lot of chit chat.
Its a good story but wish the moderator would let her talk. He dominated the entire lecture.
Eric Sarnoski I think she makes him feel insecure.
Yes I wish he would just shut up and let her tell her own story !
I can confirm this comment is correct. Thank you
He’ s narrating HER book!
One sentence into the presentation I already sensed that guy likes to hear himself talk a lot
This guy needs to shut up and ask the question. We want to hear HER.
Fantastic exposé and interview. Much respect to CIA, DIA and all of USIC. Thank you every day for your service. From Poland.
What an interesting, good natured woman.
She's an extremely great speaker!
I agree with everyones opinion about the moderatoe.
Interesting talk, what a lifetime and life changing experience. Hope your experiences will bring new looks and improvements to get to the final line, improve the world and get peace ✌
That interviewer won't shut up. Can't even watch the rest of this.
Yup, I'm having to fast forward.
interviewer talks too much
No he doesn't, and there different kinds of interviews; this is conversational.
why does the interviewer speak more than the person being interviewed?
Is this guy going to let her speak or is he going to tell the story for her??
As hard and as stressful of a job that she did for 10 years it didn't age her at all,
she's gorgeous! I think it would be very beneficial for her to travel around the country
and speak to young high school girls because its woman like her that can show girls that they can play with the boys too!!!
We got to wrap it up ..
You go Woman 😊
He talks so much. The readers are NOT interested on him.
MISCHELLE IS A HEROIN. I HIGHLY RESPECT HER.
CIA COULD AND SHOULD provide a resume alibi. Just make a BS department that employers could call to check (if they ever actually do that) or hire me. I’ll take in that “department” lol but SERIOUSLY you’d think they. Would have worked that out by now
Completely AGREE..
The man takes all the space . Awful
The Moderator show ft Supporting cast Michelle Assad
I can't imagine.. but I bet it's some scary shit..
All his dumb questions after another 🤦♂️
bad interviewer: if you want to learn about someone favorite colors you never ask ‘given your fav colors are red white and blue, what is your fav color ?”
Her experience of being female in the CIA mirrors the experience of any foreigner in Japan. Helloooo, I'm stting right here. Looks like these kinds of problems are a big issue still all over the world in different cultures.
I love this stuff but, she says she can't tell anyone but, she is on video telling everyone?
well, she just answered my question!
A wonderful interview
As a man, I can say that she is proof that women are better than men. ❤
Francis&Duwan
that dude talking to much
So why would you look for countries in the EU such as Slovakia to take the refugees, but the US wouldn’t?
she is beautiful..... and a bad ass!
ALLIES OF THE LEECHER
Is it wrong that I'm attracted to intelligent, educated, powerful women? They don't need to have power but it's like the cherry on top so to say.

You don't have to learn french to get by in Canada unless you're in Quebec. Every other Province is 100% English.
Refugees - yeah imagine the utter demonic horror of having to learn a foreign language...
This interviewer needs to learn how to stay quiet and let the guests talk
Aww! She's absolutely ravishing!
Damn! She's married... well, here's to the happy couple! 🥃
May you both have a good life.
I wish he’d stop showing off his obviously vast knowledge, and let her tell her story.
The videos from this content creator which are speeches are superlative. These lame interview videos by some random patronizing interviewer to some random person who worked "for the community" and who wrote a book, are not.
Specialist 😂
small potatos playing big roles
The reason it takes so long is because it's done by the government. If it was a private company its would have been done faster, cheaper and better.
"I'm so glad we had friends praying for us. That meant nothing bad would happen". Don't be so bloody ridiculous.
kdlofty what about those who prayed at the end of a barrel and we're then blown away
Nothing to do with "prayer" Purely down to the choice of whoever had the gun.
Challenging the 'power of prayer" eh?
It worked.
@@alswann2702 No it didn't.
great interaction programme and all you very great.🌏🌍🏝🏕🌋
