Yeah truly great interviews start with your favorite breakfast question and worst hangover question.

This was an incredible interview! I have to be honest, the part that caught me was the beginning when you asked Laura about the 3 things she loved most about living in the US. I think every person should listen to her describe freedom, I am an American and I love freedom as much as she does as a South African. I Thank her so much for her love for this country. I laughed hearing the tacos and blue jeans & Johnny Cash wrapped up in there, because that is America, and we are so lucky to live here. I admit this was the first time I have listened to your podcast, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. the time went so fast. You have a new fan. Thank you for your service! I am from a military family, and volunteer with disabled vets, happy to have found your show! Thank you Ms. Logan for your wonderful work, and for such honesty, you passion for truth and your love for not only America but for this world as well. Thank you Mr. Ritland, its your voice our world needs more of.

My thoughts as well. An actual Journalist

Thanks, Mike one of the best interviews I've ever witnessed. The perspective of Lara on the state of media was very enlightening. the strength of Lara as a human being is very humbling indeed.

Holy hell this podcast was something else. Lara is an such an incredible person... I have no words. I also really appreciate how Mike always asks relevant questions and doesnt make it about himself, unlike so many other podcast hosts.

Someone needs to make a movie of this brave and driven woman’s life. She has literally been to hell and back, yet you would never know it talking to her because is to busy living a full life to marinate on the tragic wrongs done to her. This is a strong woman. I would love for her to have her own interview type show.

This was a great interview. The strength of this woman is amazing and her story is mind changing and life altering. Lara is an inspiration on many levels.

>> I NEVER listen to interviews that are 3hrs 39min long, YET I couldn't put this one down!!! Earlier in the video Lara kept me captivated with all of her stories & the fact that she kept sharing insights about what was happening in those situations that we never hear in the news. Once she set her mind to doing something she never let details get in the way. I also realized that only someone like Mike with his Navy Seal experience would be able to really understand & allow Lara to share so much. Although her experience in Egypt was hard to share, I applaud her for being willing to express what happened and how she has dealt with it, including how it has affected her husband. There were many times during that discussion that tears were rolling down my face with great emotions. There are many reasons that Lara was allowed to survive and I don't think any of us can fully appreciate the scope yet. I'm glad that she has not turned angry & bitter & revengeful for the rest of her life. I certainly would like to see her publish books about various experiences she has had. What would be most meaningful for me would be for her to share in shorter books devoted to a narrow topic and what she learned that could be of value to others. For example, she mentioned several times about how our country has often been a "friend" of others for awhile & then abandoned them, so others are often distrustful. Can Lara share examples at a personal level of working with others that would help us understand the implications as well as possible solutions going forward? This is the most educational 3+ hr video I've ever listed to in my life and I sincerely thank both Lara & Mike for sharing!!! All the best in both of your lives going forward!!!

I am a native Texan who still lives in the state. I listened to the podcast yesterday, and will listen again. It was so damn refreshing to hear her say what many people have been saying for a very long time. I am thankful there IS social media, so people can do their own research instead of taking what the MSM says is gospel. That is what I want people to do-don't take what the MSM, celebrities, or anyone else as the absolute truth. Investigate things for yourself. I HATE the fact that social media like google, youtube, instagram and twitter are CENSORING those they disagree with. That bites. IF celebrities come out, and attack the President, and those who might support him, or his ideas, I stop supporting them by not going to movies, watching their tv shows, buying their music, or stop following them on social media platforms. Some don't give a shit about those who put them in the position they are in (fans), which is fine, but don't be shocked and awed when their support dries up. Thank you for this podcast, and thank her for doing it.

This is awesome Mike.

Lara looks so much healthier now, than this time last year. I think she had some medical issues (perhaps leftover from her ordeal in Egypt?) that made her look unwell, and a bit older than forty seven.

Powerful. I was awed by Lara's ability to process the bigger cultural picture behind her experience of being sexually assaulted, and by her bravery in sharing the physical and emotional details. Thank you Lara for sharing your many experiences. Thank you Mike for bringing this guest to your podcast. And for those who thought there was no dog training - you're right. But there was some very funny dog non-training that provided comic relief in a serious moment.

That interview was one of the most amazing interviews I have ever witnessed Lora is a absolute credit to her profession .👌👍👋

I always knew Lara to be a true journalist and a fine one at that. I admire her bravery in telling her truth.

Outstanding work! I've always been a fan of Lara's but had no idea she was such a badass. She's already had lifetimes of experiences. Well done, Mike.

WOW what a great episode!!! I’ve always really liked Lara but I admire her so much more. She’s one of, if not the best journalist of my life. I miss seeing her stories-they were intriguing, accurate, and involved first hand reporting that you couldn’t really find elsewhere. The fact that the MSM tried to screw her and she stood up to them, shows you the type of person she is. She doesn’t care about all the BS and just want to do the best at what she loves, and that’s journalism. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wow! This will take some time to all sink in. I'm so very glad Lara got through this and that she was brave enough to share her story.

This has to be the best interview I have ever watched. I've always been a fan of Lara Logan but now she is off the charts. Love her honesty!

When I first started this video, I didn't think I'd be watching the entire thing. I quickly found out just how she was so persuasive in her early career, because I found myself hanging onto her every word. I'm now done, and took a few minutes to think about things. I realized, I've never respected a female more, in my entire life, than I do this lady, right now. Amazing interview, thank you.

"Ugly flowers" made me laugh!!! I've seen Lara on Fox, after listening to this I have a huge new mad respect for her, she is a true badass!!!

wow. Lara Logan. Courage, integrity, tenacity, intelligence, humility, boldness... I can't find all the words. People like her need to have more influence in the world. There is too much of pettiness, narcism, dishonesty and the consequent suffering caused by giving too loud a voice to the wrong people. I watched this interview in installments over three days, not because I couldn't find the time to do it all in one sitting during the lockdown but because I needed time to digests and assimilate different messages and insights. Thanks for the chance to be a fly on the wall. From now on I will perk right the hell up when I hear the name, Lara Logan.

Ms. Logan, thank you so much for this profoundly important interview. I came to hear your revelations about journalistic bias--a very rare admission--but I was devastated to learn the intensely painful details of the attack you suffered in Egypt. My eyes filled with tears as you shared, with so much bravery, the horrific events that took place. You are a courageous and intelligent woman and I have no doubt that your voice has the power to impact many of the imbalances you referenced. Having paid such an unthinkable price to practice journalism, you are uniquely positioned to be heard by your peers. I am moved and inspired by your story. Thank you so much for sharing!

WTF. I've never seen anything like this. If all the journalists in America were like this our country would a different (better) place. Honesty, vulnerability, truth... two people with an evident drive for what is real. "The truth will set you free"... FYI, that's from what used to be a really popular book. Wisdom from fifty thousand years of human experience, kicked to the curb by today's no-it-all morons. Here are a couple honest people who are the manifestation of the power and reality of that statement. I compare this to the jokers that populate American media today and its embarrassing. If I were a journalist working in mainstream media today and saw this, I would be ashamed. I expect every hack POC media personality to attack the shit out of both Lara and Mike for this - because this is probably the most powerful, honest piece of video journalism I've ever seen. Mike, you got some balls bro. You asked real questions with total honesty, humility and fearlessness - how do ask this gorgeous women to tell you about being raped? Fuck bro - I cried thru that whole thing. And Lara... I literally don't have words. In a world that is descending into a 24/7 cycle of total bullshit, here is the counter point. Simple, raw honesty. A life spent diving into the craziest places in the world. I cannot express the respect I have for you. A journalist who tells the truth as she sees it and a women who is willing to share something impossibly painful and vulnerable. Thank you. I would never want my daughter to go through what you have experienced, but I can't imagine a better role model. All the best for you and your family.

What's so messed up is lefties always say people like me don't like strong women and that I'm sexist/mysoginist for not liking and disagreeing with feminists and Hillary Clinton, Cortez etc. But the women they prop ups as strong are usually always man hating, feminist, America hating, smug, preaching intersectional non sense and labeling all straight white men as evil. They also prop up people based on supposed victim status for being made fun of for being shit. They never promote people like Lara, Dana loesch or women soldiers, teachers, emts, doctors, etc who show by doing, being brave and don't shove their gender or sexuality down our throats. These women like Logan protrude beauty, brains, real courage and determination. Not grievance mongering, division, hate on white straight men, and dependance like far lefties seem to admire.

if anything ever needed to viral it should be this interview. thanks mike and Lara.

Well, I listened to the interview from start to finish. This woman has lived the experiences of 100 life times. Incredible story. This was easily one of the most powerful interviews that I have to which I have ever listened. She radiates a bravery only seen in the likes of elite soldiers and leaders. The story of her bravery is remarkable, but in this world it is almost equally remarkable that, she is actually a real journalist is meant to be. She observes and reports facts. So many of those on television, cable, online, etc.who claim to be journalist could learn a lot from her. Listening to her only reinforces that sad fact that most modern day news outlets are devoid of real journalists. Kudos Mike! Incredible interview. This is your Mona Lisa.

Brilliant interview! TWO real professionals.

The most compelling interview I've ever seen/heard. Mike. EVERY ONE, men & women IMO must watch this. I started to write reasons why, I couldn't - EVERY ONE, men & women IMO must watch. Young and older. There is no way a person will not be profoundly moved and educated. And share it with as many people as possible.

I watched the whole interview. Simple "After listening to her, I get back my hope in human kind" What a beautiful human been she is. Thank you Lara.

She is a rare gem in journalism, with a bright luster and vivacious appetite for life.

Mike, what an incredible interview. You are exceptional at being alert and listening, not trying to butt in and force the interview, and it really made this interview top notch. That was the fastest 3 and a half hours of my life. Well done brother

I gave up on mainstream media long ago.....decades ago. So before that horrible attack on Lara in Egypt, honestly I had never heard of her. And the reporting of the attack was an injustice in and of itself. As i recall it the networks ....none of them would even use the word rape. They said she was attacked and beaten, as if it were just another case western reporters being roughed up by rowdy protesters. After all the whole Arab Spring narrative couldn't be sullied. Lara's composure and resolute strength, her attitude, her recovery are simply amazing. When she described letting go of the dignity and focusing all of energy on surviving to the next moment it reminded me a lot of reading Marcus Luttrel's account of trying to crawl to the next rock or tree before resting. Listening to Lara tell her story....with utter composure was like being dragged through a host of visceral emotions. I've never seen anyone who has been more victimized that was less a victim than this woman. If the world had more people like this it'd be a much better place.

@@MikeRitland .Thank you for doing this interview with Lara. What an amazing woman she is. Her perspective on left MSM is spot on and most wouldn't have the courage to say what she said. You asked great questions. Even the thing with the dog was entertaining. Keep doing what you are doing.Thank you again.

Lara, Thank you for sharing your life as a journalist and the power of believing in one's own self. I am so happy to hear that there is someone out there that loves what they do, putting your best foot forward in finding the truth and reporting it. I am sorry that you ever had to go through being demoralized by some really ugly people, ravage animals to say the least. I hope you do write a book about your life and all the adventures and mishaps during the course of your life time. Keep with faith as you continue your non-bias journalism, moving forward, stronger than ever before. But always stay safe. May God bless you and your family, always. Thank you, Mike for interviewing Lara, the interview was powerful and real.

Lara Logan may never read this but she is the reason I started watching 60 Minutes again. I found her stories to be interesting and fair while everyone else was/is looking for a slanted got you moment. What a breath of fresh air to hear her be completely honest about the media we already know is well slanted to the left and is seldom unbiased. Thank you Lara!

I should have also said that I love her reporting, she has been criticized for reporting the truth and not following the fake media narrative that we have now and I love her for that.

Unfortunately her own personal bias led her astray and now we sadly watch her decline into wingnut madness.

Lara is an amazing person. I'm a tremendous admirer. Great interview.

Great interview ~ this woman is inspiring which means she won’t be part of mainstream media for much longer because inspiration isn’t their goal . I hope she goes on to something where she can share her life experiences in a positive way like she just did here . Yes she is beautiful but more than that she is intelligent and as a woman I think it’s great she is genuine & doesn’t filter her language & try to be anything other than who she is . Wish there were more journalists like her .Frankly she’s been through hell during her career being embedded with troops over seas and didn’t give up ~ much respect to her for her integrity & strength. I like the fact that Mike let her talk & asked great questions .

From a female perspective, I appreciate Lara's extensive knowledge and deep understanding of the issues and cultures she's reported on. Her bravery, strength, and dedication to reporting the truth are to be commended!!!

Lara's passion for journalism is an inspiration. The interview and her candid response are an amazing way to spend three hours and hear both a great interviewer and interviewee. Nice job Mike. BTW, loved the 3hr mark and the dog. (I'm serious, liked the real life aspect of an onsite pod cast).

Shame she had such a revealing top on.

I just watched the whole interview with Lara. I had to break for dinner but got right back on here with my headset on so I wouldn't miss a word. All I can say is WOW!! I thought I cold listen and still catch up on Facebook or play a silly game while I listened. Never happened. I had to watch and listen to every word. I'm sure I'll have to watch a second time. Riveting. Our son was a Marine during the time Lara when was in the field. I wonder if their paths crossed. Thank you Mike and thank you Lara. Patriots!

I know this interview is over three years old now but I just stumbled across it and I must say how riveting it was. I had no idea who Lara even was before I found this and I had no intentions of spending 3+ hours of my day off watching this interview but I couldn't walk away. Lara is an amazing human being not only for her strength but I am in awe of her dedication to journalism at it's purest form. How ironic that I was directed to discovering this from a libtard hit piece that Yahoo News posted today about how a former mainstream news darling has strayed to become a far right mouthpiece. Thank you to Lara for remaining true to herself in a sea of shit and thank you Mike for your service to this once great country.

Cryed three times listening this podcast, loved her honesty, her straight forward mindset, such a noble caracter. I hope this was not a career suicide but instead a 1° huge step in the direction of pushing back against medias excessive bias and the culture of overreacting. Keep it up.

Thank you for this interview -- what an incredible story and important perspective Lara has! I'm glad she's speaking out about the media bias in particular. It's SO CRUCIAL that people start paying attention to this issue.

Just a few of the standout quotes for me from some of the best (3) hours of conversation I've ever heard: "No one owes you a living..." "Those 3 1/2 months in Afghanistan were very hard, but they were also some of the best time I've ever had on earth..." (How absolutely true is that?! We go through the grinder, we forge ourselves, we bond, we struggle, we survive...and we treasure the journey / experience because it has meaning.) "I gave my respect and my time..." "Why would I give them the *rest* of my life?" Thanx, Mike. Thanx, Lara...and all the best. Oh, and God bless Texas.

Lara Logan must be the strongest person on the planet. She has my undying admiration. What amazing courage, honesty and integrity--qualities sorely lacking in mainstream media today. I started following Lara a few years ago when I watched her interviewed. I loved it that she refused to be politically pidgeon-holed and simply stated that her objective is the TRUTH. Why is truth in the media so hard to find?

This is the most powerful interview I've ever watched.

I love the dog walks right into the interview and you keep rolling. THAT IS KEEPING IT REAL!!

My first time viewing one of your podcasts, and will definitely have to tune in to more. Great interview! Lara, keep true to yourself and maintain your integrity and honesty. As you said, people may not always like or agree with you, but if they know you are honest, they will respect you more. I can’t imagine what you went through in Egypt.....and to be able to not be angry and want revenge says much about you. You are a courageous (albeit crazy) woman and I thank you for all you have done. Mike, thank you for all your service to our country-past and present! God bless you both🙏

WOW, so refreshing to listen to a real true and honest journalist. I've not really paid attention to her over the years. Was watching some Q stuff, caught that quick part, decided to look her up, which brought me to this interview. I'm very impressed with this awesome lady. I've not listened to a journalist in my lifetime this down to earth with so much common sense. She's beautiful inside and out. Love her stories, such a great story teller, had my attention the whole time as if I were right there beside her in all her travels, different countries, wars ect...So sorry she went through that awful attack, I pray she's able to overcome it as time goes by, I know it's been a while. Something like that certainly takes a while to feel even close to normal again. I can tell she's a very strong person and probably the rock of her family and friends. She definitely restores my faith in journalism. I had given up after listening to the ones in mainstream media last few years. Guess this interest me so much cause as a young girl I looked up to journalist, was a prestigious career. I wanted to be one or a writer. Always had a pen and paper handy and over the years I've written numerous short stories and songs, keeping them in composition notebooks filled away in my dresser. Five or 6 years ago I was doing research online and what I found about our government was shocking. The more I researched the worse it got. One day i realized i was fully awake and aware of the deep state, shadow government, mainstream media ect... It made me angry but mostly broke my heart for our great country and it's people. The journalist I had so much respect for I watched slowly become puppets and sounding board's for whoever paid the most and brainwashed the best. I've since spent my time REDPILLING as many that wish to listen. Lara Logan has boosted my confidence today and I needed that. This battle we fight for our country and each other takes a lot of time and energy if we are truly serious. Bless you lady, keep up the good fight, dont get discouraged, you know its mostly spiritual by now. Will keep following you and prayers for you and family.

I'm so glad that y'all videoed this blog. It was an outstanding interview. I would have been lost in her story...

Thank you both for this interview! This lady has single handedly convinced me that “Good” reporters are still out there. A true non biased reporter that understands they should be neutral and tell the facts and let us the individual form opinions based on that truth. We need to find her news company and use our power as the people to make her ethics on reporting the standard again! I will support her and those like her however I can in the future!

She has convinced me that reporters are human and fundamentally flawed.

Wow! What an amazing podcast! I’m blown away- figuratively of course. The quality of interviews you continue to have is amazing, Mike. I’ll be digesting this one for months to come. My wife is equally blown away. Thank you & God bless

What an amazing person. I was glued to this interview from start to finish. Thanks for sharing so many stories and thoughts. I'm a huge fan of how you view stuff.

Amazing interview, Great great stories,i enjoyed them all! I wanna part 2!! but Thanks so much Lara for just being honest! God Bless you!!

Remarkable stories. Most of us never listen intently to a 1/2 hour discussion, much less 3 1/2 hours of conversation. Mike has done an excellent job facilitating this, to show Lara Logan’s truly unique spirit. She’s got 9 lives and they are all very interesting. So thankful she has “lived to tell about it.”
