Why would she not promote her book on the largest podcast in the world?

[@BongHuffingCaravan]

Gotta make money somehow why not promote her work on the world's largest podcast

[@ChoppzAndGlockzTV]

She’s on the world’s largest podcast. Why wouldn’t she promote her book on the world’s largest podcast?

[@ev3nstar]

Bro it’s literally the largest podcast in the world I would plug myself too during the word’s largest podcast

[@doublex4193]

It’s the biggest podcast in the world. Why on earth would she not take the opportunity to promote her book?

[@stanislavfrul6339]

Don't worry so much, the old KGB guys in Moscow are as afraid of a nuclear war as you are ;)

Agreed

That’s another one of Joe’s handlers using his show (with or without his knowledge) to spew CIA propaganda.

You know, hearing about Holloway talk about his KO over Justin or Cerrone getting lost cave diving is crazy BUT THIS STUFF RIGHT HERE man gives you goosebumps

A nuclear war would look like a bright flash in the sky and a goodbye.

[@curtiszyr]

It would be like an alien invasion .

Joe, great video. Please ask Annie to explain the Current Pole Shift of Earth. Thank you

[@Bill_Woo]

I sleep well at night knowing that I am safe from annihilation, because Internet commenters are fully focused on the phrase "in my book". Some people really need to get laid.

[@deltongoi7484]

She wrote a book I was told

[@Bill_Woo]

Those with over a 101 IQ recognize that saying that phrase is shorthand for "The answer is very detailed, and nuance, so if you want a full answer with context, and explanation of nuance, it is covered in my book, but I'll give you a chopped conversational answer now rather than spend 10 minutes on the full explanation."

[@bschmidt1]

@@Bill_Woo Those with over a 121 IQ understand that but still laughed at the joke

[@MrMavJet]

You really don’t realize how serious that would be clearly. It’s no joke. Nuclear war would be the end of life

[@FuhqEwe]

@@Bill_WooHow many copies of her book did you purchase?

[@mikeybuilds8596]

There are many different types of interceptors. She refers to the decades old systems that aren't relied upon. Thaad, ageis and patriot missle systems cand defeat ballistic missles.

[@Max-lf3tx]

The "science" behind her claims is also laughable.

[@dangolguitartech]

I am visually impaired and have no idea what she looks like, but I know I could certainly listen to her voice on anything requiring a voiceover.

[@blitskreegdeantioch5851]

There are some Standard Missile variants used by the Navy that can do ballistic interceptions.

Annie's voice is fantastic. The most relaxing voice ever... I know what she is speaking about very serious subject matters. But her voice is just relaxing. You know if she yells I bet anyone would snap to alert, because you know it would be extremely serious.

[@FleepacShakur]

Glad to see I’m not the only one who her voice does something too. I could and have slept good to hearing this women speak about some dark stuff 😂

[@labibabi1]

It’s in my book lady.

[@thenoobassassin]

By all means, be cringe and larp like all the other npc commenters saying the same thing. You bums have more comments talking about her talking about her book than she mentions her book.

[@StephenMulder]

Perfect audio for the ending of this video 😳

[@jasongrimshaw-smith8369]

I started this video and immediately went to the kitchen started cooking some new potatoes whilst listening on my wireless headset. Even with Joe's voice coming up every now and again, i was getting a semi from her voice.

[@cliffwright376]

Bro my top 5 joe interviews to watch her 1st one is in it lol
