This man paints a story with words.

[@michaeljohnson6976]

Its so strange how one unknown man can have such a huge effect, negatively, on a country, and yet seems so likeable.

[@danielp1497]

this is the best channel on youtube. thanks shawn ryan, this is something special

[@scottthomas9043]

So very proud for Mr Ryan to have adopted Tenn as his family's home. True hero, and warrior of this country!

[@YahooMurray]

Me too, Ryan is a true hero, I was born in Memphis in 1949 and 11 years ago returned to SEA and retired on a beach im Thailand. Funny how things end up.

[@johndillinger8482]

how the hell is he a hero? do you know how many people died because of this piece of shit?

[@MrGibble64]

you are proud of a drug dealer . . shows what kind of person you are scottthomas . .

[@metalgeniusjoe5602]

Incredible interview. Fantastic show!

[@anowhouston]

my grandpa tells stories like this man, i could listen to him all day

[@AussieMatttt]

Those stories are nothing like this man. Difference between hunting stories and drug smuggling 😂😂😂 but I know what you mean.

[@GandalfGives]

Soon, grandpa's won't have stories, they can show selfies and social media profiles to the grandchildren and tell them that was when grandpa was a helicopter and non binary but identified as a woman and lived his poor childhood life offended....

[@brianwilliams-se5jy]

Was he a smuggler?

[@anowhouston]

@@brianwilliams-se5jy i knew somebody would ask this lol. NO, he fought in Vietnam and grew up in a different time. he just tells stories like this guy as if they took the same story telling class is all i mean

[@brianwilliams-se5jy]

@@anowhouston 👍, thank him for his service!

[@terryhill4732]

This guy has a heck of a voice to tell stories, clear and plain and sounds believable

Also send Roland the headless Thompson gunner

[@GallowsPole805]

Don’t forget the gunslinger Bo Diddley….

[@thanksleft]

The creepiest thing about this guy, to me, is that he's actually a hardened career criminal. He's spent 30 years in prison. But he comes across as a wise, kind -hearted, loyal, noble, grandpa type. Nobody survives being a international drug trafficker for that many years by being noble and loyal. Everybody's got a persona...great actor too

[@khure711]

Context is everything, the man is sitting in a comfortable chair with a cool drink in a comfortable room telling stories about his life. It’s easy to look happy and non threatening in that kind of environment. Put him in a situation that his life of family are in danger and I’m sure you’d see a emotionless vicious cold hearted man.

[@ejakathebeast]

You survive by being loyal 😂 it’s the opposite of what you say

[@howey935]

I’ve read in another smugglers book (Mr Nice by Howard Marks) that Roger Reaves is a good man and would never betray his friends and wasn’t violent. I’ve also seen a documentary on Australian prisons and Roger was there doing 15 years for cocaine smuggling and would have gotten 8 years if he cooperated. But I bet he’s got some skeletons in his closet.

[@dominicdangelo4801]

.... I was thrown in Ryker's. Arrested by dea at age 19/20 for federal trafficking They pulled 18g in a substance off me before I hopped trains to go to FL. Loyalty. It's t More often that those without it r exposed and killed. Undying unwavering Loyalty is something naturally instilled since birth either u have it or u don't.

[@emilymvance]

That is a superb point…

[@Ryan-cx5zr]

I love hearing an old southern man out of context. I’ve been hearing this kinda voice tell stories my whole life but it just feels different

[@sfenn73]

We southern women never stop talking because our families love us.

[@gregnelson222]

Tosh was in that group to. He fell off the radar hope he is still doing well. He had some stories to tell all the way back to Cuba and JFK's Dallas trip.

[@chadbomb9782]

😂😂😂😂😂 eat 🍄🍄 an listen to this . haha im out . love you shawn . god bless every one .

[@weidles]

What a story.

[@scubasteve3032]

Yeah, I don’t think that dude Renaldo was alone.

[@Filmpilot]

I remember flying in the Gulf of Mexico for the real Bristow helicopters 1980 and we would see smugglers in fixed wing painted in coast colors 100 miles out flying north north east towards Arkansas.

[@brandonmay6287]

That’s awesome

[@wesxproductions2685]

“Who killed Barry”? Is crazy

[@jeaniefoust6502]

[@LynneCorcoran-uh7jf]

If ya'll look up Boys on the Tracks? Mena may have played a part in that??

[@richt1907]

Damn that was good !!

I’m in Mena Arkansas right now lol

[@billyjean9484]

Oh the pain. He could have retired with 40 million but kept going and got 40 years in prison.

[@KingShxdow_]

still got millions though. mans ain't smiling like that 24/7 for nothing. wife didn't stay with him for nothing neither. paid his dues, he had too. but he still got money. you're a fool if you think people like that don't get millions and start splitting it up and hiding it. still rich.

[@billyjean9484]

@waytxxlit No, he's broke. Dope cases don't have restitution, so they will tell how much they have. Wife had to work and left him multiple times over the years in prison. None of them worked out, so now they are together.

[@btcurry1]

Stories he told are entertaining, not to the communities in America his coke smuggling helped to destroy

[@hoopslaa5235]

Can you say pro vaxx without saying youre pro cuck and a snitch? 🫣😉 the rest of us believe guns and drugs for every free consenting adult who CAN police themsleves and has integrity. So many of your personal friends and lawyers and doctors and tax preparers and loan officers are ‘doing’ drugs recreationally consensually willingly. But you keep smoking your cigarettes and coffee and soda and alcohol and pain meds you pathological liar minimizer exaggerator extremist. You only fool the fools…fool 😉

[@btcurry1]

@@Aliens-Videos I'm not speaking about the. It's the families that got destroyed the ones that didn't make those choices. Yet they were along for the ride down the slippery slope. Due to NO FAULT of their own.

[@jaydubs6354]

Lol can’t blame the carrier. People make up their mind and decide to try drugs and if they end up addicted then that’s on them. It was their choice until it wasn’t.

[@WLBarton4466]

Dixie Mafia took a lot of loads in crop dusters, mostly from drops in Louisiana. Then toss the bundles out in northeast Georgia. Atlanta in the late 1970s to late 80s never had a drought of coca. Gainsville in Hall Co. was a drop off spot.

Anyone going to cover the rumors of Barry Seal being CIA?
