it's a weird question but I wanted to ask you if you were if you were ever a
spy
I really want to make this video because I'm 21 and I still have no idea what my
dad does and the things I do know about him make no sense my dad is the first
Soviet born to be a captain in the US Navy so people always stop that he was a
spy and I never really got a chance to ask
him because he was constantly working overseas a few years ago he retired so I
thought I'd finally have a chance to ask my dad because he'd be around more often
the only problem is he's still constantly traveling like right now
using Ukraine which is a country that's in the middle of a huge war with Russia
why he's in Ukraine I have no idea so right now I'm gonna drive to my
parents's house and see if I can find anything that gives me more information
about my dad
okay so there are a few reasons I think my dad is a spy
reason number one the basement so not only was my dad born in Russia he also
has a communist dungeon I mean this place is crazy I don't know where he got
this stuff or why he collects it but a lot of it is Soviet things
there's Lenin's head just a massive statue of Lenin's head and the support
of Stalin why would he have a portrait of Stalin there's different mannequins
and and so many guns and swords but it's a lot of communistic propaganda flags
different writings on the wall he literally has KGB books he has an entire
shelf of Russian books Russian literature Russian history Russian spy
books okay he also has an office down here that's just basically full of more
Lenin heads for some reason and Stalin and just dictators I honestly don't know
what any of this stuff is and I have no idea why a US soldier and someone who
considers themselves an American would have so many Soviet and communist things
in their basement
reason number two his LinkedIn so his resume starts out making sense he went
to Temple University and got a Bachelor of pharmacy and then started doing
pharmacy in the military but here's where things start getting weird in 1992
he becomes an investigator for PAL mi-8 commissioned in 1997 becomes a mission
commander of defense Threat Reduction agency where he deals with nuclear
missiles then starts working for NATO becomes chief of staff of NATO in Moscow
Russia and currently is a CEO of fort seal which is a computer and network
security company it gets weirder though he has three recommendations on his
LinkedIn and they're all from Russians Leonardo litski Alexander Biermann Andre
bike off Andre bike off writes he is a really
good guy reason number three my dad got kicked out of Russia twice I don't know
why my dad got kicked out of Russia the first time he got kicked out me my mom
and my sister stayed in Russia and lived without him for seven years the second I
got kicked out the embassy told all of us to leave the only information I have
is this plaque I found in the basement this was given to him when he was kicked
out of Russia in 2001 and it says for activities incompatible with his
diplomatic status reason number four mystery trips to Ukraine my dad randomly
goes to Ukraine every few months he never tells me when he's going or why I
feel like my mom probably has to know some more details because he leaves her
so much he's got to give her some sort of information
hey I just have a quick question for you do you have a sec yeah I wanted to know
why does dad always go to Ukraine what do you what kind of business
my dad just came home so I'm just gonna go ask him I have a camera is it cool if
I interview you real quick what now yeah okay I just wanted to ask you it's a
weird question but I wanted to ask you if you were if you were ever a spy well
I I guess it's all depends what you call in this file what do you mean by spy
Russians thought I was a spy with them in America a lot of people call me a spy
and I had an ID card from NATO I know that carry ID said 0:07
your your ID said that you were double-oh-seven correct but you're
saying you weren't I'm not saying anything I don't know you didn't tell me
what you think spy is when I looked at your LinkedIn know your career made like
no sense what don't understand you never did
pharmacy I did a little bit not very well but I did it when you were in
Russia what why did they think you were a spy well because you know I speak
Russian without an accent I grew up in the streets of Moscow I could get lost
there very quickly if I don't shave for a day have few vodkas I'm just like as
Russian as anyone else how come your basement looks like you're
a fan of communism you want to keep your friends close but you want to keep your
enemy even closer so you know who they are you know how they think it's why a
lot of people would mistaken me for a Russian because I was so much into it as
a matter of fact I had a boss one time at the State Department a diplomat
she actually for ten years thought I was on the Russian Navy rather than the
United States Navy and this is our diplomats so if you in this massive
connection to Russia why do you always go to Ukraine than if you're retired do
you really want to know yeah seriously yeah all right that tell you what you
can go with me this time what you want me to come with you to Ukraine yeah but
Ukraine's in the middle of a war and I'm not like trained like you are in the
military I don't know if I can go to Ukraine you'll be ok let's go
so they're they're not letting us out because of my equipment they want to
know exactly what I'm filming before they let me enter the country my dad
talked to them for a little bit I don't know what he said but we got out great
this is crazy we got picked up by another black van this one had a naked
man in it for some reason and we started to drive we stopped for a bathroom break
and I discovered the real squatty potty when I went outside I noticed my dad
made up with a random dude and gave him a bag we then went to a military
restaurant that looked just like my dad's basement and my dad met up with
more people and that's when I realized my dad comes to Ukraine to drink that
can't be it we got back in the van and the naked man was still there I started
to get pretty nervous because we were driving for a really long time and no
longer on a road he was very bumpy
the place we're staying at is hidden behind bushes all right so we're at the
location is this where we're staying yeah can I just walk in yeah
this place was beautiful oh and the Wi-Fi was internet double-oh-seven we
can stay in this bedroom or the next one there's like four or five do you have
another family here no my dad showed me the rest of the house there was a pool
spa gym area he then showed me some sort of torture chamber guys I honestly have
no idea how my dad has access to this place this is literally a James Bond
house and my dad disappeared I don't even know how to get back I'm gonna go
find my dad chill here and my dad said tomorrow he's gonna take me to a secret
place and show me what he really does in Ukraine surprise we arrived at another
random abandoned I just want to know what my dad does he told me to follow
him so I did
mutiny Rossio the key objective negatory teachers version operating in my new
version Tony Pentagon but a most honorable man awaits severe anemia on
new si NIC Hakeem is not need the Gabor on suicide no the very same scientists
eg active I think my dad's famous in Ukraine crocodilly miss nectar me the
gallery would send another ideal if another cerrado put you together to
watch the commotion unfortunately the woman was not and he's famous for
speaking out against Putin you just go on live television and talk speak out
against Putin yes that's what I do why do you do that well because I can't
really fight any longer as I used to but at least I can deliver to people
information that they need to know you seen me handing over a bag actually it
was some medicine for the soldiers who were wounded soldiers that I meet and
the restaurants and I talked to them and actually tried to find out what's going
on you've seen them hosting us in the lavish house and it's all because they
want to show appreciation means a lot for a small country like Ukraine who is
facing such a large enemy like Russia to realize that the United States is with
Ukraine not Russia in this conflict why are they or well Ukraine wanted to be
independent want to join the rest of the world Russia betrayed them and stuck a
knife in their back and annexed large part of Ukraine and attacked Ukraine
from the other side when the craniums didn't expect so young kids like you you
know they revolted and many of them got killed it got really murdered because
they voluntarily wanted to defend their country there's a lot of stuff on the
news about printing killing people who kind of go against them isn't it
dangerous to speak out against and we can't allow people like Putin intimidate
the rest of the world this were already created over 20 million refugees and
thousands of people killed this KGB thug Putin needs to be stopped before it gets
any worse so I just finished editing the video and
I just wanted to say when I started this whole thing out I had no clue why my dad
was constantly gone turns out he is literally risking his life every day
because he wants to support something he's passionate about now I still don't
know if my dad's a spy but none of that matters to me because what I do know is
that he's a badass
