Off scRIPt with Rip Ryan Ripken

Host of the podcast, Ryan Ripken reflects back on these 20 episodes and talks about what can be in store for next season. Very short and brief episode, but I promise…MUCH MORE TO COME.

Welcome Nick Moore to the pod! Nick and I sit down for brunch at the Iron Rooster Restaurant.



Nick is the Long Snapper (LS) for the Baltimore Ravens. But the thing is, Nick Moore did not get to the NFL the way you might think. Actually, he was chasing his other passion first...baseball. Nick played 4 years of professional baseball for the Boston Red Sox Organization.



We talk about his journey, baseball, football, food, and so much more!

Welcome Adam Brett Walker II to the pod! He is currently playing overseas in Japan with the Yomiuri Giants!

Adam was a 3rd round pick of the Minnesota Twins out of Jacksonville University. Walker found himself on the doorstop to the Major Leagues, but unfortunately never got the opportunity to debut.

However, not making it the Big Leagues did not stop Adam's journey to something he might have never imagined when he started playing baseball.

We talk about:
Professional And Minor League Baseball
Experiences overseas in Japan
Trying different foods
Reminiscing on some old stories
