The Ryen Russillo Show

I’ve been listening to Ryen since I was 18 which was 8 years ago now. Found out about him through him being on Bill Simmons. As a Celtics fan I was a bigger fan of Bill initially but over the last 4-5 years I became a bigger fan of Ryen’s show. I look forward to his analysis of the NBA and during NFL and CFB he has great discussions on the season while not getting super into the weeds of X’s and O’s. He doesn’t pretend know to every single thing about X’s and O’s of football. Instead this forces his analysis to be bigger picture which I can appreciate as a fan that just wants to have a good feeling of what’s going on around the league outside of my favorite team. I appreciate that he occasionally has Jon Anik on and I wish he was able to fit more UFC stuff at least once a month or something. Life advice is always a highlight of the pod. The guys have great chemistry and make me laugh often. I also appreciate it’s a part of the podcast I can play with the woman in the car. Sometimes it even creates good discussion. One improvement would be having better time codes in the description for Apple Podcasts.

Nate Tice is too smart and too good at his job to die on the explosives hill. Almost like he gets paid every time he says it. “Gotta generate some explosives” is something no one that watches football has ever said but he shoves it down your throat. Big plays has been working for decades. Like booze - mix in a big plays with every explosive. That said - top 3 sports pod out there. Just so sick of the word explosives.

why have a guest if you are gonna talk the whole time and interrupt your guests, take life advice from rye n, kyle, and whatever his name is is laughable

Awesome chemistry between nate tice and RR they need to do a full time show together
