    Just as Ryan claims, this podcast is by the people, for the people. I appreciate the positivity that Ryan brings his episodes, makes all listens enjoyable, compared to the ragebait that so many other channels have. I’d pay good money for Ryan to handle my news of any kind, but for now, Magic will work just fine.
