    Leaving the Theater feels like sitting down with a friend after a movie who also happens to be a sharp critic and a great storyteller. Ron brings a mix of insight, vulnerability, and humor that makes every episode feel personal and engaging.

  • RYJ is pure sunshine!

    Ronald young jr. is the best! He has so much joy (love listening just to hear him laugh) and I love listening to him talk about movies. He is fair and honest and rooting for filmmakers and writers and actors! He’s my favorite “critic” (in parentheses because he is t your typical pedantic, caustic critic). Keep up the great work! Also love you on pop culture happy hour! You are always the best guest host!
