  • Toxic fandom with zero cred

    There’s nothing critical or insightful about Ryan’s podcast. On top of that he is deeply toxic and pretentious, but hides from all criticism with squeals of ‘let people like what they like’. Yes, let’s do that. Except it needs to go both ways, and Ryan, unfortunately, is about as gatekeepy and rude as toxic fandom gets. You can be talentless if you’re really nice and personable, but if you don’t have any of those things going for you, what you get is a terrible podcast hosted by Ryan “See You Ne... more

  • No one could do it better than Ryan. Honest, Genuine, Smart!

    I don’t think anyone could do a better Scream show than how Ryan does it. It’s thorough, in depth, creative, and very smart. Ryan never wavers from being honest with his audience.

    Each year only gets better and better.

    He balances analyzing the films with current news and Scream-related episodes really well — the podcast always feels fresh and current.

    I have so much respect for Ryan. He does 2 shows per week at a high quality. He also has perseverance to keep going in the face of adversit... more

  • The best Scream podcast!

    I absolutely love this show because of the smart critical analysis and perspective on the Scream franchise. But one of the greatest things about it is that Ryan is authentic and honest. He gives us his real opinions and doesn’t virtue signal or play to both sides on the topic at hand for the sake of appeasing anyone. He makes me rethink each Scream film in ways I had never considered and I look forward to listening every week. With Scream 7 on the horizon, his episodes have only gotten better an... more
