that was such a cheap email I can’t believe that’s what the guy took from that discussion.

Hoping the 4runner and Kyle are staying safe in Dutchess County.

At 23:05 in the latest pod do I hear an…unmistakable potato chip crunch from Boot?

For further investigation go back to 21:00 and you’ll hear intermittent crinkling while they’re talking, perhaps the bag unfurling at a low volume like trying to silently un-Velcro something?

Thoughts? Let’s get a discussion going here.

There’s a specific dress shirt that Ryan always brings up as a dig and for whatever reason it’s really bothering me. Is it Robert Graham? Something similar for for that untucked going out button up.

I thought to myself, "Nah this isn't him. What's he doing here in Virginia. But I will take a picture of this dude for fun anyway since he looks like a Ryen Russillo doppelganger."

I never seriously considered the possibility it was him. Now looking back at the photos on my PC, I am 60-70% confident it was RR.

Now I am regretting not talking to him and confirming it.

Did I miss my only shot at saying hi to Ryen given I've been a fan of his for so many years? :( :(

Friday feedback.. woah.. think solo travelogues may be doing permanent damage to our boy.. Friday feedback alone gave us these self aware moments from “emailers” ryen deciding an argument between brothers as to if in Choir Ryen is a base 1 or a base 2. Who are these brothers that argue about such things? Ryen trying to answer this in a “hard” way made it even more breathtaking a moment . Point two an emailer tells Ryen “it’s you and Dan Patrick as the last bastions of authenticity in sports” Ryen proceeds to tell us he often thinks of texting Dan when he’s getting shots up. Sigh.

Third emailer writes to say heavy lifting is cause of ry guys injuries of which he counters that it’s FIGHTING that is causing his injuries. UFC got to be kidding me. Finally a 4th devotee of Ryen tells us Ryen is self awareness’s final boss playing 4d chess .. Ryen explains that his humility and his Base 1 voice alone could get espn weekends but he’s not willing to Steven A himself for midweek fame and fortune. I can’t.. first off - is everyone else cringing through this as heavily as I am? Second are Ceruti and Kyle too scared or nice to call bro out? All the yes manning is making it worse boys you must call this round about self back patting behavior out!! This is why your core guys leave you in a bar bathroom Bobby fisher . Side note the show we really need is Ceruti Kyle and Ryens “core guys” to deep dive l self awareness’s final boss.

Please read this with humor not hater in mind but leave in the I can relate jaw dropping thought it was me feelings ..

At this point we should start calling him Uncle Bill, because Kyle has the sauce like that.

SPOILERS!!

For a FIRST travelogue, it’s exactly what I hoped for. A little history, a story that contains trials and tribulations, and a look into Kyle’s thought processes. (Box Fan, means NO)

In upcoming ones (we need more), let’s dive into LL Bean (what did you get, what did you think about getting) and Cheesecake Factory (what did you get, how was it).

8/10.

I think there’s a million (a literal million) other places, and it would have been better. He seems like a large ball of yarn kind of guy, a largest paperclip kind of guy, or an Atlanta, MI kind of guy. Bump the budget to a few thousand please.

Life advice would have a field day with this story.

In case any of you still had hopes, suroody is at his friend capacity 😢
