Shawn Ryan Show - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Shawn brings it!
Just finished 149 with three time guest Sarah Adams and had to write my first ever review for a podcast. If you have the stomach to find out what America is really up against, start with this amazingly informative interview. Sarah is a highly regarded terror expert whose credentials speak for themselves. She shares some jaw dropping information that will have you thinking about our position in the world for days after.
Shawn consistently brings personable subject experts and real world professionals to his table and parses out information you will not find ANYWHERE else. His questions come from his extensive experience serving our great Nation in many capacities both known and unknown. The best compliment I think a man can receive is that he’s the kinda dude you’d want to share a beer with. That correct of a man.
In a time when our information is doled out like it’s gifts from above, Shawn pulls back the membrane and gives us a real world, up close and personal look at the truth, all from well vetted experts. Can’t recommend The Shawn Ryan show enough. Well worth your time. Some of this info might even save your life some day.

Absolutely amazing podcast. The conversations with CAPT Geary, Eddie Gallagher, and Gina Carano are just a few of the many outstanding examples of real, raw conversations that are absolutely captivating. I’ve also shared the interview with Eddie Penney as an introduction of your podcast to several of my friends because of his amazing story of salvation and testimony. My best friend was on Extortion 17 and was also on Adam Brown’s last mission, and your podcast and these conversations honor those that have served, continue to serve, and most importantly made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Thank you for what you do!

Shawn does incredible work with veteran stories as well as in your face topics that some shows shy away from. As a combat veteran, this show brings light to a real struggle for returning men and women from overseas combat deployments. It gives incredible insight to what it’s like to be in the heat of battle and the scars, seen and unseen, that comes from those tours. Thank you Shawn and team for your amazing work and bringing these stories home!

This podcast came to me in a time of altering faith.
Shawn and his band of brothers/friends/guests impacted my life in such a way it changed it forever.
I am a Marine Corps vet of four years active service, deployed on a MEU, never saw combat or anything drastic, actually most would comparably say my service was too easy. To which after hearing these living testimonies, I myself would agree. However, I felt a cloud of confusion, anger, anxiety, and fear that followed me around post EAS.
My life felt purposeless after the Marines. Floating around searching for the next task to conquer and continue about my business to the next project. Nothing was fulfilling, I was at a wall. Back to the world with what felt like no one cheering me on besides my own demons telling me to jump. To take the leap and hush all the thoughts I had all at once.
Then, a glimmer of hope. A sliver of faith peered through all those dark and cloudy thoughts. A peek into God the Almighty, I opened my eyes and had realized that His signs had been all around me all along… That I was denying my heart and soul His acceptance. He’s always been there, forgiving, loving, caring, guiding.
He’s everything. The words of these warriors, the lovers, the fighters, the speakers, and onward this podcast has brought before me has solely inspired me to find my faith in God, and turn my life to Him, as I always should have.
Shawn, I’m not sure if you’ll ever see this or if your guests will, but you all have altered my life to have purpose once again. Found in the soul of God Almighty, the Father of the Son, Jesus Christ.
I’ve felt the Holy Spirit enter me and here I remain as one single vessel. Thank you.
You’ve saved me.
God bless you, forever, Shawn and team.

SRS is an opinion and entertainment show. But it’s just not fun or entertaining any longer. For a long time I thought of this show as a must-listen. But gone are the fairly diverse, often engaging and normally thought provoking discussions. In their place are increasingly far-right evangelicals and born-agains just adding to the toxicity and spouting the MAGA greatest hits. The show isn’t news. It doesn’t claim to be. Sadly it’s become part of the right wing angertainment ecosystem. Which is a bummer because Mr Ryan is someone whose service to our country is something I deeply respect and his experiences add up to normally fantastic interviews. Oh well. On to the next.
