There is a reason why Ryen was so beloved by his listeners. Always relatable and tells it like it is. My weekday afternoons are never going to be the same but grateful we got to hear him on the airwaves all these years.
I'm sorry I hadn't seen this until now. Ryen, you were absolutely the most honest thing about ESPN radio and I miss that everyday. Thank you for what you brought day in and day out. I hope you find a new home and that you do it soon - if you haven't already.
Ryen might be the most honest, realist, down to earth guy ESPN has. Him and Van Pelt are freaking great together. I am Fromm Hyannis Ma, he is from Martha’s Vineyard, I love when he brings up his home town and tells stories growing up.
Listened as a high schooler in Kentucky, and listened as I came back home to South Korea. I listened to you for over 10 years and I’ve never listened to anyone that was better than you. Anyways, I hope you succeed as a writer! If not, please come back🙏
The best of the best, IMO. ESPN is running their network down the drain. I hope this isn't the last we hear Ryen on the radio. His show was entertaining and informative. He isn't a chest thumper and "I am right because I say I am right" kind of clown ESPN has been gravitating towards. Best of luck in everything you do, Ryen.
Years ago i bought an XM radio hookup for my tool truck so that i could listen to Dan Patrick, and then Colin Cowherd, then SVP and Ryan came along, and the sad day SVP left, but he was replaced by a great guy in Danny K. I loved listening to ESPN radio over that period, it made the day go by easier, made me laugh and sad at certain times. The last straw was RR leaving, i do not even listen to ESPN radio anymore, and the reason im actually here today was in my search to find out where the hell RR is at the moment. Get a show on another Network Ryen, like Dan Patrick, Cowturd did....Your missed, i need something good to listen to in the afternoons after the DP show goes off the air....PS, ESPN Get your shit together
ESPN is garbage for how they've handled the past year.... Should have NEVER fired Danny, you could tell immediately that Ryen was never a guy who could do a show by himself like Cowherd, and its a shame because it never should have come to that... Danny & Ryen was a great show, almost as good or better than Ryen & SVP
R0N I think he could handle a show on his own but I feel like he lost interist once Danny was let go and he was mentally on his way out. Then the fact he didn't get a raise to remotivate him ended his plan to stay. He hopes to do script writing in LA from what I read so I hope it works out.
ESPN really messed up how they treated Ryen. It’s no coincidence he has a top 4 most listened sports podcast. I guess it’s ratings but he is a much better sports podcaster than Screamin A Smith or Skip. They are trolls and ESPN wanted that. That was the start of the end. You had great talent and wanted clickbait.
As an aside, I hope Ryen dunks in your face. He’s great and you’d rather have trolls like Nick Wright on TV who want clicks. ESPN used to be awesome now it sucks with Nick Wright and Pat McAfee

Listen to his podcast, the Ryen Russilo show. He’s basically doing his radio thing but in podcast form.

Brett Fischer I agree

Ryen. I hope you get to spend more time with Bill from LA.
wow- that was an amazing segment. It's very rare to hear such authenticity.
5 years later, still doing his thing on The Ringer!

Well 4 years later & you are 100% right !! He's on the Ringer & it's not the same but he's still authentic & that means everything...
Ryen a real one.

Gonna miss Ryen...
Thank you Ryen!!!!
Was he yelling at us in a scolding tone? Out of happiness?!?
Mizzou helmet littt
Print the shirts!
Really disappointed in this news. Dude is good at what he does.
Going to FS1
So, where's he going? And what show is replacing his slot?
Will Cain takes over as full time host. He will be on 3-6 PM, while Stephen A. Smith takes over the 1-3 time slot.
