    Greatest podcast currently running
    This is my favorite and probably the greatest podcast currently available. Great guests. Interesting topics. Shawn is becoming a fantastic interviewer. Not that he wasn’t good to begin with but he has definitely improved over the life of the show. It gets better and better as time goes on. I was totally against watching the Kris Beck episode and I finally gave it a chance and it turned out to be one of my favorite interviews. Changed my point of view on certain things that I had very strong beliefs about. Give it a chance if u haven’t already. I would be shocked if u can’t find anything that makes u think, educates u and possibly changes your mind on your stance on certain topics. Thank u Shawn. Keep it going and I will continue to listen, support and spread the word about the show.

    Shawn Ryan Show - by far the best out there
    I cannot thank you enough for starting your podcast. I love how you interview, the quality of the people you bring on. The information, call to actions, things to research are the best. Real life stuff you can use. Opening my eyes and the many I share with. Thank you!

    The one and only
    This is the first podcast I’ve ever listened to and I became hooked instantly. It’s also the only one I listen to because I can’t walk away. Shawn has extremely interesting guests and allows them to open up and show the world their highest highs and lowest lows. He is the epitome of an interviewer who lets them speak and be heard. My only complaint is that my attention gets drawn in so deep that I stop what I’m doing to listen and find myself staring at my phone! This show is so great that I felt the need to write a review, the first time I’ve ever reviewed anything. You need to start listening if you haven’t already

    Best interviews with the most gracious host
    The Shawn Ryan show is more than a podcast. It is a window to the world of reality. Shawn asks important questions and then lets his guests tell their stories. I appreciate the scope of guests. This show and the interviews are already legendary. Highly recommend!!

    Inspiring accounts from War Fighters
    Best pod cast in existence. The greatest men from the greatest country with the greatest training telling first hand accounts of war is so eye opening and inspirational for a civilian like myself. Just sent my dad, who’s a mega fan, a Vigilance OG hat. Tried to order some gummy bears but they’re sold out. Kudos to you man. That’s awesome! Thank you for your service and thank you for shedding light on everything that our nations heroes go through to provide the freedoms that I enjoy everyday without deserving them. Thank you seems so inadequate but thank you so much for everything you have done and continue to do for our country and our veterans.

    Podcast of truth
    I just recently found your show, I’ve watched it on YouTube and listen to it in my truck. I feel like this show is putting out quality content and is striving to shine light on dark truths that are being ignored daily. The guest are entertaining and I feel like I’m being educated on a variety of subjects.

  • Dean Batchelor
    A must listen
    Everything from current events that mainstream media won’t cover to insane war stories, this show has it all. Shawn is able to ask the right questions to get guests to open up, many times with things they’ve never shared anywhere else. Gunfights, childhood trauma and the consequences, ancient mysteries, gov’t corruption, it’s all here. You’ll laugh your butt off one minute and be fighting back tears the next. This show is always a wild ride

    Like an audio book
    These are like mini audio books or documentaries. I love them. I learn a ton and really see the untold side of these heroes. I also love the non-military interviews. Great content!

    Conversations that help
    Shawn, I work as a federal agent with a foundational background in local policing where I experienced objectively awful things. Many of your guests (just finished the VanSant duo) have a common message: it’s okay to talk about trauma. I couldn’t agree more. The more you talk about it, the more you distribute the burden, and the lighter that burden becomes. And sometimes there’s a cool story intertwined. While that’s clearly not the only type of helpful information coming out of your podcast, it’s certainly impactful. So, thanks sir for extracting always interesting lessons from your guests that regular folks can use to apply in their own lives. God’s work is done in many ways, and you have been blessed to do some of it. Update: just finished listening to the Mr. Ballen interview. Because Mr. B is such a good story teller, his response to interview questions was as interesting to me as the way he delivers his podcast stories. I loved every minute of it. And I also love all your other interviews, Shawn. It’s truly an honor to be in the presence of greatness, even if only by audible connection.

    Understanding
    I’m very fascinated with how Shawn have give me an opportunity to gain a better understanding of how their mind and the mind of many other veterans work, and supper glad to see how he actively is helping us see the side of war and other topics that we as civilians never see, so thank you and keep up the good work

    Great podcast, chill host
    Rock solid military podcast in which the seemingly mellow host (Shawn, lets his guests ramble and roll without interrupting and only helps the flow of the conversation with perfecting timed questions.

    I look forward to every episode!
    I started listening after I heard you be interviewed on another podcast back in 2020. Originally I was just seeking a glimpse into the world my dad lived in and never spoke about with us girls growing up. Starting from the beginning, getting caught up on my long commutes. Fast forward to me actually looking forward to Mondays and hoping the new episode will be at least several hours long. Listening provided me with a new perspective on why my dad was like he was but saddened me that he fought those demons alone. It makes me happy to see so much progress for service members who are struggling but I know there is more to be done. Thanks for the interesting, eye opening, in depth, often funny, educational content!
  • JAYDIPIETRO63

The content, the guests the overall presentation just knocks it out of the park! Thank you Shawn and team for everything you do and for all your hard work putting this together and bringing it to us!!

    Must watch from episode 1
    I’ve been watching the show for a little over a year now and it is the most realest, rawest, honest and helpful show I’ve ever seen. I started from episode 1, I’m so glad I did cause I would have missed everything had I jumped around episodes
