Ryen was the most relatable person at ESPN.

Tough day for the regular guy. Ryen was a refreshing change from the typical sports blow hard. Selfishly, I hope he comes back to the medium in some form or fashion

Great close, loved the part with his dad and Ryen just shooting the shite about the struggles he pushed through to get into the door. For real, that's the american dream. frick I'm gonna miss listening to this guy. ESPN now officially sucks dick.

I had to miss today's show but I am legit saddened. I used to listen to that show from everywhere in the world and felt like I was at home.

That’s the great thing about he and SVP, seem like genuine guys and never sold out as hot take guys to get ahead.

don’t blame him for not being happy about the time slot switch

I have no sports talk show any more. Russillo was the last of the last. He was fantastic at what he does. ESPN fricked up yet again.

Like others have said, I figured out pretty early it was Simmons. The back and forth was cracking me up. I appreciate how Russillo snuck him in on the last day. The ESPN/Simmons split was pretty ugly.

I enjoyed his dad being on there. I figured Ryen might choke up a little, but he hung in there.

My favorite part was after the end of the show.........he just let out a big exhale and gave Outsider this look.

for those who missed him signing off

The segment with his dad was awesome. I’m surprised he held it together. Sounded like that was his dads ultimate proud parent moment to see his kid ride into the sunset.
