    Always a way out
    Shawn, your most recent episode with Joshua Broome was one of my most favorite yet. The story of falling to the lowest of low, to the redemption of knowing Christ’s love and forgiveness was just absolutely amazing. What an inspiring person he is. Thank you Shawn for bringing so many different people on your show, from all facets of life. So awesome!

    Great show
    Have been listening/watching Shawn for about a year now. The information he has put out has helped me so much. He is a great interviewer/host and lets his guests tell their story with very little interruption. Keep it up man! I’m a fan for life.

    Love it
    Great stories about real life heros and their personal experiences. As a former soldier, this is great to hear, but it also exposes the problems military personnel experience in and out of the service. These stories aren’t all glory and look at me type stories, real people, very humble and Shawn does a great job of bringing the stories out. Love it. I am still at a low number in the shows but 100% addicted. Keep up highlighting the topics we need to hear. And thank you for your Patronage

    Much Needed
    Shawn - your authenticity, transparency and deep compassion are inspiring. As a life-long follower of Jesus, it is really encouraging to track your journey and expression of faith. Thank you for speaking truth about global events, our incredible servicemen and women, and spiritual realities. You and your guests are currently helping me through a very difficult and dark time personally. Keep fighting the good fight as you’ve consistently done - it is being used to positively impact people beyond what you could imagine.

    Intel Briefs/Podcast
    While I was an Anti-terrorism Officer in Turkey we always had sidebar discussions on how individuals will get into the US. We all agreed it would be through southern border and that was in 05. These intel briefs and the individuals on your podcast shed light on a light of issues the US have little to no knowledge of. I am so thankful to have found this podcast. Please continue to be blessed with the great content you and putting out.

    #192 Strobel and Burke
    Sean, in this episode you mentioned difficulty understanding certain passages of the Bible. I fully agree with Lee and John’s answer, but I’ll add in some suggestions from my experience: get a study bible for the translation you want (NIV, NAS, ESV, etc). In it should be a verse-by-verse breakdown of what theologians think it means. These got me through the really tough passages. And per Lee’s suggestion, there are so many dedicated commentary books. The next thing: time. You’ll learn more with time. And, as I was told, the Bible says: “Jesus loves me, this I know”,once you understand that, there isn’t any ‘more advanced material.’ We just get to work on learning that better. Best of luck!

    Your show inspires me to be a better man and to step up for any injustice. I thank you for that everything you’re putting out needs to be shared and I thank God my savior that you have made it your mission and passion to share the knowledge and make us all aware of what’s going on in this sick world we live in. Keep up the good work Shawn and expose the dark and bring it to the light. Don’t ever give up or be silenced. I love you Bro

    Good stuff
    I only do a review when it’s worth putting a review on it, and this podcast THE SHAWN RYAN SHOW is awesome. That’s the easiest way to describe it, One word awesome.
  • 98Bo
    Long time listener, first time reviewer
    I love getting a notification that there’s a new SRS pod out. I think the stories that are being broke on this show are vastly understated and with that being said, you should have Rich (Angry Cops) on to talk about the situations in Buffalo NY
  • 0000000999999888888
    One of the best podcasts available
    Shawn, I have recently been traveling for work and as such I’m on more airplanes than I’ve ever been. But having one of your podcasts to look forward to listen to has made my flights and 4hr drives after I land more palatable. I listen to mostly you and Mike Rowe because you both have two things on every show. 1. Interesting guests But those would be wasted without #2. Curious and intelligent questions. Keep up the good work and I’ll be listening during my commute to Lajitas TX. Mike Greene

    Personal growth from others struggles, triumphs and faith journeys
    Shawn Ryan’s background may be rooted in the military and CIA, but his podcast is so much more than that. Each guest, many of them veterans, shares a piece of their soul—and through their stories, we connect, reflect, and grow. Listening isn’t just entertainment; it’s a personal journey. These episodes have helped shape the person I strive to become. I look forward to every new episode drop with real anticipation. Thank you, Mr. Ryan, for pouring your heart into this and for giving your listeners something truly meaningful.

Sean your are the REAL thing!! Stay true and steadfast and may the Lord continue to bless you!! I have learned and reflected on many things thanks to you!!

    Awesome podcast
    This is an awesome podcast. I love hearing the stories behind the scenes with all these warriors and heroes. All the military members and first responders have great stories and Shawn has a great way of getting them to have a platform for getting them out to all of us in the audience. Keep up the great work

    What a story
    My favorite so far. These are stories all should listen too. What a warrior. Thank you Mr. Meyer for all that you have done.
  • Brother, one each
    Brother, one each.
    Great show except the misnamed “Temple Mount” is not the site of the ancient Temple. That was located in the City of David near or over the Gihan Spring. The “Temple Mount” was the site of the ancient Roman Fortress Antonia. They needed that much space to accommodate all the soldiers there. Josephuse wrote of a causeway that connected the fortress with the Temple.
  • Roogoodman
    I love the guest’s you have on
    Your guest list is the best is there anyway you could get Double Tap Phap on. I’ve heard some of his story and it is truly unbelievable
  • Gresddgggyfdd
    Great show
    I’ve never been too into podcasts, but this one is awesome. I listen to it every day on my commute to work, during work, and whenever I’ve got downtime. Each episode has something anyone can take out of. Can’t wait to catch up, thank you for the great content.
  • Dave Shelley
    Great show!!
    I have listened to so many of your podcasts and as an ex service-member I really enjoy your many military personnel active and retired! Shawn I also love that you have surrendered your life to Jesus and that you have many Faith based guests on!! So refreshing!! Also the info on terrorists in America has been very eye opening!! Keep up the great work brother!! Put Jesus first in everything you do!! Much love brother!!
  • Aksarahbeth
    I love your show!
    Dear Mr. Ryan, I loved this episode with Lee Strobel and John Burke. I would love to see you interview Lorna Byrne! Please look into her books, and her interviews. I know you would love having her talk about guardian angels on your show! 🙏

    Shawn Ryan Show
    thank you Shawn. the shows are great. I was particularly taken by the Tom Spooner and Chris Vanzant interviews. Also, i have a photo of a UAP following an Arleigh Burke DDG out of Charleston Harbor. The Arleigh Burke was coming from the area of the Cooper river where the Navel Weapons Station. Nukes have been stored there for years. file:///Users/hjosephhindman/Library/Messages/Attachments/31/01/7B299E4B-0E2B-4037-BF3A-E1FDF03861E1/IMG_2187.jpeg.

    LIFE CHANGING
    I stumbled on this podcast on Easter Sunday April 20,2025 and it has totally changed my eternal destiny forever. I was a typical child raised a Southern Baptist in the Deep South. I knew the Bible, taught Sunday school for years and was counting on a profession of faith at 16 years old and baptism as my ticket to heaven. I knew and believed in the perfect Son of God,Jesus Christ who willingly died on a cross, was buried and was resurrected on the 3rd day to pay for my sins. But I never embraced Him into my heart or tried to know Him as a person. There was no personal relationship where I just talked with him and listened for His still, small voice. There was no change in the trajectory of my life that would have been evidence of a real heart change. Until I listened to episode 192 of Shawn’s podcast today. Now I’m 67 years old and praise God it wasn’t too late for me. HE LOVES ME. HE ALWAYS HAS AND HAS PATIENTLY WAITED ALL THESE YEARS FOR ME. Praise God for this podcast and these 3 men who have pointed me to THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE. He is who my heart has been looking for. I can’t hardly wait to get to know my Lord, my Love, my Light and my everything.

    The 444 sign
    Listened to today’s podcast with Lee Strbel & John Burke where they mentioned Shawn seeing 444’s might be his Guardian Angel letting him know he’s protected. Then tonight I get into my car to go to my Catholic Church for the Easter Vigil Mass & after I start the engine, I noticed the screen says 444 miles left until I need a fuel refill. 😳🙏🏻
  • God Bless The🇺🇸
    Amazing Show
    Amazing show, even from the clips if you can’t watch the whole thing are wonderful. Original, you can tell he and his guests are not bought and paid for. Genuinely good guy, recommend to anyone wanting something unbiased.
  • LawsonMatthew

    This show took a wrong turn and got into politics instead of complaining about them. You can take the agent out of the psyop but I guess you can’t take the psyop out of the agent. Good luck Shawn.

    Why Jesus had to die on the cross
    God never intended for man to die, but since we turned away from God in the garden our judgment for sin was death; the world became so depraved overtime that he destroyed it with a flood saving Noah and his family; we get a second chance. But we cannot keep from committing sins, due to the old nature “original sin” from the garden and that is how you see the world today. So God promised not to bring a flood again so the only way he could save his children who he had given “free will” was to provide them a path. That is why Jesus had to die - so if we recognize and accept him as our savior we can join God in heaven. Gene Rindels - “Semper Fi”
