Ryan was recently a guest on Shilo Brooks’ podcast, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XntqZm1c-k" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Old School</a>, to talk about a book that’s meant a lot to him over the years, Walker Percy’s <a href="https://www.thepaintedporch.com/products/moviegoer?_pos=1&_sid=2baf282b5&_ss=r" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Moviegoer</a>.
