Oh Ryan, I teared up listening to you telling your story of recent events. I don't know you personally but I'm praying for you and hoping you make a full recovery and able to be the incredible Dad not just to your kids but all of us Dadless Honeydewers. We love you Sickler! Keep focusing on your health and recovery and we'll be here waiting for you when you're ready. 💚💚💚

[@joeyfaoro6308]

Oh no! What happened!?

[@merewing]

well said and agreed. hugs.

[@travisdemons9474]

Perfectly said 👏

Most of the more severe illnesses happen to people by surprise, unexpectantly, impacting first in the brain, then in the corresponding organ which that part of the brain controls. The end of WWI had absolutely everything to do with the Flu and lung TB outbreak that occurred killing millions. In nature, the biological conflict linked with a territorial fear (just what it means-a fear in your territory, your home, your community, etc.) is a widening of the bronchia (tissue loss). Your body attempts to widen your bronchia in order to allow more air into your lungs to give you more strength and energy to fight to keep your territory safe. Stay with me.......The biological conflict linked with a death fright impacts the lungs. The lungs attempt to grow larger in order to allow more air in because breath equals life, as we all know. No breath equals death. While you are in the fear or death fright conflict, you notice no symptoms of “disease”, except you have cold hands, cold feet, you can’t sleep, you awaken at 3 AM every night, you have little appetite. During the war, millions of people were in fear of the bombing of their homes and cities where the war was most active. Fearing for their lives, their loved ones in the war, their ability to survive. The food in the stores was sparse due to shortages. This lasted for 4 long years! The longer the conflict, the worse the healing phase. Within 2 weeks of the German Chancellor announcing the end of WWI, these millions of people ALL went into the healing phase all at the same time. It is during the healing phase that you experience symptoms of illness! What is the healing phase of the bronchia widening? Severe bronchitis, pneumonia. The body attempts to refill this lost tissue and you experience inflammation, fever, coughing, body aches, fatigue, etc. What is the healing phase of the extra lung tissue that grew? Decomposing of the tissue by TB bacteria and fungi. The symptoms of this healing phase are: severe coughing up of blood and tissue, fever, inflammation, severe mucous, body aches, fatigue. During this decomposing of the extra tissue (tumor), the body expels a lot of protein, and without replenishment, severe protein loss can result in death. Antibiotics did not exist yet. If TB bacteria does not exist in a person or they have been vaccinated against TB (big mistake), then the tumor will simply encapsulate and become dormant and not harm you. Who died during the Spanish Flu? Mainly the poor who could not afford to buy meat and proper nourishment, and the people who were directly impacted by the bombings and destruction of their homes. Millions of people suffered fear and death frights during the fighting of WWI, and millions of people all went into healing at the end of it. Not everyone was affected because not everyone suffered the same way. It’s not a “flu”, it’s not something you “catch”. It’s biological, meaningful, and unavoidable. One hundred years later, a Fear Campaign begins, using the media to spread it......

Another day we’re on top of the dirt, not under it. Is a good damn day. Appreciate the laughter man! Hope you’re doing better.

[@willthomas7666]

True that

[@Joyfulcreations144]

Ryan, I’m so happy you are back! Much love to you and your healing journey ❤ You are in my prayers 🙏🏼

[@sixtwentysix]

The transition of Neal's bad trip into the dad grass promo was flawless. 😆 46:00

[@thedarkenergist]

Damn Ryan, for a guy who just went through hell you’ve still got all your color and you look good. Really happy to see you’re back and looking good. All the best to you brother. 👍🏻

[@eggsrsweet]

Neal Brennan is such a great storyteller. Looking forward to this one.

[@patrickconlin2907]

So happy you are back Ryan. Your show has been helpful to me and so many people. Thanks for all the laughs, it truly helps. Best podcast around! Speedy recovery my friend.

[@dknapp100]

haven't even started the episode yet... I gotta tell you man, you & this unique platform mean a lot in my life. Its been a rough year & this podcast & your attitude in general have helped FOR REAL. I'm not a big merch guy, but I rock the Honeydew hoodie with pride. you & your guests & your fucking laugh make me check myself & change my mood. This matters. I hope to whatever higher power that you're ok & will be ok. My heart, & SO many others are with you, Ryan.

[@clevermissfox]

Love to you and your family Ryan Sickler. Thank you for being here week after week. I’ve missed a few weeks in a row , didn’t realize how many until I hear “I’ve graduated to a cane from a walker”. I hope you are feeling okay considering. I’ve had a medical issue since the end of August. Crazy how things have to change to make room for it. You’re a wonderful person and I hope you are healing quickly ❤️‍🔥

[@PAB1068]

So glad to have you back Ryan, but please take care of yourself. We'll still be here.

[@westonbfeatherin8741]

Sickle Cell looks so pleased to be doing what he loves after a hellacious time! It’s why I always choose the honeydew

[@agi5820]

We love you Ryan. This show has been a big help for me personally and I recommend it to so many of my friends. Glad you're doing well enough to continue the show for us. Hang in there man and keep fighting on; there is still so many more stories to tell.

[@Nathan-B.]

Sending good vibes to you Ryan! You bring a lot of joy to me and countless others. Much love!

[@BahnYahd]

I met Ryan when he came to Laugh Boston and I was a server. We got to chat about comedy and he gave me some pointers. Great dude

[@Mac-qi1po]

I'm glad to see you back my guy! The night pants family here was rooting for you! I love you all! Have a great day everyone.

[@dillonhuff9000]

You know man somedays I just don’t feel right and nothing seems to get me out of that cloud but Tuesday morning this podcast helps me so much to fight through it I can’t really explain how much Ryan and this podcast mean so much to me love you Ryan

[@KyleHerring]

That intro made me jump out of my skin. Your kindness gets me through the week. This podcast has helped in more ways than one. Prayer’s aplenty toward Sicklecell

[@greggd1]

I’m so glad you’re still with us. The world needs you ❤

[@Mmargo1017]

Prayers and love go out to you and your family Ryan. I’m so sorry for what you’ve been through. You are awesome!!! I appreciate you so much and look forward to this show and the patreon every week! Feel better soon. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻

[@danirilla]

Good to see you Ryan. Neal Brennan is my new favorite. So fun to listen to.

[@alsowinehouse]

Ryan, thank you for all the work you do. You're the best! Get well soon!

[@AirWindFire]

Glad to see you back, Sickler!

[@sugar_the_shaman3592]

So happy to see/hear you again!!!!!

[@mkmstillstackin]

Ryan, wishing you nothing but the best in your recovery. As you said, this was indeed a fantastic episode. Neal's recount of his journey was fascinating.

[@melissasalsbury4705]

God bless you. Love and prayers from the 1000 Islands, Ontario, Canada. Been here since the first slice of 'dew, man.

[@misun808]

Praying for you Ryan! So glad you’re getting better and keeping positive even though it can be difficult. Appreciate all the HoneyDew! 🫶🏻

[@laurinlatour4246]

We love you. Can't believe you're back at work for us already. Take care of yourself. Can't wait to hear all the details when you're ready.

[@taylorellmaker]

Lots of love for you Ryan! My heart is with you dude. Thanks for all your laughter bro.

[@benjaminhixson3918]

Sending love to you Ryan, hope you’re on the mend. You never fail to make me smile, even in my lowlights. Feel better ❤

[@taranguapo]

Love you Ryan! ✊🏼 Glad you're on the mend. I'll be praying for your recovery!

[@jeffersonnalley3239]

Ryan my brother! I'm so saddened to hear this occurred and it hit so close to home because I too had back surgery 5 years ago. I lived 17 years with back pain and decided to try and fix it. I had a disk with bone spurs poking into my sciatic nerve so they had to take the bone spurs out. I'm now at 100% and it worked out great. But you're the 2nd story I've seen in a week about things going sideways and man I feel so lucky. But i feel so horrible you have to go through this. I understand the pain and it's unbearable at times. Just know we're all here for you for any support you need. You bring us something we love and we all love you as well. I hope for a solid recovery for you my friend.

[@hkuzniak]

I knew this would be a good episode, but probably turned into one of my favorite episodes. Love the dew!

[@rebeccakrebs4832]

We love you Ryan and are all here to support you! Are you going to interview yourself for your honeydew?? 😆😆😆

[@danielgavin6442]

Welcome back Ryan, so excited you're back!!!

[@lesliethomas8117]

Been thinking of you since this all happened. Much love and continued healing for you, Ryan.

[@mvaderh]

Glad to see you Ryan! We love you buddy!

[@GabrielleCherryy]

Neil is such a good guest, i need this podcast to be at least 2 hours longer 🥲

[@kevinnaughton9597]

So good to see you back!

[@tex1622]

I hope you get fully recovered, mate. Lovely to see you back with the Brennan!

[@samanthab1923]

Hadn’t been watching in a while. Had no idea you were so ill. Will say a prayer 🙏🏻 Neal’s the perfect guest for you. Good friends with Dave too 😎

[@ec3812]

Ryan, I’m so glad you’re feeling better. Much love. 🙏🏼💜

[@boxthislap24]

Loved the whole thing, especially towards the end and the last question.

[@bryan_turner]

I'm so happy to see you back.

[@GettingNegative]

Such a good episode. I listened yesterday, watching today. Double up them streams Ryan!

[@buckeyegirl16]

Yaaay! So happy you're back!!! ❤

[@Nerdemocat]

One of my favorite episodes!

[@dot_t]

So glad to see you back! I've had DVT'S and PE'S so I know how scary it is and I know how much work it takes to fully recover. I wish you all the best on your journey back to health! What would we do without The Dew? Hang in there buddy! ❤️✨

[@Jenniferep1]

Sending much love and support. Love the show and keeping you in my thoughts and prayers!

[@seabassleak6797]

What a banger. Glad you're alright brother, keep up the amazing work. Thanks for this, I needed it today 🔥😎

[@sdm12342002]

Sending you well-wishes from your home state of Maryland, Ryan. And what an amazing and insightful episode (as usual). Thanks, Neal and Ryan!

[@kickflips]

Happy to see you pushing forward, Ryan. I know its hard for sure but one day and PT session at a time and you'll be back without worries next thing you know. Take it easy on yourself otherwise in the meantime. I don't pray but I'm sending positive energy your way.

[@tmcgee2906]

Love you, happy you're still kicking Jean

[@GK-qc5ry]

Glad to see you're back Ryan, they can't hold you down. Hope your physical and mental recovery is going well.

Glad you’re back and get well soon!

[@Freddy_v]

GOD I LOVE that Neil is outta his shell and podcasting these days. His brilliant mind and take on life is exactly what we need and don’t deserve. This is about to be amazing

[@dpclerks09]

Why do you think that people don't "deserve" it?

[@Freddy_v]

@@dpclerks09 most people don’t respect how strong you have to be to actually be vulnerable and take minds like this for granted. That’s why. We don’t deserve this. It’s a privilege to receive it.

[@dpclerks09]

@@Freddy_v I understand your point, but I disagree. People do deserve this. Parts of what he is sharing is much needed at this point in time, and humanity needs as many people to share that perspective as possible, for everyone's benefit. A rising tide lifts all ships.

[@Freddy_v]

I completely agree with your sentiment. I am simply saying it in a different way that I believe you are misunderstanding. The world does not owe us anything; it is the special few, such as the people who come to this place, that deserve it because they understand how unique and special this pod is. Deserving implies being entitled, which most don't deserve. It’s like saying dogs are so wonderful humans don’t deserve them because of how pure they are.

[@dot_t]

Great episode!!! Everything is working in your favor! ❤️✨

[@crucix1483]

Much love, Ryan. Glad you're doing better.

[@brockdustin730]

Glad to see you back Ryan!

[@vma862]

I've been enjoying neal Brennan so much! I didn't really know him or even watch his comedy but I'm loving his podcast. But when I saw he was here with Ryan I was so excited ❗️

[@wastedladytv]

Glad to see youre back & staying strong. We got ya man

[@cj5056]

Ryan hope you continue to heal ❤️‍🩹. Blood clots after surgery, scary for anyone. Big hug to you. What an amazing episode. Neal what a souls journey!

[@Craig_Ewan]

I'm a fairly new listener to your Podcast, just want to say I'm sorry to hear about your health struggles. I hope you can continue to heal and move forward from this. Much Love

[@joshbowes4279]

Oh my God Ryan I didn't know hopefully everything pulls off the ground as well as possible and you have a quick and none problematic recovery I saw you in Boston at last Boston this past year with my cousin and it was quite honestly one of the most meaningful interactions I've had with any person that I've met so far in life your show and your comedy means the world to me and it would be an absolute tragedy to lose either of those things so I wish you all the luck in the world and Godspeed recovering you literally have been one of the main reasons that I made it through the pandemic my mental health was not good and probably still isn't the best but your show and comedy have helped me through it so I'm hoping this message will reach you and help you through it getting to talk to you and interact with you and do a meet and greet was the world to me

[@cloudbloom]

Ryan we love you dude, I hope your recovery is going well now. Sometimes I find Neal hard to like, but then I tell myself to just stop and listen and every time my opinion changes because he's just as human as anyone. This was really interesting even after hearing his stories about DMT a few times before he was on here. Love y'all, thank you as always✌️

[@samanthab1923]

Know what you mean. When I first discovered him thru his IFC show The Approval Matrix 2011. Came off as a dick & definitely has a face for radio. But then I saw him on Seth & JRE, YMH & he was great. ⭐️

[@jamessayers1236]

Love you buddy happy to hear your laugh again

[@joshuawarne2902]

He is no longer depressed, because he found god in his heart and mind. Psychedelics allowed me to find the same thing in my life. It’s crazy what having a spiritual relationship with god can do to your mentality. Extremely difficult to accomplish and take so much work, but it’s so incredibly worth it.

[@johnbutler1778]

Sorry to hear you are unwell, stay up!

Great episode!

[@joshuacabrera3530]

The journey God leads you on to meet him is amazing to experience but even better to watch/hear someone else's journey

[@corriewright987]

So glad you made it through what seems like one heck of an ordeal. I can feel something different in this interview, you are always tuned in to your guest, but you seem extra present and raw here and it's awesome. Also, Neal likely did not intend to jock your whole style with BLOCKS....but he did. He should at least have you on and promote the hell out of your episode and show altogether.
