Ryan is hands down the best interviewer in the pod game today. I've seen almost all of Shane's appearances on pods over the last several weeks, and this is the best one. Ryan asks great questions and goes so much deeper than anyone else. Shane has a great career ahead of him. So so funny.

[@robertfrost8264]

I think most people left the SNL stuff alone because they figured he's constantly, only, asked about that. But it makes sense on this show.

[@mattcarter64]

Well said ! It was nice to see Shane talk about it in a long form and Ryan just knows how to get folks to slow down and talk.

[@edwardtrinidad8279]

Yeah cause that’s what his pod is about.

[@DanielDanger420]

He's an incredible listener. And he leads up to some great questions, too. Doesn't cut his guests off. Just listens, agrees, laughs. Boy, does he laugh! But you're correct! He's an amazing interviewer. He would be cool to just hang out with.

[@osloconfidental1807]

Yessir! I love Ryan, and all of shane's pod cast apperances have been hilarious. But this one was amazing 🔥🔥

[@aaronallen7777]

You would think that I would get burned out on seeing Shane on all of my favorite podcasts... But it just keeps getting better.

[@JJ-Toreddie]

[@oliverlang1006]

Agreed! Did you see him on Flagrant 2? Lol he sucked but it was still awesome cause they just roasted him about being burnt out. And his Michael from Love on the Spectrum impressions kill me from laughter

[@pauljoseph8338]

Best interview of Shane’s origin story. He has always glossed over it, but Sickler really makes Shane tell the details.

[@triplem22x89]

Getting fired from SNL was THE best thing for Shane. Made him a house hold name, and his gift of comedy didn't just disappear because of it... Also, side note, this episode and Shane talking about his failures making me laugh SO hard. One of the best guests.

[@dash-x]

His story is incredible. Even if his comedy isn’t for me, I enjoy him as a human and his perspective. Probably because he’s around my age and reminds me of my brothers and friends. The fact he was able to hold it down, weather this strange road and come out the other side mostly in tact says a lot about him and his support system. There really wasn’t any sort of path of redemption for what he experienced as it was very bizarre set of circumstances .

[@killerskillet]

Shane's standup on KZbin is so, so good. Best special I've seen in probably 10 years... and it's FREE!

[@phoenixcarlton412]

Ryan is an amazing interviewer, if he wasn’t so funny, he would be a brilliant journalist. He keeps his guests so calm and open for topics of conversation.

[@DubcityTX]

The questions he asks are also well formed. Which seems crazy since its on the fly. He's got talent in interviewing.

[@thearsdfa]

That’s true. One of these podcast interviewers. Also my guy is handsome af.

[@ImmaTigerBro]

Ryan is the goat man, all the other podcasts I watched Shane on he didn't really open up much and he kept shit very casual. Ryan's way of making the guests feel comfortable and allowing them to speak without stepping on their points is really awesome.

[@briansavage932]

After he did his Los Angeles podcast rounds I looked up his podcast and now I'm hooked. Matt and Shane's Secret Podcast is hilarious.

I discovered the podcast recently too and burnt through so many episodes. Matt and Shane are so funny together. There's lots of shows where even if there are multiple people on it it's usually one guy who is really funny and the others are occasionally funny but with Matt and Shane they're both hilarious in different ways

[@gingerleamcwow435]

Rewatching this in 2024 and its still just as entertaining as the first time. Shane is by far one of the most likeable and relatable guys in comedy now. He may not sell out arenas or travel with 14 semi trucks and I hope that never changes! You dont need all that production overkill when you've got pure talent.

You dolts. You're obviously non fans of stand up. "Theaters" meaning selling out classic music theaters where seats cost between $400-$40. Not movie theaters.. going from open mics, to rooms to theaters is the trajectory for comics. Usually it takes 15 years for them to get through paying those dues.

[@thtswhtshesai6d9]

This is the podcast that got me really into Shane Gillis. Him and Mark Normand are the two current comedians that I feel are genuinely the most naturally funny people out there right now. Shane in particular has some characteristic that I can’t really put into words-almost like you have known him your whole life. There’s a level of sincerity with him that people have been desperately needing the last 6 or so years.
