I discovered Ryan Leone right before he passed away, and I was so shocked to see him on your channel, Mark. Thank you for having him on. His KZbin channel is incredible. I had started bingeing on his videos and then he passed away. Oh my heart. He’s so relatable, and even though some people don’t have sympathy for drug addicts, and that’s understandable. But, damn. I don’t have sympathy for a lot of people, but Ryan is certainly not one of them. A kind man, despite the things he did when he was a “junkie” (his words). He was an only child, loved by his parents, who remind me of mine, loved by his beautiful wife, Karina, and loved by his two sweet children. RIP, Ryan 🙏🏻

Found Ryan originally from an interview he did on lockdown 23 and 1. That led me to finding Ryan’s channel. Watched a couple videos and was laughing, shocked, mad, sad, back to laughing. I then had no choice but to scroll all the way to the very beginning. That’s when my path down the rabbit hole of the Ryan Leone saga began and i was hooked. You are now free from all the demons you fought for years. Rest easy bro.

Children. They save so many of us by giving us purpose. Just like Ryan, my son saved me from addiction and certain death. As soon as I found out I was carrying a baby, I fought hard for my sobriety and to get clean. I was homeless and drug addicted with mental health issues at the time. I got myself straight, raised my son together with his father (30 yrs together) and my two other children and went on to earn my BA in behavioral science. Children. The Best 💖

I started doing drugs since my teenage, got addicted to Crack, spent my whole life fighting Crack addiction. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder, got diagnosed with cptsd, not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment changed my life for better. I can proudly say i'm totally clean for 6 years and still counting. Always look to nature for solution to tough problems, Shrooms are phenomenal.

This interview by far has been the most interesting I have watched & heard. Ryan explains his chaotic life so well that I'm envisioning his life as he's telling it almost as if I'm watching a movie. This man has been through it and thankfully he's here to tell about it. I would love for you to meet back up with Ryan in the future and do an update on how he's doing. 💯 Ryan if by chance you read this, I want to thank you for sharing all you did. I'm glad that you pointed out that you were raised in a working class, stable and drug free family. A lot of people assume that addicts like myself come from a broken home, raised on welfare, dealt with abuse and had "junkies" for parents. Not true whatsoever. EVERYONE'S childhood & family life are different. Some people come from wealthy families and want for absolutely nothing while others come from families were they survived off groceries from food banks and church's and could only afford to shop at thrift stores. Hell, a lot of people can't shop at all and wear hand me downs and things that are donated. Point of all this being said.... ADDICTION DOESN'T DISCRIMINATE. Ryan your an inspiration and keep on keeping on! You are proof that recovery is REAL & very possible. I send positive vibes, happiness, love, success, health and wealth your way...

This is thee best interview that you've ever conducted!!! Hands down!! I'm a ex-addict myself and listening to he's story I'm saying to myself "ya,ya,exactly" everything he said was right on point of a person mindset during addiction 💯 👌. I'm now clean and have been for 3 years,and listening to he's interview bought me back to my old days. And in AA there's a saying " remember when " which is my favorite because it helps me remember what I've went through and how I never want to go back,and as to he's story did the same. So thank you to both of you for conducting and sharing. As a ex-addict I never want to forget,and I really hope others took something from this share as I did... Life of a addiction. Hopefully people think twice before going down the long dark road. A good percentage of us don't make it out,that's why it's important that the ones who do share there experience and hopefully save another. Best interview ever!!! Thanks to both of you,you guys help me stay sober today.

With lots of money, comes lots of drugs and as great as santa Barbara is, we couldn't escape the underbelly of the beautiful town. Many have lost thier battle with addiction, we just lost Ryan. You are finally at peace brother 🙏. My deepest and most sincere condolences go out to your family. 😢

I wonder if there's anything this guy has ever done for him to take accountability for any of his life choices . 1st the Parents put his on drugs. 2nd, he shoots up for the 1st time by force. He goes to jail for Pimping but he wasn't a Pimp, he was just helping a friend. He's the perfect example of why , whenever I meet FAST TALKERS , I use more caution 🥴

I grew up in Santa Barbara at the same time as Ryan. As unique as his story may seem, I've met many people with similar life stories. Some are dead now. Some burned out and are just living off of their parents' passive property generated income doing nothing. Some are like Ryan, still immersed in delusions of grandeur. They think they're going to be the next Spielberg, or Musk, or Hemingway. Santa Barbara just inculcates narcissism and an inability to feel satiation.

Everyone loves to say how impressive or articulate this guy is, but from the first minute all I hear is a selfish, arrogant, conceited, priveliged kid who can never see himself doing any wrong. It's great that he glorifies his behavior so some impressionable young person can follow in his footsteps.

I think most upper middle-class American homes tend to be breeding grounds for narcissism and dissatisfaction, particularly for our generation (I'm a millennial). Our parents seem to have a lot more than we can obtain, and the pathways they had to succeed don't exist for us due to global changes. That's no excuse, of course, but it's a partial explanation for why so many still live at home, misuse opioids, feel demotivated, etc

One can also have a combination of levels/symptoms as well. Not everyone with ADHD has trouble staying on task and/or concentrating.

How do you know it's real? It sounds like a lie. This must be one of the most outlining behaviours you could find. I've been a heroin addict for 20 years. I've never heard a story like this. It's a movie story. This guy started telling this story when he was young and this seemed like a crazy yet believable story. And he just kept on telling it till it became a part of his story. He didn't know how to shoot up because KZbin wasn't a thing? Yeah so did every heroin addict before 2014. His dealers couldn't keep up with him? This could be true but I would happily bet my money that it isn't. They lady crying a single tear..... Them saying they were D.E.A.D.... Dude has seen too many movies. Michael Jacksons attorney? Deals with the feds? He was only operating within one state. I can't type as fast as this dude lies.
