The Shawn Ryan Show

Shawn, a former police officer and CIA contractor, draws listeners craving authenticity and fringe ideas, delivering raw conversations that run 90 minutes on average. One episode on conspiracy theories accumulated 280,000 streams in week one, outpacing The Secret World of Roald Dahl’s weekly growth by 8%. This gritty approach carves a reliable audience, though its polarizing topics limit crossover appeal.
