Welcome back to Hot Takes and Deep Dives. This is Jess and I am on with Ryan Bailey.

Hello.

Hello. And you're the host of the podcast so bad it's good with Ryan Bailey.

Brilliant title by the way.

Thank you.

You are the token straight guy among the Bravo podcast community.

You know, you have a lot of women, you know, lesbian, gay, like it's just all this great,

like these amazing people, but you don't see a lot of white straight men

in this.

And sometimes I feel like an interloper maybe, like, you know, it's like I kind of sometimes come

into this feeling like, oh my God, I hope they don't think I I hope they

let me in their club you know what I'm saying like I know that sounds really

silly but it's one of those things where you're like I really really really

really love these things I don't know why can I can I sit at your

guys table I don't want to overtake anything I don't I just want to be a part of

it like just let me like that was like my thing as a kid like I just want to be

invited like I don't need to be the head of anything can I can I just be a part of this you know

Here's why I'm drawn to you your show is different it is like a radio show and it reminds me of the Howard Stern show.

That's you you you nailed it actually because that's so you guys that don't know like I do this

really really long podcast way too long I know that goes against every kind of podcast like you know nobody recommends doing a four hour podcast it goes against everything that I've been told but what I what I think about it is in terms of like Howard Stern I grew up on those four hour everyday radio shows and I what fascinated me about Howard Stern was how he interpreted his own life, how he talked to guests, how he

made a reality show based around all of the staff members.

And that's why on my podcast, my parents are always a part of it.
