  • Great podcast

    Ryan is great at piercing and teaching. I love how thorough he is with his explanations. I love his Patreon also. Definitely with a listen. I started listening about 6 months ago and I’ve gone back through all the past shows as well. Ryan seems like a great guy and I’m so appreciative to have the opportunity to learn from him. I’ve gotten great information and very useful tips.

  • Great to get and stay in touch

    For a self thought professional piercer in Germany it feels difficult to know about the things and thoughts happening in the scene. So Ryan as a good host for the interviews with a good choice of interesting people. Thank you for giving me those many opportunities- I am thankful for you putting in so much effort!
