#188 - Ryan Garner

In this episode of The 10 Ninety Podcast, Mason sits down with Ryan Garner. This episode is dedicated to his and Denise's first pup, Albus. Ryan and Denise had to say goodbye to Albus in October of 2025. Ryan helps Mason with production, social media, and the odds and ends of The 10 Ninety Foundation. He spends hours editing episodes about grief, loss, and survival. He talks about what it's like to witness those stories, and how it's quietly changed the way he sees people, the world, and himself. He opens up about losing his dog Albus, who battled lymphangiectasia for years, and the grief that followed — including how little space the world tends to make for that kind of loss. It's an honest conversation about what it means to sit with other people's pain, learn from it, and still figure out how to show up for your own.
