Life with the Ryans: The Lost Episode • Derek Whitacre (unairable) LNP583 👏❤️😂

September 5, 2024 - LNP News Alert **** (17:00 hours) For the very first time, an "unairable" episode is released from the vault. Thanks to the willing and completely un-coerced consent of THE Derek Whitacre... Life with the Ryans #50 sees the light of day. Recorded on April 26, 2018 this episode should be a case study on human psychology. Derek is a friend and was one of our first guests. It went well-enough where he came back for our 50th episode. He had also recently experienced a health scare which we planned to discuss for the first time here. It all seemed so simple... Everything starts fine. Positive energy from everyone. Until... something goes off the rails. One person holds onto something from weeks ago, it eventually comes out on the show... and we spend the rest of the time going in circles discussing relationship advice and what makes a good podcast, all while trying to decide who's at fault. Spoiler alert, there are no innocent parties... EVERYONE is to blame. It's difficult for me to watch on my own but when we reluctantly screened it as a group after Nicole passed away (15-20 of us... #notawake) we were all crying laughing. No matter how many times you'll think we MUST have gotten to the crux of the situation, you'll be surprised til the end. As hilarious as it is to see all our imperfections on display, I'm taken with how vibrant and vivacious Nicole was back in 2018, even while discussing how upset she was about her decline. In fact, this may be the missing link to what the hell happened here! This one's for you, Babe. I love you, Derek loves you and your entire community loves you. Forever. I love you at home. Please love one another. Thanks for watching. Enjoy... J
