Pilot (Part I)

Pilot Episode of Whiskey & Ry.

Over the past 3 years, Ryan Charles Brown, has given over 5,000 Uber rides around the city of Los Angeles. In this time, he has shared his “coming of age” story with people from all around the world, while also hearing stories from their upbringing as they travel towards a final destination. Some of the items discussed were: rites of passage into “manhood”, what it might mean to “be a man” today and in the future, and how can men participate in dismantling toxic masculinity? Then one night, while sipping some whiskey at a bar with a friend, Whiskey & Ry was born.

After the end of The Mission Podcast, Ryan was seeking a new conversation that would cross multiple boundaries and build bridges into areas of conversation that have been “cut off” by the traditional interpretation of masculinity and what it means to be a man today. Whiskey & Ry provides a pathway into honest, vulnerable and courageous dialogue about topics that will both interest and challenge listeners to think deeper into ways in which men can be a part of the movement to dismantle toxic masculinity.
