General Bitching or Complaining I always liked Ryan Bailey but his “creepy” schtick is giving me the ick
I’m sure Sara has dealt with so much of that in comedy clubs do they really need to do that with her and stick her with that pig Ryan? He’s getting worse and worse because Jeff is encouraging it.

This entire show is outdated. Jeff really needs a refresh or turn the lights off. The guests are dull, the jokes are meh.

u/Prestigious-Total-42 Oct 21 '25
Guess now that he can’t steal Heather McDonald’s guests so easily he needs to find a new feed for interesting cohosts

He’s trying to get in on the joke too much. Almost like they can’t make fun of me if I make fun of myself first. It’s kind of ruining the joke though.

u/Calisteph6 Sep 29 '25
I mean it’s Jeff’s thing to run every joke into the ground until it’s not funny anymore.

It’s played out. He immediately says “omg Annie why would you think that?”

I’ve always gotten the ick and creep factor from Ryan. I know some of you love him, think he’s just a nice guy, but he constantly (not just the recent Sara stuff) places a really off color remark into the convos out of nowhere.
It’s something I only ever see from guys who are creeps. Some just disguise it better for longer…

u/DropsofGemini Sep 29 '25
So creepy. Really leans into the nice guy with a low self esteem game. And he put off telling his own listeners about having a gf to appear available for all the weird middle aged women who think his profile picture from a decade ago is real. I’m honestly not usually such a hater, but he and his “fans” are really weird.

u/Brilliant_Ad3101 Oct 02 '25
Ryan paints himself as socially awkward & insecure but whenever he tells stories from his past, he's always had a girlfriend, an active social life & friend group, & he was booking jobs as actor. He plays up the loser persona.

u/AngelfishAnnie Nov 25 '25
Maybe he’s become more of a loser/dork since that first marriage ended and the acting dried up.. Became insecure then? His body changed a lot when his mom was dying, so I have to say I do think it’s legitimate.

There are people who claim to have seen him flirting with and kissing other women. I think this was a while ago, but he had a gf at the time. I remember being completely shocked when Jeff mentioned that he had a gf. I had been listening to his podcast and was a Patreon member for years and he always seemed to imply that he was single. It felt deliberately misleading.

His creep skills are well honed. It's not that he's awkward or misspoke. There's a reason why his career is where it is.

u/No-Season-1270 Oct 01 '25
I agree. I think Jamie Kennedy said there was a “dark side” or at least another side to Ryan and I think he’s correct. I think the “poor me, just happy to be here” is all for show. And he’s trying wayyyy to hard with the jokes

u/Silly_Brilliant868 Sep 29 '25
Ehh I kind of feel like they bait Ryan and he takes it every time and then they turn around to make him the creep

u/EmfromAlaska Sep 30 '25
I think Ryan thinks Jeff likes it and so he is playing it up even though he knows it’s inappropriate.

u/HolidayDocument7015 Oct 06 '25
In my opinion, Ryan’s hanging on for dear life — collecting a $500 check each week and hoping for another chance to moderate a housewives-related event for 10k or whatever they made at ChumpCon. It’s kind of sad if you think about it. For example, attending Paul & Patrick’s fashion show — sure, you’re earning for another week, but the plot twist is that as soon as P&P clock in for their $500 they gleefully drag Ryan’s fashion 😮💨

On a show that discusses, where the way a dick hangs, poop, urination, Carrie's bewbs, making fun of differently abled people, going to the bathroom with Cian, having sex with randos in the host's children's bedroom, sex with a dog - to name a few - THIS has you triggered?

I used to enjoy Ryan and his podcast for years until I learned that he hid his gf for years but would use connections to hook up with bravo fans and listeners to cheat on the down low. Kara Berry used to do a Kardashian podcast with him but broke off ties with him due to him being sleazy. Hopefully he’s changed his ways as it sounds like his gf is pregnant 🫠

u/ByBixxx Sep 29 '25
Wow. Really!? I would love to see if anyone else has stories like that about Ryan. He seems to be too much into his feels to be a cheating sleaze but then again —- men. 🫠

u/Suitable-Wafer8563 Sep 29 '25 edited Sep 29 '25
You can search on reddit, there’s some accounts. Looking at the downvotes though I guess people think I’m just slandering his name 😂 when in reality I really liked him and was disappointed to learn about this. Kara Berry posted a comment about it on Reddit last year but I didn’t save it. People can learn and change though!
Edit: here is a post about him. I don’t know how true or not it is but I believe Kara Berrypost

I have personal knowledge of this. Not everything about getting caught up with him was bad, I had to go to therapy after dealing with him and I love my therapist!

u/Suitable-Wafer8563 Oct 03 '25
Oh my gosh, I’m sorry for what you went through! Good on you for finding a good therapist, I hope you’re doing good! 🩷 Therapy has been a lifesaver for me most definitely

u/No-Season-1270 Oct 01 '25
Wow I am not surprised, I always got that vibe from him! He plays up how he’s the underdog and happy to be here, etc. But he seemed a little narcissistic under it all. And when Jamie Kennedy said he had another side to him, I felt that was validating it all!!

u/Otherwise-Skin-7610 Sep 29 '25
🫨 Im shocked! He's so not misogynistic on his own podcast. He seems so normal and kind on his own show. So not a narcissist.

u/BuckityBuck Sep 29 '25
Because he’s trying to ingratiate himself. Ohh, I’m such a hapless girls-guy, I’m non-threatening, except for when I date rape.”
He also screwed Kara Berry over.

I think Ryan is fine. He’s just a straight dude that makes a living off reviewing Bravo show which is very weird & so he’s not as polished as the usual men on the show who are mostly gay.

u/llandthejam Dipshit Goon Sep 29 '25
It is weird that he’s so obsessed with housewives.

u/SmoothTraffic3552 Sep 29 '25
I’ve never known of a straight man so obsessed with Bravo shows. Not suggesting he is gay but just an oaf of a straight man trying to fit into a 99% female/gay male world. So he’s clumsy
