* Trigger warning: Ryan and I pretty much only talk about skateboarding in this episode. This might make you stoked...or annoyed. Sorry.
Also, Ryan advocates for the Ben Raemers Foundation which is a suicide prevention initiative, so we do discuss themes linked to this in the last 10 minutes.*

Guest bio
"Ryan is like the Wollongong Roger Bagley...full skate nerd".
- Marty Girotto
Ryan is a past guest on the show, dating all the way back to episode #74. In that episode, Ryan openly discusses his mental health challenges, his skate photography career, life, love, and much more. This week, Ryan is with me live and in person on my back deck to check in since he was last on the show, review all of the exciting stuff that has been happening in the skateboarding world and for those of you that are unaware, Ryan is the man behind the lens for many of the THT guest portrait photos, filming and editing of the feature episodes that can be found on the THT Youtube channel. Ryan is loved by many, and the reason is simple...he's a really nice guy.  I'm so grateful for his friendship.

You'll find a particular kind of honesty in the conversations on Terrible. Happy, a podcast that sounds like a late-night chat in a backyard after a long day at the skatepark. Host Shan sits down with a rotating cast of characters from the Australian skateboarding scene and beyond, but the talk rarely stays on just tricks and terrain. It naturally veers into the messy, funny, and deeply human stuff that happens off the board: the struggles with fitness, the odd jobs that pay the bills, the mental health ups and downs, and the pure, alternative comedy of everyday life. This isn't a polished production; it's the raw audio of community, capturing the specific voices and stories that make this culture tick. Listeners will hear genuine interviews that feel more like catching up with an old mate, punctuated by the occasional chaos of THT Radio segments. It’s about finding the connection and the laughter in the grind, whether that's on four wheels or just trying to get through the week. The result is a uniquely Australian show that’s less about sports commentary and more about the shared, sometimes terrible, often happy reality of the people within it.
