Due to popular demand I am bringing back the series 'Worst Firsts' as a podcast!
Best-selling author, artist and activist Ryan Leone walks Brittany through his harrowing experiences being a young addict, going through the prison system, and how he was able to get clean and become the great success he is today. Ryan details how getting a high-profile job at Spike TV didn't deter him from his $600-a-day crack addiction, how some difficult relationships and his habit led him to being in prison for 5 years, and how he ultimately got control of his life, sobered up and is now a successful author and activist fighting for prison reform.

Thanks for having me on! Had such a good time!!
Ryan Leone thank you for sharing your story. I think you went to the same institution that Kat Von D and Paris Hilton went to for “troubled teens” in Utah.
"Ryan, you are such a drug addict!!" and you have well earned my 10 cents a day✌🏻 Palabra homie 🤙🏻
Hope it all just keeps getting better bro
Yes great podcast Ryan. Keep up the good work on your channel as well!!!
Palabra fool!!👍🏼
My first time shooting heroin was the day I fell in love with it. Didn't stop for years and years. Haven't put a needle in my arm in over 7 years.
I am going to listen to Ryan’s videos for the rest of my life no now that he’s passed away. This is where I first met Ryan and I looked at his CZcams page listen to a couple videos and then instantly loved his personality. Very funny dude and the shit that he’s gone through in life and the brakes that he’s gotten in life just all such a great story
White privilege.
Heroin is a warm snuggly hug.
Without heroin is a hard slap into a bad dream. Comfort is gone & reality is cold.
GREAT INTERVIEW AS ALWAYS! Ryan has a fantastic YT site and Patreon and never let's subscribers down...thanks so much for having him on!!
Palabra
And he's hot and tan.. Palabra!!
Really your comment didn't age too well.
I like Ryan but you saying that he never lets his subscribers down is totally false. He slacked on Patreon many many times. Rest in peace brother from another mother
RIP Ryan. he had many fantastic qualities but reliability wasn't one of them.
This is the quietest I’ve seen Brit on a interview. This is such an interesting story,! Great podcast!
It's the calmest I've ever seen Ryan😂😂😂
@Florida Man eewew
Ryan is a really good guy...I'm one of the assoc. producers of his documentary. Be on the lookout for it later this year. It's going to be a crazy one but with a great message...
Palabra!
Ryan is gonna be a superstar ive said it since the first day I found him at 212 subs
Yo Yo
What’s up bro
@@rickdavis9352 what up Ricky!!!!
@Ste Vuh That Guy is so lame
I’m an addict myself and listening to him and his struggles really touched me. I’m pregnant myself so congrats to you and your girl! You got this and are doing huge things! If there’s anyway I can help support this narcan movement I definitely want to because it saved my moms life! ❤️
You doing good yourself
@@chrisross8372 Yea I’m doing very good myself, my kids keep me going everyday making me stronger!
@@chelsearoberson781 that's good my son saved me,what was your poison if you dont mind me asking
Ryan is the homie. Been following him since he had 212 subs
Yeah I joined right after you around 500 I think.
Brittany. Thank you. Keep this going. You're finding your purpose. You're connecting with an audience. And you're helping people.
Truly one of your best Ryan and I follow everything you do also one of the best worst first I’ve ever seen and I thought of that as well great job both you guys hopefully you guys do another one
The last 7 minutes were really touching, when he finished talking and Brittney started to tell him how well he is doing now. Everything we've heard from him had to be deeply traumatic for him and I really felt how healing it was to hear such a kind feedback. I had to watch that again, and then I noticed that in the same moment (I think last 7 minutes) Neena appeared and licked his elbow
This was great! Ryan is awesome, so intriguing, such a brilliant story teller. It’s such a shame things needed to be sped up (understandable with the time restrictions) please have Ryan back for a part 2. Need more. Great pod, Brittany! One of your best for sure. Keep bringing interesting people like this!! Had never heard of Ryan prior to this, now you know I need his book ASAP.
Sub to his channel . Trust me, his stories are amazing!!!! This podcast didn’t even scratch the surface
This ain’t even an a quarter of the crazy stuff. Ryan needs a solid 15 episodes at very minimum and you’ll be addicted. The best story teller. Too bad be had to rush here. Check out his CZcams.
His patreon is even crazier and way more in depth than even his youtube is. That's where you here the really crazy stuff. I'm one of his assoc. producers for his documentary called "Idiot Savant: The Savage Life of Ryan Leone" It's in post production right now getting edited to get ready for release probably on netflix later this year....
Yeah, all those made up stories. That change every time he tells them. And did you know, he spent his prison time in PC for not paying his dope debts? He's a clown. Full of shit. Grade A con man
Just found the channel ..great podcast..looking fwrd to catching up..Keep up the great job 👊😎✌
good job Ryan. I look forward to the day where you are directly helping others in a counseling context or as an interventionist or something for fun and for free (you may already be but none of us would know). You have enough experience and talent to fuel the space-ship until the end. The key is surviving yourself. You can. You're more than what you went through. I see a sweet person who desperately wants connection. Stay alive man. We need you here.
Ryan is the best, as a recovered addict and someone's who's family and my fiance have spent alot of time in prison, I love hearing his journey. Its extremely relatable. So happy you had him on!!
Fascinating stories! Thanks for sharing!
Ryan being the Dude. well done guys great hour of my life that i really enjoyed even though ive heard Ryans story before.
This is like 5 percent if his whole story. Dude is a real one.
Palabra
I have to say this is going into my top favorite videos from Worst First. A lot addict content on youtube, instagram, tiktok, etc is always hyping up the sober person who've been doing it for years and years (which is GREAT), but it's interesting to hear from someone that is really pushing hard every single day to live a normal happy life without drugs. It's so damn hard when you have a lot of guilt, shame, regret, resentment, and self hate to stay sober, but it's inspiring to see Ryan where he is in this moment. Sobriety is never a straight path, but a crooked road that you can't make excuses for falling off. Thank you Ryan for sharing the cliff notes of your story (btw hey it's not over yet) and advocating for prison reform, which is so important! Your story is valid to those that have walked a similar path and I hope you can see what everyone else sees in you.
Ahhh the Goosebumps thing is what you signed autographs for everyone for... Haha this kid came into class after school and left everybody an autograph in their cubby. XD
I’m living for Brittany’s podcasts. The absolute best (even though it’s worst...see what I did there) 😁this was another great episode, very sobering and I think it will help a lot of people. The Narcan idea is great and I hope it gets rolled out. Can’t wait for another episode. Thanks Brittany. You’re a kind sweet lady and you deserve all the success 🖤
Coming from Ryan’s channel and I’m so excited to see this!!🖤🙌
what the host spoke about toward the end of the episode came from a personally deep place and was moving to hear. thank you.
Great interview! I've been sober for over a year. I got sober for my mental health. I agree, doing acts of kindness for others helps me maintain my sobriety.
Good on you it's always with us,getting off it is the easy bit ,then you've to deal with anxieties that come with it and cut all ties with most people you know,in my case anyway
A highly intelligent , handsome man taken way before his time, I loved Ryan like a brother and will miss him dearly.
Heroin is evil 😞💔
Coming from someone who’s been through some of these things, it’s very interesting to hear someone talk about it like this.
See mine was reversed I was abused as a child . Both my parents were addicts , I too had ADHD and I was sent to a boys school because they didn't know what to do with me, and they too were putting stuff in my food as a child. As I got older into High School my dad gave me marijuana then after that it was alcohol and then I was doing ecstasy in high school , then cocaine and then I graduated high school got kicked out of my house went to my mom's house which I did not have a really good relationship with her and barely knew her. So she got me hooked on meth then she told me a few months down the road that she couldn't feed my addiction and hers so I ended up on the streets in downtown Portland, went through some shit my dad found me, I got sober then 4 months down the road or 6 months down the road my dad ended up dying from full-blown stage 4 liver cancer . I got on drugs again off and on through the years and now I have not touched a single thing in 12 years .Now I have a wife two beautiful preteen daughters and life is awesome sorry for the long story.
Look into this guy!!! His story is absolutely amazing!!
Awesome Brittany!! Had to subscribe to ya! Cheers. I’m a musician and Addicted for the last 18 years on and off! More so on! I have decided that it’s time. Being 58 and at my end. That if I don’t stop., My life will. Listening to your Podcast has helped me seriously want me to make this happen! Keep you posted and thanks for Sharing. It helped me make this decision. Listening to Ryan! And knowing that I am making the right Choice. Thanks Brittney for sharing this story. Robert
Great interview!
Your going to be great at this podcasting !! good job
What a great podcast! I enjoyed..
This episode is like when you read the little summary on the back of a book. So much more crazy shit ryan experienced sheesh. Like dipping your toes into the pool. 📚📖
Congrats Bro!!! 👍🏾✌🏾✅
God bless you Ryan! I truly pray that you allow zero things to get in your way of achieving all of the accolades you deserve!! Take nothing less than the absolute best for you and your family!! Don’t let anyone hold you hostage to a past you are working so hard to overcome ❤️
Dope interview Brittany !
Solid ass dude! Much love brother
Please have him on again! His story is fascinating!!
I love a good comeback story. This is possibly one of the most powerful testimonies you've had on your show of just how God can move mountains for us and bring us out of the valley, even if this wasn't the initial message intended. I'm so inspired by his tenacity to overcome and the progress he has made in just a few years. All the best for his continued success.
Yeah, hes onit,we all have it in us if need be,power within,drugs are for mugs,just day no
FFW 7 months and hes on drugs again lol
Man this was good. I was stuck and didnt get off the couch during this one. And i have debilitating adhd imagine that? Lol good stuff ryan. She earned my sub

Really good show.
Hell yeah Ryan is the fucking man! Congratulations on the interview brother
That is insane and a beautiful story
Fav podcast ever
Great 👍 show
"where do you get the drugs from?" LOL
So glad I clicked on this. Thank you
I love this Podcast and appreciate the stories to help people. Could also use some humor to uplift during these trying times. This has become depressing.
Ryan Leone is the man !!! I’ve been watching his CZcams channel since he started and I subscribe to his Patreon. I do a lot of driving to work and back everyday and it keeps me going . I can relate to his old life , been there too . Anyways subscribe to his Patreon and CZcams channel , he’s awesome!!
He looked so good here. This was taped right before his major relapse , that eventually led to his downfall. Rip Ryan
Wow cool, finally someone's house that you can smoke in!
Palabra!!!!!
This doesn’t even touch the surface!!!! Trust me subscribe to Ryan’s CZcams channel, his stories and life is so interesting and amazing
My baby sister just died from this in September. She was 33. Addiction destroys families I’m so sad. Love their interview
I’ve been on and off that ride for awhile. I’ll be 33 in June. I’m on methadone so my life the last 3 years has been a lot more stable. Trying to put it all behind me. I’m so sorry about your sister. Just know she’s not suffering anymore. The disease of addiction is awful.

R.I.P brother. Damn man.
Such a great episode 💚
RYAN IS THE MAN!!!!
Hearing Ryan tell in his other podcasts how he stayed up the entire night before this podcast doing coke makes it funnier to watch. He was a great storyteller tho. I miss his channel a lot. RIP
Wow I literally didn’t even see the clear glass sheet between you two until 1/2 way thru the pod.
Shitting myself hearing him say Worcester MA! This was nothing shy of respectable
RIP Paul. Palabra!!
I'm at a methadone clinic right now I got cut off from my pain doctor didn't want to go through a horrible withdrawal so I kind of had no choice but to go to the methadone clinic pretty sorry. And then my mom dies 3 days ago. 2021 hasn't started off that well for me. I have nothing......!
I'm so sorry to hear that bro. I'm on the clinic too, and struggling. Thoughts and prayers to u man.
Na man you have everything your alive , now do something with it
Hows it going now?
This is the quietest I ever seen Brit 😂
Rip Ryan 🙏
Great interview. I really enjoyed it. Just one thing, I don't know what was happening with the volumen of his microphone or it was himself.But sometimes he either spoke too close to the microphone or he spoke too low or away from the mic.
Watching the video it’s because he’s keeping the mic still and turning his head towards Brittany away from the mic whilst he’s talking
ITS NOT THAT........Ryan just tends to....morph into some kind of gay call center representative ..And use a GAY AND SOFT SPOKEN vocal fry affect..
when hes selling himself as a best selling author and not .... drug addicted ... wood.
Ole shaky Jake (a RYAN LEONE ALIAS) always gets a little gay whenever he either
A. smokes a cigarette or
B. Is trying to sound deep and philosophical on a PODCAST
Great transition by her to not go into the glamorization of selling drugs. She's going to get better and better.
💗💗💗
*GANG GANG*
GANG GANG GANG............GANGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would suggest instead of trying to make that hour. Let it flow and put it out in segments. Keep it up Brittany..
🔥🔥🔥🔥
His Barber got him high on cocaine the night before this, he was up all night , still high and tweeking .Sober Ryan moves around and rocks back n forth. He’s been MIA from him paying patreon fans. We miss you Ryan
I think the opposite. He seems pretty clean here but when he’s rocking he seems high.
@@HandbagDiva he's Dead

RIP Ryan Leone 🙏 🪽 ✝️
PLEASE USE MIC STANDS!! This is a message to all podcasters!! So many great interviews with guests are being ruined because of them not speaking into the mic properly. Use a stand! Put the mic right in front of where their voice is projecting so it picks up everything loud and clear. Especially when speaking to someone who speaks kinda quiet. Please please please.
REST IN PARADISE RYAN!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Oh my goodness, you are so pretty! You remind me of my little sister Brittany!!!
His Chanel is Awesome. Check it out. His story’s are addicting themselves.
Beautiful eyes
Palabra!!
So much more to Ryan’s life story, check out hit CZcams channel. Ryan is an amazing storyteller..

RIP Leone
oooooofff...I like the guy but, damn...alot of his story is hard to believe. maybe its just me. I grew up around pathological liars and I haven't looked into the dude AT ALL, but....its something. He has some of the traits imo. and again...its MY OPINION.
There's something... off about him.
You should see his channel and all the empty promises he feeds his Patreon.
Rip
I wonder how many people in santa barbara relied on you to get well in the morning. Stay thought considering about 80k people live there.
Especially with all your bagels ready made. And a run to LA at least once a week.
Good to see Brittany wearing her pj bees.
The sex bit about having your first few digs is well out of trainspotting.
Sickbay, blabbing on about Sean cannery as James bond. He gives the girl a dunt and its"that better than any meat injection..."
If there is a americanIrvine Welsh it's got to be cormac Murphy. The film, which I think is similar in the downfall of drug abuse is requiem for a dream. The sound track awesome as well. X factor in the UK nicked it.
Brittany pleeeease comebback!!!
You are way better than all these gay flamboyant comity type queers that try to make a podcast talking to other queers. Your channel was blowing up and I loved it and you should’ve stayed with it because you would’ve been awesome next to Steve Ellis wild rides podcast.
So sad he’s gone now
She said “guards??”
Check out Ryan's channel. He goes in depth on a lot of the stories you've heard on this video.
