Sunday Dec 18, 2022
Sunday Dec 18, 2022
Twenty first episode of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's guest is host of the showrunner, producer, writer David H Steinberg.
Otherwise known as the C.A.D of Fabulon. C.A.D standing for Chief Administrator David, sometimes the D stands for Dummy, depending on who you ask. David has ensured to give citizens full voting rights sometime in the near future. Unfortunately it seems his scandal of being involved in a 7 month orgy at his beach house has paused that initiative. Thankfully, Fabulon's citizens were so impressed by the stamina and logistics of organizing such an orgy, that the C.A.D quickly took initiative and turned the scandal into an opportunity to launch a yearly February orgy spectacle for everyone. He describes it as our Oktoberfest.

Tyrants In Training Episode 20 -Doug McDonald as President of Shangi-La
Tuesday Dec 13, 2022
Tuesday Dec 13, 2022
Episode 20 of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's guest is host of the My Views Are My Own Podcast, Doug McDonald.
The locals call him Philospher King, Chosen One, Big Rá, J-Lo, many names really. A progressive island neighboring Australia and New Zealand. Doug was given this island to rule by a Jean Claude Van Damme looking alien. In return, Doug sends children that he suspects of being the anti-Christ to the alien's spaceship. He doesn't know why they want them, he doesn't ask. Another little perk to this is the aliens are able to target any enemies of President Doug. Unfortunately there are some mistakes, Cody, the incredibly popular and successful Twitch gamer, was sent up to the aliens, never to be seen again. But most children who are sent to the aliens are probably guilty.

The eighteenth episode in the history of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's guest is screenwriter David Stokes.
Someone with an unexplained and some say unhealthy obsession with thumbs, David crashed landed on the island at the age of nine, because he flew the plane, and was quickly airlifted into the top floor of the mansion he resides in. Afraid of mirrors which he believes will take his soul away, thumbs up spends most of his days on zoom declaring orders that nobody with no thumbs may join the island and zooming in his cameo to the remake to the only Star Wars movie: A New Hope. He assumes his people are carrying out his orders.
He has made a friend, Trevor, a friendly man with no thumbs on his hands but does have thumb like baby toes. He has been spotted swinging across the bridge between the city and thumbs up castle and Trevor has a room just under thumbs up. Some say they are in a loving relationship but thumbs up refuses to answer that.
Some quotes:
God is in the shape of a thumb.
We do have a commercial and the tickets are very very cheap but the reason is the fact they don't know who is flying the plane. So it might be a pilot with 30 years experience, it might be John, who has had his 7th birthday and he's just behind there, pressing buttons.
The chances of dying are astronomical and so people are kind of used to not leaving their homes.

Tyrants In Training Episode 17 -Judge Cindy Begel : The Naboo People Versus Cedric Gegel
Wednesday Jul 27, 2022
Wednesday Jul 27, 2022
Seventeenth episode of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's guest is actor, screenwriter, director, youtuber Cedric Gegel on trial for his tyrannical ways in episode 5. Today's second guest is the unimpeachable, . stupendous and fair judge, TV writer and producer Cindy Begel
The former M.C.P, the Most Celebrated Pomp of the Mediterranean island of Naboo, Cedric Gegel has been caught, put in a clown suit and brought into Cindy Begel's court. His crime? Abusing his power, spying on citizens who enjoy Shakespeare and maliciously destroying the mind of a beloved public servant. #Justice4Brian
Today's podcast is the trial. Cedric spinelessly defending himself and me, Kevin, heroically leading the prosecution team. Cedric will claim Brian is an "inept moron" who tried to start a war with Switzerland. Cedric will claim he knows nothing of a secret spying network the prosecution team randomly suggests might be real. Cedric will definitely be a much more polished speaker than Kevin BUT Judge Cindy immediately declares she doesn't trust actors. So the prosecution team might have a chance at winning this case!
Enjoy! #CedricGeJail

Wednesday Jul 06, 2022
Episode 15 is a little different since I've an injury that means it's hard to sit down and edit.
So this is a recording of my fiancee Celine Laing as Detective Celine Laing, hostage negotiator (wait does that mean she negotiates with hostages? She actually negotiates with the hostage takers!)
Det. Celine Laing is called in to rescue 100 hostages from an abandoned spam factory, her being specifically requested for by the hostage takers who are from her past.
Honestly this episode could be a mess. Let's hope not.
Thanks
