Tyrant In Training Episode 27 Mary Flanigan, Emporess Mary the Great of Flanitania
Wednesday Mar 22, 2023
Wednesday Mar 22, 2023
Episode twenty seven of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's episode is with Belfast comedian Mary Flanigan.
Also known as the Emporess Mary the Great of Flanitania. Flanitania was once the floating great pacific garbage patch. Mary took it and made it into a non-smelling seagull hating paradise.
Don't cry on her or near her. Don't interrupt her. Don't correct her. Don't be a seagull or have any pro-seagull views. After that you should be fine.

Tyrant In Training Episode 26 Kate Barron, the Beautiful Baroness of Bella Island
Wednesday Mar 15, 2023
Wednesday Mar 15, 2023
Episode twenty six of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's episode is with Canadian comedian in London, Kate Barron. Kates debut solo show Losing Myself is at Soho Theatre in London on 12th and 13th of April.
Also known as the Beautiful Baroness of Bella Island. I think I'll leave this description to just one out of context quote
"I would use psychological warfare to destroy them so they hated themselves so much, that when their child was born that looked like them, they would hate their child but they wouldn't know why".
Kate is bringing some real tyrannical energy that's been missing from this podcast.

Wednesday Mar 08, 2023
Wednesday Mar 08, 2023
Episode twenty five of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's episode is with comedian and fellow podcaster who hosts Sis and Tell, Amanda Marks.
Tiny animals, tiny food portions and tiny amount of Amanda's allowed on the island. Amanda is the first guest to time travel into the future to set up her island.
Of course she brought Harrison Ford with her, whose duty seems to be to remove any other people calling themselves Amanda and removing those who don't find a very hilarious mooning video funny.

Tyrant In Training Episode 24 BONUS EPISODE - Parents are Tyrants
Sunday Mar 05, 2023
Sunday Mar 05, 2023
Episode twenty four the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's bonus episode hosts my parents, Patrick Joseph and Hannah Ryan.
These two tyrannical dictators were not able to agree to sharing power so they both got run of their own island. This bonus episode gives them their own time to rule as they like. Lady Hannah taking over the Meditteranean island of Maryland and Mr. Ryan ruling Corrib Island off the west coast of Ireland.
Both countries are clearly in deep financial ruin and unfortunately it seems to be left to their heirs, one of their brilliant sons, to try and salvage something from each country.
Enjoy. Thanks care-givers <3

Episode twenty three of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's guest is Georgia comedian Vandy Beth Glenn.
Otherwise known as the Prioress of Freedonia.
The island of comedians
The safe haven from hecklers.
The set of that Marvel rom-com about Ironic Woman and that clone of Hitler that turned out to be a wonderful humanitarian.
Podcast seems to have gone off the rails a little once Prioress took on that role as Ironic Woman.

Tyrants In Training Episode 21 -David H Steinberg: The C.A.D of Fabulon
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.

Tuesday Nov 29, 2022
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.
