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. 

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 #improvcomedy #comedy #parents #Ireland

Episode twenty two of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's guest is Atlanta comedian Mickey Simon.     Otherwise known as Mistress Mickey. If you plan to relocate to the beautiful island of Sparklandia, you should know, it was built with the help of Disney plus employees and a superhero may have reached a very sad but sexy end on the island. Also, Ian Somerhalder is a unicorn. We don't know why, he just seems the type.   

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 third episode of Season Two and the thirteenth episode in the history of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's guest is actor Lee Shorten Also known as...well, his name of the country of Alpha. . You can also see him as Biff in the Star Wars spin-off of the original trilogy which features the musical group Biff & The Council jamming their way through cantina's in Mos Eisley.   As for Alpha, it has great education and childcare services, particularly the social program overseen by Lee that guarantees triplets for every parent wishing to conceive them.  Some quotes: "No democracy" "I'm not a maniacal despot, I promise" Fun guest!!   #improvcomedy #comedy #actors

Follow the podcast at it's own website: https://tyrant-in-training.podcastpage.io/   The first episode of Season Two and the eleventh episode in the history of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's guest is writer/novelist Denise Cruz-Castino. Also known as Dame Denise of Floren. Home to the best cocktails in the world and so exclusive, it sorta works like the Clubhouse app. 10 million people may have passports but only 1 million can live on Floren at a time. Oh and also make sure to bring a knife with you. For some reason that's very important. If your knife is stolen then Dame Denise will buy you a new knife. If you need a new job Dame Denise will give you a loan worth half a million too. "None of this is real, what do I care?" Wise words from a wise Dame.  #tyrant #training #improv #comedy

Tenth and final episode of Season One of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's guest is actress Nikoline Bangen.  An unfortunate editing mishap by the host has caused a zombie plague to be unleashed on Norway. Thankfully Nikoline, with a vast knowledge of government buildings and their decor, is on hand to lead a group of 100 survivors who just so happened to be on tour near her house. With 40 survivors over the age of 80 (including 91 year old pregnant former sailor Sarah) Nikoline quickly figures out the best shelter for them. A few days in this government building and then they can journey to the nearby docks where they can find a boat to sail out in search of a safe island.   However, as zombies surround the building, tempers flair amongst survivors due to a heated arm wrestling contest for the use of their only mattress. Added to this dilemma is the arrival of tyrannical soldier Laurence and his men. Nikoline must keep the peace between two groups of survivors and convince them they need to get ready for the journey to the docks.  Can Nikoline keep her survivors, which include ex MMA trainee and mattress enthusiast Mark, quiet guy Nor Wayne and my mother Hannah, alive? Will Nikoline help Laurence find the 12th in line to the Norwegian throne? Listen to find out.    

Ninth episode of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's guest are improv comedy group - Those Four Misfits: Doug Kayne, Jane Hopkins and Ryan Provencher. Also known as The Alpha's of Misfitopia. Just so you know which Tyrant is which, Alpha Alpha is Doug, Alpha Beta is Jane and Alpha Gamma is Ryan. However if you ask Alpha Beta then Ryan is Alpha Alpha but if you ask Ryan or Doug then Doug is Alpha Alpha. Don't worry, it somehow works! Having gained control of the island from former leader, Reginald Humbug, the trio of tyrants have been busy with foreign policies such as attacking dangerous insects in Australia, bombing Hamburg and starring in Sesame Street. Of course on the domestic front, many scandals have engulfed the tyrannical administration. Scandals most likely to start when Alpha Alpha utters the phrase "If I may". He has been demoted many times so it really depends on the day whether Alpha Alpha is Alpha Delta, Alpha Epsilon or Alpha Omega.  Misfitopia, a beautiful nation, not only initiates a world first "Free Coke" scheme for the world but is also the only country to become mobile, running proudly from the forceful U.N who are chasing them after the trio blindsided a world leader with an impromptu steel cage match. 

Sixth episode of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's guest is CEO & Executive Producer of San Fenix, comedian, actress, filmmaker Andrea Bridges-Smith. Also known as the Premier of the island of Volcania. Home of the best fruit salads in the world and champion of feeding the hungry.  A paradise for people who love good fresh fruit, healthy living and a great standard of living. Unfortunately if you're name is Ted Cruz you will probably be monitored for some time in case you're the same Ted as the man from Texas. Also be warned, if you try to bring in any of that yellow mustard stuff you will be caught, forced down to the docks and made to row for a solid hour and extra hour added onto each time you are caught thereafter. Fortunately this has replaced expensive gym memberships and become a great way to get exercise! Pay no attention to the minor scandal involving the Premier burping into future soccer manager Fred's face while he discussed his long life of starvation. Fred may have dropped into a coma due to it but he's a strong 112 year old. He WILL recover. The Premier is in no way an insane tyrant, even if she has gone to the hospital to visit Fred and ended up forcing a patient to wear a dress made of x-rays. What sturdy tyrant wouldn't do that? Volcania might be a lovely island paradise thanks to the Premier but unfortunately it does end with her running for a boat and taking beloved actor Billy Porter with her. 

Fifth episode of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's guest is actor, screenwriter, director, youtuber Cedric Gegel.    Also known as the M.C.P, the Most Celebrated Pomp of the Mediterranean island of Naboo (not affiliated with Disney and we are happy to fight for the naming rights in court!) .  An environmentalists dreamland with no cars permitted on the island. You can also enjoy the world famous brownies and other bakery goods Naboo has to offer. Fred, the beloved 90 year old senator is even promising a 20ft brownie at the next festivities. Don't worry, he's not carrying it! Pay no attention to the minor scandal involving certain books being banned such as Romeo & Juliet. Cedric, our M.C.P, feels terrible about this rash decision. He also does not condone Brian's behavior in the Department of War and has moved him onto the streets to sweep up leaves. Since the island is 80% forest park there is a great chance Brian is going to be driven insane. Driven...get it. (No cars, you see!)   This episode features a large cast of characters including Brian, Paul, Lauren, Captain Adam and the M.C.P's favorite goon - Ajax.    My God, what a disastrous inner circle they all turned out to be! Happy New Year (Newboo Year)

Second episode of the Tyrant In Training podcast. Hosted by Kevin Ryan. Today's guests are Dean Boo and Abbie from the podcast ThatFKingShow.    Here on out known as The Man (Dean) Might Monarch Boo Lemont (Boo) and Queen of the Dead (Abbie) of the island ThatFKing Island, later split into three territories: That FKing Territory, Boolandia and the Dead Zone. Visit to enjoy the wonderful dog park of Boolandia, the City of the Dead where the new seat of Christianity has been formed thanks to another heist from George Clooney and friends. Visit, if you must, The Man's territory which has seen citizens take on a rabid hatred of Tom Hanks and his family.   Pay no attention to the U.N and their criticism of The Man nuking Vatican City after a lost football match. Pay no attention to the pineapple murders by Queen of the Dead.  Listen instead to Mighty Monarch Boo Lemont and the island's badly received Eurovision song "Picky Picky Pineapple. Also, if anyone asks about Chet Hanks, he was never here OK?
