Ryan and Noosh are Dead is a bi-weekly podcast where the hosts riff on ridiculous stories from history and pop culture. The hosts are Dhanushka Kumarasinghe (Noosh), who is either enthusiastic or a narcissist but no one is quite sure which, not even him; Courtney Rajan, who can quote Foucault just as easily as she can quote the 10th Doctor; Ken Tran, who somehow breaks every mic in the studio; Brendan Kidney, professional babysitter; and Ryan Walters, who's been away making babies and promised to return one day. New episodes publish every 15th and 30th of each month. Tune in and enjoy the laughs while learning something probably useless!
