We're All Mad Here features conversations, interviews, medium-ish dives into news and pop culture, and other loose rantings on all the things that are pissing us off on any given day. Each episode of the show will transform our anger (and yours) into something brand new through curiosity, conversation, humour and love.

In this episode of Red Man Laughing, Ryan brings back the "Ryan McMahon Gets Angry" format and writes a letter to those of you that enjoy doing puzzles. This is a rant for the ages!
