Ryan Atwood

I really enjoyed that quite a bit.

And then a documentary I watched, we all know Ben McKenzie played Ryan Atwood, most notably known for Ryan Atwood from the OC.

Okay.

He has an econ degree, by the way.

48.

Is it Ryan Atwood? Is that what I'm reading?

No, his name is Benjamin McKenzie.

He was on the OC.

Okay, I understand.

and he I just love him I've always loved Ryan Atwood and I've always loved Ben McKenzie to the point where I watched like Gotham to like watch Ben McKenzie and that's not a show for me but it was really good and I highly recommend it you can rent it on Amazon Prime and I just feel like I learned so much like He thinks that every single celebrity who has endorsed crypto should be penalized because they're not a licensed financial advisor and shouldn't be giving financial advice.

And at one point, like his wife's in it.

And the Matt Damon commercial comes on and he was like, oh, my God, I fucking hate this guy.

You've got my character name, and that's important.

Okay, Ryan Atwood.

No, full character name.

I was a huge fan of The O.C. Yeah.

you think? I think it was important for a number of reasons.

And, and first of all, you know, I've on TV, I've played these stoic guys, you know, Jim Gordon and Ryan Atwood from the OC and a cop on a show called Southland.

But I'm, I don't think I'm quite that serious in real life.

So that was, I wanted to show another side.

But like I am at an age, 47, where I look around and if there's something that I think is bad, really bad.

And for some reason, I think I'm one of the few people.

I know it's strange that Ryan Atwood from the OC would be the guy to do this.

I get that.

Yeah.

uh the oc was amazing uh speaking of the oc uh benjamin mckenzie who played ryan atwood on the show he actually just came out with a documentary um on cryptocurrency wow he's anti-cryptocurrency big time he's been on twitter for years and his documentary is out there i've watched it over the weekend it's really good he did a fantastic job with it you wouldn't expect that from ryan atwood of the oc but uh he did a great job so Fighting against crypto.

He thinks it's a scam.

Oh.

I mean, we were so invested that we cared about every single character.

Now, the reason I bring that up is because The actor that exploded out of that TV series, Ben McKenzie, he played Ryan Atwood.

You'll probably remember that.

Ben is the man in front and behind the camera for this documentary.

For those who don't know, this stands for the Orange County, even if no one from the actual Orange County in California has ever used that term, or at least never used it before the show, and I suspect anyone who uses it now is using it ironically.

The O.C. starred Ben McKenzie as Ryan Atwood, a kid from the wrong side of the tracks in Chino, a crime-ridden hellscape compared to Newport Beach.

Beep, beep.

He gets taken in by a wealthy family headed by Peter Gallagher's Sandy and Kelly Rowan's Kirsten Cohen.
