I know this is three weeks behind, but please bear with me.

This podcast episode is in dedication and remembrance of our late beloved New York City environmental and social justice activist, Ryan Theorsen Carsen. In the early morning hours of Monday, October 2nd, Ryan's life was snuffed from him by a dirty no-good lowlife whom he did not know at all. His girlfriend, Claudia Morales, was unharmed but got spat on. They were both coming home from a wedding in Long Island. Ryan was a native of East Bridgewater, which is 30 miles south of Boston. He moved to Brooklyn, NY in 2010 to pursue his activism career. From reading his work, and poetry, to watching all of the activism work he was doing from climate change to trying to end the opioid pandemic, I was touched. He truly wanted to make the world a better place for everyone in NYC and the world. To all the right-wingers and vile media trolls that used Ryan's activism and work, to try to justify his untimely demise, Y'ALL ARE DISGUSTING! He was not anti-police, pro-BLM, or whatever it is that you try to pin on him and his girlfriend. Ryan lost his life for nothing and instead of being sympathetic, you choose the obvious route to make up lies. Don't worry. Another round of defamation lawsuits are coming your way. Anyway, I (as pretty much as everyone else) saw the whole senseless act unfold before our very eyes. It brought me to tears (and yes, I was crying. So you can call me soft, soyboy, etc. I don't care). Ryan was a good guy who was pure of joy with hope for a brighter future. It's awful what has happened to him. As for the lowlife that did this to Ryan, I would never forgive him. Hope that he rots behind bars and never sees the light of day ever again. He took from Ryan that no one else had the right to take, LIFE!To the friends and family of Ryan and all that knew in NYC and in Boston, I just want to say that I am so sorry that this happened. He didn't deserve that at all and I don't care what negative comments people have to say. If you're not gonna offer condolences, then keep the negativity to yourself. Please, I STRONGLY urge you guys to listen to the video podcast (if you want ofc. I am not forcing you to. I only did this episode of the kindness of my heart). We lost a great contributor to the world that has gone too soon. Sad, gutwrenching, and heart-aching all once. Rest easily, Ryan Theorsen Carsen. We will make sure that your work continues and that you live forever in the hearts and memories of those who love you.
