Videos and photo of Ryan and Shane's portrait posted on AliciaAnneArt's Instagram story July 16, 2026

This portrait was painted live while filming Mystery Files 5x07, the Theodosia Burr Alston episode

because I coughed in his mouth. um.

someone congratulates you on having a baby and you use the moment to imply that you are your co-host's baby, while you stare at each other with heart eyes, and don't even bother walking it back or cutting it out of the episode

We're halfway through the year and enjoying a great rpf summer!

Steven and Andrew posted a beautiful video from Hawaii and Andrew confirmed it was his second trip to the islands and that he's only been there with Steven and Adam. The trip not only included them sharing delicious foods, but also a rainbow and the lovely beach scenery.

Steven also told Andrew "I wish you were my wife," which made even the stoic Adam laugh. Maybe it's because Steven keeps making this joke.

Shyan

The boys started off their summer in Key West by getting very close to each other outside a haunted firehouse. And in the Road Files for that episode they revealed that the whole trip to Florida was spent in a shared vacation rental house, rather than individual hotel rooms.

On MF Ryan was planning how he and Shane would be buried next to each other, and how their headstones would compliment each other. This was before their new portrait was revealed at the end of the episode, commissioned by Shane who hired a live wedding painter to complete a portrait of the two of them. Much better than Ryan's attempt at drawing Shane again.

Ryan and Shane also made appearances on each other's podcasts in June. On QP Ryan was introduced as Shane’s ghost hunting other half and Matt felt like he was the third-wheel on his own podcast when they made their usual "nasty jokes" about the process of them getting sucked into the pit.

Shane sharing the screen with Ryan and Byron at the same time will also come up in an episode of GF later this year. We'll have to wait and see if the ghost hunt has as many interesting tidbits as the podcast.

Ryan, Shane, and Matt posed for photos in their new Pride merch - which inspired a Shyan themed reel. And on List-o-Mania they all agreed that Chris Pine is very attractive. We love the representation, no matter what!
