Podcast network Daylight has extended its distribution and monetisation partnership with The Shawn Ryan Show by two years, running through the end of 2028. The deal builds on their original agreement signed in 2025 and reflects the continued strength of Ryan's show, one of the most popular podcasts on Spotify, as Daylight expands its roster of high-profile creators. Terms of the new agreement were not disclosed.

Ryan, a former US Navy SEAL and Blackwater contractor turned conservative podcaster, hosts interviews with politicians (including President Donald Trump), business figures, military veterans and journalists. Daylight's content division QCode generates around 250 million downloads and video views monthly and is known for scripted shows featuring stars such as Matthew McConaughey, Rami Malek and Olivia Wilde. The network also handles distribution for Jon Stewart, Bill Maher and The Why Files, and recently acquired the site Podcast Review; Daylight and QCode are led by Rob Herting and Ben Curtis.
