Better known as Batting Stance Guy, Gar Ryness has hundreds of thousands of views on YouTube, Instagram, ESPN, MLB Network and was even on Letterman showing off his hilarious ability--he deems the "least marketable skill in America"-- to imitate the various stances of baseball players at the plate.

He was one of the first people I met in LA and has remained a good friend (even being in my wedding) all these years. I actually babysat his two daughters and now they are 20 and 15 years old.

Gar drops major truths on what its like to allow your kids to fail, despite that natural tendency to want to swoop in and save them. His stories about his childhood and the rules his dad invoked are hilarious ("no singing at the table") and he speaks about what he learned as a 7th grader that he swore he would never say to his own kids.
