Ryan Beil was one of the original hosts of Weird Al Karaoke in Vancouver along with Weird Pal in what true fans refer to as the Dark Age of the show.
Ryan is an actor, similar to Shane McLean, and abandoned the show after his co-host Weird Pal disappeared under mysterious circumstances.
In Summer, 2017, Ryan Beil actually met Weird Owl in a crossover event that fans had always wondered about.
During the show, Ryan Beil insulted and demeaned Weird Owl, calling him a "puppet" and ignoring Weird Owl's attempts to generate a new, shared lore history between them.
In October, 2021, Weird Owl and Ryan Beil reunited in a respectful manner which delighted and placated fans outraged after the snub from Beil in 2017.
During the event, Beil called Weird Owl "attractive" and "cute."
The duo then improvised a song to the tune of "Rainbow Connection." Fans later agreed that Weird Owl outshined Beil during this duet.
