The Culture List

Last month, you might have seen that Service95 travelled to LA for a week of culture and catching up with fellow creatives. While we were in town, we took a moment with Ryan Alexander Holmes to pick up a few cultural recs.

You can always guarantee a good tip from Ryan, a person with many strings to his creative bow: he’s an actor, content creator, public speaker, the founder of cross-cultural organisation Bloom as well as co-host of The Mixed Message podcast.

So, for our latest edition of My Culture List – our regular series where we find out what inspires the people who inspire us – Ryan shares the picks currently on his radar. A common theme that runs throughout: he loves anything that brings people together, from games of mahjong and dumpling-wrapping with his family over Lunar New Year, to the Yunnan restaurant where he gathers each month with friends (his second-favourite place to eat – grandma’s cooking will always come in at number one).

Keep watching to discover more, including the book genre he has a kink for (his words) to the film that made him truly understand the power of memories, and made him “a better person”. 

Here’s what’s on Ryan’s Culture List.
