Ryan Libbey calls out thieves after chasing two men who tried to steal his bike from his home as he speaks out on 'disgusting' theft in London
The podcast host, who is engaged to Louise Thompson, explained he realised the dogs were sniffing around the front door so he went to investigate and found two men who had jumped the fence and made it into his front garden area.
Taking to his Instagram Story he told fans: 'Guys this is pretty scary but I was sat inside having lunch and the dogs were sniffing around the front door which I didn't think much of, but I called them and they didn't come.
'So I went to scoop them up and I thought I'll just open the door to check there's no postman there and I opened the door to find two blokes taking my bicycle apart.
'As soon as I opened the door they started to scurry of, I managed to catch them and snatch my bike and my wheel off them, although they still have my f*****g axle which puts the two parts together.'

Ryan revealed that as well as managing to get parts of his own bike back, he also managed to get another bike they had taken.
Sharing a snap of it he told fans: 'I also managed to get this bike off them. So this belongs to someone in the Fulham area, so if you recognise it I've got it for you.'
Ryan also managed to get the thieves identities clearly on his CCTV as he expressed his frustrations at the 'disgusting behaviour' of thieves in London.
He continued: 'I do have their faces that I have caught on my camera so I am actually going to post their face on this because at this point I am so fed up with thieves in London.
'If you have got bicycles outside your house, or prams, I have had prams stolen from outside here before. These things aren't cheap, so it's just disgusting behaviour.
'So I am going to post their face. There's two of them, they are pretty short 5ft 5 Asian dudes, tracksuits, vests, caps and when I let them go they scurried off towards Wandsworth bridge away from the Chelsea area.
'So yeah, just thought I would share it with you and if this is your bike, let me know.'
It comes after Bridgerton star Genevieve Chenneour who fought off a phone thief revealed he threatened to stab her in a 'life or death' brawl that left her terrified to leave the house - and live in London.

The actress, 27, bravely defended herself after Zacariah Boulares, 18, snuck up behind her and grabbed her phone in Joe & The Juice on Kensington High Street, west London, on February 8.
MailOnline exclusively revealed on Wednesday CCTV footage of the shocking attack on the rising star at the upmarket coffee shop.
Appearing on This Morning on Thursday, she explained the whole incident lasted around five minutes in total, with her pinning her attacker to the floor for much of that time.
Genevieve explained: 'It kind of went round the corner and it turned into a full-on scrap with two people [Boulares and his accomplice].
'And I was threatened with being stabbed so it became a real matter, in my mind, of life and death.
'So, I did things like, I remember kicking him back with my leg to create space in case he had a weapon on him… It was just a life-changing, crazy moment.'
The star admitted the horrifying experience left her terrified in the immediate aftermath: 'I didn't want to go outside.
'I mean as a woman we already, I think, have our wits about us around strangers and random men.
'So, to have this happen to me while dealing with that base level that a lot of women have, just made me quite agoraphobic. Leaving the house was really hard.'
'I've been here for seven years, working, auditioning, acting, just to kind of have a bit of a reset because it really did affect my confidence.
'Going out the first time [after the incident], I remember standing in a queue and just my hands were sweating and I was so vigilant and aware of my surroundings.
'So yeah, just kind of trying to feel calmer.'
The clip shows her bravely confronting her attacker: 'I don't know if I would advise anybody else to do it.
'I think I have very quick reactions, thanks to having three brothers growing up and I'm an aviated carded boxer.
'I think it just was an instinct, I also do a lot of fight training for work and acting…
'I thought that was a normal reaction and I read all the comments [online] and realised, actually, a lot of people would just let them take the phone.'

Emmerdale newcomer Joe Absolom reveals dark story for drug dealer villain
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) AFTER making a dramatic debut on Emmerdale last month, Joe Absolom's new drug dealing character, Ray, keeps mysteriously disappearing – only to return with more dodgy antics up his sleeve. And this week, he is back again only this time, he scuppers any plans of a romantic date between April Windsor and her homeless pal, Dylan Penders. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 3 Joe Absolom has teased darkness for his Emmerdale villain Ray Credit: Getty 3 Joe plays the villainous Ray in Emmerdale and there are dark things ahead Credit: ITV 3 The actor shot to fame as Matthew in EastEnders Credit: BBC The pair had arranged to finally go out together but after Ray returns to the village again, Dylan suddenly abandons the plans. It soon becomes apparent he's being paid by Ray to deliver his drugs to clients in return for huge wads of cash. Dylan has also been trying to hide a stab wound by thug Kyle. For former EastEnders and Doc Martin star, Joe, 46, the plotlines have proved a blast to film with the actor going as far today to reveal he has always rated the soap as being the 'friendliest' since shooting to fame 25 years ago in EastEnders. He even admits he used to think some Hollyoaks' stars came across more like 'footballers' than soap actors. Joe reveals: 'Everyone has been so welcoming since I joined and I am loving filming the scenes. 'What is funny is years ago when we went to the Soap Awards, we – the EastEnders mob - would all say at the end of it, 'Emmerdale are the nicest lot'. 'You'd speak to these guys and you'd see the Hollyoaks' guys flexing, they would always wear white dinner jackets - slightly like footballers. 'Coronation Street were all interesting people. Emmerdale were always the most genuine and lovely people, so when I saw Jeff (Hordley), we were laughing about how we'd met many years ago. 'The fact they have been really nice since I arrived has helped.' He teases the plot lines will get very dark in the coming weeks with some drugs even going astray. Horrifying moment Emmerdale's April comes face to face with man who committed disgusting act on her while homeless 'It's also set to cause more upset for fan favourite Marlon Dingle as his daughter April, played by Amelia Flanagan, looks set to get embroiled in the drug drama. 'Ray is such a fun character to play,' adds Joe. 'We've been filming in the park and my character sees the youngsters as easy manipulation. 'I can't say too much but Ray has been handing over wads of cash! I get to peel off fifty pounds notes!' Last month, Joe revealed how his 14-year-old son, Casper – Cass for short - in particular thinks it is pretty cool his dad is playing a drug gangster. Today he confides, Cass,14, has been inspired to follow in his footsteps one day. And Joe – also a proud dad to Lyla, 18, and Daisy, 12 - says he has seen his own life flash before him as he encourages Cass to pursue his dreams. But he smiles as he reveals his son definitely doesn't have any plans to land a role in a soap. Instead, he's hoping to one day star in a Netflix drama. 'Cass wants to be an actor, 'says Joe. 'He is desperate. He is like 'dad I want to be on Stranger Things!' This is the YouTube and Netflix generation; they want to be in Marvel films!' Joe goes on to admit, however, he initially tried to put his son off before seeing just how talented he is. 'I told him 'Don't do it, get a proper job'. It's a strange business to go into and there is rejection. 'I do feel it as a parent but he is really good. Genuinely so and I have now helped him get an agent. He has been in Bugsy and he's had some very good auditions and got very close.' Reflecting on how much his life has turned a full circle, Joe adds: 'What is weird is my dad used to be my chaperone and what's weird is there I was recently sitting in Manchester taking him to an audition! It feels like the circle of life is turning.' How will he feel if Cass does land his first major TV role? 'It's surreal,' replies Joe. 'I've explained the risks and I do worry about the cost on a young mind and rejection but he says he is up for it! Fingers crossed!' Whilst Cass dreams of being the next Stranger Things star, Joe says the role of British soaps still have a huge one to play. He praises soap bosses for ensuring they can now be streamed, like Netflix shows. Says Joe: 'The way people watch TV is changing but soaps are finding their way in that people will come back to the recurring storylines. Soap's most harrowing teen storylines We take a look at other harrowing teen soap storylines from soaps Coronation Street, EastEnders, Emmerdale and Hollyoaks. Belle Dingle's schizophrenia in Emmerdale - Belle's (Eden Taylor-Draper) traumatic journey in Emmerdale took a dark turn when, after accidentally killing her best friend Gemma at just 16, her mental health began to spiral. The storyline, which saw Belle struggling with her grief and guilt, showcased her battle with hearing Gemma's voice inside her head, leading to a dramatic decline in her well-being. Hannah Ashworth's anorexia in Hollyoaks - Viewers were horrified as they watched Hannah (Emma Rigby), a seemingly innocent teen, spiral into dangerous behavior, starving herself in an attempt to achieve what she thought was the ideal body. As Hannah's condition worsened, the storyline became more intense, culminating in her being hospitalised for two months as she fought for her life. Bethany Platt's grooming ordeal in Coronation Street - Vulnerable schoolgirl, played by Lucy Fallon, was at the centre of one of Corrie's darkest storylines to date when she fell under the spell of her older boyfriend and sexual predator. The controversial scenes saw Nathan groom and manipulate the 16-year-old before coercing her into sleeping with his friends, with one of them raping her. Whitney Dean's abuse from Tony in EastEnders - Since the age of 12, she had been in a twisted relationship with her stepmum Bianca's boyfriend, Tony King. The predator had groomed young Whit (Shona McGarty), making her believe she was in love and planning to run away with him. On her 16th birthday, the traumatised teen finally revealed the years of abuse to Bianca. Tony was swiftly sent to prison sentenced for 13 years. 'They have characters who they love and the fact soaps are still part of the schedules on every channel is a testament to the work they put into it and the quality.' As for what lies ahead for Ray and his drug dealing and Joe warns: 'Ray is determined to get what he wants, so that lends itself to many different scenarios. 'If people say: 'we don't want to grow (the drugs) anymore', it puts everyone in a difficult situation. 'Ray knows what they are growing is so good and it sells well. He is very manipulative!' Emmerdale runs every weekdays on ITV1 and STV1 at 7.30pm.

Kim Kardashian's SKIMS face shapewear sold out immediately - but I've found an affordable alternative on Amazon
Daily Mail journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site. If you make a purchase via links on this page we will earn commission - learn more Kim Kardashian has released her latest sell-out item for her SKIMS brand - a head-spinning new product which promises to sculpt customers' faces while they sleep. The item is a headwrap called the Ultimate Face and is billed on the brand's Instagram as 'our first-ever face innovation, made with signature sculpting fabric and infused with collagen yarns for ultra-soft jaw support.' A photo announcing the Ultimate Face shows a woman wearing a skintight nude fabric hood that vaguely resembles a balaclava. Kim said on Instagram: 'We've been doing shape wear for a really long time and now we're going to offer amazing face shape wear which is just such a necessity. This material is actually infused with collagen yearns and it's just this amazing jaw support. 'You can see that it just snatches your chinny chin chin with the jaw and it's super comfortable to wear at night or just around the house. I really wanted to do these - we've been working on them for a long time and I'm really happy that you guys can see it.' The product sold out on the day of release - but here is how you can still join the waitlist for the exact version, or get your hands on a more affordable alternative from Amazon. EXACT MATCH: SKIMS £52 Shop Social media users were incredulous, leaping into the comments with reactions like: 'Is it April Fools?' and: 'What in the Hannibal is this.' 'State of the world in shambles, people dying …,' wrote one commenter. 'Kim: New Hannibal Lector Nylon face wrap just dropped!!!' The jibes were specifically referring to a scene from The Silence of the Lambs in which Anthony Hopkins' cannibalistic serial killer is wheeled out for a meeting with a senator while strapped down, wearing a straitjacket and a muzzle. 'Can't tell if trolling,' 'Peak f***ery,' 'Can we agree to disagree,' and: 'What am I looking at here?' were among the other flabbergasted replies. 'There's a 16 year old girl out there thinking she needs to buy this crap :),' wrote one as another said: 'SKIMS : Making women feel bad about themselves since 2018.' 'How has it come to this?' wrote a third commenter while a fourth sniggered that the 'most insane morning sheds are about to begin.' 'Kim please people are dying!!!' joked one, in reference to a viral remark Kim's sister Kourtney Kardashian made to her while she panicked over a lost earring. Although some observers were aghast at the product, many others were seized with excitement, to the point it sold out on the SKIMS website the day of its release. One Instagram commenter wrote, however: 'If this works so well, why didn't Kris Jenner use this instead of spending thousands of dollars on a face lift?' A Harley Street expert gave their opinion on face wraps, admitting that while there can be temporary benefits it is not a long term fix. Dr Nikita Desai, said: 'Face wraps of this kind offer temporary changes at best and may help with de-puffing your face, similar to how a common surgical garment can help reduce swelling. 'While wraps of this kind can be fun to engage with, it's worth me stressing that beyond this, wraps can't offer any permanent changes such as facial contouring, remodel fat or even boost collagen production. Any changes you see will reverse in a matter of hours as the compression loses its effect.
