Here's an article about Ryan's appearance.

http://www.newsobserver.com/2012/03/20/ ... f-fun.html
“How was I supposed to know that the Beastie Boys popularized it? I’m only 20,” Trimble, a Wendell native, said in a phone interview last week.
That's okay. I'm more than 20 and didn't know it, either.
A UNC-Wilmington junior, Trimble tried out to become a contestant while interning with Saturday Night Live and Late Night with Jimmy Fallon last year in New York.
