    Until this thread and the news headlines I had no idea who this Brand guy was.

    Still don’t.

    Still don’t.

    He was a fairly big name in the UK, and there was a big scandal about him in 2008 where he phoned up the actor Andrew Sachs and left a message on-air that he'd been sleeping with his granddaughter. He ended up with him getting fired by the BBC, as did some BBC managers. I didn't think many Americans knew much about him either until this happened. He's pretty sleazy IMHO, and like many celebs seems to think he's a lot cleverer than the evidence would suggest.

    I was only joking

      I don't doubt that he has some extraordinary mental horsepower, at least when it comes to weaving a ton of words together on the fly. But lots of people think he's an incoherent crazy person.

        He was, when he was coked up and kicking. He's also an extremely good writer, occasionally weird subject matter notwithstanding.

        Please love yourself.

          The United Kingdom wants Brand removed from Rumble:

          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

              Megyn Kelly commented that the accusations against Brand seem pretty credible, particularly the contemporaneous visit to an ER after the alleged assault and a rape kit being taken.

              But...that's for courts to decide.

                    I’m not clear when a company like YouTube becomes ethically free to monetize a criminal’s videos. I don’t think anybody is clear about that. Actually some deep thinking about ethics is probably never involved to begin with. We appear to be fine with letting people into society even after they’ve been convicted and punished. Most areas of society at least.

                          Did somebody hack Jolly? It was originally a Gutfeld program, but it's been replaced by something even weirder...

                                  It's just exactly what Jolly intended.

                                    Fox is certainly a lot more diverse since Lachlan took over

                                        One thing to demonetize Brand for these alleged affairs.

                                        Quite another to demonetize someone who links Brand.
