Bryan Callen Accused of Sexual Assault

[Dan Torrance]

Isn't alleged behavior like this what got him kicked off OZ? I don't remember

is this a bisexual joke?

 

[burningspear]

When its a one off, out of character move, red flags are waving(like nobody really believed Depp was a wife-beater) but now Callen has 4 accusers? 4 is a lot of women to read the wrong signals on.

I guess he missed that part in Blade Runner where Deckard orders Rachel to give him consent.

He was kicked off OZ? Guess I haven't listened to TFATK in a little while...

He talked about it on one of his earliest episodes of the jre.

is this a bisexual joke?

No

Rogan has commented on Callens' Covid but not the allegations



Hopefully soon?

Update.. He got taken off TV, his podcast 'paused' and dropped by the company that represents the podcast, dropped by his agents, and started a new podcast behind a paywall with Schaub that's now 'on hold'.

Comedian Bryan Callen dropped by agents at CAA, Innovative Artists
In Callen’s absence, Schaub continued to host the podcast with special guests and said he was refraining from sharing his “true thoughts” about the allegations because it was “only gonna hurt Bryan.” Kast Media, which represents the podcast, told The Times it has “no association” with Callen and is “not aware” of any plans for him to return to “The Fighter & the Kid.”

But then, one week ago, Callen announced that he and Schaub would reteam on a podcast behind a paywall. That podcast, called “The Fighter & the Wrinks,” launched last Friday on Patreon, where fans pay $5 a month for access. And yet after just one episode of the new venture, its future is already uncertain.

On Wednesday, Callen told the patrons in a video update that “due to forces that are beyond our control,” “The Fighter & the Wrinks” was on hold. In its place, he said, he would offer the patrons other content, including a podcast about conspiracy theories with comedian Sam Tripoli and another with his hot take on the news.

^ Yikes. I haven't been following this thread or story at all. But that's bad news for Callen.

I've actually been entertained by some of his appearances on Rogan's podcast over the years.

Don't know enough about this controversy to hold an opinion on it, but I take no joy in seeing him fall.

Callen enters the fray against his bff Schaub and Joey Diaz in the competition for who will headline Rogan's Texas comedy club on Tuesday afternoons.

All over accusations.

thats not right

 

[ultimateriley-o]

I've always found Callen repulsive and slimy, and the way he talks about women, for example his admission of behaviours like pulling his dick out at Whitney Cummings, makes these allegations completely unsurprising.

 

[Fanu]

Isn't he secretly gay? Just like his buddy brendan

Just reading up on whats going on with callen and TFATK and saw this comment on reddit:

"TFATK was filled in with Josh Wolf, who really sucks and fake laughs as Brenda constantly, so Brenda thinks he's being funny...callen and Brenda then made a show called The Fighter and the wrinks, behind a 5 dollar patreon.. It was literally the same show, only "kid" changed to "wrinks".... Turns out Kast Media owns TFATK (Not Brenda and callen) so Kast Media probably said they were going to sue, unless they stop doing TFATW...those 2 made $40k in patreon for 1 episode but they promised many...now callen is scrambling to make trash shows to fulfill the patreon subscribers....hes doing a show with that trash conspiracy comic, Tripoli. Callen is basically over."

Just read he had 4 accusers now. I suppose patreon is the only way hes going to make good money from now on.

4 accusers for what exactly ?

 

[DC23]

Ouch... Feel bad for him. What a shit time we live in. People crying wolf and getting anything they want. Guy is a bit of a dirtbag and probably slid into so many chicks DM's thinking he was a 20 year old stud but to ruin him is wrong.

LOL just seen it's from 20 years ago. Fml.

 

[TheWobbler]

4 accusers for what exactly ?

Rape, sexual favours for stage time, pinning someone against wall and kissing her and one for comments he made saying that women have a “biological, primal desire to be raped.

Oh those were the original 4.

There was 1 real accusation and the rest were basically saying hes grimey.

Not exactly the same thing as "four women came forward".

Damn, no such thing as loyalty in Hollywood. Sucks for him especially since it seemed he was starting to enter the prime of his career.

 

[Fatality]

If by "secretly" you mean "flamboyantly obviously" then yes. How anyone can even glance at Callen and not have their gaydar redline is a mystery to me.

Yeah its obvious, I just wrote "secretly" cause mfer still won't come out of the closet.
Either way I am amazed he is being reported by females for sexual misconduct.

 

[Mesos]

Well Homies we got a new twist to the story. So now Callen is claiming the husband of the lady he allegedly raped has been harassing him and trying to get his comedy gigs canceled



“Bryan Callen is suing the husband of a woman who claims that the comedian raped her, arguing her spouse is out to ruin his career.
On Wednesday, Callen filed a complaint in Los Angeles Superior Court alleging that Gabriel Tigerman has launched an “ongoing campaign to destroy [the comic’s] livelihood” via “threats, harassment and intimidation of third parties that dare contact him.” Tigerman is married to Katherine Fiore Tigerman, who in July told The Times that in 1999, Callen held her down on a bed and forced her to have sex with him. She was one of four women who claimed that Callen was sexually inappropriate with them in a story that described his alleged assault, misconduct and disturbing comments.
Callen adamantly denied all of the women’s stories and stressed that his encounter with Fiore Tigerman had been consensual. On social media, he quickly responded not to “lay low,” promising his fans that he wouldn’t “post a statement and disappear.”

Though he has since taken a leave of absence from his podcast, "The Fighter and the Kid," Callen has continued to book upcoming stand-up dates despite the fact that he was dropped by his Hollywood representatives, the Creative Artists Agency and Innovative Artists, in August

The Times confirmed on Wednesday that four locations — Brickyard Comedy Club in Oklahoma City, Skyline Comedy Club in Appleton, Wis., Spokane Comedy Club in Washington and DC Improv in Washington, D.C. — recently pulled Callen’s shows from their schedules. He is still slated to perform this fall at five different venues in Ohio, Missouri, Texas and Indiana.“
