This must have been horrendous to research I read 3 chapters of my friends copy of booky wook, Brand was obnoxious to her and other runners in Endemol working for Big Brother. I've hated him ever since the verbosity of that book was sickening that was before Alex Jones wannabe era Brand! Ych y fi.
I am torn between listening to every ep, even if it's on someone I thought was a complete prick right from the start with his Citizen Smith tribute act, or skipping to the next one I see on Patreon which I'm far more interested in.
Thanks - genuinely changed my opinion of the man. I always thought he was vile, but the embracing of the rightwing conspiracists felt like a cynical move by someone who knew they wouldn’t mind the sexual allegations, rather than because (as you lay out) he’s now a True Believer.
An examination of a ghastly charlatan. It also explains the telltale signs of paranoia and conspiratorial thinking that are displayed by toxic celebrities and the mechanisms that reward their grandiosity. Brand made my flesh creep long before his vile abusive behaviour and narcissism were exposed.
Russel Brand is a creep. An opportunist who has found a new grift.
Looking forward to listening!
OK, listening and he is much worse than I thought. And I thought he was really bad.
Was he really ever left-wing though? I have always thought he was abhorrent.
