3:30.0	Where he is, you are familiar with his work. You are familiar with his work. Either that in Hollywood, which he did in Hollywood, in comedy and in movies, or what he is doing his whole tag line is, is stay free, he talks about freedom and revolution and all these things. Now, recently there have been allegations that have come up in allegations of a sexual assault and rape against Russell Brand, and also a documentary titled Russell Brand in Plains
4:00.0	site that was put out by Channel 4 in the UK. I believe Dispatches is also the name for

5:04.0	seeker. He's telling people to stay free. He's speaking out against the mainstream media
5:08.1	and doing so in a way that more often than not, the mainstream media is not happy about.
