The Bunt

Hmm, not sure I’ll make it to the end of this one.

I’m enjoying this so far, seems like he’s loving life. Little hard to follow the detail of some of his stories but his energy is putting a smile on my face

Oof. Insanely controversial guest choice for tomorrow.

Might well skip this one.

Yeah this is wack.

I’ll be skipping this one as he doesn’t really interest me, they do cover the 2015 arrest from looking at the chapters though.

You should all listen. Even without the controversy it’s a good episode.
I respect the bunt guys for covering the situations. Keenan’s obviously moved on. It took him six years to clear his name. He doesn’t really go into the details despite Donovan pressing him. Apparently there’s more details in a recent hyphenate pod (yeah that hyphenate).
From 45mins

Keelan’s doing his best to change his ways (notably turning vegan :man_shrugging:t2:) and keep skating so hopefully things work out for him.

So I listened, and it is a funny interview in places but I’m divided on whether it was a good idea to get Keelan on to kickstart his redemption campaign for his reputation.

Dude is still incredibly cocky and deeply misogynistic. He brags about how he always used to have 10 ‘baddies’ at his crib and says ‘There’s bitches for everyone, bro. You ain’t always got to take ‘em’ as if this is a marker of how far he’s now come and grown.

The way he addresses the charges against him is also quite confusing. He never properly talks about the details in a direct way, or how he really got caught up in them. All charges were dismissed which isn’t quite the same as him being ‘cleared’.

But he does have a point, we are often quick to judge and slow to forget in cases of sexual misconduct. He may well have been entirely innocent, and now he’s left with this association.

That doesn’t explain, though, why he got involved with the trashiness of Baby Scumbag in the first place. This was a minor whose importuning of and sexual comments directed at women were filmed for cheap clicks. Keelan briefly mentions he got involved because Baby Scumbag was doing ‘numbers’ like it was fine to also try to capitalise off this social media hit.

I still think, even if he’s not guilty of the specific charges levelled against him 8 years ago, that Dadd has no scruples and made some very bad decisions for the wrong reasons.

Wouldn’t be surprised if that CHPO brand stopped sponsoring the Bunt for this interview. It seems at odds with the brand’s values that they love to bang on about in their adverts.

'Baby Scumbag' arrested on suspicion of sexually exploiting 12-year-old girl - ABC7 Los Angeles.

Just re-read this news report from 2015 when they got arrested. Fucking dark.

I know the charges were dropped, so technically he’s innocent, but i’m surprised The Bunt got him on as a guest.

Some genuine lol moments in this. The Dan Sturt story is pretty funny - shame they cut the second one out though. Tanner’s cell phone tower testing job sounds like a nightmare. The Rapid Fire was a proper one this time with no dodging the questions like there has been of late.
