User:BabyFaceBren

BabyFaceBren is the YouTube channel of Brendan Roberts (born October 26, 1961) with content consisting of rare TV and film clips and music and original edits "re-imagining" radio clips and podcasts (usually "Comedy Bang! Bang!"), with music, video and still photographs.

To the annoyance of many fans of "CBB" (and the delight of a few), Roberts occasionally includes his own visual gags, adding a contemporary twist to years-old content (which soon dates again!).

From its beginning in 2013 until January 2020, BabyFaceBren earned just 1.7k subscribers, but the COVID pandemic and worldwide lock-down saw its audience climb as Roberts stayed occupied making "CBB" edits and a captive audience desperate for a laugh lapped them up. As at November 2023, BabyFaceBren has over 11.5k subscribers.

BabyFaceBren is unaffiliated with "Comedy Bang! Bang!" and Roberts has no idea if its creator, Scott Aukerman, has seen any of his his edits, or knows of his existence. "If so, he leaves me alone and I take it as a green light, until I hear otherwise. I hope he would like my cuts", says the bipolar, drug-addled Australian, "but I reckon he'd think they're shite".
