Years after Katherine Ryan reportedly confronted Russell Brand about alleged predatory behavior while working alongside him on Comedy Central’s “Roast Battle” in 2018, the comedian has spoken out following his conviction on rape and sexual assault charges.

“It really made me feel just quite dysregulated again, caught off-guard, emotional, in awe of the survivors who also had nothing to gain,” Ryan said on the latest episode of her podcast “Telling Everybody Everything.” “They came forward despite Russell Brand having fame, power, money and a legion of fans ready to attack them.”
