The comedian/writer/actor is heading to Dallas for this year’s Texas Bear Round-up, and he’s got his work cut out for him. Branum, who you may know from his recent appearance in the Billy Eichner film Bros, will headline TBRU’s Saturday night with a night of standup.
But his talents have been seen and appreciated for a good while. He’s the creator of truTV’s Talk Show the Game Show, a writer for The Mindy Project and Billy on the Street and also a vocal advocate for queer representation and body positivity and acceptance.
He dropped his My Life as a Goddess memoir in 2018. He’s also been all over the internet and Twitter with his criticisms of the Oscar-winning film The Whale, which he feels has underlying tones of homophobia and fatphobia.
