[edit] Half brother of Joe Rogan

Bryan & Joe are not half brothers. Joe Rogan, when trying to explain how close they were, said that Bryan was his "brother from another mother." Someone took this literally & it eventually found its way to IMBD.com. IMBD is the only place that the Bryan Allen and Joe Rogan articles cited. An article on AllBusiness.com says, "Joe Rogan and Bryan Callen met on the set of the Fox Television sketch comedy series MAD-TV, on which Callen used to be a regular performer and Rogan was once a guest star. A friendship bloomed, based on their common admiration for the martial arts, pitbulls, women, and especially standup comedy, which both of them continue to perform." There is no mention of them being long lost half brothers. http://www.allbusiness.com/services/amusement-recreation-services/4368067-1.html

On SuperiorPics.com, it says, "Joe has been widely reported as the half-brother of comedian Bryan Callen. He disclosed in a radio interview that he refers to Callen as his “brother from another mother” to explain how close they relationships are." http://www.superiorpics.com/joe_rogan/

Joe's profile on IMDB was updated to say, "Although widely reported to be true, Bryan Callen is not his half brother." http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0736579/bio

I am removing this "fact" from both this page and Joe Rogan's page. 71.225.210.77 (talk) 14:18, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
