Several big event teams pulled upcoming gigs featuring comedian Reggie Watts after an inquiry by Rolling Stone regarding claims that he used drugs and treated his late partner poorly. His upcoming appearances at different locations were quickly removed as details surfaced. In addition, the Comedy Bang! Bang! podcast decided to drop his theme song from its regular lineup. Media platforms including Variety and Rolling Stone Australia kept reporting on venues cutting ties with him and broadcasters pulling his music, after the published report described him as a frequent user of ketamine.
