Bryan Christopher Callen (born January 26, 1967) is an American actor, comedian, and podcaster. He studied acting at the Beverly Hills Playhouse, and got his start as one of the original cast members on the sketch comedy series MADtv. Callen is co-host of the successful independent podcast The Fighter & The Kid, alongside entertainer and former UFC Heavyweight contender Brendan Schaub.
Callen was born in Manila, Philippines to American parents of Irish, Italian and Native American descent. His father was an international banker, so Bryan lived overseas until he was 14 years old in various countries including: Philippines, India, Pakistan, Lebanon, Greece and Saudi Arabia. He graduated from Northfield Mount Hermon High School in Gill, Massachusetts in 1985.
Callen was one of the eight original cast members when MADtv debuted in 1995. Callen's characters included Pool Boy from Cabana Chat with Dixie Wetsworth, motivational speaker Al Casdy, and "relationship-challenged" death row inmate Jeremy Anderson. Callen also performed impersonations of Bill Clinton, Robert De Niro, Al Gore, Luke Perry, Steven Seagal, Sammy Hagar, Kevin Bacon, Jim Carrey, Ted Knight, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sean Astin, and Frank Gifford.
