I mind Karen when she was DJ’ing in Bennetts night club in Glasgow. She was at the start of her career and she was great! So sorry this happened, but I’m glad she learned. She was an essential part of my coming out! Loved her before, but I love her more after seeing this. X
Hey Karen. I met you at a few anonymous meetings a few years ago & thought you came across as a lovely person. It was around the time that you had your TV show. Your top table shares where down to earth & very helpful. I didn't realize how much you where struggling at the time because I was also struggling. After these restrictions are lifted I'll be heading back to those meetings. I hope to catch up again at some point. Until then K.I.S.S. :-)
Aww what a genuinely lovely comment! I absolutely love her lol she’s bloody hilarious. Can’t stop watching her stuff on TH-cam even after all these years.
Hugely impressive talk on being a whole and congruent human being that moved me to tears several times! I'd absolutely recommend it to all and in particular I'd hope for some, that anonymous moment of focus saves you too. I'm an admirer of Karen Dunbar the performer, the more I hear these powerful glimpses behind the veil; the more I'm glad to have the woman amongst us! 👏👏👏💐💐👍👍👍👍😍
I can totally relate..I think it's normal when a person is bullied and hurt to wanna 'rub peoples' noses in it' when they become successful..it's like revenge for their wounded inner child..that always topples you in the end as no one likes a tyrant..I'm now nurturing my compassion more..just learning how to stop people taking advantage of that tho😰
Well done Karen. It takes a big person to get up in front of people and admit your failings. I hope that your life is continuing to improve in all the ways that you hope for.
Love your bravery love your honesty, the wee quiver in your voice was all people needed to know how much doing this meant to you!! Our daughters grew up filming themselves in wigs and make up recreating your sketches,, so I know what living with you feels like lol,, we love you chic x
Just found out who she was......Netflix........Talented......Funny ..........and now hopefully Free.......I nice explanation that a lot of others go through. Hope you are well.
I believe it's totally up to the person whether if they want to use humour as a tool or a weapon! Everyone uses humour as a weapon when they are upset about something, so why bother being all woke about it?
just watched your programme on tv... its quite shocking... but just within the bounds of what I consider acceptable humor... I thought some sketches were better than others.. they were like shocking but you didn't pinpoint anyone so badly... for instance when the woman who went to the supermarket and said 'how much did you pay for the baby' joke .. and told everyone there... that sketch was funny.. I know you get lonely people who try to relate to others like that...and I am not sure if you mean this type of humor in the talk above or whether you were on about some more obvious attacks using humor.... but for instance I think it is ok to laugh at most everything.... unless someone has suffered and it would offend relatives or something... but I do think that self deprication is healthier than the arrogance some people carry blindly with them in normal society and they should learn the humility of their position and their limitations.. Humor is perhaps a way of reminding them of this.
Kaeren Dunbar-honest, authentic-so talented
This is beautiful and honest Karen. Proud of you and I wish you continued connection and joy with your self and others xxx

Karen u are beautiful and I love everything you do keep up the great work you do x
I'm a massive fan❤
Reminds me of Nicola sturgeon. Angry person with dead trauma. At least she has ability to self reflect.
So deep an realistic hat aff bravo >
I don’t understand why Karen lacks confidence - she’s brilliant.
Karen is wonderful.
Just found out who she was......Netflix........Talented......Funny ..........and now hopefully Free.......I nice explanation that a lot of others go through. Hope you are well.
Karen is one funny lady
Beautiful Karen
Beautiful 🥰
When she said she used humour to hurt people, is she referring to the Karen Dunbar show? That was much less than 20 years before this
I believe it's totally up to the person whether if they want to use humour as a tool or a weapon!
Everyone uses humour as a weapon when they are upset about something, so why bother being all woke about it?
That’s all I’ve got for today……..
GO AWAY NOW!
Humor is Glasgow is savage we don’t need guns ! Karen likes kipper
Frankie Boyle use comedy as a weapon.
if you call it comedy albus he's fkn shite it's just straight up public eye bullying
He uses his politics as a weapon. He uses comedy as a diversion.
Haw Miss day ye grin yer beans
I never see her be mean to anyone my gran spoke to her on phone my gran never to tell me was mean
Love her. She folows me on Twitter. Christ knows why!

If it's funny, it's funny. Anything else is secondary. Safe humour is boring.
Oh, I definitely do smell shite.
A karen eh
Cringe.
