Obvious keep: A popular and well-known stand-up comedian; a Google News search shows a dozen articles from the last month alone. One example: "Brian Regan Preps for New Netflix Special with Aspen Tour Stop", The Aspen Times (Feb 6, 2020). Lots more. -- Toughpigs (talk) 05:01, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep - Found coverage in NPR and the Wall Street Journal, both reliable sources. Passes GNG and AfD is not cleanup. Hog Farm (talk) 05:25, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
strong keep: strange that this has been slated for deletion. One look at the article shows he is notable. Locochoko (talk) 12:23, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep: This has to be a WP:SNOW keep right? Regan clearly passes WP:ENTERTAINER. He has had multiple standup specials and has even been featured in Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. Bait30 ^Talk? 20:38, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep I'm not going to mince words like the rest of the vote!s; WP:IDONTLIKEIT isn't a proper deletion rationale. Obviously notable comedian just by name glance alone. Nate • (chatter) 01:40, 24 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: It's unclear what the exact policy reason for the nomination is. Dflaw4 (talk) 04:24, 25 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
