Haha be careful. “Bill Burrs long lost brother” is a touchy subject right now

Sure. this seems like a good summary.

TLDR: There was a rumor that burr and Billy Corgan of the smashing pumpkins were lost half brothers and Howie Mandell recently brought them together without Burr being made aware ahead of time and it seemed to annoy them both. He’s since made an apology
