Fans of popular YouTube star Tana Mongeau have expressed their displeasure with Brittany Broski’s reaction to allegations against podcaster Cody Ko. The controversy erupted in June 2024, during an episode of Mongeau’s ‘Cancelled’ podcast, when she revealed sensitive details about a past romantic encounter.
During the podcast episode, Tana Mongeau was asked an intimate question about the size of her romantic partners. Her response was unexpected: “Oh my God, no one look at me… Cody Ko,” she confessed. The revelation that she had been only 17 years old at the time of their encounter with the then-25-year-old Cody Ko, co-host of the ‘Tiny Meat Gang Podcast,’ left the audience in shock. Tana herself seemed stunned by her admission, covering her mouth in disbelief.

This revelation has significant legal implications, as their encounter would have been illegal in California, where Cody resides. The age difference placed their interaction in a troubling legal and ethical context, given that Tana was a minor at the time.
On July 15, Brittany Broski, host of ‘The Broski Report’ podcast and a longtime fan of Cody Ko, addressed the allegations on her Instagram story. In addition to unfollowing Cody on Instagram, Brittany expressed her dismay, stating, “I’m crushed to learn about the Cody allegations. If it’s proven to be true, then it’s extremely upsetting as a collaborator and longtime fan.” She added, “I find all of this disturbing, inappropriate, and just flat out disappointing.”

Brittany’s response sparked a wave of reactions on social media, with many fans questioning her decision to comment on the situation. One user on X (formerly Twitter) exclaimed, “Why am I seeing more about Brittany Broski than Cody Ko omfg. I don’t care about her, I want to know what the actual predator is gonna do.” Another user added, “Idk who Cody is but I’ve never liked Brittany Broski. I always thought she just did too much in her videos…”

The controversy has also reignited discussions about the responsibilities of creators and the dynamics of power in relationships involving minors. One user passionately stated, “Fck Cody Ko and every creator who has ever abused their power over someone younger and smaller and fck everyone who is victim blaming and shaming Tana Mongeau.”
Despite the strong reactions from both the public and fellow celebrities, Cody Ko has yet to make any public comments regarding the allegations. The internet continues to buzz with speculation and debate, as fans await further developments in this unfolding story.
