John Holmberg
And by the way, Lost Boys Generational. If you try to pop that thing back in there now, you just realize how terrible it is. It's a bad movie. Dumb man.
Brady
Even when we were. I mean, when I was in college and my attorney brother was Cat, he's one of the vampires in it. And he told us about it and it came out, we're like, when did it come out?
Brett Vesley
Gerard McMahon.
John Holmberg
That's who sang it originally. 87 was. So you're in college in 87?
Brady
Yep.
John Holmberg
Okay.
Brett Vesley
And you know a lot of movie stars. Yeah, a lot of vampire. And any which way you can or.
John Holmberg
His brother stood and watched them film that was not in it, but watched him.
Brady
Was in the crowd.
John Holmberg
Yeah, well, you don't know that for sure because you guys never had. Right.
Brady
He's never go.
John Holmberg
You. You've always told the story that he's gotta understand. Never asked any other questions. And then nowhere did the family ever sit down and say, my brother was in that.
Brady
Like, really, it's no big deal, John.
John Holmberg
I guess not.
Brady
Clearly happens to us all the time.
John Holmberg
But it doesn't. And that's the crazy part. It was the one off story that nobody cared to hear. Tom came busting in there, mom, dad, I'm in a movie. So who is it? We do home movies all the time. Boy didn't know when it happened. I said, this family didn't sit down and watch Any which way but loose to watch your brother.
Brady
Oh yeah. We went to the movie theater and watched. But we didn't look for Tom.
John Holmberg
Well, he was in it.
Brady
We knew he was full of it.
John Holmberg
Oh, God. But yet you tell the story years later on his behalf.
Brady
He tells it.
John Holmberg
No, you do. I've never talked to him about it. Yeah, I wouldn't know about it. I don't think it.
Brady
You know, the fight was going on in Jackson's sake.
John Holmberg
Here we go.
Brady
And they're filming it.
Brett Vesley
Was it Any which way Blues or.
John Holmberg
Any which way you can sequel? Yeah, but you said he was in it.
Brady
Whatever. The Jackson Hole fight, it doesn't matter. But if you're like us when we went to.
John Holmberg
You're getting on a Brady Store.
Brady
Went to LA and you saw the filming of that. Whatever. Criminal minds.
John Holmberg
Right, But I wasn't in it. But no, we weren't.
Brady
I know.
John Holmberg
Right.
Brady
But I don't know if Tommy, you know, you're gonna call him. You know what?
John Holmberg
I did this before and.
Brady
No, he said he was. I mean, he. That crowd's so big.
John Holmberg
But you told us he was in it. That's how we knew. Oh, my God. Your brother was in that.
Brady
And then what was going on back. And they're filming that scene.
John Holmberg
Right. But he wasn't in it. He was hanging around nearby.
Brady
He got his SAG card out.
John Holmberg
He did not. He got nothing from it. And then I said, oh, what scene? Where. Oh, and you didn't know him. Like, the family didn't, like, have that. Your brother's in it. And then it turned into being in it to being in the city.
Brady
My brother was there when they were filming.
John Holmberg
Right? That's different.
Brady
Yeah. And I pro. And he probably said that. And I. And I took it to. He was in that.
John Holmberg
Right. You pushed it. Yeah. You tried to sell it to us that he was the guy that Clint Eastwood fought. Never happened. I never met this guy. See him anywhere in there. Was your brother any.
Brady
I've never really looked at still shots.
John Holmberg
Yeah. It's all I done. Yeah. I mean, I'm going to.
Brady
People scan through some of them.
John Holmberg
People tape the news when they're in the background of the news camera. The Bogan family's like, yeah, any which way but loose. No reason to look into that. Just believe him. Your parents didn't have the thought that people would lie to them. So whenever you say, oh, my brother was in that.
Brady
He was.
Brett Vesley
I don't think maybe that's him.
John Holmberg
They just. Yeah. Is that him right there? Is that him with his back turned in the.
Brady
No, butt's too big.
John Holmberg
It could be a guy that's just standing there with his back turn. God, this. I forgot how bad this movie was. Terrible movie. Anyway, he was one of the black widows.
Brett Vesley
Oh, here we go.
John Holmberg
There's more fight scene as Tom in that picture. You're actually looking. This is disturbing to me that you have never, never once known where your brother is in a movie, but yet you tell the story of it. And now we're showing you pictures like, is he in this shot? It.
Brady
There's still shots of him, my brother and Scott Sager.
John Holmberg
All right. Nobody cares. I'm gonna kill him. We'll be singing Brady's Breakfast with Brady for this night of the singing dead. If only he and Brad Perry could just be head on collision.
Brady
Breakfast with.
John Holmberg
Clint and Brady and Brady. Brady and. And Perry would super collide out their Windshields. And Brady would make the joke. You got your chocolate in my. And then they'd be dead. And I'd be like, I'm hoping for nothing. And then I'd call Tom and go, were you in any way, which you can. I don't remember the movie. And he goes, no. Brady always told that lie. I'm like, okay, thanks. This one question would clear this all up. There's. This is. I mean, you're worse than a politician. Was he in it? Well, he called him and asked him. And then he calls him and asked him.
Brady
Corrected. He was there.
John Holmberg
Okay, but that's not the. And that's okay. Don't jeez me. You start the story with your brothers in a movie, and then later I'm like, what part? Oh, we don't know. How do you not know? Your brother comes home, he says he was in. Well, he was in the movie. He was in the area. Well, that's not in the movie. There's a different story now. Did the family, like, watch for it? Oh, no. We never even took the time to look for him. Like, what the hell is the point.
Brady
Of this story if you didn't earn anything? We're not watching.
John Holmberg
What's the point of the story then? Why you bringing.
Brady
Kind of cool is there when the fight scene was going on.
John Holmberg
And yet in the same. It was kind of cool.
Frank Caliendo Promoter
Were you there?
John Holmberg
No. And. But I'm not telling people. I was. I'm not. I'm not trying.
Brady
He was.
John Holmberg
I'm not trying to. Okay, but by your own story at the end, you goes, it was no big deal. We don't talk about it. Well, then why are you talking about it? I want to bring up something that might elicit conversation. And then I got no answers.
Brady
There's only 2,000 other people that were there.
John Holmberg
Okay, then why do you tell us about.
Brady
He was one of the 2000s.
John Holmberg
You keep saying it's a thing, and then you diminish it to like. You can't see him, though. So it's not. It's like it never happened. Well, then don't talk about it.
Brady
You brought it up.
John Holmberg
No, I brought up how stupid it was, and you started to talk about him being in it again. And then Brett shows one slide and your finger banging the. Is that him? Is he in this? You should know this. Share the story. You know, I met President Reagan once, where as I was just in the air. He was around. I didn't. It didn't happen. Why did you tell the story?
Brady
Brooke McCarter was a vampire in law school.
John Holmberg
Oh, that's true. And nobody knows who that is in the garlic bathtub. And the guy was an actual actor who was in the movie. No, he was. And he was trying to be an actor. And he got the role of dude who dies.
Brady
Yep.
John Holmberg
He's got a credit. Oh, he's got a credit, not an extra. Oh, yeah, actually, one of the vampires. That's different than your brother being in Wyoming during the filming of something.
Brady
That's where. That's the only place we looked to see if we got cracked.
John Holmberg
You know, I was. I was in Arizona when they filmed Starman. So technically I've kind of in it. I was on earth when they did Reservoir Dog. So in a weird way, you and Quentin, sort of an extra. Why are you doing this? Brett? Yeah, you're next. Feldman. Is that him?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
That's your buddy.
Brady
Yep.
John Holmberg
He's got speaking parts. See? And that's. That's called acting. And that's called. Oh, I know that guy. Your brother being in Wyoming during the filming of a movie is not something you start. My brother was in that movie. Because the next thing you're gonna get from the recipient of this conversation is, oh, yeah? What part? Oh, no, not actually on the film part. Okay, so he wasn't in the movie. Yeah. What's going on?
Brady
You know what's kind of cool? My brother's filming of the pier in this movie.
John Holmberg
Is he? You don't know that.
Brady
Midway.
John Holmberg
You're a liar. Get your own accomplishments and start telling your own stories. Cause your stories about other people are false and annoying.
Brady
Rest in peace, Brooke McCarter.
John Holmberg
He's dead.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
What'd he die of? Acid bath. No, ironic.
Brady
Yeah, garlic bath.
John Holmberg
He died in a garlic bath? Heart attack or something?
Brady
Cancer.
John Holmberg
Oh, geez Louise. That's depressing. Your stories suck. Horrible stories. These. They end with that. And this movie. I forgot it. Oh, Lost Boys is terrible. You're right though.
Brett Vesley
It's a generation.
John Holmberg
You know, back in the day.
Frank Caliendo Promoter
Oh, it was great.
John Holmberg
But watching it now, it's like. It was like worse than Twilight as far as vampire movies go. But at least Twilight tried to have a story. This thing was just terrible. It was basically for every eighth grade girls to get a little bit moist on it. Like as they kind of explored their nethers for the first couple years of their having hair. Anyway, that's just my theory.
Larry McFeely
This is Larry McFeely. And we all know August in Arizona is brutal. We're talking triple digit temps that'll melt your flip flops. But Toyota trucks don't sweat it. The tacoma tundra and 4Runner are built to handle that kind of heat. I've taken Tundras across the valley and up into the mountains. No issues, no drama, just pure performance in the blazing sun. Right now is the national sales event at your valley Toyota dealers. So it's the best time to gear up whether you're escaping the hot weather or working in it. These trucks are made for the Arizona heat. Visit your valley toyota dealer or valleytoyotadealers.com toyota let's go places.

John Holmberg
It's John Holmberg here from the morning sickness and it's time to talk about TVs Doug Hopkins of my home group and Doug hopkins.com I tell you about the house down the street from me that has had a for sale sign in the yard for three months now. In fact, it's the fourth different sign. They've got a new realtor all the time. I do know this though. They wouldn't be dealing with all this stress if they'd have just called TVs Doug Hopkins because he's more than a guy buying your house. He makes an offer for your house, cash. As is, you don't have to do anything. The deal is over. So all you got to do is start the process online@doug hopkins.com or sing Hol's Morning Sickness. Now on the other side, Brady, did you get your generator back?
Brett Vesley
You knew the answer to that.
John Holmberg
I didn't ask about the blowjob. Did you get your generator back? No. No. Neither thing has happened for Brady's man. It's not his birthday. Shouldn't have to do it on his off days. That's just. That's a gift that keeps giving. I'm not going to put that kind of pressure on you ladies, but at least the birthday For God's sake. I'm not going to ask you about the other thing, but I'm just assuming. Good job. That'll happen later tonight. No. Generator didn't call you back? No. No. Text back.
Brady
No, but that's.
John Holmberg
Stop making excuses if you're not making excuses. Did you write down about it?
Brady
I'll get this thing fixed.
John Holmberg
No. You act like you're in control of this. You came to us to fix it. You haven't done a thing for two years. Get your generator right. And it's bothered you the whole time. But it's your generator and it's your generator.
Brady
We talked about it yesterday. I'm like, well, maybe I should ask again.
John Holmberg
You were. But was he not bothered yesterday? He's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, it bothers you. You just said you weren't, so stop flip flopping. And did you write down what I told you to write or are you being coy? Emergency. I need to talk to you.
Brett Vesley
You know.
Brady
No, I told you.
John Holmberg
No wonder the guy didn't get back to you. He's. What?
Brady
He's done that before? I mean, like, if he. Sometimes he goes out of town. International travel.
John Holmberg
Still don't get that.
Brett Vesley
Do you answer your phone when you're out of town?
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brady
No.
Brett Vesley
You're lying.
John Holmberg
Dude, too. You. Constantly.
Brady
Not internationally.
John Holmberg
You don't travel internationally that much. And yes, it's been a while. And yes, you do. I've gotten several texts from you from Switzerland, one of the most you've seen. I have. From your chalet. But I've also act like you're.
Brady
I've also.
Frank Caliendo Promoter
The grid.
Brady
Not every day.
John Holmberg
It is.
Brady
Sometimes you just.
John Holmberg
I got constant barrage of texts of you with the Russian businessman that you were meeting constantly at the face of the Matterhorn and his chalet. He's seen it so many times in person. Yes, when he was blowing horns with Swiss Miss. That's the worst excuse I've ever heard anybody give for somebody that they're. You're enabling this nonsense. So what if he's out of town? Sometime through the last 24 hours, he was awake in the daytime and looked at his phone and said, oh, Brady's texting me and he says he needs to talk. I should at least text him back and say, hey, I'm in Saudi Arabia. What time's good.
Brady
He's had some medical issues, too.
John Holmberg
This is new. So he may be dead. Yeah. So the man actually may be dead and you don't know it. Generator. I don't care.
Brady
It's the last you know, I. I've had it once or twice.
John Holmberg
Where it. Brett's right.
Brady
I've text him a couple times.
John Holmberg
What's his widow's number? We got to get your generator. But I don't care about.
Brady
I don't have her.
John Holmberg
Ah, well, we got to get on that. You got to start finding that.
Brady
But he was like. You had no idea I was in the twice he was in the hospital. Very.
John Holmberg
No one contacts you if he does.
Brady
I mean, I. I know his I now. I'll reach out to his brother.
John Holmberg
Yeah, but his brother wouldn't text you and say, hey, our pal is dying. No, he wouldn't tell you. You're not in. Okay. You're not in that realm of closeness.
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
It would be business with the guy, though.
Brady
Yeah. I've done something. No.
John Holmberg
Oh, okay. I thought you were still doing something stuff. All right. Either way, get your goddamn generator back. And Brett's right. I like that. I like that approach. It's like, oh, he might be dead. Call his widow and get your generator back. That's exactly right.
Brett Vesley
He's not using it anymore.
John Holmberg
Yeah. And now the widow, you know, she's. She's coming to some money. Cuz if he's dead, that's insurance. That's the inheritance.
Brett Vesley
She could buy you a new generator.
John Holmberg
Get that 25 grand he owes you too. Not for nothing, ma', am, but sorry for your loss. Now, speaking of losses, I'm down one generator and 25k. And that's because of your corpse over there, beautiful thing.
Brett Vesley
You know who he loaned it to? The lady?
John Holmberg
Yeah. Do you know her? I do not, man. Wasn't the party dildo, was it? The party dillo? Is that what he called the party dillo? Yeah, something like that.
Brady
It was just, you know, it was just one of those things where you're. You trust the guy? Basically. Still do.
John Holmberg
Someone said. Is this a good question to ask? Because it sounds like it over the air. Is Brady afraid of this guy? Sounds like a lot of excuses on why this person wouldn't get back to him and you wouldn't do it for anyone else. Are you a little afraid of him?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Are you?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Is he kind of business scary?
Brady
Yeah.
John Holmberg
Is he. Does he. Does he strike a little fear?
Brady
No. It's funny. It's just one of those things that this particular thing is such a little deal compared to what do to it, and it just is.
John Holmberg
Did you text yesterday at all? I want my generator back.
Brady
Yeah, those words I said, can I borrow a generator?
John Holmberg
No, that's A joke. I want my generator back.
Brady
Reach out.
John Holmberg
No, no, you reach out by saying, hey, dude, how you doing? I want my generator back. What can we do to get that going? I need it. That's how you tell. That's what. That's the. The call to action. Sense of emergency that he'll be like.
Brett Vesley
Oh, now you just tell me, I want my goddamn generator.
John Holmberg
Yeah. And then now it's like, hey, I guess you're not contacting me.
Brady
Me.
John Holmberg
I want my goddamn generator back. Yeah. Give me your phone. Give me.
Brady
It is at that point.
John Holmberg
Yes, it is, but you're not getting anything handled. The man won't even return your call. I'm annoyed by this. I'm. I'm going over there. I want my goddamn generator back and I want my money back. I want to talk to you about this. Anyway, so the generator guy still hasn't got people emails like crazy this morning. You get it back? What happened? Did he call? No, no, nothing happened.
Brady
Appreciate the therapist that emailed.
John Holmberg
You had a therapist?
Brady
Yeah, he reached out.
John Holmberg
What did he say? Stop being a get your generator back sign. Sigmund Freud. It's not on the docket there. Yeah, I gotta. I got tons of people just saying they'll help out. They'll do whatever. The generator guy is.
Brady
Josh is his name, and he said, I'm a therapist, and one that I can tell all. All my patients is that you need to establish proper communication boundaries.
John Holmberg
Yes.
Brady
It doesn't mean you need to be a jerk about or a hole. You do, however, have to make people acutely aware that you. You're willing to put up with.
John Holmberg
You're not willing to put up with.
Brady
And what you're not willing to put up.
John Holmberg
Yeah.
Brady
In doing so, people won't use you.
John Holmberg
They won't take advantage of your kindness. Please have some chutzpah balls, Brady. That's Jew balls. He said, put some Jew balls on and call this guy and say, hey, that's enough. You're not respect. His. His ghosting you on your text is like, I'll get to him when I feel like I don't have time for this. I'm out of town. He knows that. You don't know that.
Brady
I know it's your part. I know it's part of your job to go along with the jokes on the show.
John Holmberg
No.
Brady
But you need to address this issue.
John Holmberg
Thank you. The therapist.
Brady
It's gonna keep happening.
John Holmberg
Yes.
Brady
Love you, man. Keep the laughs coming. I wish you nothing but the best.
John Holmberg
That was free therapy from a guy and he couldn't be more right. Grow some balls. Your therapist online said. And this isn't part of the show. This isn't Brady going. I'll go along with it. Brady needs to go. You need to text that guy right now and go. Okay. No response tells me I need to be a little firmer. I need my generator back. It's been two years. This is re goddamn diculous. Please respond. Let him know you got a couple of nuts hanging down past your knees and you're not gonna get kicked in them anymore.
Brady

Episode: Brady Still Claiming His Brother Was In Every Which Way But Loose
Hosts: John Holmberg, Brady Bogen, Brett Vesely, Dick Toledo
Main Theme:
This episode dives into the enduring and increasingly suspect story told by co-host Brady about his brother’s alleged appearance as an extra in the Clint Eastwood movie Every Which Way But Loose (and/or its sequel), and the hosts’ relentless but playful needling over Brady’s inability to confirm any details. The discussion expands into topics of family storytelling, myth-making, and personal follow-through—transitioning later into Brady’s ongoing hassle retrieving a generator he loaned out. Throughout, the episode is a showcase of the team’s quick-wit banter and refusal to let each other off the hook.

This episode is classic Holmberg’s Morning Sickness: a bit about nothing turns into a masterclass of sarcastic comedy, a parable about family storytelling and personal assertiveness, and a group of friends refusing to let each other lie unchallenged or let life’s little annoyances slide. The rapidly shifting but always-connected topics comb through Brady’s embarrassing movie myth, his festering generator problem, and the universal need to sometimes, finally, speak up and take action—with the audience, and even therapists, getting in on the fun.
If you love radio that blends sharp mockery, life lessons, and recurring inside jokes, this is a definitive episode.
