Шаблон:Short description Brian Sack (born 1968) is an American writer and actor. From 2011–2014 he was the host of The B.S. of A. with Brian Sack, a sketch comedy show on TheBlaze television network.[1]

He is the author of three books. In the Event of My Untimely Demise (HarperCollins, 2008)[2] consisted of tongue-in-cheek advice for his new sons. His second book, The B.S. of A.: A Primer in Politics for the Incredibly Disenchanted (Simon & Schuster, 2011),[3] inspired the television show he hosted. His third book, The United States vs. Santa Claus: The Untold Story of the Actual War on Christmas (Simon & Schuster, 2013),[4] was a satire co-authored with B.S. of A. show runner Jack Helmuth.

Sack served as a contributing author to the New York Times bestseller Arguing With Idiots: How to Stop Small Minds and Big Government (Threshold, 2009) [5] as well as Cowards: What Politicians, Radicals, and the Media Refuse to Say (Threshold, 2009) [6]

As a voice talent Sack has appeared in numerous commercials and audiobooks as well as the video game Grand Theft Auto IV.

Sack and musician John Mayer collaborated on a comedy short titled The Paul Reddy Show. The half-hour comedy appears on Mayer's Heavier Things DualDisc. Sack's clueless "Paul Reddy" character was based on PBS mainstay Charlie Rose and peppers Mayer with outlandish and often absurd questions.[9]
