John G. Brennan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John G. Brennan, aka Johnny B. is an American actor, film writer, and voice actor. He is a member of the Jerky Boys prank call duo, with Kamal Ahmed, formed in 1989 and split-up in 2000.
John Brennan is more recently known for his voice work in the animated series Family Guy (1999-present) where he performs the voices of Mort Goldman (whose voice and mannerisms are almost identical to that of his Jerky Boys character Sol Rosenberg) and Horace the bartender of the Drunken Clam. In 1995 Brennan wrote and starred in a motion picture portraying the antics of the Jerky Boys called Jerky Boys: The Movie. In 1997, Johnny appeared in the Mariah Carey music video Honey.
According to Artie Lange of The Howard Stern Show, The Jerky Boys broke up due to Brennan's "extreme stage fright" that prevented the duo from taking their act on the road.
In 2007, Brennan released the first solo release under the Jerky Boys name, titled Sol's Rusty Trombone. It was the first Jerky Boys release since 2001.
