    Lake Crashes, Cake Smashes & Lockouts - This Can't Be Real...with Brad

    This week on This Can’t Be Real with Brad, humanity once again proves we are absolutely not ready for adulthood. Brad breaks down the story of a man who trusted his GPS so much that he drove his car straight into a lake while his wife sat there questioning every life decision that led to that moment. Then things get even messier when a wedding reception turns into full-on WrestleMania after an argument escalates into flying cake, screaming relatives, and Uncle Randy apparently wearing buttercream like a crown. And finally, Brad reacts to a criminal mastermind who successfully broke into a store… only to accidentally lock himself inside and basically turn his robbery into an overnight stay next to the beef jerky aisle. Along the way, Brad rants about Apple Maps, old-school paper maps, drunk wedding uncles, Scooby-Doo villains, and why technology should never completely replace common sense. In the end, the “most bonkers” award goes to the GPS guy — because trusting a screen over literal water is next-level terrifying.

    Holy Spirit Energy - Your Weekly Calling

    In this powerful episode of Your Weekly Calling, Brad Lowe unpacks the meaning of Pentecost and challenges listeners to stop chasing a safe, surface-level faith and start pursuing true surrender to the Holy Spirit. Using Acts 2 as the foundation, Brad paints Pentecost not as a polished church service, but as a loud, messy, supernatural moment that completely transformed ordinary people. He emphasizes that the true miracle of Pentecost wasn’t just wind and fire—it was fearful people becoming bold through the power of the Holy Spirit. Brad contrasts “battery Christians,” who constantly run on temporary emotional highs, with Spirit-filled believers who stay deeply connected to God daily. Along the way, he shares the incredible true story of Evan Roberts and the Welsh Revival, where entire communities were transformed because people became desperate for God’s presence instead of just religious routine. With humor, honesty, and challenge, Brad pushes listeners to stop trying to fake spiritual fire through hype or appearances and instead make room for real connection with God through surrender, prayer, silence, and expectancy. The episode closes with a reminder that the Holy Spirit wasn’t sent merely to help believers survive spiritually—but to bring dead things back to life.

    Ready of Not 2: Here I Come (2026) - Movie Torture

    Brad breaks down a chaotic, over-the-top sequel where survivor Grace (Samara Weaving) goes from final girl to public enemy #1. After escaping the deadly game in the first movie, she’s immediately pulled back into an even bigger nightmare—this time facing a full council of elite, twisted families all competing to kill her for power. Teamed up (and handcuffed) with newcomer Faith (Katherine Newton), Grace is thrown into a brutal, rule-heavy death game that feels like rich people Hunger Games with zero logic and maximum insanity. Each family hunts differently, creating total chaos—like a group chat where no one agrees but everyone wants you dead. The movie escalates with wild kills, bizarre rules (break them and you literally explode), and a ridiculous “marriage loophole” where Grace can survive by marrying into one of the families. Instead, she fakes compliance and turns the tables—ending the entire system with nothing more than a pen. In the end, alliances collapse, the elites destroy themselves, and Grace doesn’t just survive—she wipes out the whole corrupt structure. Brad calls it bigger, crazier, and somehow better than the original, leaning fully into its madness.

    Dirt Pies, Bird Watching and Gas - The Floor Recap with Angie, Nicki and Brad

    This week on The Floor Recap, Angie and Brad are joined by former contestant Harley, and what starts as a recap of The Floor quickly turns into a debate about birds, pie, baseball movies, golf, and whether Eric is secretly building the greatest alliance in Floor history. The crew breaks down Ren's bold decision to stay and play as the whale, Carlos somehow ending up in bird watching despite looking like he'd rather be anywhere else, and one of the weirdest categories of the season: nature sounds. Along the way, Brad declares bird watching the most boring category ever created while Angie attempts to defend an entire hobby enjoyed by retired people across America. Things get even stranger when woodworking features the world's smallest doghouse, pie flavors sparks an unexpected dessert debate, and Harley shocks everyone by actually leaving the show to retrieve a real dirt pie from her kitchen after Brad jokingly asked her to prove it existed. Meanwhile, the panel continues tracking the frozen Eric saga as contestants carefully maneuver around his territory. Harley weighs in on whether she'd join the infamous "Eric Alliance," Brad continues his conspiracy theories, and Angie tries desperately to keep the show on the rails. Then disaster strikes when Angie temporarily disappears due to a power outage, leaving Brad and Harley to host alone while trying to remember what actually happened in the episode. What follows is pure chaos as the conversation spirals into baseball movies, sports debates, golf arguments, and enough random tangents to make even Rob Lowe question what's happening. 😂 By the end, nobody can agree whether golf is a sport, Brad reveals he once hosted a podcast about embarrassing bathroom stories, Harley survives being recruited into the Eric Alliance, and somehow The Floor gets recapped along the way.

    Half Apps and Felonies - This Can't Be Real...with Brad

    This week on This Can’t Be Real with Brad, the world somehow gets even dumber. Brad breaks down the story of a man who missed his flight and decided the logical next step was crawling through the airport luggage conveyor system like a rejected Mission Impossible stuntman wearing Crocs. Then things somehow get worse when a guy fakes a marriage proposal at a restaurant just to avoid paying for half-apps and a burger, emotionally traumatizing an entire Chili’s staff in the process. And finally, Brad reacts to a man who walked into a police station — voluntarily — to complain that the drugs he bought weren’t good enough. Yes. He essentially treated law enforcement like customer service and wanted a refund on illegal substances. Along the way, Brad goes on hilarious tangents about Crocs, Applebee’s half-apps, bad relationship decisions, fake romance operations, and why criminals should maybe stop involving police in their customer complaints. In the end, one story earns the “most bonkers” crown: the fake proposal guy, aka the only man in history to turn emotional manipulation into a dinner coupon strategy

    Just Like Heaven (2005) - Movie Torture

    Brad revisits Just Like Heaven and breaks down a rom-com that asks one simple question: what if your roommate is a ghost… and also kind of the boss of you? The movie follows David (Mark Ruffalo), a sad, grieving guy just trying to reset his life, who moves into a new apartment—only to find Elizabeth (Reese Witherspoon), a high-strung doctor, already “living” there… despite possibly not being alive. What starts as a bizarre roommate dispute quickly turns into a strange partnership as David realizes he’s the only one who can see her. Instead of doing the logical thing (leaving immediately), David sticks around—mostly because, as Brad points out, “she’s Reese Witherspoon.” The two go from arguing like a dysfunctional married couple to teaming up on a mission to uncover what happened to Elizabeth before it’s too late. Brad leans into the absurdity—calling out the wild decision-making (like casually living with a ghost), the awkward public conversations that make David look insane, and the ridiculous dynamic of being bossed around by someone who technically isn’t even on the lease. But underneath the chaos, he admits the movie has some charm, blending humor, emotion, and an unexpected love story. In the end, the mystery gets solved, Elizabeth comes back to life, and the film lands on its core message about connection—even if the journey there is weird.

    This Isn’t Home - Your Weekly Calling

    In this emotional and deeply personal episode of Your Weekly Calling, Brad Lowe explores the tension between temporary satisfaction and eternal hope, reminding listeners that this world was never meant to fully fulfill the human soul. Using Philippians 3:20 and Revelation’s promise of heaven, Brad challenges the constant chase for more money, comfort, success, and approval that still somehow leaves people feeling empty. Brad shares heartfelt memories of his grandmother, who became a mother figure to him after the loss of his mom. He reflects on singing Amazing Grace together, learning about faith through her example, and the overwhelming realization that she would be 117 years old today if she were still alive. That personal story leads into a powerful reminder that, for believers, death is not the end—it’s temporary separation and ultimately the doorway home to Jesus. The episode also highlights a famous quote from Billy Graham about being “more alive” after death, using it to paint a picture of heaven-minded faith that stays anchored even when life feels overwhelming. Brad contrasts people who build their identity around temporary things with those whose hope is rooted in eternity, encouraging listeners to stop obsessing over what fades and start investing in what lasts forever.
