Brent Terhune is not a redneck, but he plays one on Facebook

Brent Terhune is not the guy you think he is, if you've seen his viral redneck videos on Facebook.

He's not the guy in an American flag button-down and matching patriotic ball cap, spitting through a salty, twangy accent about how ticked off he is that football players kneel, or disputing whether Trump committed treason.

He's not the guy burning jerseys or Nikes in his Southside backyard, while holding his "emotional support beer" — a can of Hamm's.

He's not the guy who mispronounces a good chunk of the proper nouns in his videos — "Hucklebee" instead of "Huckabee" or "Kapperschnidt" instead of "Kaepernick" — and who signs off each tirade with "F--- the NFL and go Kotes!"

And even when you realize Terhune is a comedian satirically jabbing at internet commentators, he's still not the guy you'd expect.

The 29-year-old University of Indianapolis graduate and part-time writer for "The Bob & Tom Show" is far more mellow than his redneck alter-ego. He speaks softly, and could even be described as bit timid.

"Sometimes I'm shy," Terhune said. "I think you learn more if you listen, so usually I'll keep my mouth shut. But the other character has formed an opinion before I know anything that I'm talking about, of course, because that's the Internet in a nutshell, I think.

"He's brash, he's over the top, he's ironic and a complete contradiction of himself."

That character has racked up more than 10 million video views on Facebook and YouTube. Terhune's latest was his biggest video yet: A rant about Nike's Colin Kaepernick ad campaign, which has nearly 8 million views on Facebook.
