Segura has become one of the top comedic acts in the country. In addition to numerous clubs, he has performed at Montreal’s Just For Laughs Comedy Festival, the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, the Comedy Festival in Las Vegas, the South Beach Comedy Festival and the Hong Kong Comedy Festival.
“I like joking about inappropriate behavior,” Segura said in an interview with AXS. “As soon as I see something that’s an unconventional, unorthodox way to react or behave, it’s always going to be somewhere in my act.”
Segura can be seen in the 2018 comedy “Instant Family” opposite Mark Wahlberg and Rose Byrne. His television credits include “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” “Conan,” “Workaholics,” “Happy Endings,” “The Late Late Show,” “Comedy Central Presents: Tom Segura,” “Mash Up” and “How to Be a Grown Up.” Additionally, his hit podcast, Your Mom’s House, which he co-hosts with his wife, comedian Christina Pazsitzky, was a finalist for best comedy podcast at the Stitcher Awards and profiled by VICE.
Segura regularly appears on radio shows and comedy podcasts, such as The Joe Rogan Experience and WTF with Marc Maron. His fourth hourlong stand-up album, “Mostly Stories,” sat atop the iTunes and Billboard comedy charts for two weeks. His first two albums, “Thrilled” and “White Girls with Cornrows,” debuted at No. 1 and continue to play heavily on satellite radio and streaming-music platforms.
Segura is originally from Cincinnati, Ohio, and currently lives in Los Angeles.
