South Beach Sessions - Tom Segura
5/7/20261 hr 12 min
Tom Segura is a powerhouse. The comedian, actor, bestselling author, host, & co-founder of Your Mom's House Studios tells Dan Le Batard about his early dreams of making movies - never imagining he'd become one of the biggest comedians of all-time. Segura reflects on discovering stand-up after moving to Los Angeles to pursue acting, grinding through years of simply trying to make rent, and how podcasts and Netflix specials transformed his career. Tom also shares hilarious stories about his filterless Peruvian mother, “Charo,” growing up between two cultures, surviving a near-fatal overdose at 19, starting a bakery in Austin, and the lessons he's learning now about balancing fatherhood with a neverending work schedule. His latest Netflix special - “Teacher” - is now streaming and season two of “Bad Thoughts” premieres this month on Netflix.
