At age 19, he overdosed on GHB and fell into a short coma.

Segura began stand-up comedy shortly after graduating from Lenoir-Rhyne University.

On episode 568 of Your Mom's House, he mentioned he was doing comedy in the evenings for the first few years while holding down other daytime jobs.

Segura released a book in 2022 titled I'd Like to Play Alone, Please, a collection of humorous essays.

He said about the book: "This is not a memoir, this is not an autobiography. It's a collection of stories, which is an extension of what I do as a comedian, which is I tell stories, a lot."

Segura is from Cincinnati, Ohio, and has lived in Minneapolis, Minnesota; Mequon, Wisconsin; Vero Beach, Florida; and Los Angeles, California.

He has two sisters named Jane and Maria and is related to the neurobiologist and podcast host Andrew D. Huberman.
