Humorist Brody Stevens was found dead Friday after an apparent suicide at his home in Los Angeles.
The security forces confirmed to TMZ … Brody was found hanging at his home Friday afternoon shortly after 1 pm.
Brody – who co-created his own Comedy Central series, "Brody Stevens: Enjoy It!" with his friend Zach Galifianakis – Had struggled with mental health issues in the past. He was hospitalized in 2011 after suffering a bipolar episode.
He was a mainstay of major comedy events like the Montreal and Vancouver comedy festivals – and just two days ago he was at the Festival of Friendship in Burbank.
Later in the evening, he played a set – which seems to have been the last – at the famous Comedy Store on the Sunset Strip.
Brody has also had several roles in movies, such as "The Hangover" and "The Hangover II".
He was also a baseball fan. He studied at the University of Arizona until he injured his elbow.
We have had a lot of fun run-ins with Brody over the years – he always turned it on for our camcorders.
However, the last time we saw it, in 2018, we had a serious conversation with him about Kanye West and mental health.
Brody was 48 years old.
