North America’s hardest throwing comedian ----> 88mph with movement, one-liners, a change-up, crowd work and years of moxie. Beat Rice in college baseball, also got a win over UCLA, did Kilborn many times, coached at Arizona State, booked four pilots and five test shows, worked out with the Texas Rangers in 2006 (no media) and have done Karoke at Jason Patric’s house with Ray Liotta looking on. What else... ----> My family, they were the Pioneering Jews of the Southwest. Grandma was born in Las Vegas, New Mexico on May 2nd, 1909. Dad in Phoenix, Mom in Detroit. Mother’s father ran the famed Fox Theater in Motown, I have playbills from the 30’s to prove.

from....
I've been known to do comedy. I also host functions with a "Touch of Laughter" - (school, church, youth center, industrial park, whatever).
Associated with FOX Sports for 5 years, assuming a hands-on roll in over 1,000 television productions.
The Best Damn Sports Show, The Man Show, FSN's Poker Dome Challenge and Talk Show with Spike Feresten are just a few of the many programs requesting my services. On several teams in Hollywood I fill the much coveted Wild Card position.
I've done Stand-Up Comedy for a plethora of broadcasts...
Premium Blend back in the day, Last Comic Standing (season 4, episode one, fifteen minutes in, ninety seconds out), The Late Late Show on CBS with Craig Kilborn three times (five counting re-runs), Late Friday on NBC, Funny Money on The Game Show Network, Snap Judgment on Court TV, etc.
Lately I've been sharing my services with G4, you know, the network. Luckily I've been able to penetrate this underground community of kids, geeks and others just like me.
Welcome to the Internet - I'm buffering!
The Sports List on FSN gets me spotted in public (I did memorable talking head commentary) - also my voice is appearing on a weekly basis hosting Stump Stevens! via Playboy Morning Radio Sirius 198. Additionally, bi-monthly calls into Sporting News Radio.
Roasting is making a big comeback. Sometimes I get the nod. Recently, Tom Arnold, Ed McMahon, Heidi Fliess, Bob Saget, James Cameron and the Texas Rangers have been on the wrong end of my ribbing.

And commercials. Twice I've been on hold (industry talk). 7-up and Verizon.
Was a decent pitcher in high school and college. Still throwing, at least for a few more years. Can hit with power too. Freshman campaign at Arizona State, struck out 17 against Lower Columbia Community College. Junior Varsity, pre-season. Please don't forget, I was in uniform at the 1993 College World Series in Omaha.
Had a zany TV show up in Seattle back in the mid-90's - The Brody and Teina Manu Hour influenced thousands - Sold t-shirts for the SuperSonics at Key Arena. Actually was fun, free games! - Layne Staley of Alice in Chains did drugs in my apartment complex (downstairs, next to laundry room).
Tour Guide at Radio City Music Hall in New York City - I dealt with Rockettes and Rug Rats - also ran The Brody Stevens Festival of Laughter at Eureka Joe on 22nd/5th in the Flatiron District - I indirectly effected Silicon Alley, plus I lived in Williamsburg.
Zach Galifianakis hired a guy named me to work at his VH-1 talk show in 2002.
Several "friends of Brody" write for Family Guy and
Judah Friedlander endorses my craft, he's cool.
Crowd work is top notch, in addition to the occasional brush with ESP.
And finally, my drumming is getting better.
All being said, still live at home with my sister, surviving check to check with less than a $1,000 to my name.
Who's up for lunch?
