Brad Bonar

Brad Bonar and the 1Degree of Separation comedy team deliver a one-of-a-kind mental health and suicide prevention experience that combines clean comedy, authentic storytelling, and practical life-saving tools. Rather than a traditional lecture, audiences experience an engaging event that breaks down stigma, encourages connection, and creates conversations people genuinely remember. What makes the program unique is the team approach — professional comedians who understand how to connect with audiences while addressing serious topics in a relatable and approachable way. Through humor, vulnerability, and the organization’s “5 Questions” framework, attendees learn how to recognize emotional distress, start meaningful conversations, and potentially intervene before a crisis escalates. Organizations choose 1Degree of Separation because the program is impactful, memorable, and actionable. Audiences laugh together, connect together, and leave better equipped to support the people around them — both personally and professionally.
