This week, I sit down with local comedian, show runner, and roommate Derek McFarland! Derek has been involved in the comedy scene for over half a decade now, and has featured/opened/hosted for some of the biggest names in comedy. His persistence and passion towards comedy has come off strong the day I met him.
Derek ran arguably the most popular open mic Phoenix has ever seen for over 4 years, which recently got shut down due to some very sensitive sallies. We discuss that, his time as a comedian, and many other things. Be sure to follow him on Instagram, and add him on Facebook to keep up with all his ventures. Below, is a link from Phoenix Voyage Magazine article on Derek McFarland, which might even give you some more insight on who this man is! Enjoy!

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
