It is a free comedy Friday today, and we are
very excited to have our next guest hanging out with
us in studio. Derek Stroup is going to be performing
at the American Comedy Company this weekend. Got a couple
of shows tonight, a couple of shows tomorrow night. Derek,
Welcome to San Diego, my friend.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Hey, I'm so excited to be here.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
I know. Oh, I can tell by the accident you're
from New York or yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
Yeah, trying to pick that up. You know what's funny.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
I live in New York City, I really do. Nobody
believes me there, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, I live in
Queens and talking about it on stage. But yeah, when
you sound like me in New York City, everybody thinks here.
I mean I told the guy the bodegas like I
live here, and he's like, enjoy your visit.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
No doubt. That's crazy. So where are you originally?
Speaker 3 (00:46):
I'm originally from Huntsvial, Alabama, no doubt.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Yeah, and then I lived I lived in Denver for
ten years. Okay, I just moved to New York City
probably like nine months ago, eight months.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Ago, and the accident just doesn't go sticking you know.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
What's funny is the accent's going a lot if anybody
stop it to people really from Alabama, it's it's it's
so much thicker than like I've got like an Oklahoma,
Texas type.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Alabama is deep in the south.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
My friends, I sometimes forget and then I call home
and they're like, man, your TikTok's going right, And I'm.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Like, oh, yeah, I am from there. That's crazy.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Yeah, so yeah, my accent doesn't seem that much to me,
but it definitely.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
It jumps out and like being from the West coast,
and I hope this isn't okay. So we were chatting
off the air, you know, the Southern accent super strong.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
And then you have.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
A cup next to you and you picked it up
to put it to your mouth like a normal human
does to drink something. And I, for some reason, my
brain thought you're dipping and you're spitting in.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
The then and then I saw you drink, and I'm.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Like, I'm sorry, no, I love that. I love how like.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
And when I was on stage last night, I looked
at the crowd and I go, how crazy, I go,
it's a real Southern person in front of y'all. Some
of y'all just watched Forrest Gump and wrote, I'm here here.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
I am you know, we're no for the zoo here
in San Diego. It is like, you know, we're we're
now observing you.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
And I don't And I don't hate that because I'm
much faster and quicker than you know, and and like
the accent always kind of sets me up in a
good way.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
You know, when we're talking recently about Southern accents are
the most there was some study done that they're the
most like welcoming and warming, and you know, we feel
I feel good with you.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Yeah, yeah, I mean it is a weird time, you know,
are are It's a weird.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Time to have a Southern accent. People are are projecting right.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Yeah, you just heard, you know, assume something about you and.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Me a sip of coffee. She's like, I thought you
were gonna spit in. Yeah, I get. I mean I do.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
I address that on stage, and I like to I'm
not I'm not in you know, I'm a pretty self
aware man in New York City. I do this kind
of quick joke up top of the cellar where I go.
You know, when you talk like me, if you ask
if we're in Chinatown, you better be right, because if
you're wrong, nobody believes it's an accent. And it's a
good heat check for the room because if you're listening
(03:21):
to every word, there's no punching down. I didn't say anything.
It's a funny observation. But if you just are triggered
by my accent, I'll see you cross my arms and
I know, Okay, you're not hearing the joke. You're not
hearing the jokes.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
You're here in the accent.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
So I'm I'm smart enough on stage to where I
know certain jokes that I send out there, the reactions
I get are kind of me feeling the room because
I can't tell. In some jokes, I go, no, that
joke has no victims, and you are looking for victims
because I sound the way I did.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
It's so wild to go only comedy show looking to
almost be offended. But that's why of where we're at
now with society and whatever. Yeah, and then you know,
with your accent, I get what you're saying.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
You like, it's just and and more of where I
would run into that. You know, if somebody comes out
to the shows this weekend, they're they're consciously buying a
ticket to an act that they're for the most part,
they know what they're gonna see you mention. I do
say that comedy is the only art form where people
will show up and not know exactly what they're gonna
People would never do that with music. I sugar, go
three tickets and a music hall and go, I hope
(04:27):
it's jazz.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
You would know.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Sometimes people go by chicken fingers and they go, let's
see what this guy's want talk about. But for the
but those the type of feeling where I'm talking about
reading a crowd, and that's that's going to be like
at the cellar and pop in spots where people aren't
necessarily knowing they're gonna see me. But when people are
buying tickets, they know that. You know, they're they're seeing
a certain act, sure you know. And And when I
(04:52):
say I do Southern comedy, I mean I I do
any type of comedy, but with my accent, I can't
run from it. It just makes it southern p my
point of view. But it's much quicker and much smarter
than that. And that's why I like to have fun
with it. And and I kind of like when the
crowd comes in, you know, on their heels, already making assumptions.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Like, am I assuming I'm gonna see Larry the Cable Guy?
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Yeah, yeah yeah, and then you exactly yes, no.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
No, no, and I'm going and I'm Bill Burr raised in.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
The wood perfect.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
Yeah, you're not doing no, you're not doing the you
know you're a redneck.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
No, no, no, no, there's nothing wrong with that. No, no, no,
for sure.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
But for me, it's like I'm trying to take South
Southern comedy can be what it is and not be
exactly in the box.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Sure, that's great, man. I love that stuff. Yeah, you
definitely go see him. Two shows tonight, two shows tomorrow night.
Derek is gonna be awesome now living in New York,
even for any for anybody that's not because he's thora
is from New York originally he's from Long Island. Uh,
that is a massive fish out of water. I don't
care who you are, but I feel like for the South,
(05:59):
that's a very difficult. It's completely different. I lived in
upstate New York and that was wild for me because
I'm a California boy, and why just the attitudes there
are completely different. Especially from the South. South's very you know,
welcoming and warming, like we slower. Yeah, what is your
experience like in New York?
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Well, the good thing is is living in Denver for
ten years was a nice buffet. A lot of people
want to take me fresh off the farm and put
me in New York City, which would be exactly what
you're all. Yes, living in Denver for ten years learn
as a Southerner. I still believe in manners and that
whole dance. But you got to get over yourself and
understand that because somebody didn't hold the door for you
(06:40):
the amount of time that you doesn't mean they're a
bad person there, you know.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean you see, I'm playing to
both sides.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Yeah, but you know, Denver kind of taught me that
patience and with other people, and then for me learning
about other people, you know, it's kind of my cultural baptism.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Yeah. Working with this guy for as long as I have,
you know, I have to get used to it, like
he's an in your faced guy, you know, and it's
like there is no it's not that they're trying to
be rude. It's just a different way of life where
it's like you walk into a say adele or whatever,
they will literally say to you, what do you want?
Speaker 3 (07:19):
Yeah? Yeah? And if you don't know, they're going to
move on to something else.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Yeah yeah, but you should know what you want. No,
you don't greet me and ask me how I'm doing.
Speaker 5 (07:27):
See when I go to a place out here, I'm
annoyed that it takes us so long.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Yeah yeah, yeah, let's go.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
I got places to go.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
I get well for.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Me, I mean we just met each other, so y'all
wouldn't know this New York City works for me. I'm
a very uh kind of like sounds like how Thori
is OK. I mean, I'm a very nice guy, but
I'm a no nonsense like if you cut in front
of me in line, I'm not gonna go.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Well I wish.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
I'm I go hey, hey, you're behind me, and they go,
oh I didn't see I go everybody in the daggum place.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
I'm a spark block fiary. I've been that way my
whole life. So New York City works works like I mean,
I bought a hot.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Dog two months ago, no joke, I mean we went
at each other because he was shot charged me and and.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Then I paid him.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
I took my hot dog, and you know what I
loved about it. I never thought about that conversation. I
love that type of communication. I told him how he
was annoying me. He told me I could buy a
hot dog somewhere else. I went, good day, good day.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Sir, and we went on a hot dog.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
I actually that's what I mean by like, you try
to put Southerners. And that's fine because a lot of
them are in certain boxes. But I'm not walking around
New York City going.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I wish peopleoud give me a biscuit, you know.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
I mean, that's not going on.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
I'm you know, I'm my.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Style on stage. I'm ranty, downhill, angry. I'm like that,
and I don't before I get on stage, I don't go, Okay, Derek,
let's be ranty tonight. It's eight o'clock in the mor
I'm running.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
That's what this guy again. Every Wednesday we do something
called Thor's Midweek Meltdown, and he picks something that's annoying him,
Like right now, I'm really annoyed.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
I'm gonna about people posting on Facebook that their kids
are having moving up ceremonies for first graders or eighth graders, like,
it's like any idiot can graduate first grade.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
I'm sorry, Like, what are we doing?
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Children?
Speaker 2 (09:24):
My tour is called mad about Nothing because that's that's
how I spend because I want people to know I'm
mad all the time. It's usually not about I'm not
going to sit here and have a political soap box.
I'm going to talk to you about how place should
have tater talks instead of or an additions, I mean
(09:44):
and so and so.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
Listen. It's just an example. That was just a strong case.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
I had to come up with argument immediately. I'm not
digging my heels. I just gave an example. I don't
want to do absolutely angry about things that wouldn't matter
to others. I've been that way my whole life. Come
to me with a serious, serious issue, I'll probably calmly
take it in, address it. My shirt gets hung on
(10:10):
a door knob, I'll go, I'll fight everybody and yeah.
Speaker 5 (10:13):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it is really annoying when that happened.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Yeah, yeah, no, this is it. I think you guys
have met your soulmates. This great. This is the things
that annoy this guy.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
Well, I can't understand people like you know, because because
she'll have somebody cut in front of her and be
like and like apologize to them for standing there, and
she'll be like, oh, I'm sorry that I was standing here.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Do you want to cut in front of me again?
There's a homeless guy that came up to her. No,
you know, tell him she was at the ATM and
she just pulled out money and the homeless guy just
walks up to her and yells out ATM and so
she gave her money give him twenty bucks just like that.
How do you comprehend that?
Speaker 3 (10:52):
Dude? Listen, first of all, I gotta say this story.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Thora is gonna enjoy this very quick story the moment,
just to give you an example of how I am
cutting in front of people.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
My wife is very very quiet, introverted.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
We're very the opposite situation. So when we're flying out
of separate gates out of the airport, she's a Southwest
gate that's across the way. I'm on a United gate
that's crossed. Well, I know, Alyssa is gonna let people
just pile in front of her and she's not gonna
hold up her number in.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
The right place in line because she's just like that.
I mean, she's she's like a fourteen. She'll end up
in in E nine.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
God she doesn't because.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
She'll let anybody. So let me tell you who I am.
This guy's a psychopath.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
I go over there and I go, Alissa, can have
your phone, and I get her phone out and I go, okay,
so you're a thirteen, sir, What do we got?
Speaker 3 (11:41):
Okay, a seventeen? You're headed on back? What you got
a nineteen? Melissa? Everybody's cutting? You're in the back too,
My man and I worked for Lissa all the way into.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
The front of the line still, and I went and
boarded my plane because I couldn't fathom her letting.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
And it was even me, but I couldn't fathom that
letting the entire plane cut in front of you.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
And I'm sure everybody around us was like, I hope
everything at home, Yeah loves that about Oh yeah, she
doesn't have to do it, you got she wants to
be in her right position, but she doesn't want to
voice up. And everybody in the Southwest lines hiding their
boarding position like psychopaths.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
I announced mine and I go, here we go.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
We're getting in line. Sorry, eight fourteen get behind us. Listen, Derek,
this sounds awesome.

annoyed that it takes us so long.

I got places to go.
Speaker 3 (07:33):

Me, I mean we just met each other, so y'all
wouldn't know this New York City works for me. I'm
a very uh kind of like sounds like how Thori
is OK. I mean, I'm a very nice guy, but
I'm a no nonsense like if you cut in front
of me in line, I'm not gonna go.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Well I wish.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
I'm I go hey, hey, you're behind me, and they go,
oh I didn't see I go everybody in the daggum place.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
I'm a spark block fiary. I've been that way my
whole life. So New York City works works like I mean,
I bought a hot.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Dog two months ago, no joke, I mean we went
at each other because he was shot charged me and and.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Then I paid him.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
I took my hot dog, and you know what I
loved about it. I never thought about that conversation. I
love that type of communication. I told him how he
was annoying me. He told me I could buy a
hot dog somewhere else. I went, good day, good day.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Sir, and we went on a hot dog.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
I actually that's what I mean by like, you try
to put Southerners. And that's fine because a lot of
them are in certain boxes. But I'm not walking around
New York City going.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I wish peopleoud give me a biscuit, you know.
Speaker 3 (08:42):

Speaker 1 (08:44):
I'm you know, I'm my.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Style on stage. I'm ranty, downhill, angry. I'm like that,
and I don't before I get on stage, I don't go, Okay, Derek,
let's be ranty tonight. It's eight o'clock in the mor
I'm running.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
That's what this guy again. Every Wednesday we do something
called Thor's Midweek Meltdown, and he picks something that's annoying him,
Like right now, I'm really annoyed.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
I'm gonna about people posting on Facebook that their kids
are having moving up ceremonies for first graders or eighth graders, like,
it's like any idiot can graduate first grade.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
I'm sorry, Like, what are we doing?
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Children?
Speaker 2 (09:24):
My tour is called mad about Nothing because that's that's
how I spend because I want people to know I'm
mad all the time. It's usually not about I'm not
going to sit here and have a political soap box.
I'm going to talk to you about how place should
have tater talks instead of or an additions, I mean
(09:44):
and so and so.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
Listen. It's just an example. That was just a strong case.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
I had to come up with argument immediately. I'm not
digging my heels. I just gave an example. I don't
want to do absolutely angry about things that wouldn't matter
to others. I've been that way my whole life. Come
to me with a serious, serious issue, I'll probably calmly
take it in, address it. My shirt gets hung on
(10:10):
a door knob, I'll go, I'll fight everybody and yeah.
Speaker 5 (10:13):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it is really annoying when that happened.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Yeah, yeah, no, this is it. I think you guys
have met your soulmates. This great. This is the things
that annoy this guy.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
Well, I can't understand people like you know, because because
she'll have somebody cut in front of her and be
like and like apologize to them for standing there, and
she'll be like, oh, I'm sorry that I was standing here.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Do you want to cut in front of me again?
There's a homeless guy that came up to her. No,
you know, tell him she was at the ATM and
she just pulled out money and the homeless guy just
walks up to her and yells out ATM and so
she gave her money give him twenty bucks just like that.
How do you comprehend that?
Speaker 3 (10:52):
Dude? Listen, first of all, I gotta say this story.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Thora is gonna enjoy this very quick story the moment,
just to give you an example of how I am
cutting in front of people.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
My wife is very very quiet, introverted.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
We're very the opposite situation. So when we're flying out
of separate gates out of the airport, she's a Southwest
gate that's across the way. I'm on a United gate
that's crossed. Well, I know, Alyssa is gonna let people
just pile in front of her and she's not gonna
hold up her number in.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
The right place in line because she's just like that.
I mean, she's she's like a fourteen. She'll end up
in in E nine.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
God she doesn't because.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
She'll let anybody. So let me tell you who I am.
This guy's a psychopath.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
I go over there and I go, Alissa, can have
your phone, and I get her phone out and I go, okay,
so you're a thirteen, sir, What do we got?
Speaker 3 (11:41):
Okay, a seventeen? You're headed on back? What you got
a nineteen? Melissa? Everybody's cutting? You're in the back too,
My man and I worked for Lissa all the way into.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
The front of the line still, and I went and
boarded my plane because I couldn't fathom her letting.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
And it was even me, but I couldn't fathom that
letting the entire plane cut in front of you.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
And I'm sure everybody around us was like, I hope
everything at home, Yeah loves that about Oh yeah, she
doesn't have to do it, you got she wants to
be in her right position, but she doesn't want to
voice up. And everybody in the Southwest lines hiding their
boarding position like psychopaths.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
I announced mine and I go, here we go.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
We're getting in line. Sorry, eight fourteen get behind us. Listen, Derek,
