Derrick Stroup Is Running Hot Across America!

Comedian Derrick Stroup didn’t even start doing stand-up until he moved from Alabama to Denver… and now he’s got a Netflix special, “Nostalgic,” that’s blowing up! Derrick talks about betting on himself, moving to New York to sharpen his comedy at The Comedy Cellar, and why being funny in NYC proves you can be funny anywhere. He breaks down his “sharp writing” philosophy, how everyday frustrations turn into killer bits, and why he refuses to punch down in his comedy. Derrick also shares how his Netflix special came together, filming it in Birmingham, and why his 90s childhood material connects with EVERY generation. Hear stories about opening for Nate Bargatze, how Nate helped elevate his career, and what it’s like performing in front of 20,000 people. Plus, Derrick talks about his favorite bits (including the viral airplane “goblins” joke), bombing auditions in Hollywood, life on the road, dealing with bad crowds, and the real moment he knew his career was taking off.
