Great Hang! with Derek Humphrey

I am doing a special 2-part episode where I talk to the El-Salomon's (Eman El Husseini and Jess Salomon) who are married, one being a Kuwait born Muslim and the other being a Canadian person of Jewish descent. It has all the makings of a sitcom!

I take turns in episode 1 talking between both of them individually and then part two is talking with the both of them together. We go over Eman's background, Saddam Hussein's influence on their wedding and Canada's racism. Can you believe it? CANADA CAN BE RACIST!

I really learned a lot about Canada, being a lesbian couple with different family expectations and how to properly say "Gaza." I love this podcast and so will you. Check out "The El-Salomons (pt.1 + pt. 2) of "Derek Mansplains It All" on iTunes, Soundcloud, Googleplay and Stitcher!

Amy Shanker is a hilarious comic in NYC but before moving here she was a teacher in Chicago for 13 years. On the latest episode of "Derek Mansplains It All", I invited her and my wife, who is currently a New York City public school teacher, to talk about the plight of teachers today.

Long hours, parent-less homes, underpaid and overworked; in my opinion, teachers have one of the toughest jobs in America. They are seemingly undervalued and disregarded as being integral to the fabric of a child's development and subsequently our society's well being. But some people do not agree so I had Amy break down what her role was like and why she left to pursue a career in comedy!

This is a very special episode of "Derek Mansplains It All" where I am joined by my buddy Clint Nohr, an old friend and comic from the South, who is the middle man between me and my wife as we sort through her ill conceived perceptions of what an "Alpha Male" is. We talk "toxic masculinity", the importance of being a supportive wife and some of the pratfalls that encompass a life in the entertainment business.

Clint Nohr is a comic originally from South Carolina who worked the Charlotte, North Carolina scene for years before coming up to NYC. He has made TV appearances on "Live From Gotham on AXS TV" as well as toured nationally, opening up for Tig Notaro, Doug Stanhope, Kyle Kinane and more!

Michelle De Swarte is a Jewish and Jamaican comic, former model and TV personality originally from south London. On the latest episode of "Derek Mansplains It All" we talk about us both being gentrifiers, eating bacon and egg sandwiches while Jewish on Passover and how she doesn't give a fuck what white men have to say about ANYTHING.

Michelle was discovered at 19 for a modeling gig and then worked for Burberry, Gap, Levis and Michael Kors before hanging it up to pursue TV gigs. She has hosted tons of programming for the BBC (British Broadcasting Company), including Fashion TV, before working with Vice on numerous programs including "Cash Slaves" and "Woman with Gloria Steinem." In her work with Gloria Steinem, she has traveled to numerous prisons to interview women who became pregnant while incarcerated.

To say the least, Michelle has lived quite a life. We talk about all of that and more on "Gay Chicken/Cocaine is Garbage" with Michelle De Swarte!

In today's episode of Derek Mansplains It All, Phill Hunt and I talk about feminism in comedy, social justice warriors, why I don't like The Wire and what it is like being picked first in basketball as a white guy. Phill has a lot of worldly experience, contrarian views and a perspective that is lacking in comedy today. We get along a lot so this episode was a lot of fun to do.

Phill is one of the best joke writers in NYC and will be headlining Caroline's on Broadway in NYC on May 29th. Tickets available here: http://www.carolines.com/comedian/breakout-artist-comedy-series-phill-hunt/

Phill and I will also be at the Raven's Lounge in Philadelphia on April 14th at 8PM

Paul Julmeus and I hung out at QED Studios and talked about school shootings, having never heard of "White Privilege" and how we are failed Catholics (to our parents)! Paul has been featured in the New York Comedy Festival, in the comedic play "Hidden Fences" and is one of NYC's up and coming talents. We talk about our similarities and the current state of the world in "Stereotypical White Guy" on episode 17 of Derek Mansplains It All!

To me, the midwest has been producing an inclusive diversity for years and it seems like the coasts are just now catching up. My good friend Justin Williams is a comic at night and Professor of African Studies by day. Hailing from the epicenter of BBQ, Kansas City, Justin talks to me about Irish slavery, African colonization and he takes issue with Black Panther! Check out episode 16 "Gentrifying Wakanda with Justin Williams!" on the latest episode of Derek Mansplains It All!

Gentrification, kids growing up soft, vegan delis, Mormon neighbors. New York City has changed quite a bit since I first visited in the 90's and especially since moving here 5 years ago. But what does it sound like from the perspective of someone born and raised in Brooklyn? We get into it on the latest episode of "Derek Mansplains It All."

Gastor Almonte has been featured on Comedy Central's "This Is Not Happening", is a touring comic and one of the hosts of "I'm Dead Comedy" in my hood, at the Flatbush Zombie House. We talk about gentrification, raising kids today to respect the world of Michael Jordan and our love for Roy Wood Jr. Check out "White Flight/Real New Yorker" w/Gastor Almonte on iTunes and Soundcloud.

This was one of the funniest episodes of DMIA I have recorded to date. Paul Hooper is a white guy but was raised Southern Baptist, hates sports and has done gay stuff. Nothing like me at all. But what really separates Paul from myself is that he has been a sober person for the last 12 years. Since the age of 16, I don't think that I have been sober for 12 weeks. We talk sobriety, bitterness in comedy and hitting rock bottom on the latest episode of "Derek Mansplains It All!" Check out Ep. 14: "Skeeving Las Vegas" w/Paul Hooper!!!

Tanael Joachim (aka TJ) is a comic, actor and recently contributed to the New York Times. TJ lives in New York but originally hails from Haiti. Having immigrated to America at a young age, TJ gives a breadth of perspective to the immigrant and American experiences. We talk Haiti's history, Social Justice in comedy, the only two black people in Utah and why he feels sorry for white guys in comedy! Check out "Sh*tHole Countries" w/Taneal Joachim today!
