This week on Immigrantly, Saadia KhanI sits down with the brilliant and hilarious Derek Mitchell. He is a comedian, actor, and creator of @letsdoubledutch. Derek’s lived all over Chicago, Amsterdam, and London, and he’s bringing his globally inspired comedy back to the U.S. for the first time.

They talk about everything from learning to belong in a new country, navigating Dutch bluntness, the fine line between cultural cringe and comedy gold, and, most importantly, feeling “at home” in multiple places. 

Oh, and yes, they get into why Dutch people have flawless American accents.

Derek’s hitting New York, LA, and Chicago on his first-ever U.S. comedy tour—get your tickets here: https://linktr.ee/letsdoubledutch.

It’s sharp, funny,  deeply human. Don’t miss this one!
