This episode of "After the Final Bell" features Trevor O'Connor and Mike Gonzales joined by comedian Derrick Rush. They discuss Derrick's upcoming headlining gig at Comedy Works, his experiences in the comedy scene, and the challenges of navigating the industry.
Derrick shares stories about encountering racism from other comedians early in his career and the frustration of gatekeeping within the comedy world. They contrast this with comedians who actively support and uplift others.
The conversation shifts to the changing landscape of comedy specials, from HBO to Comedy Central to Netflix, and the debate over selling out versus pursuing financial opportunities. They also touch on the allure of YouTube revenue versus traditional TV deals.
The hosts delve into conspiracy theories about Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, and then transition to a discussion of political polarization and the cyclical nature of outrage during election cycles. They humorously address the rising cost of eggs and blame it on political figures.
