Vanderpump Rules with Derek Pentz AKA Zenobia Darling

We are so pleased to have Derek Pentz as our guest this week to talk about Bravo TV's long-running reality TV hit, "Vanderpump Rules". What a fun, informative conversation about not just the show itself, but how reality TV stars are really smart marketers, and what we can all learn from them. NOTE: SPICY LANGUAGE and SOME ADULT SUBJECT MATTER. This was such a learning experience of a talk, and we hope you enjoy it.

Zenobia Darling is the critically acclaimed drag persona behind stand-up comic, podcaster, and artist Derek Pentz. Derek is a graduate of Towson University's theater program, where he studied reality television's theatrical and societal relevance, writing his undergraduate theater thesis on two of Bravo's reality tv theater masterpieces, Vanderpump Rules and The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, titled "Would Oscar Wilde be a Nineteenth-Century PumpHead? The Wilde Aspirational Comedy of Vanderpump Rules." Since 2022, Derek has been creating out of his Havre de Grace, MD art studio and recording his upcoming podcast, #RockStarLife: Coffee Break, where Zenobia beams down to earth to gossip with guests about pop culture and reality tv, with a special interest in The Real Housewives and Ghost Adventures.
