When Darnell “J.D.” Williams pulls up to the Father Hoods, you already know it’s gonna be real. The Wire and Oz actor chops it up with DJ EFN, Manny Digital, and KGB about fatherhood, family, and finding balance between Hollywood and home.
J.D. opens up about raising a teenage daughter, co-parenting with intention, and staying locked in as a supportive dad. He talks about guiding his daughter through life, how he’d back her if she chose acting, and what it takes to keep that emotional connection strong.
The crew also gets into the tough stuff: college talk, teaching kids to “agree to disagree,” and handling relationship convos without losing your cool.
It’s raw, relatable, and packed with gems. J.D. reminds us that behind every role, there’s a real one, and for him, being a Dad is the role that means the most.
