How You Do Dad

What does life as a single dad look like? In this episode, we welcome Malaysian comedian Rizal Van Geyzel and entrepreneur Bryan Chin to share their day-to-day life as a single father.

Nobody teaches you what to do when your kid gets sick or when they start cussing at the age of 4.

We thought we were prepared for fatherhood but there's so much more we've yet to learn. Nabil joins us today to chat about lessons in fatherhood no one has prepared us for. But if there's one thing you can prepare for, it's your little one's skincare! Shop Applecrumby's skincare range; shampoo, body wash and lotion to ensure your little one's skin is well taken care of.

The Dads are back after a season of hiatus to catch up on life and how's parenthood going so far. They chat about new fears as their kids grow older, raising kids in the age of AI and adapting to new changes as one of the Dads will be expecting Baby No. 2!

This week on How You Do Dad, we’re talking about something our dads know absolutely nothing about: C-sections. What actually happens for a C-section mom? And how do you support both mom and child after?

We’re joined by Melissa Campbell, Jane Chuck, and Dr. Alvin as we finally ask all the questions dads are usually too scared (or clueless) to bring up. From plans that go smoothly to moments where nothing goes to plan — it’s an honest, eye-opening chat about what really happens when things take a different route.

Join us as we learn from mistakes and figure out this thing called daddyhood.
