  • A Black Dad on Forgiveness (Episode 8)
    This week, I thought I’d do something a little different. I’ve been feeling sort of down lately so instead of recording in the studio, I decided to record while I take a walk. I talk about forgiving my father’s mistakes, acknowledging my own, and hoping to get the forgiveness of my own children. Keep sending those emails and voice messages. The encouragement really helps. [email protected] and anchor.fm/justablackdadcast. Thanks for listening and coming on this walk with me.

  • A Black Dad on High Expectations (Episode 4)

    *Content warning*: I reference my mental state and my suicide attempts. The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline’s number is 1-800-273-8255. Reach out if you or anyone you know needs help. This week we talk about my depression and the expectation that my children would somehow cure it. My realization that that was far to high of an ask for a new life really opened my eyes to my own responsibilities.
