Black Paddy wants to teach his children self-acceptance; to love their bodies and their skin colour. The comedian and social media star is best known for his viral videos which gently poke fun at the culture shock of moving to Ireland from Africa. But he won't be including his children in his antics, preferring that they grow up with a 'strong mind' before they're ever exposed to the opinions of others online. In this conversation with host, Jen Hogan, he discusses the impact of losing his father at a young age, his period of homelessness and substance abuse and how he was happy for fatherhood to take him out of the fast lane. This episode contains strong language.
