What's up everyone, my name is Derek, the creator & host of "The Dad or Derek Show". I'm the father to my 6-year-old son Benjamin. Being a parent comes with lots of different experiences from potty training, school prep, trying to balance a personal life & a successful career. But most importantly getting to see your child grow and become their own person. With this podcast I want to share with my listeners two different sides of my world. The Dad side, through stories & ongoing experiences then the Derek side, cool fun jokes & stories through Q & As all with occasional parents & guests. Let's Vibe. Thanks for listening!

    Dad Ep. 3 “We Shall Overcome” Pt.2

    I’m back with Ricky to finish up our conversation. To get right back into it with the view on the viral term “GIRL DAD”. I want to thank Ricky giving me such an amazing outlook to a guy with a son. Looking in the mirror is strong & comes in a lot when parenting. Enjoy Part 2!

    Dad Ep.3 “We Shall Overcome” Pt.1

    We were shown some love by having our first overall guest on the show. Buddy of mine, Ricky jumps on the podcast with us. We covered so much in this episode that we had to cut it up into two parts. The vibes were there! Ricky talks with us about the unfortunate situation for him & his family. Such an inspiring story with a beautiful outcome. I wanna give a big shoutout to all of them parents out there fighting for & with their kids!!! Stay Strong. “We Shall Overcome”

    Derek Ep. 1 “Lemme get 10mins.”

    Derek Ep. 1 “Lemme get 10mins.”

    We can do it all!! First Derek episode!! A great conversation with my longtime friend Javier. Just two parents passing the time catching up through some random Q&As. I tried to catch Jav off guard, didn’t I? We covered everything from the things our kids say with no filter, gaming to fighting a damn kangaroo!! Plus, my apologies for the zoom malfunctions. ENJOY!!!

    Dad Ep. 2 “What he Say?”

    Dad Ep. 2 “What he Say?”

    Sometimes I can’t believe some of the things these kids be watching & listening too, nowadays. From movies, T.V. shows & even music. These new versions of the Power Rangers be driving me crazy. Time to show a little bit of the early 2000s some love. We gotta watch these kids’ man, Benji shows us his excitement for one of our favorite shows. You don’t want to miss out on this featured phone call to my dad. What did he say!!?

    Dad Ep. 1.5 “You Know?”

    Dad Ep. 1.5 “You Know?”

    Follow me while I go through talking about kids during the pandemic & trying to envision myself having to stay home when I was younger. Which swings me to a kid’s independence & Benji’s solo moments wanting to play in his own imagination. Ending us with public tantrums that sparked an inspiring video that helped me with my experience. You Know!!?
