The myth of the deadbeat dad
***A heads up: This episode contains strong language and unbleeped swearing*** “Stereo-anti-types” is a special series from Homegoings examining some of the most troubling, most profound and most dangerous stereotypes that apply to Black men. In this first episode, host Myra Flynn and colleague Bryant Denton get up close and personal with podcaster Pendarvis Harshaw and comedian Marlon Fisher to tackle the myth of the deadbeat dad. Both of these men have bucked societal bias and are anything but deadbeat – but as you'll hear, it wasn't always easy. Homegoings is a production of Vermont Public. Follow season 2 here. This episode was mixed and reported by Myra Flynn and Bryant Denton with help from associate producer James Stewart. Myra composed the theme music with other music from Blue Dot sessions. Saidu Tejan-Thomas Jr. edits the show with help from Jane Lindholm, Corey Dockser and Liam Elder Conners. Elodie Reed, Zoe McDonald and Laura Nakasaka are the graphic artists behind this episode’s Homegoings artist portrait.
