Meet Dion Hudnall

Mad Black Dad was born out of a desire to create space for real conversations about dadhood—especially from the perspective of Black dads. This platform is all about sharing the ups, downs, lessons, and laughs that come with parenting. From fatherhood classes and The Mad Black Dad Podcast, to a father-son cooking show that highlights bonding through food, everything we do is rooted in love, healing, and community.

I’m a husband, a proud dad of two, and a school counselor by profession. But at my core, I’m just a Black dad who believes in showing up—with honesty, intention, and heart. I’m passionate about creating spaces where men and fathers can connect, feel seen, and grow together. Mad Black Dad is more than a brand—it’s a movement to redefine what fatherhood looks like and feels like in our communities.
