Get ready for some dad humour! Only this dad is actually a professional stand-up comic.
Bilingual comedian and father Derek Seguin finds aspects in each part of his day-to-day life to help with the other. As a comic, he draws from his experience as a single dad in his forties, and in fatherhood, he's found that telling jokes on stage has helped him become a better dad.
