Dad It Yourself- Life Repaired 3 Ways

Dashell, Iqbal, and Younas couldn't be more different..., but their problems are the same.

They weren't ready to be fathers in their 20's.

Entrepreneur Dashell: Never married his hot Asian girlfriend, spends his days hustling to keep his business afloat, and his nights fucking women. That is, as long as they aren't dark skinned black, like him. Father to 2 boys.

Artist Iqbal: Was the model brown, Muslim Pakistani kid, until he got divorced. His now ex wife, took the kids and left for blowing the family savings on an anime project that failed. Father to 2 boys, and 1 girl.

Accomplished Mechanic Younas: Skilled with his hands in more ways than one. He's a walking stereotype of a good looking, light skinned black man, fully equipped with two baby mothers. No doubt on the verge of adding a third with the way he has careless sex. Father to 1 boy, and 1 girl.

Now in their mid 30's, all live at home with their parents, are in debt and feel their lives are going nowhere. Each woman connected to them just feels..., nothing. Co-parenting is like pulling teeth, harmless queries about where a lunchbox is can turn into deep seated resentment and text wars about the past.

Sick of where their lives are going, Dashell and Younas partner up to create a community space where people can fix up things they need to with some guidance for a low cost. A Do-It-Yourself Space. But they need help. Iqbal, a creative mind who can't fix up his own life; may just be the repair kit they need when he walks through their doors.

A look at the nuances of being diverse, divorced dads who have to figure out how to "fix" their lives up for the sake of their kids.
