About this Podcast:
Certified Bad Example is a weekly podcast hosted by August Black and Jameel Mayers that turns terrible parenting moments into teachable ones. Each episode digs into real stories from current events, history, and everyday life where parental figures made spectacularly bad choices. Instead of just judging, August and Jameel break down what went wrong, why it matters, and how those “bad examples” can actually help us become better parents and people. Because sometimes the best way to learn what to do… is seeing exactly what not to do.
