Wesley "Diplo" Pentz is a dim-witted but good-natured DJ, producer, and record label head. The series follows Diplo as he performs, records, and lives life, often making mistakes by accident (such as spending the day with the wrong sick child) or on purpose (such as starting a Twitter beef with Calvin Harris).
On Rotten Tomatoes, the series has an aggregate score of 90% based on 9 positive and 1 negative critic reviews. The website’s consensus reads: "James Van Der Beek excels with a vanity-free performance in What Would Diplo Do?, a sardonic takedown of DJ culture that is as observant as it is uncomfortably funny."[3]
