If you want a very random episode this one could just be the one for you!!  Leon brings us all up to speed with his beverage consumption this week with only missing 3 out of 7 days - absolute machine! Did someone say Intervention??? Andy, on the other hand has a loose thought about being lazy so decides to go climb a mountain - we did say random!! This weeks topic has...

Welcome back!  This week, the dads are talking about careers their kids should do!  Andy has an extensive list of jobs on the decline since the 1980s, more like the 1880s.  Andy also has a list of the most popular jobs that Gils and Boys from 2022 would like to do when they grow up!!! Surprisingly, an influencer isn't one! Nor a Nurse! This must be due to the inadequate pay!!! #NHS #Betterpaymoref...

Season 2 episode 55 and the Dad's are finally getting around to teaching their children things - about time I hear you say..... Leon starts this weeks episode by admitting he's fallen off the wagon - even though he was sat on it for a full 4 and a half weeks! he must've fallen hard.  Following the question of what these two dad's could teach their children????  You really ned to listen t...

Welcome back! This week, the boys are talking about kids using the internet NOT LIKE THAT . The boys had the same opinion! It's a scary world out there!

As per usual, Leon went off on a rant about the English language! #knob #knight also...

A slightly sombre feel this week as the Dad's discuss the passing of her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. But in true Dad Tales fashion the Dad's see these events slightly differently.....  They discussed some terrible dress sense, who didn't talk to who, Tony Blair not being a bad guy and which way do you salute....... These was the tip of the iceberg on where the discussions went.  These di...

Well we've had 3 weeks off but you wouldn't know as the episodes have still been flowing nicely. So as we arrange to get back together one of the dad's is AWOL.  But with one of the pair MIA the show must go on. It's not the full length feature podcast that you're used to but its a good un.

S2 Ep 43. If you're a regular listener you'll have all empathy to how this episode goes. The dad's start off chatting about how their week has gone then discuss for (far too long) what this weeks episode is actually about. No surprise there that they don't agree.  As always the podcast takes an unusual turn and the dad's discuss bucket lists and creating each others - watch out for that episo...

Welcome back!  This week, the boys are talking about inventions they wish they could have taken credit for inventing! Neither went for things that would have made them lots of money.    Andy had a rant! But a nice one, from a single dad's perspective!  Andy also called the sides on glasses ARMS! Leon's Mrs will not be happy about that!     Two new things that are...

Here it is!! The first (and no doubt last) bloopers edition. Now you thought the Dad's left everything in the podcast.... you'd be very surprised to hear that they cut out an awful lot of splurge! Andy may have also stitched Leon up with this one but there are a few things on here that even Leon can't explain. We hope you enjoy!!

"Welcome back!  This week, the boys start with housekeeping and apologised for come catagory C and B words that have been dropped over the past few weeks.  Two weeks ago when the boys looked at different top news stories, Leon had a repeat with an odd news story that caught his eye this week. A black bear, a Chinese lad, a bucket of fruit and noodles!! Enough said, have a listen...........

Well..... What can you say about a title like that? This week has Andy actually asking Leon for advice - what could possibly go wrong with that?  The episode has leon shocking Andy about his wardrobe - don't worry Amy, it's not him coming out of the closet!! Although that would possibly be less shocking!! We hear more work nicknames that have been sent in. These are hilarious, please keep the...

 Welcome back!  This week, the boys are talking about their week as it's been the Queens 70th Jubilee . Shock Leon has no clue about it! #Queensjubilee #royalfamily  They looked at the top news stories for this week. Slow week for journalism.

The Dad's continue and people still listen which is a complete bemusement really! Leon has a night on the town with an old friend and in typical grumpy and confrontational fashion he's not happy to be proven wrong!  This weeks episode is based all around workplace nicknames. This is one NOT to be missed. One of the Dad's had tried to create his own nickname... bet you can't guess who that was...

Welcome back!  After last week's show, someone had to start with an apology!
