The Dadsnet Show

We're having a look list of gifts Dads want, but might not know it. We find out the real cost of a Guinea pig. And Al's getting bullied by youths in the street. And of course JK's got some tech!

This week on the podcast our guest is JK’s school mate Natasha Jones who has a new book out for me called Mandemic. "Natasha describes herself as a highly unusual lawyer, who, during the pandemic produced an illustrated pocket rocket manifesto for the post pandemic dad. A Tale of a man who didn't like to be told what to do these are 32 gentle invitations which might just make tomorrow feel a bit b...

Lockdown is FINALLY easing and we're talking about rejoining the world but also the separation anxiety we'll be feeling by not being in our safe and cozy home. We're also not sure what the dad rules on tracksuits and socks and sandles. We've got a forgetful dad in the confession and of course JK's got some new tech.

So somehow we're having chat about discipline but also we spend a good bit of time talking about buttholes. We're also talk about dad self care - Al's getting paranoid that he stinks.

We're gong to hear the confessions of a new dad... It's also Al's turn to make a (sexy) confession. We're looking at ways Dads can get a little bit of me time.

We start with wifi network names and devolve into alternative holiday destinations. Just as Al is about to wet himself we have a look at how many full time jobs it is being a mum. ...or a dad.

There's a lot steps, but we've just about nailed the rules to help end lock-down. Cannot wait to meet a friend to have coffee on a bench! We've got a Dad who's being hard on himself but needs to know he's not alone. And Al's been beaten up by his kid. ...again.

From time to time we can all be a little socially awkward, especially when we're kids. But what's going to happen to our children's social development after all this time of being separated from their friends? There's also an effect no one is talking about - extra wrapping for presents from Amazon!! We're also awarding a mum 10/10 during our confession and it can't get Al to stop thinking about hi...

We're very lucky on the podcast to be joined by the legendary David James. As a father of 4 and a grandfather, David has some great insights. We discuss fatherhood (obvs), grassroots football and naturally we want some football stories! Listen and subscribe to Don't Tell Your Mum now on Global Player or wherever you get your podcasts.

So it's no secret that we're all feeling a little flat at the moment. Dealing with the events of the past 12 months have been tough on everybody. And this means Dads too. We're going to get into the loneliness that's effecting Fathers everywhere. We're also finally going to address the keeping your clothes neat and tidy on the bedroom floor. And some dad has inadvertently taught his kid to make bo...

What does masculinity mean to you? Is it about big muscles and refusing to cry during the start of Up? Or is it about being in touch with your emotions? We scratch beneath the surface. We're also venting some dishwasher fury! Why are Dads the only ones capable of stacking it right? Perhaps it's all those years playing Tetris. And we've got a dad who's not messing around when it comes to bedtime mo...

Hats off to those who are going through the highs and lows (mostly lows) of home learning. Who knows, maybe the silver lining is we'll learn stuff that never sunk in while we were at school. We're also talking about being caught speeding, how we deal with sick dogs and for some reason we spend quite a bit of time talking about our showering routines. And oh boy - we have some great tech this week!...

We're back for a new year and we've got a simple formula to being a good dad... maybe even a good human! We're going to hear about some Zoom mishaps and we've also got a handy little traffic light system to keep you out of the dog house - there's a surprising amount of reds.

We're having a look at the impact of isolation on Dads. It's a tough time for everyone at the moment, so remember - it's ok not to be ok. Unfortunately scammers with sophisticated malware don't seem to be affected. And we've got a forgetful dad, but let's be honest - we've all done it. It's only repeat offenders who are a concern. And guess what?! JK's got some new tech - but it's alright. You kno...

Believe it or not we can be mature and sincere. It's a very heavy topic that has impacted us both personally. But obviously, we're going to balance all this seriousness out with stupidity - like how one of our dads, who put something he shouldn't have in his mouth. And we've got some of the best tech we've ever had too! You can check it out here - https://store.nintendo.co.uk/games/nintendo-switch...

Just what should our kids be worrying about? Nothing right? They should be in a state of mental bliss. Apart from when they're overtired dad puts vapor rub on their bits that is. Weirdly we explore both those topics. Also - Al's cracked the code to marital bliss. And of course, we've got new tech! Baby cameras that for some reason we're using on pets. Check them out here - https://www.amazon.co.uk...

Even though Al is practically useless, he's got a load of tips to get through Christmas. JK is a little confused as to what Santa actually brings his children. But at least neither of them have tied their kids up and forgot - unlike a certain dad! Listen and subscribe to Don't Tell Your Mum now on Global Player or wherever you get your podcasts.

We have a very sad but all too common story from a fellow dad that we can relate to. But this is what we're all about - dads helping dads. Also, an astute mum has called "fake cat piss!" Yes, we are responsible grown-ups - what are you? We also have the latest must-have tech! Listen and subscribe to Don't Tell Your Mum now on Global Player or wherever you get your podcasts.

It's a very exciting episode as we are chatting to the Head of Fun from London Zoo! What a great job and a great place to visit!! We also have a very heavy confession.

Oh boy - a lot of us were right little so and so's as kids. But we can still get cross when our kids are naughty can't we? It's not hypocritical, right? And we've got a poor dad who's on a call with HR because of a letter (facepalm emoji) Our tech this week will blow your mind!
