The kids swearing meme returns as experimentation with The F Word sweeps the culture.

This week's show is brought to you by big willys, missing vests, all the Easter chocolate and more misadventures in parenting...

McIntyre is back and dropping wisdom like a new hip hop track on a music service no-one asked for. Nathan has a friend who asked what to do about his kid being hit by the kid of the coach of his kid's football team - confused? So are we. Then Ger asks which toilets he should bring his 7 year old to, at the game in the Aviva? It goes a bit weird for a while after that but don't hold it against Nathan. OH BURIED THE LEAD - Adrian had to call for the SWAT team to rescue him after an hour minding the kids alone. Is calling your wife to come home after an hour worse than telling everyone she snored during pregnancy on a podcast? Find out this week.

On tonight's show the Dads discuss the fallout from previous revelations they've made on the show, there is no reference to Adrian's wife's snoring (contractual denial of this) and we open the mail bag for the torrent of abuse and questions coming our way. Join in, get pregnant and lose your mind to your children's madness, it's delightful at the bottom of the slippery slope.

As part of the 20X20 initiative aimed at increasing participation, attendance and coverage of women's sport there's an entire discussion to be had around the role that Dads play in making sure girls get access early and often to a range of sports. We've got some champion Dads in today as special guests, in Kieran Donaghy and Andy Lee, both of whom have daughters. And three of the usual Dad's are here too - Nathan, Ger and Adrian are back with their usual bad advice. This was recorded ahead of time and supposed to drop on International Women's Day, but it was too good to hold on to. 

(And also Nathan took last week off so we'd no show. Sue me.)

The Dads regular chat including a whopper mailbag will be back next week - [email protected]

Week 18 and the Dad's are talking about taking the Dadcast on the road for a brand new Dadcast Roadshow that might involve pints and the stuff we're not allowed to say on the podcast. How's that sound? 

Adrian has a cheat for Candy Crush, having reached level 3,775\. Does this somehow make him a bad parent? Well he's been judging all our mailbaggers so feel free to judge away! Send your email queries to [email protected] and use the hashtag #dadcast

This week it's phones, other people's older kids and their bad influence, bedtime routine disasters and the rest....

Andy Lee, former middleweight Champion of The World, joins the Dads this week to talk about getting over sleep issues, recommends a programme to follow that's starting to work for them and how having a child made him not want to fight anymore.

Nathan is so tired he can barely remember the chaos of getting everyone out to school this morning, but we'll come back to the routine of chaos aka The School Run again. Adrian has a cinematic moment at an Irish funeral and Ger says cry it out...

A mailbag special - hit us up on [email protected] to be included - this week delves into the remarkable ability of a child's pooh to bob up and down on the top of the water; is pregnancy but no kids enough of a pass to colonize the family changing rooms at the swimming pool. 

Pregnancy test kits and why you always have to ask for them? Can't you just put them beside the bloody till? Also one of the dads is playing golf and getting pissed just as the test shows two blue lines...

Also more from snoregate "my wife's pregnancy snoring was just normal snoring" - it's possible to misinterpret that, right?

Adrian has been spreading his wings on the actual radio railing against a tweet from a dad that went viral about how it's not always a winner to have kids.
