In the most dadding fashion, Mick wasn't around for this week's Dad's Hour as he was off having a baby!

David Easson was in the hot seat alongside Jim Johnson and Dale Roberts to talk all things parenting.

It's #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek and the dads looked at how hard it can be when you're a stay at home dad and a new parent and the effect it has on your mental health.

Plus, it's the Royal Wedding. Do you want your kids to get involved in the excitement? 

All that and more on this week's Dads Hour.

It’s Mick’s last Dad’s Hour before he disappears for two week’s paternity leave.

He and Iain Christie have a lot of ground to cover before baby number two arrives – so how is Mick feeling about it?

Also on the show, a dad (and youth worker) offers his thoughts on how to cope when your little angel starts the descent into full blown adulthood.

Chris Cairns and Iain Christie join Mick for this week’s Dad’s Hour. And a few uncomfortable truths emerge… 

One in 10 people hate their partners cooking, and it sounds as if Iain is one of them!

Chris gets a little carried away on the subject too. (All in good humour)

Also on the agenda, is your house big enough for the number of kids you have? Or have you been forced to move to accommodate them and all their “stuff”

As heard on Radio City Talk – Friday from 1.20pm

Big news this week, as the Royal baby gets a name, Mick has baby issues of his own, and Sam Avery announces details of his “Learner Parent” UK tour.

But the dads take it all in their stride.

Also on the agenda: What really frightens adults? And are nappy bins worth the hassle?

“Be Careful!” Just how many times a day do you find yourself warning your kids about potential dangers? The dads discuss that and a whole lot more on this week’s Dad’s Hour. Also on the agenda, Mick is off to see Disney on Ice and he can’t wait. And is it time for dads to wake up to the emotional needs of their daughters? Yes, obviously.

On the agenda: Mother’s Day – how to do it right and how to do it very, very wrong.

And a mum swings by to help us out –celebrity Kimberly Walsh from Girls Aloud.
