Combining work with parenting 3 kids (including a baby) means that Matty seemingly has an endless list of things to do. Almost a full time job on top of the full time job.
We run through his daily/weekly routine and how he manages to juggle a full time job with successful partner running her own business and three adorable, but time consuming children and everything parenting them means.
Starting his day between 5am and 5:30am Matty gets a lot of things done during the week (even if he is a bit slow at cleaning up) and it's a great insight into the many different ways modern man works and stays balanced.

Is the modern man a hunter or a gentleman? A manual labourer or a technophile? In today's culture the modern man usually is a mix of many things. The modern man must be adaptable.
Gender roles are changing and blending together and the stay-at-home dad or part time dad population is growing.
More fathers than ever are participating in their children's nurturing and upbringing.
The thing is that fathers and mothers come into the parenting process differently though. For the mother, the connection is biological. It's a part of her.
Fathering, on the other hand, is less so. Therefore, it's important for men to learn the skills they need to be a good dad. For some guys it's more intuitive, like kicking a football, but most guys need a coach or some direction.
DADDY EATS LAST discusses what it means to be a man and a father in modern society and all the issues that comes with both.
