In this episode, Julie reveals what it's like to be married to someone who purposefully puts himself and his family in the public eye, and how she's dealt with all the ups and downs that come with that life. 

(She also makes it VERY clear where she wants to go on holiday)

We also chatted about the "Blogger Drama" that's slowly heating up right now. Here's the short version: everyone is upset with each other. Except me! Here's how I keep AfroDaddy going through the drama.

You did all the reading, watch all the documentaries, spoke to all the old folk - you were prepared as anyone could be...

And then you became a parent and you discovered that it could still catch you by surprise. Sound familiar?

In this episode we talk about the ways that becoming a parent has caught us off guard - and we included a bunch of your social media posts too!

It's play time!

Back in the day, there were two things we used to do at school: we would learn, and then when we had a break, we would play. But now more and more experts are proving that play and learning are completely intertwined - and a lot of that has to happen at home too!

This episode focuses on why it's important, and but also sometimes really hard, to play with your kids.

Who knows more about parenting? The mighty search engine we call Google, or two dads with only their own, limited experiences of fatherhood?

For this special Father's Day Edition of Ask AfroDaddy, I was joined by my friend, Tristan, and together we took on the questions you told us you recently asked Google. Listen to the podcast to find out how we did!

A miracle happened this weekend: Our boys slept over at their grandparents. Not just that, but it was an unplanned event, which meant that we hadn't organised it for a specific reason (like a wedding or work thing) - so we had a whole 24 hours to ourselves.

But that left us with a question: What do parents actually do when they are kid free for a day?

Here are some of the ideas we got with some help from you on social media!

In this episode of Ask AfroDaddy, we are fighting all the negativity!

Yes, being a parent is hard - but that isn't the whole story, so we spent some time looking at all the ways being a mom and dad is really, REALLY great.
