In this powerful conversation with men's mental health charity Little Blackbird, we dive into why vulnerability isn't weakness - its strength. From the pressure to 'man up' to the freedom of opening up, we explore how dads and men everywhere can break the silence, share their struggles, and find real connection.

Hey guys! This episode is a little different as the team experiment with going visual. Yep, you heard it - JRD is letting you see what goes on during a record! Literally watching this space! And why not tackle an easy topic??

The boys talk about masculinity, misogyny and a little bit of emotional intelligence! Wowsers!

Thanks for listening, get in touch and see us on YOUTUBE next episode.

A quick catch up with most of the team, talking about paternity leave and all its twists, turns and possibilities. Si's getting ready for some quality father-son time, Glenn's getting ready for an empty nest and Ryan's not sure what he's getting ready for - he'll be happy with just knowing what day of the week it is!! And Stu? Well, he's busy being a legend of a husband, putting his wife first.

Thanks for listening! Give us a shout on the socials and if you see us at a beer festival, say hi in person!

This episode, the dads talk about the significance of your kids seeing you disagree and (more importantly) make up. We talk about how important it is to be transparent and to show your kids that it's not about who is right, but more that everything is put right in the end. And, for the first time ever, we're recording from actual, real-life Beer Heroes itself! All this and Ryan throws in a bit of an impromptu competition - the generosity is endless!

So, settle down, relax, and enjoy an episode with your favourite Just Real Dads...

The Christmas Episode!

Can't believe we're bringing you another Christmas special already! In a year that sometimes felt 2024 days long, we've been up, down and all levels in between!

This episode, the boys talk about ways to preserve the 'light' of Christmas, ready for 2025.

Thanks for listening! God bless, have an awesome Christmas and here's to a new year full of joy, peace and dadness!

JRD 😁🎅

We're back with the first of the new season, and we're tackling a big one - friendships. As usual, we keep it real and we know we'll only scratch the surface, but it's a proverbial minefield!!

Beers, as always, supplied by Beer Heroes - it's a Delirium special - and chat delivered by your boys at.....Just Real Dads!!

In our summer episode, we talk about school holidays, plans for the summer, beer (no surprise there!), eyesight and a bit of parenting.

Look out for some stuff on the socials and look forward to next season, apparently, with the an added member to the JRD family.

Have a great summer and thanks as always for giving us a listen. Cheers!

This episode, the boys are talking dollars, cash, coin, wonga, eh....Moolah? No, not even Stu's that old! It's about the money - pocket money to be precise.

Si has a dilemma and your boys are here to offer their usual level of support, advice and ridicule! We talk amounts, chores and reasons - and Glenn contemplates a raise for Beth!

As always, if you want to get in touch, you know where we are! Thanks for listening.

We're back for a bit of a catch up with beers as always provided by our good friends at Beer Heroes - Si picked them, so they're his fault! We chat about how 'dad' we are, how we're doing, how Glenn's true love is and Si has some fairly sizeable news.
