The podcast where we discuss all things dad - In this episode i chat to Matty an old school friend. Matty has 2 sons as do i and of very similar age. The first part of this conversation is about fatherhood, how Matty found it, the challenges he had and the difference when having his second child. Matty talks about his 6 year old son being assessed on the Autism pathway and some of the difficulties that come with that. The challenges of his second son arriving ' if he had been our first, he would of been our last '. We briefly discuss the V word ( yes, vasectomy ) 

The second part of our conversation in this episode is more focussed on Matty's change of career, working within sales jobs and eventually making the decision to go to university and study Sports therapy and Physiotherapy. It might not be as difficult as people think to go back into education and retrain when having a family. We talk about Matty working within football at non league clubs, within academies and having a stint abroad in Sweden working with full time pros.

A solo episode checking in, how are you doing? 

A slightly sleep deprived ( almost subdued ) episode checking in with you, updates on the YouTube channel, upcoming kids half term holidays, Halloween, schedule for new episodes, baby weaning, Dad life, podcast merch... 

I recently attended the Let's talk dads conference 2021 which has an array of support and guest speakers supporting dads. 

I'm working hard to bring new episode and new guests, scheduling proving troublesome as everybody gets back to normal life and Dad life continues to unfold.

I chat to family friend Lee who lives in Iowa USA, We trade some dad stories from across the pond. Lee is a first time dad to a 1 year old little boy, this is the first real chance we have had to chat since i visited with my family in summer 2019, we talk about how Lee has found it becoming a father, how life has been over past year or 2, dad hobbies - hunting, archery, whiskey, BBQ & travel. 

What future plans Lee and family have, how their summer activities compares to ours - i think they win with the weather and general parenting goals of raising happy healthy kids.
