The Parenting Hangover

Episode 12! Jordan has just returned from a week away at school camp with his eldest. How much, if any, has camp changed from when we were kids? And what does it take to be selected as a camp dad in this highly competitive parenting age? Turns out Jordan has a secret dad-weapon. We also try and figure out why Clint is so anti-camping? 

Plus some amazing back-in-my-day about the *unique* discipline techniques used on you as a kid.

Jordan and Clint discuss who is good cop/bad cop in their marriages when it comes to laying down the law, and how best to diffuse a toddler tantrum.

On episode ten the boys discuss the taboo topic of saying out loud “I hope this baby is a boy/girl”. Why is that such a weird thing to do? Also, is there any way, scientifically or otherwise to influence the outcome? Jordan was given a very strange “recipe” with some bizarre instructions for conceiving a boy, and we will read it out. Plus we discuss the differences between girl-dadding and boy-dadding.

On episode nine, we go deep on kids' parties! Clint is just days on from a four-year-old birthday bash, and Jordan has organised about 20 across his dad-career. We ask how hard out should you go when planning a party for a child? Is there a risk of setting the bar too high? And who are those ultra styled, instagram-worthy parties really for, the kid or the parents?

Plus some incredible home remedies shared from last week for BACK IN MY DAY.

On episode eight, we discuss the trials and tribulations of sick kids. Man winter is brutal for kids getting sick! And, then, us getting sick too. So what do people do to prevent it, or even to cure it? And what did our parents do back in their day?

We're talking home remedies, stocking up on vitamins, and (controversially) peeing in your own eye...

On episode seven, it's all about SLEEP! We ask the question – who needs more sleep – a newborn baby, or a hungover dad who had a big night at the rugby? We use no scientific evidence of any kind to convince you that it’s the dads!

We look back at all the crazy tools, techniques and technology we used to get that all important sleep for our kids in the early days – blackout blinds, shushing machines and special sleep holds. What worked and what was a total waste of money?

On episode six, it’s all about kids and technology. We discuss why on earth do kids need smartphones?? Is there an age under which they are more harm than good? And why as a parent you need to “make NO great again”.

Plus, one of these dads may have been busted by the kids doing that thing that mums and dads do in private from time to time...how very awkward!

On episode five, one member of The Parenting Hangover is welcoming a new pet to the family, while one is saying goodbye. The boys discuss introducing a new animal to your kids, and how to talk to them about their pets passing away. Jordan harks back to his rural roots and discusses bringing his pet lamb to school and the boys ask “what ever happened to that weird day at school where you made fruit and vege sculptures with toothpicks?”.

Plus, we discuss why Mums are so good at organising to meet up with each other to socialize, and dads suck at it so much?!

On episode four, the boys ask the question: Do Dads gain baby weight too? Did we? And what does science say on the topic?? It's a very honest yarn about the state of our rigs since having kids that devolves into full man-crush mode on one of NZ's most ripped Dads. Also Jordan scored a massive own-goal with his kids revealing their "brand new" bike was actually a massive hand me down.

Plus your stories from episode three about who nearly ruined the birth! Strap in, it's a goodie.

On episode three, the boys enter the seldom talked-about world of “Dads at the Birth.” Yes it’s all about Mum, but did you ever wonder what do Dads do, think and feel when the baby is arriving? And why did Jordan eat all the birth snacks in the first 10 minutes?? 

Plus we review your vasectomy horror stories. Strap in!!
