KLP, or Kristy Lee Peters, knows exactly how to get your kids to dance silly and make the parents' feet tap. 

KLP has been cooking up a tune since she was a kid, from featuring in that iconic Lube Mobil ad, Real Blonds 00s girl group, triple j's House Party, and she now fills out rooms for adults at night and kids by day.

The beach rules have changed: gone are the days when you could mark your territory with a towel.

Becky Lucas is one of Australia's favourite comedians. She knows how to disarm a crowd with her endearing humour and quick wit as she tries to express how she really feels about the state of the world. 

In 2023 when Becky was pregnant, she went in for a routine scan and found out that her baby had a complex heart condition that would require open heart surgery.

On top of the regular anxiety that follows the birth of a new baby, she was dealing with cardiologist appointments and constant fears about his health. Amongst the utter joy of getting to know her beautiful baby George, there were so many dark days where she didn’t feel like life could ever be good again.

Since George underwent surgery, doctors have said his heart looks pristine and he's a happy and healthy, thriving baby. Becky will worry about him forever, as every parent does, but she's going to do her best to hold that anxiety in and let him live his life as a normal kid.

Go see Becky touring her new show 'Things Have Changed, But The Essence Remains' around the country.

It's Ash's turn to update Matty J on what's been happening while he's been in the throws of the jungle. 

During a tiny blip of focus, Ash has decided to test for ADHD, which has inevitably kicked off the process of diagnosis. 

While the process has been confronting, Ash quickly discovers why being diagnosed is worthwhile.  

Meanwhile, an Aussie TV star has saved Matt's life, and Ash feels forced into doing this one thing at the park.

Megan Schutt is an Australian fast bowler who is mum to little Rylee. 

Schutt and her wife Jess became parents through the process of reciprocal IVF, where Megan's egg is fertilised using donor sperm and implanted into Jess's womb.

Despite falling pregnant quickly, Jess' pregnancy was high-risk and led to Rylee's premature birth at only 24 weeks during the height of COVID-19. 

Megan shares how her family navigated the sperm donation process, Jess' high-risk pregnancy and how they took care of Rylee after her premature birth.

Daddy Matty is recharging his batteries after spending 5 weeks in the South African jungle. Thank you for all of the support you've given Matty! 

Comedian and former podcast guest Nick Cody is stepping in to fill in the ripped dog's co-hosting seat. He shares the wild story of how he celebrated his eldest son's first birthday, how that same kid embarrassed him the other day, and the hangover parenting moments. 

As Oscar completes his first week of kindy, Ash is getting a taste of what it feels like to parent a school child (woah!). He's also trying a new bribery tactic with the kids when he's experiencing a hangover morning.

Plus, we tackle our question!

• What is the craziest tantrum you've experienced?

Slide into our DM's @twodotingdads with any parenting question you need answered by a couple of doting dads.
