Number 1: #259 Ash & April - His Sobriety, Her Side Of The Story
This might just be one of our most emotional episodes yet. We’ve heard Ash’s sobriety story - the pain, the struggles and the voices in his head but today we hear from the person who was there through all of it: April. From their binge-drinking teenage years, through their 20's and into parenthood, to Ash making the life-changing decision to give alcohol up in his 30's, April has had a front-row seat. She opens up about what she did, what she didn’t do and what she’s learned about supporting someone through addiction without losing themselves in the process. It’s a raw, honest and incredibly vulnerable conversation that gives us a whole new look at their relationship, built on love, trust, honesty and a whole lot of hope. There are some seriously powerful takeaways about marriage, parenting, addiction and what it really means to stand beside someone when life gets hard. We hope you love this one as much as we do. If you need help with addiction you can call Lifeline on 1800 250 015 or you can find resources here. ______________________________________________________________________________ If you need a shoulder to cry on: Two Doting Dads Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/639833491568735/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheTwoDotingDads Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/twodotingdads/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@twodotingdads See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Number 2: #256 Someone Stop The Parenting Police
This week, the guys are recovering from Book Week - the annual tradition of parents spending far too much time and money making costumes their children will wear once before deciding they hate them. Who has the time when there are more parenting dilemmas to deal with?! This week the boys attempt to answer (but not give advice) on: Is it OK to ask another parent not to swear? How do you tell a friend you don’t want your kids playing with their constantly sick kids? Should you buy a present for siblings to avoid birthday disappointment? Plus, the guys weigh in on Oreo-gate and discuss what parents should actually be doing with their kids instead of telling each other off. Because apparently parenting wasn’t already complicated enough. ______________________________________________________________________________ You can grab a copy of Ash's new book The Secret Ingredient here.

Number 3: #258 Gen Muir Is Back With Some Boundaries!
Our favourite parenting expert Gen Muir is back, and the guys waste absolutely no time using her as their own personal parenting hotline. The Oracle has also somehow found the time to write a whole new book, this one about boundaries, so naturally she kicks off by setting a few with the guys. This ep is packed with genuinely brilliant advice: the one question every parent should ask themselves before setting a boundary, why modern parenting feels so bloody confusing and what to do when your kids push back. Basically, Gen is back to make us all feel slightly more capable of parenting our children once again. You can buy her new book here or follow her daily wisdom here. ______________________________________________________________________________ You can grab a copy of Ash's new book The Secret Ingredient here.

Number 4: #257 The Magpie Ruining My Mental Health
The guys are back and they’ve fallen straight into silly mode this week. It starts with a roly-poly show from Macy-Moo, before Ash gets into a crazy water fight with a magpie threatening his mental health walks. Matt has a hack for tired parents trying to keep their future plans in sight while stuck on the parenting hamster wheel, while also realising Poppy has entered the hardest parenting season yet. His angel baby is on the move. Plus, with Father’s Day approaching, the guys get some very revealing messages from their kids about what they’re really like as dads. And, of course, more of your best parenting lies, thanks to OMO Capsules. ______________________________________________________________________________ You can grab a copy of Ash's new book The Secret Ingredient here.

Number 5: #254 Dr Golly & The Life-Saving Rule Every Parent Should Know
This week the guys sit down with the baby whisperer himself, Dr Golly, Baby Bunting's newest ambassador. Dr Golly has spent the last 20 years as a paediatrician, but he said it was becoming a dad himself that gave him his biggest lessons in the job because he realised just how hard babies can and how much they can shake up the entire family dynamic. So, for the past decade, he’s gone deep on baby sleep and helping families work out what to do when nobody’s sleeping. This is a must-listen for any parent who’s ever stood over a sick kid at 2am wondering, “Do we need the hospital… or are we being dramatic?” Plus, Dr Golly puts the guys through the ultimate mental load test to find out whether they’re actually sharing the load at home… or just think they are. And Dr Golly is giving $20 off all his online courses, use promocode: 2DOTINGDADS20 expires 31/12/2026. _____________________________________________________________________________ If you need a shoulder to cry on: Two Doting Dads Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/639833491568735/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheTwoDotingDads Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/twodotingdads/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@twodotingdads See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
