The Parenting Hangover

Our guest this week is Taylor Calmus, AKA Dude Dad! Taylor is a Colorado based content creator with millions of followers that posts videos all about has family life. Think "American How-To-Dad". We talk child birth, vasectomies, raising people, the benefits of remarrying your wife and boats(?!) It's a ripper - go follow @dudedad everywhere and enjoy this episode!!

Clint has a big bike riding update, and you guys had a lot to say about why kids prefer mum to dad. Just a mini ep this week as we have a lot of pots of the boil - three big guests in the coming weeks that we are chipping away at - watch this space! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A true right of passage for both kids and parents - learning (and teaching someone) how to ride a bike is something that will stay with you forever! Jordan has got three kids successfully riding on two wheels, and Clint is about to enter the teaching stage. Speaking of teachers...boy did we piss them off last week! So this week, an apology, of sorts. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week we discuss our plans for Easter. You think it's all chocolate and hot crossed buns but when you have kids it's more like a mini school holidays in the middle of the term! And speaking of hot crossed buns - JORDAN DOESN'T LIKE THEM?!? Bombshell. Plus cleaning robots and why the hell should you have to buy your primary aged kid a laptop??

It's been a few weeks so today we're having a full catch up on our family lives. Clint needs help organising a birthday party for Maggie the 3 year old and Jordan has been on a weather affected school camp. Jordan's in full DIY dad mode painting the house and Clint is preparing to parent without a functioning kitchen for a month. We've got a bit on, so let's chat! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jordan and his cage trailer are away on a week-long school camp, so we don't have a fresh episode for you this week! Instead we are going to flash back to September last year where we discussed making time for date nights as busy parents, and realised neither of us actually do it! We'll be back with a fresh ep next week - see you then! ------------------------------------------------------------ ZM's Clint Roberts and Jordan “How-To-Dad" Watson bring you the brand-new podcast, The Parenting Hangover! Parenting ain't easy. It's all sorts of good, bad and ugly, and you definitely don't want to be told by anyone else 'how to be a parent'. Well, you're in the right place! We are definitely not parenting experts - we're wingin' it, bluffing it, just like you. On TPH we'll share the funny, crazy and chaotic bits that make it all worthwhile.

Hamish joins us for an extended chat about how he, and his partner Zoe, parent their two kids - Rudy, six, and Sonny, nine.
