Two Doting Dads is a podcast series that follows the parenting escapades of two good mates, Matty J and Ash Wicks. Like all good modern relationships, they met on Instagram and instantly bonded over the fact that they were both sleep-deprived Dads doing their best to dote over their two children. They share a very laid-back style to parenting, they don't pretend to be experts and they celebrate every single parenting mishap (which there are plenty). If you're listening for parenting advice, you've come to the wrong podcast.

#150 Mum Wicks Is In The House!

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/fa326977-3de5-4283-9b8b-af3500c58607/clips/1f2a8e6d-fad9-460e-9cdb-b2f800539c5f/transcript

 It's a heavy ep today but an important one. 

Ash opens up about his sobriety journey now he's made it to day 100... a milestone he and Matt weren’t sure he’d reach.

Ash stopped drinking simply to have a break - but what it unleashed is something bigger than he could've ever imagined and now he's not sure he can go back. It’s a really honest and, at times, emotional chat. We touch on mental health and some of the struggles he’s faced along the way.

Importantly though, Ash is in a really good headspace right now and this is him reflecting on some of the tougher times. As always, we’re super proud of him and grateful he felt comfortable sharing it with you all.

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/fa326977-3de5-4283-9b8b-af3500c58607/clips/4714bf23-435b-4dbe-9c31-b40e0189120e/transcript

The guys are lucky they can bring you the pod this week after a near brawl with podcast rivals at a recent awards night.

The boys live to tell the tale AND there's footage of how it all went down - you won't believe who started it!

Plus Ash is unlocking core memories with Oscar lately and it's CUTE AF!

While Matt's recent outing to the zoo uncovered his secret spite for Laura's plans to go wrong.

And the guys answer more of your Doter Dilemmas:
Do your kids have to invite kids to their party that invited them to theirs?
Going from 1 to 2 kids - how hard is it really?!

#210 An Awards Night Fight & A Risky Seal Show

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/fa326977-3de5-4283-9b8b-af3500c58607/clips/90d9e1e8-63eb-463c-8a74-b40800a0277a/transcript

We know author & comedian Tanya Hennessy has been open about her struggles to become a mum, but we didn't know she'd been secretly pining to come on the podcast but couldn't because she wasn't a mum yet.

Well she's put an end to that because after seven years and seven rounds of IVF she's now enjoying motherhood with her beautiful baby Scottie.

Tanya reveals why it's been hard complaining about sleep deprivation when she's been part of the infertility community for so long.

Plus the juggle of being a working mum with a stay-at-home dad and the things you definitely shouldn't say to her if you see her in the street.
