Two Doting Dads is a podcast series that follows the parenting escapades of two good mates, Matty J and Ash Wicks.

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

What Not To Say To Kids In A Park

Two Doting Dads with Matty J & Ash ·

2024/01/30

We start this episode with an update regarding Lola's hatred of her dad - the poor, desperate, lonely Matty J. You know which dad has kids that don't hate him - Ash. It might be because he's an all-round great guy or maybe it's the fact that he's saved his kids countless times from the ferocious animals that reside in Warriewood (geckos). Also worth noting that he caught and released a mouse during the week. Doctor Dolittle eat ya heart out. Matt found himself in an awkward situation at the park

Why You Should Never Give Someone A Soggy Doggy

2024/01/16

WE'RE BACK BABY ! Matt's transition into Ash has continued as he realised that Christmas is actually the most stressful time of the year and he's happy to see the back of it. The fact that he and Laura decided to remove Lola's dummy during this month might have had something to do with it. For reference, it's going terribly. As you can imagine, Ash had a lovely time with his extended family during Christmas. As he always says - the more family, the better! Nan had nothing but praise in regards to

Ash has had another run in with a mouth salesman (dentist) who tried to sell in a crown for Oscar. Not on Ash's watch! Just when Matt thought the meltdowns were ending, a lovely family

Lots to get through in this ep - she's bloody jammed packed! Firstly, Ash's haemorrhoids are back and he's shittng out leaves. We've launched the world's (unofficial) sexiest calendar - Choreplay 2024. Entering the calendar industry hasn't been smooth sailing e.g we left it bloody late to get them printed before Christmas, printed prices are at an all time high and being sexy for 12 photos is exhausting. Good news is that there's still a few left online if you want to be slightly aroused. Matt gets

2023/11/27

Ash has just returned from a relaxing little weekend away with some families from his mother's group. Whilst he was on the shitter, he noticed a strange note on the door in front of him. Turns out, the house they were staying out was stricter than a nun's convent. The most important rule? Never talk about the rules on a parenting podcast, which Ash was happy to break. Matt also had a weekend away, however something happened that shook him to his core. He was out-daded by another dad. Both Marlie and

Daycare - what the hell would we do without this glorious organisation that helps give parents all across the world their weekly relief? Although, as much as we love her, she's not without her pains.
