S2 Ep16: DADCAST: I don't lose my temper, the red mist does not descend - which of the Dads is lying this week?

They f**k you up, your mum and dad.        They may not mean to, but they do.   They fill you with the faults they had And add some extra, just for you. Dave was channeling his inner Philip Larkin and worrying his kids by worrying that they might worry. Confused? Don't worry, it'll all make sense. This week an expectant Dad wants to know will he suddenly not be lazy once the baby arrives, or is this it? Dave reveals that his kids were basically good sleepers so it's not going to be that hard, that doesn't go down really well. And our now weekly snip update suggests it's less painful than you might think. And we're back to scheduling. Adrian is tired and stressed by working at home and may need to make a distress call. Again. And the report of Nathan's holidays were so hot we had to use asbestos gloves.* Loads of correspondence this week - join the party, we'd love to hear from you - you can email dadcast@offtheball.com or you can leave a review on iTunes here The Pod is also on twitter @dadcastpod From now on your weekly dose of misadventures in parenting will be brought to you by Cadbury Freddo Treasures, Discover the New Freddo Treasures, The Space Series with Cadbury Dairy Milk Buttons and one surprise toy in every chest. *they may have been lost in the mists of time too.

Caked in snot and puke this is the unvarnished truth of being a Dad.
