- 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.

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. - 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.

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. - This week Ash opens up about something he’s NEVER told anyone and it all stems from this week’s breaking news about testicular pain. It’s got to be heard to be believed!
Meanwhile, Matt is getting an early start on the spring clean, trying to offload furniture he’s shocked no one wants to buy… or even take for free.
He’s also in the trenches helping the girls with their homework, putting their public-speaking skills to the test.
Plus Ash has a hack to give your glow-in-the-dark ooshies a glow-up and something Oscar does in his sleep makes him think he might actually be a good dad after all.
And more parenting lies to keep in your back pocket for the week ahead.

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. - 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.

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. - This week, April leaves town and Ash quickly discovers how much she's holding the family operation together after the kids come dangerously close to burning the house down.
The guys admit they both use a questionable tactic to get the kids on side - in fact it could even be a parenting hack to use whenever things get desperate.
Meanwhile, Matt's battling parent guilt after his day alone with Poppy somehow turned into a struggle just to leave the house.
Plus, the guys declare war on ice packs. When did they become the cure for every minor inconvenience?
And more of your brilliant parenting lies, thanks to OMO. Because life with kids is messy enough already.

About Two Doting Dads with Matty J & Ash
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.
