Love it and working through them all!

I am late to finding this podcast and wish I had listened during lockdown! I’m now back to beginning and listening to the lockdown woes again, what a time to remember! Makes me laugh out loud all day long, thank you for being amazing and honest :) more than one child is such a mental world to live in!

Juliette-Marie ,

Love this pod but….

I’m a huge fan of this pod BUT..Rob,PLEASE stop talking over Josh &interrupting him .
I’ve been listening for years however, this talking over Josh is getting worse with every passing pod.
Josh, tell him to shut up lol

Podcasts_rule! ,

Rob, let Josh speak

Why has Rob increasingly started dominating the episodes and talking over Josh?? Perhaps its a natural / chosen dynamic - but it feels like Rob’s podcast and Josh is his assistant. Balance again pleeeeease!
