    Welcome to the latest episode of the "Dad United Podcast," where we tackle the cheeky topic of "The Love of the Game - Intimacy & Time Together When You Have Kids."

    The Diet of Champions - What and how to feed kids?

    The Diet of Champions - What and how to feed kids?

    Gather 'round, folks! It's time to spill the beans (and maybe a few crisps) on the latest episode of the "Dad United Podcast"! Picture this: a bunch of blokes, fresh off the pitch, pints in hand, and ready to tackle the age-old conundrum of feeding the ankle-biters.

    In this rip-roaring episode, we're diving headfirst into the culinary chaos that is "The Diet of Champions - What and How to Feed Kids?" Think of it as a survival guide for the domestic jungle, where the battle cry is "Eat your greens or your not leaving the table!"

    From brekkie battles to lunchtime skirmishes, and the dreaded dinner dilemmas, we're sharing our favorite tactics for keeping the little sh#ts well-fed and (mostly) content. We'll be swapping tales of legendary family recipes passed down through generations, like granma's secret dessert recipes and mum's infamous veggie-laden lasagna (shh, don't tell the kids!).

    But fear not, dear listeners, for we'll also be delving into the art of veggie negotiation – because let's face it, convincing a toddler to eat broccoli is like trying to teach a goldfish to juggle. Tune in as we regale you with tales of tactical veggie camouflage, old tactics we used to dispose of veggies and all the covert ops at the dinner table.

    So, grab a pint, settle in, and prepare to laugh, cringe, and maybe even pick up a few nuggets of parenting wisdom along the way. Because when it comes to feeding kids, it's all about survival of the funniest. Cheers, mates!
