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.

#66 Are You Going To Dirty Talk.... Or Not?
Happy Mother's Day! We adore you, and yes, we would not be here without you.
❤️❤️❤️
The Wicks spend a weekend away from the kids and decide to bring a carry-on friend with them for the trip. Can they get it through customs, though?
Oscar has learnt a new phrase except he doesn't realise how rude he is!
Matt treats Laura to the highly coveted parent sleep-in but reckons she's getting way more sleep than she thinks. Daddy J also has a new hack to convince Lola to love him and we're not sure how long he can keep up this new hack...

#64 BONUS Doting Mum Kat Clark
Kat Clark is truly a force to be reckoned with.
With a platform boasting millions of followers across social media and a thriving skincare business, Kaladé, which she co-runs with her daughters Latisha and Deja.
After falling pregnant at the young age of 17, Kat found herself in an abusive relationship, disconnected from her family on an island north of Queensland.
Thankfully, she was able to escape her situation, start her life anew, and rebuild it to what it is today.
We're immensely grateful to Kat for bravely sharing her story, and we encourage our dads to speak out about violence against women.

#63 Dad Voice Activated
Matt has had to activate the almighty dad voice to a group of young teens at the footy this week. It's safe to say it put the fear of god into them.
Are you a family that loves a good hand-me-down? Well, Ash does, and as a rare treat, he's surprised Macy with something new that she can't take off, even during bathtime.
Speaking of bathtime, Marley dropped a bombshell during her night routine that shocked the Johnson household after she shared some new words she learned at daycare.

#62 Juggling Parent Life, Anniversaries and Raspberry Kisses With Laura Byrne
OUR KIDS BOOK IS FINALLY AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER HERE!
Guess who's made her way onto the podcast, FINALLY.
Laura Byrne, Matt's lovely wife, is in the house, and it looks like Ash is third wheeling for this week's episode.
The Johnson family have a new family member they'd like to introduce you to. Lola has shoved something up her nose, and Laura shares how she juggles mum's life, work and wife's life.
Ash also has a dilemma on his hands – which anniversary should you celebrate? Wedding or First Date?

Customer Reviews
Laughs
Been listening since the beginning before having a kid!
I’m just so grateful for the laughs.
Doting nanny
Appreciate the laughs and hatred that Ash has. Thanks for keepin it real
Love these Dads!
I recently stumbled upon Ash’s instagram with his very relatable content on Instagram and immediately had to give him a follow. To my happiest surprise, he has a podcast with Matty J! I have almost entirely no business with the podcast - I’m an American 30 year old woman with no kids, and no ties to Australia. That didn’t stop me from bending over from laughter at almost every podcast while bingeing it for 3 days straight. I can definitely relate to the marriage banter they have! Their humor is right up my alley, the cruder the better. I love their common-sense and no-nonsense conversations, great guests, hilarious stories of their families, and doting dad “advice”. We’re all just trying to get through life together, might as well laugh!
