Alex already has kids. Scott is still working out how to baby proof a house without crying. But together, they’re back for Episode 2! This week, it’s all about prepping for life with a baby… with several unnecessary detours.

We tackle the big questions:

• Hangovers — can dads still have them, or is that a pre-baby luxury?
• Baby-proofing — what actually keeps a tiny human alive?
• Pre-birth surgery… for dads? (Yes, this is somehow a real discussion.)
• Rescue cats — are they worth it?

We read out your feedback from Episode 1, fan favourite Word of the Week returns, Alex goes on a tangent that involves Jurassic Park 2, Scott's actual favourite movie of all time (not Jurassic Park 2), and whether he really contacted the producer of Back to the Future. Spoiler: he has emails.

All that plus unsolicited advice, questionable life choices, and a reminder to gamble responsibly.

Funny, chaotic, and occasionally informative, this is parenting from the dad side, and whatever Scott is doing.

-------------------------------------

Alex has two kids. Scott would like some.

Together, they’re figuring out parenting one questionable decision at a time.

My Friend Had a Baby is the podcast where two mates explore what it really takes to make and raise tiny humans, from a dad’s point of view. With a mix of personal stories, real-time learning, and expert guests who actually know what they're talking about, you’ll get honest insights into pregnancy, birth, and parenting… without taking any of it too seriously.

Funny, thoughtful, and surprisingly informative, this show is for dads, mums, parents-to-be, or anyone who’s ever met a baby and wondered, “How do people do this?”

Nothing in this podcast should be considered personal or professional advice.
