About this listen

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.2025 Matty J & Ash Parenting & Families Relationships

  • # 183 A dog poo disaster and a life-changing dinner hack
    Nov 11 2025

    We're into another chaotic week with the kids but this time it's Buster who's in the naughty corner.

    Ash shares why his daughter's hunger has no bounds, even when it comes to saving the seals and Matt reveals how he became the innocent victim of a water gun attack.

    The boys learn what the actual meaning of 'Baby on Board' means, plus a listener has shared what could be the greatest dinner-time hack of all time (and could save your sanity at the dinner table).

    Aaaaand the countdown to Christmas is well and truly on with the boys debating whether it's too early to be putting the tree up - if at all!

    The silly season is officially here and we're leaning into it - so strap yourselves in, it's going to be a wild ride.

  • #182 Lunchbox Notes, Fake Feet, Throwing Out Important Things
    Nov 4 2025

    Matty J's wife, Laura, has been accused of throwing out an expensive bottle that belongs to producer Jess (it has a metal top, mind you!) Should she be blamed for this horrible act, though?

    Speaking of throwing out important things. Who in your household has the desire of someone who wants to live in a museum? Ash complains about losing items to the tip.

    It's also Grandparents' Day, and Matty J had to step in for Nana, as she has found herself in the hospital again.

    The boys also check in with former guest and friend of the show, Hugo Toovey, to hear how he's faring post what we hope will be his last major surgery.

    To top off a chaotic week with the kids, Marlie-Mae leaves Daddy a sweet Lunchbox note that brings everyone to tears.
