Can you imagine if men had to give birth? There would be a national day of rest. rioting in the streets. maybe even a senate inquiry...

Podcaster, author & father of two Ash Wicks joins us in the baby bubble for a painful conversation.

Yep, this doting dad walks us through the time he got a vasectomy, and other fatherhood-related stories.

If you hadn't heard, babies generate a lot of waste. Like, more waste than we care to admit.

So naturally swinging from one extreme (environmental disaster) to another (zero waste) should be a seamless, obvious choice, right?

WRONG. This week Veronica Milsom reminds us about the time she tried to raise her second baby... waste free.

Warning: this episode contains something called elimination communication (look, idk...)

Last season Clare regaled us with a story about her husband's standing ovation at a cafe for... *checks notes* being a dad? (you can hear that here)

And we fear today, Jordan Watson is about to do something similar.

Known for his highly entertaining instructional videos on how to dad Jordan wants to tell us about the times he's "solo dadded".

We looked it up, not a real verb.
