We’re back!!! The 2025 Unhelpful Parenting Podcast is here – back from holidays with an episode full of fun and laughs! Talking parent news and the worst parenting advice you’ve received!
Here’s what’s coming up:
First, we do a mini-catch up on holidays – and what vacation with kids can be like (anyone else more exhausted afterwards?!) and Bec shares a funny dad story of Sam’s.
Sam jumps in with a few dad jokes to kick off the year – but accidentally has the unbelievable moment of not only putting his foot in his mouth – but making the worst husband comment ever that has landed him in the dog house for eternity…(well, for now).
He quickly tries to change the subject and we are back with parents in the news (that he likes to call ‘random ass facts by Bec’) where we share the funny stories from the news that are related to parent life – but also wouldn’t be the typical news headlines you’d normally find.
This week the parent news includes Jelly Cats at the centre of a crime spree (and organised crime!) and googly eye trains and googly eyes on sculptures!
Then we share the answers you sent in to the question: What’s the worst parenting advice you’ve ever received?
To preface, we did not expect so many hotly debated topics (although we probably should have!), and have kept away from parenting advice about discipline styles, vaccinations and other hot topics like religion (remember- we are here to make you laugh and NOT be helpful!).
So while we try and keep the comedy train going and laughing through the bad parenting advice – we share some of the 250+ responses we were sent in!
The call is out there for the next episode where we will share the funniest things pregnant moms have cried over – and the random pregnancy cravings they’ve had (Dad’s and partners you can still share too!).
