  • Top 5% and Honestly Not Shocked

    I don’t normally leave reviews, but Spotify Wrapped has called me out, I’m in the top 5% of Two Doting Dads listeners. Honestly, I hear Ash and Matt more than I hear my own husband… and we live in the same house. My husband and I listen religiously. It’s become our unofficial parenting debrief..cheaper than therapy and way funnier. These two make you feel seen, remind you you’re not completely losing the plot, and give you the kind of belly laugh you need after a day of negotiating with tiny ter... more

As a Mum, I had many people I could turn to when things got hard. It is so nice to hear the new generation of Dads willing to share their experiences of parenting and other big, life moments. A pro... more

    Long time listener since day 1 and Matty J’s begging/threatening has finally gotten to me 😆

    Thank you for validating pretty much every feeling I’ve had raising two little people and making it hilarious coming from the dad’s point of view! It’s a fabulous pod cast that keeps me company on the long drives to work 😀
