Show Notes
Teamwork makes the dream work… allegedly. Nathan Massey is nursing a hangover and Cara De La Hoyde Massey has a bone to pick, starting with unanswered texts, a surprise sleepover at a mate's and a £90 Uber from Essex back to Kent. Somehow it all ends with a brilliant family day out in Margate.
Then it's on to this week's topic: how do you actually parent as a team? Nathan and Cara get into good cop vs bad cop, why they never undermine each other in front of the kids (well, almost never), who the kids always run to first, who'd survive longer going solo, and the never-ending battle over PlayStations, iPads and bedtime. In the debate, they confess whether they've ever hidden from their own children, and one of them has turned it into a military operation.
Plus, a special guest: Jordan Banjo, dancer, TV and radio presenter and member of the dance group Diversity, who shot to fame after winning Britain's Got Talent in 2009 alongside his brother Ashley Banjo. Now a dad of three, Jordan talks about the real cost of back to school, how to be resourceful when kids won't stop growing, why after-school clubs matter, and his very honest vasectomy experience.
And in "We Heard From You," your poll results are in: do kids ruin the mood, should you take them out of school for holidays, and should Nathan get the snip? Presented by Nathan Massey and Cara De La Hoyde Massey.

Ant opens up about man-cave surrender, the different flavour of chaos that comes with raising two girls, and the guilt and compromises of trying to give his kids everything while balancing life on tour. The gang also hashes out a thorny one in The Courtroom — a listener doesn't want her sister-in-law babysitting the kids, but is she protecting her family or just holding a grudge? — plus the usual outrageous listener confessions.
