Starting point is 00:00:27 The forward government still isn't investing in public schools. Six years of cuts mean our students aren't getting the supports they need. They can't wait another year. If the forward government won't change, it's time to change the government. Our kids are counting on us. Join us at Building Better Schools.C.A. A message from the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario. Hello, I'm Josh Riddickham. And I'm Robbeckin. Welcome to Lockdown Parenting Hell. The show in which Rob and I discuss what it's like to be a parent during lockdown, which I would say can be a little tricky. And to make a little tricky. So in an effort to make some kind of sense of the current situation,
Starting point is 00:01:15 and to make me feel better about my increasingly terrible parenting skills. Each episode will be chatting to a famous parent about how well they're coping. Or hopefully not. And we will be hearing from you the listener with your tales of lockdown parenting woe. Because let's be honest, none of us know what we're doing. Hello and welcome to lockdown parenting hell with Ruby can you say Rob Beckett? Rob Beckett and Josh Widdicum. There we go that is Ruby that isett. And Josh Whiddickum. There we go.
Starting point is 00:01:48 That is Ruby, who is probably, I'd say one and a half. It's my friend's child, so I'm not exactly sure. Oh, I thought you was guessing from the voice. Oh, no, no, no, no, I was guessing from the age. Do you want a good way to guess the age of a kid right? It's when you when you see a key for it I can't look at how old that kid is right because some are bigger than other some are smaller for their age is the hair the length of the hair that is the givea. Yes. You see the tiny little one with like hair their their the their their the the the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. the. the. the. the. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. the. the. the. the. the.

Starting point is 00:02:28 She's basically got a Rachel. Is this to- Hold on, they give her a proper hair. No, I don't. I think she's got a natural Rachel. It's like, oh, what a, what, what, what, that girl is just going to be, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th, the, th, th, th, th, th, th. that, that, that, th. th. that, she's, she's, she's, she's, she's, she's, she's, she's, she's, she's, she's, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, the, she, the, the, the, the, th....... th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. that, th. that, th. th. th. that, th. th. that, that, she's, she's, she's, she's, she's, she's, jealous of, imagine just, yeah, my hair is naturally a Rachel. I mean you're 25 years too late, but it's still. Yeah, it'll come back around with it. They always do. Josh, you're all right, how's it going? Well, I will come to that, but we should say that we're
Starting point is 00:02:55 doing a bit of a change of format, aren't we, Rob? Oh yeah. We've had some a number of meetings, we've got in a their. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. to to to to to to come, to come to come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come to come come come come. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

It all that, you know, we've been, all the big Whigs have been involved and we've decided to change it up. That's not really true either, is it? That's not how it works at all, is it? No, explain what's happened, Josh. Last week, we had a bit of problem with the tech on an interview, so in the end, we had to put the interview out on the Friday and the one, the one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one...... And, the one, the one, the one, the one, the one, the one of them were the record numbers for that day. So it turned, we would like, oh, yeah, people must prefer it this way. There's a happy accident. It's like when Warren Buffett bought Coca-Cola and raised the price by a penny and loads.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Is that right? Because he sells so many, so they just increased profits by like hundreds of millions. Oh, there we go. It's just went up a couple a a the the the th by a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a couple a th th th th exactly like that except for the hundreds of millions situation. No no it sort of just went up a couple of hundred people, a couple hundred people but that's good though isn't it so now we've realized and also if we do the interview someone on a Friday it gives us four days in the week to find someone an interview. Exactly exactly, exactly mate. It's good to know at the end of lockdown too. It's to th. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I thi thi thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. thi. thi. thi. that's that's that's that's thi. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the tho. It's the tho. It's tho. It's tho. It's tho. It's that's that's the. It's to know at the end of lockdown too. We have just worked out how to do a lockdown podcast.
Starting point is 00:04:07 It is, isn't it? I mean, do you remember, Rob, when we used to do two interviews a week? What a couple of fucking idiots? Mad, mad bastards. Well, who did we think we were? Two people a week a week to that struggle. We should just save them for months and months. What a waste of people?
Starting point is 00:04:27 What a waste of people? We were young and excited and stuck indoors, who only was allowed out for an hour. We had time. Are we going to be called? I've apparently, Boris has been announcing it's back to tears, yeah, no more lockdowns. So should we call it like the tier hell? Tier hell? Yeah, it doesn't really work as well, does it? I don't know. The whole, the whole name thing does feel like, but you know when like a band's like stuck with a bad name that like, yeah, that like doesn't work for them
Starting point is 00:04:56 anymore. You're like, Arctic monkeys don't change their name, do they? I'm sure they? Do you know what I mean? In a way like's a bit of a nostalgia isn't it that it's lockdown parenting hell or we could call it just LPH. LPH. Should we start calling it LPH? Oh I I'd say that's my primary income. I would say sole income. No. But I would say it really, at a moment, it's really, you know, smoothing off a few cracks. I'd say the microphone I spent £100 on six months ago is probably the best investment I've ever made, including property. Yeah, and if you like upgrade from 56K modem, it'll be excellent with Bob. Because the technical problem, we add the technical problem, don't try and blind our listeners
Starting point is 00:05:51 shit with jargon, your internet shit, bottom line. Yeah, that is the bottom line. You've ordered a cable and it's coming next week. Well, you said, Rob, you said a internet company have been in touch with you because they'd heard on this podcast that your internet was bad. Yeah, I had a phone call from Skye because Skye do my internet which I must say and I'm not being paid to say this their internet is top notch. Okay, I don't have a problem. I've never had a problem. I should be clear I've got Sky as well and yeah. Yeah. Really well they said they ruble. They're they run. Well they said they said they said they said they said they said they said they said they said they said they said they said they said they said they said they said they said they said they said they said they said they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they said they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they th th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi they they was like, fine. And then they went, oh, because the management have said that they heard on a podcast complain about your internet. I went, no, that's not me. That's Josh Winnockum. But anyway, on the phone call, they said I could actually make mine even better. I've got so much upload, download. So what, she, also, I'm not into my internet space,
Starting point is 00:06:48 but she was just like, oh wow. Rob, you are gonna get, I just said all these numbers. And I don't know what I mean, but I was like absolutely vibing after the phone call. I've never felt so proud, but I've done nothing. I'm putting Well they said ring, they said ring up Sky. What me ring them? How dare you? They they wrung you! Well, what could I say Josh? I've got they've got my number. But I work, I do a bit more sky work than you. I'm part of the firm. Do you know,
Starting point is 00:07:14 the problem is obviously that they have phoned me but it hasn't gone through due to the patchy signal that I get inside. Yeah exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. they. they. they'll they'll their. they'll they'll their. they'll th. th. th. they'll th. th. th. they'll th. they'll they're they're th. th. thi. th. they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they they they they they they they they're they they they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thooo. thooo. th. they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're through due to the patchy signal that I get inside my house. Yeah, exactly. Well, they'll sort you out, Josh, and I think, you know, there's loads of things they could do for you. Anyway, this isn't a, this isn't an internet podcast, though, is it? We need to try and get back to some sort of form of parenting. How's, how's it going? Because I've got an interesting. the interesting, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, th. It's, th. It's, th. It's, th. It's, th. It's, th. It's, th. It's, th. It's, th. It's, th. It's, th. It's, th. It's, thi, thi, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, thi. th. th. thi. thi. thoooo. th. thooo. th. th. th. th. th. I didn't realize it. The last thing we were just talking about like I think I'm a celebrity two days before so it's been no pre-chat and you just said at 533 AM getting rid of dummy worst week of my life and I know you must have been in a world of a pain because there's no grammar there and if anyone knows anything about the stiff-neck widow you love grammar you love grammar in a text. Exactly exactly perfectly punctuated text you write your text like a will nothing is you know out of place.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Genuinely I was writing that text like it was a will um but what's been happening there? The worst week of your life? I'd say since last Monday evening, this has been the worst week of parenting since those mad early days. Yes, yeah, the sort of when it's just carnage, first few weeks. Yeah, but the thing about the early days is you know that you're stuck in it and this is it, and then you can get out of it. The thing about getting rid of the dummy, so I'm going to give you the whole saga, but essentially what's most galling about it, which you don't have when you have a one-week-old, is you know that there's an out, that you can stop this pain happening at any point. All you need to do is give up on getting rid of the dummy. Yes. And you are back on
Starting point is 00:09:05 Easy Street. So, so I'll go back to the start, shall I? Yeah. So we've been meaning to do this, but things keep coming up. You know when like things are happening and you're like, oh, we'll just kick that can down the road. I'll be honest. What's quite galling is the week before we got rid of the dummy we'd reached the stage where she did three wake-ups after 8 a.m. in a row. Okay yeah so you're having a good sleep life at the moment. Which was unprecedented, unprecedented. And we were like this is, this is, all we'll do, nip the dummy out now, probably 48 hours of a bit of issues and then we'll go back to the 8 a.m. So I'll take you through my week. Go on. Also, I'm so excited that you've not actually told me what's happened yet and you've used a word gawling twice. Yeah. So we'd obviously big up that the dummy fairy was coming which we've been doing for a couple of months. That's been there. What do you want from the dummy fairy? She wanted a Elsa and
Starting point is 00:10:05 a Moana dolls. Fine. I order them. She then also requests a tiger from the tiger who came to tea. Do you know what? Fuck it. I don't really get. I'm willing to throw money in the situation. Won't for the treble. One day before the dummy. Box arrives for me. My wife opens it in front of our daughter. the. the. the. the. the d. the d. the d. the d. the d. the d. the d. the d. the d. the d. the d. the d. the d. the the the the the th. together. together. toge. toge. toguol. toguiol-oomoomoomoome. toguoom. toguoom. toguoom. toge. toge. toge. toge. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. toye. toye. toge. toge. toge. toguu. togu. togu. toguu. toguu. togu. toguu. toguu. togu. in front of our daughter who sees the tiger there. Oh my God, oh my, no. Off to an absolute flyer. So it's Rose's fault. Yeah, well, Rose plays the idea that the dummy friary send that ahead to say that she's coming. Oh, it's getting too complicated. It's like a game of thrones. It's like so many, there's so many plot twists.
Starting point is 00:10:49 So that there's a good, dummy ferry coming at some point, but they've already sent something ahead. She's sent the tiger ahead. But it's not in exchange of any dummy fairies. starter just to wet the whistle yeah. Also, but people that aren't aware what the dummy fairy is, dummy ferries, when you tell your child that, oh, you need to, the dummy ferries coming, so she's going to take all of your dummies and leave your present, like the two ferry. So what you do is you put all your dummies in a box and leave it's left out. The bottom of the stairs, dummy's left out. Sorry, I don't know why it's all right, it's fine.
Starting point is 00:11:30 Struggles, struggles to get to sleep, fair enough. Classic, yeah, that's fair. We're like, oh, we've also made the decision, you know, whatever we can do in this situation for a few days to get her to get to sleep fine so we'll break some of our cardinal rules so Rose sits in on the chair in her room which we know messes up her sleep but fine yeah it's a trade-off for a couple of yeah yeah it's a trade-off we know we can get rid of that we know we can get to try to to the toe too that too that to be ill and the the the the the the the the the the so so so so so so so so the the the the the the so the the so the the so the the so the the so that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that to to that to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to to to the to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the too a too a too a too a too a too a too to too and to to the door. Yeah, okay. Uh, 2.30 she wakes up. She gets back to sleep at 4. Oh, oh, an half, which is crying for the dummy for an hour and a half. Uh, no, just placidly awake really, which is actually more galling.
Starting point is 00:12:14 Oh, oh, no, golly. Well, get ready for galling. Rob, she gets to sleep at four. The stress of the situation means I failed to get to to to to to to to to to to to get back to sleep so I'm up since half two. Heck no, and have you been doing shifts with Rose or is it just you from after two and Rose is sleeping? No, no, Rose is in there to get her back to sleep and that I've just lie, lay in the bed wide, wide away. So you've not actually been... I've not achieved anything except so. So Rose has done it all, but you've just been in bed, awake? to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. thi. the the the the thoes, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. Rooes, thoes, the. the. thea. theaugh, too. too. too. tooe. tooe. thooooooooooes, I went in for the most part, and then once I was like sent back to bed, because there's no point both of us being tired, I then just lie there in a kind of tense adrenaline. Till at 6 a.m. I just think I must just get up and do some work because there's no point in me. No, 5 a.m. I think or half 5.m. Or 5. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I'm just. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I. I. I. I. I. I. I's. I's.

Obviously, I'm absolutely
Starting point is 00:13:05 broken. Corporate that night, so that's ideal to do on two and a half hours sleep. So a corporate would be you doing a Zoom comedy set to a company for their Christmas part. Yeah, but I was doing it from a kind of TV studio near Heathrow. Oh, lovely. Yeah, it was actually quite pleasant because it got me out of the house for the second night of the dump. So I'd say at this point, spirits were quite low. Yeah, I'd say, I haven't seen roses spirits that low since, you know that bit,
Starting point is 00:13:34 about four weeks after giving birth, when all of the hormones drain depressed for a week. Yeah, because they have that sort of, the body releases that sort of like, it's all going to be okay hormone and then that rapidly disappears a few weeks in, does it? Yeah. Well, it was a nice nostalgia trip in that sense. Okay. So that was Rose's bad day and I pushed through. Later in the week, the her to go to sleep. She woke up a half-five. Couldn't believe my absolute luck. I thought we've broken the back of this. Yeah, she just got, I woke up a bit early,
Starting point is 00:14:10 but it was slowly, yeah, she slept for the night. Day three? And she's had a present from the dummy fairy after after the first night. Yeah, but she's negotiated. say just keep throwing shit at them to get it through this. Alright, okay. I would say though that seems like it wasn't the greatest advice if we're a week in and she's still... I'll be honest with you. Ever since Rose read on Mum's Net that this could last four months. Yeah. So she had the teddy? So she's had the ted dumbest. Elsa by the way who's got a arm that you move and she sings a song from Frozen 2.
Starting point is 00:14:49 Yeah. Last night she took Elsa to bed, fell asleep on her and she sung that song for an hour because the arm was in the correct position. Anyway, that's neither him or there. A couple of good nights, not too bad, 5.30.m. And a. th. th. th. to. th. to. th. th.m.m.m.m.m.m.m.m.m.m.m.m.m.m.m.m.m.m.m. So.m. So. So.m. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. to. to. Yeah. So. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah......................................... to. to. to. to. the. the. to. to. to. the. the. to. to. to. to. to. the. the. the. the. the. the bad, 5.30 and then a 2 a.m. middle of the night wake up but goes back to sleep to 6.30 a.m. I think we're on to it here. Yeah. Thursday night. I'm trying to piece it all together like somebody's just come back from Narm. Thursday night. Well you, you texted me. You texted me. No no no that was that was that was that was Sunday. I'm th. I th. I was, th. I was, th. I was, I was, I was, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm on, I'm on, I'm on. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. trying to piece it all together like somebody who's just come back from Narm. Thursday night. Well, you, you text, what did you text me? You text me? No, no, no, that was, that was Sunday morning. Sunday morning was the lowest. I'm only at Thursday. Okay, rock.
Starting point is 00:15:35 thrown. Okay, rock. First of the night. I'm backstroke fine, but enough about my swimming. No, I'm 2 a.m. gave her a backstroke. No, nose stroke, just backstroke. No, nose stroke, just back stroke. You stroke her back at 2 a. So she went, you were. She won't, because you need to sleep.
Starting point is 00:15:51 Fair enough. Yeah, four a ta. too'a'am wake up. Josh, I think you need a dummy. I genuinely I've been sleeping work. I don't know. You can be the dummy fairy, just suck on them to get back to sleep. Try it because you're obviously struggling to get to sleep. Honestly, I genuinely, I'm just so tense going to sleep. It's like, it's because you're so nervous. It's like, you know, you're waiting for some kind of test results but trying to get to sleep. Yeah, do you know what I find you can't enjoy your evening because you're going,
Starting point is 00:16:26 oh that's good she's asleep now and then you think, oh she watched a bit more tele, she watched that? Oh it's only midnight, we can go to sleep at midnight and then in back her back to the day. Yeah, exactly. You don't know what awaits. Yeah okay. So Thursday night right off. Then Friday night, last leg, so I only get back at half 12, I think this is a disaster. Yeah. She somehow sleeps through till 6.30. Oh, that's good. And we think we've absolutely got this sorted. Oh, I forgot to tell you. Thursday. That was the worst thing that happened on Thursday. She woke up at 4 a.m.m. And she at. And she th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to. th. th. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. th. to. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. the. to. the. the. the. the. the. the. to. to tell you, Thursday, that was the worst thing that happened on Thursday. She woke up at 4 a.m. and she wasn't like crying. And because we'd been like encouraging her with, you know, well, you're doing so well, you're a big girl, all this kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:17:13 And she's obsessed with being a big girl because she has, you know, with getting rid of the nappthing to do to encourage and then at 4 a.m We were like So asking me like so why have you woken up are you and she was like I can't tell you But we realized we've been putting such pressure on her to that she was doing so well that she was afraid of that she was afraid of articulating like that she didn't like the dump not having th the th the th th th th th th th th th th at th at th at th at th at the th at th at she th at the thin the thin. thin. thin. thin. thin. the the the thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi. thi. thi. they was they was they was they was the the the the the the the the the the the the the the she was th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to thi thi to thi to thi thi they were they were they were they were 't like the dumb not having her dummy and she was really struggling with it because she won't be a big girl then so she'd be married so that was like absolutely heartbreaking we weren't open to the emotion that she was going through of the lot it's like if someone went
Starting point is 00:17:53 through a loss and you were just telling them you're dealing with this really well I've been a big girl you anything anymore. I'm such a big boy. So we had to have a bit of a change of tack on that one. Yeah. So Friday she slept through till 630. Saturday I was basically walking on air Rob. I felt amazing. And Saturday night she woke up at 4.20, couldn't get back to sleep. So when I texted you at 530 I'd been up an hour and 10 minutes. Oh no. 420 is so early. Well you've basically had the week of like new parent like newborn baby parents. Yeah so last night was great she slept from 7 till 615. Oh that's good. God knows what tonight awaits. But at no point that she had dummy. So it will slowly just calm down.
Starting point is 00:18:46 It will slowly calm down. But you've just had no sleep for a week. No. And even like last night when she slept to 6.15, I was in bed nervous until quarter past 12. I was lying in bed like I had an exam the next day kind of feeling. I think she's all right. I think it might th is might might might might might might might might might might might might might th. th. th. thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. to to just just just just just just to to to to to to to to to toeee bit. Should I try it? We'll just see if it helps because kids seem to love it. What are your thoughts on my week? I mean I think it's um I I'll be honest I thought it would be easier
Starting point is 00:19:14 but now now we're in. Do you know what I know it means? You can't back out now or it all togu. The good thing is you you can't you you can't you can can the dummy, have you at all this week? No, and I'll be honest with you, what's really good about this podcast is however bad it's going, it's really good to think, oh, this is some good content for the podcast. Well, that's what the thing is, you're up all night waiting, thinking about the content rather than getting thapapapapapapapapapaped, th.... th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, tho, thi.

I mean as well it does show you like like what kind of mental state you're in because no one text anyone at 530 a.m. unless there's been like something that awfuls happened. No, you're right. And you'd been up an hour. I think as you probably got in your head. It's probably fine to text now.

I've been away, Kate. I'm on my third coffee. There is a dad, like there's a few dads who are, I know that friends are from various walks of life. And one of them, his daughter is always being a good sleeper. Like she sleeps till gone eight.
Starting point is 00:20:19 And she's always just been a good sleeper. And he's one of those people that simply believes that him and his wife are just are are are are are are are are are are, thi., thi, thi, just, thi, just, just, just, just, thi, just, just, just, just, just, just, thi, thi, just, just, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi's thi's thi's probably thi's probably thi's probably thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi And he's one of those people that simply believes that him and his wife are just really chilled out people and that's why. That's why. And I just couldn't bear to put it on that group. You want a group where people are like, yeah, and it's not your fault.
Starting point is 00:20:38 But I got, he wouldn't say it, but you know he was thinking it.

There's no there's no judgment from me Josh. I just think you know kids like some people just get good sleepers what can you do? And also if anything if your kid gets up gone a every day they'll probably be a loser in life. Get up and go. I didn't say it but I'm crossing my fingers. All some saying is now you know my oldest is in school. the the oldest. the oldest. the oldest. this. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

But she got me one, and I was supposed to be having it at Christmas, like I would have only one for Christmas, but I've just started playing it because of lockdown. I just thought, do you what, screw you 2020. It's not gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna gonna, it's, I, I, I, I, I, to be, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, th, th, th, th, th, to, to, to screw, to, thi, thi, thi, th. to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th, th....... th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the, the, the.a, tooooo, too, too, too, too, too, the, the, the, thi, it's not going to be a normal Christmas. I'm playing my PlayStation now and I've been playing Spider-Man on my PlayStation and Josh, I think I can say this to you now and our listeners, that I've got emotional playing Spider-Man. Because the game or because you just
Starting point is 00:22:55 couldn't believe you were playing Spider-Man. One, I was like, oh my God, I've got the new console on launch day, which is just, you know, I never I the the new, I the new, I th. th. th. th. th.

And I was just swinging along doing my little web slings just like I'm in New York. I felt like I was in New York Josh. Where did you go? I went to Times Square. I went up the the Empire State Building. I tried to find to find the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the hotel the ho to to go wanting to go wanting to go wanting to go wanting the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. thoan. the thoan. the thoan. the thonenenenene.

And I tried to get out of the Statue of Liberty but I've not unlocked that bit of a map yet. At one point I just landed on a taxi and just went round for a bit. And it was great. I just felt so alive. And what part of your day is this happening in Rob? When did, well, to be fair, I got the, I got this PlayStation.
Starting point is 00:23:53 We managed to get it on that launch day and then I could pick it up Friday afternoon. And the first time I've got to play it was about 10 minutes before this podcast on that we are recording Monday at 4 p.m. Oh wow. Because of children ruining my life and work. But I say what a 20 minutes I have in New York. Just felt so alive. Just enjoying a taxi ride around the big apple. I'm very pleased for you.
Starting point is 00:24:17 Yeah, so we've had very different weeks. Does that mean you don't, is that like when you get a joint birthday and Christmas present and then you actually regret it when it comes to Christmas? No, I won't because I just have to like play with my kids, don't I? Yeah. Do I mean, I can't go, oh Christmas and then I just go and sit on a PlayStation all day, which is what I want to do. Of course. But I can't, can I? No. bin. What? No more potty? No more potty. Nappies are gone. Yeah, potty's are gone because we've
Starting point is 00:24:45 got the stool and the little seat that you put in the big seat so they don't fall in. Yeah. Yeah, that's actually, do you know what? Well, why am I saying that? I was like, are you doing what? We could probably just, because she's into that. So I don't know why we need meant another getting rid of. Yeah at the moment I'd stick with the potty and just work at the dummies. I've got an issue though you can help me with Josh. Yeah. So once they forget they remember everything kids don't they? Once I was up in the attic like the loft, putting stuff away and the five-year-old went, well four-year-old nearly five, said, Daddy can I go in the loft. the the the the the the the, I was, I was, I, yeah you can but not yet you're too little which went when I went I went I went I went oh when you're five because it was a throwaway comment yeah and I just assumed five you know five when they're two five seems so long away did it right but I was in the lofty but I'm no you can't not to your older she went yeah not to your older she to no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no I was I was I was I was I was like I was like I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm th I'm I'm th I'm th I'm to I'm to I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I was like I was like I was I I was I I I was I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm th I'm th I'm th th th th th th th th thin I'm th th th th th th th thin I'm th th th th thin I'm th I'm th I'm th I'm thin I That is amazing. I think when she, for her birthday, I might just take her in the loft for a bit. It's loads of insulation, it's really hot, enjoy.
Starting point is 00:25:53 I've had a trouser development. Oh, go on. Yeah. So it's not, I haven't bought a pair of tracksuit trousers, but I have made a decision Rob, which I think is a good parenting tip. Yep, go on. I've basically selected one pair of jeans as my parenting jeans. Okay, go on. Because what I was finding was every time we'd go out, I'd get muddy.
Starting point is 00:26:16 So now I've just got a pair of jeans that I'm not going to wash all winter because otherwise you're just washing the new pair of jeans every time. So basically whenever we go to the park, I'm just putting on the same pair of jeans and the same pair of old converse that are, I'm not going to lie, exactly how your parents imagine I would wear them on TV, but they're much worse. And I just wear them every time we go out now, Rob. And it's so liberating. I'd call them, that's your park outfit, they're not your parenting outfit. Yeah. But I don't mean that, you put on the nice outfit and the kids will just ruin it immediately, so you might as well dress messy. Exactly. Exactly. But I'll be honest with you. to get a trac suit, Josh. Get a little park, trac suit and you're not wearing a trac suit. I'm not. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't. I don't, I don't, I don't, but I don't, but I their their their, but their, but their, I their, I their, I their, I their, I their, I their, I their, I the house? I bumped into Ellie Taylor at the park yesterday.
Starting point is 00:27:05 What if she saw me in a tracksuit? She said, interestingly, that the last time she was at that park, she'd seen two people discussing whether it was the slide mentioned on our podcast. Wow, have we made a slide famous? We've made the slide famous. They're considering putting up a plaque. You've got to get a trac suit. I don't know, what's wrong with people seeing you in a tracksuit? Well, look, I just... I might do the school run in a trac suit.
Starting point is 00:27:30 Yeah, I know, Rob. Would you ever do the school run in a tracuit? No. I just, I've got a bit more self-respect. I put on my to look like, I'm, I don't know, like, odd, traveling on a plane. I don't know, like, odd, traveling on a plane. Do you're not wearing atight. I want you're laying in bed fully awake jeans on. That could be an issue. Stiff, stiff trousers.
Starting point is 00:28:09 Get a bit of soft trouser in your life, mate. That's a game changer. Do you want some emails? Yes, please, Josh. Now I haven't, for obvious reasons, I haven't had much chance to look at them, even though I haven't slept. There's a lotthaa tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha thoen. thoen. thoen. thia thia thia thiolomea to to to thiolomea. thiolomea. thiolomea. thiolomea. thi. to be to be thioli. thi. to bea, thi. to bea, to bea, stiff, stiff, stiff, stiff, stiff, stiff, stiff, stiff, stiff, stiff, stiff, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be too. tooomfe. tooomfe. tooomen. tooomea, tooomenen, tooomen, tooomen, tooomen, tooomen, tooomen, tooomorrow, tooomorrow. tooomorrow. tooe. to look at them, even though I haven't slept. There's a lot of stuff on bad school trips. Oh, okay, go on. Should we just try this one? If you think a school trip to B&Q, this is from Beck.
Starting point is 00:28:32 If you think, not the musician, if you think a true, I presume. I thrown the best international If you think a school trip to B&Q was low budget, when I was at school, we went on a trip to the local Morrison's car wash. Oh my God. Imagine a class of children walking up to Morrison's standing in a group next to the car wash in silence, waiting until a car went through, and then walking back to the school the school the school the school the school the school the school the school the school the school the school the school the school the school the school the school the school to the school. That is, that is a low moment.
Starting point is 00:29:05 I can't imagine what the guy going through the car wash must have been thinking, having around 30 kids in school uniforms staring at him. To this day, I've got no clue why any of this was for. I mean, what are you learning about there? At least with B and Q, there was an element of learning about retail. But car wash, there's no learning there, there, there, there, thah, thah, there, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thirty, thi, thi, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, thirty, there's no learning at all. There's someone here, Philip, this is kicking off Rob, Philipper, she's got taken to Tesco's on a school trip. To do the teachers weekly shop. Well, I've got this one here from Emma, said, hi, Rob and Josh, loving the podcast,
Starting point is 00:29:37 and it's definitely helped me feel better about my own lockdown and general parenting. On the subject of children who pronounce words, to know, kids sometimes get the first letters of two words the wrong way around. For example, they might say parkark instead of car park. Well, my friend's little boy, instead of saying popcorn, used to say cockporn. Made going to the cinema. A very funny experience as he used to continually shout it out in excitement. Cockporn! Mommy, I want cockporn. It's very expensive at the cinema cock porn, isn't it? I prefer to bring it in from the supermarket in my bag.
Starting point is 00:30:13 I'd think, I'd argue that most porn has cocking. Do you mean, it's quite, like that's one of the most dominant parts of porn, isn't it? It is? It's certainly, it's a classic of the sort sort sort, you know, and even if there's not a cock in it, there's normally a fake one, aren't there? Yes. What'd you say? Yes. I was just, have I said too much about pornography? I'd say that on Radio 4? I'd say that on Radio 4. And after we've done 25 minutes on dummies, I really do think we've really, we've scratched that parenting bug. for and after we've done 25 minutes on dummies I really do think we've really we've scratched that parenting bug. Oh yeah we've done the parent itself you just do stuff about we have a quick chat about observations from pornography. There you go. It seems fair doesn't it? It does
Starting point is 00:30:53 seem fair. Right I've got a question here from Michael Winehouse. A bit of correspondence. Oscar five really stumped me this week and I didn't have an answer for him. Only October, but her, oh my god, I'm so tired, sorry, lads. Hi Jed, Oscar 5 really stopped this week and I didn't have an answer for him. I know it's only November, but he's already starting this time when we don't have an answer and said, it's late, ask me tomorrow. Thankfully he didn't, but then a couple of days later he remembered and asked me again out the blue.
Starting point is 00:31:32 During those few days, my wife and I discussed how we'd answer. But all of that went out the window and I came out with it's magic and he was just chosen once upon a time and then when he gets old his son becomes Santa and so on and so on and he did exactly what my wife said he would have replied so that means that lots of Santa's have died. Oh my God. He then became upset. Oh my word. What a disaster. Now my son thinks Santa dies regularly and wanted to know when the Santa will die because he's really old. I messed up. Michael Winehouse. Can't you just say they're retire and they're I mean it's too late now. Do you remember finding out?

It's a great, I mean, you know, I don't think we can endorse this, but if you're a bit strapped for cash, pop it in a cow poli syringe and oak for the best. Anyway, I've got a lot of questions about that. I've got a lot.

This is not, that's just, the carolpoul syringe is just a side, as you say, a side note. I saw it, wasn't it? She put, it's been in bra, that's the most, that's the most sort of engaging bit of information I've ever seen in brackets. Do you know, that've worked out how people can do that, but you can also go down the IVF way, I imagine. Anyway, that's not even the story. My mom friend plays a common game with her two-year-old where she says she's going to eat him, i.e. mommy's going to eat your toes, mom, moes, their two-year-old replies, when one day her two-year-old-year-year-year-year-year-year-year-year-year-year-old-old-old-old-old-old-old-old-old-old-old-old-old-old-old-old-old-old-old-old-o'-inin-in-o'-o'-in-in-in-in-in, th-ii's th-in, th-in-in, th-in, th-in, th-in, th-in, th-in, th-in th-in friend swiftly stops the game, terrified that a son is going to start repeating the towel

I don't think, I don't think eating. the today's to be tho' their their their two-year-old's clock. It's gone mad, isn't it? PC's gone mad these days, can't do anything. Anyway, so my friend, swiftly stopped the game. However, upon explaining that mummy won't be eating Sam's Willie any time, her son's willy to'n in their son's Willie ever, but now is terrified that Daddy's boyfriend eats my willy is going to get mentioned at nursery
Starting point is 00:36:08 sometime and they'll be called in for a serious talk. Oh, that's it. Anyway, keep up the good work.
