Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello, I'm Rob Beckett. And I'm Josh Winnockham. Welcome to Parenting Hell, the show in which Josh and I discuss what it's really like to be a parent, which I would say can be a little tricky. So, to make ourselves and hopefully you feel better about the trials and tribulations of modern-day parenting, each week we're chatting to a famous parent about how they're coping. Or hopefully how they're they're tha th hearing from you the listener with your tips, advice, and of course, tales of parenting woe. Because let's be honest, there are plenty of times when none of us know what we're doing.

Back to school signals a fresh start for students. New classmates, new teachers, new lessons. Change is in the air. But one thing hasn't changed.
Starting point is 00:01:34 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.

Oh, that has to be said. Michael seems to like it. Yeah, the Gobler. More tired than Josh story. Rob and Josh, loving the podcast, have been listening since the beginning. And since then have had a baby and another on the way.
Starting point is 00:05:39 It's been going on a long time, isn't it? What this show? Or people having children. No just, well that's even longer. My kids keep asking who was the first child. Do they? And now we've gone on to chicken and egg. Oh yeah yeah, and then my dog, because he was young she was like, but then what go first? to the egg? I was like, crazy, isn't that? Yeah, but there must be a chicken though to have the egg. I went, yeah, but then that chicken came out of an egg. And she went, yeah, so the egg was first. But then the chicken gave birth to eggs,
Starting point is 00:06:10 so it was your chicken for. And then she went, oh, it just goes on and on, it's a nightmare. It's a nightmare. It is. Anyway, sorry, God, what's that? More tired than Josh. My son is at nursery and usually my husband drops him off in the morning and I pick him up. For a reason I can't remember, one day I had to do drop-off after a hellish night of broken sleep. My son has never been a great sleep and during this time he was a prolific 3 a.m. Shitter for several months. When others I was walking along with him along with him. him in the pram I would point out various objects and things and do noises to help him learn what they were. For example pointing out a car and saying brum brum. After drop off I was walking back home with a pram and through sheer exhaustion I forgot that my son was now at nursery and that the pram was empty
Starting point is 00:06:55 however I continue to point out thing I was on a cool hands-free maybe. Unfortunately on my way back I passed several dogs and their owners thinking that my son who wasn't there would be excited. I would over-animatedly go, look a doggy. Oh no! Oh here's a doggy! Oh here's a lady ringing the police! Oh, here's the police! Oh, here's an ambulance! Oh, here's a hospital! It was only after the third confused stare from a dog owner and them keeping a wide distance from me that I remembered that my son wasn't in the pram.
Starting point is 00:07:34 And I was just a tired weirdo talking to our imaginary child. Thanks for the street I don't really give a shit but that you are just going this because if you go oh sorry I thought he was still in there because I forgot I can't expect yeah that's oh my god that's just the more you speak the worst yeah yeah yeah that's just the most tired profession yeah what I th 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 th th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I the I th I th the th th the th I th th th the th th the the th the the the th I th I'm I'm 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 the th th th I th th I th I the the the the the thi thi thi try try try the thi thi thi thi the thi thi the the the the the th of that I think is a great feature yeah you're not tired anyone no more tired than Rob but I don't think I'm I I who's the most tired profession postman no look milkman not postman more movement yeah what what's one comes up about three p.m I know so what would what should we if anyone's got a suggestion of what we got more more time than who's the most tired person or thing yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah to to to to to to the the the to the the the to the the the the to the the the the th I the the the the the the th is the the the the the the th is the the the the tho's th is th is the the the the the the the the the the the the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the most the the the the the the th th th th th th th th th th th th th is the the is the is the is thi thi thi thi thi thi thi. thi. tie. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the the most tired thing in the world?

Listening to the pod has made me wonder, what did you guys do for school work experience? Good question., great question. School work experience, that's a good topic. My husband didn't get a placement sorted in time. So he ended up going to Southwest Water, which was arranged by the school. Oh my lack of the woods. He had to watch conveyor belts of shit go past.

Having a big interest in zoology, she was delighted to secure a place at Sparkwell Zoo, but then she was less delighted when she was given the task of chopping up a dead horse with an axe. Oh my god, you've not! Fucking hell! No! How big's the horse?
Starting point is 00:09:20 In the first couple of days, it died naturally and had been donated to the zoo for the tigers to eat. Oh, so she just had to butcher a horse. Fucking howl. Sorry to swear. A brutal task for 16-year-old, but she cracked on and got the job done, bless her. Oh God. I look forward to getting the answers sometime next year when I've finally caught up on the podcast. I hope you're having a nice day, thanks, th, th, th, experience than that. Mine was Kushdie. Mine was a, at the nursery I used to go to when I was a like four year old, yeah.

I was back home with a BLT baguette from the sandwich shop by, ooh, once I've ordered it, once I made it, I reckon 1238. I booked two weeks at Virgin Megastore in Exeter. That's good. That's not a proper job. The first week fell through, right. Because they double booked me. So I did my uncle's fruit and veg shop in Cornwall. No, Cornwall? How fast?

Well, I'd love to know what Shaw Mawstip for work experience, but we didn't ask him. No. What we did ask him about though was parenting. Exactly. Enjoy. We had him beforehand. Go back and to that one if you have them. Yes.

Starting point is 00:12:08 Yeah, I want to keep it on. I thought I'd turn it off. I mean it couldn't. It's like you've, if someone said, can you just set up Sean's thing, I'd go, it's a bit much the way you've got the baby grow hanging on the clothesline literally in shot to the rightest their back. He's got a sleeping mask with fuck off written on it and a green dressing gown. It looks so fluffy.
Starting point is 00:12:34 It looks like you've got, it looks like you're about to film a sitcom taster. The props team have gone mad. I think it's actually a bit too Shawmawshall at a moment. It's a bit obvious. I know, sorry, look, I apologize. I've not made the effort, but I really am happy to be here. Sorry, I'm very grateful. Thank you. Sean, welcome back to the show. We spoke to you before, before you had a child.
Starting point is 00:13:04 Yes. You now have the show. We spoke to you before, before you had a child. Yes. You now have the child. Yes. Before we go through some of the things we spoke about last time, how is it now, how old is your baby? Baby is 12 weeks. No, oh fuck, sorry, so this is what's happened. I'm just gonna be honest. Grace has top. Grace has left me. I've not seen Grace on the baby for 12 weeks. So that's where I got missed up. So Grace is here. Hello Grace.
Starting point is 00:13:38 I'm about to be very seen because I'm about to be very seen because I, yeah, I mean I, Grace has really taken you know the lead on all of this stuff so she's here to help with any answers that I get wrong so not only are you not doing any child care she's now doing your zooms so 13 weeks 13 that's fine. That's fine.
Starting point is 00:14:06 That's fine. The last time I asked it was 12 weeks. So we should say for people that don't know you, it's not that you're not doing it, it's that you're so scatty that you're just being ordered into what to do. Is that correct? Well it's a combination of incapable and busy. Right. Yes. I was trying to give you an out there, sure.
Starting point is 00:14:25 But you know. But I, yes, so I mean I'm here, I'm here. I'm here. Yeah. That's what we got. Can I just ask why it is 10.20? You're still in your dressing gown and I'm asked. And Grace seems fully dressed holding the baby.
Starting point is 00:14:45 Yes yes yeah she's dressed for the day. So can you talk me through what's happened since you went to bed last night at whatever time? Well actually funnily enough Grace got some video footage of me without my knowing this this morning where I put on CBBs for Wilder, her name's Wilder, and I didn't realize that Grace had then removed Wilder from the bed and put her elsewhere in the cot or to occur somewhere. And then it just turned out I've been watching C.B.B. B's on my own.
Starting point is 00:15:18 Ha ha ha! What were you watching? The Baby Club? No, I don't know the Baby Club. It was Mr. Tumble. Do you know what, this is the thing? It feels like we're in a time in the world where, sorry, that's... Grace, keep it down, will you? Oh, good stuff. Come on. Come on.
Starting point is 00:15:43 We're rocking out with this gold. Is that in 20 past ten? Come up, come on. We're rocking. I'm coming out with this gold. Is that in 20 past 10? Come up, people! So what time did Wilder wake up this morning? Right, what time did Wilder wake up this morning? Half, half eight. Blumen, this is, oh, blood, yeah. This is how useless I've been.
Starting point is 00:16:00 Someone asked me, oh God, yeah, getting kept up all night, are you? No, you know, no sleep. I bet you're knackered. And I went, no, no, actually it's all right. Well, I'll do, well, just sleep through the night. We're really lucky. And everyone's been really confused. Until Grace overheard me say this to someone. And I was like, yeah, she didn't wake up.

You can wake up and give moral support, however, it's better that you get your sleep, and then you can take over in the day. That's what we try to. I think the main thing that, I think the bare minimum is you should know. Yes, I do agree on that your partner will say no? And then you're livid when they're like, you couldn't go downstairs and get me a muslin and you're like, for fucks.
Starting point is 00:17:12 I know, well, my wife, do you know, I remember that? I remember that. When I last butcher, you told me about the muslin. And you said how the muslin is, you know, 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, to to to to to to to to thi, thi, the, the, the, the, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, the, the, the, the, you're, the, the, the, th.

It's not been so much the muslin, but you guys might not have this, but there was a kind of, during the birth, there was a kind of, there was a bit of, there was a difficult birth. And so there was a bit of trouble with... You didn't realize though. She slept through. I was at the cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema cinema. I was. I was. I was at the cinema. We didn't have a birthday. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:47 Your mom hates it when you leave six half-full glasses on your nightstand. It's a good thing mom lives on the other side of the country.

Savings may vary, eligibility and member terms apply. Well, one of the things we asked you about was the birth, and you said you were worried. Sean was absolutely terrified that he was going to be useless at the birth. Right. Well, okay. Was he useless?
Starting point is 00:18:53 I don't think I don't think I was useless. I fainted. I wouldn't say a man that's just fainted is helpful. I wouldn't say useless, but I wouldn't say you were really invited. I don't think it helped. So what was so... Why did you frame? What point? So this is, well this, it actually wasn't the actual birth itself.
Starting point is 00:19:23 It was just before that, when Grace was, you're kind of getting into bed, weren't you? When I fainted? When I fainted. No, it was when I was, it was when I was bent over, and then put it in their funeral. It was a PG version of it, Sean, what happened? Yeah, no, she was getting, oh what's that injection called?
Starting point is 00:19:48 Epidural. Epidural. How do I know more about this in you and it was three months ago? I know, I know. The epiural. Oh, so the needle in the base of the spine is quite, and that, yeah. No, but here's not a laugh. No, no, no, no, no, no, the the the the thing, the thing, the thing, the thing, the thing. No, the thing. No, the thing. No, the thing. No, th. No, th. No, th. No, th. No, th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thia. thiae. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. that, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

What, what's. th. that. that. that. that. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that, but this is this is the thing. I wasn't picking you up on that. I wasn't going to laugh. So yeah. I was more so. Okay, sorry, Josh. I think we're all taking this not seriously enough if we true. It is academic. Yeah. No, no, no. But what was strangers. I felt. to the me passing. th. 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. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I was.

I wasn't. I wasn't. I was, okay, so I'll build up to me passing out. But basically, there was a bit of trouble
Starting point is 00:20:28 because me and Grace had been into the hospital a couple of times because Grace thought that she, you know, that she was going into the labor, but they disagreed. And we were sent home. Right. And then actually we went there the third time. You was so surprised so surprised so surprised so surprised so surprised so surprised so surprised they so surprised they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they th so surprised th so surprised th so surprised th so surprised th so surprised thoaned. thoaned. thoaned. thoaned. to thia. that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. to tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. to toa. to to toa. to to to to to to to to the third time. You were so surprised they agreed that you fainted. And they were saying no you're fine and Grace had to kind of explain to them that she has a high pain threshold. Yeah. Because the way that she was reacting to, you know,
Starting point is 00:21:01 it wasn't the kind of, you know, in the films, the scream, all of that. Lou has to do that. Lou's got got 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's got the th. Lue's got th. Lue's got th. L. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the's thi. they they they they they they they agreed they agreed they agreed they agreed they agreed they they agreed they they they agreed they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they's they's they's th. th. th. th. th. their. their. their. their. their. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. thou. the. th. the. the. the. tho. the. thea. the. thee. the. the. the. to, you know, it wasn't the kind of, you get, you know, in the films, the scream, all that. Lou has to do that, but Lou's got colitis, which is sort of chronic stomach pain, so she's had to deal with lots of pain, so when she was going into labour, that was the same, and I'm going into labour and they went, no oh, oh, right. So come in and we had to, we had to, um, what's it when the baby's the wrong way around? Breach? I've forgotten all. Oh, the tea. Oh, the tea. the tea. 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. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. te. t. t. te. t. t. tr. t. tr. t. t. t. t. t. t. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. in. And we had to, we had to, and what's it when the baby's the wrong way round? Breach. I've forgotten all of the terms. I've not thought about this. It's right.
Starting point is 00:21:52 Sorry, so breach birth that went unnoticed. For out of all of the scans, it went unnoticed. So suddenly we were in this really incredibly intense situation where we had to decide. In the moment, by the way, the doctor said, look, I'm going to step outside. You have to make a choice when I, you know, you have to have an answer when I get back in. And we had to decide whether it was going to be a, like, a breach, the birth, the birth. Can I just say with the baby being walked around by Grace in the background? This is like, we already said it was two on the nose this way the steps shot was set up. It's insane. Now she's putting the baby down for a nap and Grace looks beautiful by the way like she's going to a wedding or a
Starting point is 00:22:37 but a party. Oh thank you. And Sean you look a mess. Yeah you don't look like you live together you. You look like like like like th th th th th th th th th th th th the th the th the the th th the the the th th the the th th th th the the th the th th th at their their tho tho 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 so so so so.

We need to recast this.
Starting point is 00:22:57 This is. These are the notes that I genuinely get. This is what I've got one. What is Grace doing now? Grace is taking Wilder out. Right. Right. And I'm looking after the I'm looking after milder dog. So me and me I've I've become I would say Sean just say I'm not taking her out. Don't try and like go. Yeah. So we split the duties.

Yeah. No it has but we have it has that I've kind of becomes Mildred's mother have more have I? Okay maybe I haven't. Right this is right can you just go on your walk? Can you just go on your walk?
Starting point is 00:23:46 Sure, I worry when Grace goes on a walk because you're not going to have any of the facts at your fingertips. I know. I know. So we decide we had the most amazing. Goodbye. Goodbye. Sorry. Right. We had the most amazing. Now Mildredred's out. Sorry. You're not. That's your job. That's your job. Oh. that. I. I. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. That. That's. That. That's.

Starting point is 00:24:15 So, are you going to be alright to do this podcast now that you looking after the dog? Does the dog like you? It looks sad that Grace has gone. She always sad that Grace has gone, but she comes round. Marlotte's? They're coming. Yeah. Every shot is like, you can't illustrate anything in this podcast without... How small is your flat? Because everything appears to be in shot all the time. Nothing you talk about that isn't in shot. That's what I've angled it also, I just looked like the every man. That's what it is.
Starting point is 00:24:58 It's what the CEOs had to do when they're on Zoom meetings in the pandemic, like find the corner of their mansion. So, right, here we go. So, sorry. So, Grace is back, Sean. Grace is back now. How's that in shot? How is that in shot? She's grabbed a card, but a bit nippyier out there than we filmed.
Starting point is 00:25:21 A bit colder. Maybe the dressing gown was the right option for today. Thank you very much see? There we go. Look at that. It's not as stupid as a look. No, you couldn't be. That's impossible. That is actually impossible. Oh God, right. So you sleep when I'm a mascot? Why do you have? I do, yeah. And then do you, why don't you take it off your head? How long have you been up? I've actually left the house with it on my head a couple of times, not realizing... It's awful. It says F off on it. Oh, that's something I've been doing. Have you done this? Cut down the swearing? No, I didn't know with a baby. But well, well, yeah. It's not bad, bad men. Bad men. It's bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad. 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 the the the the the the the th. th. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. the the the you. Yeah like get over my fucking chair yeah man wants to
Starting point is 00:26:05 rest his feet. I've really tried to cut I use it I use it off now and oh that's nice I can't effing can't effing believe it yeah can't you effing breastfeed in peace I'm trying to f-thing sleep really modern very modern man right. Sorry let me get let me get to this because it was a bridached doctor. It's quite a serious point. So, yeah, well, I don't know if you guys experienced a kind of a really amazing moment where it was where it was where.
Starting point is 00:26:38 So what was the options he gave you? That's where we're up to. So C section or breach birth. But the thing is they wouldn't any questions that me and Grace had... the the the the to to to to to to to to to to to to the to to to to to to to to the toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toe. toa. toa. toa. toa. It's toa. It's toa. It's toa. It's toa. It's toauche. It's toe. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the toe. the toe. toe. the the toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. -section or breach birth. But the thing is they wouldn't any questions that me and Grace had, the doctor was hesitant to... Yeah, yeah, they don't. They don't know their words to be taken against them when something different happens. Absolutely. Yeah, precisely, right? And I totally sympathized with that. But it made, you know, it made mine and Grace's decision and situation it was very difficult and it was very scary
Starting point is 00:27:07 and I had to completely remain calm and cool-headed if you can believe it but for grace because really when you're going through when you know when it's the actual birth yes you're there for support and all of that but and and it's it's the biggest day in your life as well, etc. etc. But really, Grace is going through this. Grace is about to have birth. The baby has been inside grace for the past nine months. It's as much as you want it to be both of your day, when it comes to something serious like that, I really think that it's not, I just felt like it wasn't about me. Not at all, yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:48 No, exactly. And the biggest day of your life is when you met Matt Hancock in the jungle. Oh, for the birth of his child is breached. Can't this man just talk without Matt Hancock being brought up? At least you didn't say strictly. You both. At least you're one along now. Oh God. The next time I have the next kid I'll be dancing on ice.
Starting point is 00:28:14 Yeah. He's going for them all. In regards to Hancock, one of the most bizarre things about doing the jungle is coming out of the jungle and having people come up to you. You that. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi's thi's thi. that, thi's thi's thi's thi's tho' tho' tho' tho' their their their their their their their their their their their their their. And, their. And, their. And, their. And, their. And, their. And, their. their their their their their thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. theean. thean't thean't toean't toean't thean't thou. thean't thean't thi. thea' thi. thea' ths about doing the jungle is coming out of the jungle and having people come up to you you think that well I've been on quite a big program people have come up to me and you know they'll say I really enjoyed the show really enjoys you on the show all that you actually gets people coming up to you go to go to their life literally yeah and then you get other people the concert you're gonna to they I'm the the the the the the the the the the the they I I I I I the they I they I they I they I they I they I they they they they they they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're all all all all I'm 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're 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'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, all right? The thing is about, like, mate, yeah, you know, I don't like the way you handle the pandemic, you know what I mean? I don't like the way, what do you do?
Starting point is 00:28:47 He's set off all the things to his mates, all the PPU, all that stuff. Do you know what I mean? tell you know what I mean? to tell you, but the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the tell, but, but,the trials, you know what I mean? Because I ate snakes. But right, back to birth. Back to birth. Yeah, back to birth. So this, so we're, you know, I can see Grace is terrified and try to remain strong. And then the most amazing midwife came in that was specialized with breach births. And she was just, it was like it gave you, it was like it gave, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it was like, it was like, it was like, it was like, it was like, it was like, it was like, it was like, it the the 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 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 to the to the the the the the the the the the the, he tria, he did, he did, he did, he did, he did, he did, he did, he did, he did, he did, the the the the the the the to the the to came in that was specialized with breach births.
Starting point is 00:29:26 And she was just, it was like it gave you faith in humankind. She was just absolute like what we would have done without her. And she came in and she calmed us down. And she was, you felt like she was in charge, and you felt like on a human level you could trust this human being. And for all of that that to happen in a few few thiiiiiiiiiiiiii. And she. And she. And she. And she. And she. And she. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. It was just was just was just was just was just was just was just was just was just was just was just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just. th. 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 the th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. the. the the. th you could trust this human being and all of that to happen in a few seconds. Yeah. It was just amazing and I made me really emotional and so we went with
Starting point is 00:29:54 Breach Berth and we went with her because we just you kind of but we believed in this this person. It was absolutely amazing that this thing that is to you so gigantic and one of the biggest moments of your life, if not the biggest moment of your life. And this woman is dealing with that just on a day-to-day basis and helping people for us. It's just absolutely amazing. So we go with her, right? No, we trust you. You're amazing. You're gonna do this. This is gonna happen. And we go with her. So the breach birth is gonna happen.
Starting point is 00:30:28 This now means that Grace has to have the epidural. And the strange thing is, she's sat on the end of the bed. A doctor's doing the epidural. The midwife is there and we and we and we and we and we and we and we and we and we thu, and we are. And thu, and thu, and thu, and thu, and thu, and thu, and thu, and thu, and thu, and thu, thu, thu, thu, thus, th. T, is thi, is thi, th. T, is th. T, is th. T, is th.

Now, normally, that comes out of panic, right? Yeah. And what happens is you're so panicked. You're hyperventilating, all of that, you pass out. Yeah. But what was so strange about this is.
Starting point is 00:30:58 I know you're going to find this difficult to believe, but I really was, I felt like my job here was to remain solidly calm I have to be calm grace here and you just fell asleep so so I put my eye mask and then fainted for six hours and no one noticed so what happened was I'm stupec-sohipped so suddenly I thought well that's weird I feel like I'm good this is honestly my inner model pretty much word for word that's weird and's weird. I feel like I'm good. This is honestly my inner model, pretty much word for word. That's weird. I feel like I'm going to faint.
Starting point is 00:31:30 But I'm obviously not going to faint. Fine. So just kind of, you know, concentrate. And it really does feel like I'm going to. And then I said, and then I said, I said, a young man next to me to to to to to be, th. th. th. th. th. thto the, there was a young man next to me, another guy helping out, big team come in. I said, sorry, man, do you what if I, I just, I think I might, I might, and then that was
Starting point is 00:31:52 it. Bang, straight down. What, like a fucking timber? Like in the films. Yeah. Wow. But luckily landed on a kind of beanbag bed type thing that happens to be there, right? Yeah, but open opened my eyes. Sorry, you in a cartoon? Yeah, well this is the thing.
Starting point is 00:32:11 Sadly then you rolled onto 20 mouse traps. I opened my eyes, but I opened my ey, and there was a nurse over my head, I'm lying down with my face like facing the sky. A nurse's head, she comes over my eyes. She comes over my eyes and there was a nurse over my like over my head I'm lying down with my face like facing the sky a nurse is actually comes over so it looks like I've just been born I've got the P. O.V. of a baby with a nurse over there going are you okay are you okay are you okay and I like oh yeah she goes would you like a cup of tea and you know it's quite a straight you know kind of like because I in my head I thought why I would you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you th you th you th you th you th you th you'd th you'd th you'd th you'd th you'd th you'd th you'd th you'd th you'd th you'd th you'd th you'd th I'd th. I'd th you'd th you'd th you'd th I'd like like like like like like like I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd like like like I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th I'd th. th. I'd th. I'd th. I'd thi thi thou the to to to the the to to the like like to thou to the like like like like the like like thou th quite a straight, you know, kind of like, do I, because I, in my head I thought, why, I would, I thought you'd never ask. Fuck in her.
Starting point is 00:32:50 Well, what was a man got to do to get a cup of tea around there? Gaspid. Gospin. A bit dry in here, in it? A plumber upstairs. Bitch, Oh, milk. Oat milk. Did Grace notice? Or she, you know, already busy with what she was doing, giving birth? No, no, the epidural had happened, but she was still sat up on the bed and the woman said, would you like a cup of tea?
Starting point is 00:33:22 And I said, yes, please. And as she walked off she just went men and that got like a big cheer from everyone in the room. Amazing. So how long were you out for? Oh no I don't know not long not long I'm a man I helped myself together. I came out of it when I was needed. I was there. But yeah, I mean, yeah, the breach birth, that was that was terrifying. There was one point where Grace asked me to, right? So does this have, so in the births in the films, right? Yeah. It's all done quite quickly, like, in the film. I've only ever seen it, the Arnold Schwarzenegger one, Junior. I think that's quite different though. It's any birth of saying. So, Grace asks for water or something.
Starting point is 00:34:12 And I go to give her water. And Wilders, this might, this is a bit, I warn you now, like this is a bit graphic. But Grace is there with her legs open and Wilder's leg is out. Oh my word. She looked like a tripod, like a human tripod. Actually quite similar to Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jr. So there you go. We got through that.
Starting point is 00:34:38 So you saw just like a leg out. Grace reminded me of that this morning. She was like, do you remember when you came over? And I nearly fainted again. I mean, I was gonna say that. I'd say you've had a brilliant turnaround in sort of managing like any sort of anxiety or panic you have. Yeah. You're way more mature and sort of composed now, just even in day-to-day stuff than you were a few years ago. How do you think Sean Walsh should have 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, tham, that, that, that, thi, thi, that, to to to tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, I, I tho, I th. I th. I th. I to, I to, I to, I to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to, I, to to to to to, to to to, th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, to to to to to to to to to to to too. too. too. too. too. thran, too. too. too, to to to to ago. How do you think Sean Walsh of 10 years ago would have handled?
Starting point is 00:35:05 Yeah, I remember you having a panic tack backstage at Wolverhampton Civic Hawks, you have to do a gig. Admittedly, we were in the foyer, so you know, it hadn't sold very well. Neither was for in good spirits. I'm still in the foyer you prick. Yeah, no, John, John. That Hancock's got you into the bloody studio, hasn't it? Studio, yeah. No, it's, yeah, so I don't, I don't know. I don't know. I mean, I think that what I would say is that this is a strange thing to say.
Starting point is 00:35:43 I don't quite know how to articulate this but I think I'm excited. But do you guys have this? It's a bit cringy probably talking about it. But watching Grace with Wilder is actually my favorite aspect of it and seeing how amazing Grace is with why that mother connection, that mother daughter connection is, is the most amazing bit because I, a couple of times imagined if I had in some sort of yeah, universe where I've had to do this alone. And I have to say I don't think I would be able to cope. I don't, I don't think I'd be able to handle that. No. I bet you up. I don't think I'd be able to handle that. No I'd bat you up I don't think you'd be able to say. Yeah. But yeah especially being a single parent it's so hard when there's two of you to the people that are doing it. Massive respects I can't imagine how difficult it is to juggle everything. It's made me realize that women are equal. Wow that's really progressive Sean's
Starting point is 00:36:46 God yeah now you put it like that I think I'm close I'm close to that too. I would I would you know buy Sean's point that he loved watching Grace and Wilder if the podcast hadn't started with 15 minutes and walking through the back of the shot with Sean never turning around once and just carrying on chatting to us with his... I'm a professional. Yeah, he's a work. I'm a pro. How's the dog? Miljard's great. And Mildred's great. And Mildred, one of the nicest moments, obviously you have to be careful if you've got a dog and a baby. their to be careful. to. to to their, to be. to be. I I I I I. to be. their, to be their, their, their, to be to be their, their, to be their, their, to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be careful. I've to be careful, to be, I'm to bea, I'm to bea, I'm to be, I'm to be, I's, I's, I's, I to be, I to be to be to be careful. I to be careful. I to be careful. I to be careful. I to be careful. I to be careful. I to be to be to be to be to be to be to to to to their, I their, I's.

And there was a lovely moment a few days ago where Wilder was on the bed and I was kind of playing with Wilder and I looked over and Mildred, you know, she knows to keep her distance,
Starting point is 00:37:34 but she was in the corner of the bed and she just looked a bit lonely. And I said, I said, Mom, Molas, do want to come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come come. to come. to come. to come. to come. to come. to come. to come. to come. to come. to come. to come. to come. to come. to come. to come. to come. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to me with with with, to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. W. W. W. to. W. to. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. W. Wild. Wild. Wild. Wild. Wild. Wild. Wild. Wild. Wild. Wild. Wild. Wild. W. Wild. 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 over and she just gave Wilder the tiniest little kiss on the cheek. Right that didn't happen Sean. That did happen. I get dogs can't kiss Sean. I'm like lick Jesus. They can. They can. They lick. He licked. Yeah that's a kid. Well yeah I think you've got a different relationship to your dog than I've got with mine. Yeah Rob doesn't like his dog. I don't dislike Fred. That's that. That's. That's. That's. That's. That's that. 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 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 that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's the that's the the the the the thi 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 about this, no, but you've got a different relationship to your dog than I've got with mine. Yeah, Rob doesn't like his dog. I don't dislike the dog. I don't dislike Fred, the dog. What the giveaway is calling Fred the dog? No, but it's just when I think, we said before, anyone that gets a dog before the child, there is a slightly different dynamic because it is your baby, but when you've got your own two babies and then a dog arrives,
Starting point is 00:38:25 it's a fun part of the family, but it's not, it's, you've sort of, I've got my sort of like, cougy-goo-goo stuff out of me on my kids, but not the dog, and now I'm just like, look, mate, I'm tacked outpipe there's the legs everywhere it's a killer yeah but that's that's nice and I think I love the I love the moment where there's where all of you are together so if it's your entire family or if your family includes pets when there's just moment, you realize we're all together. I love, that's my favorite moment.
Starting point is 00:39:06 Yeah, no, that is, and that even when they get grown up as a bit more, like, we were all just got all the duvet down and put all the cushions from the sofa on the floor.

And I'm Sean Walsh. These are just some of the things we won't be talking about in our podcast, Oh My Dog. Not that we couldn't if we wanted to. Oh of course, of course we could. Obviously. We're both well known for our scaving satire and social commentary, but we've decided to set that aside to talk about our favorite subject. Dogs. Join us on our podcast, oh my dog. Subscribe wherever you get your podcasts and follow us on Instagram at OMD Pod. So one of your answers was that you were looking forward to squidging. That was one of your answers.
Starting point is 00:40:38 That was what you're most looking forward to. The squeezes, yeah. Well, I need to fess up here and luckily I've spoken to a few male friends who kind of have had the same thing because I was, I was getting paranoid. He never held it. Great, I let you hold her. Is this normal that Gracious and it's the first six months thing. And I have to leave and this other guy goes into the house. I don't know what the situation. Former health secretary.
Starting point is 00:41:10 Oh, for fun. Come on. Come on. Jesus wet. So, yeah, Wilder, and it's, which is changing now, but for the most part, Wilder has not, has not particularly enjoyed my company. Like, as if, as we've all been now as short. Yeah. Oh, my fu.
Starting point is 00:41:35 You should get her a job at the sun. What I mean, what I mean is, is that, so we did, well, we made a massive mistake. We've never, we've not really had, I got one the other day because I insisted we need, we need somewhere to put her. We didn't have, we weren't, there was nowhere to put her apart from the cock. Yeah, right. It was driving me nuts. It was like, it was like, basically, from the time you wake up, the baby, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, the the the the the the time, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, the the the the time, basically, basically, basically, basically, from, from, the time, the time, the time, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, basically, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, the time, 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, be like keeping a balloon in the air. Oh we've got great I've got a great suggestion here. Oh please. A bombo seat. Yeah. Bumbo seat. And then they basically it's for like babies about
Starting point is 00:42:11 your age or three months on where they just want to be sat up looking around not cradle. Yes. And you're sitting you can hold, you're sick of holding them like that, a bumbo seat, you can get them, they range from like 30 quid up to like you, like we have anything, you can pay silly money, but you're really, we had one and they're really good. But it would be on those things you spend 50 quid on and they use it for two months. And they want to be held. But my son just wanted to be held the whole time for six months. Well, one of the things that I've changed on Grace's advice, and it seems to have worked is apparently I was too, I was too up in a wilder's face. I can't imagine that, Sean.
Starting point is 00:42:56 And she didn't, she did, that's what, that's what she didn't like. So it wasn't me I hope brackets yeah right so personal space personal space do you know what you know what you know what you need is ring Matt Hancock a bit of social distancing I knew that I'm not giving a birth to Matt Hancock no sorry I got an help it sorry I could ask one more Matt Hancock thing did Did he give... I'm not giving him a break! I'm not giving birth to Matt Hancock! No, no, fair enough, but did he get your present? Did you get a present from Hancock? Yes.
Starting point is 00:43:33 What was it a fucking P.P.E. the treaty contract? Right, sorry. Right, let's start. I feel like we have mocked the week doing horse meat scandal again week after week. Right. Question. Yes. So we didn't actually get through talking to your morning. She wakes up at 8.30.
Starting point is 00:43:51 That's great. She wakes up about five for a feed and goes back and he's a blue. Yeah. Yes. There's probably that. Yeah. So does Grace. I don't know how to phrase this.
Starting point is 00:44:05 Has Grace basically made her peace with how useless she believes you are? I think Grace, if Grace was here, she would say yes. Right, yeah. In your defential you are on tour at the moment traveling and gig in late and getting home late. You know Rob, he's not just lazying about, he's a business tour. No, course. I'm not lying there like yes, so this is the difficult thing. I'm away, I had to go to Australia and Grace came out for the second half of that with Wilder. So how was the plane? She was great. She was great. Yeah. I'm a mask on. No idea this guy. I'm asking this guy. Yeah. Yeah. 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. I thi. I thi. I was thi. I was thi. I was thi. I was thi. I th. I th.

Starting point is 00:44:47 You fainted and I just pushed you through the airport, Sean. No, she's been really good. I mean, what I, my favorite bit is the, uh, putting her in the sling. Yeah, well, you said the sling actually is one of your three things you'd need. So okay. Yeah, so do you walk around with a structure from? Yes, I love that. Yeah. Because they because they knock out immediately. Yep. Yeah. Black out straight away. I did so much walking. So much walking in buggies or in, oh they prefer the buggy mine, but the
Starting point is 00:45:20 walking around parks and stuff. Yeah. I prefer the buggy. By the way, this is one of the first things I noticed that I said this to Rob in a WhatsApp I think, but I can't believe that I've spoke to so many. I've spoke to so many people. We talk. We talk. Don't worry Josh, we talk. How no one, how I've got this far through the, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, th. th. th.

Yes, Bond Street, please, if you are, if you have to go a pram, but you need to, not Bond Street. Don't go to Bond Street. You have to go, you have to go, in the Bond Street, you go down a lift.
Starting point is 00:46:27 You have to walk to find another lift that takes you up a floor. You're going up and down, it was like crystal maze. Just try to get to my platform. It's insane. I can't believe no one. But I can't believe that the the that the that that that the that that that tha that tha tha thiiia thia to to to to to thi, I to thi.

I don't think this is how Steve Wright is to do it.
Starting point is 00:47:25 No. Whitehaven, Millam, Southport Leeds, Birmingham, Birmingham, Bridgport, Taunton, Sheffield, Lester, Durham, Barnard Castle, Rob, thoughts, North Allenton. Tell you what, Rob, Sean, Barnard Castle? Any thoughts on that, considering the company you keep? Oh for God, leave him alive! This Dominic Cummings! He can't let him! I'm not joined the Tory party!
Starting point is 00:47:49 What's happening here? It's a completely different human being! Fucking hell! North Allerton, Leak, London, London, that's Leicester Square, so Amsterdam. Fucking out of Hagen, Oslo! Fucking out, Elshorn! I'm there. Hogan, Oslo? Stop fucking El, you're right. This is why you didn't want me to read them out. You're embarrassed by how it ended.
Starting point is 00:48:11 Antwerp. I need a break from the, from the family. It's been too stressful. What are you doing on your last night out in Antwerp. We should should should should should should should should should should should should should should shouldto see Sean Walsh. Do you sell big at Antwerp? Well we're going to find out. I know what I think. But guys, before we all fuck off to Antwerp, can we concentrate on the Hackley Empire? All right. What's happened is, Lester Squares sold out, then we'll put on another date, Les the Square is sold out. Here we go, he's going to the top, put on Hack the Empire.
Starting point is 00:48:50 Oh no, that was the capacity of people that wanted to see Sean. So if we can just concentrate on that Hackney Empire. I'm coming to just the Empire. Josh will be there. Just will be great, yeah. Buy a ticket, see Sean Walsh should hack the empire. Genuinely, now I know we've given you shit, you are one of if not the best live performers of the country.
Starting point is 00:49:12 I'm the best performer in the country. Well, I tell you what, you are the best person I've seen loads of people there. That was the only time I've actually seen the ceiling move. You absolutely rocked it. It was unbelievable. So make sure you get a ticket. Sean's an unbelievable comic. Yeah, he's absolutely the best. Terrible parent. Awful.
Starting point is 00:49:34 Awful. Awful. But a wonderful comedian. Bless you. Oh my god. I thoroughly enjoyed that episode. . . Bless you. Oh my God, I thoroughly enjoyed that episode, Sean. The only thing is we have to ask you, we didn't ask last time because you hadn't had the baby. What's the one thing Grace does parenting wise that you just look at her and go,
Starting point is 00:49:52 you are unbelievable, this is, you know, I'm so happy we've had a child together. But then what's the one thing she does of think that is a bit annoying and I don't think that's the right thing to do and if she did listen to this she may go actually that's a fair point Sean but it would be too difficult to say face to face. She won't she won't think that she definitely won't think that's a fair point. I think that's a good question. I think that the thing that I admire is the total tho that tho that tho that that tho that tho that that that that tho that tho that that thi that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that's that that that 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 that that that that that that that thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the thi the the thi thi thi thi. that that that that's a that's a that's a that's that's that's that I admire is the total and constant care and attention that she manages to give me and Wilder at the same time. Yeah, yeah, but I know but I think it's the I think it's the connection that a mother and the baby has so it's not a particular sorry I'm not giving you a particular thing. No, no, no, no, that's great. It's just amazing. I just find that absolutely
Starting point is 00:50:45 amazing when Grace makes Wilder smile and you get to witness that because, you know, with yourself, okay, with yourself, when you, when I make Wilder smile, as beautiful as that is, I'm not kind of getting to witness that moment because I'm in it. Yeah. Actually I find it more amazing and more awesome in its literal sense to to watch Grace and Wilder have that collection. I think that's absolutely amazing. The thing that I would say, okay definitely here's a thing that I just infuriates me. Is it where on the fourth wake up of the night she could be bitter and loud. That kettle going at 3 a.m. again. Can't you just have a cold cup of tea?
Starting point is 00:51:33 I've told you put it in a thermos at 7 p.m. The um is the cup right straight away I knew that I knew this would happen. The the cup holder the coffee cup holder came off the program early early doors right yeah and I knew that was going to be a problem and now when we go for walks with Mildred and the baby we've both got a coffee there's a big coffee like rotationary thing where it's all can you hold that I've got to pick up the boot can you because we've got nowhere to put the right yes but I've got to tell you the coffee
Starting point is 00:52:10 holder which was the my it says so much right I was really excited about the coffee holder yeah I remember Saint Rose when we did our John Lewis shop I was like we're getting the coffee the coffee holder yeah yeah 100 percent but and I've got no qualms getting the coffee holder. Yeah, yeah, 100%. But, and I've got no qualms with the Bugaboo B5, I thought it was an excellent, excellent button, really. But the suspension on a pram is so poor compared to a car that unless your coffee is half full, it's fucking right off that coffee holder in the first place. The tea is going everywhere or the coffee depending on you. Well what I'd say is I think is because you're getting in from independent coffee shops the sort of eco-friendly cup is a joke. However
Starting point is 00:52:51 if you pop to McDonald's a bit of landfill cup it's going nowhere just saying Rob. That is going. That will live longer than me that will never disintegrate however I'm not spilling coffee on my baby here you go Rob I'll tell you this now the deli they don't even do coffee cups you have to have a cup for life so shut up fuck off you are not coming to my hackney show you are bad No, we don't give our coffee cup. Well, all right, then pour it in my mouth. Pour it in my mouth now. I don't care how it is.
