Two Tired Dads

QAnon and Cubs

Wed, 21 Dec 2022 22:58:13 GMT

Kev and Andy blast through the 100-follower mark on Twitter and celebrate by cancelling Instagram. After a brief diversion via TikTok, QAnon, and how to get rich quick schemes, they discuss the wonderful world of Cubs (aka junior Scouts), and Kev gives Andy some DIY pointers (oh, the irony). The whisky under review: a Talisker something-or-other.

Tasting Plate

Wed, 21 Dec 2022 22:57:27 GMT

Kev is jaunting around the South Island of New Zealand with his family in a campervan, and has left Andy in charge of the mic. With great power comes great responsibility. So rather than going rogue, Andy has put together a tasting plate - a smorgasbord if you will - of the best bits of Two Tired Dads to date. Tuck in.

It's Electrifying

Wed, 21 Dec 2022 22:55:16 GMT

If you've never had the pleasure of touching an electric fence, fear not - Kev and Andy share their experiences. They discuss what it's like to return to New Zealand after years living overseas and, in a spirit of patriotism, they review a patriotic spirit - New Zealand's own whisky, the Thomson Smoked Manuka Progress Report.

The One about Twitter

Wed, 21 Dec 2022 22:54:56 GMT

Kev and Andy marvel at the wonders of social media; muse on whether the Fifth Horseman of the Apocalypse will come wearing Yeezys; and compare notes on how their parents used to try to bump them off on family holidays. In Dad's Drams this week: the Laphroaig 10YO.

Children vs Pets

Wed, 21 Dec 2022 22:52:20 GMT

The dads muse on having a third child, are shocked by the immoral behaviour of poodles, and discuss why men are terrible at socialising. They also have many, many objections to online reviews of the Aberlour 12 Year Old, which turns out to be a very drinkable drop.

Quarantine, whisky and why did we have kids?

Wed, 21 Dec 2022 04:36:22 GMT

In this inaugural episode, Kev and Andy broadcast remotely from their respective domestic prisons.
