We’re back for a bit of a catch up with beers as always provided by our good friends at Beer Heroes - Si picked them, so they’re his fault! We chat about how ‘dad’ we are, how we’re doing, how Glenn’s true love is and Si has some fairly sizeable news.

HELP!! Before we’ve even released episode 20 in full, we’re onto the next, and we need YOUR help!

Si has a parenting dilemma and wants to hear from other parents about your experiences to help make some decisions…

The topic is POCKET MONEY 💰
Drop us a DM or comment below and we might share your experience in the pod (just let us know in DM if you want to be anon).

1. At what age did you start giving your kids pocket money?
2. Was it conditional on behaviour/chores or unconditional?
3. How much did you give and how did it increase over time?
4. Anything else interesting…

Big thanks to our JRD community. Love you 3000 ✌🏻

Thanks for the love guys. We really appreciate any feedback, advice or stories for the Just Real Dads Podcast. It gives us the boost we need to know it is helping or at least entertaining people! Peace!

EPISODE 18: ‘DUDE, WHERE’S MY TESLA?’ IS LIVE

Hey! Welcome to our first episode of 2024! We wanted to hit the ground running this year. Ryan and Si had the opportunity to sit down with Jamie Northrop local businessman and all-round mega-dad!

Jamie is a dad and step-dad to 4 girls including twins! We talk logistics, struggles and celebrations of fatherhood as well as how to balance work and life (or at least try!). Have a listen, get in touch and hit us up with a decent review - if you don’t mind, of course!

And if you’re local or visiting Chester, please do check out Jamie’s awesome venues, and in Rufus Court.

A small insight into the editing magic that happens for each episode. In order to slim line each episode, take out the one or two inappropriate comments made and generally make us 4 sound like we know what we’re doing, can we give a like on this post please for our editor, Si, oh and Buzz the dog! By the way this means Episode 18 with our special guest is dropping very soon.

14/01/2024

Some of you may have decided along with some of us over here at JRD to take up dry January - no alcohol throughout January. Sometimes it’s hard to find ones that are actually tasty and enjoyable just like a real beer. Here are just some of the ones that we have tried and gone back for another one. Any other recommendations let us know. .belgium .uk

Wow time flies!! If you haven’t listened yet and are new to being a parent give the Just Real Dads podcast a listen. We are four dads with children between 6 and 22, who talk a lot of gibberish, drink some delicious beer thanks to our sponsorship with Beer Heroes Chester and share the odd parenting pearls of wisdom, Stu is very good at this!

It’s available on Spotify and apple podcast and our instagram tag is which tends to give more up to date info. If you’ve been one of our regular listeners, thank you for taking the time and we hope we have entertained and provided some help or guidance in your own parenting journey.

Happy New Year to all our faithful listeners. Even if we are a week in already we’ve all been busy with quality family time. We hope you all had a great Christmas with your families and have had a good start to 2024……
We are very excited to share some podcast news with you about the next couple of months. We will be having a Chester Entrepreneur, businessman, father of 4 and general legend on our next episode and the JRD boys have been given permission from our wives to go on a small tour. York we’ll be having ya!

Our Third Christmas episode is due to come out soon. Before it does please remember these four things now it’s getting closer to Christmas.
1. It’s totally fine to wrap old presents for babies and toddlers, they won’t know the difference and just love opening it up. Try to find a toy or book they haven’t played with for a while and use that. 2. It’s been said time and again but don’t feel the pressure of having to spend £100’s of pounds on your children, the best thing they want over the Christmas period is ‘YOUR’ presence. Be around to play games and be silly and have fun together. 3. Don’t feel the pressure of having to visit loads of expensive days out over Christmas, we’ve decided some Saturdays we’re going to make a yummy dinner together, play games or watch a Christmas film with hot chocolate together. 4. Social media can be such a powerful tool, both positive and negative. Don’t let other people’s own scenario dictate yours. We have no idea what goes on behind these posts where families look like they have it all together and that their Christmas together is perfect. Nothing is perfect, it’s ok if some things don’t look right or if someone burns the stuffing. Just remember - love each other over the Christmas time and be there when someone asks if you will play with them or help to set stuff up. MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL! Christmas episode incoming!

What are you doing Easter Sunday morning? Just like a tap takeover, JRD are taking over the Vineyard53 All in gathering. Lots of fun, silly games, lots of chocolate and Stu in a bunny costume. Come along 10:30am at bridge house, handbridge, Chester. Happy Easter and massive love from all the team here at JRD

WE’RE BACK! 👋🏻

It took us a little longer than planned to bring this episode together, but we hope you’ll enjoy it…

This episode is our first ever interview, hopefully the first of many! Si sat down with Ryan & Andrea to discuss the journey they've been on with their son, Jonah, following his recent ADHD diagnosis. The interview is honest, and it's great to hear about what that diagnosis journey's been like. BUT it's our first one; we’ve never edited an interview into the pod before, so be gentle with us 😇 We'll keep trying to perfect our craft like a fine beer 🍺

Let us know what you think, send us your Qs and story’s, particuarly if you’d like to share your real parenting journey with the JRD pod. Slide into the DMs (as the cool kids say).

As always thanks to for the support and fine beers.

Happy Father’s Day ya’all!!! Today can be a day of mixed emotions for some people, of dads we’ve lost, those we didn’t have the best relationship with their dad growing up and for some might not have ever met their dad. All we can say from the JRD Crew is a massive Father’s Day, you are the apple of your son or daughters eye and even though we don’t have the parental stuff all figured out we’re doing our best along the way.
