We're swapping cradles for the courtroom to share a special episode of our comedy podcast Cancelled.

Instead of celebrity crimes, we are cancelling the way in which most of us came to this earth... BIRTH.

From the 'wet mess' to the smells and the pain we deep dive into all the reasons birth needs a logistical rethink.

PSA: if you are about to give birth or are a bit squeamish might want to give this one a miss.

Have you ever looked at a toddler and thought… why on Earth are you doing that?! Well, you’re not alone.

From post-daycare meltdowns to parental preferences, toddlers have a unique way of expressing themselves that can sometimes be challenging to comprehend.

Parenting expert Gen Muir is joined by Matty J and Fiona Falkiner to swap toddler terror stories and share some practical tips to help understand toddler behaviour and how to manage it.

Ah the baby bubble.

Full of sleepless nights, feeding struggles, meltdowns (yours, not the baby) nappy blowouts... and then they're one.

In the final episode of season 2, beloved weatherman, media personality and author Sam Mac joins us to reminisce on the first year of his daughter's life.

There comes a time in most parents lives where they ask the question... should we have another kid?

If the answer is yes, you can't always guarantee you know, or get, what you've signed up for.

That's exactly what happened when ABC Journalist and Podcast Host Matt Bevan and his wife Rachel looked to expand their family... they got a lot more than they bargained for.

Okay, so international travel is stressful at the best of times. Got your passport? packed all your medication? do you have enough underware?

Now image throwing a tiny human into the mix...

From strategic seat selection, to the realisation of just how inaccessible some major tourist city's are, Sami Shah has been there and done that.

If you hadn't heard, babies generate a lot of waste. Like, more waste than we care to admit.

So naturally swinging from one extreme (environmental disaster) to another (zero waste) should be a seamless, obvious choice, right?

WRONG. This week Veronica Milsom reminds us about the time she tried to raise her second baby... waste free.

Warning: this episode contains something called elimination communication (look, idk...)

Last season Clare regaled us with a story about her husband's standing ovation at a cafe for... *checks notes* being a dad? (you can hear that here)

And we fear today, Jordan Watson is about to do something similar.

Known for his highly entertaining instructional videos on how to dad Jordan wants to tell us about the times he's "solo dadded".

We looked it up, not a real verb.
