Have you ever tried to sleep angry?

In this episode we ask Austin Hampshire what his dad gets up to in his free time, which involves a significant number of live firearms. Austin tells us about his dad’s love of cycling, shooting and VR gaming. We talk M.A.M.I.Ls, why dads always have all the gear and no idea, and recount Austin’s days as a child shooting protégé; complete with his own little tweedy outfit.

We also rant about the insanity of organised running events that ruin the city, the impossibility of finding a decent parking space in Swansea city centre, and discuss whether Joe really did run over a pigeon in his car live on a call with Max.

Finally we hear some great dad-vice on how to beat insomnia!

Have you read Harry Lawyer and the Lawyer of Azkaban?

In this episode we ask Austin Hampshire when he last touched his dad. Austin rolls back the tape on his dad touches to the emotional time he missed the deadline to hand in his dissertation, and we also discuss how Austin keeps in dad touch, explore why his dad texts him like a work colleague, and dive into the only book Austin has ever seen his dad read.

We also (dad)touch on dads’ obsession with the news, Austin’s best (and worst) dad jokes, and find out the one beloved celebrity his dad despises.

How many ducks does your dad weigh?

Welcome back to Who’s Your Daddy…Really? - the ONLY podcast brave enough to ask the question: “When did you last touch your dad?”

In Episode 9 we welcome our very first guest - writer, comedian, and former Cardiff University Comedy Society President Austin Hampshire.

In this first instalment of our chat with Austin we dig into his father figures, from Austin’s complicated emotional relationship with the LEGO Star Wars games, to the impressive power of his dad’s arsenal of firearms.

We also chat about our wild weekend at Big Love Festival while Joe recounts the time he absolutely died at a Father’s Day comedy night - with his own dad sitting in the audience.

Which character from the Bible would you want as a dad?

Welcome back to Who’s Your Daddy… Really? for Part 3 of our Christmas Specials: this time for some Gooch Gabble - the episode that lives in that strange festive limbo between Christmas Day and New Year, where nothing is real, trousers don’t fit, and no one knows what day it is.

In this episode, your hosts Joe Dehuai and Max Jones attempt to make sense of the Gooch of 2025 — the gooey, lawless stretch of time where routines collapse and dads truly come into their own. We discuss what day it even is (and why Max thinks you’re an idiot if you don’t know), settle the important question of what the best cracker is on the cheeseboard, analyse what your nativity play casting says about you, and decide which character from the Bible we’d most want to have as a dad.

Plus we chat about the time things got a bit out of hand when Joe saw his parents at a local Wetherspoons in front of South Wales comedy royalty.

It’s a loose-limbed, post-Christmas ramble through dads, religion, cheese logistics and festive confusion — the perfect companion for leftovers, low batteries, and that creeping sense you should probably go back to work soon.

Stay horizontal, keep snacking, and join us for Part 3 of our Christmas descent.

Who's the best Christmas movie dad of all time?

Welcome back to Ho-Ho-Who’s Your Daddy… Really? for Part 2 of our Christmas Special, where your hosts Joe Dehuai and Max Jones put festive fatherhood on trial. This time, we’re ranking all the dads of Christmas cinema - from absolute deadbeats to the big man himself, Father Christmas.

In this episode, we tackle the perennial question of whether Die Hard is actually a Christmas film (and why this argument may never die), reveal the surprising reason Joe once watched Elf in October, and explain why Richard Curtis needs to be stopped before he does any more damage the British culture. Along the way, we unpack the hidden meaning of Chekhov’s Duckbus and ask what truly makes a great Christmas movie dad — emotional availability, gift-giving prowess, or just not disappearing halfway through Act Two.

It’s a festive ranking, a cinematic reckoning, and another deep dive into dads, films, and seasonal nonsense that spirals exactly where you’d expect.

Put the mince pie down, stop arguing with your family, and join us for Part 2 of our Christmas descent.

Do you know what to get your dad for Christmas? Let us guide you!

Welcome to Ho-Ho-Who’s Your Daddy… Really? for the first instalment of our Christmas Special! Join your hosts Joe Dehuai and Max Jones as we unwrap the festive chaos that is our dads at Christmas.

In this episode, we compare our wildly contrasting family Christmases, from traditions that should probably be illegal to festive routines that raise more questions than answers. We ask what Santa actually brings the kiddies in North Korea, investigate the dark side of how NORAD tracks Santa’s global operation, and uncover what is deeply wrong with Max’s uncle’s digestive tract.

It’s a festive deep-dive into dads, family myths, international Christmas logistics, and bodily functions nobody asked about -but everyone gets told anyway.

Grab a mulled drink, hide the selection box, and join us for Part 1 of our Christmas descent.

Do you know which moths are “HOT” right now?

Welcome to Who’s Your Daddy…Really? — the ONLY podcast that asks the question: “When did you last touch your dad?”

In Episode 5 your hosts, Joe Dehuai and Max Jones, wade boldly into the world of paternal pastimes- from gardening to getting drunk on the golf course! We dive into Alvin’s restaurant reviews, explore why Rick Stein is evil, and what happens to your train set when you get divorced.

We also discuss the day we all gave up on our beloved seamonkeys, why moths seem unemployed, and question why Jamie Oliver gave his children names that sound like discontinued Labubus.

There’s also some practical tips for listeners looking to get into dad hobbies of their own, including putting wheels on all your woodworking projects, giving the gift of sourdough (with a musty jar of floury slurry) and how to “pimp” your dinnertimes with some lemon (for brightening).

We’d love to hear more of your stories - what’s your dad’s weird hobby? Get in touch at the address below!

Do you know the dangers of 'flumping'?

Welcome to Who’s Your Daddy…Really? And this time we’re asking *YOU* the question: “When did you last touch your dad?”

In Episode 4, your hosts Joe Dehuai and Max Jones dive headfirst into the mailbag for the very first time - Join us as we read out your emails, including a great dad-ecdote from friend of the pod, comedian Elenia Parkes!

We discover how dads cut loose (on countryside walks), why you should never get on the back of a boy’s motorbike, and the dangers of 'flumping'.

We also talk about the difficulties of buying birthday presents for dads, where the best spots are for a dads night out in Newport, and whether two men can make sweet sweet honey together…
