Pro Dad tip take your 4yo to a posh hotel 😂😂😂

@olly.mann tells @stuartgoldsmithcomedy and @thepricetom about an embarrassing time at Soho Farmhouse - and Tom shares his own toddler nightmare…

Every year these three dads meet up to share notes in How To Be A Dad. Think boyhood but British dads and in podcast form.

Cripes even the swimming pool at my gym is going Reform

I’ve got TEN pets at home (if you include the chickens and goldfish...), so animal welfare is a subject close to my heart.

But 'end-of-life care' is rarely part of the conversation.

When the time comes, most pet owners are simply told, 'we've done all we can do'... and offered in-clinic euthanasia.

So it was a pleasure to meet Dr Caroline Flicker this week - Britain’s first at-home palliative care vet.

We spoke about grief, guilt, family, love, and the decisions we make for the animals who become part of our lives.

Check out our conversation on The Modern Mann, and let me know what you think. 🐾

It’s not every day you’re named “highly commended” for uncontrollably giggling whilst supping wine through plastic teets, but that is what has befallen @themodernmannpod team this evening. A fun and silly night at @CheerfulEarfulPodFest’s #GoldenLobes awards, where scooped runner up for ‘Best Blooper’, thanks to @alixfox's insane imagination and producer @virtualmh's misplaced love of light entertainment

I’m back on Times Radio hosting Drive this weekend, in for Ayesha.

Some of my brilliant guests, today from 4pm:

🚀 astronaut @Cmdr_Hadfield on Artemis II

💻 @JamieJBartlett answers your questions on AI

🇮🇷 @AlanEyre1 on the peace talks in Islamabad

🏝️ @b_judah on the Chagos farago

📰 talking politics with @RMCunliffe & albieamankona

🤣 @MrSteveAllen & Kate Cheka in our comedy panel...

... And more!

Cheryl Bennett doesn’t follow politics. But when her colleague said he was standing in local elections, she agreed to help deliver leaflets.

Within days, doorbell video footage was circulating online, in which Cheryl could be seen calling prospective voters “f***ing P*kis”.

Cheryl had never said such words, but wasn’t sure anyone believed her.

After being posted by an independent candidate for West Midlands mayor - ‘TikTok lawyer’ Akhmed Yakoob - the deepfake went viral, receiving over two million views across TikTok, Facebook and X.

Cheryl was sent death threats. Police were sent to her house to arrest her. She was forced into hiding. Her career as a PE teacher was put on hold. And, even after the video was proven to be an AI distortion, she is still feeling the consequences years later.

In her first podcast interview, Cheryl tells me how her world turned upside down - all because she did a favour for a friend…

Absolutely loved #CaliforniaSchemin - a funny, fast-paced, endearing British film of the kind we supposedly don’t make anymore. Two great young actors playing the leads too.

It’s the incredible true story of two white teenagers from Dundee who fake American accents in order to get signed as hip-hop stars in a London record industry that is looking for the next Eminem but cannot abide their Scottishness.

It’s a great portrayal of both the music industry of the noughties, and I can say, of what it’s like being in a double-act as well - having a shared experience between two different personalities.

Nine years ago, I interviewed Gavin Bain - whose story the film is based on - for The Modern Mann, and we’ve just re-released it on our feed so you can hear it again. The real tale involved a bit more death, and was obviously a bit less Hollywood-linear, but the spirit of his plucky adventures remains intact!
