As we all drag our tired parent bodies to the end of the year, the boys' focus has moved to sleep and how they can get more of it.

They dive into fierce debates over bunk beds and baby blankets and their answers might surprise you!

Meanwhile another week and another e-bike fiasco for Matt - they say bad luck comes in threes so hopefully after this one it'll be clear riding from here on?!

And Ash has finally lost his mind... literally.

One minute he's telling a story, the next minute... everything goes blank.

We're still trying to figure out exactly what happened but needless to say many LOLS are had.

Plus the Christmas fail that almost burns the house down.

‘Tis the season to let loose, indulge and dive into the holidays, stomach first.

Matt opens up about his sex life life after baby #3 and how Poppy's presence in the room is somewhat ruining the mood. 

Meanwhile Ash divulges all the dirty details of his recent Vegas trip, including his fall from grace going from "the penthouse to the shithouse".

Plus little Lola has graduated from preschool and it's got Matt feeling all the feels - his little girl is growing up and he's not ready!

And the Christmas fail that made granny blush - you'll never believe what she found in her secret Santa!

Laura's back with Poppy in tow and she's dishing all the dirt on how Matt's doing as a third-time-dad. 

Hint: he's bringing all the positive vibes (just don't ask him to cook with Poppy strapped to him).

Laura opens up about Poppy's healing nature and how their girls are adapting as a family of five (including Lola's surprise hot-take on her baby sister).

And she answers the big question.. does she feel complete with three or could there be room for one more in their lives?!

The answer even has Ash doing a double take! 

Plus how they make time for each other now they're lives are busier than ever.

This episode gives you the perfect peek inside this crazy beautiful time in their lives, it's one you won't want to miss.

If you’re into ASMR of people eating apples then this episode is for you… Ash has an incredible trick with an apple that accidentally aroused his wife.

He’s also got a new tattoo… and it’s big .. but he maintains it’s not the size that matters ;)

Matt has been lashing out at random strangers again - last week it was a van driver, this week’s it’s a photographer he’s set his anger on but was it is mis-directed this time? Perhaps the festive season is getting to him early.

And speaking of festive - we hear more of your hilarious Christmas fails including the Dad who forgot to pack any presents when the went away Christmas. Let’s just say Santa got lost for some kids that year.

It's a deep one today and it's a question the boys aren't taking lightly.

In fact Ash reveals he's back with his psychologist to talk through his concerns over how he's parenting Oscar and his big feelings.

While Matty reveals the kids aren't the only ones struggling to regulate their emotions after he had a run in with another driver.

We get an update on Marlie's annual dance concert and the surprising "other" show that is held at the hall.

And with the festive season approaching faster than a kid at a candy shop the boys share listeners' hilarious Christmas fails including a dog poo disaster that's got to be one for the record books.

We're into another chaotic week with the kids but this time it's Buster who's in the naughty corner. 

Ash shares why his daughter's hunger has no bounds, even when it comes to saving the seals and Matt reveals how he became the innocent victim of a water gun attack.

The boys learn what the actual meaning of 'Baby on Board' means, plus a listener has shared what could be the greatest dinner-time hack of all time (and could save your sanity at the dinner table).

Aaaaand the countdown to Christmas is well and truly on with the boys debating whether it's too early to be putting the tree up - if at all!

Matty J's wife, Laura, has been accused of throwing out an expensive bottle that belongs to producer Jess (it has a metal top, mind you!) Should she be blamed for this horrible act, though? 

Speaking of throwing out important things. Who in your household has the desire of someone who wants to live in a museum? Ash complains about losing items to the tip. 

It's also Grandparents' Day, and Matty J had to step in for Nana, as she has found herself in the hospital again. 

The boys also check in with former guest and friend of the show, Hugo Toovey, to hear how he's faring post what we hope will be his last major surgery. 

To top off a chaotic week with the kids, Marlie-Mae leaves Daddy a sweet Lunchbox note that brings everyone to tears.

You know Ryan as one-half of the Toni and Ryan show. He also happens to be a dad to little toddler Mabel! 

From the time his partner Bridget squeezed his fake finger a bit too hard during labour to getting in trouble at school for not throwing an eraser... Ryan’s got stories.

He also opens up about being adopted, meeting his biological parents for the first time, and the very risky joke Toni dropped at the family reunion.

Yes, the lasagna really was really good.

It's been a while since Daddy Ash has had an "accident" in public. Unfortunately, it happened at the worst place possible and has left him scarred ever since. 

Matty J has found a way to sort out Lola's phantom "tummy aches" at the doctors. Is he an evil genius or just a very loving dad?!
