MAMAMIA PODCASTS
About this episode

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.
