You're going to f*ck up your kids
2026/10/20
With the recent arrival of Matt Ward's third child, Leigh Hart thought it'd be a good idea to get on a parenting expert to tell him exactly what he's doing wrong.
Jacqlin Richards is the author of the #1 bestseller F*ck Up Your Kids With Grace And Humour, and is joining the lads to discuss how the way your parented impacts your whole life, why there's no such thing as a perfect parent, and whether you should strap your kids to ziplines to get around the house.

How speed cooking led to Leigh Hart's divorce
2026/06/16
Notorius women experts Leigh Hart and Matt Ward are back this week to chat about the hobbies men do that are most attractive according to women, and ask the important question: are they right?

Leigh shares a hilarious story of being judged by All Black Beauden Barrett on the golf course, and Matt asks if you'd let your parents watch everything you've ever done in your entire life for $1 billion. Or maybe it was $100 million. It gets a little confused.
