These are the two subjects discussed in our latest Attic Life podcast which, you should be warned, contains one or two swear words. Apologies in advance for that, but, well... f**k you.
Just joking, of course. We begin by expressing our thoughts on what it's like to be a parent, whether it's better to have kids when you're older or younger, and whether there's really anything you can do to be a better parent before the reality of it all sets in.
After that, it's onto swearing - an activity many of us engage in, but can you have too much of a good thing? When does swearing stop being funny and turn into monotonous, inane rubbish? We look at the words we say, the way we say them and the situations when swearing simply isn't the done thing...

Great podcast again chaps, the whole parenting and swearing topic made me laugh, it reminded me of the time as an 11 year old when Q.P.R. achieved the impossible and reached the 1982 F.A.Cup Final . I had been going to games with my Dad for a good few years by then with my Dad barely reacting to any of the usual emotions of the game. Here we are though at the showpiece event of the game in this country in the top price banded seats ( that's a story for another day) when my Dad stood up as the detestable Steve Archibald of Spurs got flagged offside and loudly shouted 'Wanker" as he proceeded to give him a Gareth Hunt "Nescafe handshake". This was the first time I had heard my Dad react in this way at a game, maybe I had heard a few choice words when someone had cut him up in traffic, he however upped his game for this prestigious occasion.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with Rich's take on parents swearing in front of their kids in general conversations the example he gave I have heard many times, it does make me think " what chance have the kids got if their parents speak to them like that?"
Once again, thanks for another great podcast.
Cheers
