Episode 13 – Role Reversal Dads (Final Episode)
The last episode of 2017 for Farter Figures is finally here!
I know it’s come a little late – but it’s now online for all of you to enjoy! You can listen below or on Itunes.
In this episode I have a very special guest live in the studio with me – my very own dad!
We talk about roles reversed when dads get older. Australia’s population is ageing so is it the kids who have the parenthood responsibility for their ageing parents?
We chat to my dad’s dad and Ronda Held who is the CEO of the Council of the Ageing Victoria.
I also interview wordsmith and co-host of Letters and Numbers David Astle about all the interesting linguistics behind the words dad and father!
On the last episode of the year we also wrap up the best of the best dad jokes, dad fashion and daddisms.
Enjoy and stay tuned for what’s next on Facebook!
