DINK (Doubly Informed, No Kids)
Hosted by DINK Podcast · EN
As Thomas and James noticed their friends becoming parents - one thing jumped out: parents love giving advice to other parents. And so they thought: “Why not us?”
Kid-ing aside, James and Thomas are two non-parents who have always been uncertain but curious about parenthood. As the hosts of DINK, they ponder on questions related to parenthood from the non-parent perspective - from speculating on how to deal with the day-to-day changes of being a parent to discussing what being responsible for another human being might teach us about what it means to be human ourselves.
Whether you’re a parent looking for some unbiased (and unsolicited) advice, or a fellow childless adult wondering about how to fit in this parent-ful world (you’re not alone!), tune in to DINK!
