In this episode of Ten Down, Terrie and David are back behind the mics for a long-overdue catch-up! From navigating the chaos of the past few weeks to prepping for the arrival of baby #2, it’s all systems go in the McPatrick household.They’re dishing on everything emotions, nursery nesting, and the unexpected moments that have come while on a break from podcasting. Plus, they’re pulling back the curtain on exciting new segments (and guests) coming to the show that’ll bring even more real talk, relatable laughs, and funny moments to your ears.Consider this the calm(ish) before the baby storm. Let’s go!!

It’s a proper kitchen-table catch-up this week as Terrie and David go from Irish surnames and dodgy glasses, to the absolute headwreck of top-up phones, loud chewing, and trying to get five minutes’ peace in a house full of kids and dogs. They recap the Stellar Awards (arriving last, of course), share the “good news segment” about pets finally being allowed on public transport, and get into the big one: social media for kids, digital footprints, and why platforms should be doing more. Plus, Miles’ first birthday teddy bear picnic, and Terrie’s thought‑provoking message from a single mam that turns into a lesson in grace — before a maddening NSPCA waiting-room story that explains exactly why shelters are bursting.

David’s back from Portugal sounding “bunged up” but feeling weirdly fresh — because he’s officially in his “granddad hours” era: loads of water, the odd 7Up, and not writing himself off for once. The pair chat sober-curious life, balance, and why nights out hit different now. Then the episode takes a turn as they open up about David’s health scare: a 40th-birthday blood test, high iron, genetic testing, and his first venesection. It’s honest, a bit heavy, and a big reminder to be proactive and advocate for yourself. Plus: the foster puppies are still running the house.

Terrie has officially upped the ante… and David is in bits. One minute they’ve three kids, the next it feels like five — because Terrie has brought home not one, but TWO foster puppies from the NSPCA. They’re seven weeks old, adorable puppies and suddenly David’s packing for Portugal while Terrie’s bracing herself to solo-parent the full zoo.Also on the menu: the Brown Thomas carpark scrape that’ll cost a small fortune, a chaotic night that turns into 4am shots with The Weeknd’s security, and the big “sober curious” chat—are they finally giving up the drink?
