This week on Dads at Work, we sit down with Dan Hadfield – the world’s number one Gary Barlow tribute act – to talk about the highs, lows, and downright surreal moments of life in the spotlight and at home.

Dan shares the story of his unlikely career – from humble beginnings to performing for thousands, all while juggling the school run and snack times. Along the way, we dive into the infamous second look at Domino’s that ended with eating pizza from on top of the bin (yes, really), the indulgent joy of a Double Decadence, and why sometimes life feels more like a messy curry than a perfectly plated dish.

The chat takes a wonderfully chaotic detour as Max, Tom, and Dan bounce off each other’s madness — including Max’s top parenting tip: screaming loudly into a pillow.

This episode is packed with laughs, stories, and reminders that behind every star is a dad just trying to hold it all together.

In this episode, Max and Tom sit down with a dad who's built his own business from the ground up — all while learning guitar, valuing his time more intentionally, and navigating the highs (and hilarious moments) of parenting.

From the practicalities of starting up to being talked into a full set of painted nails by his daughter mid-flight, this one’s a reminder that being a dad means showing up in more ways than one.

This time on the podcast, Tom and Max sit down with Dan Flanagan, founder of DadLaSoul—a movement that's redefining modern fatherhood through creativity, community, and connection. Dan shares the why behind DadLaSoul, how he's juggled family, work, and a mission for change, and his bold plans to take it even further. Along the way, we uncover a personal vendetta against Daddy Pig, question the world of Peppa Pig, and explore what happens when dads are given space to be themselves.
