This episode is a break from dealing with particular issues and we celebrate Being Dad with a dad who is known for his "fast temper" in the kitchen and for having "kissed the Blarney Stone". He is,of course, Irish Australian MKR star and awesome chef Colin Fassnidge.Alex and Colin have a wide ranging chat about their experiences of Being Dad from talking about the birds and the bees to what being in the public eye has meant to Colin's style of parenting.We do touch on mental health issues (it is hard not to these days) so please if you are affected in any way and need help take a look at the resources below.Get help now -don't wait for the shit to hit the fan.Links and ResourcesLifeline Australia Crisis Support & Suicide Prevention.
