šŸŽ‰ IT’S OUR 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY EPISODE šŸŽ‰
Thank you for being part of the chaos this past year. This episode has everything: tears, arguments, near-death experiences and one VERY controversial Mother’s Day debate.
This week with Matty & Esther:
We receive a heartfelt message from someone about to become a grandparent at just 44… and it genuinely hits us hard. There may be tears.
We’ve discovered the first thing wives can do that husbands absolutely CANNOT… and the double standard is outrageously unfair.
HOT TOPIC: Who is Mother’s Day really about? The mums still deep in the trenches… or the grandmothers who already did their time? Yep… we’re going there.
And Esther has a near-death experience at Nando’s — caused entirely by Matt being an idiot.
If you’ve ever survived parenting, marriage, family group chats or a public argument over chips… this one’s for you.

54. How To Tell It's True Love!

Thursday May 07, 2026

Thursday May 07, 2026

This week’s episode is a quick one but somehow Matty & Esther still manage to cover way too much.
Esther’s seriously thinking about getting a boob job, but after finding out what the surgery and recovery actually involve… she’s having second thoughts. Some of the details are genuinely hectic.
We found something on one of the kids’ phones that completely shocked us and now we don’t know whether to laugh, panic, or both.
And we’ve discovered the one thing that apparently proves a man truly loves you. It’s ridiculous… but also kind of true.
As always, we’d love you to join the chaos too. Share your stories with us on Instagram, TikTok and Facebook — just search Underaged Grandparents Podcast.

53. Orgasim Manifesting

Thursday Apr 30, 2026

Thursday Apr 30, 2026

This week on Underaged Grandparents… it escalates quickly.
We jump on the trend turning our kids’ texts into songs — and if you’ve got a teen boy, you already know how chaotic this gets
Everyone’s doing gratitude journals… but is a hate list actually more effective?
Manifesting, but make it unhinged — we’re talking ā€œorgasm manifestingā€ to make your dreams come true
And we’ve found a mum who would quite literally commit a crime for her kids… and honestly, we kind of get it

Thursday Apr 23, 2026

This week with Matty & Esther… it’s chaos from start to finish:
Ever been in a one-sided fight… where you’re going off and the other person has NO idea? Yep, we’ve all been there.
Is Esther a bad grandmaĀ for ignoring the parents’ rules about the dummy? You be the judge…
Sleepovers: fun as a kid, traumatising in hindsight. The moment you realised your friend’s family was weird… (and yes, someone had a poo towel)
And a leaked voice note from a VERY overstimulated mum has us in absolute hysterics

This week we sit down with Aussie Olympic legend Libby Trickett — but this isn’t the version you’ve heard before.
Yes, she’s one of Australia’s most decorated swimmers — gold medals, world records, the lot — but we wanted to meet the real Libby.
We dive into:
The chaos of raising five kids while juggling work and life
What she was really like as a teenager (hint: not what you’d expect)
The wild moment at her own wedding where she had to sneak under a marquee to dodge paparazzi
And beyond the pool, Libby’s now on a mission to keep kids in sport through her podcast Sportish — sharing practical tips from elite athletes and experts to help parents support their kids without the pressure.

50. Coachella & Children

Friday Apr 17, 2026

Friday Apr 17, 2026

This week with Matty & Esther:
School holidays are in full swing… and so is the chaos.
Mum vs Dad: Who actually spoils the kids more? (Hint: it’s not as obvious as you think)
Esther gets absolutely humbled by girls in their 20s… and yeah, it hits harder than expected
Coachella - They don't party like we used to!!
Do men need to give more detail… or are women asking way too many questions?
And we put it to the test: Can Esther tell what’s valuable in Matt’s shed… or is it all just junk?
Plus the usual unfiltered chaos, questionable takes, and things you’ll definitely argue about in the car.
