About this listen

 Welcome to the Dead Dad's Club (The DDC) - the club that nobody wants to join, but somehow we all did. We are 5 friends, who've known each other for over 15 years, and we all lost our Dads before turning 30. What started as a safe space and support system between friends, turned into a podcast, where we talk about grief, life, memories and everything in between. Expect trauma responses, dark humour, questionable advice and the occasional emotional moment. This space is for honest and real chats, shared experiences, and to expand our safe space to others who might be going through the same. Trigger warning: Conversations of grief, death, trauma & dark humour. Find us on instagram for more @deadads.clubThe DDC Podcast Social Sciences

    The Big C Chat (F U CANCER)
    Apr 17 2026

    Join us for episode 2 - The Big C Chat (F U CANCER)


    Just a quick one before we start — this episode’s a hard listen. we’re talking about cancer, grief, and losing our dads, so please take care if this hits close to home 🤍


    In this episode, Leah, Georgia and Olivia are in the hot seat, as Kerry and Emma ask them questions about their cancer journeys and losing their dads.


    They share the build-up, the anticipatory grief, the hardest moments, and the parts people don’t often talk about. From chemo conversations to the moments that broke them, and the ones that made them proud, this episode explores what those experiences really looked like.


    They also introduce their unofficial mascot, Duncan the Dragon 🐉


    Honest, emotional, and at times chaotic — with dark humour and swearing throughout, and of course left on a grounded note 🤍

    If you’re going through anything similar — whether you’re supporting someone with cancer or navigating loss — we’ve shared some places to get support over on our Instagram.


    Take care of yourselves. 🦋

  • The Moment That Changed Everything...

    The Moment That Changed Everything...
    Apr 2 2026

    Five friends under 30 come together for the very first episode of Dead Dad Club, a podcast born out of shared loss and unexpected connection. In this opening conversation, we each introduce ourselves and tell our stories of how we lost our Dads - the moments that changed us and ultimately brought us into the DDC. With honesty, humour, and vulnerability, we begin to unpack grief in a way that feels real and relatable.

    This podcast exists because we know we’re not alone, and neither are you.

    Dead Dad Club is about creating space for conversations people often avoid, finding light in dark moments, and building a community where loss is understood, shared, and even laughed about sometimes.


    Trigger warning: Conversations of grief, death, trauma & dark humour.
