In Episode 2 of Men at Home, Jason, Rod and Al explore the strange little realities of life after work.

Jason has started forgetting what he went into a room for, while Rod shares his daily brain-training routine — and a few thoughts about the practical challenges of getting older. Naturally, the conversation turns to the things we miss about work, including those wonderfully frustrating colleagues who expected you to solve every technical problem for them.

Then there's the challenge of filling the working day after redundancy. When LinkedIn has exhausted your patience, the job agencies want a small fortune, and Amazon starts looking suspiciously like productive research, what exactly are you supposed to do with yourself?

And finally, the big question: are smart household appliances becoming too smart? Imagine a self-aware dishwasher refusing to empty itself, a fridge reporting on your eating habits, or a biscuit jar keeping count. Welcome to the future — where even the Hobnobs are judging you.

Men at Home is a conversational podcast about redundancy, retirement, work, life at home and wondering what comes next. Two blokes and an over-serious digital anchor find the humour in everyday frustrations.

No advice. No HR department. Just honest conversations, daft observations and a bit of light relief.
