Will, nothing is going to stop you wishing that you had hugged your father that day but you absolutely, _absolutely_ did the right thing and he will have known that. You didn't _physically_ hug him, and that's all; everything that a hug communicates, you communicated to him. This situation has presented many people with some of the most difficult emotional challenges I think it's possible for human beings to face and the morality and humanity that some, like yourself, have shown in the face of them has been jaw dropping to me. It's no exaggeration to say that the fact that there are people like yourself telling stories like that when we have others 'testing their eyesight' and refusing to wear masks because they steam up their glasses has kept me from losing faith in humanity. And the way Ralf listened was terrific. Genuinely inspiring stuff from both of you. I think I've got something in my eye... :)
My dad died 17th Feb this year and I listened to this pod when it came out a few days before the funeral, waiting to pick up my suit for it. I can honestly say i balled my eyes out, but it gave me so much comfort that there are other people going through it. He was my best mate by a million miles and i will never ever forget him, but it means a lot to see some top guys talking about it. Cheers
I never leave comments but I feel I had to after this episode. This is what I love about you guys. Two genuine good mates who make me feel like I am sitting in the same room having a conversation. Always make me laugh and the stories are great. I appreciate you Will speaking openly about your father. I am sorry for your loss and it too made me tear up listening to you talk about him. I love what you guys do and I know it will grow and grow. I wish you both the best. Cheers
Christmas eve totally out the blue, my old man had an heart attack. Was in ICU until NYE and passed away. His funeral was on my birthday....................I cant believe i typing this, i found out 3 weeks before my dad passed that he was binge drinking with his pals in the club. I for the first time in my life gave him the silent treatment, i refused to speak to him ( i had no idea he was going to have a heart attack) He was a beast of a man and packed in work in the early 80s to look after me and my sister (whilst looking after my mam) My hero and kept me out of trouble. I fully understand your grief. I am a maths secondary school teacher. I say so because i say to my students.............................Tell your parents you appreciate them and give them a hug! Don`t have regrets Will, you have empowered others to have a connection with your loss and i thank you for that chief!!! Keep smiling and remember the embarrassing times. Paul Olencewicz Mr O
Lads Iv recently discovered the pod, and am binge watching/listening. Have to say this is by far my favourite episode! To hear you both talk so openly is great. Unfortunately my dad doesn’t give a monkeys about me, so it’s so lovely to listen to Will share stories about how close he and his dad was. I hope my daughters think the same of me when I’m old! Keep up the amazing work and thank you ❤️
I thoroughly enjoyed this episode, my dad is 84 and my best friend, I see him and my mum every day and dreading the day I get that phone call! Thanks lads, conversations like this are important!!!!
This was really an amazing episode, amazing courage to talk openly about this Will, you are going to be helping so many people going through grief and other things. Please continue making these!
I lost my mum 15 years ago, in September. I was 23. It was and still is one of the darkest times of my life. It still hurts as much today, as it did back then. Ive had 2 kids that she never got to meet. Its so heartwarming to hear about the bond you had with your dad. Its Ok not to be Ok!
I can’t believe that I missed this podcast and just catching up on them all now. Love both Will and Ralf especially with this episode now, it’s so good getting the message out there that it’s okay to not be okay and talk about it, male or female. Looking forward to watching the rest of the shows I missed ❤
I lost my mum and my other half has lost both his parents so I totally get how you can get into this depression and not enough people seek or receive help that they need! It makes you realise how much family and friends mean to us and to make the most of the time we have with each other!💕
This episode hit me like a ton of bricks. I recently lost my husband to cancer, he was admitted with suspected throat cancer, but by the time they found out it was that, liver and bone cancer, he lasted just 8 days.....he was a lot like you made your dad sound, always on the cusp of naughtiness, a story for every occasion and you could only ever take him somewhere twice, the 2nd being for him to apologise 🤣 I miss him like hell x
I love how these podcasts really do feel like you're down the pub with your mates talking things over, good or bad. Very touching and hopefully if there is anyone suffering with mental health issues, they will be inspired to open up after seeing this.
Will I just want to say sorry for your loss mate. I'm lucky to have my dad still with me and like you he is my hero and best friend. This podcast was one of the best it was great to see you open up and share about your dad. The storys where so funny and you made me remember so many with my dad. Its definitely a Generational thing with dad's there as hard as nails but when it came to us kids they had a loven soft side. After I watched this I got on the phone to my dad and well laughed about all the stupid little storys from years ago. So I just wanted to say thank. Stay strong and don't hold anything in talk to somebody its hard for us men but we all need to learn to let it out and let let it build up inside of us. Keep it going lads you are doing an amazing job. On a lighter noted no beer sponsors yet lol .
Hey will we have only met briefly on the set of no offence 3 (I was the bodyguard at that Cheshire mansion at the Lake scene), anyway listening to you talking about your dad struck a chord with me mate. I lost my dad to lung cancer Sept 2016, and for a good few years, the only thing that occupied my mind, was the manner in which died, and watching him deteriorate in his last months. And like you, I was in a low place, but didn't realise at the time and I didn't think the pain would ever go away. However nowadays I watch video's of him at Christmas time that I had posted on my youtube channel throughout the years, and look at pictures of him in happier time in my albums etc. I found that by doing this, it helped as the images of his last months are now being replaced with memories of our best times together, so now when I talk about him to other, it's a more pleasant experience. Dads are ace aren't they, so I hope you find a bit more peace with his memory going forward. Take care
This was very close to home for me. My dad did time when I was younger too, bit of a jack the lad.. but so many fun memories and laughs were had with him over the years. Often on mad adventures. I lost him in February 2020 (on the same day as my daughters birthday of all days) within the times of covid reports coming in thick and fast and the world around us losing it's shit!! Its still hard to think he's gone. Thank you for sharing.. like all your other videos. This is a great, loving these.
I'm playing catch up with these videos, I heard Ralph talking about them on the Chris Moyles show the other morning so came for a look. I like to do things logically so obviously started with series one! Anywho, just wanted to tip my cap to you Will, I know it was a while back now but I loved the stories you had about your Dad, he sounded like an absolute legend. Also, another chord struck with me was how life changes when you have children, I can 100% relate to this. It's like being hit by a truckload of emotions in a single moment, life is so much richer from that moment forward. Loving the podcasts also, class lads, absolute class 👏
I lost my dad last month, and it's been really tough. He was my hero and my best friend also and I miss him. And this podcast has really helped me so I will be forever grateful lads.
Love this, thank you for sharing these stories. Everyone deals with loss differently and it was refreshing to hear wills story. Love these podcasts, keep it up!
The Parent Trip show with Will and his Dad is on Vimeo, I've just found it. Looks pretty decent after 5 minutes in. Helps you put into perspective their relationship too. God love ya Will and rest in peace Bill.
Your dad sounds like he was amazing, very similar to my own dad, who I lost 5 years ago. It was great to hear about him! You did amazing talking about him! Love you n ralf keep up the great work!! Xx

Great videos guys , 👍, sounded like Will needed that chat , nice one,, my old fella died suddenly in 2012 , he was living in Thailand at the time , I never got to his funeral, we used to fish together too when I was young , that’s always a good thing to look back on 👍
We lost my brother in law very after a very short illness just after new year 2020 and then the first lockdown happened and grieving while separated from family made everything so much harder. Respect and love to anyone going through it. ❤️
My granny died the 17th March last yr and never got to say goodbye, Its so hard. Saying about Barbara made me howl though. There's one where I live also called Barbara 🤣🤣🤣
My Dad died 6 days before my 9th birthday. My best friend died in February last year, then the grief kept coming. My mother-in-law died, sister-in-law, Uncle and Grandad. It's been incredible difficult.

Ralf, you absolute legend, iv always wondered this and thought it was you but did you do an album cover for a band called Andrew W. K because the album cover for "I get wet" looks exactly like you from the two pints musical when you had long hair.

Thanks bill for will without bill there’s no will and will is obviously will because off bill Thanks will stay strong and from mancheser we are all proud off ya ✌️👍
I had my wife die in my arms on May 6th 2019 and never talked to anyone but I should have hardest time in my life ever and people saying you will be okay you will get over it no no no you will not at all Hope you feel better soon Will
I miss not hugging my Nan the last time I saw her but cause I knew it would be the last time I'd see her the emotion just overtook me so I had to leave the room. That's the thing with emotion it makes you do things you wish you hadn't you just don't think clearly.

I know this was 3 years ago but anyone seeing this in the future.... NEVER APOLOGIZE FOR SHOWING EMOTION!

Mate, I love the fact you are a lad but not afraid to show emotion. You are a voice a lot of folks need. So sorry about ya dad.
I lost my dad just over 9 years ago he was my hero my best friend & I miss him everyday. Sending ❤️ to everyone who has lost a parent
Sorry to hear about your loss you’re a strong person keep your head up

Have these episodes got mixed up I feel there in the wrong order?
Think they are mate look on the playlist on the channel I think they are uploading randomly? So the seasons are in playlists
My dad has been gone 9 years this october, still wish he was around
This group you're ambassadors for, why isn't it in your description or pinned in a comment?
Check out Michael Jackson Jam video Michael had a good laugh teaching Michael Jordon to do a few Jacko dance moves.

🙏
I miss not hugging my Nan the last time I saw her but cause I knew it would be the last time I'd see her the emotion just overtook me so I had to leave the room. That's the thing with emotion it makes you do things you wish you hadn't you just don't think clearly.
Will I can relate I got phone call 18 months ago I lost my brother my world flipped upside down in seconds
Don't apologise for the content of the video it's been a brilliant episode to see you in a different aspect
This is old. Where are the new ones ?
Really?
So when you going to go in the rovers and ask for 2 points of lager and a packet of crisps after your drug deal....
Will I’m a fucking wreck man. I couldn’t cope if I lost my pops
