I turned a podcast about being a dad into an adventure

- THE INCONVENIENT PODCAST: This bloke Hamish Blake, who I’ve never met, emails me and says ‘come on my Podcast to talk about being a dad’. Sure, I say, but what about I film a whacky adventure on the way to the studio with my daughter so we have something to talk about? Hamish thinks this is a great idea and suggests he does the same with his kids and we meet halfway between his place and mine. Google tells me the halfway point is 345 km from each of us, which happens to be a lake, and on that lake is an island. How bloody perfect is that! Off we set to record the world’s most inconvenient podcast.

G’day folks! Hamish’s podcast is called ‘How Other Dads Dad’ and you can listen to the episode here (or anywhere you get podcasts): howotherdadsdad.com/episode/how-beau-miles-dads
Thank you Beau!
Can you pin this? Or it'll get lost mate :)
^ Pin this comment for those who don't read the description?
Just buy new boots or manage without them. Hamish is a proper townie 😊 I'm excited for them all
Love your stuff mate, this video was fantastic as a dad to 3 kids 6 and under, and will have to check out the Podcast! Please though, sort out the carseat. If you guys were in a crash that thing would be useless with the way she was clipped in.
Another classic example of Beau turning what would otherwise be a pretty simple task, into a beautiful adventure. Amazing stuff as always!
"You know what this task could use? Tripling the work and going way out of my way"
Why did I read this comment in beaus voice?
@@NoblePineapplestripling? I'd give it a little more than that.😊
@@jimmydgaf5369same 😂
And taking the kids along for the ride. Those kids are going to be such well rounded adults and that's so delightful
These kids are all so lucky to have such wonderful men as their fathers
that's what we tell them...
@@BeauMilesmate I would have loved to have a dad like you. Inspirational to me on a level I can’t explain
You beau-ty! Great stuff mate. What an adventure, I need to get out of my comfort zone more often with my kids. Much respect ✊ ❤✌️
No, really Beau! If everyone had a father like you (and a mother like Helen) the world would be a little bit more pleasant@@BeauMiles
What an adorable video. ❤
I love how Beau and Hamish are complementary opposites of eachother.
Hamish to his wife: "I'll text you on the sat-phone."
Beau, after being gone for a week, smelling of sewage: "The video should be online in a week, doll"
I am never not in awe of your work, Beau.
The stark contrast between Beau - a lifelong adventurer, and Hamish - a presumably lifelong urbanite (albeit one with very nice dry bags and duffels) - was so incredibly entertaining. I think in other Beau videos, you just get so engrossed that you forget the more common perspective that Hamish brings in this video.
Hamish would love you calling him common, he constantly gets bagged on the hamish and andy pod for "losing touch with the common man" 😂
It was beautiful to see the effort Beau put into organising such an adventure for Hamish and his kids (and the willingness from Hamish to partake).
This shared experience brings new learning and inspiration and strengthening the bonds of those involved.
Truly beautiful stuff
You should watch some of the hamish and Andy travel specials, he gets into some adventure. Plus it’s a good laugh.
Hamish definitely has the most urbanite car too lol
Yeah man! Hamish: All the gear, no idea; Beau: All the idea, no gear. They complement each other perfectly. :D
Hamish when the birds got all riled up made me chuckle😂 "Beau's close.."
Yeah. Golden line. The bugger is quick on his feet
May's little 'They're coming! How fun!' at 27:13 was just the cutest thing
I thought she said “they’re coming, help them!” Either way, extremely cute
Definitely "How fun!", and so cute! 😊
Beau, I think this just might be your masterpiece. Treehouses and kayaking expeditions and train lines are great fun, but helping another dad take his family on an adventure is an absolute zinger.
Ta mate
@@BeauMiles I became a dad in January, so this one was extra special for me. You're a legend, mate.
This could be your best video yet. How you’ve brought other people and generations into your adventures and let them access the wonders of it all is incredible, kind and life giving! You’re a gem, Beau.
100 percent!
100% agree. I've loved every video, but this brilliant for all the reasons you've said!
I'm 100% at the Hamish level of Dadness. Just winging it and praying it works out.
If there's one takeaway from this video, it's that everyone is just winging it and praying it works out, that's the beauty of life! We don't always have to know exactly what we're doing or where we're going, as long as we remember to stop, smell the roses, sing with the animal bones, and enjoy the beauty of the journey! That's what matters, that to me is how you win at life - just enjoy it, mistakes and triumphs alike. All the best, I'm sure you're doing great 😄
Trust me, ALL dads are 100% winging it. It's just that some dads like to wing it doing ridiculously random stuff outside, and some dads don't. 😂
Gold, every second.
I'm about to be a dad and that's the best I can hope for
Fast and loose baby
I really do think Gerald was what held this whole adventure together.
I used to listen to How Other Dads Dad on my morning runs, and one morning my runner's high led me to write in and insist that they have Beau Miles on in season 2. So I feel partly responsible for this absolutely beautiful adventure your two families got to have in the lead up to meeting each other. Looking forward to hearing the pod too.
This feels like a bluey episode. Absolutely wholesome and inspiring! ❤
Absolutely - its Jack's dad, in a 4x4, with a flat-battery sat(nav)-phone. And he's forgotten the (pool)hiking gear.
Hamish voices Jack's dad in Bluey so @sgreatwood has it pretty much nailed
Absolutely! And in 100% Bluey fashion, it's challenging me to be a better Dad myself. Planning a backyard adventure with the kids for the weekend as we speak!
This whole show perfectly encapsulates Bluey S03E15 Explorers!
Maynard: OK, so you just keep following that road and you're there. Whoo!
Jack's Dad: Great. How long will that take?
Maynard: Ah, ages.
Jack's Dad: Oh, man! Isn't there a quicker way?
Maynard: Well, there IS a shortcut, but...
Jack's Dad: But what?
Maynard: Well, it's a bit of a bush road, and you look like a bit of a...
Jack's Dad: Go on.
Maynard: ...a city fella.
Jack's Dad: Look, mate, just show me the shortcut.
Maynard: OK! There's an old dirt road just here.
Lulu: Dad doesn't like the car to get dirty.
Jack's Dad: Lulu!
Maynard: Oh, you're going to get dirty.
I am 39 years old and only since Beau have I truly realized (about 5 years ago), that inconvenient, difficult or time-consuming are the most important things in life. As you can tell by today's society, when things get easy, we don't grow. On a sidenote, you usually have a lot more fun, when it was hard to get to the finishing line. Much love from Canada!
Well said
@@Br-sy9vi thank you kindly
Society. Bottom text.
How does beau not have the most subscribers he doesn't just pump out mediocre content he creates captivating stories
I know...what's going on!
It's the beard...
Wish UA-cam would promote him more! Great videos
"The convenience remains low" had me laughing hard!!
As a fellow UA-camr, not quite in the same niche as you, i was in awe of the new video on your channel. It really was next level editing, and to show the story of getting to the podcast from both sides, it really was next level. I had a smile on my face the entire 28 minutes. Watching from the other side of the world also made me miss home jsut that little bit more. Thanks Blake, Hamish and kids.
Ta matey
Love how kids just go along with what ever you’re up to like it’s the most natural thing in the world. They put a lot of trust in their parents.
Hamish's son is gonna grow up to be a good man, helping his dad without a second thought hahaha. Good lad and a good dad.
I am not an aussie yet consume both Hamish and Andy and Beau Miles content voraciously, what a powerfully positive crossover, love it! Fast and loose brethren
Oh this was made to happen. Goodonya Snave
Same here! I was so excited to see Hamish pop up on this channel
I made a conscious decision many years ago not to have kids. Honestly Beau, you’re the first person to ever make me question that decision. What an amazing Dad you are and what a wonderful guide to this world and it’s possibilities you are to your kids. ❤
This is exactly how I feel right now too! I decided not to have kids, but this is really making me think again. What an absolute gem of a dad!
Why do the people who should not breed do it with such gusto and people like yourself making carefully considered decisions don’t? This is a phenomenon I’d like explored thanks universe.
As a person with only 1 kid, I can totally recommend it. I often think my friends with two or more seem swamped, but 1 kid brings the magic, but not the drama.
I know someone who chose not to have kids (overpopulation), but also chose to be present in the lives of kids around them.
Some places have buddy programs for kids who don't have dads, so they can have a good male role model in their life.
Or just be present and helpful to parents around you. Offer to carry the heavy pack and accompany them on their next adventure.
Beautiful sentiment. remember tho, us kid-free folks can still be the exciting pal that takes our friends kids out on adventures. Or even work with kids & bring the fun, joy, adventure that way :-)
What an epic concept and video, solid stuff per usual Beau
Hamish's face when he picked up the lovely paddle...the kids when they opened the box marked "veg". Classic, unscripted moments.
How good's Sonny for helping Ham push the trolley up the hill. Good on ya, Sonny!
As a dad with a daughter who is now grown and out adventuring on her own, I just absolutely loved this. The memories those kids will keep for the rest of their lives, thanks for sharing your adventures Beau.
Never would I even assume Beau would make a video with Hamish!
27:33 Caling Hamish Big love was such a wholesome greeting. All the while it looks like Beau is almost talking to himself
2 of my favourite dads coming together for an adventure, sooooo good!
My day just got much better. Thank’s for making your videos bud
Good to see Hamish finally making some use of his camping gear!
All the north face gear, must be nice
@@lukericketts1997 must be verry nice
Very very nice
And the essential Land Rover Discovery...bahaha
Finished the video to find my face hurting slightly from grinning for 20-odd minutes straight. 😄
Thanks for sharing your 'whacky' adventure and awesome story-making and storytelling abilities!
As a young adult and someone who is flirting with the idea of having kids some day. This makes me so excited to have kids and try and be the awesome dad you are Beau!
More than anything Beau's ability to create an adventure out of something otherwise mundane is always inspiring to me.
I really wanna see the behind the scenes for this one, i can really see the effort in this story
Lots of it, indeed. Bloody hell, it was almost a week to shoot!
@@BeauMiles far out, a BTS video would be amazing and hilarious and so insightful hahahaha
I’m convinced it’s the kids who made this amazing!
I feel like it was literally yesterday that May was born and here she is setting sail and going on more adventures than most adults. Outstanding!
I really like Hamish‘s type of humor, dry while being serious. He’s a great dude!
Hats off - This film is incredibly well made, great storytelling! Favorite movie up there with ‘one mile an hour’
Beau, I'm not sure how I found these short films-was probably Junk Cabin when I was on a binge of watching carpentry videos-but I've been watching for just over a year and a half. Videos like these always have a tendency to create opportunities for introspection. I love it. Thank you, from Kansas, for giving me the opportunity to find adventures in the mundane half a world away-and to consider fatherhood at the same time.
28 minutes of quality.. two dads with their children embarking on an adventure... you can't find better on yt and in life too. Congratulations to all 5 !!!
As a fellow dad, this is fantastic!
All 5 of you kids will remember this the rest of your lives. Just brilliant!
I am sure all 7 of them had a great time!
The joy and adventure in this had me smiling the whole time.
I predict this becoming a tradition between these two families.
You're for sure one of the most unique or perhaps authentic people... really inspirational
Ive been watching & listening to both Beau and Hame for years and this video weirldy felt like two of my good mates meeting for the first time. Love it! Thanks guys for making this, weirdly one of my favourite vids yet Beau!
I'm crying at the beauty of this. What an amazing gift to give new friends and small people! the gold is in the inconvenience. Bless you 2 beautiful dads.
Your creativity is such a blessing for the soul, thanks Beau!
Beau, I finished your book today in work and came home all full of optimism before the trials of family life and now there is a new video for us as well to top it up!
Don't get me wrong, makes me feel like a failing dad but it inspires me to do more. So still all good vibes!
You got me into trail running and now committing time to do more with my kids...maybe not camping in our Scottish winter though!
All the best to all of you!
Thank you for your work, it genuinely inspires and makes us happy, curious, reflective and humble.
What a duo! More please!
One of the best things I've ever seen, had a smile ear to ear. Thank you
I've been watching this channel since the first "A mile an hour" video, and while pretty much every single one has been great, this one is just absolutely amazing. I had a smile on my face the whole time.
Thank you Beau, and keep at it.
Beau and Hamish. The collaboration that we never knew we needed.
Great stuff!
I love every part of this. Thanks Beau.
It's too easy to get yourself set on an end goal and focus on planning out all minor details so your children don't have to deal with the repercussions, that you often forget that they're just excited to be doing something with you and experiencing new things!
I could not stop smiling for the duration of the film. There is so much joy and poetry packed in this! Love what you're making Beau
This is incredible. The feelgood, encouraging, get out there and make some bloody memories is oozing out of this. Great stuff!
My kid and I had been having a rough day today, and I watched this while I wait for her at her trampolining class. A very transactional bit of parenting, as you so rightly pointed out in the podcast itself.
Thanks for what I needed to at least put myself in the right place for when she comes out of her class, and hopefully thanks from her too for the fact I'll happily and enthusiastically listen to her talk about Pokemon tonight more than I wanted to earlier.
Absolute GOLD!
My two favourite podcasters mashed together in a truly beautiful way. Thank you.
I have watched every one of your videos, and they are always such a different journey. This one takes the cake for me! What an awesome idea! You could see all the stresses and contrasts between yourself and Hamish and it was such a joy to watch. Thank you Beau as always! Love from The States!
Speechless as always. A treasure of a human being. Keep doing what you're doing Beau 👍
Finished it and went back to check something and... watched it again? So congrats Beau and team you've obviously made a pretty special video. Such a good line by Hamish "I really feel like Beau", communicating what adventure means through experiences instead of trying to capture it only in words on the podcast. Deeply clever Beau. This story's magic.
Such a wholesome and beautiful video! Edited and put together really nicely, feels like an adventure to watch. Always love your videos and filming style. Keep up the good work, cheers!
Thanks emo. Cheers to saying so
Fabulous. Thanks so much for this. Really enjoyable film.
Great film Beau....the beauty in ordinary stuff...looking up not down... wonderful
This has to be one of the most wholesome Dad videos I've ever seen; it has me sitting here so fuzzy and warm and wanting to take my children on an adventure!
Side note, Hamish seems like a proper good bloke and I'll definitely be subscribing to his podcast.
Man, I’ve seen all of your videos and this has to be one of the best! Your videos got me through some dark times during a hospital stay and you have inspired me to start a UA-cam channel to tell stories like this. Hopefully we’ll get to work together one day!
Bro, I stumbled upon this and have absolutely in love with your outlook on everything. Going through a really rough time in my life with the passing of my father and another things this has been the breath of fresh air I needed to see and hear and now planning a camping trip up to lake eildon in the next couple of weeks thanks brother
Always delighted for any video you make but no lies, this had me smiling the entire way through. Such a great story being unraveled on the backdrop of dad hood. Amazing!
As a dad to a 15yr old lad, that was an excellent film- brought a tear to my eye at the end, really good stuff.
@BeauMiles this is just absolute gold. Hamish's podcast is so wonderful on so many levels and this is the kind of collaboration that just makes the world a much nicer place. Well done to you both on your respective creative journeys, and in the way you challenge others to not just sit with the status quo.
Thanks Jade. Kudos for words. Yep, Blake is a winner. I'm yet to crack the code (of such lofty success)
Boy, the ending left me crying... Tears of empathy and Joy I think? My Life is not always the most adventurous, but you Beau surely inspire me the most! Thank you.
Great stuff! You two teaming up and the kids having such a great experience won't just be a memory for us viewers. It will be something those kids will share with their kids. The most important DAD thing to do.
Incredible storytelling, incredible cinematography, incredible people! What an amazing video!
Your daughter is sooo cute! I can just tell your good vibes rubbing off on her. Lovely video as usual 😀 Can we see the video podcast anywhere?
I think it's only audio but it's called how other dad's dad
You're an inspiration, sir! Your ability to not only see the world through the eyes of a child but to know how to enrich what you see for your child is nothing short of a superpower. Please keep doing what you're doing. You're showing us all how it should be done. Thank you!
What a wonderful adventure and work idea! Thank you for sharing with the world. God bless you and your beautiful families ❤️🙏🥰
Oh man, so good in every respect. Fabulous story with a wonderful cast. ❤
Absolutely loved this one! Seeing an average dad trying to keep with Beau never failed to be great content.
Been a subscriber and dedicated video watcher over the years to this channel and this one gave me chills. Beau you do an amazing job on your films and I'm so grateful your kiddos will get to experience their childhood in such a beautiful and natural way. Thanks for all the joy and love you spread across the internet, truly.
I wish I could like this more than once! LOVE IT!!
I loved this episode. These guys are the type of dad I want to be when that time comes.
This is so inspireing. Love this. After a ruff period in my life this just what I needed to see. You guys are incredible. Love from Sweden. Good vibes travels the world. ❤❤❤
This was absolutely fantastic, what a bloody treat. Thank you so much Beau!
This video brought a huge smile on my face,well done Beau!Lots of love from Greece!
Backatcha
Love you, Beau. Always a good day when you upload.
Just wonderful...I loved it. Thank you very much for your films, Beau.
Loved this! A bit different from the usual stories but no less perfect. And hamish seems the sort of bloke you'd like to know. And May's comment "they're coming, how fun!" just melted my heart!
Such a wholesome video, very well done and such a joy to watch as always.
I actually waited till I watched the whole video to comment. I have no desire to be a parent, never will, but your desire to keep everything interesting and worthwhile is a lesson everyone needs. Thanks again Beau. Also, put your fucking seatbelt on.
His daughter's seatbelts also are not "on" correctly.
Did you notice the canoe and packraft didn’t have a roof on😲get a grip people 💋
Thanks for this golden piece, Beau! I laughed out loud a good couple times.
Thanks Beau, a inspirational reminder to go on adventures! There’s something about adventuring that invites us as a family to be open to discoveries and sharing. You’ve inspired us to go on a little adventure today as a family, off to a lesser visited beach. Thanks again!
I feel like all your videos exist to let everyone know that you can always make up your own adventure, and here we got to see Hamish do exactly that. Well done
Having stayed in an old house of an old friend in Braemer Bay seeing this was a wonderful surprise Beau! We walked the same track! I think that's bloody awesome.
What a great video. The production value of these just keeps going up too. Waiting for the Netflix special any day now. Oh, and Beau, my daughter is 29 (recently married), my son 22...we've been "adventuring" since each was 2 years old and we still try to do an adventure of some sort once a year despite my kids dispersing across the United States. Once a dad, always a dad. Looking forward to watching more.
This is one of the best youtube vids I have seen. Being outdoors as much as possible is one of the best ways to raise kids. They may not remember the details when they are three, or five, or seven years old, but they will absorb the sense of belonging in the bush, the outback, on the water, or on a trail. As they grow up, I think it gives young people a sense of confidence that they can cope with all things and work out problems for themselves. Well done to both of the dads!
what a ripper duo! both the best ❤
This is some good content. Reminds of back in the day when TV actually had a decent show on every once in a while.
Absolutely brilliant as usual. You're an awesome dad and filmaker Beau. Big props to Hamish and his kids for taking on the challenge as well.
One of my favourite episodes to date. Good effort Beau!
This is cool your are so wholesome and wacky but enjoyable
Two of the best humans in Aus together. It’s great to see
Absolute gold, sir. This video wins the internet. Watching this made me so happy!! From the sheep bone song to the veg box…so glad you made this adventure. Outstanding, as always.
Love all your videos, but this one was special. thank you!
Beau is great. Plain and simple.
