Re-Educating Dad is a Daddy-Daughter talk show brought to you by Tony Coe (Big Tone) & Toni Coe-Brooker (Lil' Tone), your COE-hosts. Join us each week as we discuss important topics of our time from opposite ends of the generational spectrum.
Episode 34 - COVID-19 Tiers & vaccines
Grandson (and rising podcasting star) Ben Short joins Lil & Big Tone again to discuss what's happening in the UK regarding the COVID-19 pandemic.   Did the UK government do the right thing relaxing the lockdown restrictions over the Christmas Holiday?  And what about the anti-vaxxing movement?  Are they idiots, or do they have a point?  We examine these issues from 3 generational perspectives.

Episode 33 - Should the UK bring back the death penalty?
Grandson Ben joins Big & Lil Tone again this week to bring a 3rd generational perspective to this topic. In 1969, the UK Parliament abolished capital punishment in the teeth of public opinion which overwhelmingly supported the death penalty.  Over time, the public's majority opinion has dwindled to around 50% according to the latest polls.    But will Dad need Re-educating on this point by the youngsters?  Listen to the discussion and let us have your opinion.

Episode 25 - PART 2 of Netflix's "The Social Dilemma"
This week, THREE GENERATIONS are represented in the discussion about the TERRIFYING ASPECTS OF SOCIAL MEDIA! Daddy-Daughter team, Big Tone & Lil' Tone first discussed this fascinating documentary last week, in episode 24.  But the tech gremlins struck and we were beset by audio problems - Li' Tone went AWOL & Big Tone was left all alone in Podcast Land! Meanwhile Coe family continued the discussion "off-air", and it turned out there was a young member of the family who couldn't wait to get on the show and start podcasting his views about this fascinating topic. So this week, Big Tone & Lil' Tone were THRILLED to be joined by grandson, Ben who was clearly born to podcast!
