For The Dads is for every guy who needs a place to talk, vent, and laugh about all the insane, hilarious, and chaotic sh** (sometimes literal) that comes with being a dad. 

Hosted by Will Compton–NFL Vet, creator of Bussin' With the Boys, and proud dad of two. This show isn’t about expert advice and how fatherhood is the greatest thing on earth—it’s about embracing the love and suck of parenthood every day. From balancing work and family to battling the mental load, fears, and the moments that wreck you in the best way, we dive into it all with honesty, vulnerability, and a sense of humor. Cause at the end of the day... us dads have no idea what we're doing.

Alongside Will is his producer Sherman Young, a recently new father who’s currently deep in the trenches of Fatherhood and loving every minute of it. Together, they’ll break down everything that can go right and wrong (...usually wrong) when you bring tiny humans into this world.

Expect funny parenting stories, laughs, call-ins, advice, weekly themes, and the kind of conversations you’d have over a cold beer in the garage. Whether you’re raising teens or still Googling “how to install a car seat”, For the Dads is the ultimate podcast for dads who are in it, about to be in it, or just trying to do their best while screwing it up along the way.

This week on Bussin’ With The Boys, Will Compton and Taylor Lewan kick things off with a weekend recap. Will attended a wedding in upstate New York and Taylor regales his family trip to Disney World. Roller coasters, Tier Talk, and NO SPOILERS on ‘Chad Powers’ season finale preview.

First up on the guest list, Tampa Bay Buccaneers OT Tristan Wirfs joins the bus to talk about his ridiculous athleticism, epic combine performance, and his journey from Iowa to the NFL. He opens up about only getting two offers out of high school. Then breaks down his rookie season playing with Tom Brady, the unforgettable Antonio Brown saga, and his chemistry with Baker Mayfield. The Boys also dive into Mike Evans’ dominance, and Tristan’s first big purchase after landing his contract. From superstitions to whether he’s a left or right tackle guy, plus who he’d want to have a beer with, Tristan absolutely kills this interview!

Then, Vanderbilt head coach Clark Lea hops on to talk about managing Diego Pavia, being part of the college football coaching carousel, and what it means to coach at his alma mater. He shares insights on his relationship with recently-fired LSU coach Brian Kelly, the tough last play of the Missouri game, and prepping for a big matchup against Arch Manning and Texas. It’s a loaded episode full of football talk, hilarious stories, and pure Bussin’ energy.

Big Hugs, Tiny Kisses!

The Boys, Will Compton and Taylor Lewan, are back for another Monday football recap on Bussin’ With The Boys! This week, they’re joined by NFL legend and FOX Sports analyst Greg Olsen to break down Week 8 of the NFL season.

To wrap things up, The Boys recap an exciting Week 9 of college football, covering Alabama’s win over South Carolina, Vanderbilt and Diego Pavia proving they’re for real, Texas A&M’s victory over LSU, Michigan’s dominance against Michigan State, and Nebraska’s big win over Northwestern.

Recorded: July 25th 2024 | The Boys took on Motor City! After an exciting 2023 season, it only made sense for Will and Taylor to travel to the Detroit Lions' training camp to see what the team had in store for 2024.

Jared Goff, Amon-Ra St. Brown, and Penei Sewell broke down their thoughts on the future of the Detroit Lions, their roles in the team’s success, and how the Lions could ultimately achieve their greatest goal — a Super Bowl.

Will and Taylor, as always, asked the hard-hitting questions: “Would you cut your d*ck off for a Super Bowl?”... “What’s your biggest pet peeve about Dan Campbell?”... “Are you packing lotion in your training camp essentials bag?” Between the laughs and jokes, there were also some real, thoughtful moments. Jared Goff opened up about his emotions when he was traded to Detroit and what it felt like to face the Rams in the playoffs.

The Lions had plenty to look forward to heading into 2024, but they weren’t looking too far ahead. All three players emphasized the importance of training camp — that every rep brought them one step closer to the start of the NFL season. This one was an epic one, so enjoy!

Will Compton and Taylor Lewan are back with another episode of Bussin' With The Boys. Will kicks things off by looking back on his wild weekend with the family. The boys then jump into some Shoutout No Free Shoutout fan submitted #TierTalk and break down the latest episode of ‘Chad Powers’ starring Glen Powell.

Then the legend himself, Drew Brees, hops on The Bus to talk about his journey from being overlooked in high school to becoming one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time. He reflects on his college days at Purdue, his shoulder injury with the Los Angeles Chargers, and how everything changed when he landed on the New Orleans Saints. Drew also opens up about coaching his kids, what it’s like watching today’s young NFL quarterbacks start right away, and shares stories about working with Sean Payton, and some of the best offensive weapons he’s ever played with.

Later, Zach Baun joins the show to talk about life in Philly, what it’s like facing the New York Giants twice in three weeks, and the energy inside the Philadelphia Eagles’ building. He opens up about his mindset during a contract year, gives his thoughts on Wisconsin football, and reveals a few locker room gems from RuneScape sessions to the legend of Big Dom.

It’s one of the most packed Bussin’ episodes yet with legends, laughs, and plenty of ball talk. Tune in, grab a Bud Light, and ride with The Boys.

The Boys are back breaking down another wild weekend of football. Will Compton and Taylor Lewan recap an electric Week 7 of the NFL, where the Chiefs proved they might be the best team in football, the Eagles got back on track, the Bengals took down the Steelers, and the Rams dominated the Jaguars. They also hit on Mike Vrabel and the Patriots getting revenge on the Titans, the unbelievable Giants-Broncos finish, the 49ers continuing to roll under Kyle Shanahan, and plenty more from across the league.

Then, Notre Dame Head Coach Marcus Freeman hops on the show to talk about the Irish’s massive win over USC. Freeman discusses Notre Dame’s case as a College Football Playoff contender, his journey to becoming the head coach, and the mentality that’s driving his team this season. The Boys close things out by recapping a bizarre Week 9 in college football — Georgia’s win over Ole Miss, Alabama reminding everyone they’re still elite, Arizona State’s upset over Texas Tech, Vanderbilt handling business against LSU, and more from a weekend packed with chaos.

Big hugs, tiny kisses.
