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 soon-to-be dad who’s currently enjoying his last few months of uninterrupted sleep and freedom. 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.

In this episode of For The Dads, Will and Sherm share a few stories and lots of laughs about wild family vacations, intense baby changing battles, and relatable dad anecdotes. 

Will recaps his recent family vacation to Banff National Park—what was supposed to be a relaxing getaway turned into a grueling uphill battle on a hike he definitely underestimated. Sherm brings us into the early chaos of raising a newborn, including a wild (and slightly terrifying) moment on the changing table with his 4-week-old.

The boys also break down their favorite movies to watch with their kids, swap parenting wins and losses, and try to wrap their heads around the internet's latest rabbit hole: "Gooning."

It’s honest, hilarious, and filled with the kind of stories every dad (and future dad) can relate to.

Tap in, fellas. Papa Team 6, we ride.

This week’s episode of For The Dads kicks off with chaos—Will and Sherm forgot to hit record for the first 50 minutes. But the boys bounce back and dive into everything dad-related with laughs, lessons, and a little destruction.

They start by breaking down the recording mishap, then talk fan engagement and the rise of the iconic “Papa Team 6” along with other hilarious dad community nicknames. Will shares a story from the park with his daughter and how parenting shortcuts (like saying “the monsters are coming”) can backfire. Sherm opens up about his biggest dad fail yet—losing his cool, destroying his front lawn, and going full raccoon assassin... all at 1 a.m.

The episode wraps with practical dad hacks, a survival kit breakdown, listener call-ins, and a thoughtful reflection from Sahil Bloom’s Five Types of Wealth, specifically “The Magic Years” and how to cherish them.

1:54:30 - "The Glory Years"

----

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 soon-to-be dad who’s currently enjoying his last few months of uninterrupted sleep and freedom. 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.

Former NFL Linebacker (10 years) Will Compton presents a Bussin With The Boys production, For The Dads! Alongside future dad, Sherman Young, Will a father of two knows how hard the job of a father can be. Thus he created a safe space for dads to come together and talk about the insane shit that we see and deal with every day. 

In this weeks episode, we see Sherman and Will discuss the week one dad wins and losses for Sherman as he starts his journey into fatherhood. Will berates Sherm for keeping him up playing video games as he was on the night shift for Scarlett. Then, Will talks about his daughters competitive nature growing and becoming like her dad, even going as far as trying to cheat to win. Will and Sherm then talk about dad hacks, including adding protein to food for kids and singing to pass the time by late at night. The boys then listen to call-ins with the first ever international call in, hailing from Australia. To wrap up the show Will shares a lesson on the importance of showing resilience to your child. 

Buckle up, this week was a doozy… Hope You Enjoy!

This week on For The Dads, Sherman opens up about his first full week of fatherhood, sharing both the early wins and the inevitable dad fails that come with newborn life. Will doesn't let him off easy, especially after finding out Sherm kept him up late playing video games while he was supposed to be on the night shift with baby Scarlett. The conversation takes a hilarious turn as Will shares how his daughter's competitive spirit is ramping up—so much so that she’s already trying to cheat her way to victory, just like her old man.

As always, the guys drop some practical (and questionable) dad hacks, including how to sneak protein into kid meals and why singing random songs at 2 AM might just save your sanity. Later in the episode, they react to listener call-ins from fellow dads, featuring the show’s very first international call from Australia. To close things out, Will delivers a heartfelt reflection on how important it is to model resilience for your kids, especially during the tougher parenting moments.

It’s a raw, funny, and honest dive into what real-life parenting looks like. Whether you’re a new dad, a veteran parent, or just here for the laughs, this episode’s packed with relatable 

moments and dad wisdom you won't want to miss. We tried to keep it under an hour.... and we might've once again fell short of that goal. Hope you enjoy!
