Summary

In this episode of For The Dads, hosts Will and Sherm dive into fatherhood, fall routines, and breaking generational parenting cycles—all while keeping it real with laughs, stories, and raw dad energy.

The episode kicks off with hilarious and heartfelt PT6 community shoutouts, including:

A college football equipment manager grinding while parenting a 2-week-old

A legendary Neyland Stadium meltdown moment and Chef’s official apology

Absolute “sickos in the trenches” holding it down for dads everywhere

Will opens up about a personal dad loss involving toys and laundry chaos, and Sherm debuts a new segment: "The Trenches", sharing a brutally honest 36-hour parenting stretch with his daughter. Plus, a can't-miss call-in from a shirtless lawn mower dad, and to close, Will delivers a powerful message on breaking generational cycles and moving away from pointless punishments in parenting.

🎧 Tune in for laughs, real talk, and community vibes.

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.
