In this episode of For The Dads with Will Compton, hosts Will and Sherm dive into the importance of date nights, weekend plans (shoutout Baylor/Auburn), and swap kids’ entertainment recommendations—all while keeping it real with laughs, stories, and raw dad energy.

The episode kicks off with PT6 community shoutouts that bring both heart and humor, including:

• The nickname Willy One Shelf catching fire amongst the PT6ers.
  
  
• Sherm’s battle with gravity as he shows off the new For The Dads Oxford Pennant (and teases new merch).
  
  
• The introduction of the podcast’s newest team member.
  
  

Sherm also gets vulnerable about dad-loss as his wife heads out of town for the week, leaving him solo at home. (We’re all devastated for him, trust us).

Other highlights include:

• A can’t-miss call-in from a general contractor who just can’t catch a break.
  
  
• Sherm closing the show with a gut-wrenching Keanu Reeves monologue that leaves the boys in tears.

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.
