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.

Speaker 1: That's great accountability, thank you, and that's good hand up postgame presser, facing the noise, not running away from it, and saying this offensive operation starts with me.

00:08:55
Speaker 3: It does.

00:08:56
Speaker 5: And this is a podcast. At the end of the day, I get comfortable. I started laughing. I feel like I'm just talking to you, but I got to remember.

00:09:04
Speaker 3: I'm right here to speakining of I. I have a few.

00:09:08
Speaker 1: There were a lot that I screenshoted, okay, and I have a few that's more on like the the serious side of things. Oh, I'll start with JJ Smith. He titled it IVF.

00:09:19
Speaker 2: Hello.

00:09:20
Speaker 1: My name is Carl and my wife's name is Ali, And we just stumbled upon the ivf's episode Will did with his wife, my wife and I. If you guys can recall on Mother's Day, we dropped a Mother's Day episode where I had my wife on bus with the boys and.

00:09:32
Speaker 2: We talked through our IVF journey.

00:09:34
Speaker 1: We were going through our second round of IVF here in a few weeks, trying for our first child as a cancer survivor, and the problem being on my end. We're going through it together. The advice they gave on that episode between the communication and not having a timeline, the whole story in general was inspirational. I think in life there are signs and stuff when you pay attention. And the fact that I came across that episode and heard what we needed to hear at the right time as a sign relating heavy on all the feelings you guys went through between the pain, shame, guilt, and helplessness that was described.

00:10:05
Speaker 2: I felt so hopeless at.

00:10:06
Speaker 1: One point, but being more open about it and seeing the situation can happen to anyone and their positive outcomes is what we needed and was bringing tears to my eyes at times. JJ, I appreciate you for being vulnerable with your boy in the DMS and sending that message.

00:10:23
Speaker 2: Yeah.

00:10:23
Speaker 1: I think IVF is something that isn't talked about a lot because it just feels what's the word I'm looking for, taboo?

00:10:30
Speaker 3: Yeah, taboo?

00:10:31
Speaker 1: Yeah, just because everybody has a different journey with pregnancy. People try over and over, you know, I have my wife and I we were very fortunate that Scottie was our first attempt with IVF and we have a lot of close friends that have tried time and time again, some still trying through their like on their fifth round.

00:10:48
Speaker 2: Yeah of it.

00:10:50
Speaker 1: But JJ, I just wanted to let you know I read that message and I really appreciated reading it. I'm glad that episode helped you guys out. And again, a big theme in that episodisode was it's not about being strong or seeming strong. It's more so about staying connected with your partner. So I'm glad you stumbled upon it. It warms my heart and fires me up. And thank you for reaching out, my friend.

00:11:14
Speaker 5: It's a great comment, hard thing to talk about, and it's cool that you're opening up on the podcast and allowing people to feel like they're having a conversation or feeling more comfortable to have a conversation about said subject.

00:11:28
Speaker 2: Yeah.

00:11:28
Speaker 3: I think it's awesome.

00:11:29
Speaker 2: Yeah, I appreciate that. My friend show, do you want to rip off? The You want to rip off? The next one?

00:11:33
Speaker 3: I got another one? Okay.

Speaker 2: Out, time out, time out. They're staying. Where are they?

00:18:30
Speaker 5: Oh, they're staying in Texas, my family. If you weren't listening last episode, we discussed that. Unfortunately, so I just went on a trip to Texas with my family. Correct, That was fortunate. The unfortunate part is my wife and my sweet baby girl Scarlet, they're saying for an additional six days until Saturday. I will be home alone. Unfortunately, house to myself, just me and the doggoes with nothing to do except until Saturday. No, I will have nothing to do except play video games if I can squeeze it in fuck, we have a group chat with all of our gooners, our video game.

00:19:15
Speaker 3: Group, and we usually like to send.

00:19:17
Speaker 5: In that Batman Jeff where he's standing on the building and the bat signals up in the air. And I sent that to True Glover, who I haven't spoken to in three years instead of True Goons group chat. Yeah, and he replied in like thirty seconds and said, Bro, what up.

00:19:39
Speaker 3: I don't know what I'm gonna follow up with.

00:19:41
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what you do. It's a you're gonna be bored, You're gonna be very lonely. Here's what I'll do for you. Okay, when I get home and I'm talk to the wife and I'm gonna really good friend of mine. He's feeling very isolated in alone.

00:20:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I need.

00:20:01
Speaker 1: To go be there for him and support him. You gotta go somewhere and leave it no sooner. That's the That's that's one thing I told him where I draw the line. I don't leave the house because I got a family to protect and a family to hang out with. But from May thirty on every night, I'm gonna support him over the headset. Yeah, it's a little place we call Discord.

00:20:21
Speaker 5: Do you think you could do that for me tonight. You do not have to do that, dude.

00:20:27
Speaker 1: I know and trust me, no part of me wants to. Yeah, because I love getting to bed early. I love being a father, I love being a husband.

00:20:35
Speaker 3: Maybe Tuckan's running a little late.

00:20:37
Speaker 1: Yeah, but to be there for my friend it would be I It would not only be an honor, but I feel like a responsibility.

00:20:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, to have your back.

00:20:47
Speaker 5: Can I tell you some even worse news of when I came in today. Taylor was even saying he would be one to do the same for me.

00:20:57
Speaker 2: It's a big ass for all the boys.

00:20:59
Speaker 3: Yeah.

00:21:01
Speaker 2: Can I ask a question? Yeah, go ahead. What was the developing story?

00:21:06
Speaker 1: Because I always thought you had the house to yourself the entire time I do it.

00:21:09
Speaker 3: Was that I texted a guy haven't talked to you in three years? That jiff?

00:21:13
Speaker 2: Oh this so the developing story has nothing to do with your family.

00:21:16
Speaker 3: No, oh god.

00:21:18
Speaker 5: I just to know how to reply to me randomly texting this guy and then him being like, oh, what's good, bro? And how do I because I don't want to be like, hey, I was trying to text my video game chat.

00:21:30
Speaker 3: Sorry.

00:21:30
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I'll figure it out for you. I think I'm gonna have to approach the wife with you know how I've been bitching about playing video games? Do you know how I hate it? Yeah, I trust me. I want to do this, but sometimes discipline is choosing what you want most over what you want. Now the hard I don't want to have to walk upstairs and play this game. Yeah, what I want most is a loving home. That was the speaker. Oh but I need to do, but I don't want to do And let's go good with the boys.

00:22:03
Speaker 5: Yeah, to throw it back to episode three, The harder choice is usually the right one to make. Dude, not to challenge you and not to throw that into your corner and add some extra pressure.

00:22:16
Speaker 1: That's what PT six has accountability. If you need to check me, you gotta check yeah, yeah, all right, we'll finish it off.

00:22:23
Speaker 2: This is a this is a serious one. Shirm.

00:22:25
Speaker 3: Oh okay, okay, Legitimately I'm locked in. I'm locked in.

00:22:33
Speaker 1: This is from Chuck It Up four. Need some support guidance from Papa Team six. My fiance is seventeen weeks pregnant and sadly she ruptured. We got a bad prognosis for our baby girl. How do I go about being supportive and strong while also being sensitive to her. I can't imagine what she's going through as she's putting some of the blame on her and her body when that couldn't be farther from the truth. Begging for guidance for a guy that's dreamed of being a girl dad, that kind of hits gosh, I hate that.

00:23:05
Speaker 3: Man, that's so hard. Yeah, I first off, thank.

00:23:11
Speaker 2: You for yeah. Yeah, I appreciate you for sharing that. Man, and.

00:23:16
Speaker 1: Bro, I would say, there are no words. My truest advice would be your presence will be better than any.

00:23:27
Speaker 2: Advice that you could give her.

00:23:29
Speaker 1: And don't minimize your own grief and your own pain to feel like you were posturing and being strong. I was saying a little bit ago that it's not necessarily about being strong, and it's about being connected. And I would say, just sit in it with her, be there for her, and just do small things because there are times like when you're a dad, like when you're the guy in the relationship.

00:23:56
Speaker 2: You feel like.

00:23:58
Speaker 1: You're kind of useless or there's nothing that you can do because your body's not the one going through it. Yes, and when you when your partner is going through something. You're in totally different mindsets. At times, you want to lead with like an optimistic quote or something that's going to make her feel strong or you're being strong for her. Yeah, And what I've learned is it's not necessarily about that. It's just it's just being in it with them and trying to do whatever small things you might be able to do, whether it's do a lot of laundry, yes, get her you know from my wife lake, you know, an ice latte, having picking up around that, like doing things that when she sees you, she's thinking like he's thinking about me, even though he might not have.

00:24:43
Speaker 2: The word yes.

00:24:46
Speaker 5: In a very vulnerable emotional state, all the little things are going to seem like really big things on the bad end of the spectrum, and to your point, on the other end of the spectrum, those little things are also going to feel like baked to those little small victories of making sure the couch and all that stuff looks really nice and pretty, doing the dishes, doing those like little things around the house. As far as that kind of support, The only advice that I would give to this guy that shared this is be accessible to your wife emotionally allow her to pour into and onto you what she is feeling and experiencing right now, make sure that you also have that person, maybe not your wife, but have your own person that you are able to do the same because you're going to be there for her. And to your point you said, like make sure you feel this and you know.

00:25:47
Speaker 1: Don't minimize like you know, yeah, yeah, men are men will put off their grief and again, you want to be a strong guy.

00:25:55
Speaker 5: And that will allow you to be there for her more if you're able to offload that stuff with somebody else maybe, uh and process that other than that, dude, just like best wishes and.

00:26:06
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sorry, dude, I'm sorry you guys.

00:26:08
Speaker 2: Are you guys went through that?

00:26:10
Speaker 3: That's hard?

00:26:12
Speaker 1: Yeah, And being vulnerable with your wife, like talking to her about your what you're feeling, your fears, your anxieties, it, uh, your openness gives her permission to lean on you.

00:26:25
Speaker 3: Yeah, if she's feeling like a little shut in. That's a really good.

00:26:28
Speaker 1: Note because sometimes so your partner wants to know, hey, how are okay? Is he going through something like does he feel this the same way I do? He sounds very stoic right now, kind of you know what I mean.

00:26:40
Speaker 5: Yes, they This leads directly into my Dad Loss with the communication stuff with Jill is a perfect example of it.

00:26:48
Speaker 2: Really, let's get into the deadline. We do.

00:26:50
Speaker 1: Got to keep it under and out. We have to keep it How to keep it tight? You gotta keep it tight, got to keep it right.

00:26:55
Speaker 3: Eight minutes, eight minutes, nothing with nothing but fifty two minutes to go, We're rolling.

00:27:01
Speaker 2: We're rolling.

00:27:02
Speaker 3: Losses of the Week, Dad, Losses of the Week.

00:27:05
Speaker 5: I texted Will about this, and I don't know how much of the details I'll share of it because I forgot to talk with Jill about me sharing.

00:27:13
Speaker 3: This on the podcast.

00:27:13
Speaker 5: I don't want to get you back in the dog I don't want to get back in the dog house. But I'll share enough to where I don't think she'll be upset at all. Oh and Chef was back there saying, hey, we can always.

00:27:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, we got to protect the fathers out there. That's a good man, that's a good man, a great man, our captain.

00:27:33
Speaker 5: Chef Dad Loss was Jill for like three days, seemed very quiet around the house and was not short or rude with me, but just like very quiet.

00:27:48
Speaker 3: And I was like, I feel like something's up with Jill, like what is going on?

00:27:53
Speaker 5: And I allowed for like a ton of opportunities of you know, asking, asking, asking.

00:27:59
Speaker 3: Is everything okay? To no avail.

00:28:03
Speaker 5: Came up to this guy, my accountability buddy at work, and I said, Hey, I know we have a really busy day. I have one serious question for you really quick. I feel like something's going on with my wife and I want to try and let her know that, like I'm here to listen if she wants to share anything.

00:28:20
Speaker 3: Will gave me some great advice of.

00:28:25
Speaker 5: Tell her if there is nothing wrong and I'm being crazy and overthinking this, you just let me know, but that I will ask you one last time because.

00:28:34
Speaker 3: I really want to know your heart. I am interested.

00:28:38
Speaker 5: And I didn't just recite the line because I was like, oh, this will get it, but it was true. I was like, I want to know what is going on? And she briefly shared that she was not feeling prioritized in this time in our life, which is totally understandable. There's a lot of stuff going on with work, there's a lot of stuff going on with Scarlett, there's a lot of stuff going on with planning this family weekend that we just had, and with all that moving pieces, there's not a whole lot of like Jill time or Jill and Sherman.

00:29:12
Speaker 3: Time, and my dad loss is I kind.

00:29:16
Speaker 5: Of screwed up on being able to like schedule that time and prioritize that time. And then we had a really great follow up text of like I gotta get something on the calendar, truly on the calendar where it's like this is priority number one. I'm I'm sorry, no, I cannot do that extra thing, or I got a jet because at this time I'm.

00:29:40
Speaker 3: Doing this with my wife like we are doing it. So that was my dad loss. So but it also turned into a dad win.

00:29:48
Speaker 2: That's good. Yeah, yeah, it's awesome.

00:29:50
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this, You're not the only one going through and not that there's been anything that's happened with my wife and I, but something like dad loss related is kind of just my own per personal losses. I'm feeling like I'm starting to feel like guilt could be creeping up just because the season is underway, and I legitimately, like I am a big believer that if you don't write it down, it won't happen. If you don't truly prioritize it. Like people talk all the time, and I'm guilty of this too, but you talk about like you know, people talk about like faith, family, career or you know, career and family and all this stuff, and it's it's nice to say, but to put into action.

00:30:37
Speaker 2: What the action usually.

00:30:38
Speaker 1: Looks like is you're so bals to the wall career wise, because you want to be really good. You want to be great at what you want to do. Like we have an awesome we have an awesome brand, not only for the dads but busting with the boys. We just did the partnership with ESPN or will be in New York every Thursday morning on Get Up, and there's.

00:30:55
Speaker 2: Just a lot of stuff coming down the pipe.

00:30:57
Speaker 1: And I just I know myself and if I I don't intentionally get something on the calendar to prioritize my wife and not only prioritize my wife, but also like prioritize time like with my girls. So where I do like a one on one with Rue, take a little scotti Joe, or take the kids so Charle can go and do something. Because she's a grinder and she's very she's awesome.

00:31:18
Speaker 2: She is a.

00:31:19
Speaker 1: Fox whole partner. Yeah, I'm telling, but I just knowing it. I know something will come up if I am not being the intentional husband and the intentional father and the whole thing and seeing how the world of family fits into the puzzle and the chaos of career. Because it's it goes, it can go to the back burners, like subconsciously, even though it's a priority for me, because you want to be so good at everything you're doing in your career.

00:31:47
Speaker 2: Like again, we do.

00:31:48
Speaker 1: It's like, we got we'll reacting the games of the weekend for Busting. We got our interview that we do with Bussing'. We got our podcast that we do with for the Dads. We got streaming that we're gonna do on Thursdays. We're gonna be on Get Up Thursday. We're gonna be doing fall toward stuff to where we go to games on the weekend, the locker room, the locker oh yes, our game, our two gamling shows, college football and NFL the locker.

00:32:08
Speaker 2: Room where we're doing fan duel picks.

00:32:10
Speaker 1: And to execute a high level on all of those shows. There's a lot of study and prep work and things I feel like I can't be out of the looper left behind, because as we get bigger, I feel like there's more audience and more expectation on being able to deliver and know what I'm talking about versus just spewing things out into the world. So even when I'm home, there's times where I feel like I got a structure, study time, and prep for the day before, and in doing all that, it gets pushed under the stack of these hypothetical papers of career, my family, and my intentionality with my wife. So that is as a dad loss and feeling you know, you're like will gave me great advice, I'm thinking I need to fucking take my own advice right now.

00:32:54
Speaker 3: We all because I do.

00:32:55
Speaker 1: It's like days can go fast, bro, and they get away from you. Yes, and if something's not on the calendar that hey, I'm intentionally thinking about this and prioritizing this, then you're going to be more in a reactive state when you are when that conversation does happen.

00:33:10
Speaker 2: Yes, it's like I want to get on the books.

00:33:12
Speaker 1: I want to get in like a cadence of you know, getting childcare for the night. My wife and I like get like getting a hotel room, we do a staycation, just have like a night to ourselves and wake up and go to a coffee shop.

00:33:22
Speaker 3: Yeah, just stuff like that.

00:33:25
Speaker 1: And it's like it's it's on the whole, you know, the quadrant of urgent, important, important, not urgent, urgent, not important, not important, not urgent. I feel like that is like it's just it's been in my mind, like the last forty eight hours since we've gotten back from Columbus that man, I've got to get on my shit.

00:33:43
Speaker 2: I do too.

00:33:44
Speaker 5: I felt that that way this entire weekend with work. Weirdly, I've been feeling that way with Jill, and then when I was like on vacation, then I was feeling.

00:33:54
Speaker 3: That way about work.

00:33:56
Speaker 5: Yeah, And so I was like, Okay, I got to make sure I'm you know, tweeting about this Baylor game and you know, taking pictures of scarlet and blah blah, I'll be doing a good job of because I was overreacting with like wanting to prioritize Jill and walk in for that and didn't want to have my phone out too much in front of her and trying to find that balance and which it was fine. I mean, Jill is not a phone nazi or anything. And she's not sitting there going like are you doing that?

00:34:22
Speaker 1: For far the dancing right, But you're you're you're conscious of I'm in my own hat, yeah exactly. And I know for me, dude, I don't know how it is for your workload and getting like chasing all these rabbits and feeling scattered.

00:34:35
Speaker 3: How do I get like that?

00:34:36
Speaker 2: I get a lot.

00:34:37
Speaker 3: I get a lot of like anxiety about it.

00:34:39
Speaker 1: Yes, And I know for me it's like Willie see Willie one chelf, take one hour at the top of the week, or take one out wherever it is, wherever you can find an hour, just to have focus time on how I'm going to prioritize the month out, the week's out, write my priorities down, whether it be busting for the dad's locker room. And then on the family side, like if I want one on one time with Roof, I want one on one time with my wife, like writing those things down and then fitting them into the puzzle, and even study time like prep time, like I know I'm gonna need this, but I don't want to casually do it at the end of the day when my wife might be thinking, hey, we can catch up and watch a show. Yes, because then I'll watch said show, won't do any prep worker study, and then I'll be, you know, scrambling before I get on said show the next day, trying to like cram and figure it out. And then my like again, I just I have to be somebody that prepares. Yeah, those who what is it those who fail to prepare prepare to fail?

00:35:40
Speaker 2: That is I am that.

00:35:43
Speaker 3: I also like doing.

00:35:45
Speaker 5: I got to do a day night with Jill on Saturday, which she did a good job of making the reservation.

00:35:52
Speaker 3: All that stuff.

00:35:53
Speaker 5: But I was like fully for it and you know, happy to you know, we're taking care of Scarlett.

00:35:59
Speaker 3: It's the first time somebody's watching Scarlett. It was my mother in law. Shout out Lisa.

00:36:03
Speaker 5: She said, I need to shout out her name whenever I bring up my mother in law, So I'll start doing that. I got you, that's on me. But she watched Scarlet and sitting in the booth with Jill, and it felt like we were dating, like before we even got engaged. Like just as like you have like two or three cocktails, you're splitting appetizers, you're splitting salads, you're splitting the entree and we're just like in the booth together, just like cuddled up, and she's getting all you know, like cozy and scooting up close to me and stuff, and I'm like, dang, dude, it's been a minute since we've done this, and that's really sad. Yeah, that's that makes me really sad because I do love Scarlet and I am so excited and like wanting to raise her and all that stuff, but like prioritizing.

00:36:57
Speaker 3: My my day one, my girl, I gotta do it more.

00:37:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then you're in those moments and you're just like you feel like.

00:37:04
Speaker 1: You just forget yes, well and to court your day one, like just being in like a like date them.

00:37:12
Speaker 2: Yes.

00:37:13
Speaker 3: Do you know what I mean it becoming a roommate?

00:37:15
Speaker 2: Yeah.

00:37:16
Speaker 5: She was like, I feel like I'm your roommate right now and I am having fun being your roommate.

00:37:21
Speaker 3: You're a good roommate. But let's go back to like dating, and you know, I'm like, I totally get it, totally get it. So it was good.

00:37:30
Speaker 5: It was a dad loss, but it was a good wake up call, especially going into this busy season of like, dude, it's about to be even more crazy with everything that's going to be going on around here that you really need to lock in.

00:37:44
Speaker 3: Yeah, and to.

00:37:45

00:40:16
Speaker 2: Yeah.

00:40:16
Speaker 1: So, although I hope you enjoyed all your games, I need you to watch tape. I need you to self scout on how we can get better at home. Incorporating that, I'm already thinking, like, Okay, if I tell you how to get out for an afternoon, and look, you can't get around the NFL's on Sunday, colleges on Saturday. The NFL industry is trying to take over basically every day of the week. Yeah, but if I'm gonna tell a wife you to get out, I need to have a game plan. I can I can keep ru at bay. With Ru, I can affect the pocket, I can stop the run. I can get her thrown outside the numbers. I can get you disrupt her at the line of scrimmage. I can do those things for Scottie. For scott Zilla, she's a different little animal. I'm looking at the little rugrats pins like, Okay, maybe you know, if I get a little pan, throw some toys in there and kind of just let her loose, so that way she's in a vicinity.

00:41:07
Speaker 2: That's one.

00:41:07
Speaker 1: It's like, what is it. You can't stop them, you can only hope to contain them.

00:41:11
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's scott Zilla.

00:41:13
Speaker 5: Yes, I was seeing those videos are rude with the harmonica just being so sweet doing her harmonica thing. I look in the background, mother in laws just hunched over scott Zilla. Scott Zilla is like on a mini bar, like trying to.

00:41:25
Speaker 3: Tear it a bar, Like, oh my god.

00:41:28
Speaker 2: That's my crackit.

00:41:28
Speaker 1: Cult one is we got this little harmonica and it is the most adorable thing ever. She hits the A one, two, three and she starts blowing in it. I'll send you the video so that way we can play it on the show. But dude, it is. It is adorable. So that one, that's when I sit there, I'm smiling. It's like I can crack a cold.

00:41:47
Speaker 2: That one.

00:41:47
Speaker 3: Also new friends at school there.

00:41:50
Speaker 1: We did like our first little like not parent teacher conference, but something with so like you meet with the teachers and kind of go over what they do in the classroom, go through a day in the life of a kid at the school. And so we got to meet a few new parents and there's this one gentleman I met, and I'll keep their names out of it.

00:42:05
Speaker 2: But they had just.

00:42:05
Speaker 3: Started that day. You made a new friend.

00:42:08
Speaker 1: I made a new friend, Oh wow, little dad friend and exchange numbers or nothing. Okay, cool, play yeah plane it cool and uh, but made friends with him. They had just started that day, moved from the Northeast. That was their day one of going to school.

00:42:21
Speaker 3: Oh wow.

00:42:22
Speaker 2: And her his daughter.

00:42:23
Speaker 3: Is in the same class, same age as Rue.

00:42:26
Speaker 1: So I go home and I'm talking to Rue about this new friend and I'm like, oh, was it her first day? And she said yeah. And I'm like, do you feel like she was nervous or scared or anything. She's like, I don't know. And I'm like, were you nervous or scared your first and she's like yeah. I was like when you see so and so tomorrow you should go be like, hi, I'm Rue and ask her to play and be friends with her and be really kind to her because I'm sure she's really nervous and scared, just like you were on the first day, and you want to make her feel welcome. And ever since then, each day she brings up this little this, uh, this toddlers there, we played together and did this and that, so they seem like their friends. So it like warms my heart that Ruth's taking the practice tape and taking it out to the game.

00:43:05
Speaker 5: This is literally we brought up Bluie before the episode. That was the episode of Blue that watched over the weekend.

00:43:12
Speaker 2: How good is Blue? Buddy?

00:43:14
Speaker 3: I was so wrong. I have the coldest take like episode one or two about Blue. I'm sorry, would you say about Blue?

00:43:19
Speaker 2: Agan?

00:43:20
Speaker 5: I said, Oh, the kids are yelling at the dad and the show. I don't know if I want my kid watching that.

00:43:24
Speaker 3: What an Elle take? Yeah, it's a what a Baylor versus auburn Elle.

00:43:31
Speaker 5: But to the point quickly, people hate what they don't understand.

00:43:35
Speaker 3: They do.

00:43:36
Speaker 2: People hate what they don't understand.

00:43:38
Speaker 5: Blue makes a new friend at the park. Guess who the friend is with at the park. Their dad blues with her dad and the dads start becoming friends as well.

00:43:48
Speaker 3: On the little part, it's a good show. It's a good show.

00:43:51
Speaker 2: It's a good show.

00:43:52
Speaker 5: I'm glad that you that you made a new friend. Is there a follow up plan? Where are you going to hang out with this guy?

00:43:57
Speaker 2: Slow play play hard to get. I like that, you know what I mean. I think next time we go over shake hands.

00:44:02
Speaker 1: Hey, my daughter was telling me this bond over our daughters being friends type angle.

00:44:07
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying, And maybe just take the blue route and just go little you know, parking out date little parts.

00:44:14
Speaker 2: Yeah.

00:44:14
Speaker 1: Matter of fact, we got to part parking out later today, so we gotta keep the show under out.

00:44:18
Speaker 3: Oh okay, gotta keep on because it's it's Labor Day. It is Labor day.

00:44:23
Speaker 2: Labor day as we record this.

00:44:24
Speaker 3: Yeah.

00:44:25
Speaker 1: Hey, and by the way, I said last week that if you guys wanted your you wanted stuff to be potentially featured on the show, to comment within those first forty eight hours.

00:44:34
Speaker 2: Thank you.

00:44:35
Speaker 1: That was It was a little stressful going through all the comments and screenshots that I have, like eight more on here that I didn't get to because I'm thinking, we don't have to. You know, we can't just sit here and talk to YouTube comments. I wish we could, I know, but thank you and Derek You've been crushing and responding to everybody in YouTube. I was checking, I was checking seeing all the replies. I see our a little for the Dad's logo, but this has been our most Last week was our most comment on episode.

00:44:58
Speaker 5: YEP, and twice sent Derek a tweet that was like, bro, this would be great to engage with, and before I said it, I didn't check to see if old Derek had seen himself and engage with it. And both times I looked like a fool because for the dads was ride under that tweet. He's already engaged.

00:45:16
Speaker 1: He's one of those teammates where you might think you're telling him something, but they've already picked up the pace to where you're like, okay, I need to pick up my shit and.

00:45:23
Speaker 3: Guess what he doesn't do oh, or he did it. He would never you thumbs up one of them.

00:45:31
Speaker 5: And then I'm looking like it said, you know two hours ago before the dad's I'm like, oh baby, big time, he's on it.

00:45:36
Speaker 7: One thing I do want to say a lot of the comments we're getting voicemails, there are some people who get a little defeated if they don't see there's on a show and feel like you guys aren't seeing them, And so I'm making it my priority, no matter if we talk it on the show or whatever it is. Comments DMS voicemails, emails, Will and Sharan do see as much as humanly possible. There's a lot of people who are like, I don't know if Sharm's going to see this, or I don't know if I will actually looks at these these two just to confirm the community care so much about you guys. Number one priority is getting those in front of you. Just so you guys know, there are people out there saying that we're getting as much in front of you two as we can.

00:46:11
Speaker 1: Let go just on Derek saying that, just again because we did all the comments at the top of the episode. Yeah, and I didn't read any that Derek and I were sitting here talking about going over butte shouting out Kylie Canter. Not sure if Shermer will to your point, not sure if Will Shermer will actually see these, but if so, thank you guys for the podcast. You've really helped my husband have a healthier mindset entering fatherhood. We're seven weeks into the trenches with baby boy, and having the pot has really helped him have a more positive outlook on those two am diaper changes with the little heart emoji, He's got me listened to each week and we both thoroughly enjoy another one from Martha Byrne from Milk Team six Milk Team six operator here, I'd like to issue a Bravo Zulu to Shrham in one show for fully indoctorating my husband into PT.

Speaker 5: I told you on that text. I was like, it was so refreshing. It was like Jill and I connecting really well. We're doing all this fun stuff back in our hometown. We're introducing Scarlett to all of our closest friends and family. We took Scarlet to the Baylor game. We made it all the way till the three minute twenty second mark when Jackson Arnold put the nail on the coffin, and I was like, all right, I gotta get my baby girl back to the hotel room because it was hot?

00:51:18
Speaker 2: Was it because she couldn't make it any more?

00:51:21
Speaker 3: Was it because the game was well? Game was.

00:51:25
Speaker 5: We were trying to be good parents and Jill was wanting to go back and she was being very sweet and Langley stay and once on that fourth and whatever it was fourth and three and they scored. I was like, okay, we can leave fair and I got one of those little bike whatever they're called.

00:51:42
Speaker 3: Shout out those dude, shout out those bike whatever they're calleds Man, you know what I'm talking about. The pedal bike. The pedal bikes, they're like the little taxi drivers.

00:51:51
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, dude, we took that, buddy, Buddy, we.

00:51:56
Speaker 5: Took that from McClean stage. Oh, I fucked up. I had a better dad loss, or not a better dad loss, but I had another dad loss. But anyway, Scarlett was my crackericle one. She killed it at the football game, she killed it at the wedding. She killed it on the flight.

00:52:16
Speaker 1: She hit the bottle on the way up the ascension, hit the bottle right before takeoff, and she literally home. That's for their ears. By the way, any new dad's coming into beat six.

00:52:26
Speaker 3: That is for their ears.

00:52:27
Speaker 2: It's for their ears.

00:52:28
Speaker 1: Don't pop feeding the pop in the bottle as you're taking off.

00:52:32
Speaker 5: I'm like super on the day I didn't, I like, hardly slept before the Baylor game was truly butterflies. You would have thought that I was playing in the game.

00:52:41
Speaker 2: Oh, I know what you're saying, bro.

00:52:43
Speaker 1: I was like, going into Husker Sinsey, I was like, I have nothing to do with this game, but these eighteen to twenty two year olds, I feel so emotionally invested that I felt like I was playing, that I felt like I had a thirty play third down call she where I had to go over every check. Yes, what if we go to empty? What if they motioned it empty? What if they go from empty and back in? Are we getting back to the original call? All these things going to my head? Are am I going to get exposed today? That I felt on game day as a pro and in college, I felt that on.

00:53:16
Speaker 3: Just us playing the Cincinnati Bearcat.

00:53:18
Speaker 2: So I feel you, my.

00:53:18
Speaker 3: Friend couldn't just felt Yeah?

00:53:22
Speaker 1: And on the way to the stadium for the game, I started to get tired. And that is exactly how I would operate like even on game days for myself, is you're just amp. You're trying to do all these things, my little game day routine, study, habits everything, and then we're taking the team bus over and for whatever reason, I feel like a little sleepy. I feel like it was like a big nerves thing.

00:53:42
Speaker 3: Yes, I had to go to Dutch Bros. Shout out Dutch Bros.

00:53:45
Speaker 5: Yeah, and get a little Ice Americana with two espresso shots right before the game. Yes, because I also was feeling tired for no reason, because my heart was doing this the entire y.

00:53:55
Speaker 1: This is it.

00:53:56
Speaker 3: I'm trying to rest Jill. I'm trying to get the thing on Scarlet.

00:54:01
Speaker 5: We have like this black we bought a black one for the blackout, uh whatever, the little chess mount and I'm trying to rush it.

00:54:09
Speaker 3: Jill's like, you're you're gonna hurt her leg. You're rushing. You're frustrated, You're trying to get to the game. You're not taking your time and being sweet to Scarlet.

00:54:17
Speaker 2: Would you say to her?

00:54:18
Speaker 3: I literally I backed. I did not say bitch. I didn't. I swallowed it.

00:54:26
Speaker 5: She's right, it doesn't matter if we're there kickoff because they don't sell beer in there, and I know Jill wants to have a good time and I want to have a good time too.

00:54:35
Speaker 3: Crickets is right here.

00:54:36
Speaker 5: Off Franklin Street, one of my favorite bars back in the college days. I'm gonna go introduce Jill to that. We're gonna go get some drinks and then we'll take one of those trolley bikes. I know those trolley bikes come by crickets, and we'll take that to the game.

00:54:50
Speaker 3: Best decision I ever made.

00:54:51
Speaker 2: I love that.

00:54:52
Speaker 1: And you also reacted to what I said so quickly that new listeners might be thinking, we call our wife's bitch if they say something wrong.

00:54:58
Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, we don't, but we knew.

00:55:01
Speaker 1: Yeah no, no, I didn't call her a bit. I did not call her what you say to her, we do that thing that we always do where we call our wife a bitch. I didn't do it at that time.

00:55:10
Speaker 5: No, what I did instead, what I did said I was actually I was like nice for once, but oh dude, it was great. And we only got in like two minutes after kick. We only missed like the first drive.

00:55:24
Speaker 3: Which was fine. We scored a field goal on the first ye.

00:55:28
Speaker 5: And then my shout out really quick. You follow them on Instagram taking care of Babies. Yes, great, follow on Instagram. That's the company that redid all the mom rooms at McLean.

00:55:42
Speaker 3: Stadium, no way. Yeah, And buddy, you want to.

00:55:47
Speaker 5: Talk about the trenches? Is that mom room? Dads are allowed in it. When I walked in there, it was a true war zone.

00:55:57
Speaker 3: It was unreal.

00:55:59
Speaker 5: I'll talk and like, mom's literally like breastfeeding. I'm like walking in there, truly like eyes to the carpet because I'm not trying to see anything right right. There was some dad in there that a million percent told his wife, I ain't gonna a fucking mom room. You can go there by it, and she let him have it because he was sitting there Indian style and the mom room just rubbing her back with like.

00:56:23
Speaker 3: Wasn't even watching the TV.

00:56:24
Speaker 5: With the game on it in the thing, dude, it is truly in hell, just rubbing her back with the blankest stare, and she's just.

00:56:36
Speaker 3: I only looked for a second. I didn't see anything but breastfeeding. He was rubbing her back.

00:56:42
Speaker 5: I was like, buddy, I feel you, buddy, Buddy, I feel you. He was auburn tiger, so he had nothing to be sad.

00:56:48
Speaker 1: That's the time where you need, like, we need just something. The little pet sixpence you just throw. No, I wanted to Yeah, lifeline.

00:56:57
Speaker 2: Yeah, hey, Bud good.

00:56:59
Speaker 5: You could tell the other moms in there when dads would walk in, there was like a collective like anger building of their husbands that dad could come. Why couldn't you come?

00:57:12
Speaker 2: Yeah?

00:57:12
Speaker 5: And then I'm feeling bad for my pt sixers out there. I'm like, oh, no, they're gonna get it once she gets back, because she's gonna be like, there were six dads in there. Yeah, and guess he wasn't in there? You your fat ass, But what are you talking about? The fuck?

00:58:10
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've I've learned that the hard.

00:58:11
Speaker 5: I saw a lot of that going on this weekend, kind of hurt the heart. And then I'm so sorry I've been talking so much to wrap up the game. I wasn't gonna bring this up, but I'm gonna bring up on the pod because it actually is a funny story. I have no animosity towards Wardamn Eagle Country, and I think you guys played a fabulous game. And I love Auburn fans and I have a lot of family there Auburn Tigers.

00:58:36
Speaker 1: I'm glad you said because we have a huge audience. It's a huge audience, that's all Auburn.

00:58:41
Speaker 3: So many people.

00:58:42
Speaker 5: Hitting me up on Twitter said hey gg gs, Pat Safford, sorry we had to do it to you, Wardamn. But there were these two guys that were borderline blackout drunk and Jill and I seeds and I think it was my first time having to be a dad and step up to handle a situation, and things.

00:59:06
Speaker 3: Got dicey for a second.

00:59:09
Speaker 2: Please go on.

00:59:11
Speaker 5: So I show up to the seats and they're in our seats and it is crammed. I mean, this game is packed, and I say, hey, I'm fourteen and fifteen, where their butts are seats fourteen and fifteen. Oh yeah, Well, Mike groom forty minute, they like skewed a little bit. I'm like, okay, Bleacher, Yeah, I'm like all right, and so I don't say anything.

00:59:33
Speaker 3: Jill's not really picking up on it.

00:59:36
Speaker 5: There was a non call pass interference call that was very viral on Twitter that was in the end zone right in front of me.

00:59:43
Speaker 3: I go, what was that? Very loudly because I was upset in.

00:59:48
Speaker 5: My home turf and for the rest of the game, dude, when Baylor would mess up, this little dude on my shoulder, drunk as a skunk is bumping me and going what the hell.

01:00:00
Speaker 3: Dude, Auburn's some passive fears every.

01:00:03
Speaker 5: Play, dude, man like, well, just trying to get my head. But he's like bumping me and I'm bumping Jill, and so Jill's like, you gotta do something, like you have to say time to step up, dad, And I was like, I gotta be a fucking dad in this moment.

01:00:19
Speaker 2: Time to be a Papa Seal.

01:00:21
Speaker 5: And I slowly turned over him and I said, hey, what's your ticket for?

01:00:26
Speaker 3: Like, where are your seats? And he goes, what, dude, what? I was like, where are your seats?

01:00:31
Speaker 5: Cause we're fourteen and fifteen and you're sitting in fourteen and fifteen. They're like our cousin's in the band or cousins in the band?

01:00:39
Speaker 2: Dude, what are.

01:00:40
Speaker 3: You talking about?

01:00:40
Speaker 5: I was like, well, you're bumping into me and I'm hitting my two month old baby right there, and you're in my seats.

01:00:48
Speaker 3: I don't care.

01:00:48
Speaker 5: If you're cheering for Auburn, that is fine, and you can make fun of Baylor, that's okay. But once you start bumping me and now I'm bumping my girl and she's holding our little scarlet, and it all worked itself out, it got a little dicey. I had to stop talking because they started mouthing off. And then some Auburn fans kind of got in the mix and helped us a little bit. They were seats like twenty eight and twenty nine.

01:01:11
Speaker 3: They're like a mile away. They're in the wrong seats.

01:01:14
Speaker 2: Did they get up and go?

01:01:15
Speaker 3: Yeah, we got all figured out. They got a little dicey there. I'm sorry.

01:01:21
Speaker 5: I just talked for a very long time. You go, no, I just talked way too long.

01:01:28
Speaker 2: I'm not sitting here waiting on my turn to talk. I'm listening to your story.

01:01:31
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm thinking, I don't know if I enjoy how you just ended that story. I know like I needed to. I need to feel that your presence is actually there. See you keep bumping in me. There's gonna be a problem.

01:01:46
Speaker 3: So the girl, okay, so the girlfriend, I'll go, there's gonna be an issue right now.

01:01:51
Speaker 1: You can fill the rest of the gaps with your own imagination. I'm thinking, you know, maybe Jill said something to him.

01:01:58
Speaker 5: You just sat there, Okay, so Jill said you need to say that part that she said you need to say something. So I started it like, hey, be a man, yes, and I stepped in. But I was going with I was going, like with the smart ass thing because I'm like, buddy, you're in my fucking seat. Like I was being nice at first, but now you're just a drunk.

01:02:18
Speaker 3: Asshole in my seat. There we go, where are we doing?

01:02:21
Speaker 5: And uh, He's like, I mean our cousins in the band and we're like we're trying to watch you.

01:02:26
Speaker 3: I get it you. I think your baby's really cute. Dude, I'm sorry, blah blah blah, and I go, yeah, but all of that, you're in my seat. You're in my seat, and he's like.

Speaker 1: True Classic just launched a boys line for those boy dads out there. You can match, and honestly, it's way better than those awkward family photo outfits and cheesy pajamas. You get to show up together, feel comfortable, and actually look good doing it. The crazy thing is True Classic has already sold over twenty five million shirts to more than five million customers with over two hundred thousand and five star reviews. So I am definitely not the only dad who's figured this out. Sureman's not the only dad who has figured this out. You can find them at Amazon, Target, Select Costco, and Sam's Club locations, or just head to True Classic dot com slash for the dads, trust me, grab one and you'll thank me later.

Also a survival tip, keep an extra Roku remote. Hitting toddlers love to walk off or lose the remotes. Nothing is worse than getting the kids already asleep ready to watch a game and this then spend the next fifteen minutes looking for the remote.

01:20:43
Speaker 3: And you know what we are like that.

01:20:45
Speaker 5: The mission statements has it perfectly. We're just messing up along the way, but we're trying. Yeah, we're trying let's get to our lesson. I brought that.

01:20:53
Speaker 1: I brought out the old the Daily Dad from Ryan Holiday. To me, this is a staple that all dad should have. You don't have to sit here and agree with every page and everything that's written on here. But there is a lot of quality, a lot of good stuff. I was reading on a part last week. This is August twentieth and is titled Encourage the Dream. It's not that parents don't believe in their kids. It's that they know the world is hard. They know that the odds are long, and most of all, nobody wants harm or crushing disappointment to come to their children. That's why we discouraged them from dropping out, from trying to make it as a musician, from quitting their job to start a company.

01:21:31
Speaker 2: We're just worried.

01:21:33
Speaker 1: Will Ferrell, one of the greatest comedic actors of all time, as we've talked about, certainly challenge his parents in this way. You're going to become a sketch comedium what Even his father, a working musician, had reservations about his pursuing such an uncertain, unstable career. Thankfully he caught himself before Will came down for advice, putting his very natural, understandable worries on the back burner.

01:21:57
Speaker 2: Roy Lee Farrell led.

01:21:58
Speaker 1: With support and you know what, I think you have the skill, but it takes a lot of luck. If you don't make it, don't worry about it. You can just try something else. Roy Lee was communicating to Will from his own hard won experience, just how hard and unlikely success was in one of those much dreamed of career fields. He was saying, you're talented and I believe in you, but it's going to be really hard, so hard that if it doesn't work, you have to understand that it's just a reflection on the industry and not on you as a person. That is an incredible gift to give your children permission to try, along with permission to fail, the signal that you'll support them either way, that nothing changes based on the path they choose, the heights they reach, or the marks they fall short of. Encourage the dream. Thank you, Ryan Holiday, Daily Dad, shout out to Daily Dad. A lot of great lessons, a lot of great stuff in here. Three hundred and sixty six meditations. I know I said this in the first episode on parenting, Love and raising great kids, and that's some bangers read.

01:23:04
Speaker 2: No, I don't read at all. This is a book that sits. It doesn't happen every day.

01:23:09
Speaker 1: I'm not going to sit here and tell you I am perfect at reading this book every day. But it's a book that sits on our dining room table. Our dining table every day because we we eat dinner as a family every day that we possibly can.

01:23:24
Speaker 2: And as we're eating.

01:23:25

Speaker 5: After spending this past weekend in my hometown in Fort Worth, I realized there is something special about home and family that will never fade with age. Pulling up to my mom's house and seeing her car in the driveway, my dad in the living room window with his dog stage the Texas game is already on the screen. My parents ordered takeout from one of our favorite family restaurants that we used to take that they used to take us to as kids. I'm safe and happy and instantly feel a nap coming on as I sit down on the living room sofa. After catching up in kitchen with mom and dad. Even driving through where I grew up in Alito and seeing the old places I know and love, I find so much comfort in the memories I've made with family and friends and how those places, things, and people shaped me into the person I am today.

01:25:15
Speaker 3: I cannot wait.

01:25:17
Speaker 5: To pass along the same experience to Scarlett our little unit, finding our favorite restaurants, Her walking into her parents' home and instantly recognizing the smells, Her excited to bring friends over to share in our home experience, her seeing me waving in the living room window looking like a goofball with our family dog. I am overwhelmed with the excitement for the opportunity to build her nostalgia bank of memories. I can't wait to provide her the family slash home that my parents provided me.
