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.

But he was like, this has been the funniest like moment of my life, Like you guys reposting the clip was the highlight of my week, Like look how sick.

00:04:24
Speaker 1: This is the nicest guy.

00:04:25

Speaker 3: So Ollipop had found him in this tw week because he came out and said I am oh that's where Lollipop found him, and then people underneath. And then when he posted his video and Ollipop went off, people were like, yeah, that is him. Like when I heard his voice, I envisioned that person.

He traveled over the weekend, was on the runway for a couple hours, a few hours, several hours, sick household at the Compton with the Compton family grew throwing up on us in the middle of the night. We'll get to a couple of these stories, but let's kick off with with some good vibes. Yes, I have some happy comments here from people. Steve Snyder on YouTube, Buddy, I just cracked my first classic great Volly public. It always comes back to Ollipop man. It's like the first time I heard Carrie Underwood sing on American Idol Lord all of the show boys. Grateful to spend my wednesdays with you, guys. I quit my job to pursue my business full time around four years ago. I have a six year old boy and a one year old baby girl. Every morning I get the opportunity to get them ready and drop my son off at school and take my baby girl to childcare parentheses my parents' house. That short time with them in the morning gets me so gassed from my workday. Thank you for bringing the PT six community to life. Love you guys, hashtag good shout out Steve and uh my question is Steve because I'd love to see him comment under this video is at what point does his baby girl who's won He has a son that's six years old. Yeah, at what point does your daughter become number one over the boy? Because parents like to say there's no rankings in the family. Yeah, but every night it can change. You lay your head on the you lay your head on the bill A Scottie Scotty kind of climbing the ranks on the room. Right now, Rue's been hell for your boy. She's not in the dad ass, She's in the mama. You have those most in the eight day. Next day, Rue wraps you back right around her finger. This morning, this morning she had what the bed, went in there to get her going. Yeah, she had what the bed. And I'm trying to let her know. This is a dad death special right here. Dad ad with the bet until he was fourteen years old. There's nothing wrong with this. Welcome like the fam. Yeah, but she's got her face in the pillow. She's mad at me. She wants it to be MoMA and they're not dad dads. She's seeing at me to get out of the room. My daddad stopped talking to me. I'm just trying to be like, hey, it's all good. What are pants? What your pants is cool? She's hid me all with other tiff I'm like, all right, okay, that's fine. You want to be mean the dad dad, go ahead, I'll walk out of the room. She comes downstairs, she's kind of yelling at me about getting her some milk or doing you cutting her bagel or a certain way or whatever it is. She's chirping at Dad, Dad and moms letting her know, hey, you're kind of being mean to dads. When I like, hey, look I get it. You want to be mean the dad. Dad. Just I'll tell you what I'm not getting you milk. I'm not getting you milk when you talk to dadad like that. So if you want to change your tune, go ahead, like, Daddy, kind of get some milk please, I'm make sure so I get her the milk. And you can just tell it's like going through her head like, yeah, I'm kind of getting after dad Dad. She's kind of like smiling and leaning over to me, but I'm kind of playing a little hard to get. Yeah, you're playing a little hard to get, like you're gonna have to work to get back, and Daddy's on us. But sure enough, you know, Dad taking me to school day. Oh it's not dad, it's trying to take you to school. But I'll tell you what. Ull be here when you get back from your swim lesson. And then she's like you're about to leave you Yeah, I'm about to leave. And I have a hug, kissing three squeeze and we can do it two times, I could tell that's her trying to pursue you back. Okay, I've been a little bit mean to dad, Dad, let's get back as good graces. And sure enough, you just melt the wrap around your finger. It's our way, she's the best. We're back on good terms. So going back to Steve and that question, I just have this. I have this perception that if you, if I were to have a son and you have a daughter, like knowing that I'm a girl dad right now, and how much I absolutely am obsessed with my girls, It's like if I had a boy, he would almost immediately fall down on the tone pole forever, like the daughter's number one in the family, and if not right out of the womb, it has to be the first moment she can say Dad, dad, or Dad dad, I love you, and then it's it's game over from there. So my question is, Steve, how quickly did your one year old become number one in your eyes over your boy? Would love to know that answer.

00:08:56
Speaker 2: Great question and feel the exact same way that I had Scarlet. First, I didn't I did not expect that, and I don't know what it's like to have a son. But I guess like a lot of guys go into having their first kid and they want a boy, and yeah, looking at it now, I'm like, oh my gosh, I'm so lucky at girls.

00:09:17
Speaker 1: I have a baby girl, And when we were pregnant with our second one, I'm praying that it's a boy because I'm already ready to let him know he's number two right when he comes out, whether he can understand me or not. And you're just he'll be number two forever. Yeah, knowing if it was if it was going to be a second girl, you're almost like thinking in your head, like this is gonna be tough, Like, dude, am I going to have enough? Am I going to have enough love that goes around? Because I know how obsessed I am with rue, Like, am I going to be able to have that ability with Scotty or a second daughter? You find out very quickly? Yet is that way? But you were playing all these games. I mean, I just hope it's a boy, so that way he can just know straight out of the gate, you'll be number two to your sister forever. Yeah.

00:09:54
Speaker 2: There's a great quote that I think we read on the show that was like having a son as you teaching them to be a good man and having a daughter as they are teaching you how to be a good man.

00:10:05
Speaker 1: That's a good one. We read.

00:10:07
Speaker 2: That's it from a PT sixer though, that's right, we got brain.

00:10:10
Speaker 1: Damn, I got a damage up here.

00:10:11
Speaker 4: That one.

00:10:12
Speaker 1: I've already forgotten that one just for the first time, like, oh damn, that's well. I just will you said that one from a comment Will you did?

00:10:19
Speaker 4: That?

00:10:20
Speaker 1: Was Will Compton?

00:10:21
Speaker 4: Everybody, sorry, Jeff, I got a question for you guys and PT six nation, specifically probably to the the the dads of boys out there that have multiple boys. I feel like with daughters, will you put it where it's like they get favorite child, goes day by day and whatnot. I feel your daughters it's more of maybe like oh I did something really good at school or oh you know, I've really well behaved, whereas the boys on the top of the list is probably just the person who wasn't the biggest pain of the pain in the ass for the week's.

00:10:53
Speaker 1: Way, because your daughter like it's you're on their terms, whether or not, whether or not I want to admit it, it's like I'll play these games and everything else because I'm damn, you're kind of hurt my feelings right now. But the minute she accepts me back in or she tries to play a game on.

00:11:04
Speaker 5: My yours, that's such a crazy thought just right now with how young Scarlet is.

00:11:11
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, bro, she's going to own you.

00:11:12
Speaker 3: Man.

00:11:13
Speaker 1: It's the best of all time.

00:11:15
Speaker 2: Oh I could not be more looking more forward to it. I'll get to these comments very quick. Story was like my first interaction with Scarlet where she I felt like I was being identified as data publicly, of like I handed her off to daycare workers. They go to sit down with Scarlet and she is tracking me to the daycare door the entire way and kind of has to look like WHOA hold the phone, where are you going?

00:11:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're my person, You're my person.

00:11:46
Speaker 2: At the door, I went, dad loves you, He loves you, And she had her beinkie in but she still like smiled with the passy in and I was like, oh Dad, I needed that. That was really like, it was incredible.

00:11:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, Hey, when are you gonna make his Facebook official that I'm your dad? Yeah? In front of him. You're always real quiet when I pass you off, Like, when are you going to verbally commit to letting, letting everybody else know, letting the public world know that I am your dad, You're proud of me.

00:12:13
Speaker 2: It's gonna happen. It's gonna happen, and I do need it. I uh okay. I have some fun comments as well.

00:18:55
Speaker 4: There yeah right there, Yeah.

00:19:01
Speaker 6: Oh.

00:19:01
Speaker 2: One of our favorites repeat offender Katie josen Hans Lessons of the Week hit home today. It's been a very busy season. My husband works twenty four hour shifts at the fire station. I work full time from home. We just got some help with daycare. After a year of wait lists, I am finally feeling like I can breathe again and really enjoy motherhood. That's awesome to hear, Katie. It's been tough to remember to be grateful for this life that I prayed for, but y'all always remind us to keep our heads up. I find myself saying good a lot during solo parenting days and now saying I get to do this. I don't have to thanks to dar Riek, she put several.

00:19:42
Speaker 1: Rs in there.

00:19:43
Speaker 2: Thanks for the reminder of this. Sphace is tough, bud. Short toddlers will test you, but being a parent is the best job in the world.

00:19:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, shout out her. I do the whole full time job gig and trying to balance. And then if you're on a waiting list for daycare and you're trying to figure out the kids all the time, like god, that is these waitlists are crazy. It's not a fun stress with the marriage in the household because you're like, I gotta do this, yes, then you're trying to like put yourself in their shoes. It's kind of hard to put yourself in their shoes when you're just consumed in your own work and your own things that you gotta do. It's like, dog, can we just get ahead of this and figure out what we're going to be doing with the kids.

00:20:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, I believe Jill and I only got into our daycare when we did because two couples dropped out, and it's like.

00:20:27
Speaker 1: Thank god, and we barely got in because you grind, I know, Jilly being grinds. Yeah, with a nursing and everything else. But those are long.

00:20:35
Speaker 2: Shifts, yes, but we did have a good like maternity paternity leave, like we had time to kill you know.

00:20:43
Speaker 1: But either way, even when you get back to work, like it still weighs on you at some point, especially again when the priority list of like the couple like you and wifey, like your time or your own social time, like it kind of falls to the bottom of the list because you're trying to keep your head above water on working and then the couple hours at home with the kids, and then once the kid goes down, if you get an hour maybe two hours at most, for whether it's family dinner or catching up or hanging out, trying not to be on your phone, just all the things going on externally in your life, and then once the kids go down, like you're just both so exhausted, and then those days stack up and then all of a sudden, you're just you're feeling this, uh your three restlessness. Yeah, yo, we don't do shit. We've kind of lost who are and you're kind of at each other's throat a little bit. So it's big time when you can get childcare and everything else taken off. And that feels like a weight off of her shoulders. Yes, that line stuck out to me too.

00:21:30
Speaker 2: If like I am now I can now breathe and enjoy motherhood, that's a really good feeling. Yeah, that's a good feeling, so Katie, awesome, awesome to hear. But yeah, I have some other like comments are separate, we get just dad comments and we can do laate.

00:21:46
Speaker 1: Yeah, we can hit. We can hit some of those. We can hit some of those later. I wanted to get into some storytelling, like how was your weekend?

00:21:52
Speaker 2: It?

00:21:53
Speaker 1: I saw I was following you on X Go Go Go follow the boy see if be memes.

00:22:00
Speaker 2: Right Shurm Stew underscore two okay on Twitter and instagram s Stew underscore too, Yes, sir, but I was kind of following that story where you're traveling, you're going to Texas. Yeah, yes, sir, and then you guys got stuck. We got stuck. I kind of bulleted everything down so I can do a run through and then we can just touch on whatever we want to touch on.

00:22:24
Speaker 1: Ye tell your stories and then we'll chime in whenever we have fabulous.

00:22:28
Speaker 2: Fabulous as far as travel goes. This is my worst day of travel ever, So congratulations to that we have now a top three. Just a lot of stress in general. We made it through, we survived. But let me break it down for you. Very first thing, bottle broke on the plane. Bottle broke, bottle broke, cap busted, and so water got everywhere because we had some pre made babas. Yeah, Jill packed four bottles because she's an absolute savage. She is my shout out this week. I'll get into that. So we're working with four bottles and she has three emergency ones. Essentially, Hey, we'll never need three bottles. It's an hour fifteen minute flight.

00:23:12
Speaker 1: We're good.

00:23:14
Speaker 2: Flight circles DFW for several hours because of the thunderstorms and the jets about to run out of gas, so we had to put down in Houston and sit on the tarmac for three hours. We then finally got into the gate, refieled, go back onto the tarmac, sit there first when you.

00:23:32
Speaker 1: Got to the game refueled. Are you guys getting off the plane or are you having to stay on? No d planning. So you're trapped on this plane for about five hours now for.

00:23:39
Speaker 2: About five hours now, so now we have fed again. We've gone into our second bottle and counted. We had four to begin with. One popped and exploded.

00:23:48
Speaker 1: But the emergency bar you got three backups.

00:23:51
Speaker 2: We got three backups, so we went one two. So now sorry, but we we we have one left.

00:23:58
Speaker 1: We have one left and to the DFW.

00:24:05
Speaker 2: So we refeel and we started heading to DFW, thank god, because we were we really were thinking if this takes any longer, like we're gonna either one start having to barter in trade with people on the plane because we heard some babies up in the front of the plane going ballistic like so we got a squad of.

00:24:25
Speaker 1: P six and EMT sixers in there fighting for our lives.

00:24:29
Speaker 3: Yes, Derek just would love to hear how Scarscar did during the three hours, because me as a person, I'd be like, oh, I can put a movie on, can't do that, So how is scarscard during the five hours or so?

00:24:38
Speaker 2: There I cannot like this goes into my empty six shout out, which I made it a new segment.

00:24:45
Speaker 1: Boom, there it.

00:24:46
Speaker 2: Is empty six shout out goes to Jill Young happens to be my wife, being an absolute savage and forced to be reckoned with when it comes to maternal instakes. She was finding on that plane, just bouncing scarlet, holding scarlet and shake and back and forth and singing songs and doing dances and trading her off to me. And now I'm playing I'm playing trader.

00:25:12
Speaker 1: Back to Jill.

00:25:12
Speaker 2: Let's get Mickey Mouse Clubhouse going. Now, let's get that going. Let's diaper changer. She had two blowouts on the plane. Jill's I even she's just operating. It was it truly, it kind of felt like when you're on a team you have that one like just nuclear dude that you're like, yeah, like so glad they're on my team and not on the opponent, the opposing.

00:25:35
Speaker 1: Team, Like this guy's awesome. Sure, it's the story he's told so far as right now, it seems more like the group project going on, and she's just handling the group project a million percent, because I was scared when I saw you post the one selfie and I think you had the headphones in for dramatic effect. When you're here to take it for a second, all right, go back two blowouts. Jewels doesn't even sweat. She's handle it. I'm consuming terminal List right now.

00:26:04
Speaker 2: Yeah, what honey? What is that is terminal List? Dark Wolf?

00:26:08
Speaker 1: Honey? Have you not been listening to the podcast? What are you doing?

00:26:13
Speaker 4: No?

00:26:13
Speaker 2: But she she also like really kind of owned the moment, like she hadn't seen Scarlet, uh for a while, like as far as us together, and so she's really wanting to hold Scarlet, like do the chest strap and carry her through the airport instead of doing the strollers. So she was like she was in her back. She was honestly like kind of enjoying the moment as terrible as it was, but as far as Scarlett goes, I think it sums it up great with like an older man and his wife were passing by us and he literally went, holy shit, there's a baby there the whole time.

00:26:50
Speaker 1: So she was quiet when all this is going down to the little bit she cried.

00:26:53
Speaker 2: She had one two minute spell and that was it. It's a big duve man, humongous stuff. Did you you change one of these blowouts?

00:27:01
Speaker 1: No? No, no, the couch badge, airplane blowout badge.

00:27:08
Speaker 2: I'm trying to think if I did in the airport. But now she did, and she's happy to do it. She's just like, I want to do it. Hey, can I sit on the aisle.

00:27:19
Speaker 5: Because I want to be able to like take her to the bathroom when she Yeah, that sounds great.

00:27:26
Speaker 1: Perfect for me. Say let's say, let's let me know what you need me to do. What was I going to say? Oh?

00:27:33
Speaker 2: Places we could have flown to instead of DFW over that stretch of from our house to Jill's mom's house that travel day it took a total of ten hours. We could have gone to Frankfurt that's in Germany, London, Dublin, Iceland, Amsterdam, Madrid, Barcelona, those are in Spain, could have gone to Rome, could have gone to Milan, Edinburgh, Copenhagen and Stockholm. Those are all places that we could have traveled to instead of DFW over that span of time.

00:28:10
Speaker 1: How are the parents doing? Where the kids are screaming and stuff?

00:28:14
Speaker 2: From what I could see up at the front. Some of the parents did like stand when we were in Houston and we're just kind of in the aisle.

00:28:22
Speaker 1: Jill did that a little bit, but not too much.

00:28:24
Speaker 2: Like we got up with Scarlett in Houston back like by the bathrooms, but Scarlett was like, she was really okay. She never once we got Mickey back. I mean we kind of just said screw it. On the screen time we're like Mickey Mouse Clubhouse go and Mickey Mouse is doing his thing and I'm just holding school right there and she's just with their arms stretched out, just love it. Mickey Mouse Clubhouse locked in.

00:28:54
Speaker 1: That's a hey, that's a dub man because that could have that could have got south quick, because you just never know. I've had a couple of situation, whether it's Rue when she's younger, Scotty when we were flying to or from Canada, where Scotty was having a moment, I'm like standing up in the aisle. You know, He's going back and forth while Charro is trying to keep grow whether it's drawing, doing a puzzle or something like that, keeping them engaged. But they can just decide now's not the time.

00:29:21
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, like I'm about to give you all twelve rounds Scarlett.

00:29:26
Speaker 1: I mean, Scarlett was very easy on us.

00:29:27
Speaker 2: So it ended up like all said and done, was a terrible travel day, Yes, but the part that could have sent it to nuclear proportions of Scarlett having a hard time never happened. We're going in town for a wedding and I had my suits in a garment bag and I left those in the flight attendant closet on the plane. Those are still missing. I went up to DFW's lost and found it wasn't in the lost and found it was just Also, it really was a catastrophe.

00:30:02
Speaker 1: It's always bring good well all these bad things are happening. Yeah, No, that's a hard thing to do. But I feel like since you're kind of you were doing the story on Twitter, I feel like it's almost a soft reminder, like, oh okay, I'm let be d six Now I gotta lock the fuck in.

00:30:14
Speaker 2: Yes, I definitely was trying my hardest to keep my cool. I I will not lie like there was a part of me that I was in my own mental health because we have a Black Friday video that we filmed, and I'm wanting to get that done before Black Friday and Thursday literally went jun up in flames because I was gonna edit once I like got there.

00:30:38
Speaker 1: You're trying to get it done so that way you don't have this stuff on your mind throughout the weekend while you're spending time with friends and stuff like.

00:30:43
Speaker 2: That, exactly, and get get to Jill's mom's house. The one chord that you can't forget to pack to like edit on the road, because I brought the computer my Apple Max Studio power chord.

00:30:58
Speaker 1: That is.

00:30:58
Speaker 2: So I'm just like, I'm literally just in that moment, I sat there in silence for maybe ten minutes in the guest bedroom. I was like, I just need to breathe. I just need to breathe, and just it's okay. How did the Black Friday video come out? It's not done yet? Yeah, even close, not even close.

00:31:17
Speaker 1: Lily Jobs, Yeah, the little clip you sent in the group chat was hilarious.

00:31:21
Speaker 2: Oh it's so funny and I can't wait to edit it and I can't wait, like to get my paws on it. But it sounds like Wednesday will be the day that I will just get it done, put a little pin in it.

00:31:35
Speaker 1: Yeah.

00:31:36
Speaker 2: Well, but trip was good though. Trip was good Texas. Yeah, Texas was good. The wedding was really fun. That was Jill and I's like first official night without Scarlet. Oh and like getting to go out her mom watched Scarlet.

00:31:51
Speaker 1: Are you feeling Young and Free? Young and Free?

00:31:53
Speaker 2: Had some drinks in me, some espresso, teenisy, some ranch waters. Have you ever heard of the dueling pianos? They hired dueling pianos for the reception. It was one of the best wedding receptions I've ever been to. Do you know what dueling pianos is?

00:32:10
Speaker 1: Ah, I've heard it.

00:32:12
Speaker 2: Okay, It's like a big bar scene thing where it's basically two guys that are extremely funny will like riff off of each other while they're playing covers of popular songs on pianos. Doesn't sound all that great. I think it sounds like a vibe, Okay, a couple of good ones like that. To me, sounds like a vibe where they're just keeping juice alive throughout the entire event. And here's the kicker napkins that you put your song requests, and they're doing requests all night and you're dropping the napkins on there and these guys are like standing up, you know, going nuts.

00:32:43
Speaker 1: Did you write a song on the napkin? I did Freaka League No Pablo Freaka. They did some hip hop covers. Yeah, I did bust a move by Young MC. Okay, they did not play it.

00:32:58
Speaker 2: I was not offended. I still had a really fun night. Actually got the guy's card. I got the guy's card. Why didn't he gets you out the National Tennessee.

00:33:06
Speaker 1: I said, here's the deal. You guys travel, but you're through a dueling pianos event for PT six one of our beatofs. That'd be so much fun pianos.

00:33:16
Speaker 2: Oh but yeah, that's that's the tail.

00:33:20
Speaker 1: Nude shout out parents traveling with their kids. Man, Yeah, road ain't easy. You hope it goes smooth, but it gets choppy.

00:33:27
Speaker 2: And I do want to shout out all the PT sixers that were replying to my story. A lot of people jumping in the foxhole, one of which is my dad hacked this week. Could not find his uh DM to save my life. But these are bags that you put inside of your bottle. So essentially you can fill a bottle with uh formula, breast milk, whatever, feed baby, and then you dispense that bag that was in side the bottle. So no more traveling with four bottles. You just need one bottle with the bag in there, and they sell them on Amazon. I'll send you like a screenshot and stuff chef for the Amazon product. The shout out that is like the best dad hack of all time.

00:34:19
Speaker 1: So thank you PT six, Thank you PT six, Like I went on a rant there, No, it's good you were traveling, bro. We got to hear the travel stories. Yeah, parents do it all the time. You have to, and God bless them. Yeah, sick kiddos. That's the one that that's that was my weekend, our weekend. Rue we did a sleepover on Friday night and it's where we did a pizza movie Friday movie. We watch Wicked, great movie. Great Wicked was a great movie. And Rue stays all stays all night with the sleeps over with me and Charro and Dude in the middle night four in the morning, who all of a sudden gets up and starts to projectile, vomiting all over the place on her pillow on the bed on Chorro. Dad, I made it out a lot. I survived the vomit. And then all of a sudden, Charles like I didn't think you're gonna wake up there for a second, was kind of sleeping through it for a minute and woke up. It was what's going on? What's going on? Roofstwing up everywhere. I was like, oh shit, gotta got out of the bed. Wa what do we gotta do? They were in there cleaning up. And then as they finish up, clean up, I'm letting root notes all right and everything like that, and I see a towel, so I grabbed a towel and I'm like, all right, well, you know, let's just figure something out. And I I forgot you go to lay the towel down on the chars, Like what are you? What are you doing? Were you about to? Are you just gonna lay the towel down and we're just gonna sleep it? No, No, it's a stupid idea. And I'm just thinking, we saw we've seen this before, this big daddy. Throw some newspapers on it and just keep it moving. What's so bad about that? I got the tell I'm about the layer. Let's get back in bed. Let's get it's four in the morning. It's four in the morning. We're a little tired, right Now's down? I asked myself. Am I laying on throat? No, I'm laying on a towel. So what seems like it's not even on your shot. I'd have to be the one leaning. It's a fair point, fair point. Well, we got we gotta change the sheet something and let's just move up to the guest room or something. This is one of my angest sheets. We gotta get stuff and laundry.

00:36:43
Speaker 1: You know, I got a guy burn, Like, let's just throw some towels down and get back in bed. Let's hope the smell doesn't keep us awake.

00:36:49

00:36:55

00:40:32
Speaker 5: Sorry, sorry, you you were sleep for like the first part of it.

00:40:36

00:40:39
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was asleep when apparently woke up and it was like my tummy doesn't feel good, like let's get you and then the boom, it's going everywhere, it's all getting on Charrow, it's all over the you saw the photo, if you saw the photo I posted that on actually just vomited all over everywhere. Rube puking. We got the route projectile againstcott He's okay at this point. On Saturday, then you're going to a day and night huskers get their shit pushed in by Penn State. Then on Sunday you got Scottie throwing up. Then yesterday on what day is it right now? Tuesday? On Monday, Charli wakes up. She's not feeling good. She's got like the body aches, the cold, sweats and stuff going on. No fever, but just feels like shit. Yeah, and our nanny she's pregnant right now. We don't want to get her sick. We want to figure out childcare. Well, we're trying to cram in all of our stuff here with bust and she's probably trying to fish. She's trying to figure out all of her work stuff. She feels like hell, like, how do we maneuver all this and I'm just thinking I'm a sitting duck. It's going to be me next. But right now, Dad's got a strong As of right now, Dad's got an immune system of steel.

00:41:40
Speaker 4: There's a Dad card you can play here that it's within all of us, and it's the phrase, I don't have time to get sick. My father, John Gordon Hanning, has been using that for twenty years and I've never seen him sick once in his life. Me and my little brother and my mother could be on our deathbed like a child in the medieval or with you know the whatever swine flew was there, Oh yeah, and he will go now. I don't have time to get sick, never got sick, and I've started doing it as of like last year, barring one night last year in January we had a fever and then got a quick little twenty four hour bug.

00:42:17
Speaker 1: Don't get sick. It works, hey bet six. We don't got time to get sick. We don't have time to get sick.

00:42:23
Speaker 2: Knock on wood though, and I would then say for just a bit of busting lord very quickly. This has been something that has been in the back of my head since I started working here. I don't think I've ever seen an office not get sick as much as the busting with the boys office. It's cod I know, because I honestly I'd never say that, but I think about it. I think about it all the time. I'm like, it's almost weird. Is it just because this is a fun place to work at? So if we do feel shitty, we still come in. Maybe it's because it's a little bit of a hell hole. We're kind of like forged in fire, you know what I mean, sweating it out, spread it out toxins at old times. Like maybe maybe, but I think about it a lot. It's kind of crazy. Yeah, yeah, but we are kissing up here. Yeah, Taylor, I think about him, like, we don't have a whole lot of depth. We got guys that fell in dude thing, but god forbid if somebody got bed ridden for a little bit. Yeah, there's really New Orleans with the oysters. That's like the only time that I've seen something crippling like that.

00:43:32
Speaker 1: You didn't catch You didn't catch it. New Orleans did not.

00:43:34
Speaker 2: Mitch and I did not go with y'all to the because we were editing. Yeah, we lucked out.

00:43:40
Speaker 4: I think there is something to say that like, guys, don't it feels like guys, as you get older, you don't get sick as much, but when you do get sick, it is bed like if you get sick, sick, it's death, like if you get the flu or even like if you get COVID or something. Whereas like your significant other might be like they might be sick, don't feel great, but they're up and running, you know, Whereas.

00:44:02
Speaker 1: If you catch it, it's like God forbid you catch it. You feel like you're going. I know because I feel like I have the mentality where I question everybody when they're say they're sick, because I feel like I don't get popped off and knock on wood, knocking wood, knock on wood.

00:44:15
Speaker 2: Jill that that's the one compliment that I love hearing from my wife is she was like, Truman is very tough when it comes to like being sick, Like he will rough it, yeah, and he's down and out. I'm like, Okay, he's sick. And that's coming from a nurse. It's like I see a lot of people kind of selling it. Tapping out, yeah, tapping out early. We got time to be We don't got time to belied. I guess so, so I will take that compliment.

00:44:40
Speaker 1: Yeah, I always see it to his opportunity. Like last night, I'm kind of wheeling and dealing in the kitchen getting everything clear away. You're just thinking, all right, little you know dad, time to put in some work here. Yeah, well the wife can chill a little bit. Then I think to myself, what's going to happen here at bedtime? And I know Charles like listening to this right now, she's probably maybe giggling, maybe being like, what's we're gonna say now? I'm just wondering to myself, am I gonna hit double bedtime? I'm ready to go for double bedtime, But I'm wondering if she's going to make a move to do bedtime because I remember a time where I actually had I caught COVID or something. I was sick when Rue was young, and I'm up there, I'm upstairs with the mask on, putting her to sleep. She's a part of me wondering like, what move is, wife, you're gonna make here? Because I got one in the chamber when if I hit the double bedtime duty? Or my head just want you to know, you know, no you're sick. I'm glad you're you're on the couch, you're you know, you want to take care of yourself. I do empathize with that, but I do want you to know, Willie c when I had COVID, you had me up there. I was with the mask on, putting still putting rude to sleep. That was only when we had one. Just don't want to rub that one in your face. But she showed up. It was more like I was getting Scottie ready to go to bed, because again she had been sick on Sunday, Monday or Sunday night some Monday morning. So she was sick yesterday, yeah, and so feeling better today. Okay, Yeah. She she slept real good for her Monday morning naps up like two hours, slept another two hours in the afternoon. And Charles's just like she's been tired, like you can tell, like her body is a little week right now and she's like craving kind of going to sleep and everything else. But last night she's up, you know, being Scott's zilla and then getting it ready for bed. I'm like, okay, I'll try to hit this one on the dot. Like in between the six fifty seven o'clock range, get her going in case I do need to be the guy for Rue. Because Ruth was being a sweetheart with Scottie and being nice because she didn't have to go to school yesterday because she had the bug, because it came from school, and you're not wanting to put her back in the way. It's getting passed around right now. So she got the chill. So she was in apparently the greatest of moods because she was, you know, not going to school. She's showing me everything. She drew with Chark outside in the driveway, taking me through these obstacle courses. So she was in a great mood. Yeah, but I'm kind of strategizing how this is going to go. Then Charle. Once I came out with Scottie, I see Charle was in the bedroom with Rue, just being a superhero. I'm like, all right, yeah, shed not exceeded the expectations, but I'm like, all right, didn't have to didn't have to think we got to. Yeah, we got a gamer here because I was ready to joke with her a little bit, just so you know. And I have a photo right here, Daddy, right now. He ain't a fucking mask. So or we did.

00:47:21
Speaker 2: We got back onto you were talking about the sick weekend. We got off on some subject. I wanted to make sure that was the full story.

00:47:30
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that I don't know anymore. Okay, but on Monday, wrap it up with the shout out today. Hats off to the wifey, Hats off to the you're on the other sideline, You're like, all right, good play, call right there, because I was ready to get you.

00:47:43
Speaker 2: And then you got further shots on on Monday on live television. You've been you've been taking a lot of yea, yeah, you've been taking a lot of hits.

00:47:51
Speaker 1: Yeah, sick household. George Kittle, he didn't know it, but he's taken crazy shots at me on national television. He probably wouldn't have got I'm sure he still would if he's an Iowa guy. These Iowa guys are classless. He's trying to call me classless because I'm messaging him during the day of the game. I'm just letting him know I'm coming to you as a man. Let you know that Nebraskas gonna stop a mudhole in your ass. You go, you don't even respond to me, You go on national television and call me out for all these things. He doesn't even know I got. I got sick kids and a wife at the house, and he's just out here taking shots at me. I'm trying to keep my head above water. I went to get to the Chiefs over the weekend, so when that fell through, I got all the Chief's Nation. I'm assuming Swifties as well. Yeah, coming at your boy, just taking a random straight again. On Monday night football, after George Kittle has like seven eight receptions, six seven receptions, and you know, volume was down. I was studying the games for the College Football show. I'm trying to do the for the Dad's Prep college and NFL, Like I'm stating, prepping, trying to find some fun facts all these rivalry games we have coming up this weekend. It was about ten thirty at night. I had the volume on eight, so the TV was on background. The game was over. I see Scott Van Pelton. I enjoyed me a little as VP action. Come on, they all do yeah, And I see George statline. I'm good for the boy. George. That's friend, he's a friend of the show. That's we're boys. And then all of a sudden, I just hear in the distance because again volumes at eight Scot van Pelle, I know you want to address your Nebraska friend here in a little bit, and I'm thinking, I kind of turn over. I dropped the pen and look over at the TV. It's like one of those little sas memes. Where is he talking about Mecavo? I thought, yeah, me, and so I turned the volume up to about thirty two and just sit there until the moment comes and he just destroys. He goes. He cuts a great w W promo he did. Oh, and I'm just sitting there, just taking bullets, just trying to survive, Like, all right, you gotta get through Tuesday.

00:49:37
Speaker 5: Maybe give them the opportunity to let him know that you got some sick kids at home and maybe the Dune changers.

00:49:44
Speaker 1: I had a tweet written out using the sick kids and the wife and like who people don't know what relationships? So I you know, I you put it in the dress. It's still sitting there cooking, But every buddy, I got a sick wiping kids and I'm being give puked on all weekend and you want to take cowardly shots of me on National TV platform like ESPN. Who would do such a thing. It's disgusting. Yes, yeah, you don't know how it's going to play out, so you know what, I'm having an emotional reaction right now. Let me just simmer on this. Let me have a fun little video. Cooler heads, just let him know. I'll tell you what Nebraska beats the ass is Friday. It's it's on, It's on, it's on. Well, just temping you guys at home to think about right now, driving home for Thanksgiving, Oscars win on Friday, tune in the underscore? Will we see underscore? Will Compton on social media channels.

00:50:33
Speaker 2: Yes, I I thought about texting you over this weekend, and I apologized that I did not, but I was thinking about it.

00:50:42
Speaker 1: I had a text written out because I was in it. I saw that you were in it. Look PT six. You know, we know we're all being to brothers here. Yeah, I know you're in it with me, whether or not I hear or we say it to each other. Because again I was following your stuff on social I'm not like, well, I think I did say. This is what what I sent you a text after I saw that you on the plane.

00:51:03
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you told me to hang in there, and we were going back and forth about that this is versus is.

00:51:07
Speaker 1: What creates character. Yes, it was something along those lines.

00:51:10
Speaker 2: Yeah, you were like, I mean these are the moments that molded you.

00:51:13
Speaker 1: I think is what you said. Yeah. You just know as a debt and just as a parent, when you're in the suck of traveling and you something go sideways and you're stuck in a terminal, you're sitting on the runway for about five hours. You got a little kiddo who knows if they're on their best behavior or not, or if you're in a tough time. You just know how it can test you mentally. And so it was more just giving you. I know you're having the fun tweets, but if you are thinking of something, this is where you gotta lock in. This is where you gotta lock in. You gotta be there where whenever Jill needs you. It sounds like she was game planning. She was Ben Johnson out there dialing it up.

00:51:44
Speaker 2: She will, she was, and I think I took full advantage of it. But I also think I'd like I could have done a better job. On a serious note, like I was, I was.

00:51:56
Speaker 1: Deep, deep in the depths of terminalists.

00:52:00
Speaker 2: No, not terminal lists, just just sad boy vibes. Yeah, sad boy vibes. Wind out of the sale, Wind out of the sale.

00:52:09

00:52:20
Speaker 1: Yeah, I had to reanalyze.

00:52:21
Speaker 2: This could not have happened in a better week with Thanksgiving coming up. Truly, so much to be grateful for, so much to be grateful for. I have a good conversation with Wifey of not like a re locking in, but a like just kind of opening your eyes to everything that you are grateful for, for the opportunities that you do have, et cetera.

Where you like you're like hiring your family members. Nepotism, nepotism, a little bit of people to a little bit. Who said that? Who's saying that? Yeah, Papa Win and Papa Compton, they're making it on the show. That is true.

01:11:35
Speaker 2: We've had a lot of dads. Yeah, my dad actually wrote something out he wants me in to read later. I'm kidding, I'm kidding, I did. But we do have Papa Whiton he did try and Alli Poppy and one doesn't give us a full review.

01:11:50
Speaker 6: Okay, so here it goes, Hi, this is Chip Whitton or sharm likes to say, you know chip o U E one two got to have a number there. Hey, what's the podcast? And I noticed Italians were had a sponsor from Ollipop. Now, normally I'm a Poppy drinker, but we were in the store the other day and I came upon two flavors that seemed really different. So I picked up a can of watermelon lime, which I haven't tried, and ridge rush, which I did try. And here is my explanation of a ridge rush. It is like throwing a handful of Skittles on steroids into your mouth.

01:12:38
Speaker 1: And it was good.

01:12:40
Speaker 2: It was good.

01:12:40
Speaker 6: It was very good, but it was very different, and I just wanted to give my opinion on one flavor. Thanks guys, you do a great job. Talk to you later, by Bro.

01:12:52
Speaker 5: When you said spoke to him, I just envisioned eighty dad in the world in then soda isle in low in the glasses and go, what the.

01:13:01
Speaker 1: Hell is that?

01:13:02
Speaker 2: What it's what my son been talking about? Okay, hold on here, this is that Allipop stuff. What's the ridge? What the rich that's different and just selecting it. Yeah, I'll try what a legend? So so Chip did enjoy it. It's just different. Yeah, it seems like if I could break that down, Samanna has a mature palette. Yeah, and it's uh, skittles on steroids. Doesn't seem like the most enjoyable for my personal self.

01:13:35
Speaker 1: I'm assuming he was. That's kind of his take on it too. Kids, they'd all love it. You're in your twenties, early thirties, you might like this. Yeah, it seems like maybe a little too much sugar for Papa Chip. Yeah, little too much of a sugar feeling, by the way, Ali Pop listen. I know they sponsored the show, but it's two to five grams of sugar per serving. But maybe it's just a flavor like this is. We're not gonna say the brain he's called on insane other brains, Derek, what are we doing, Baba White? And what are we doing?

01:14:03
Speaker 3: He picked two flavors too that we have never tried and or discussed.

01:14:09
Speaker 1: You've never heard of those flavors. That's were different. They were different.

01:14:12
Speaker 3: And I spoke to him, I said, well, what about the other flavors that we do talk about in love. He's like, I'll get to those, but those were his flavors. And I don't know why he picked the flavor ridge rush, but I'm excited to go home for Thanksgiving and raid the fridge.

01:14:24
Speaker 1: And try it to get the ridge rushed.

01:14:26
Speaker 2: Two things very quickly by I could just envision showing my dad Mobamba or what's that other song that Nebraska Prilla Scrilla, and him just saying, hey, that's different.

01:14:40
Speaker 1: You know what that was? What the kids is to do? Oh that's a little different, Okay we did?

01:14:47
Speaker 3: Was he shopping on his own? Ild shop on his own so he can, but they do it together very much so. But there's also times where, like my dad's favorite time in the world was when him and my mom would go to Trader Joe's during COVID Because during COVID, Trader Joe's only let like ten people in the store, so the line went around, so my mom waited in the car, my dad went stood in line, annoyed everyone around him to become friends with him, and then walked around the store with these people to shop.

01:15:14
Speaker 1: And it was like he made new friends every fucking weekend.

01:15:17
Speaker 3: It's he's that type of guy who makes like I make friends with a brick wall because I learned from him. So he loves shopping because there's so many people who are strangers that he just hasn't met yet.

01:15:27
Speaker 1: That is all time man. That's a that's a dad. Yeah, that's it. That's a good while man. He can't go shopping on his own. He'd get lost in the store. And I'm not shitting you. This is a man who's got lost in our own hometown because he took a wrong turn and went to like a hotel parking lot.

01:15:44
Speaker 2: And he's the duke. He's the Duke of BT. He's out, I get out of here. Yeah, we been you and he's a lifer.

01:15:51
Speaker 1: He grew up in that county. Oh really, yes, well went county? Is it Saint Francis County? Shout out the SEPC Saint Francis, But low's Bonterra mix up North County or high school our school system, and he grew up there. And yeah, I'm not shopting you. There's another time where we ate at Applebee's and he walked out the wrong door and they had no clue where the car was. He walked out like the to go side door, Yeah, to go side door. He went to the bathroom, went out to go the go side door. And we're sitting in the car just laughing at my old man because he he pulls out his phone next to you know, he's calling my mom old Town. Hold the phone. They just switched up everything. Yeah, when the where'd the highway go? Where's it?

01:16:37
Speaker 2: Did you check the other side of the the Applebee's honey? No, well maybe you know, walk around over the don't I got it?

01:16:45
Speaker 1: I got it. No GPS system in my old man's head. Bro. Sometimes I'm a victim of it as well. And I'm like, oh, this where the old man's kicking in here? Yeah? Yeah, yeah? What's it called? The pharmacy? The burger spot here in Nashville. I took my parents there, like what like my first year when I was on the Titans. Parents came to visit and we went and ate at the pharmacy and walked out and my dad was taking a while. He always it's a bathroom. It's always the bathroom. He goes to the bathroom, no matter what. At the end, we'll go out and get in the car. You're like, pack a dip in. Come on, you're kind of staying. I'm like, all right, Dad, we're all ready to go. He's like, hang on a second, got to go to the bathroom, goes back in the house, you know what I mean, just always takes his time. Do let me go to the bathroom. And we were at the pharmacy and we got done. My mom and I walk out. We start walking. We're in a conversation. We're kind of walking away from the pharmacy. My dad's in the bathroom. We get up to the top of the hill. If you come out of pharmacy, take it right, and you're walking up the hill over there in East Nashville, and we started laughing, like, oh, we got away for dad. And we're like, let's just stand up here and see what happens when he comes out the door. He walks out the door and he's all walking around and he's like, well, pulls out his phone. Where'd you guys go. We're just like, look right, oh, I got you all right, yeah, I see it.

01:17:55
Speaker 2: I actually did get this from my mom earlier today. This was a twelve thirty today.

01:18:01
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what for. The Dad's changing the alley pop game right now. He really flavors to look. I'm dialed in on the couple Classic Grape, Classic Grape and Chris Apple. Those will change your life. I am excited to expand my range as im. I'm dive in some of these other flavors that people kind of shut out and mentioned cream soda. So I want to get my hands on that one.

01:18:22

Speaker 7: Of course, you know you can't have the strawberries without sugar. We were out of the right kind of sugar apparently, and I put on the wrong kind of sugar. So now I am headed back from the grocery store with the right kind of sugar to go ahead and hopefully right my wrong. We're in it, like Neil to help me and get I appreciate you'all for keeping up the support.

Sure it ain't shim. He's got seventeen week prego wife at home right now. Hey, look the wives are they're just in a different headspace. They're in a different headspace when they're pregnant. They can't control the hormones that enter their body. They can't help. They don't want to lash out at you. Yes, you just happen to be the guy who's happened to be the person right in front of him when you don't put on the right sugar, and you got to have the specific sugar.

01:19:36
Speaker 2: This call brought up to PTSD moments for me when Jill was pregnant.

01:19:41
Speaker 1: One.

01:19:42
Speaker 2: I never struggled with calling you Taylor, calling Taylor will ever, except when Jill. Late in Jill's pregnancy, I started realizing it. I was like, oh my gosh, my brain's all over the place.

01:19:53
Speaker 1: So there's that. Yeah, so Shim checked off the list, Jim Jim.

01:19:59
Speaker 2: Secondly, Jill asked me she was like eight months pregnant, she needed Krispy Cream and my errands. I was running for her. It ran long because the pet smart was closed, whatever it was. So I'm thinking I'm coming home to now an asleep Jill. And for the Peetsikos out there, made the huge mistake of saying, oh, my wife's asleep, I'll skip the Krispy Cream because she's asleep. There's no way she's awake. I come in, she is asleep. She hears me wrestling. I wake her up, and she goes.

01:20:33
Speaker 1: Krispy Kreme and I go, oh, I go, oh, honey, I thought you were going to be asleep, and she literally mm hmmmmmm.

01:20:41
Speaker 4: Go go.

01:20:43
Speaker 2: I had to go to the Christy Cream, came back to a sleeping wipe again, woke her up, gave her her warm Krispy cream, and she was so happy.

But also the upside is you do like I always enjoy. Did Charo tell you? I'll even almost ask, hey, do you need me to go get X, Y and Z, because it's like you get you get out of the house, you get a little piece and quiet, take a little trip five ten minutes, who knows, maybe twenty thirty if you're lucky. Yeah, and uh, you enjoy some You enjoy some new time. Get the frustrations off your chest. Love that he called in us the dad hotline. Use the four the Dad's hotline.

Our fireplace remote isn't working. Batteries are dead, so we need some triple A batteries. M Sunday morning. I tried, you know, pulling it. Hey, I can just go down the road and get some triple A batteries. You don't need to do that right now.

01:22:38
Speaker 2: All right then, I'm like, damn, I've felt that bad. I've felt that bad. I liked it a little, a little trippy. We got some emails as well. If we want to dive into emails.

01:22:50
Speaker 1: Do you have emails? I do have some emails. I can go first the emails. The emails I have. Christian Ward.

01:22:58
Speaker 2: He says, what's up, fella. My name is Christian Ward. I am twenty two and from Archie, Missouri, and I am emailing from somewhere in the middle of the ocean. I recently joined PT six as of October twentieth, welcoming my son Gordon into the world.

01:23:15
Speaker 1: Congratulations.

01:23:17
Speaker 2: I've been a Tier one Bustle with the Boys Listener for five years now and for the Dad's Listener from the start. I'm just writing to share my story and how you guys in PT six has helped me through some rough times. My situation is a little special, but listening to you guys has helped me out a lot. Me and my wife found out we were going to be parents in March. We were so overjoyed, but we knew our journey would be a rough one because I am currently serving in the US Navy. Thank you for your service, and I left for deployment in June. Baby's doing March. He left in June.

01:23:52
Speaker 1: I was lucky enough to be able to come home for.

01:23:54
Speaker 2: The birth, earning my couch badge, shout out, and the first month of my son's life, to support my wife and be there with my son. Knowing I was going to have to leave soon to go back out on deployment, leaving my month old son and wife was probably the hardest thing I've ever done before. The Dad's Podcast has been helping me through missing these first few months, just by hearing Will and Sherman and all other PT sixers they call in with stories of fatherhood. I still have three to four months out here away from my wife and child, but with PT six and the four the Dad's Podcast every Wednesday, I get to listen to y'all stories and picture how sweet it is going to how sweet it is going to be when I am reunited with my wife and son, thinking three to four months away from home.

01:24:42
Speaker 1: Good.

01:24:43
Speaker 2: You guys truly are the best podcasts out there, and I recommend y'all to all the dads I talk to while I'm out here experiencing the same thing as me. You guys inspire me to be great fathers like yourselves and keep kicking ass. That comes from Christian Ward Christian, thank you for your service.

01:24:59
Speaker 1: Christian, Thank you man. It's got the eyes a little glossed over, because yeah, I can. I can only imagine how hard it was to kind of like leave the fam and just you know, you're you're more so like I've never been in the position that he's in and shout out to you, thank you for your service. I'm assuming you're you get some face times or some call ins. I don't know how often you get to talk to the wife to hear about the kid getting photos. I'm sure he's like a kid in a candy store, like when he gets pictures of a little baby girl. I know I'm that way. Anytime I'm on the road and a video where photos come in about him, I'm just over there. You're just grinning and smiling. You're wanting to be back home and just be around him. But I hope he's Uh what a what a time to encourage some some writing or some thoughts like while you are away, so one day, like when your little one gets older, you're able to share with him, like how hard it was being being deployed and and uh doing your best. This is how dad, Dad was trying to communicate, communicate to you, like while I was going like with mama and everything else. Yeah, that would be. Hearts shrinks a little bit, it does.

01:26:02
Speaker 2: The only thing I thought when I first read it, Derek Hauld give me these emails before to kind of go through was just the kind of not the sour grape attitude that I was having over the weekend, but just kind of like the general like last month's been like really difficult, but reading situations like that of like, man, this guy is serving for our country and is even with his wife and kid, and he's still there sitting there saying good and like writing in and counting down the days. And I'm like, man, who am I to like sit here and think that my situation may be difficult or I don't know it. It was a really good reminder to like stay the course.

01:26:48
Speaker 1: Yes, the way that happens too.

01:26:50
Speaker 3: And this is not like a dunker that dude would kill for five hours on a tarmac with his wife. Oh and it's not any or anything. No, when you think of those types of it's really crazy. I mean I need to too. But this dude like just saying that our POD's helping him with his situation. Yeah, crazy, but yeah, I'm with you on that.

01:27:09
Speaker 2: No, I truly that was a who am I moment of like, man, I need to kind of my blessings way more way more.

01:27:17
Speaker 5: Yeah.

01:27:18
Speaker 1: But yeah, you have an email as well?

01:27:20
Speaker 4: I do. I do.

01:27:22
Speaker 1: This is from Jeremy Schaeffer. What's up? Boys? This is Jeremy. I'm a fireman in the Metro Atlanta area. Currently it's eight am, coming off shift and trying to hal ass home to make our twelve week ultrasound appointments to find out the gender. Early this morning, me and the crew had three separate wood fires after midnight, making it five woods fires for the shift. Been up since three am. Had to stay on the scene past the shift, or had to stay on the scene past shift change. Nothing's going smooth. Trying to get things wrapped up and cleaned up so I can leave work. I love the chaos at work, but all the fire guys know the chaos and the level of anger in the level of anger running calls after midnight, trying to bust my ass to make this nine thirty appointment. All I can think is good, which reminded me of the new episode that's up. Turned it on on the way home. Already, change the mood for your boy, Embrace the suck fellas. Love what y'all are doing and makes me excited and feel prepared for our little one coming in June. Keep up the good work. Shout out you, Jeremy. Being on the front lines and hustling, straining to make the appointment because you know how important it is with wife, you two like you guys both going through it together. You making it a priority whether or not you sit there and think about Man, I hope she's kind of thinking about my situation, or I hope she understands how much I'm busting my balls to be here. Shout out you for being able to shift that perspective. I know it's an absolute grind. It's going to constantly be a grind, but thank you for writing in. Thank you for writing in, taking time getting that off your chest. Shout out for all you do being on the front lines with the fire department. Yeah, talk about another profession.

01:28:59
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean very very humbling in like a good way of just getting to hear other people's I'll talk about in my lesson of the week. But just very thankful for the show, Very thankful that we have men like that writing into our show. That's really cool.

01:29:16
Speaker 1: Thankful, Yeah, thankful for the show, the community writing in and knowing what he's going through, but feeling like he's pulling stuff from our episode. That's a crazy Yeah, to shift his perspective. It's a constant reminder that whatever story you have going on shifting perspective. There's always going to be a story that makes you feel a certain way, like the five hours on the tarmac or whatever it is, it's going to make you feel a certain way that I need to constantly grab a holes and lean into gratitude all the time because there's so many worse situations going on than what we're all going through. Yes, and that's everybody too, Like fireman, will hear something a different story, like why am I bitching about staying past my shift? I've been up since three am when I just heard this story. My man over there even across seas like shout out service and everything else. I'm sure he's heard a story in his platoon, whatever it is that makes him feel so appreciative and give him a perspective of the work he's doing and how he's getting to do x Y and Z or man. I got to go home for a month, and this dude he's been working through he hasn't gotten to go home in years. I don't know. But there's always a story that kind of helps us with our own perspective and whatever story we think we're living, and then you hear somebody else it's like, man, I need to count my blessings a lot more, especially you know today, like people traveling home, you're going home for Thanksgiving, maybe you're thinking about that extended family member or that family member that you haven't had the best relationship with. We were hearing about it with Mitch on the bus. He was like, I just he hopes to have a better relationship with his brother. And people are kind of going through whatever conversation could come about this weekend at the dinner table and hoping that they can mind it or get closer. Maybe you feel ten toes down or digging your heels in about something you feel towards somebody else. What a moment to kind of think about why am I so bothered by everything like getting to spend time with family, getting to spend time with friends. Maybe I need to shift just a little bit to see if I can bridge whatever gap.

01:31:04
Speaker 4: It is.

01:31:04
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving is always a great reminder to kind of reflect on the year and reflect on all the things that you are thankful for.

01:31:11
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been hitting at the perfect moment for me, to be completely honest, it's it's been I'm very excited for Thanksgiving and just the idea around it.

01:31:21
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the time off yeah, and the time you got a time a couple of weeks. People getting to listen, like whether they're traveling or whatever the case may be, and just knowing like you've been grinding this year. You have like this four day weekend, or you get to watch some ball, you get to eat some food, spend time with family and friends. Maybe take a little nap. Ye, stay up a little later, watch that movie, watch that TV show, have a couple of drinks. I have a couple of drinks. Go watch the balls beat the shit out Andy. Go watch the walls beat the shit out of and Andy Nago, Bobby. Let's see if you can walk into kneeling and dig down the voladius talking real loud on the bus. See you talk like that at Knoxville. I am very excited for that game though. That'll be a fun I'm glad. I'm going. Yes, that'll be a fun game.

01:32:17
Speaker 2: I got one more email, h and do you have one more? I do not, Okay, I can do this last one and then we can go into Lesson of the Week.

01:32:27
Speaker 1: Got less of the Week before Lesson of the Week. Though we did the pole last week on Best Way PT.

01:32:32
Speaker 2: Six best way to cook a turkey pole yice, So hit the email, we'll do some turkey talk, we'll do something.

01:32:37
Speaker 1: We'll end it with a lesson.

01:32:39
Speaker 2: This one is anonymous. Hey Sherman Will, I'm a girl in my mid twenties and definitely not your typical demographic, but I wanted to reach out and let both of you know just how far your influence reaches. I found for the Dads about a month ago and quickly binged every episode. To say that you guys made a difference in my life is an understatement. I know it sounds cheesy, but y'all help me regain confidence that there are great men out there who want to be present, intentional dads and partners. I've dealt with abuse and past relationships, and have come from a background where masculinity and fatherhood were approached dot dot dot differently, but hearing you two be so intentional, honest, and vulnerable has blown me away. Y'all hold a gentleness and strength together. Y'all hold gentleness and strength together instead of treating them like opposites. You show that real masculinity includes presence, care, and the willingness to grow. That husbands and dads can be soft and loving and still be the man of the house. You're showing everyone, every young woman what good men look like. I also just listen to the most recent episode of Busting with the Boys with Robert Gallery and it was another fantastic conversation. Just like every Busting episode and every four of the Dad's episode, y'all are helping everyone who watches by highlighting real problems, real stories, and real emotions from a place of non judgment. And on top of everything, you always bring it back down to earth with humor, humility, honesty, and empathy. Just need to say that all of y'all at Bustin are changing.

01:34:21
Speaker 1: The world, so truly. Thank you.

01:34:23
Speaker 2: You've made more of a difference than you probably realize. Keep it up, y'all, we appreciate what you're doing. That comes from anonymous that I wanted to make sure that we read that one specifically for the bottom line of just like for everyone at Bustin, because I know that this part of the year, this like football season, the grind, it really can it can weigh on you, and I know for listeners at home that feel the same way. But yeah, I just think that we've brought together a community of really intentional people that are also really fun and have a good sense of humor, that want to be incredible parents. And I think that's really freaking cool and just a good reminder of like just what we have an opportunity to do every week. It's really sick.

01:35:21
Speaker 1: There's one of the kindest writings I think I've gotten here being read. You say like very intentional, very fun, have humor, but also like very flawed. Like there are a lot of times where I'll be driving home wandering in my head. Man, do I share too much? Do I say too much here?

01:35:39
Speaker 5: Do I have?

01:35:39
Speaker 1: Do I take this too lightly? Do I feel like I whatever point I was trying to make? Did I bring it home? Did I say it in the right way? Like you have all these questions because we're all very imperfect, and I have all these imperfections to where the hearing that is awesome. Again, it gives a perspective and gratitude. And dude, if it's changing a few people, you feel like you're doing You're doing what you want to do, especially with a brand like this, a show like this, a show like busting Yeah, but speaking for just speaking on the for the Dad's front, like, that's all we want to do is just know that like it. It's sucky a lot of times, it's great a lot of times, there's a lot of fun like things like you take it serious, you take it lightly, you communicate, you don't communicate, Like, let's talk about these flaws, let's talk about where I fell short. Let's try and feel comfortable doing it. See if there's a lesson I got from it, or something that my wife taught me or somebody else taught me, and just share everything that I feel like I'm trying to do in this journey of fatherhood because you grow up in situations, uh and I'm not saying mine was bad by any means, but you feel like as you're growing up, there's certain ways to do everything, and then you get open up and your mind gets expanded to challenging certain thoughts here with myself, or challenging certain thoughts there. If I want to be mass I kind of like this idea right here. It feels a little soft in my head because I grew up in my own opinion pridefully like a certain way, and I carry myself a certain way. But it seems like a little softer's or something that connects the dots in my head to where it's like, Okay, I'm actually on board with this idea. I see why, I see the explanation from it versus just like being narrow minded and thinking, no, I'm gonna do it this way. I don't care what so and so says. So that was really cool to listen to. Thank you to the anonymous person who wrote that in Yes, thank you very much.

01:37:27
Speaker 2: I've been told that I say this too much on the show, but it is really cool to read stuff like that. I feel very undeserving of reading stuff like that, and I think that there are a lot of dads out there that maybe feel the same way whenever they're you know, getting there, you know whatever. You're a great dad and you do a great job, and maybe they feel undeserving of it.

Mine's going into a Salt Brandon night and I'm gonna show you guys what a good turkey looks like.

Speaker 4: I will be making a video on how to cook a turkey the right way. And here's what I'll say. I've done deep fried, deefried, solid, I've done smoked. Really didn't like the smoke, but I blame the old man's casion seasoning on that.

Speaker 1: Mm hmmm.

01:41:35
Speaker 4: And also the Wednesday, the Wednesday night's seen all your friends from college? Bad combo true true. Also, uh, just a quick tip out there. I'm sure you probably have more on the smoking. Oh there was a comment right here, a post on the best way to cook turkey. This comment comes in from Taylor Southern seven nine to two Taylor Southern, Taylor Souther.

01:41:59
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, sweetheart, you see I don't know these letters had a deep fry for the first time last year. And Budy, I do not eat turkey, famously hate it, but fried is another beast. I can't get enough. And comments go on, you got pessimistic, Yes, sir, I'm sure others are great, but we have been smoking them every year since we got the smoker and have no plans of going back. Got to Brian at dry or wet too before smoking. Listen from Paul and don't forget just dispatch dispatch cock. It dispatch cock. It don't forget dispatch cock. It cuts. That's smoking time in half. It does. Big Dinos injecting a butter marinate is awesome too. Blake City Turkey Roll Chris Chris on the grill, e K, I don't like turkey. Strong opinions. We couldn't find one six community, not one talking about bake Chef. I want a.

01:43:10
Speaker 5: Clip of just out of context, will reading comments because that I don't like turkey came out of you're just reading I like turkey, all right, it's great. Oh god, that was funny. It's a good turkey talk.

01:43:31
Speaker 2: Yeah.

01:43:31
Speaker 1: I do have a follow up. Speaking of Choro, I'm just gonna go into this one. Very brave.

01:43:37
Speaker 2: This comes from yoso Erka Peach. He's from Croatia. Hey, Willie one Chef and Fat Stafford. This is Coroatian style. Multiple years of picks. The one year, four turkeys, one goose and one duck. It gives the crispy skin and smoke taste while roasting. And our friend Yoso or Joe So provided some pictures, so I'm sure we'll put on the screen as well. But it looks like he's just got charcoal like a charcoal bed or maybe even uh some wood logs and they're just doing a slow roast.

01:44:16
Speaker 1: The man right there, chef a goose, impressive and four turkeys. He I bet he dig a hole in roasted turkey. I dig a hole in roast turkey. They do it incing style. Why we get a video you and Delaney? You had on Delaney's farm.

01:44:32
Speaker 4: I did call Delaney. Delaney had stuff to do, okay, so he called you back.

01:44:37
Speaker 1: Yeah, he did. Love that he did. He caught me. I felt I felt really bad because he was on set for something and I was like, hey, man, you might if I go to your farm a hole and roasted turkey as boys are challenging me at for the dads right now. Oh my gosh.

01:44:52
Speaker 2: Yes, but that uh, that was our turkey talk. I also, what's on your plate was a question that was thrown around. H I can do really breathe what's on my plate?

01:45:03
Speaker 1: It kind of can't go wrong in a lot of ways of Thanksgiving. Like turkey, ham doesn't matter. Throw both on the plate. Yeah, stuffing corn, some type of corn dish. You got the mashed potatoes, you got the gravy. You're mixing it all together. That you just to me, in my opinion, you got some great dinner rolls. My wife makes incredible, fat, full filled with love dinner rolls. Bro Is she doing the yeast and all that? Yeah? Yeah, okay, she knocks it down, Okay, and that's that's a Thanksgiving dish. I kind of hate when people are like all Thanksgiving and food and stuff overrated, blah blah blah. One time, I love it, man, I love it. I like the feeling of waking up kind of starving yourself a little bit salivating. When's it gonna be it? I smell the turkey, I smell this and that and God, mixing it all together, getting some rolls and scooping it up in there, maybe some cranberry sauce. I've reached came around a cranberry sau It's not that I didn't like I just never really tried it. When you get it, when you get a good one, it's it's a game changer for sure, Desert. I love some dessert. I love some pecan pie.

01:46:13
Speaker 2: If it's chocolate chip pecan pie with vanilla ice cream, that's that's game over. Bro.

01:46:19
Speaker 1: Charle made this over the weekend we did a Thanksgiving at her parents because her parents are going back in the Northeast for Thanksgiving, so we did a little Thanksgiving on Sunday over at Lowland Opu's house, and Charle made this pie where it was like pecan brown sugar cookie pie where it had like chocolate chips in it.

01:46:39
Speaker 2: Dude, Oh yeah, I mean you get a scoop of vanilla ice cream with that. Yeah, Like whatever you believe in Jesus coming back the end of the world.

01:46:49
Speaker 1: Like you can take me. Yeah, I'm good. Yeah, I'm good. You've seen the light. Yeah.

01:46:54
Speaker 2: Pcm pi to me is number one. Pecom pie to me is a good peach cobb I'm very dictato pie.

01:47:02
Speaker 4: Yeah, chocolate, it's a chocolate or pumpkin pie. I do like chocolate. I like chocolate.

01:47:08
Speaker 1: I'll eat pumpkin pie with some whippream just to be in the theme of Thanksgiving. But if I got all those pist sitting there. I'm going to the pecan first. Yeah, com pecan, pecan, whatever you call it.

01:47:20
Speaker 5: I do have some.

01:47:21
Speaker 2: These are some non traditional things that my mom likes to cook on Thanksgiving in addition to all your traditional stuff. So if any of these strike anybody's fancy, you can throw it into the rotation. These are easy things to throw in beef tenderline. It's a little pricey, but when done right, it pairs very well with the turkey, I think, and all the other additional like traditional sides, the fixings, the fixings, Jalipino cheese grits. So freaking good, that sounds great. There, Oh my god, when you have like your traditional stuffing mashed potatoes and gravy with the jalapeno cheese grits, dude, holy shit, my mouth is watering. She also does sweet potatoes, yams, and carrots, slices, all those, puts them in a little baking tray. You just slap some olive oil and salt and pepper, and your due stick that in the oven.

01:48:20
Speaker 1: So good, dude. Some marshmallows on top.

01:48:22
Speaker 2: Oh, if you're a big marshmallow guy, that would pair very well with that. That would pair very well.

01:48:28
Speaker 1: Keep talking to me.

01:48:31
Speaker 2: Something she does that is so random, but I've loved it every year is she just gets this thick cut bacon and just does some oven baked bacon and just has it sitting there on a plate next to everything else. And I don't know why, but the bacon's always the first one to go. It's always the first oneacans just so easy to grab and get something in while you're in line, you know what I mean. Baking comes out, you grab it, you eat it. It feels like it's you know, this doesn't count. You would never It's almost like she knows that I'm going to use it as a utensil each year for my jalapeno cheese grits. I'm using the bacon too, oh dude. And then she makes a great salad. It's just a arugula, tomatoes, avocado, a little bit of pesto, tiny bit of pesto, a little bit of parme sean, and a nice little lemon.

01:49:19
Speaker 1: Vin a gret duding, give me some deviled eggs. Deviled eggs. I feel like you love him or hate him. I love deviled eggs. Bro done well, game changer. When you you can tell he's from Texas. You know why, because he even loves the comment. If done well, it's always bigger in Texas, always better. Hey, I've done right.

01:49:41
Speaker 2: Oh well, I'm not saying like Texas has a way of doing devil decks bravado.

01:49:47
Speaker 1: If done right, well, it's like I actually agree with him. If if they're done wrong, it's not. It's as good that way. If you don't have a little.

01:50:01
Speaker 2: It's gotta have a little paprika, maybe some chives, maybe some bacon bits in there.

01:50:07
Speaker 1: You know, I think it's phenomenal, But you get you my like I'm palid. I'm kind of like a little kid. I love some good cuisines. But you give me any version of deviled eggs and I'm probably gonna love it or I'm gonna be excited to see it. Anyway. You come across a great one. Absolutely, I'm with you. Yeah, But when you say you've done right, you're almost like drawn the line. If not done right, you know, I I'm above that.

01:50:29
Speaker 2: I'm above that if I bite into it and I, uh, what's what's the type of gas that's trapped in an egg? It's it's also in water like water, hydrogen.

01:50:41
Speaker 1: It's not hydrogen.

01:50:42
Speaker 2: It's you'll like, turn on your shower and sometimes it smells like eggs, but.

01:50:48
Speaker 1: You gotta get it. You gotta get the water looked at man, farts, not carbon monoxide. Sulfur.

01:50:57
Speaker 2: When you get a when you get thank you, Derek, when you get a deviled egg that has that like sulfur smell and that sulfur taste to it, it's just kind of like, oh man, that's all I was reference to.

01:51:09
Speaker 3: Yeah, put you guys onto what I'm most excited about. It's not even Thanksgiving Friday. I'm going with one of my best friends to a place called Mad Mex. They do a gobble rito. It is a Thanksgiving dinner in a burrito smothered with gravy. What everything on the plate wrapped up in this huge burrito with gravy. They only do it at Thanksgiving and then six months out from Thanksgiving.

01:51:30
Speaker 1: It's the greatest thing. And that's here in Nashville. That is in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Shrem I'm sorry, bring a couple bag. It won't be as good, probably, go Lee. That doesn't sound good man, unreal because again it's like you talk about all the og stuff on a plate. Everything else. You don't know what everybody does. But it's like those family members who bring in those dishes, the little gritz cast role, whatever you were talking about. You got just some hitters that you're so excited about to see on the dinner table. Dude, God, let's go. Ki can't get get it into the lesson. Oh I did have I know, I had a quick one. We'll end with yours and my wife texting me that we're good. Probably some bullshit, yeah, probably shout out to Oomy. No, he was just sending me some thought bubbles. We let each other and we're thinking, oh, I'm thinking about each other, all right. So this one is just a quick one, easy one I found on Instagram and uh interestingly enough comes after when I was talking about my the the whole Lane Kiff and Saga last week of getting the mill KB present, YadA, YadA, YadA. Oh yeah, so found this one on uh on Instagram. This one comes from uh. C. S Lewis said, children are not a distraction from more important work. They are the most important work. In the end, the legacy that matters won't be what you built in the world. It will be who you raised and whether they felt safe, scene and loved in your presence. Just a simple little quote, simple little thought, provoker, provoker starter.

01:53:06
Speaker 2: I love that thought. I also love that C. S. Lewis was good buddies with one of my favorite writers, J R. R. Tolkien, Lord of the Rings guy.

01:53:17
Speaker 1: We love Sherman love someings. I like Lord of the Rings too. I can't recite it the way you can. You you're you're, you're a sick o.

01:53:23
Speaker 2: For anybody that's boys with Tolkien is good by me.

01:53:28
Speaker 1: Oh you know he's good. Let him in, He's good. C. S Lewis, all right, bring him in. I love that quote. Love that quote.

01:53:37
Speaker 2: I often think about, uh, what you said, of all the little moments that you have to like teach a lesson, instead of getting upset, Uh that guy in the park, Yeah, yeah.

01:53:50
Speaker 1: Think about how you want him to be in the next thirty years, not the next thirty seconds. Yes, And I'm always a banger bro.

01:53:55
Speaker 2: I'm already training myself because Scarlett cannot talk.

01:53:59
Speaker 1: I cannot talk to.

01:54:00
Speaker 2: Scarlet that I can, but she doesn't know what I'm saying. And I already find myself in those frustrating moments. I'm trying to coach myself of like, hey, this, these are those types of opportunities.

01:54:11
Speaker 1: You've got to talk it out. Yeah, So I've started doing we got to talk this out. You can't say now you're gonna listen to that right now?

01:54:17
Speaker 2: She cries every time I take her home from daycare, and so I started doing pep talks before I put her in the car instead of just putting her in. And I take her out of her stroller and I hold her and I give her a pep talk for about three to four minutes, and we are two for two on no tears after the pep talk?

01:54:34
Speaker 1: Sweetheart, have you ever heard man in the arena? Let me read this to you before you get in the car seat. Do you know who jucko? Will it? Let me put you on game money.

01:54:46
Speaker 2: I wrote a thankful letter or a thankful note that I was going to read let.

01:54:53
Speaker 1: Me let you buckle it.

01:54:56
Speaker 2: Because we went around and we said what we're thankful for on the bus. I had a very lackluster answer. I felt like I just kind of like spouted something off. So I wanted to say what I was thankful for because I have also not been a thankful boy of late. I am thankful for the opportunity to be a part of the show. I truly don't know how I would be going about dad life without a place to discuss things and people to learn and hear from that constantly promote growth of character, of skill, and paternal swagger.
