For the Dads Will Compton’s MONSTER Parenting Fail, Sherman's Goof & Enjoying The Magic Years | For The Dads
This week’s episode of For The Dads kicks off with chaos—Will and Sherm forgot to hit record for the first 50 minutes. But the boys bounce back and dive into everything dad-related with laughs, lessons, and a little destruction.
They start by breaking down the recording mishap, then talk fan engagement and the rise of the iconic “Papa Team 6” along with other hilarious dad community nicknames. Will shares a story from the park with his daughter and how parenting shortcuts (like saying “the monsters are coming”) can backfire. Sherm opens up about his biggest dad fail yet—losing his cool, destroying his front lawn, and going full raccoon assassin... all at 1 a.m.
The episode wraps with practical dad hacks, a survival kit breakdown, listener call-ins, and a thoughtful reflection from Sahil Bloom’s Five Types of Wealth, specifically “The Magic Years” and how to cherish them.

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.
