Bussin' With The Boys

In this episode of For The Dads with Former NFL Linebacker Will Compton, hosts Will and Sherman break down Will’s Christmas trip to New York City that turned into full-blown chaos when Will’s entire family got sick. What should’ve been a magical holiday quickly became a crash course in dad survival, patience, and choosing humor when everything goes sideways.

The episode kicks off with Christmas chaos from the jump, as Will recaps how fast plans unraveled, why he still loves NYC, and what it’s like parenting through sickness while trying to keep the holiday spirit alive. The boys then dive into gift-giving expectations, fan comments, and the pressure dads feel to make Christmas “perfect.”

Other highlights include:

• Uncle Derrik’s gifts to the pod
  • Will and Sherman’s favorite gifts growing up
  • An absolutely insane dad hack from a caller
  • Why choosing joy beats stressing over things you can’t control

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. 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.

Recorded: December 22nd 2025 | Will Compton and Taylor Lewan are back on the bus with a special guest this week — College Football Playoff quarterback Ty Simpson of the Alabama Crimson Tide.

Before Ty hops on, the boys kick things off by breaking down Taylor Lewan’s trip to Norman, Oklahoma and College Station, including a little sideline-pass drama that had things getting spicy. Will Compton also recaps his family Christmas trip to New York City — which somehow went fantastic.

Then Ty Simpson joins the show and this one takes off. Ty dives into his journey to Alabama, what it was like being recruited by Nick Saban, and the chaos of winning in Norman against the Sooners — complete with 50 Cent, wild fanfare, and an unforgettable atmosphere. He breaks down the Crimson Tide’s epic comeback, his mindset in the middle of the madness, and what it takes to stay ready when your moment comes.

Ty’s been a Tier 1 Bussin’ With The Boys supporter for a long time, and the boys reflect on first meeting him back when he was a third-string quarterback — leading to plenty of laughs, stories, and locker-room energy. Plus, Jack McPherson sneaks in a breakdown of a hockey game featuring Matt “Ferda” Malone because… of course he does.

Football stories, playoff pressure, Alabama culture, and classic bus chaos — this one’s got it all.
Big Hugs, Tiny Kisses

On this Monday NFL Football recap, Will Compton and Taylor Lewan are joined by Greg Olsen to break down all the biggest storylines from Week 16 of the NFL season.

Greg and the boys start with the Philadelphia Eagles getting back on track after wins over the Raiders and Commanders, debating whether Philly has what it takes to make a Super Bowl run. From there, they zoom out to the NFC as a whole and why the conference feels wide open with multiple teams capable of making a deep playoff push.

One of those teams is the Chicago Bears, as the guys discuss rookie quarterback Caleb Williams and head coach Ben Johnson, along with the Bears’ future outlook. They also break down Rams vs. Seahawks, the controversial officiating moments from Lions vs. Steelers, and Ravens vs. Patriots, where Drake Maye and New England picked up another big win.

To close things out, the conversation turns to the MVP race, including Matthew Stafford and Drake Maye, plus a deeper discussion on the standout quarterback draft class featuring Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, Bo Nix, and Drake Maye.

Full breakdowns, hot takes, and NFL storytelling...enjoy.
