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.

all together?

What could save the day? You know what? Temperatures are
too high right now, Like, let's just throw on for
the dads, these guys on the life.

Maybe we can laugh a little bit together to save
family Thanksgiving. Hey, look at these bozos. Look at these
goofball I'll.

Speaker 1 (03:40):
Tell you what though. BT six has been out there
with the ollipop Lollipopa drink six, I mean ollipop sent
a shipment to Adam. Yeah, he's out there running a
video with Chris Bapple and Classic Grape Shout Out the Boy,
ad him on the front lines with Papa Team six Man.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
They put him on Lollipop's like all of his all
the socials, everything, they collabsed with him, like he's not
even a content guy, He's just a dad out.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
I was able to shoot him.

Speaker 3 (04:05):
So we had to obviously get him his march from
the show, because when you call into the show, you
do get merched, and so texted him that link and
he his text back to the phone started with this
may be automated, but I'm still sending this text, which
they're not automated. 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.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
This is the nicest guy.

Speaker 3 (04:25):
And then every comment underneath his Ollipop video was he
looks exactly how he sounds, which is hilarious.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
So some pet sikos found his video. We're in the comments,
well they found it.

Speaker 3 (04:36):
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.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
That's Adam from for the Dad's podcast, is what they
were saying.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
That's hilarious. It fired me up. Let's get into uh, look,

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

(05:37):
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

(05:57):
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

(06:18):
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.

(06:39):
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

(07:00):
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

(07:21):
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

(07:42):
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

(08:02):
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.

(08:24):
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

(08:44):
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.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
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.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
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

(09:37):
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.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
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.

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

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

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

Speaker 4 (10:11):
That one.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
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?

Speaker 4 (10:19):
That?

Speaker 1 (10:20):
Was Will Compton?

Speaker 4 (10:21):
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,

(10:42):
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.

Speaker 1 (10:53):
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.

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

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

Speaker 3 (11:12):
Man.

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

Speaker 2 (11:15):
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

(11:37):
daycare door the entire way and kind of has to
look like WHOA hold the phone, where are you going?

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

Speaker 2 (11:46):
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.

Speaker 1 (11:59):
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.

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

one hundred pounds. I believe is the money mark here.
Let's go baby girl. PT six since day one with
you guys from the UK.

Speaker 1 (18:02):
From the UK, good good for the international?

Speaker 2 (18:06):
Is the UK back on the pound? Are they off
the euro?

Speaker 1 (18:09):
No, they're on the pound. They're they're not in the
Union anymore?

Speaker 2 (18:12):
Okay cool? Yeah, I was like I don't think I've
ever seen that symbol.

Speaker 4 (18:16):
Quick if if any of Britz in here can do
you guys still use euros if you're making a purchase
somewhere in Europe?

Speaker 1 (18:22):
That's all I want to ask, great questions from yeah
six the captain. Hey, any Brits listen right now? You
guys still use a euro pound?

Speaker 4 (18:30):
Like?

Speaker 1 (18:31):
Talk to us?

Speaker 4 (18:31):
And how's that exchange? To do it through bank automatically
or do you have to do like a third party?

Speaker 1 (18:35):
Thank you? Look at that up for a man who
just loves some beer in Tennessee, volunteers, football and many
other things. We don't know what else? What was exchange
rate from the pound to the dollar?

Speaker 5 (18:46):
And they say we have four brain cells between us.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
We got we all little spice, We all action a
little bit about something, but not a whole lot about nothing.

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

Speaker 6 (19:01):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (19:01):
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.

(19:25):
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.

Speaker 1 (19:42):
Rs in there.

Speaker 2 (19:43):
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.

Speaker 1 (19:52):
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

(20:13):
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.

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

Speaker 1 (20:27):
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.

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

Speaker 1 (20:43):
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

(21:04):
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

(21:26):
everything else taken off. And that feels like a weight
off of her shoulders. Yes, that line stuck out to
me too.

Speaker 2 (21:30):
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.

Speaker 1 (21:46):
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?

Speaker 2 (21:52):
It?

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

Speaker 2 (22:00):
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

(22:21):
run through and then we can just touch on whatever
we want to touch on.

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

Speaker 2 (22:28):
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

(22:50):
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.

Speaker 1 (23:12):
We're good.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
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.

Speaker 1 (23:32):
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.

Speaker 2 (23:39):
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.

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

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

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

Speaker 2 (24:05):
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.

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

Speaker 3 (24:29):
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?

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

Speaker 1 (24:45):
Boom, there it.

Speaker 2 (24:46):
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

(25:07):
and doing dances and trading her off to me. And
now I'm playing I'm playing trader.

Speaker 1 (25:12):
Back to Jill.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
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

(25:33):
the opponent, the opposing.

Speaker 1 (25:35):
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

(25:56):
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.

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

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

Speaker 4 (26:13):
No?

Speaker 2 (26:13):
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

(26:33):
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.

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

Speaker 2 (26:53):
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?

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

Speaker 2 (27:08):
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.

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

Speaker 1 (27:26):
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?

Speaker 2 (27:33):
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,

(27:56):
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.

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

Speaker 2 (28:14):
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.

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

Speaker 2 (28:24):
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

(28:45):
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.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
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

(29:14):
whether it's drawing, doing a puzzle or something like that,
keeping them engaged. But they can just decide now's not
the time.

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

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

Speaker 2 (29:27):
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

(29:50):
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.

Speaker 1 (30:02):
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.

Speaker 2 (30:14):
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

(30:36):
was gonna edit once I like got there.

Speaker 1 (30:38):
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.

Speaker 2 (30:43):
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.

Speaker 1 (30:58):
That is.

Speaker 2 (30:58):
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.

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

Speaker 2 (31:21):
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.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (31:36):
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.

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

Speaker 2 (31:53):
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?

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

Speaker 2 (32:12):
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,

(32:35):
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.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
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.

Speaker 2 (32:58):
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.

Speaker 1 (33:06):
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.

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

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

Speaker 2 (33:27):
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

(33:51):
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

(34:15):
out that is like the best dad hack of all time.

Speaker 1 (34:19):
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

(34:41):
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,

(35:01):
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,

(35:24):
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

(35:46):
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,

(36:07):
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.
We gotta get stuff, getting the washer. Like again, she
Charle handled it. I was like, God, we gotta all right, Rube,

(36:27):
get off the bed. Mom wants to change the sheets.
And look over at charlew do you want puke all
over the sheets? You gotta walk, we gotta wash.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
You want to clean the sheets? Your mom wants to
clean the sheets. She's a psychopath, honey. I can't believe
she's doing it, but she wants.

Speaker 1 (36:43):
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.

Speaker 2 (36:49):
That's that's real, coming to your stuff at four o'clock
in the morning, that I might tell you.

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

(41:22):
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.

Speaker 4 (41:40):
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

(42:02):
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.

Speaker 1 (42:17):
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.

Speaker 2 (42:23):
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,

(42:43):
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,

(43:07):
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

(43:27):
only time that I've seen something crippling like that.

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

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

Speaker 4 (43:40):
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.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
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.

Speaker 2 (44:15):
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

(44:35):
be We don't got time to belied. I guess so,
so I will take that compliment.

Speaker 1 (44:40):
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

(45:00):
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

(45:22):
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

(45:42):
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

(46:04):
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

(46:24):
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

(46:45):
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

(47:07):
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.

Speaker 2 (47:21):
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.

Speaker 1 (47:30):
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.

Speaker 2 (47:43):
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.

Speaker 1 (47:51):
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,

(48:11):
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

(48:32):
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

(48:53):
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

(49:15):
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,

(49:36):
you gotta get through Tuesday.

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

Speaker 1 (49:44):
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

(50:05):
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

(50:29):
on Friday, tune in the underscore? Will we see underscore?
Will Compton on social media channels.

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

Speaker 1 (50:42):
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

(51:02):
the plane.

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

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

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

Speaker 1 (51:13):
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,

(51:33):
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.

Speaker 2 (51:44):
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.

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

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

Speaker 1 (52:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (52:09):
Like I I didn't quit or like throw in the
towel or anything like that, but like I just had
I had to reanalyze.

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

Speaker 2 (52:21):
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

(52:43):
you do have, et cetera.

Speaker 1 (52:45):
Of just.

Speaker 1 (01:03:06):
We're having some banter last week about Terminalists and how
great of a show it was. I got a couple here,
a comment from on Spotify and YouTube. The one on
Spotify is Tristan Novilla Boys. The Terminalist series will blow
you away. I was just just like Willy Oneshelf never
read fiction books. I watched the show, found out it
was based on a book, and read the first three

(01:03:28):
over one weekend. They are incredible. I'll tell you what
the Terminalists might get me out with these with these
fiction book.

Speaker 2 (01:03:35):
Wait did he just really quick he read three of
the books in one weekend. Yeah, and read the first
three over one weekend. They are incredible. Good lord, and
it's someone Willy one Scheff never read. I was just
like Willy one Scheff, never read a fiction book, another
one from EMK Burt. My husband loves Terminal Determinalist series.

Speaker 1 (01:03:55):
He's listened to all the books on Spotify and like you,
it's his first fiction book he's ever read. Read it
sounds like each book gets better and better. So they
have audio as well. Just shout out terminalists.

Speaker 2 (01:04:07):
Have you ever done an audiobook before?

Speaker 1 (01:04:09):
Yeah, I've done the David Goggins one, can't hurt me. Yeah,
I've done another one. It's like it's from I can't
think of his name. I was just gonna say I
really enjoy audio books. I had done.

Speaker 2 (01:04:27):
My first job in Texas was filling out like purchase orders.
It was the type where you could just have headphones
in the entire time.

Speaker 1 (01:04:35):
And I did.

Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
Revisited the Harry Potter series and then did it Stephen
King's it on.

Speaker 1 (01:04:42):
Oh you did it? Did it? It was really good,
really good.

I wish i'd known earlier. This is by Kevin Kelly.
That's an audiobook that I have listened to a lot
of good like phrases and one liners and just like
rules for life and things that kind of think about
and chew on.

Speaker 2 (01:05:58):
Yeah, those are the audiobooks that we brought up a
reading list before. But I feel like that would be
fun to to explore and jump into more like a
reading list and slash a uh.

Speaker 1 (01:06:10):
Well, you gotta get on before the day. It's a
reading list. Yeah. And by the way, I didn't uh
my crack of cold one this week is going to

couple tour, but again as a dad who feels guilty
when he's not there in the trenches and puke is
going everywhere. She she was the one that was getting
puked on on Friday night. She was the one dealing
with the puke on Saturday. She was the one noticing

(01:06:32):
Scottie crying on the on the monitor to get her,
get her taken care of on Sunday. So my crack
a cold one is to my beautiful wife Charle and

back on the crackical when we're setting us we're setting
ourselves up for a funny, a good laugh when our
wives do come on the show, because we talk about
the suck that they're embracing. We love that. You love
doing that, like you're just wanting to change the diapers,
like embracing the suck with the puke, and they're just

(01:09:38):
gonna they're gonna have just targets on us, ready to unload.

Speaker 2 (01:09:41):
Oh yeah, there's no part of Jill that sees any
type of comment that is like positive towards our show
or towards myself. That's like, oh, Sherman's such a fraud
like that. That's never like come out and cover say sure,
anything like that. But I'm sure there are so many

(01:10:02):
moments where she has had to bite her tongue of
like I wish you could I wish you could have
seen this guy on Sunday was doing just a great
job of representing ptsticks And it's all deserved. I mean
it's all deserved because we are not perfect. I even
laughed when you said at the beginning we're not experts.

(01:10:24):
I was like, I wasn't one this weekend. I can
promise you that just a couple of dads. We're a
couple of dads trying to survive. Dude, speaking of a
couple of dads, we have a couple of call ins
from a couple of dads.

Speaker 1 (01:10:39):
Now, just to remind everybody, if you want to be
featured on the show, just calling the six on one
the dad's it is our hotline voicemail where you just
you just send us a voicemail. Whatever you're going through.
Maybe it's a high, maybe it's low, maybe you're shouting
out something. Whatever it is, you call the six on
one of the dads, our boys, Derek and Chef break
them down. We just do a couple on each show.
We send you free merch, Send you free merch. Who

(01:11:00):
is sending free merch to this week?

Speaker 2 (01:11:02):
This week we are sending free free merch to Derek
Whitton's father.

Speaker 1 (01:11:07):
Oh, I wonder how he got picked out of the
entire listen Chefs Victim Cheff picked it out, picked it out.
But we have miss what's it? What's it called? Where
you like you're like hiring your family members. Nepotism, nepotism,
a little bit of people to a little bit. Who

(01:11:29):
said that? Who's saying that? Yeah, Papa Win and Papa Compton,
they're making it on the show. That is true.

Speaker 2 (01:11:35):
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.

Speaker 6 (01:11:50):
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

(01:12:11):
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

(01:12:31):
a handful of Skittles on steroids into your mouth.

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

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

Speaker 6 (01:12:40):
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.

Speaker 5 (01:12:52):
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.

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

Speaker 2 (01:13:02):
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

(01:13:25):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:13:35):
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

(01:13:56):
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?

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

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

Speaker 3 (01:14:12):
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.

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

Speaker 2 (01:14:26):
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.

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

Speaker 3 (01:14:47):
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

(01:15:08):
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.

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

Speaker 3 (01:15:17):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:15:27):
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.

Speaker 2 (01:15:44):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:15:51):
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

(01:16:12):
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

(01:16:32):
just switched up everything. Yeah, when the where'd the highway go?
Where's it?

Speaker 2 (01:16:37):
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?

Speaker 1 (01:16:45):
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

(01:17:06):
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.

(01:17:28):
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.

(01:17:48):
Where'd you guys go. We're just like, look right, oh,
I got you all right, yeah, I see it.

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

Speaker 1 (01:18:01):
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.

Speaker 2 (01:18:22):
Next caller, next caller, speaking of sweet treats, we got
one that went wrong, went a little sideways.

Speaker 1 (01:18:29):
Okay, will shim, how we doing boys?

Speaker 6 (01:18:32):
Ship boy?

Speaker 1 (01:18:33):

Speaker 7 (01:18:35):
I got to call in and tell myself h coach
who is now seventeen weeks.

Speaker 1 (01:18:40):
In Australia for ship.

Speaker 7 (01:18:44):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:19:05):
I'll take care. God bless him, God bless him. Congratulations
on the outcoming kiddo. Congratulates on the outcoming kiddo. His
mine's everywhere. Well, let's just say he knows your name.
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

(01:19:27):
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.

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

Speaker 1 (01:19:41):
One.

Speaker 2 (01:19:42):
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.

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

Speaker 2 (01:19:59):
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,

(01:20:23):
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.

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

Speaker 4 (01:20:41):
Go go.

Speaker 2 (01:20:43):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:20:51):
Is the happiest wifey of all time. No, no, sweet daddy,
ain't going back outside. No, no, you get out of here.
Listen go Yeah, you need to stop right now. I
got a pillow on my hands. It's gonna go over
your face, you know, stuff telling me what to do. Hey,

(01:21:11):
like number one, you gotta Ben in the needs of
the wife. Yeah, yeah, Ben, don't break Yeah, Ben, don't break. Yeah, Ben,
don't break.

Speaker 3 (01:21:17):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:21:17):
You gotta stay locked in and you're in the trenches.
You're gonna stay in the trenches. That's just the way
it is. You gotta learn. This is the good mentality.
This is embracing the suck. 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,

frustrations off your chest. Love that he called in us

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.

Speaker 2 (01:22:38):
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.

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

Speaker 2 (01:22:58):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:23:15):
Congratulations.

Speaker 2 (01:23:17):
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

(01:23:40):
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.

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

Speaker 2 (01:23:54):
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

(01:24:14):
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

(01:24:37):
with my wife and son, thinking three to four months
away from home.

Speaker 1 (01:24:42):
Good.

Speaker 2 (01:24:43):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:24:59):
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

(01:25:20):
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

(01:25:41):
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.

Speaker 2 (01:26:02):
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,

(01:26:23):
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

(01:26:45):
good reminder to like stay the course.

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

Speaker 3 (01:26:50):
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.

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

Speaker 5 (01:27:17):
Yeah.

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

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

Speaker 1 (01:27:22):

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.

(01:27:44):
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

(01:28:05):
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,

(01:28:27):
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.

(01:28:50):
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.

Speaker 2 (01:28:59):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:29:16):
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,

(01:29:37):
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

(01:29:59):
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

(01:30:20):
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

(01:30:40):
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.

(01:31:00):
Maybe I need to shift just a little bit to
see if I can bridge whatever gap.

Speaker 4 (01:31:04):
It is.

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

Speaker 2 (01:31:11):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:31:21):
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,

(01:31:42):
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

(01:32:07):
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.

Speaker 2 (01:32:17):
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.

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

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

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

Speaker 2 (01:32:39):
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

(01:33:00):
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

(01:33:24):
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

(01:33:46):
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

(01:34:06):
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.

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

Speaker 2 (01:34:23):
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

(01:34:43):
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

(01:35:04):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:35:21):
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?

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

Speaker 1 (01:35:39):
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

(01:36:03):
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,

(01:36:27):
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

(01:36:50):
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

(01:37:11):
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.

Speaker 2 (01:37:27):
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

(01:37:47):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:37:54):
But just you are a great dad. There are great
dads out there, and you're doing a great job. So
I don't know. I was just trying to land the
land the plane. I got a little lost, But you're
a good day. I appreciate that. I walked to the
wrong side of the wrong side. Where's the car? I said?
I thought we were on the pharmacy side.

Speaker 2 (01:38:16):
This has grocery you know, honey, we did park in
front of the grocery side.

Speaker 1 (01:38:22):
Well then we're a good dad that too, man. But yeah,
I'm thankful for you, Derek. I'm thankful for you, Chef.
I'm thankful for you. Like happy Thanksgiving. We're going to
get into the lesson. But Coppy, Thanksgov. Yeah, thanks, give
me some turkey.

Speaker 2 (01:38:40):
Gravy you call it dressing or stuff and what hey,

Boys win thirty two Deep Fried.

Speaker 4 (01:40:01):
Baked Whole Chef Chef Bunching Air tells me enough that
people don't not have and for all all of y'all
who do not believe in the traditional way, the way
that our founding fathers saw when they said, make turkey
on Thanksgiving. Mine's going into a Salt Brandon night and

(01:40:22):
I'm gonna show you guys what a good turkey looks like.

Speaker 1 (01:40:24):
Yeah, and maybe I'll convert a few. There. You go,
So you believe you you you want to stick to
your guns. You want to believe in staying narrow minded
about our forefathers in tradition. You believe in slavery, just
make it insanely odd. But we gotta be a conversation
at at Thanksgiving dinner, Tiera, you talk about founding fathers slavery,

(01:40:49):
What do you said with that?

Speaker 5 (01:40:51):
The entire family that was saying there watching us on
Thanksgiving Day, they all.

Speaker 1 (01:40:55):
Just whoa man wants to take? You just want to
bake a turkey. It was this guy. But you want
to keep mom in the kitchen the whole time, roles do.

Speaker 4 (01:41:07):
We're a male cook is a male cooking household, we
we break the norm. I'm so your mom made good enough.

Speaker 1 (01:41:17):
I really don't.

Speaker 4 (01:41:22):
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 (01:41:34):
Mm hmmm.

Speaker 4 (01:41:35):
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

(01:41:57):
Taylor Southern, Taylor Souther.

Speaker 1 (01:41:59):
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

(01:42:24):
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

(01:42:47):
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.

Speaker 5 (01:43:10):
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.

Speaker 2 (01:43:31):
Yeah.

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

Speaker 2 (01:43:37):
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

(01:44:00):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:44:16):
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.

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

Speaker 1 (01:44:37):
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.

Speaker 2 (01:44:52):
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?

Speaker 1 (01:45:03):
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

(01:45:24):
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

(01:45:46):
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.

(01:46:09):
I love some dessert. I love some pecan pie.

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

Speaker 1 (01:46:19):
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.

Speaker 2 (01:46:39):
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.

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

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

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

Speaker 1 (01:47:08):
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.

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

Speaker 2 (01:47:21):
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,

(01:47:44):
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,

(01:48:05):
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.

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

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

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

Speaker 2 (01:48:31):
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,

(01:48:52):
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

(01:49:13):
little bit of pesto, tiny bit of pesto, a little
bit of parme sean, and a nice little lemon.

Speaker 1 (01:49:19):
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.

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

Speaker 1 (01:49:47):
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.

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

Speaker 1 (01:50:07):
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

(01:50:27):
I'm above that.

Speaker 2 (01:50:29):
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.

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

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

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

Speaker 2 (01:50:57):
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.

Speaker 3 (01:51:09):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:51:30):
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

(01:51:51):
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,

(01:52:14):
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

(01:52:35):
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

(01:52:56):
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.

Speaker 2 (01:53:06):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:53:17):
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.

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

Speaker 1 (01:53:28):
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.

Speaker 2 (01:53:37):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:53:50):
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.

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

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

Speaker 2 (01:54:00):
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.

Speaker 1 (01:54:11):
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?

Speaker 2 (01:54:17):
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?

Speaker 1 (01:54:34):
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.

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

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

Speaker 2 (01:54:56):
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

(01:55:18):
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. I
am so thankful for my wife, Jillian Young.

Speaker 1 (01:55:37):
I love you so much.

Speaker 2 (01:55:40):
And you are the absolute heartbeat of our household. Hearing
Scarlett's cues as you wake her up with good morning
my love is music to my soul. Thank you for
being so understanding and loving and gracious as a partner
and a teammate. Thank you for challenging me because we
all know I need it. Thank you for always having
a spark and fervor to live life as an adventure.

(01:56:04):
To my sweet Scarlet girl, my favorite parts of my
day are seeing your smile in the mornings when I
wake you up from your crib, and at night hearing
your breaths grow long and slow with your head buried
into my neck or chest. You are my whole world,
and I cannot wait to spend the rest of my
life having adventures with you and your mother and watching

(01:56:27):
you grow up into an incredible woman just like your
mother and your grandmother's PT six and NT six. Thank
you for every post story, call in, write in, or
comment that you leave. They are all reminders of how
lucky we are to be parents, how lucky we are
to have a community that can build one another up,

(01:56:49):
and how lucky I am to be a part of
the show. To Deacon Chef, thank you guys for making
the show run like a greased up deaf guy. Your
hard work dedication to making a fantastic show shines through
every week, and it's just yet another reason why I
am so excited to sit down and record each episode.

when I have forgotten.

my family. Thank you for wanting to start this show
that both celebrates dads and calls us to a higher standard.
But also thank you for letting me be a part

(01:57:35):
of it with you. I am truly blessed. Life might
kick our ass, but a wise man once said, calm
sees never made a skilled sailor in some days our
ass may be grass and wifey has the mower, but
we can always use a clean shave. Good Happy Thanksgiving,

(01:57:57):
well said man. And I didn't cry.

good man. Happy Thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving, Bro, Thanksgiving. Thankful for you.
Thank you. Sherm's the best.

Speaker 4 (01:58:14):
Sherm does a lot people don't probably know, but Sherm,
along with coasting, is a producer. Derek, I'm sure we
both can agree that Sharm is an integral, integral factor
in this show.

Speaker 1 (01:58:25):
We wouldn't be able to do our jobs about him.
So that was very nice to you. Thank you absolutely well.

Scarlett will get to grow up and listen to that

(01:59:05):
one day. Yeah, dude, get to read it's you on paper,
but also go back in here, old man. Let's assume
in twenty years and she's going back in the archives
and gets to listen to that. Yeah, it's really cool,
very very thankful for the show.

Speaker 2 (01:59:20):
We have said it five million times and just really
thankful for all you guys and what a cool opportunity.

write ends, all the comments. I have, the one where
gentlemen across the pond rue and her her imaginary friend,

rocking cheeriot. Yeah, and I was like, man, this show,
