In this episode of For The Dads with Former NFL Linebacker Will Compton, Willy C takes the girls on their first camping trip, Sherm gets ambushed by haunted house actors he hired himself, and a PT6 listener hands the boys their greatest write-in to date, all while keeping the episode fun, fresh and of course, a little spooky.

The episode kicks off with Sherm opening up about quitting caffeine and burning the boats on his 400 goal before getting into topics like:

* Scarlett enters the hitting phase (and Papa Sherm don't play)

* Will's campfire ghost story that had Rue and Scotty begging for more

* Neighbor Blake's surprise burger drop on Sherm's solo weekend

Other highlights include:

* A PT6 Voicemail about a daycare biter with 50+ bite reports

* Cannon roasting Sherm's flag football mentality (and the comeback win that followed)

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.
