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. -----   FOLLOW THE BOYS Instagram:   / Forthedadspod  Twitter:   / Forthedadspod Facebook:   / Forthedadspod TikTok: / Forthedadspod LISTEN iTunes: http://bit.ly/BWTB_Apple Spotify: http://bit.ly/BWTB_Spotify ----- SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Olipop - Buy any 2 cans of Olipop in store, and we'll pay you back for one.

You might be thinking to yourself, Willie Boy, why is your, you sound a little down right now. I'm doing that to anchor the emotion for the severity of a situation that we need to address. A few things happened a few episodes ago that we need to handle. And before we do anything else and get into this episode, I just urge you guys. to listen to this message.

Thank you. My fellow Americans and Pt Sixers, a few weeks ago, I was on this incredible podcast, and I confidently announced to the world that my next child would be a boy. The ultrasound supported these claims, and like many leaders before me, I spoke with great confidence,

but perhaps a bit too early. After further review, including a blood sample, in the official anatomy scan, new information has come across my desk. And tonight, I sit before you to say, we're in fact having a girl. Now listen, I'm not going to lie to you.

I was extremely excited about having the possibility of a boy. But as a father of girls, I also know there is nothing better than raising strong, hilarious, sweet little girls who completely run my household. So while the administration briefly believed it was entering in its boy dad era, we are proudly continuing the current policy of girl dad dominance. The science is in, the decision is final, and I cannot be more grateful. To my beautiful daughters, when Rebel LeWan, my oldest, I will say,

your beauty is unmatched, your confidence is unmasched, your confidence is real. You've never met a stranger in your entire life. You keep us guessing with your profound thoughts. And I love being your dad each and every single day. To my youngest, Willow Rose Luan, your bravery and knowing who you are and what you want at all times keeps us on our toes. And I have no doubt later in life you will be one of the most extremely successful women this world has ever seen. I am so gratefully honored to be your father. And I know that the both of you are going to be amazing older sisters to our youngest daughter. I want to say thank you.

I want to say God bless my wife. God bless these United States of America. God bless these proud girl dads out there. And God bless for the dads. This hat is now available on Wednesday. Please enjoy this episode with Sherman Young and William Earl Compton. Thank you. That's my time.

Why chromosome? We call upon this. Thesticles and fallas. Y chromosome. We ask thee to lift thy girl curse that is upon this office that only allows us to produce female offspring. Testicles and fallis. Kalima! Kalima Shatidae!

Why chromosome? Fill us with tea. Hi, hi, T, D, Ticolson Foulas. Thank you, Dan Gable. All right, welcome to For the Dads. I hope the trash is taken out. I hope you had a wonderful March 14th over the weekend. I know we're going to get into a lot of stuff.

We have, look, my little brother, Wyatt, head coach, Coach Compton. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Came to town over the weekend. We talked about it a little bit on Bustin with the boys. But him and his girlfriend Morgan, they came and visited this weekend. Phenomenal. Phenomenal. I texted him yesterday, reflecting on the weekend.

I said, love seeing you this weekend. It was awesome having you guys up. Yeah. I know you're laughing, but I was. I was being very genuine. No, I'd love the idea of you sending a reminiscent text. It was the only reason why I laughed. I was driving home and I was like,

we haven't really said anything to you. You know, we're a couple, we're a couple Compton brothers. We don't like talk about emotions a whole lot. And I'm like, I really enjoyed having him up. Uncle Wyatt, having Uncle Wyatt up. Like, they were awesome with the kiddos. Seeing Wyatt and Morgan engaging with Roo. Roo was on 10 the entire time because they came Friday night

and they got in late. So they probably got in around 10 o'clock. Kids were already in bed. Yeah. And I'm telling my wife, I'm telling Charlott, my A Sweetheart, sit up, stand up. Like, this isn't little brother Wyatt coming to town. This is head coach of North County High School football. Yeah.

Wight Compton. Puff your chest out a little bit. This is his first head coaching job. Like this is, we're here. And this is the alma mater. Yeah. And they come in. We do the greeting.

We show them the house. I'm kind of fired up to show them the house. I'm like, come check out this room. That's sick. You see there's a pool back there. That's sick. It's sunny out tomorrow. You'll be able to see.

see it tomorrow. We're going to be in it. Did you bring your swimming trunks? Swimming trunks? He's like, is it heated? Of course it's heated. And, but as we're all kind of winding down, having some conversation, I'm like, dude, Rue is going to be so hype. She was asking about Uncle Wyatt. Because she's asleep because it's 10 o'clock. Yeah. And I was like, I just know when we wake up the morning, because, you know, why it can, they can sleep in, why he can sleep in. He might be a nine or 10 guy. At times eight, he does teach. So he's got to get up throughout the week to be a teacher. Yeah.

But on weekends, I know my boy, I know my little bro likes to sleep a little bit. He needs a rest, dude. 8 a.m. at the latest because I'm telling you right now. You told them that? Yeah. Because I'm telling you right now, Rue is going to want to go in your room and wake you up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But he was operating.

He was ready to go, showered up. But it was around 8 o'clock. And Rue, what do you know it? God done eating breakfast. She's like, can I go wake up Uncle Wyatt? I'm like, sure you can go back there and wake up Uncle Wyatt. Because I didn't know what he was doing. I didn't know if he was like getting ready or if he was up and going.

But Roo and Scotty loved having them. Roo especially. Roo's got somebody new to boss around, watch or do things. Hey, Wyatt, Uncle Wyatt, let me tell you something. Uncle White, let me tell you something. Ooh. Let me show you this. Here's how you do it.

Uncle White, you got to watch. You can't get any sidebar conversations. No, Uncle Wyatt, I need you to watch. How was she with Morgan? Watch. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Love Morgan. Love Morgan.

We went to, so Saturday, we went to the farmer's market. I shot a couple of photos to Derek because I was holding a nice burrito from Yale's OMG food truck. It goes to Franklin Farmer's Market every weekend. And I love it. Yeah, yeah. But Derek is the food connoisseur himself. Yes.

Mad respect for Derek in his food game. I'm sending him photos of these, the burritos that I've had around town or the food truck sitting around. We're having a little picnic on the grass. We don't have a blanket. How many food pictures have you gotten from Will? Just that burrito? Not enough.

Not enough. Maybe two total right now. That burrito, though, had this cheese crust. That just like, I audibly gasped. Yeah, yeah. And Kat was like, what's wrong? And I was like, well, where's that? And then we got the picture of the whole.

It was a vibe. It looked like a complete vibe. It was a good vibe because Franklin Farmer's Market just moved. Now they're operating wherever that was. And it was fun. So we went to the farmer's market. We did some grocery shopping to get ready for like a little cookout because the in-laws were coming over.

But it's just so nice having family around and in town. I know you have your parents. in town, your family in town quite a bit. But it's so nice because you're standing in line, you're doing all these things, but you know whether it's Uncle Wyatt or Morgan, like you can kind of divide and conquer. Kids want to go out and play in that massive field. We got done getting the burritos and you turn around and look

and the kids are just out there in the middle of the field, just boss and Uncle Wyatt around, boss and Morgan around. And you probably can't hear anything. You just see it. Yeah, and I'm just smiling as I'm just watching. Just having a great time. Lord knows what Roos spouting off to Wyatt.

Yeah. Tell them what to do. We got these, and Charles loves to get these, man, I hate that I can't shout out because I can't think of their name. But these donuts. He's like, not powdered donuts. Damn. Anyway, Charles loves getting these donuts. Some pretty good donuts at Franklin Farmers Market.

Franklin Farmers Market. It's cash only. And we bring a bag back to the house. And wouldn't you know it? My father-in-law, Lola and Opa, they come over, but my father-in-law, without asking any questions, Oh, no. Takes my chocolate-covered donut that I wanted.

Well, he is German. They are known for their strudels, for their baking. But what's up with... They love donuts? The in-laws coming over, your parents, or whatever, and just thinking they have access to everything without asking permission. Did he have, like, a little bit on the mouth, too? when you were looking around.

I didn't know it until I went looking for it. Because I started to prep the meat, get ready for steak and, you know, staking or joking, blow jobs Saturday, March 14. I had some nice steaks, but I go in and I, like, I know it's going to take a little bit. And I'm kind of hungry. I want a little snack. We've been swimming in the pool all day. Yeah.

You're just going to provide for your family tonight and cook the whole damn meal. Yeah. I'm just going to do everything. You're welcome. Right now it's running through my mind and what stuff to Charles do so I can at least. But he's Opa, he's Opa, right? He's Opa. But I go and I'm like, oh yeah, those donuts.

I forgot about the donuts. And I go and I see the bag of donuts. And I open it up and look and there's only two left. It's like a cinnamon one and then another one, like another sugar donut. And my chocolate one's not in there. And so I go out to the pool area out back. Like, Charles, hey, where's my donut? And then wouldn't you know it?

Opa. Oh, I'm sorry. I ate it. And I'm thinking on my head. what what the fuck bro oh opa you spreckoned my deutch at my house i hit it with just a laugh and like oh it's all good but i'm thinking in my head you son of beautiful picture hey opa hey that reminds you come here let's take a walk hey come here you oh hey you know what opah come here yeah you might you might come to the pantry with me and having a word but i sat on it but i'm thinking

What the fuck? Why are you just taking you? Did you just not, are you just opening the bag? And like, he loves sweets. He loves the sweets. He loves his snacks. I'm sure there's, there's PT-6ers out there, empty-sixers thinking of their dad or thinking of their father.

Oh, yeah. They love coming over and getting in the snack jar. Oh, yeah. They love getting in the cabinets. But I sat on it and I saved it for Rosen Thorne when we had dinner and we go around. And Rue wants everybody, Rue wants everybody to do Rosenthorn. Because he was apologetic and was like,

I should have asked. Because I'm thinking, Charles has got like a half dozen. They're six. Mama likes a couple. I just wanted a chocolate cover one. Sweetheart, just give me one chocolate cover one. So we bring them home. There's four left in the bag, but it's a fresh bag that's sitting on the island.

You know what I mean? It's not like he goes in a cabinet and see something. It's like, oh, here's some snacks. I'll get some snacks. It's a fresh bag sitting on the island. Four left. He eats two of them. One being my chocolate cover donut.

So we're sitting down there at dinner time during the cookout. And we go around, Bruce making everybody do Rosent Thorne. My rose is Uncle Wyatt and Morgan coming into town, seeing my little brother and getting to spend time and seeing him spend time and play with you guys and seeing the family together, having our in-laws over, just having a squad together. I love seeing some new fresh faces around. Dad, what's your thorn? My thorn? My thorn is Opa eating my chocolate donut. Everybody starts laughing.

He's laughing. But you can tell he's laughing, but also like, I can tell. Will, are you also mad? And I'm thinking, yeah, you know, Opa, eat my chocolate donut. And I just kind of leave it there. I'm more so venting now that I have for the dads. Yeah. Opa might even be out there listening right now.

So you all haven't had a follow up on the chocolate donut experience. I don't, to me, is one of those situations where the energy being exchanged is very family, friendly, friendly. Yeah. Fun. Yeah. But also in the same breath, and I think men can attest to this, in the same breath, what's understood, does it need to be said? Yeah.

So I do think that we solved a problem without talking about it. Yeah. You learned something that day. That's what men assume anyway. You assume that if I just give off a certain body language or energy, the problem's going to get solved. Yeah. Then if it comes back up, it's like, what do you mean?

I kind of posture like this. You should have, you saw the look in my face. Everybody else laughed with Thorne. I smiled, but I wasn't laughing. I was looking at you. You had that extra little wince in your eyes. It was that that linger in low look. Is that I dare you to do it again.

What was Opus Rose? I wasn't listening to nobody else. I was just waiting for my turn to go on the Rose and Thorne. Great family tradition. Are they called Ellie's old-fashioned donut? Yes, Ellie's. Ellie's old-fashioned donut. Shout out Ellie's, no free shout-outs.

Golly. But some good family fun over the weekend. The one note, I would give to Opa has just come clean about it. Miss Amy, my mom. He did. He came clean. Before?

Well, when I came out to Charon, I was like, Charles, where's my chocolate donut? Yeah. She's like, it should be in the bag. And Opa's like, oh, I ate it on that. He might have said on an accident. I can't remember. That's apologizing because you got caught, not because you did it. You know what I mean?

You slice son of a bitch, Oprah. My mom has come in town twice. You know those little value packs of the vanilla and chocolate ice cream? Yeah. the bluebell. Yeah. She's completely gutted us twice when she's come in town and apologize profusely about it. I'm not a sweet tooth.

So it doesn't affect me. I'm not worried about it. Right. Jill wasn't worried about it because Ms. Amy's like, hey, I'm going to buy you more ice cream. You never worried about it until you're going to the freezer to get some ice cream

and it's all gone. And you're like, honey, what happened to the ice cream? It's like, oh, yeah, my mom was in town. And so, you know, I bet your mom made it. I bet her. ass did eat it. If for any listeners

of the pod, they're probably sitting there thinking, oh, Reese's peanut buttercup, Valentine's Day, four times heart box, Miss Amy? I was going to say, like, are we talking about the same mom that ate... Is that the same mom... That ate your Reese's over and over and over. Yeah. Apologize profusely, but continued to eat it over and over and over. And again, maybe I've grown

callous and numb to it at this point, because I'm used to that behavior and it deterred me from having a sweet tooth. Maybe a good thing. But I did get some follow-up phone calls from Miss Amy, buying ice cream for us to like replenish. I should just randomly text Oprah right now. Like we don't, it's not like we're texting

all the time. But you send them just a random text. I can't believe you ate my chocolate donut. We're usually just talking like if somebody's out of town or something to work at the house, so you know you're kind of having that exchange and back and forth. So you have a I'm sending it right now. You have a

joking relationship with your father? Yes. Okay, yes, yes. Like, I'm not mad per se. No. But I felt some type of way about that particular situation. Yeah. I'm like, hey, I, listen, I love you.

I know you got a sweet tooth. But we got to have some awareness and ask a couple questions, especially if you say you look in a donut bag and say they're all glaze. Yeah. Or say they're all the same kind. And you grab one or two.

You know you're just, grabbing part of the flock. Yeah. But you see one solo chocolate covered donut in there. Oh, that might be there for a reason. Somebody of might have specifically ordered that. That's all I'm asking.

Yeah. It's all I'm asking. And no for dads, I think a dad hack unlocked in that moment is just get a little paper towel action. Go ahead and snag that will and hide it. I know it's your house. You don't need to be hiding in your house. Yeah.

What are we talking about? What are we talking about? But we're out numbers. We're outnumbered. The girls are going to be growing up. Stuff's going to be vanishing. And maybe you've got to fight for yourself a little bit. Yeah.

I see what you're saying there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. To me, I would think of that dad hack of more of a, with your kids. Because they're not, they're not grown adults. That was for kids. We're talking about mature adults. Yeah, we're talking about father-in-laws. Yeah.

Yeah, yeah. We're talking about father-in-laws here. We're not even talking about a game. We're talking about practice. with father-in-laws. Well, that sounds like a fantastic weekend. I had an incredible weekend. Incredible weekend.

I had a lot of fun stuff. I did have my APR that I thought we could go over. APR, dad brain. I forgot my APR. No, you're fine. Go ahead. Hit your. And this is just our after pod report.

I got some notes from Wi-Fi this weekend. Yeah. Got some notes from Wi-Fi. one, we're moving. Oh, you're moving. I'm moving. I thought you were talking about, hey, you're talking about continuing to rent

or maybe you buy the house. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or pour into it and no, we're... Rehabilitate the house. Great news. We're moving. My wife broke the great news to me that we're done with this rent house.

We're looking for a new rent house. Our lease is up in June. So it's perfect timing here in March. Just started looking for some new houses. I'm very excited. excited. So your tone and your body language is telling me this is the vibe I'm getting. You're saying, we're moving. Like you're all happy. Yeah. Happy go lucky. My wife said we're moving. I'm feeling that you just got told that you're moving. I certainly got told by my wonderful, beautiful wife that

we're moving. Yeah. You didn't miss anything. But some of the audience, might be thinking, all right, was this a team? Was this a team ever? Like, you guys are both wanting to move or it's just all of a sudden something happened. We're getting out of this. I don't think when it's a great idea like that, I don't think there needs to be a whole lot of like discussion. I think she had a great idea. And we're going with it. Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. How did it happen? How did this come to be? I got a text of some mouse poop on the kitchen counter. And it falls up by a text of we're moving, which was phenomenal news.

I was very excited. How did you respond? You say, oh, yay. I said, great. When? You know what? Let me get on Zillow. And then she beat me to it and started sending me Zillow stuff of the new houses that we'll be moving into, which is great. Oh, she already did the work. Yeah. Yeah.

And some of these houses are up to 35, 45 minutes away, so I'll have a lot of time on the road, self-reflection. 35, 45 minutes away. Like right now you're a couple minutes away from the shop. Yeah. A little too close, though, if you ask me. A little too close. You could walk each day if you want to do.

I know, but why do that? Why run to work like Dan Gable when you can drive 35 to 45 minutes? But I'm very excited for that. I can tell. Yeah, I can tell. She's segue too. She's thinking a lot about child number two, maybe potentially trying for child number two,

which I think is another great idea from the wifie because we didn't have any plans to like wait or anything like that, like any type of agreed on schedule or anything. So we'll try for baby number two and then hopefully she, what I'm aiming for is she's pregnant during the move would be ideal.

Third trimester. It may be nesting stage, maybe like late second trimester when the anxiety is like at its peak. Yeah. We'll try and time it out. When their hormones have been completely hijacked, that's the time to move. That's the time to move.

But hey, baby number two, new house. Baby number two and new house. Homeowner. Yep. Sherman, what are you going to do about the mice? Don't worry, I caught it. I did take a picture this morning, but then I was like, that's a little, it's a little gruesome to show on the pod. But long live the king.

I'm the king of my domicile yet again. The mouse has been defeated. that's this morning. That's hot off the press. Back to APR, though, I got another great note from my wife that I need to work on the three P's. Sherman, what are the three P's?

The three P's are Pupes, poop, and pee. And Jill made a great, she made a fantastic note that whenever Pupes, poop and pee. I'm thinking this is scarlet, but then you say pubes so that I'm not thinking. It's not our eight-month-old.

So I'm like, oh, that must, yeah, that must be, she's talking to me. But whenever Jill goes to the bathroom, there's always one of those three peas, like just a little hint of it. Maybe sometimes there's a hint of two of them and God forbid three. So I'm working on my, she calls it house hygiene. She said I have great hygiene, body hygiene, but I need to work on my house hygiene. And so we're working on getting the three peas taken care of. Okay. I have questions.

I don't know if you guys have questions. Yeah, please go ahead. Poop, pee, and pubs. Yeah, yeah. So you're telling me that wifey, whenever she's going to the bathroom that you guys use together. Yeah. Or the guest room or the guest room bathroom.

There's always one of those three. A little hint that is still around the toilet. Yes, sir. I can wrap my head around. pubes out of the three. Like a couple strays. You're trimming up, you're grooming. Yeah.

You're trying to make it nicey for wifie. Yeah. Poop and pee. Yeah, you get a streak here. You get a holding scarlet while peeing there. And you chalk it up. I need to tighten the screws. I need to tighten the screws.

You don't sound like a cat, like me. Whenever I get done going to the bathroom, I'm always somebody who just checks. I check the rim. Yep. If I have a blowout. God forbid. God forbid, I have a blowout.

The back of the bowl, up underneath the seat, I always lift and kind of see what's going on. Because I'm personally like, I'd be siding with Jill on this one. Oh, certainly. You remember that note that you gave on my first news of the moving? And you're like, you look this way, but you sound this way. remind me look this way but sound this one when i when i was uh jokingly excited about moving oh yeah

yeah yeah yeah okay just a few minutes ago just a few minutes ago this one's actually a good note this one's actually a good note that i should work on oh on the apr this is feedback you've gotten and you're like yeah that's a good note you know what you're right and and the in the note i told myself and maybe this could help a dad out there is um when i'm at work or i am at someone's house, someone else's house, and I go to the bathroom, I do have like a very OCD nature about myself of, I do not want to be, because I also have the reputation around here of, oh, Sherman blows it up. Sherman blows it up.

Yeah, when, when DECAT went yesterday and he had to go, all he was trying to do is find the plunger. But in that time of finding the plunger, somebody came in there, is like, oh, who didn't flush the toilet? What the fuck? But everybody's immediate reaction was, Who do you think it was? I bet it was Sherim.

Oh. And they would have, like, yeah, there's no notes there. Now, do I leave my stuff around? Absolutely not. Do I blow it up for sure? But now I need to get in the mental mind space of, hey, when I'm pooping and peeing at my house, I'm actually at somebody else's house.

Yeah, because if there was poop pee or pubs in the guest bathroom, and I knew you just used it. You'd think I'm a psychopath. I would never get an invite back. No, no, no, you'd get invited back. But there'd be a nice, we'd have a nice laugh. Maybe a tweet? Yeah, just, yeah, yeah.

Maybe a walk and talk. I'm walking, talk and laugh a little bit. Hey, Opa, Sherman. Come here. Hey, come here for a person. You just used the toilet? Yeah, I thought so. Hey, let's go take a walk.

As you're flipping the stakes from the grill. Hey, Sherman, did you use the guest room 45 minutes ago? Yeah? Yeah. Yeah, I thought so. Put your hand over this grill. Yeah, you like, you feel how hot that is? Imagine your face on it.

Sherman, do you know how to test the internal temperature of a steak without even touching it? Give me your hand. Put your pointer finger and your thumb together. Feel that? Squeeze that. That's medium rare. Nice dad hack right there. Nice grill hack.

You get all the way to the pinky? Yeah. That's well done. Tell the dads, tell any new young dads out there that might not be savvy on the grill what you're talking about. I believe medium. We'll work on this together. Yeah. Because I've got to work through it too.

I don't think it's rare, medium, rare, medium, well done. Pointer finger rare. Yeah, this is rare. Second finger, middle, medium rare. Medium rare. Medium. Medium. Well, another good thing for medium rare when the juices start to come out of the steak.

That's a good, very, very good, tail-tale sign. that you have a medium rare steak. Yes. Yeah. Great call there, chef. His nickname isn't chef for no reason. It's literally chef. But that right there, rare.

Yep. Index finger, middle finger. Medium rare. Medium rare. Boom. Medium. Pinky is well done. Yes.

And so you're grabbing and you feel the toughness on this little pad right here on your thumb, that's what you should be feeling if you grab the steak. Unless it's a fillet, then if it's a flay, you need to be, it's going to be a little more tender, you need to be a little more careful on using the touch. I would go much more in a look for the juices to rise. Yeah, just a small thing. But if you don't have that foundational education,

you shouldn't be getting around to filet. In my opinion. Probably not. You're going to fillet, you know a thing or two about some steaks. And as you have me leaned over the grill, you get to well done, you go, and that's what you're going to be. If my fucking guest bath ever has another

peop on it again. You put a little shit stain you're going to be well done good APR good feedback for your wife I'm glad you communicated that way yes communication's key will so I had a couple of APR

dad brain moments last week pretty much immediately within the hour of the episode releasing oh not an hour within the first two hours of the episode releasing last week yeah I got a I got a phone call it wasn't just feedback through a text

it was a phone call. Yeah. And the first question was, because what we do last week, we celebrated Scotty turning six months old. I forget if I said it the day you're listening or if it was the day we were recording the 10th or 11th. It was six months, right?

Six months. Okay. I'm just helping you. I thought it was not. Wife calls me, and first thing he said, I'm a, hey, sweetheart. She goes,

do you know your daughter's birthday? Oh. And I was like, uh, um. Which daughter? Yeah, I was like, oh, shit, I got that wrong, didn't I? She's like, how do you not know?

You're like, you only have two kids. And they're young. It's early. It's not like they're grown up. And you kind of forget when their birthday could be. How do you forget when Scotty's birthday is? Oh, sweetheart. It ain't even like that.

Like, in my brain, it's like a waterfall system. Rue is April 3rd, 2022. So 432. And then with Scotty, I go 11, I think it's 1110. but I need to flip it. Roo is descending. Scotty is ascending. So Scotty turned six months on November 12th.

Okay. March 12th. Great. Not March 10th. I forget. Look, dad brain, I forget what I even said. Wait, hold on. Hold on.

The 12th. Okay, the 12th is the correct. November 12th is her birthday, is her day of birth. March 12th. But March 12th is when she turned 16 months old. 16 months old? I just confused everybody because I think I said, And I was like, she was really good at dinner for a six-month-old.

And I just was, that's why I asked you six. And you looked back at me and said, yes, six. Dad-brain. Dad-brain. Dad-brain. Dad-bra. MP-6 APR report. I got to be completely honest.

After everything you just went over, I do not know after everything that you just said what your daughter's birthday is or how old she is. Scotty is 16 months old. She turned 16 months old on March 12. Okay. Her birthday. Yeah. Her day of birth.

When she came into this world. Yeah. And dad and mama were smiling at her. Yeah. That was on November 12th. Okay. So I got the day off. APR number two, this is an interesting one.

Because we open up every episode. I hope your trash is taking out. Big Trash Day guy. We are in a new house. So we're in a new area. We're in a new environment. Oh, I forgot about this. I missed trash a couple.

We are a few weeks ago listening now. And I know this mailman's out there, listen, he's a PT sicko. But you know how a few weeks ago, I stood in solidarity with a gentleman who called in and said, I forgot to take out the trash. Like, fuck me. Yeah. So I stood in solidarity with him like the next time I had to take out trash. I stood in solidarity.

I forgot to take out the trash, but I stood in solidarity. Yeah. Shortest voicemail before the dad's history. Yeah. Yeah. So the next week, I take out the trash. Remember I did a little walk-and-talk videos. I'm walking down to the driveway.

It was kind of nighttime out. Yeah. Walk the trash bins out. Trash is taken out. Yeah. So that trash day happens. The next week, my wife takes out the trash. This is, we are now at last week when I'm getting this APR report.

Yeah. Because trash day for us is on Wednesdays. Episode drops on Wednesdays. Mailman comes on Wednesday. Mailman comes every day. But he comes on Wednesday. He comes on Wednesdays. He comes up to the door.

Yeah. Because your mailbox is at your door. Well, it's at the street. Down at the bottom of the driveway. He comes up to the door, and I couldn't butcher the details here. But essentially, Knox, Charo answers, and he delivers our mail. So he knows, when he sees, he sees old Willie One Shuff on there. Yeah.

He's a PT-Sixer. He's a PT-Sicco. Yeah. And he goes, I can tell your husband, I can tell your husband is having trouble setting up the trash outside. And he goes, basically, you know how I knew that you did it today? Oh, my God. Because I didn't do it last week either. My wife did it.

Because you texted me something about the trash. I'm like, that's why we're a team, baby. And he goes. because I knew it was your husband because when he put out the trash bins, he had them both right next to each other touching, which is a no-no if you wanted them to be able to lift the bins up and put them in the trash show. It's a good note.

It's a good note. need to separate them for a few inches, whatever it is. And this is the mailman. This is not the trash man giving game, right? to put the mail into where he's got to come up to the door. He's like, but just wanted to give that note, I knew it was you today because everything was placed perfectly at the end of the driveway. So I have some work to do. Shout out the mailman.

That runs through our area. He's a PT sicko. Yes, he is. He's looking out for his boy. Does he have a first name? Do we want to shout out his first name? Oh, okay. I don't know.

I don't know if he gave it to Charo. We'll get on that basis. If he gave it to Charon, Charo didn't tell me his first name. Maybe I need to keep an eye on the mailman at home. My dream when you initially told the very brief story because you didn't want to spoil it for the pod, my dream is that your mailman is a guest on for the dads eventually one day. Buddy, I've been having these thoughts on guests because I know people love when we have, we've only had Taylor on, but I know people would love to hear from other guests.

We do want to do that. We thought it was very, we love the whole, the community, the language, everything. that we're doing on for the dads. It's a lot of fun. We've also been in talks for months now about having a guest list. Yeah. We don't want it to go consecutive guests rolling out week after week after week to where it becomes a guest-centric show. But when we do have guests on, like, who are the guests going to be?

We want Chicago Cubs. Anthony Rizzo. We want Rizzo. We want Dan Gable. We love of Greg Olson. Greg Olson. Sal Fricela. Yep.

He's the first firm guy. Luke Combs or Matt Staff. Matt Staff or Luke Combs. Like these are Bob Odenkirk. Yeah, these are bigger. Yes, bro. He would be phenomenal. We'd love that way to ring.

Any dad that I've seen doing podcasts to where it's like a dad clip for content, I love people who want to just talk dad life. Get them. However, another part of me was like the mailman. There's a cat. There's a, there's a, there's a, there's a PT-Sixer. Yeah. that operates this flower farm we went to over the weekend.

Yeah. And you can pull up the Instagram so that way the photo, the screenshot can be on the screen because it's not coming to mind. Farmer Sean. Yeah. But just salt of the earth. Dads. I could not agree more.

I want some dads on here. Yeah, some dads. I don't want some. It's a dad show. It doesn't have to be some name of some status. No. A sicko that's out there that we sit there and communicate with all. all the time that writes in that does all these things.

Like we'd love to have just dads. Yes. On the pod. No one you just named fits this category. I just want to throw that out there. But like we're, we don't want like pretty, perfect picture of dad for every single guess.

We want some dads. Yeah. I want a guy in the trenches. It's got a little blood and a little dirt on his face. Because he's got four under four at home. And he's just got. some good stories. Like, we're not out here chasing numbers.

We do encourage everybody to subscribe. If you haven't subscribed, please make sure you subscribe, follow on all of our audio channels. But it's not like when we look at guests, we don't want to just chase what numbers could be. Yeah. We just want some good old-fashioned dad convos where dads come in, have an olipop with us.

And they're co-hosting the show with us. They're not, we're not sitting here and they're sitting on the other side and we're interviewing them. It's like how Taylor ran it where he was a co-host, a guest host of For the Dad. Yeah. I think that would be awesome. I want some guys that they, deep grunt when they get up out of a chair.

Yeah. Any question you asked them, no matter how easy to answer, there's always a ball cap off and scratch the head and go, oh, shit. I mean. Yeah. You know what? Let me call my wife and make sure the story's right.

Yeah. Let me. Hey, what did you do this weekend? Oh, shit. I mean, whatever, whatever my wife told me to you. I just shut my mouth. Yeah. I go where she wants to.

Also, I just unlocked a memory from yesterday because I tried to block it out. We're talking about APR. Got a nice little phone call for my wife that I love. I love you, Jilly Bean, around 515. No, no, it was 526.

It was 526. And she said, are you still at the office? I say, I sure am. we had a late recording. She said, who's picking up Scarlett? I said, that's a great note, honey. I'll go do that.

I'll go pick up our daughter. Great question. Great question. Because, oh, yeah, Monday, Wednesday, Friday is my day as I go pick up our daughter. And if I don't do it before 6 o'clock, we get hit with the fee. That was a great note by my wife. Forgot to go pick up Scarlet. I did get there before 6, though.

5.58. If not, you get a fee, you just, you just, you just, Tell him. Charge it to the for the day. Put it on the dead. Put it on the dead. Yeah. Yeah.

And yes. Also, future, future note, I was not being held at gunpoint here at the office. That was more so. We just had a late recording day. And I like literally forgot. And dude. That happens to me because we were doing George Kittle. Yes, it was George Kittle.

And it's like, this is a huge pod. This is fun. It ran late because it ran late. Like it wasn't like bad. Right. Right. When Luke Combs was on, I had to skiddle. I was like, hey, I hate to do this. I have to leave.

Yeah. So I got to get home by a certain time. And I was running late. And I'm sitting there texting. That's when I was Venmoing. My name. Just Venmoter $100. Yeah.

I'm sorry. Put on the death. Yeah. And yeah, that was a bone-chilling phone call. Jill actually went very easy on me. But, yeah. At the hospital, she cannot leave. Like there's actual like rules and parameters around that

leaving during a shift. So it's literally up to me. And that's how we wanted though, Papa Team 6. That's how we wanted. Good. Yes. But that phone call was so funny, dude. I've heard just, who's picking up our daughter?

Good question. Great question. I think it's me today. It is you today. Good. I forgot. And even better APR. We had a fantastic episode last week where we talked about steak and blow

job day. Yeah. Multiple times. Found out from our lovely women at daycare and shout out Miss Angela and Miss Crystal because they're great. Miss Crystal found our podcast last week. When she was on Spotify. The first episode she consumed before the dads,

your daycare lady found for the dads last week. Yeah. When we were promoing March 14th. Yeah. Nice. It's a great. great combo with her. It's fantastic.

I said, how did you? I'm legitimately kind of curious, how did you come across it on Spotify? And she was like, it was on my suggested. And there was a picture of you, and I was like, what in the world? And y'all just, I think I know that guy.

Y'all just released this episode. What'd you think? And so click it. Oh, there go. Oh, dude. When was it? When was that? Oh, on Thursday.

Oh. good. Yeah. So was it last week's episode or a different one got suggested? Oh, good. Yeah, y'all were like super excited about stuff. Y'all, you're like, it seemed funny. Like, it seemed cool.

I was like, yeah. Good. It kind of is. Yeah. Grab Scarlet as fast as I could and was out of there. That's a tough spot to be in. Yeah. Especially any new listener that came in last week.

Yeah. Interesting one to come. Fun. I hope you all laughed and had a great time. How they, do we want to recap really quick before we get into all this stuff? Do you want to touch on your March 14th? Because I saw the steaks that you cooked. I'm saying plural. You cooked enough to feed an army. You had an army at your house. Yeah. So you came through with the steaks. How to how was steak day was a plus. Steak day was a plus. Steak day? Yeah. Buddy, I'm not. I'm not even going to sit here and act and pretend. Steak Day was good for me too. Steak Day was good for me too. I thought it was a joke. I mean, it is a joke, but...

But... I don't know. I just cook up this steak, and then, you know, we're watching the movie, and then the movie ends, and then the lights are off, and I'm sitting there. I'm like, okay, she's really milking it now. She's really milking it now. Did you have a great day today today?

Yeah. I did. It feels incomplete. I did have a good day. It's about to get better. I don't know. We're about to go to bed. Yeah.

We are. Let's just say. Fluff the sheet just a little bit. Let's just say it ended. And I had my mouth tape on and I was just facing, I was facing Waffle. And Waffle, the Bulldog, just in the corner. We tried.

Hey, we had fun. We did our best and we had fun. You guys got people. That's what I'm saying. Just so you know. I still think we impacted. You championed a lot of people's lives that day that we got emails and comments about. Good.

You did the Lord's work. We impacted others. I'm being so serious because like this is a joke, but that did. Thank you. for that silver lining, because if anybody did get their pipe smoke, via FD, hell yeah.

Hell yeah. I wanted to do like videos on it. I was like prepping my steak and I want to do a video of how to prep the meat. We're joking. We're joking. Your post though. Got a marinated. Will did.

I don't know the name and this is not a bit. But while going through the four that Ed's phone, your post did get reposted and shared to the story. of a female movie star of that category who then championed it I'll see if I can find it I did not recognize the name off first gas

but there was a story attachment of your post into a porn star's Instagram story who was saying well I guess it is official I was thinking like Hollywood movie star that's a different part of Hollywood

it's like a different angle of Hollywood yeah they make shows I legitimately I legitimately is going to be like, dude, we got to find out. I got to. Oh my God, maybe it's like Anaday Armist or something.

The fun thing is. And Zendaya's for the boys? I don't see you. I go sit there. I did see that the post had way more shares than it did likes. Just the secret work was being done. Some absolute goon-Beret demons.

The Goon-Berays and Seaman Team 6s were on that. They're like, finally, these guys just sit there and cry. And they're like, oh, I love my game, my kid, oh, my God. Just for reference, the post has, I mean, it did well. It has 163K views. Okay. 4,000 likes, 31 comments, 43 repost, 12,000 cents. Oh, good.

Oh, good. We made an impact. So that's how my March 14th We have daughters We have wives And we think women are absolutely Incredible We do

And we celebrate them We do celebrate them Into the 12 point 12.6 Hey I'll tell you this We ain't running on April 14th We're holding the line

Buddy If you think PT6 is going to retreat On April 14th If it didn't happen for you, April 14th is a time to show the example of what the celebration looks like. Show them what March 14th's all about. And hopefully most of our house will be boxed up by then. That'll be perfect.

Yeah, I hope you're. No, no, no, no. I hope you extend your lease and Jill is pushing third trimester. And then that's when you decide to move. I think that's optimal. Yeah, that's optimal. Moving when your wife is going on in a third trimester. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So we'll just be celebrating the news of... I hope that your closing date and due date are the exact same day. Ooh, that would be good. Yeah. That would be good. Yeah, we got to find a way to time that out. Go month to month. Should we shout out some comments?

Got a lot of comments. We got to get through. We have a lot. That we get to do. Not get through. That we get to do. What am I fucking talking about? Do we want to hit our recon,

Ooh, let's go, Jordan. Listening to the new episode in the hospital as we just welcome in our little guy yesterday and have officially joined PT6. I also have an elite dad hack from our stay.

I ordered a product called the Dadpad. I really did not mean to do that. I only read the first portion of his. Are you being super serious? I swear to God, I only read. That was your transition. That's unreal. Great transition.

Like we said, we're idiots. So we stumble forward. We fall forward. That's peer luck. The dad bad, which is a sleeping bad, got to fit. Hospital couches, two nights in. And my new dad back is feeling good,

excited to take everything I've learned from this pod into dad life. Let's go, Jordan. Jordan, congratulations. Rue is turning four next month. And I said it on the recent episodes. I'm going to say it every week until she turns four. And I'm saying it.

It makes me sad. Dad, do it. But here's what I want to tell Jordan, the new dads, Lyle or Lyle's, enjoy every moment. Yeah, dude. It's going to be hard. It's going to suck a lot. Yep. But it is the greatest responsibility you can ever have in your life.

And enjoy every moment. And I'll break more of this down when Rue does turn four because I just, I like to reflect on, I like to reflect on all that stuff. Yeah. But they're here for us in this early phase, man. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're here for us to enjoy, to lay a foundation to five through eight, then nine through 15 and so on and so on. Yeah.

And there's a new iteration. We read that little lesson last week. There's a new iteration of your child. When it's that young, every day, then it's week to week. It's a new kid, a month a month. Don't think of it in terms of years, especially before, in those first two years. man, every month there's a different version of your kid.

Every month you have four weekends. Yeah. Four weekends. Yeah. To make the most of. In the first two years, two summers, two falls, two winters, two of each holiday. Dude, enjoy everything that you can. Soak it up.

As much as you can, man. Take a lot of photos and videos. Yes, because time flies. Lyle Stiles, a little spoiler for any. non-parents out there. Spoiler. At the eight-month mark, dude, I went back and looked at like first week videos and all that stuff. And I cried. You're just going to, Liles.

You're going to cry. Scotty, when she didn't have hair, those photos pop up on her little digital frame. Always a great gift to have, a great product to have around the house. It's one of those digital frames that kind of runs through your album. And you just look at it and I just see little Scotty Joe. She's 16 months. She's still our little baby. She's still our little baby. She's her youngest baby right now.

And you just see those old photos, bro. And it's such a reminder that everything is so fleeting. Yeah. Like we're having full conversations with Rue. Like her curiosity is off the charts. The thing she wants to do, she wants to operate more and more independently every day. She's a little girl. Yeah.

She's a little girl now. For sure. Yeah. She's getting heavier as I'm holding her. Yeah. Like I, the mortality of she's not going to want me to hold her soon. I don't know when that happens. Like I was going to Google it.

But if your parents out there will probably have their own stories or when they're, maybe their last time that they remember or what age it kind of stops happening. But I can just tell like as I pick her up, she's getting heavier. One day she's going to not want me to hold her.

And that day now is so much sooner than what I thought. And when I'm in the suck and you're thinking, fuck, she can't walk. I have to pick her up. Or she can't, you know, she can't stand up. Yeah. She's only crawling.

Or she can walk a little bit. I kind of got to be around it all the time. Let me just pick her up here. And it feels in those moments that it's like a nuisance that you're picking them up. Those moments are going to happen. Yeah. But just, dude, enjoyed as much as you can. And like our buddy said when he called in, when Taylor was on, like, fuck the people that say, wait until this.

Hey, just wait. Just wait. Dude. No. Be there now and fucking love it, bro. Can I show you a picture really quick that kind of ties into this? Yeah. I won't go into like a full-fledged story.

but we had our first big thunderstorm over, was it Monday night? Or no, it was Sunday night. Yeah, a couple nights ago. And dude, Scarlett was scared and she was crying and it was so cute, dude, the lightning would strike. Like you would see the lightning flash

and then you would just hear on the monitor. Yeah. And Jill was like, go get her, go get her. Or maybe she got her. I can't remember, but I took, chef, I sent it to you. I took that picture in the morning of what I woke up to, dude, and I was just like, God.

I love this, man. Because that's the best. Like, even when the storms happened, part of me the other night, was wondering if Scotty or Roo was going to wake up, and we'd have to get him to the bed because part of me kind of, like, loves it. Oh, I called them sleeping in the bed with us.

Because we don't do the bed a whole lot at this age. Yeah, we don't either. Yeah. We don't either. And just like sleeping independent. Like, that's the route we chose to go. Yeah. And so when we do sleepovers, everything else, like, I'm just obsessed when I got Rue in the bed.

Because they're obviously young. Like, even with Scotty now, we haven't done a sleepover or anything with Scotty because she's still operating, like, moving around. You get a little nervous. Obviously, the safe sleeping. Same. Yeah. Yeah. But I'm always excited.

Like, when Rue was coming up? I'm just like, hey, when can we start to where she's like sleeps on her bed? Like, I just want to cuddle him. Dude, the little, there was one point in the night, too, that she had. right hand hooked around mom's pinky and left hand hooked around dad's thumb. Just both of them up like this and just passed out, dude. And the little binkies going. Just the cutest way possible.

Dude, you just want to squish them. You want to suffocate them. You want to suffocate them. Like, yeah, the love that urges inside your body is almost like primal. where you're like, I could kill you. I love you so badly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And dude, she's starting to giggle to on the neck kisses.

I don't even do neck kisses, really. I just, with my tongue, just go like on her neck and just that little, oh, dude. Play it on repeat. Yeah. I just need a playlist. Make sure you get some recordings of that. Oh, whether it's voice recordings or video, buddy, buddy. Jill's on that game.

Jill's on that game. game. Um, God, dude. Be the dead ribs, man. Um, yeah. I, I, as... Hey, it's us, the Jonas brothers. And guess what? We have some big news. What's the news, new? Huge news.

Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there. But this one's extra special. So how did we, how do we actually come up with the name Hey Jonas, guys?

I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it. We were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band. Before Jonas Brothers was... This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast,

where people could call in and say, hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey, Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it.

As far as we kind of touched on our dad losses already, do we want to go into our favorite segment, Crack a Cold One? I do, before we get off the dad losses, I do have a dad loss here from Autism Miller. This is an email of a dad loss. Thank you all so much. I finally got my PT6 shirts. Second from the left, we do have a photo of the dads, Pt Sixers,

repping the Papa Team Six shirts again, bwtb.com. I have an amazing village now that I'm the last of our group to have a little one. I have a baby boy on the way and all the way on the left, him and his wife, are having twin boys shortly after me and my wife. I am blessed with my PT6 shirt. I had my pamper party on March 14th. And my friend group came through with plenty of diapers and gifts, and I'm super grateful.

This podcast has been a blessing for all four of us, and we're just having a great time supporting each other. Brothers for Life. Tommy is a girl dad with twin boys on the way. Austin, boy on the way. That's me. Darren, two girl dads, J.P. Girl Dad. I love you guys. Keep up the great work.

This was under the dad loss one. So it's dad loss and dad wins. You should have said dead win. And also it should just be Austin Miller. That is a typo. I apologize. Sherms, what does yours say? Dad loss or dad win?

Dad win covered by dad loss. I have a dad loss here. To that, I apologize. That's okay. It is Austin Miller. That is a typo. I want to put out an apology. Because, Will, you are Rod Burgundy.

You read the note about Skarskar after talking about the story of Skarskar. You read Autism Miller and stuff. of, instead of Austin, I'm sorry to you, Will. I just confidently, I saw it, and I'm like, hey, if that's his name. Austin, Austin, Eric, it makes you feel any better. I truly like. But it's not like one letter's spelled. It does say autism, Miller.

It does. And I thought I was reading the dad. We got a dad loss here. Read the dad loss. I'm like, it sounds like a pretty good story. He's got the boys together. They're all having kids. That's a dumb.

That's a crack of cold one. That's a crack. I, okay, really quick note for Derek. Just, Derek, come in. Hey, I'm sorry. I just. Derek, to put a nice piece of bread on the shit sandwich that is autism Miller. Bullshit.

Every time when I get in Dropbox, dude, and I go to the. voice mails every single time in my head. I'm like, I know they're going to be there. There's no question and they're all going to rip. And I just never questioned that. So I just wanted you to hear that. I had that thought this morning.

I'm sorry. No, you rip. You rip. I have a dad loss here. Well, it's an air and email. Willie Burgundy. Eric.

Willie, oh, Willie Burgundy. You put a Oh, the prompt. He'll fucking read it. Literally went. Oh, Scotty's birthday.

It was wrong. Okay, yeah, pass that one up. Who wrote that one in? Oh, there's no name on. I think that was just a reminder. Take sip of olipop. Oh, shit. Fellas, for the first time in my adult life,

I forgot to take out the trash. Oh. This is Aaron's first time. So first time offender. Let's see what he says. To make matters worse, It was also recycling week. Ours only comes and picks up every other week.

Bro, that's two weeks. Or what? Four weeks of recycling that. That's a month that he's going to have. He misses one. Yeah. Recycling is every other week. Yeah. He said biggest dad failed for me in recent memory.

But guess what he said at the end? Good. Good. So Aaron's style. You fuck up. Good. You get the feedback and you try to get better. Good.

Yeah. P.T. Sickos, M.T. Sickos, and Goombarets alike. Welcome to the one and only ad read that we are going to break away from the episode to talk to you about Olipop. They sent in these hats. We talked about a little bit on the show. They sent in Shirley Temps. We're talking about the OG mocktail, Shirley Temple. Okay. It's got the hiss. It's got the crack. Does it have the punch, which is a question you should never ask yourself before you take a sip of olipop because it's a given. It packs a punch every single sip, every single flavor. Ollipop knocked it out of the park with the Shirley Temple. It's been a minute since I've had the Shirley Temple. I've been sipping on some other flavors of late. And that sip may have just

brought me back. Guys, you can get a Shirley Temple. You can buy two. You can buy two cans of olipop, two cans of these Shirley Temple lollipops in store and olipop will pay you back for one. It works on any flavor at any retailer. So even this little Shirley Temple, you buy it in store, you then go to drinkollipop.com for more information for more information on getting that payback. Olipop is sold online at drinkollipop.com plus Amazon

and available in the soda. and with the chilled beverages at thousands of retailers nationwide, including Walmart and Target. Go drink some Oli Pop. And if they sell them, go get one of these hats. Because I honestly love it. And Oli Pop, thank you so much for sending these hats. These are really dope.

And they came at the perfect time because it is St. Patrick's today. And we got a little green going on. Back to the episode. Also, we mentioned it before. and I'm wearing a hat currently right now. You are. I love that hat. Oli Pop was kind enough to send our office. Some hatch. Jeff has one as well.

And crack a cold one. As always, brought to us by Alipop. We got some tasty treats here. Some tasty snacks. Absolutely. Prebiotic. And just listen to it, dude. And this is one of my favorites.

Orange cream. Willie, do you want to kick us off for crack a cold one? My crack a cold one, I was alluding to it. It was basically my rose of the weekend, sent out of dinner. It was my brother coming to town. Joy, bro. Joy was in my heart the whole time.

Can you break down just really quick? Is Wyatt more of your personality? I just see a little different from you. What is that brotherly relationship? We're different. Wyatt is just so easy to hang out with. Yeah. Not that, like, my dad and Cody aren't.

they are as well. But Wyatt, him just being the youngest, I guess. I don't know. I feel like he, uh... He's got that air about him, that entertainment. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, we both, we always have, like, good conversations. I'm never nervous to ask him any question about, like, what's going on.

I always feel like I'm trying to give him advice, but I'm also trying to keep myself from giving too much advice. You know what I mean? Because I care about him. And, um, he's just easy to be around. I don't know. Yeah. I feel like everybody in my family would say that about Wyatt.

Like he's just, he's easy to go with the flow. Yeah. He loves anything like that he's involved with and he's doing. He like loves what he does. Now that he's the head football coach of North County, I can tell he takes a lot of great pride in being the head coach of North County. Like he's very excited. And me like I'm like, you know, trying to get in the weeds of like,

what are you thinking? Like, do you have a plan? What's the vision? Like, you're still big brother. I'm still like big bro. and I'll feel myself when I'm being too much of big bro. Yeah. And then just like watching them around my girls,

like around my daughters. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like operating with the family, um, conversations that me, trial, him and Morgan will sit there late and I.

Like we were playing games one night where we were playing clue and code names. We're having conversations because they're both teachers. We're asking about like the school system and how it is now. Like what are the kids like? All the drama that goes on in their world, the school and teaching. Just easy to be around, man. And again, I don't see them often.

Yeah. Like, it always feels like we're all connected because I know Wyatt. Like, Wyatt watches this show. Shout out Wyatt, who is listening to this show right now. Come on, Wyatt. And he's even said, like, this has become, like, his favorite show to listen to in the bus and verse and even all of the other pods that he listens to. He loves watching this one or listening to this one. Can I speak to Wyatt really quickly?

Speak to him. Wyatt, I do want to apologize when Jill, and I put Scarlett down for her morning nap. We also, we call it Rewrack. Like you put yourself back in the oven. We got back in bed and took a morning nap as well. And I missed Will's invite to join y'all at the farmer's market. Oh, I think yours was Dos Santos, the breakfast.

Oh, I just know what I'm going over in that neck of the woods. I'm just thinking like, he would have been there, though, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I apologize. I very much would have loved to meet you and give him hell. this first season. White's a stud, bro. He's going to rock it.

Good soul. Just love him. Yeah. The more Comptons I meet, the better. Yeah. And like your childhood friends and stuff, like Nick, Rips. Rips.

You know Nick's listening right now. He's a sicko. He is. But yeah, because I shot him all a message. My dad and my brother's in a group chat because I want to get them out to the house. I want to get him out to see the new spot. We haven't seen each other like we didn't do Christmas because if you've listened to this show throughout,

since the incubation of it. Yep. We had to cancel Christmas with them because everybody basically got the flu. Mega sick. Yeah, megasic. So we did Christmas presents. But it was fun to see them

because I just, I feel like I don't get to see them often. And what I was saying is, it feels like we're all tied to each other all the time because they might consume, they consume what I do on social media. They consume the podcast and everything else. Yeah.

But as far as like getting on the phone, checking in, having like, deeper conversations, we don't get to do that often. Yeah. And knowing how. how fragile life is and knowing how quick time moves, it's just like when he's there, the perspective I'm starting to have watching him engage with the family

and be at the house. And all of that is like a, it's like a special moment. Yeah, dude. And you're building a family. Yeah. He is the uncle to your kids. Yeah.

And he operates like a great uncle. Like when he's, he's going around the flower farm with Rue is him, Morgan, and Rue, going around the flower farm. And I'm kind of watching him, snapping photos and everything. everything else, but I'm with mom and Scotty, because we had our own bucket and just seeing Wyatt

help her and teach her how to use the, like the cutters, like the scissors to cut the stems at the bottom. And then at the end, Rue's operating all of it. She's cutting all the stems. It's just a wide mixture, range of flowers in this bucket. Yeah. And White, he's like a craftsman. Like, he can build things. He can do a lot of stuff working on the house. He can do a lot of that stuff. And in my brain, I start thinking, I didn't tell Wyatt this, but I'm like, wouldn't it be cool if every year there's almost an annual thing that happens to where he helps Rue build something that like Wyatt brainstorms or thinks up. Yeah. Like the way

my grandpa would do with us, like when he's building us a doghouse or that rifle that was a wooden rifle or something. Yeah. Something new to tinker with to where we're out in the garage around him. I'm envisioning like why it would be that uncle. Yeah. To where Rue knows and why it comes. Like they're going to do something in the craft's world. Yeah. I'm very close with my mom's sister. my aunt Arden or Auntie Arlou

Yeah and yeah dude Every single year Thanksgiving Is always with Auntie Arlou Every single year And that yeah It just cemented that relationship And she calls us her fuse Sure yeah yeah yeah

Yeah and she always Secretly tells Jordan and myself But behind each other's back That we're her favorite few Of course Of course Um But dude

I love that and I love the dynamic of the siblings and like Ruth's probably looking at Wyatt and going, he kind of looks like my dad. He kind of acts like my dad. Like I really like this guy. And Scarlett, when she was much younger when Jordan and my dad came out to see us and I don't know how many weeks old she was, but she was young. She would really only kind of react to Jill and I's faces. And then Jordan, because he had a beard and a hat on when he had. Calder at that pumpkin patch that we love was that.

Gentry Farms. Yeah. Shout out, no free shout out. Gave the biggest smile to my brother. And she probably totally thought, oh, I'm a,

that's dada. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or there's something familiar. Or something familiar. This feels safe. Yeah,

this feels safe. Dude, it's so funny because Rue was, when we were down in the living room, one of the days, she was on the us looking similar. Uh-huh. And I'm like,

yeah, that's my brother. Yeah. It's my brother Wyatt. So you're trying to break down your little toddler because, you know, as parents, when you remember it now when you're coming up, but when they're getting on you about something, they're like, I was your age once, but you can never just picture because they are your parents.

Yes. So you never put them in the world like, okay, I doubt you're going through what I went through. Yeah. And so I'm trying to break down the room. I'm like, Wyatt and dad, dad, like, we were brothers. Like, we were small just like you. So when you were going to be six, that's when Wyatt was born. So like the way you and Scotty are our sisters,

like Wyatt was my baby brother, the same way that Scott is your baby sister. And we were little just like you guys, growing up and everything else. So him being my brother, that is why he is your uncle Wyatt. Yeah. And she'll be like, can you, hey, dad, dad, let me tell you something.

I'm like, okay, tell me. And she's like, can you look at Wyatt and say, hi, brother Wyatt? And I'm like, sure. I'm like, hi, brother Wyatt. and he's like, hello. And I look and ruin him like, did that do it?

Yeah, did that fire you up? Yeah. Will, on the, on the, oh man, the pod yesterday when you were talking about him taking the head football coaching job.

Yeah. And you were kind of giving your whole speech and telling him like, you got to get into it. And Taylor asked you and goes, what was his response? And you said he just went, yeah,

I mean, I hope we win. Yeah, that'd be awesome. That made me laugh. so hard and that was one of the most relatable I just immediately went yeah if I was same combo with my brother exact same would have

exact same way yeah and I I hope so I'm like are you excited yeah yeah I just yeah I guess it's like that dynamic is there no matter what like he's not gonna show like he's not like he's gonna walk through all of his car it's like there's just the the brother dynamic that's happening in real time yeah yeah be awesome yeah are you pumped

you like you excited yeah I like yeah I I just know what a coach will is. Even this morning with chef of you being like, chef, hey, pick, pick Jared's brain. You can learn a lot from Jared. And there was a moment that I thought laughing super hard when you asked me,

because you have these like coachisms that literally remind me of my middle school and high school coaches when I was at your house and you broke something down for me that was like lengthy. It wasn't like a monologue, but it was lengthy. And at the end of it, you looked at me and you were cutting tangerines for Scotty, and you go, so tell me what you heard. He said, like summarize it or verbatim?

And you go, just what you heard. Go, okay. In my head, I'm like, dude, I am in my eighth grade locker room right now and Coach Scott's like going over at film with me. Because when you give them something, what you need if you're, whether you're teaching somebody or anything else, you want them to be able to regurgitate it back to you.

Because you want to know, too, am I being clear? Like, I could be, like, I can be long-winded. I can go all over the map, which I know I'll be as a parent. But it's like you want them to recite it back to you. Number one, you want to know if they're listening and paying attention. But also trying to get feedback on, did I explain that clearly? In the future, should I give this advice to Sherman? Is he even receptive to this when I give advice to them?

Yeah. No, I, there was no, like, I loved it. Yeah, I, I love that world of. I just envisioned head coach Wyatt now, who is that to a lot of kids. And now older brother Will is doing that to him. And it just makes me giggled. Because he'll tell me how he's got great trust. He's, because he's a younger coach. Yeah.

He's got great relationships with guys. And I'm sitting there and I'm nod. And I'm thinking of my head, you don't want that to be a point to where they can advantage because you're so close with them and I'm from my response be friends and I'm yeah yeah I don't like you got to be hard on them yeah I'm telling you right now you got to be tough on it's good that you have trust and great relationships with your team and they they love you probably because you're fun and all these things but you got to be fucking you got to be able to crack the whip why I don't want them showing the little cutsy snapchats that they're sending to each other with

the tic-tok dances yeah you shouldn't be laughing with them if they're showing you something on their phone unless it's an inappropriate time and place. They talk about Doja Cat, you ask who's that. I don't care if you even know who Doja Cat is. You say, who the hell is that? You just think of all the coaches and the mentors and leaders who have been hard on you in the past. And you look back now, like Bo Polini comes to my mind.

Yeah. And you look back now or my dad, you look back now and you appreciate them being hard on you. You feel like some things could have been. been explained in a better way to where you get on the same page. Like Bo made a comment when we were on busing. He's like, I knew I could be hard on you because you'd be receptive. And you would help me. If I'm hard on you, then it's showing that I can be hard on the others.

And I'm thinking, man, if I would have known that, if you would have told me kind of like, hey, I'm going to fucking rip your ass. But here's how we're kind of solving both things. Number one, I think you're very receptive to it. You respond well. And it helps me get on others' ass that is seeing if you're an exact. example. Yeah. And I'm thinking, dude, I, like, lived in my head. Like, yeah, I might have been receptive. Like, I'm always like, I want to please, I want to make you guys, like, I want to be as

good as I can. Yeah. And when you're ripping into my ass, like in my head, like, there'd be nice where I'm thinking I'm failing you. But if I knew that you're also trying to solve another problem with the team at large, then I would have known we would have been on a much different wavelength. But I still look back on all that stuff. And I'm like, okay, you just appreciate those people who were hard on you that could see farther down the road that you could see because we're very short-sighted as younger kids, younger athletes, whatever it is, to where you now have perspective being older. Yeah.

And I just think the same thing. Like with Wyatt, like, I was saying it on busson. I'm like, you are growing men. Like, they're in high school, but you want them to feel that you were hard on them. And then one day they respect you enough because you were hard on them because they're going to go out into the world and they might see a loosey-goosey structure or everything else. and then they think back, oh, this is why my coach was like this on me back in the day. Coach Compton would be pissed if he saw this operation like this.

And you're thinking these guys don't get it. Yeah, they don't get it. Coach Compton would be chewing their ass. Yeah. And it does make the out of boys that much better. When you do have that coach that never, not never gives out of boys, but, you know, in eighth grade we had that like drill sergeant coach. Alito is like a hardcore program

and I mean that dude was a snake and I only got one helmet hit after a touchdown and that was it but that meant dude when he hit the side of my helmet as I was coming to the sideline I was like yeah like he likes me it's like parenthood as well

it's like you want to be on a level with them where they trust you enough that they can talk to you about anything but there's also that dynamic of the you're not their friend yeah there's also the dynamic of respect that it's a respect. It's maybe like a healthy fear, but that respect of I trust the direction he's going to guide me. Yeah.

Versus like I'm scared to approach him because he is so hard on him. Yes, dude. Finding the balance of, hey, I don't want to do the wrong thing because I know that he wants the best for me and wants the right thing. Yeah. Not because I like, oh, here comes the ass chewing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Here's what I've been trying to avoid for the last couple months.

Yeah. That would be a fear I would have with my dad at times growing up because he was very hard on us. It was like a tough love. Like now our relationship is incredible. Yeah. Because we look back and I do feel so comfortable talking to him about a lot of these things.

Yeah. Or a lot of like shortcomings. Yeah. We can call them. But our relationship now is much different from when I was growing up because he was more like a, not like Dan Gable was this. way, but he was like a

he was hard on us. Yeah, sick of mindset. Yeah. Like don't be tiptoeing around the house or don't don't be heavy foot around the house. Yeah. You're not on your toes. You're not being that's not like, you know, fast or whatever. Yeah. It seems like you're lazy. That type of world. It'd be kind of like, it'd be like Friday night lights.

Yes. You drop the lamp. Yeah. Can't hold on a lamp. Can't hold them to football. At times, this wasn't all the time. My dad didn't abuse the shit out of us. That's a great scene, by the way. Yeah. We also just did another idiot segue, a perfect idiot segue, because my crack a cold one is being a coach at the first tea. Fall forward, man.

I know. This is a great conversation as far as my crack a cold one this week. I'm volunteering at first tea, which is a nonprofit golf thing. You basically give free golf lessons to kids in and around a community. Yeah. So I'm doing it here in Nashville. I just wanted something that would get my mind off of work, get my mind off of the house,

a little something for me, but that's also kind of giving back. And I'm very excited for it. But I have like the 10 to 12 year olds. So these kids are actual like, they can golf. And they're like little dudes, you know what I mean?

And you're going into just like volunteer? Yeah, volunteering as like a coach. But I'm so excited. I don't have like, dude, I'm like a 22, 24 hands. handicap. Like I'm not some stud golfer. There's some little things I could little nuggets here and there. But I am excited to see where that like mentorship or you know, whatever, because that's

part of the program too is they have all these pillars of like life lessons that the kids are being taught as well of, you know. I love that. Yeah. And I'm excited for it. But it's a good reminder too, of like you can't be too, you know, too much of friends with them from the standpoint, but also being able to be this guide and this friendly, like, you know, whatever in their life. It'll be fun, dude. I haven't done something like this in a long time. So I'm actually like really excited. I think you're going to get a lot of value out of it.

Yeah, dude. There's this cool philosophy on no matter what stage you're in, like having a mentor, somebody that is like, you know, third party, they're disconnected from your dated operating inside of your circle. Yes. But you have a mentor that you lean on. Yep. You have somebody that you're doing it with.

So it would be in our case, anybody at work that you were, say, say you have a workout buddy, an accountability buddy. Yeah. Somebody that you're doing things with. And then also somebody that you are, you are mentoring or giving back to that is the quote, unquote, below you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. To, like, kind of feed your soul.

Like those are like, that was like a, like a philosophy I was reading about and like, at Nebraska. And then I saw Rex Burkhead as like my equal, somebody that I looked up to, but you almost don't know that you're looking up to so-and-so. Like if I'm looking up to you or looking up to Derek or looking up to chef, like you guys don't know that I'm getting stuff

that you guys are adding value to my life and we're kind of doing this thing together. Yeah. Then I have a guy who I'll like lean on for any, you know, you have like different mentors, whether it's parenthood, business, work, relationships, spiritual, financial, anything, right? Yes, yes.

And then you have the one where you're giving back. So I love, dude, I love that you're doing that. I've desperately needed it. And it'll be a lot of fun and just to get to be outside. Do golf's such a fun sport? I just love the game of golf. I love if there's any sport where you can get away with it, it's golf of cheating.

Yeah. And like, just the... We were talking about that at this. zoo. Oh, really? Remember we were walking in talking about golf? Oh, but like committing to golf and then you and your boys go and do 18 holes, but it takes out, it carves out like all these hours on a weekday or a weekend day. Six hours, honey.

Yeah, so you know, you got the kids. Yeah, yeah, yeah. How is golf on it? It was so good. You're just getting drunk with the boys on the golf course. You're gone for like, how long would do 18 holes last? Oh, four, five, six. Yeah, I mean, yeah.

Really? It can last that long. Like, Daddy is crazy to me. If it's a packed day. and everybody's in foursums, yeah. Could be that long. It takes nuts. But yeah, to get to like teach those kids accountability

and like why you don't tell your friend that you got a birdie when you part it, you know? And like what that deeper meaning is and how that's applied to life of like doing the right thing when nobody's looking. And so I just think golf has, every sport has lessons in it, but golf has some particularly fun ones

with like, what are you doing when nobody's watching you? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And kind of any solo sport like tennis track, kind of that self-accountability, self-coaching, self-talk, self-speak of, hey, don't lose your cool because you missed a putt, you know? Guess what? Look up. There's a T-box right there.

There's another hole where you can go make that putt next time. We learned our mistake here. Let's go apply to this next. one. We're moving on. We're failing forward. We're going to grow from this. I love that dynamic too because then in time you're going to build trust with these kids that you're messing with into where you'll start getting to connect with them on deep. Like, hey, what's going on? Like what's going on? Oh, dude, for sure. What's going on in your life? For sure. I like that. A little moments of opportunities like that seem cool. And it means way more now

because Scarlett is so young and I know that like these times are quote unquote easier to be a dad in those ways and I really want to hone in those skills of the preteen like and so I'm really excited for that because I know that that's like an age where some of that can be difficult there can be some disconnect in the preteen ages and the teenager ages and like

I'm just excited for those reps. It feels like practice reps for my own daughter of communication, et cetera. I like that, man. It'll be fun. Love that for you. We just been riffing. We've been riffing. How are we on time?

Should we jump into some? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. We're not too bad. I am staring at a PT fit. Oh, yeah, yeah. We have PT Fit updates.

We have PT Fit updates. Fit updates. Lily Cuddy. Lily Cuddy on Spotify. I'm thinking we do a fundraiser for PT Fit where Charo leads a bar three class in Nashville, question mark, question mark. Oh.

That's a phenomenal idea. I did some bar three last Friday. Charo's 10 a.m. class. Yeah. Over off of the one, the one in Paddock off a white bridge. Yeah. Charles teaches a 10 a.m. class on Fridays.

That I might start frequenting more. I do feel like my body responds really well to it to where I'm like feeling good. Yeah. Because you know I've had a lot of low back issues, just a lot of wear and tear from playing football. Yeah. And it's, I hate to admit it. I would tell you. It's kind of nice.

Charles hearing this for the first time, but kind of nice. It's a kind of nice vibe. Because I'm taking many of water breaks. Like these women, there's a, there's a guy that walked in and she was like 30-something weeks pregnant. And she's, you know, there's all. always these modifications for all the movements that you're doing. Yeah.

But she's in there ripping. And so young, old, doesn't matter. All body types. Like, they're in there. And they're dominating. Yeah. And I'm like, my legs, bro, you'll get up on like your toes in some moves where you're doing like these wall sits.

You pick up your toes. You're doing these pulsing squats. And you're trying to hold these fucking poses. And I'm shaking one of my dad's favorite lines. I'm shaking like a dog shit and peach seeds. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you, like, I'm taking many of breaks, right? So in my head, I'm like,

Charles, I tell you, she was like, hey, how do you feel from the class? Like, I feel like it was a phenomenal, like rehab, a very intense rehab session for myself. Because my body feels great. I feel like my body responded real well. Like, glutes or everything's activated core.

Yeah. Like, I don't feel my low back pain that much. So I'm like, man, I need to kind of put, I need to frequent, I need to have this in my toolbox because it does make me feel really good. But I also feel like I fail because I had to take so many breaks.

You didn't fail. You did great. and the environment vibe is like you're around a bunch of dudes and you fail a lot, you're getting poured on. Yeah. Yeah, you did kind of push out. You did this. They're patting you on the ass.

You're doing a great job. I don't feel like it. I stepped away a couple times with thanks. No, you crushed it. And you're just like, oh, I can be around this. I would hate to turn one of her classes into a circus. But I think that that would be a really fun vlog opportunity. us just going and doing the bar three class that too that's what I'm saying and maybe the milk team sixers that out there that might be familiar with bar three are they taking a bar three class like what an opportunity to do like a for the dad's collab where it's you're bringing in your husband because we're going to do it yeah and to give a shout out no free shout out because it's a from an unbiased third party one of jill's very good friends grace here in Nashville takes uh want to charge of

led bar three classes and raves about it, dude. She loves it. They vibe with Charo. That's just a little shout out, no free shout out. Like, yeah, she's just a little rubber band. Like, yeah, she's a stud. Hey, man, come on, man. Come on, man, you talking about my wife? Yeah.

She kind of got it. I popped one of the balls. No. I was like hitting the wall sitter. I was leaning on it. And all of a sudden, the ears coming out. I look back. It's like, and I kind of like, I kind of like,

put it down and I just grab another ball. Charles just at the front of the glass. Just trying to come up. Hey, this happens, right? I don't see anybody else's ball popped. He's good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Margaret's ball popped too. I just want to put that out there.

Margaret, I saw that. Sneak the ball behind an old lady. Hey, what? She just popped the ball. Your knife, it. She's ball just popped. Yeah. I don't know what he was all that.

Put it behind the pregnant lady. He put it behind the pregnant lady. lady. Jesus. I think her water broke over here. Whoa, whoa. I'm not trying to make a big deal about this. Start empty my water bottle around her spot. And we got to get her out of here. Hey, this is such a wild note, by the way, a fun MT6 fact. The latest natural birth in the United States was a 58 year old woman. She did a Pilates class the day she delivered.

Some of them. There's some women, bro. Sickos out there, dude. Keep the fitness and exercise going all the way up until. Some sickos out there. Some Dan Gable sickos. Yes. I have Vince on Spotify.

This is PT Fit. Boy, 75 hard is perfect for dads. It will change you both physically and mentally. I've become such a better dad. Since I've started the program, I structure my day around not missing time with the kids and wife. I quickly realized that there was so. much wasted time in a day would love to be a part of a 75 hard PT fit group.

Which, pt, 75 hard, hard. I'm not against it. No, no, no. That's true discipline. That is. 75 hard is true discipline. It's almost like I look where I'm at now because, again, the whole game is structuring. Right?

Like I was writing, I was writing down some of my updates to share, talk about my PTF. fit journey so far. And a lot of this urgency has come up. Number one, I was very disappointed myself over the last several months. Yeah. It's kind of my worst stretch post career of football of not being in the weight room, not exercising. Eating okay, but not like holiday season

destroys me. I'm very much I indulge in holiday season. And you go and get blood work. I go to this like health 3.0 spot called Paradigm. Awesome spot. basically like a concierge service of everything. Think of it as like you have somebody who's going through a true financial advisor who goes through everything, walks with you, everything else.

They do this like for your body through blood work, decks of scans, your body movement. They tag an age to it. Like how are you moving? Everything. Stuff that's going on. Old MRIs. They take everything all encompassing and work with you because they think longevity. They think 50 years down the road, not us wanting to get jacked and 24.

26. Yep. And my blood work in June or July, I think it was June, and then my blood work at the end of the year or seven months later, my blood work has gotten worse, my Dexas scan has gotten worse, which I knew was going to happen. I joke about and talk about the body fat. It was like 27 percent, the visceral grams of fat, how much Charo was buying into it and got so much better.

Like, Charles almost like in a superior range of working with the group. and like diving into her fitness and everything else. Her numbers sounded like Olympic athlete type numbers. She's a stud, girl. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, crazy. So just my wife and seeing her feedback and everything else is almost just like a, I am sick and tired of being sick and tired about it.

And it's almost like a not like a wake-up call. I'm not in like an emergency situation. But my cholesterol's been high. It's even higher. My vitamin levels are not that good. My blood pressure's been high every time I've went in. Some things could be stress inducing. Some things could be genetic.

You kind of look at the entire picture of the entire scope. Yeah. And my man's been, we've been working with each other almost weekly now because he's like, dude, just start right now until your sore next weight room gets put in the garage because some of it was the excuse. This is an excuse coming out of my mouth. Where I'm going to say some of it was moving. I was moving garages and set up. So it's just an excuse that I'm giving myself because there's a fucking wait room that we have in our shop. Yeah. But it truly is structuring. It's like we've joked about our ladies. And goon nights and everything else, but staying up late does hurt if you're wanting to be somebody

who dominates your morning because our mornings is waking up, being up at seven, from seven to 8.15 is all kid related or 730 to 830 is all kid related before we get Rue out of the house to school car line. I'm making her lunch. I'm making breakfast. Charles gets them ready. But we have, like I have been waking up earlier in between the 6 and 630 mark. I've been doing zone two. He's like, just start zone two, get on your assault bike. You have the, you. You have the, you have your garment, zone two, five sessions of 30 minutes. You need to get 150 minutes of zone two cardio. So things I've been doing is the zone two cardio, the ATG or knees over toes guy, I love their Instagram. I bought into their program. I've had their program for years,

but they have, they have workout structures for people who want to be shredded, for people this, all the way down to old people. They have body weight stuff, everything. Yeah. But I hit that stuff, sauna and cold water. I do 12 minutes of cold water every week. four days of three minutes each, sauna, 80 minutes, four sessions of 20 minutes each. I'm giving this information to anybody that wants any direction.

And more of like I want to say it out loud because it gives me like an accountability factor. I've had Sal Fricela in my ear because 75 hard comes from first form. Andy Fasella, the Fasella brothers. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he challenged me to do like a half marathon. I haven't responded to him on April 11th

because I'm like, you ain't get my ass out there running. Yeah. that far, that quickly, all that stuff. The 75 hard is awesome. They have a 75 soft. They have all of these different regiments. But I am, from what our boy is saying, that 75 hard rips, we should do a 75 hard PT fit.

I am on board with that. But part of it myself is stacking some of these small wins to build momentum because I do. It's like my goals for the end of the year, I'm writing them down. I want to get under a bar. I haven't been under a bar because of my low back in years. This dates back to like 2020 or 2021 while I was still playing football because I was having back issues. And that's for upper and lower body workouts, like squat and band. When I'm talking about getting under a bar, I'm talking about back squatting.

I have a back squatting in years. I would love to because it like load your spine and everything else. But there are healthy, there are progressions to where I can have a healthy enough back to load my back again. I would love to do that. That is a goal for myself. I'm somebody who, again, within my first couple hours of waking up, 50 grams of protein in my breakfast, 30 grams of protein at every meal, a massive glass of water when I wake up with lemon and salt to get electrolytes, all of that fun stuff. You can look up all this stuff. This is like my own walk, my own journey, communicating to PT6, PT fit as we're going on this.

A part of me does one is flip the switch. When the Soarneck's gym gets put in, I do want to flip the switch. I would love to fucking challenge myself to a 75 hard because that shit. does seem awesome and seems very, very good for you. Because a lot of the rules, I think we went over them last week, but it's like a five-step, five boxes checked in the day. Yeah, yeah. You're getting a couple workouts in, one of them's outdoors.

You're getting a gallon of water. You're reading 10 minutes of a personal development book. I would love in the PT fit universe. Maybe it's a book in the personal development phase, but also more tailored toward parenthood. A parenting book. What else? I aim for my body weight

and grams of protein but blood work Dexas scans I have bar three last Friday shouting out bar three and giving my wife she love because I did enjoy doing the class I do think the bar three for the dad's collab would be fun but I'm very much invested in this PT fit idea

and I do feel like step one is being vulnerable talking about my shortcomings where I'm at I need to fucking take a photo myself because it's like I'll look in the mirror and I'm like, dude, you are. I'll look at old photos. My man. You were looking at that one the other day with George at Taylor's wedding.

Yeah, and he was talking about my neck and like, we used to, I'm like, I know and I'm laughing, but it's also like, dude, we give ourselves, I'll speak for myself. I give myself the reasoning of I'm 36, I'm still young, I have time, you got a lot going on. You have family dynamic. You have work dynamic. You have a lot of moving parts. And so I give myself those outs, right? or I'll stay up late and play video games.

Like, it's my time to be social. It's my time to have fun. I'm going to stay up a little later because I can sleep till seven. Yeah. Instead of like, bro, Willie boy, you know, man, you want to get up earlier. You have to mix this off the fucking docket. Or if you do want to play video games, bro,

structure it out from like 830 to 10. Yeah. If you're dying to play video games or you're dying to watch TV shows. Yeah. These are like these self-conversations. I'm having with myself. All to say I, P.T. Fit.

I'm fucking on board. I don't even know what I'm trying to say. I'm more just... You're inspired. Vomiting. I am feeling inspired. Jill and I also inspired with the PT Fit movement. Just from...

I don't want to speak too much on Jill's stuff. I feel like I could share it with Jill's stuff. She's basically wanting to get fit to try and avoid some of those gestational diabetes, some of the high blood pressure stuff with our next pregnancy. So she has a weight goal that I basically match of 30 pounds by the end of this year as just our goal of what we're going to work towards for kid number two. If we are to try and move towards kid number two,

She wants to get into a healthier range. I obviously want to get into a healthier range because, you know, we joked about me being at the doctor or we both went to the doctor and they took our blood pressure. Yeah. More than twice. Yep. And you're sitting there like, oh, it might be the wrong cough. It might be different coughs, this and that.

Yeah. And do you have coffee this morning? Did not have coffee this morning. Oh. And like seeing her face to the answer of no, I didn't have any caffeine. But yeah, and having the goal of running a 400 meter in under 60 seconds, a lot needs to happen for that. A regiment needs to happen for that.

So I haven't implemented anything like you're talking about, but I'm excited for it. Yeah, there's like, because now my wife is all me about stuff. And she's been an awesome, like, accountability. Like we were, she, we got up this morning and went through like a flow. session that bar three offers online like yoga stretching out against getting some mobility in the Hey it's us the Jonas brothers and guess what we have some big news what's the news news news We created our own podcast called Hey Jonas we invented a podcast well we didn't invent it we just

We just contributed to us first people to do podcasts pretty yeah pretty wide range of podcasts We're starting a trend but this one's extra special so how did we how do we actually come up with a name hey Jonas guys I honestly don't remember I think it was on a call about what we should call it. Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this.

We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, where people could call in and say, hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it.

Joints and everything else, and it's awesome. But it's like, my doc hit me up, like, on a Sunday night or maybe it was, wait, what's the what's today, Tuesday? Tuesday. So Sunday night, hit me up at like 8.30 p.m. in an email.

It's like, hey, going through your blood work that I most recently took, nothing is an emergency, but would love to get on the phone this week and walk you through some things because your cholesterol over things involving your cholesterol

and your vitamin levels. And so I tell that to Charo, hers go up because it's like, you know, you think about the kids, you think about the family, like, hey, there's nothing that is pressing. But you can just, tell by the tone and the intention and him following up and everything else because I've worked

with him now for I'll be coming up on a year here in a few months but you want to start stacking some progress. A hundred percent. After seven months you don't want to see the meter go the other way, which I knew was going to happen. And I was telling him, I was being frank with him because he's like, tell me like what's on your mind. And I word vomited a lot of stuff and kind of recapped our year or season, all the things we did,

the things with family, all that kind of stuff. And him just wanting to kind of walk with me more on, he's like, how do we get some structure in place to where some of the things maybe you might be working, but you can accomplish some of these things at work. Yeah. And I ultimately tell him, I'm like, part of me coming in is almost ashamed of coming in because you feel like you disappoint the, you disappoint the authority. The authority in my brain is you.

I feel a lot of that has to do with being in a performance-based world with football and everything else because you never want to let your coach down. You never want to let your family down. You never want to let yourself down. And when I know I'm doing that, part of me punts the meetings and calling back and text because I know I'm not putting in the work that I'm proud of. So if that's happening with me, it's not anything against them. I'm just being vulnerable and just saying, like, part of me gets ashamed to come in and talk about all this stuff. Yeah, you have a humongous external force of being an ex-NFL football player on yours, whereas, like, somebody sees a picture of me, and they're not going to be like, oh, Sherman kind of let himself go, if that makes sense. Yeah, because I wasn't that, like, level of peak athleticism.

so like that external pressure isn't there as much for me, but the internal pressure is very much there for me of like, even as it needs to happen. Yeah. And I get that that stuff can be quote unquote real, but some of the external stuff that we're talking about is truly just assumptive. It's just what we're telling ourselves.

A quote I just saw online that I really love dealing with that kind of stuff is being healthy. And getting in shape is not an obstacle. It's actually the solution. So I've been telling myself that with just like with external stresses and whatever may come up is like, hey, when you go workout or when you're eating well, you make a good decision. Like that is not an obstacle.

You're actually, you're working towards a solution. And that's one that I've been kind of the last two weeks been going at. It's been really nice. Yeah. It reminds you of the book of Atomic Habits. I know that's like a massive bestseller, but it's like stripping yourself of the idea of an outcome. and it really just comes down to what your daily habits are. If you change your daily habits, you change everything.

Yeah. But share with you guys, share with the audience. I love that. I need to get a full breakdown of daily regimen and daily routine that I'll apply for myself. One starter is just non-negotiable and one that I've been kicking myself is walking the dogs every morning, every night. because that needs to happen and I'll just do the lazy fright yard hey go get them

yeah it's easy like when you're talking about like eating the elephant one bite at a time stacking wins like that's the easiest win to stack because I need to be doing it and then on the weekends too of Jill and I prioritizing doing walks with Scarlet getting outside

not just sitting around the house watching movies but yeah I'm excited. Yeah. Yeah. It all correlates too. We're obviously talking about fitness, but this is to me in every area that you have, every

bucket that you have with fitness, self, work, marriage, parenthood. We all have the idea. We all know what I mean? Like we know the answers. We just, we get scared to look that close in the mirror. Yeah. Because we get disappointed. in ourselves.

Yeah. And there's always the excuse of tomorrow is like the big excuse for me of like couples therapy. Like I'm a huge believer in couple's therapy. It's like why why hasn't that been established? Jill's a huge believer in that. Sitting down and having like a full Excel spreadsheet breakdown of finances, Jill and I getting a joint account, a joint savings account.

like all those little things where it's like, well, it's been a really, it's been a really busy month. And we've been, there's a lot going on with Scarlet. We'll get to it. It's going to get done. Yeah, there's rap poop on the thing. Like, I'll go get traps tomorrow at Home Depot. And I'll set the traps out.

Like, everything starts stacking on each other. But it's, everybody says, like, make your bed is like, because that's a very first thing you do when you wake up. It's, you know. Catch a small dub. Catch a small dub. up. I told you when I was in bed

for like a month depressed. And we touch on this like at the very, I think this was like pre-Daric, like one of our very first episodes. That was what my therapist told me when I was just like literally trapped in my own head and laying in bed

not getting out of bed for a full month. He's just like, get up, make your bed, shower and put a nice outfit on that somebody's going to see you in. Because then you might as well just leave the house. If you look nice,

you might as well, you know, go apply for that job that you've been wanting to apply for. You might as well, like, all the big goals. Yeah, yeah. It's not a Dan Gable, but an Apollo Creed. Ooh. There is no tomorrow.

There is no tomorrow. No tomorrow. Tomorrow. Tomorrow. No, that's where you're wrong, man. Get the piss. hot with some Apollo crew. It's just the echo of the little basement gym that there is.

The rainbow tomorrow. Yeah. And he's hitting the walls and he looks up in the mirror. Do we want to do? I'm afraid, all right? I don't want to lose what I got. Yes. Do you watch?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's hit the voice message. We're still under an hour. We're still under an hour. 601 the dads for a reminder. And then you can write in 601 the dads at gmail.com. This is our first one.

It is dating advice for Pt6. What's going on, boys? Love the show. Just got a quick question. My son just finished with his rugby season and it's co-ed. One of the girls came up to him and asked him for his number. Mind you, he's only 11. What do I do?

hey, you mind if I get those 10 digits. Kids got games, son's got game. Kids got game. Now we're talking about an 11-year-old. We are talking about someone's sweet little 11-year-old. Little boy. First off, huge W that a girl is approaching your son to ask him for his number.

What confidence? I think that's a huge W for both of those parents. What advice would you go? Okay, 11 years old, that's what? Fifth grade? Yeah. Fifth? What was I doing at 11?

Because it's like the phone game is kind of out of my wheelhouse right now. Yeah. Because I'm not going through it. Obviously, I'm doing what? whatever I can to kind of prepare for it. I come across a lot of stuff with technology and when should they have a phone when they should not. All of these. There's a massive, there's a lot of opinions on it.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I want to be careful. There also, I know that there's like the romantic side of this, but like she did just ask for his number. Could mean nothing. Exactly. Because again, they're young. I mean, there were you. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But if I had a crush, Trisha Hartrop was her name. I was fifth or sixth grade. I might have been a fifth grader. She was a sixth grader. And, you know, you want to have a boyfriend or a girlfriend at that age. What my parents would do, because that was landline back then. Yeah. But if we wanted to like hang out or anything, it would be at the movies with a parent.

Yeah. You know what I mean? like, okay. At the mall with a parent. Yeah. Yes. If they're wanting to hang out outside of school or rugby, parental supervision. Yeah, dude.

The girl wants this number. I don't know what the intention is. Like, wants this number to hang out? Uh-huh. Are they the same age? Is she a year older? She a couple years older. Yeah.

But it's like both of the parents of the two kids being on the same page to, A, do they want to go see a movie? Yeah. Which one of us wants to go chaperone them, pick them up, drive them, go to the movie, sit in the movie with them. And just if you're allowing that to even happen. So like I had friends where, you know, friends that were girls and their parents wouldn't let them date or anything until they were like a certain age. Yeah. So again, this is a, this is a topic that has a lot of different opinions.

So many different little veins. My own experience when I was a fifth breeder and had a crush and wanted a girlfriend if we were going to hang out outside of. of exchanging notes in the hallway at school, it would be one of our parents picking us up to go sit at the movie with us. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So my addition to your like how to do it, it would be the awesome opportunity

that this boy dad has of that pregame talk and some other conversations with son about respecting women. Yeah, yeah. Making her feel safe, making it find, environment, things we don't say, things we do say, things that we do when we're hanging out with girls, how we treat girls. How we court them.

How we court them. Because as crazy as it sounds, Jill, my now wife, who's 30, I know from her talking about this guy that her little fifth and sixth grade boyfriend crush was the quote unquote sweetest guy ever Sherman, you would have loved him. And that guy was just the little fifth and sixth. sixth grade boyfriend, but look at the impact that that had on Jill of a picture of, that's a good, that's a model of a good man, how I should be treated, was my fifth and sixth grade boyfriend that never tried anything, never inappropriate, always sweet. And I now,

you know, she thinks highly of me because I'm her husband, but she equates me to him as like, y'all would be besties. Like y'all, like he's such a great guy, da, da, duh. And that's really cool, the little opportunity that as small as it seems. That is a great point, honestly. Because again, we don't know the full... Number one, we don't know the full context of this situation. Yeah. Like, are they just trying to play

video games? Like, is it a friend? Do they like each other? Do they have a crush? If they do, and you're cool with them going to do the movie example or any of the examples. But to your level, which I think is phenomenal, the opportunity of teaching your son,

the manners, the courtship, the game of how we respect women. How you treat, yeah, how you treat your friends or women so that when, you know, that she's off at college, she can think back and go, my friend Brandon would never do that. Yeah.

Never say that. Good shit, bro. Let's go. Oh, speaking of, Steaking BJ Buddy is our second voice. There we go. Talk about all that. Let's get back to the. That's steak and blow jobs. What up, fellas.

Caleb from Montana here. Not a dad, but a 22-year-old listener. Love the show. Last night, or as I'm sitting here, getting ready for church, I'm realizing it's the 15th. If you guys know yesterday, hopefully you guys cashed in on Stake and Blowjob Day. Well, as a single fellow,

I didn't really have many expectations for this day. But then last night, I got a random text from one of my best friends saying, Hey, you want to come over for some analope steaks? Of course, any good guy friend. Yeah, I'm there for some steaks. Luckily, the blowjob diet side didn't come with it because it was just me and him there eating some steaks. That would have been a little weird.

But I'm not sure if he's hitting at anything. I don't know if he's a listener of the pod. So I just thought it was pretty funny this morning going, shit. I just went over to my best friend's house. That's a guy, just us do, for steak and blowjob day. Hopefully the neighbors didn't think anything of it. See, you boys. And it's all, you know, it's all about optics in a situation like that.

It's all about optics. I love that this SD6 are called in. Yeah, dude. And the assumption, like, hope the neighbors didn't think anything. Like, the neighbors are also big fans of the pod. Yeah, yeah. You're looking out the window. Oh, you see Tim going over to John's house.

I see him grilling steaks in the backyard. You think? No. Tim? there's no way I see Tim wearing a BT6 shirt could they

no not Tim not in Montana I know Antelope's was the most Montana thing in the entire world and hey

if you if we ain't against anything we ain't no no no no no we ain't judge no no

if it did you know happy steak day yeah if it had been a happy steak and BJ day

happy steak and BJ look look buddy listen on this side of the mountain i you know i hear you in montana yeah broke back broke back mouth i love that our brain thank you that was a beautiful i like that he thought of this on the way to church that was my favorite part excuse me father can i get a confession can i get you in the confession room yes my son go ahead we didn't do nothing but i just the sin is weighing on me How many ounces was the antelope steak, my son?

I don't know. It was like a tenderloin. It was probably like eight ounces. Dano Marys. Thank you, father. That's incredible. I get to take a road trip. Is our third and last voicemail.

Hey, what's up, boys? Joe, Philadelphia, first time, long time. I'm calling on a road trip. Get my road trip badge today. My daughter, three months old, and my dog, my puppy beau, two years old, from Philadelphia to New Hampshire. I get to stop every two hours to feed her with a bottle. I get to turn a five-hour drive into a seven-hour drive. Good.

I get to do all of this just so that way my wife, she has to take some sacrifices. She has to go into the office. So today, she's probably going to have to go to brunch with the girls. She's probably going to have to eat ice cream tonight without me on the couch, before bed. She's going to have to do those things. She's going to have to make those sacrifices. But I get to go on a road trip with my three-month-old daughter, stop every two hours on a drive that I normally can just do straight through without stopping her gas. But I get to eat her to eat her bottle every two hours.

I'll give you guys some updates if I managed to stay this positive for the rest of the ride. Thank you. And stay strong, fellas. Stay hard, man. Stay hard. He gets to clean the poop that seeps out of the diaper because you forgot to change it at the last bottle feed. You get to listen on the same song on repeat if you have a lullaby go-to. And you need the little one to fall asleep.

Yeah. Or the shusher. Will, have you ever had the pleasure of a road? trip with the shusher? Tell me more. Oh, with the white noise. Oh, it's actually going, or you're the shusher. No, it's a nice little, it's on repeat.

It's a nice little 10-hour shusher that is, it's great for any road trip. And you get to listen to that if the kiddos in the back. Good news. Who knows? I hope everything went well. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But getting two at the three-month-old, compared to one a little bit older when it gets harder to travel with them.

Ooh, yeah. You do, there, there's some silver lining there. I was about to say if he can time. Because I've been on some sicko, road trips. And I'm looking at you, Scotty. If you can time it with sleep, that's, we've talked about this dad hack.

You're right. You are a thousand percent correct. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But sometimes shit hits the fan. Shit hits the fan. And it doesn't go according to plan. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And Scotty's one of them. This guy's got her dad in her.

She got that comp and blood. You got that A-Gat mentality when she's strapped in that car seat. Come on, man. Bro, matter of fact, you just fucking, it wasn't five hours or seven hours. It was 30 minutes. We went to Perrin down in Franklin last Thursday, I believe. Maybe it was Thursday. Maybe it was Wednesday.

And had a wonderful dinner. Had a wonderful meal. Perin. Great. food, went there for dinner. Yeah. Got me some steak and fries. And on the way home, I had the, obviously drove Rue and Scotty there. To me, Mom.

Mom was doing her, her, I think, paradigm check in. So her health check in. And met her at the restaurant. Restaurant was great. On the way home, we were going to split both kiddos. Rew wanted to wrap with Mama. Okay. I'll take Scotty.

Scotty is such a mama's girl right now. She's such a mama's girl. Loves mama, dude. She loves her dad too, but it's, I'm talking glued to the hip, mama's the answer. Mama's the safe space. Mom is the solution. She missed mom the entire 30 minutes. I'm talking screaming bloody murder in the truck, dude.

And I'm throwing all seven different kinds of smoke. Yeah. To where eventually I lost my shit. Scotty, you got to shut up. Might not have been shut up, but it's like, you gotta stop crying. Come on, man. Work with me. Ah, dude, I couldn't take it, bro.

Of course, my phone takes away. Scott, he's losing it. Yeah. I pull the entire way home. Then I get out, park, truck goes off. She stops crying when the truck goes off. You know, the car I look back at her. She's got, you know, the tears.

your welted eyes, the saddest thing in the world. Yeah. Pull her out, kind of like a jerk motion to get her out and like just set her on the ground while I get the backpack and everything else. I'm pissed. Yeah, yeah. Because I'm like, dude, what the fuck are we doing, man? Like, I'm chopped liver apparently. Yeah.

Dude, we're going to get home. You're going to see mom again. Yeah. Pick her up, go and set her on the kitchen counter. I sit on the kitchen counter. It's silent in the house. I feel waffled down on my feet. And I'm just looking at Scotty.

I'm like, dude, what was that? what are you doing we're home i told you we're coming home yeah like dude we're beefing right now yeah told us straight up i'm like when mom gets home i'm telling this to scotty when mom gets home i'm giving her the bottle and i'm like you got scotty because i'm dumb with you yeah i can't talk to you right now i don't negotiate with terrier yeah guess what you're being right now also i don't say this to pick on you i i say this because it was really fun to get to see it. I've never seen you lose

yourself ever, like upset wise. And I saw a hint of it at the zoo when you were trying to hand Rue, the beef jerky stick, the beef stick. Do you remember that? Were we about to get on the train? You, no way.

It was actually right after the train. And you had said like four times in a row, Rue, beef stick. Beef stick. Rue, beef stick. And I think she may have been talking to me. Yeah, I think she's probably telling you a story. She probably told me a story.

And you just go, after the fourth one, you go, for the love of God, the beast. And she finally took it from me and you go, thank you. And just hearing that tone and your voice made me giggle, dude. It was so funny. I lost in the truck. It was like a split. It was like a five-second moment. You do the thing.

turn up the music. I'm going to try and beat you with this music. You can't do it. I'm just like, Scotty, I'm like reaching back trying to like rock right of stoplight. Yeah. Sweetheart, you got llama. You need water. For the love of God, talk to me. Yeah. Let's go. We're going to be home in 20 minutes. The closest I've come is just that beat the drum story that I've told you. Oh, my God. The grip that I had on the steering wheel. and I was in some sour mood with nothing.

You get back there and shake him. I did. I grabbed her seat. Hey, Scarlet, let's quit hitting that fucking button. What are we doing? You've hit it 30 times. Not to change the mood too much, but I do have, it says on here,

sad, sad, sad warning. Are you okay with that? I'm good with a sad warning. Okay. I'll walk in here. Fellas, I'm writing to you, too, as fellow dads and to all the other dads out there listening. Some of you may know what I'm going through and some may not. From those who have been through this before, I asked for sympathy for those who haven't.

I simply ask for prayers. There's no easy way to put this, but my wife is leaving me. It certainly is a shock to see the sentence written out. but I can't say I didn't know that this was coming. It's something I've dreaded, but my wife and I have been talking about it for months, and the day has finally come. The worst part about all of this is she's taking my 18-month-old daughter and my unborn daughter, in parentheses, my wife is pregnant with our second.

She's taking them with her. I pleaded and begged with my wife that my daughter could stay with me, but it was a fight I was never going to win. Now flights are booked, bags are packed, and I'm watching the three biggest loves of my life leave out my door while tears streamed down my face. I'm not sure what to do with myself. I'm not sure how I'll survive. These four days are going to be the hardest of my life.

I should probably give more context. My wife is flying with my daughters to go see her best friend's baby shower out of town. I begged her to let me come along, but she kept telling me things like it's only four days, and it's an all-girl shower and stop lying, there's a zero percent chance you actually want to come. Maybe the first part of my email was a bit dramatic, but I'm obviously still stressed about what I'm going to do this coming weekend. She's a great cook, so I'll be missing out on her cooking.

So I'll probably have to order a pizza and wings just to survive. And I'll probably be lonely. So I'll probably have to go out to the bar and watch college basketball with boys just to distract myself. and the house is probably going to be really, really peaceful and quiet, and that's probably going to be devastating. Anyways, this coming weekend is going to be absolutely brutal on me this weekend. So appreciate any and all prayers you can send my way.

Love the pod. It makes it so comforting knowing that there's other dads out there going through the same little struggles and that we're not alone, wishing you guys the best from a very lonely and depressing and not at all awesome home this weekend. Dom. Can I say something? Yeah. Fuck you.

Bro. That's in April 1st. That's an April 1st. Dog. I didn't start to transition until you said pizza and wings. Took it that long. Yeah, it took me along. Dude was like, I'm trying to put some stuff together.

like I'm thinking the wheels going in your head I was sad for him I'm like damn we we you know this dude rode in yeah it's talking about his wife leaving him yeah

like I'm thinking divorce like leaving a lot of us did and the four day thing I started to get confused and I'm like so wait a minute like are they getting divorced and he's wanting to go on this baby shower

it's an all girls one it's an all girls one stop line you don't even want to come and I'm thinking is she cheating on him not letting him come if this is his last hurrah with seeing the kids like let me come to the dude maybe even worse than cheating you bro she's taking the kids to a baby shower out of town the worst part about it all was shirman was talking earlier about how like i don't even look at the

voicemails i trust you he got halfway through that and he's like should we add this to the show like this is fucking sad oh yeah i don't listen to the voicemails but i read i read the emails and that one had me for like the first half and then once he got to the the four days part. I'm like, wait, hold on. Yeah, I started to get confused. I'm like, is, he's just like there, she's leaving him. Excuse me. She's just going on the weekend baby shower.

But if she's coming back, I'm only going to be gone four days. I'm like, okay, so what's that? That's kind of a weird way to separate. And then maybe he's just wanted to last, like, just be around the family one last time. Yeah. And then she doesn't want him to come. I'm like, okay, maybe she's, she's got some other.

motive. And then when you hit the pizza and wings, I'm thinking, oh, that's kind of a, maybe he's just trying to jive with the brand while he's telling us something really deep and serious. And I'm sitting here thinking like, man, I don't have words for him other than just a, Becca, I'm really sorry you're going through that. We'll sit with you in this. I probably still don't have words for him now that I have the full picture, but. But the whole turn. Yeah. Or it's just, he's sad because he's living for a weekend. That, well, well, will. Is that not a big deal? Yeah. I'm sorry.

Is that not a big deal? I mean, the sad alerts, we cry every week. We'd always say, this dude's being vulnerable, talking about his wife's leaving him for his onboard child. Well, now it's for, now it's a joke. Now it's a joke, Will? What? No.

Anybody that's been listening to the pod for this long and got to that moment, the sad alert, everything that goes on with us each week, the tears, a main crew was sad alert written on the sheet. There wasn't actually sad alert written. Just for the record. I added that. That's a Sherman Young original. I did add that.

That was great. Thank you. You had me the whole way until I'm like, these motherfuckers, bro. He has to go watch. You know, if you've gone through this, I ask for some sympathy.

If you haven't, pray for me. And then the leading with my, she's leaving me. Yeah. For four days. During March. This is March.

This is March. This is March. There goes my bracket. Bracket busted. Who wrote that in? That was Dominic Rosa. Dominic Rosa. Well crafted.

Yes. Yeah, because you also was fluffing it as well. I'm thinking I'm about to tear up. I'm sorry. I'm thinking, how do I sit in this moment with him versus just like giving him? I hope he's not like wanting us to give advice because I'm thinking, dude, I don't know. Yeah. That's brutal.

It's still a very serious. That's still, it's still very like in the joke that we run. is. All these are very serious. Well, crafted, well written, Sherman was on board.

I was, well, on air, I do want to say, I am sorry if that, if that did gut you. I thought, my,

we, we, I thought she was leaving him, then I thought she was cheating on him. We often, and he's just writing to us. Like, he's like,

well, I'm going to write into the boys. Yeah. When we do have sad stuff on here, we, we try to celebrate, like, somebody,

their sadness for anybody that does write actual sad things into the podcast because we do often read that and we do love coming around our brothers so for sure we love putting our arms around our guys we love putting our arms around our guys so we will put that out there but I could I could see why you'd be a little sad boy on that and I apologize if that hit too no that was great you got you got me good Dom got us yeah And like obviously best wishes to Dom. Yeah, best, yeah. Yeah.

Did you have somebody else? I don't know. My comments are kind of everywhere. I think they're right here next to our Dan Gable. Oh, there we. Bobblehead. It's hiding behind the. Ah, the rabbit.

Okay. I got a couple. I'll rip these. Where are we at? 215. 115. 15. 1 15.

Should we just rip these and rock? I have a lesson of the week. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yes. Do one of those and then. Okay, here we go. What's up, boys, Coob here. Evan Coop.

Shut up. Come on. Been rocked with For the Dads and Bustin for a long time now. He has. Again, this is a certified sitcom for the boys. And I've learned a ton from watching you guys build what you've built. It's honestly helped shape how I think about fatherhood, work ethic, and showing up every day. one thing I'm excited to teach my son or daughter

is to always bring value but also know your worth work hard be loyal bet on yourself and when the time comes don't be afraid to build your own table if a seat never opens up I love that grateful for the inspiration you guys have given me over the years fatherhood's the biggest contract I'll ever sign appreciate you boys let's go kube thank you for writing in man this is awesome

congratulations to you and wife congratulations Bud's training complete It's become a PT sicko. I hope you had a good March 14th. Hope you had a good March 14th. Come on. Come on. Come on.

I do have one I want to hit here because I saw something in here that I'm curious to read. It's from Timothy Callahan. PT Sixers, I wanted to tell you the incredible story of what I like to think has led me to believe that everything does happen for a reason. For the last 10 years, I've been a high functioning alcoholic from being the life of the party in college to realizing as I'm, I prepared to leave my 20s that the party never stopped. I was the only one still partying. This year on my 30th birthday in September, something higher than me,

something higher than me told me that I'm done partying. I've tried to cut back on drinking in the past, but under my own power, I never succeeded. This was different. It felt like a calling. As months went by staying dry and hitting the weights, my wife, we got married in June last year, decided it was time to start trying.

Was this because I was finally, stepping up and being the man she always knew I could be. Wasn't my newfound motivation and success at work? Was it that I was in the best shape that I've been in since college? I'm still not sure, but nonetheless, BUD's training was sick. Come on. I stress.

I stress was eight weeks ago. I stress was eight weeks ago. I wonder what do you mean. I stressed because eight weeks ago we... Okay. I was stressed. we go. That was probably it. I was stressed because eight weeks ago we found out that we're expecting. Eight weeks ago is also the week that my friend Austin introduced me to the pod. Just days before

learning the news. As I near my six-month sobriety milestone, listening and learning weekly, I've learned that it's a boy. The due date, September 12th. My 31st birthday and what will be exactly one year from making the best decision of my life, taking my life back. My wife Sarah has supported me through everything. She was there when I was struggling and celebrates all my successes, even the small ones. Listening to the pod makes me feel ready to be there for her for what I'm sure will be our hardest, most rewarding journey yet. Garbages are out. Dishes are done. The dog is walked. Stakes are dry aging for steak and blowjob day this Saturday, March 14th. Can't wait to crack a celebratory olipop this September. Tim. Tim, thank you for writing in,

my friend. Tim, very humbling email. Yeah. That goes in the humbling. category, dude. Yeah, and thank you for sharing the high functioning alcoholic. All of that, dude. Thank you for sharing that story. Thank you for sharing why you felt like those are the reasons that you turned everything around. And now you're about to be a dad. Yeah. Which you're right is the best thing in the world, the hardest thing in the world. So congratulations, man. That is awesome. It makes this, this podcast is really fun and cool because we are. currently wearing robes from a seance that we conducted

earlier to you know ward off the girl dad or the girl only the girl only curse. We're at ourselves of the curse. Also a PT Sicko that introduced himself. I went to that Pokemon Rip and Pax

thing with Taylor the Expo and there was a PT Sicko talking to him and he actually said he listened to before the dads and he was trying to explain to me why he liked it. He was like, you know, I like the genuine, like the really genuine moments and how you, um, like you, you guys, I go, the shitheadedness. He goes, yes, the coupled with the, the shitheadedness.

And I think that's what makes the show so great. And I was like, well, dude, thank you. Like that's, that's a very like, I love hearing that review. But that is what I love about this show is you can have. emails like that, that it's like, man, I just, I love that you are loving life, finding purpose, joy, all that stuff and that listen to our podcast is a part of that. Your journey. Yeah, your journey.

That's in. Your brain was short wiring there for a second. Yeah. That, you know. With the shitheadedness. Yeah. Yeah. This is it.

This is March. Yeah. Well, that was how he was trying to get the word shitheadedness. And I had to, yeah, yeah, yeah, I had to jump in there for it. Feed the word. Because he, he didn't want to be insulting. I was like, you're not. Yeah, that's the vibe, man.

We just talked about steak and blow jobs for a long time. Speaking of, I have our, like a nice little lesson in the week. It's a great lesson, followed with steak and blowjob day. And before I go into it, I do, we got some comments that maybe the Dan Gable quotes were too much that we were doing. too many of them. Really? Yeah. And I don't want to like.

Yeah. No. No, we didn't. Yeah. I didn't want to make a big deal about it, but there were a couple like, hey, Dan gave a quote every week. Like, is this really what we're going to do? Oh, that sucks.

I get the action figure. We got the bubble head. So I switched it up. I switch it up. This one comes from Gandable. Success is earned in the hours nobody sees. And that's from coach Gandable. just to switch it up for any of those.

I like his vibe. Yeah, yeah. I like his vibe. Reminiscent. Yeah. Reminiscent. My topic, quote, lesson in the week is intentional time with the wifie.

Jill and I have been putting our phones down slash turning off the TV and setting down her Kindle for a mandatory 10-minute cuddle session every night. I know that does. doesn't sound very long. And it's like, wait, that's mandatory?

Like, we're talking, cuddle? Cuddle. Cuddle. Like snuggle or cuddled? Snuggle. No shockwave. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

We're just, we're literally talking 10 minutes of cuddling in bed. No shockway. Okay. No pun. Every night and it's been unreal. The pillow talk that we've been having during these times is something that's been lacking in our relationship for months. It's been awesome from a connection.

standpoint, but also extremely calming and relaxing, has been helping us fall asleep faster. That's when you know it's a good convo when you fall asleep mid-conversation, which is something that we hadn't had in months, which is honestly kind of sad that like the screens had done that to us. In general, I've been trying to emphasize dating my wifie, flirting with her, joking with wifie, asking Wifie her opinion on things, kissing her, hugging her, respectfully grabbing cheek while she's on the step stool, reaching for the nice bowls that we keep in the higher kitchen cabinets and hitting her with a little,

in parentheses I wrote. She loves that. But yes, 10 minute of mandatory cuddle sesh, it's fire. And it's very easy to implement. Love that. And I know that that sounds like a bit like,

oh man, that's kind of sad, German, like 10 minutes of cuddle. but just with everything with the baby and stuff, like you kind of lose you a little bit. And you got to get back into that like, hey, we're lovey-dovey, like. Back into the courtship.

Yeah. We're lovey-dovey, boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wifey, like, that's my girl. And it's been really great. That's Bay. That's Bay. You want a date? Or an all.

Good lesson. Thank you, dude. Great sewed. Great so. you want to sign us off? I don't think I've ever done a sign off before. Guys, this has been another episode of For the Dads. We hope you enjoyed it.

We hope that your balls are empty and that your mouths are full of Oli-pop. Make sure to separate those trash bins. Don't have them touching. Don't have them in front of the mailbox. God forbid. Get them out from in front of the mailbox. Take your trash out. Have a great week.

Hey guys, it's us The Jonas Brothers, I'm Joe. I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick. And guess what? We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it.

We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions.

Another podcast from some SNL late-night comedy guy, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smygel and friends. Me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you funnier. This week, my guest, SNL's Mikey Day and head writer Streeter Seidel help an a cappella band with their between songs banter. Where does your group perform? We do some retirement homes. Those people are starving for banter.

This morning, the internet lost its mind, and nobody's telling you exactly what happened. That's where SportsSlice comes in. I'm Timbo, and every episode we're cutting through the noise, breaking down the biggest moments in sports and giving you the real story behind the headline. And we're going straight to the source, the athletes themselves, their locker room

stories, their reactions in the moment, and the stuff nobody gets to hear. Listen to SportsClace on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you you get your podcast. And for more, follow Timbo's Slice of Life 12 in the TikTok podcast network on TikTok. Winning on Clay is an art. The rallies are relentless. And at the French Open, only the toughest survive. I'd know. I competed there for decades. Join me, Renee Stubbs, on the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast for no nonsense breakdowns of the biggest matches, the toughest players, and the moments that define Roland Garris. Jenchie win. She's an outsider to win the French for me. And she likes Clay. Listen, Lina Rubakina is arguably the best player in the world right now.

I actually can win on any surface. Listen to the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Presented by Capital One, founding partner of IHeart Women's Sports.
