Bussin' With The Boys - The Best of For The Dads: 2025 Recap | For The Dads Podcast

Episode Date: December 31, 2025

In this episode of For The Dads, we take a trip down memory lane and look back on the laughs, the tears, and the moments that defined our first year together. From the very first episode to where we are now, we revisit the stories, sayings, and inside jokes that helped shape the show—and the community around it. These are the moments that made us laugh out loud, hit pause to reflect, and realize we were all going through this dad thing together.   Thank you to everyone who’s been along for the ride. When we started For The Dads, we had no idea where it would lead—but creating a space to talk honestly about fatherhood, in all its highs and lows, wouldn’t be possible without you. Here’s to another year of learning, laughing, and showing up for our families. 🍻 Willy One Shelf, Fat Stafford, Deke, and Chef   —-- TIMELINE 2:19 - The Start of FTD   4:51 - Sherm’s Post-Delivery Interview   22:01 - GOOD.   24:07 - Creation of PT6   26:28 - We Forgot To Hit Record   32:54 - How to Survive Football Season    39:57 - Will Hates Bullies   49:14 - Scarlett’s First Stars Game    59:47 - “You Don’t Have To You Get to” 1:01:28 - Will Calls 1 Year Old Chef a Bitch —--   For The Dads is for every guy who needs a place to talk, vent, and laugh about all the insane, hilarious, and chaotic sh** (sometimes literal) that comes with being a dad.    Hosted by Will Compton–NFL Vet, creator of Bussin' With the Boys, and proud dad of two. This show isn’t about expert advice and how fatherhood is the greatest thing on earth—it’s about embracing the love and suck of parenthood every day. From balancing work and family to battling the mental load, fears, and the moments that wreck you in the best way, we dive into it all with honesty, vulnerability, and a sense of humor. Cause at the end of the day... us dads have no idea what we're doing.   Alongside Will is his producer Sherman Young, a recently new father who’s currently deep in the trenches of Fatherhood and loving every minute of it. Together, they’ll break down everything that can go right and wrong (...usually wrong) when you bring tiny humans into this world.   Expect funny parenting stories, laughs, call-ins, advice, weekly themes, and the kind of conversations you’d have over a cold beer in the garage. Whether you’re raising teens or still Googling “how to install a car seat”, For the Dads is the ultimate podcast for dads who are in it, about to be in it, or just trying to do their best while screwing it up along the way.   -----   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   Liquid IV - Go to https://www.liquid-iv.com/ and get 20% off your first order with code Bussin at checkout.    Olipop - Get $2 off any 4-pack of OLIPOP at https://drinkolipop.com/BUSSINSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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. Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it. But, you know, tired and sick. 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. 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. Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and Friends on the I-Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Podcasts. This is Saigon, the story of my family and of the country that shaped us. From IHeart Podcasts, Saigon. You don't think I'm serious about a free Vietnam?

We just know we wanted to have a show where we embrace fatherhood, the highs and lows, the best parts of parenthood, the chaos in parenthood, not shy away and try and be this perfect cookie cutter approach to what parenthood looks like.

Talk about the things that we talk about as dads, whether we're in the garage and the house with our wives, whatever it is. A lot of these moments will be in the episode. a big shout out to you guys. Our favorite part of doing this show and having this brand is the community aspect.

It's moms, wives, husbands, people in relationships, people that aren't even in a relationship, and they're just fired up for what fatherhood might look like one day. Just a combination of everybody.

We have a lot of cool things cooking for the year of 2026. Partners coming on board. And again, it's all because of the community that we've built, the Papa Team 6 community, not to shout out one,

but to also shout out one, Ali Pop will be joining the brand in 20s, 26, because of the videos, the comments, and everything that we talk about on social media. So again, massive thank you to you guys. I hope you had an incredible 2025. And even if there were lows in your 2025, man, reflect on it,

Welcome to For the Dads. This is a show by a dad, by a soon-to-be future dad. Yeah, future Dad. For the Dads. I guess we should start by introducing ourselves. I am the co-creator of Bustin with the boys. I am a full-time dad. I am a husband. And my wife, Charo,

Charo Compton, sorry, your boy is super nervous for this. This is a project that is very near and dear to both mine and Sherm's heart. It's something that I know we are super excited about, but at the same time with this being our first episode, we're kind of in a different studio, lights are off. This being our first one, it's very nerve-wrecking. But my wife and I, we have two beautiful beautiful daughters, Sirulean Bell, and Scotty Jolie. And with me, who is the producer of the show. He will also be very pivotal for the show is Sherman Young. Sherman, would you like to introduce yourself?

Hello, my name is Sherman. A producer here at Bus and With the Boys, I'll be producing on the show, talking a little bit with Will. I help produce on the bus as well, do some edits in the back of the bus with the boys. And it's been like two, almost two years now that been with Bus and with the Boys. You guys, you brought you in Jilly Bean. Shout out Jilly Bean. Shout out, oh yeah, a little bit about me, played one year of high school football, arguably two. Married for a year and some change to my wife, Jilly Bean, or Jill Young.

In future dad, I have a baby on the way, and I have some news on that. So I don't want to, like, spoil it. But I got some, you got some updates? I got some breaking updates. But you guys came up from Texas. Came up from Texas from Fort Worth. Alito to be more specific if you're from the DFW area. And yeah, just kind of was sending memes and stuff on Twitter to Will and Taylor.

And barraging, we have Garrett here too that's helping us with the cameras. Was in Garrett's DMs, everybody's DMs, just Bussin, please hire me. I've been in like film production for quite a while and then commercial production. as well, did some directing and producing, and we'll get into that. Yeah, you have a badass creative mind, and you crush it with Bustin with the Boys. You're going to crush it for the dads. I feel like you're positive energy that I feel like people have gotten glimpses of. I'm very excited for you to kind of co-host this show with me.

Going into the day was incredible. Jill's a nurse. She is always prepared for the worst because she knows what the worst can be. and we know that every single birthing experience is different every delivery experience is different we've got to hear about Will's 48 hour scenario

48 hour labor with sweet Charles sitting at 4 centimeters and that texting you said we're at 4 centimeters right now I truly I texted Will because we get yeah let's skip to that I'll skip to that point we we falsely

We both fell asleep the very first night. So we get in there. I was blessed with a recliner chair. You son of a bitch, I know. You had a recliner? I didn't even want to say it. Are you even a Papa Seal? Not.

If you didn't sleep on the couch? If you have your masters in Papa Team 6, I am quite literally freshman year of my undergrad in Papa Team 6. We need to make something where you can put like the little patches. Oh, yeah. And so you almost know, like, Oh, he experienced the couch. You're a five-star general.

That's what I'm saying. You ain't going to get that patch. No, I'm a private. I'm a buck private in Poppin' Team 6. And I'm sitting in my... You got to skip the line. You get a recliner. Hey, let me say this.

Good for you. I am happy for you. I am a little envious. Yeah, yeah. And a lot of dads out there and swinging at the air right now, pounding on their steering wheel. Oh, yeah. He didn't have to sleep on a couch.

I sent it to the boys in the... I have a college group chat. Shout out Mike Evans. They'll know what that means. But I sent that picture of the recliner. I'm sure some of those dads in there. What the fuck? Fuck.

It's almost like that's how you earn your stripes. Oh, yeah. Now, that was the delivery room. I will say post-delivery room, no recliner. Couch was terrible. How long were you in this post-delivery room? Oh, a full day into the night and then another full day to about 7 p.m. So you slept on the couch.

Slept on the couch. Are you lying to me? Not lying to you. Are you lying to you? I can call Jill if I need to- You slept on the couch? She might tell you that I slept too much on the couch. Okay.

All right. She might tell you that I slept too much on the couch. Buddy, anytime we FaceTime, you look vibrant. That's what I'm saying. What did somebody? Somebody on here. Yeah, Sean was like 12 hours is insane. You talking about how you slept 12 hours last week.

my nine-month-old boy's teething right now and we woke up six times last night it's all part of it hope everything goes well Sherm. Hey, let you know Sean it sounds like everything went very well for our boy for our boy Sherm. Sherms doing great. You mentioned you got a manny Petty while you were in there?

I did. Hey, we had the Roku stick. Huge dad hack. We brought the Roku stick in there so we could stream. Smart. It was incredible. We got Tommy Boy rolling on the TV. Jill had never seen Tommy Boy.

shout out Tommy boy. Nice. But Jill's overall note was, I want to have fun and keep the mood light going into labor. That is my only assignment to you, Sherman,

is I want to keep it light. And I don't know people that follow me on Twitter, Instagram saw that college football hype video style. I put it to Scrilla. Oh, buddy, it was awesome.

I loved watching it. Made that hype video. I didn't show it to her right before delivery, as I'm sure people that saw that. We're reading it. Go this fucking.

My question I have is, was she the one filming you? She wanted to, yeah. She wanted to film me. Okay. So that shot. When you're sitting there in your headphones and going on, like, laughing to myself thinking, are they at the hustle right now? And it's like, hey, Jelly Bean. You might, you might just hit a little recording for me as I just kind of sit with my headphones on.

There's four people in the waiting room watching it go down, too. And they're probably looking at us like, these fucking idiots, they brought. Just a quick time out. Are people hearing this? I would assume they hear the rain, but not to the degree that would be like... It's pretty loud. Right now it is. Right now it is.

But even with the AC that was like running in the back, oh, it just got even louder. I know. I know. We might want to wait for it to die down just a little bit, or we can press on. Take five? We can take five, but we got to keep it under an hour. Fuck. All right.

We're back. Sorry for the quick interruption. It was, as a dad would say, it was raining cats and dogs outside. It was raining cats and dogs outside. If you see, I got some, I got some rain on me right now, but we had to adapt. We had to improvise. We had to overcome, as is parenting. Yes.

Welcome to For the Dad's new studio. Yeah, yeah. We had to just get on the bus because it helps with the sound. As the rain was getting so loud, I don't know if you guys were hearing it in your audio, but it gets so loud. Shurm's voice gets a little bit more faint. So we had to make a picture. pivot. We had to make a call because we got to keep this under an hour. We got to keep it under an hour. I told Jill

230 it's 143. Yeah. We'll keep it. We'll keep it under an hour. And if not, you know, it, I don't want to talk hypotheticals. I don't talk hypotheticals. I don't talk hypothetical. Addy, I love you. I'm going to make it to that. But if you're home at 237, that's fine. It's a dad loss. Dad loss. Good for the show. Great for the show. But we had to make a change. So we're in a different studio right now. We're on the Bustin with the Boy Studio. I appreciate you tuning in. Make sure you subscribe. But sometimes you got to adapt on the environment, the elements get to you.

Yeah. We got some elements. Sometimes you're going to want to be at a pool thinking you're going to be at the pool for about four hours and it's going to cut short and go to two because someone's losing their mind. I'm talking to you, Roo. But carry on with your story. I kind of forgot where we were.

But I did have a what of the odds. Oh, you have a what are the odds. I had a water of the odds. I had a water of the odds. Shout out the partner fan do on the background. But I had a one of the odds. What are the odds that Jill stayed at Fort? I guess I'm like going on.

Oh, is that Mitch? No, it's Matt. Yeah, we're recording. Hey, shout out, Matt. Entered Matt. What are the odds that Jill sat at four centimeters over under an hour? What are the odds that you had an incredibly smooth,

delivery one that a lot of parents would be jealous of one that people legitimately would get angry about like when i facetime to you uh yesterday and you were checking in on the fam and yeah how to go blah blah like a part of me it hurt a part of me to tell you how our experience went because it was so good which is what everybody wants which is what everybody if you have an experience like i'm thinking like mind like who knows how it's going to go in there then you hear how great everything was if if anything as a dad i don't want to tell charo how smooth it went yeah because she's going to be i'm just kidding she's going to no no but no but truly i mean for some of these moms and stuff like they get there too late they don't get their epidural yeah but everybody everybody hopes for the of course

the liver you're about to tell us about of course and jill i mean absolutely kills it my one of my favorite moments I'll never forget is we both fall asleep. Jill, though, is like sleeping in hour intervals or like an hour 30 interval because nurse is coming in and checking her. Yeah. Because they gave her the induction in the mouth. And I forget the name of that pill. But that's not the potocin. Potocin. It's not the, it's the one before Potocin. Pre-Petocin pill. So they give her pre-potosin pill. It didn't really do anything. So, during the middle of the night, while I'm snooze on recliner being dad of the year, they...

Hey, sweetheart, I just edited up this video. You did a great job. I'm going to pass off. Which is literally what I did. You good over there? You might have I get some... You're doing great. I'm doing great. But I'm dying.

Hey, it's us, the Jonas brothers. And guess what? We have some big news. What's the news? Huge news. We created our own podcast called... Hey, Jonas. We invented a podcast?

Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to... We're the first people to do. podcasts. Pretty, yeah, a wide range of podcasts throughout there.

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 and, oh, 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. Another podcast from some SNL late night comedy guy, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smigel and Friends. Me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman helped 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. Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and friends on the I-heart Radio app,

Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The story I've told myself about love or relationships can then shape my behavior and that can lead me to sabotage the possibility of connection. This mental health awareness

this month, tune into the podcast deeply well with Debbie Brown and explore the journey of healing, self-discovery, and returning to yourself. We explore higher consciousness, emotional well-being, and the practices that help you find clarity, peace, and self-mastery in a world that can feel overwhelming. The world is becoming lonelier. We're not becoming more social and connected. We're becoming more individualized, but we actually meet people in connection. If you've been searching for a soft place to land while doing the work to become whole. This podcast is for you to hear more. Listen to deeply well with Debbie Brown from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the IHeart

Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. I'm in the recliner doing this. I'm going like this here in the bed. I'm holding their hand. I like truly was so comfy, dude. It's kind of insane. How well it was set up. And this is you in the recliner.

Yes. Just me in a recliner with Jill brought these like silk pillows and I have a barefoot dreams blanket. Like I'll tell you what you hand you like your survival kit was ready to go. Because of jilly me. I mean, Jill was so freaking dialed dude. And when we have more time, I want to do a full survival kit breakdown to everybody because it looked like we're going on a two week vacation with those bags that we were bringing in. We use every single thing we brought. And I swear to God we did

Because the luggage, it may look like that was all clothes It was really like a ton of gear Burp gloss diapers What's it called a preemie diaper? Because Scarlett was tiny Five pounds, seven ounces When she came out Five pounds seven ounces

She's smaller than a baby doll And so we're having to use the preemie Diipies and all this stuff But we'll do that another time And like, that could even be a great, like, if Jill wanted to do a call in or something of going through a survival. We need to have the wives on. Yeah. People calling for it.

It's going to happen. Yeah. Jill's survival kit was nuts. So, dude. And so, like, we really were set up for the absolute worst that, thank God, never happened. And so my favorite moment was waking up at, like, 6 a.m. And it was truly like the scene in saving private Ryan where he loses his hearing on the beach and that guys and says it what do we do now sir jill's like over me

netflix says are you still watching blah blah blah like on the screen and she's like honey um i'm contracting i yeah yeah yeah and i get out of the recliner she's doing the so what unbeknownst to me in the middle of the night that thing that they put in her mouth they then did it in the downstairs later that night to see how that would go well she went from two, she showed up two centimeters dilated. And for the dads at home, that's just the cervix, which is kind of the gate that the baby has to go through to enter into the opening where the baby's going to come out.

So she shows up at a two. That little thing that they inserted got her to a four. Nurse comes in, checks her. She's at four centimeters. In my head, I go, oh, bud. Because we have a family friend that's at four centimeters as well for a long time. Not as long as Charo, but a long time. So I hear four centimeters.

I think of you and I think of our family friend. I text you and I say, we're at four centimeters. And in my head, it's like, we're at four centimeters. We're at four centimeters. I'm just like, oh, no. That's like, oh. The trigger number. Oh, please, please.

So then they hit her with the potosin. We go about three or four hours. All of a sudden, Jill is like, I really feel pressure. Like, Sherman, I feel pressure. And it feels like I need to poop. and they say that if you feel like you need to poop, you're going to have your baby. And so she tells the nurse, it's only been three hours since the potosin. So nurse is kind of like, we'll get the midwives in here in a little bit.

We'll have them check you. And then she kind of stopped and she looked at Jill and she was like, how much pressure? And Jill was like a lot of pressure. Well, she gets her flashlight out, goes underneath the hood, goes, we'll get the midwives. Midwives come in. They go fully dilated. She went from four to ten in three hours. Oh my God.

Four to 10 centimeters in three hours. The White Walkers were at the wall. At the wall. And this watcher on the wall was having to get in the zone in that moment. It was like everything stops. And thankfully, Jill had kind of like trained me and put me through the ringer to know what to expect. So.

Do you have your coffee? No, didn't have coffee the entire time I was there. But the one thing that I forgot to say, dude is Jill was like I want to feel some of the contractions before I get the epidural. But Sherman, it's your job. Make sure that I get on that epidural. I don't want to miss it. Blah, blah, blah.

When she was sitting at 4 and like contracting really hard, like before they came in to say she was at 10, she's like, I don't know. Should I get on the epidural? I'm like in my head like Rocky 2 or Rocky 4, throwing the damn towel. Like I'm sitting there going, take it. the epidural right now. Why are we weighing? She's like, I want to finish my yogurt because I can't eat after I have epiduror.

That's what that week takes. I got the yogurt. I'm force feeding your yogurt. I'm like, finish this freaking yogurt because you, like, girl, you got to get the epidural. We get the epidural. They come in. She's at a 10. We got to start pushing.

Right before we're about to push, they're like, hey, we don't have an OR room open for Jill in case things go south. So we have to suspend pushing as long. long as we can, Jill, until an OR room, an operating room, opens up in case things go south. In the meantime, would you want anesthesiologists to come in and give you another hit? Because it seems like you have a lot of discomfort. Jill is like, yes, that was the biggest blessing in disguise. They came in, dude, and mainlined some stuff into Jill.

And Jill gives me that look after 15 minutes of getting mainlined with whatever they put in that cocktail. she's like I'm ready to push I I feel good like I'm ready to go and they came in they tell her hey you're going to do three pushes per round it looks like this dad you're going to hold feet the other nurse is going to hold the other foot you're holding feet so you're south of the wall I was a watcher on the wall I had I was able to see south of the wall where the white walkers were coming and I was or sorry north of the wall where the white walkers are coming and south of the wall so I was able to see both

concentrating on Jill but also like interested in seeing what's going on down there because midwife was like Dad if you want to look baby's head is literally right there that was before we even started pushing and it's because little Scarlet's so small

dude she just positioned well positioned well she knew her role she knew her role she was like I'm ready we're doing this right now I do I've never been more proud of Jill Jill was such a gangster dude, like such a stud during the pushing. She did four rounds of three pushes.

And each time, like on the third push, I'd be like, there's not a shot in hell she's going to give it what she did the first two. The third one would always be the strongest. Scarlett would move the most on the third one. You would hear the midwives go, good, there it is, there it is. And I'm sitting there. And I'm like, Jill's a beast, dude. She just covered in sweat.

and each time just taking the biggest breast and and just bearing down I was like God I'm so proud of her like she's freaking killing it and then on the fourth round of pushes Scarlet came out on the third round midwife looks at her right before we start the fourth round of pushes and looks at Jill and goes hey it's a really cool moment for moms

that I can get her out very easily I'm not worried I'm going to get her to her torso and you can reach down and physically pull her up if you want to do that. Are you interested in that, Jill? And Jill was like, yeah, I want to do that. She was like, okay, when I tell you, you reach it down, you'll grab her and you just bring her to your chest. And on that third push, they got Scarlet out to her torso. She was holding her umbilical cord like Batman doing his, you know, a little gun. She comes out like this. And Jill just reached down there and grab Scarlett and brought her to her chest. It was unreal. Dude, that is incredible. I'm looking at my

wife like, who are you? Like, that's so sick. Isn't it, uh, isn't it wild seeing your wife go through that? Yes. And I told her like beforehand, I don't know because I don't know childbirth, but I'm like, if there's anybody that can do it, it's you. Like, she's such a pusher. She's such a grinder. She like, yeah, she just has that mentality. But she also has a lot of fearfulness and anxiety. Yeah. And beforehand, I was like, if anybody's got it, it's you. You're going to destroy this. And then to see her go out on the field and perform like you think she's going to. Make a coach proud. Make a coach proud, dude.

And then that moment was Scarlett, man. I can send you some picture, chef, if you want to put it on the episode. Dude, I'm Waterworks, obviously. Y'all saw me last week. Dude, it was amazing. Yeah, man, listen. You just got to have Jocco Willink in the back of your head. When something's going wrong, good.

when you're feeling sleepy, you only got two hours of sleep, good. Get my ass out of bed. When the baby's not going down and you're on duty, good. You might think Jill, she took a little walk. Maybe she's going to something to take care of herself, right? Yeah, yeah. And you think the kid's going to go down, okay, here's a three-hour window that they get to sleep. Maybe I can close my eyes.

They don't go to sleep. You don't get your nap. You got to think. Good. I'm covered in shit. Yes. Good. Shit on me more.

More. Fucking good. Bombing on me. I dare you. Oh, you did it. Oh, you shit again. I fucking love your enthusiasm. Oh, good.

I'll change your diaper. I'll change that shit again. Diaper trash kids overflowing. Good. Wife's yelling at you because there's a rash now in the baby's ass because you wiped it so hard because you were pissed off. Good. Be softer.

Put the cream on afterwards. Dogs are pissed off because they're getting. less attention so they're starting to pee on stuff so you finally pay attention to them. Good. Kid finally goes down. Dog wakes up. They're making a lot of loud noise. Wicks the baby up.

You go to chase the dog to give it a little to give it a little discipline. Dog outruns you. Runs outside out the front door. You can't get the dog. You got to go chase him on the road. You can't find him. Good. Good.

You got to embrace the suck, Sherm. That shit is going to happen. I know you got those dogs. And Sherms always yelling at me at the front door. Keep him in. Keep him in. I hope those dogs outrun your ass too. And they do every time.

And you're pissed off. And think of me. I'm ready. And don't you dare send the text saying you can't show up for the dads. Because I'm just going to say, hey, this is what we prepared for. No. Good. Good. Get your punk ass in here.

I'm going to be on that bus. Yeah. Every Monday. Yeah. I'm going to be here for For the Dads. Good. Good. By the way, I was thinking of maybe a couple, some squad names out there.

Of the listeners or of us? The listeners and like all of us. Okay. There's a couple that's kind of, you know, you got, Papa Team 6. Hey, how about just going off the brotherhood, the fatherhood? And you just get like, you know, you know the hats, how it says the Lou and it's upside down?

Yeah. We just get like fatherhood and it's upside down. And that's how you know you're like part of the fatherhood. Okay. I like that one a lot. Papa Team 6 is strong. Papa Team 6 to where you can just refer to yourself like, oh, that's a Papa Seal. That's a Papa Seal.

That's somebody who sent Seaman Team 6 down there and got the job done. Now he's a Papa Seal. And his heart's black as hell. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can tell he's been through some military tours. And what I mean by military tours is he's been on some road trips. He's been on some vacations without any childcare. Yeah.

You can see it in his eyes. So just a couple thoughts. Those are a couple thoughts. I love both of those. I love the fatherhood hat upside down. Our merch team was on the phone with me last week, and they were pitching some upside down stuff too. Like, they're one to go heavy into it. Yeah.

I think it's badass. Maybe we let the listeners aside. Maybe we let some comments decide. Ooh, yeah. If you have an opinion on whether we should call this audience, this group of dads, this community, the fatherhood, or Papa Team 6 With it I kind of like my Papa Team 6

Before coming into this I love I love the fatherhood Hey he's part of the fatherhood If there's like a hierarchy You're a real sicker If you're Papa Team 6 Yeah yeah He's part of the fatherhood

But I don't know if he's Papa Team 6 yet Yeah Papa Team 6 because there's some play on stuff there With Papa Team 6 again it's like Hey that's a Papa Seal How do you know he's a Papa Seal? because he sent in Seema Team 6. You got to check his stats. He became a man, yeah.

Yeah, yeah. If he's going around telling people he's popping Team 6, he's probably not popping Team 6. Yeah. Those are the guys that stick out. They're at the bar. Let us know in the comments. Sure.

Do you want to say what happened? I would love to say what happened. I owe an apology to Will Compton. And for people listening and watching, a big deal did just go down. Like a huge deal. A deal where it's like, Like, I don't know how to react right now because we still have to record our show and we have to bring the juice and I have to bring the juice and we have to be optimistic.

Yes, dude. Because you're my mate, dude. Yeah. You're my teammate in the squadron. I'm in the foxhole with you. You're in the foxhole with me, bro. Quite literally. And you said.

And to be in the foxhole with somebody, you got to know that the guy you're in the foxhole with has your back. has every angle covered if that's their role. And I... I... Hey, it's us, the Jonas Brothers, and guess what? We have some big news. What's the news, name?

Huge news. We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to a... We're the 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 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. 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. Another podcast from some SNL, late-night comedy guy, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smigel 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. Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and Friends on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The story I've told myself about love or relationships can then shake my behavior, and that can lead me to sabotage the possibility of connection. This Mental Health Awareness Month, tune into the podcast deeply well with Debbie Brown and explore the journey of healing, self-discovery, and returning to your life. yourself. We explore higher consciousness, emotional well-being, and the practices that help you

find clarity, peace, and self-mastery in a world that can feel overwhelming. The world is becoming lonelier. We're not becoming more social and connected. We're becoming more individualized, but we actually meet people in connection. If you've been searching for a soft place to land while doing the work to become whole, this podcast is for you to hear more. Listen to deeply well Debbie Brown from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Pax you on the back and you shit in my hand. Yeah, maybe you patted me on the back a little too much.

But I haven't. We did the performance reviews last week. I know. And that went well. We talked about details and we talked about structure. And we talked about my weakest point. The fine details. And having it.

written down. Having it written down. But this was something that doesn't need to be written down. This is something that does not need to be written down. It's right up there with breathing in the production world, I would say. Or drinking enough water.

Papa Team Six, moms, dads, Seaman Team Six, C Team Six, need to know as they're listening to this. I'm very frustrated. Yeah. I need to talk about my feelings. It makes me angry. I think this is healthy.

And I feel alone. When you do behaviors like that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Tell them. Well, first off, I would love to create a safe space for Will to continue to get this off his chest because I feel like that's the best way to deal with it. To dive right in, I forgot to hit the record button on both audio and video. We were recording for how long, Chef?

Chef has a mic, by the way. Chef, who is the leader of Seaman Team 6 at the moment, he has a mic now. being able to chime in so you don't have to hear them from far away. We were going about 45 minutes. Great job of keeping it under an hour. We were just about to keep it under an hour. It was potentially maybe the first time ever. We were on the lesson.

45. The episode was almost done. Will was getting into his lesson. I look over at the audio and the video and I see no red light like I do now to where it's rolling. We recorded for 45 minutes. And it was so much fun. And it was going so well. And Cherm stands up.

And he's like grinning at chef, like pointing down at the little, what's that called? Zoom recorder. A little Zoom recorder. I look over a show. I'm like, what's up? And he's like, I didn't hit record. So I'm like, so we didn't get anything that we just, the last 45 minutes, nothing? Nothing.

He's like, chalked up to the wind. He's like, I. I'm so sorry. Why, Dan, I just. If I can add, it was dead silent for maybe five minutes. Yeah. No one spoke. That's a long time around here, too.

Yeah. Because we got a lot of talkers, especially in this room. Because it's Friday right now. It's pizza Friday. It's supposed to be up. All this shit that goes down in the shop. This is the safe space. This is the space that it's like, get to go have some fun.

get to go have some fun with my boy with your boy that light you down I'm the one that stuck the night thing we play video games but don't get to see all week you're your bright light in the shop

yeah and I just came in I shit in your hand quite literally and I'm stuck because I'm like I have to accept this and get over it as fast as possible

because we still have to record for the dads yeah we still have to have fun yes we still have to tell people to subscribe. We still have to read, reread all the great comments we

loved in the comments section about Papa Team 6 because Papa Team 6 is growing. And we got to tell the same story again, but that's okay because they're really good stories and I would love to hear it again. And just say shout out, this is not getting points from

Will. You have recovered very well. You 10 minutes ago is a different you right now. You you've recovered. How do you feel on a scale of one to ten? I don't know, dude. You look like a...

Feel in what way? Like, we're talking like good mood? Well, no, just able to go. Because you look like a seven, like a high seven right now. Good. I believe it. Hey, he didn't hit record. Good.

The guy that you put a ton of trust in to make sure everything operates. And he failed you? Good. Good. Oh, hey, Papa Shirm, who said he was going to show up at 8.30 and get with Chef to go over the details and structure and line out of process of the show. So there's no mishaps. Sherm didn't show up at 830. What time do you show up? I don't know what time you showed up.

It was like 9.10. Guess what? Your boy doesn't show up. Good. Instead, he sends you a picture of a raccoon in a cage on his roof saying victory. Good. Good. He's trying to wheezel away out of why he was. I texted Sherman back when he sent me that. I was like,

great creative way of letting me know that you're not here at the shop by the time you said you'd be at the shop. True. Worst part of that is I didn't even know what time it was. To which I replied to your text, fuck. Yeah.

Vives are up, man. Vives are still up. Vibes are still up. Bybes are still up. God. Do you want to get into comments? Yeah, let's read some comments. There's a lot of dads.

A lot of dads are out there wondering how to navigate. It's a slippery slope, especially when you get mid-season, your team starts catching some momentum or they're bad or you're in a bad mood because your team lost. Yes. And they feel like the wifey should be empathizing with where you're at mentally. Can't watch the kids. My boy's just lost right now.

How can you not see how serious I take this? Fantasy football drafts. That's one that sneaks up on me that I need to do a better job of coming up, dude. Yeah. That's coming up. I think number one, the God tier tip or dad hack, whatever you want to call it. Yeah, yeah. It's just the communication, the pre-communication ahead of time.

Communication, dude. Sweetheart, we know you hate football season. And maybe she's like, you know, I don't hate it. This is if your girl doesn't like football season. That's what I was going to say earlier. Even if they kind of like it. Like my wife's bought into football, but I always jab her like she's not real football fan. Like she went to Maryland. Like, Maryland's not that good at football. So I can see why

she's not good at his little brother. She cheered at Washington, but I'm always like, hey, Washington's on. Why aren't we, me and you just watching this game, every snap, every player. You're not a real fan. But then she'll like, throw, she knows, you know, she always proves. She knows the rules. She knows some players, blah, blah, blah, but I'm always jabbing her about it. So even if your wife is kind of on board with football, you know the difference between a diehard and then just a casual, or they're not a fan at all. Yeah. But even the casuals is for casuals and even not a fan. annoyed about football. You still want to anchor the emotion with sweetheart. We both know you hate football season. Then they, no, no, I don't hate football season. Just, just please, please let me finish.

I want to talk with you now because we both know how much I love the Nebraska Cornhuskers. And there are going to be some, every Saturday, they're going to play at a slot of time. I don't know everyone, but each week when I figure out when they're playing, I would love to have my undivided attention be on that game. Maybe you're a sicko and you want to watch a lot of the games. You have to do a good job of being like, here's what I would love my season to look like. I know that's not going to happen. And I would love your input on how we can execute to balance football season with life.

With what we're doing. Yeah, yeah, with what we're doing. Because I enjoy watching the game. I could watch them all day. All day. If I had the opportunity to. But I know that I need to carry the load. I know that I need to be present.

And I just want to figure out a great middle ground that we can align on as we go into the season. Because I got a draft coming up next week. I want to be there. I kind of want to tell them the time. I'm kind of scared to commit to a time with them because part of me is scared to allow this draft to sneak up. up on us and then I'm throwing the draft at you. Hey, the boys were drafted in an hour. And then we're both in a little bit of a tiff. And I'm thinking, I can't. I'm drafting right now. I want to knock it out of the way now. I want to knock it out of the way early. How can we align on a structure throughout the year?

A structure that doesn't have to be so dialed into the T, I know there's going to be moving obstacles and moving targets throughout the year. We'll handle those. But as long as we're aligned, as long as you know where my love and my heart is with you, with the game, I think we can figure something out. Well done. You just sold me. Yeah, well set. I think that's your baseline.

Yeah, you got to have a starting base line, dude. Because you can't commit to what you want your schedule to be out of the gate. You're getting in some hot water. You're already awakening the defense inside of your wife. Yeah. You want to set up your success by first anchoring the emotion of, we both know you hate football or we both know that you hate how much I love football. Give them a chance to step in and say, that's not true.

Because it's a balance, right? It probably has a lot to do with yours trying to watch all these games and you're not, there's zero intention going on around the house and you're waiting to the day of and then you guys are in a reactive state of emotion. No, you're handling it by having a little fun anchor in the top. We both know you hate that I love football. and then you lay out how can we align on what this year can look like? Because here's what's important to me.

Outside of you guys being priority number one, my draft coming up with the boys, watching my favorite college football team on Saturdays, watching my favorite NFL team on Sundays. Prime time, prime time. We got Thursday night football, we got Sunday night football, we got Monday night football. I know that sounds like a lot right now, sweetheart,

but I know that if we just take it, if we just go one by one here and figure out what a solution can be i know we can knock this out of the park and pick pick your golden game pick that one game that you really want to see whatever you want to watch and it for your example of like the nebraska corn huskers are playing around the same time as christie's gender reveal party that y'all have to go to and christie is charro's best friend in the world so set that expectation of, I'm not going to make that. You think I'm joking?

No. No, I don't think you're joking. Charles threw a birthday party for me last year. It was Illinois at Nebraska. We lost in overtime. But charl through a birthday party for me on my birthday to where we had a dinner. We had about eight people come to this dinner. Please send him the photo.

Do what? Send them the photo. I'll send him the photo. And I needed the restaurant that you're going to that you're wanting to, I don't think it was a surprise. but whatever restaurant it is, they better have a TV. And if we're going to do a private room, they better have a TV that can be in that room

because I am watching the Nebraska Cornhuskers play on Friday night. And the entire dinner party, everybody's having a great time. And I'm just glued to the TV, and I set the expectation with everybody that, guys, I'm not going to be mingling at dinner because I have to watch Nebraska play. They wheeled it up like on one of those like, A substitute teacher No, I saw the picture

It was dicey for a minute They wheeled in some TV And I'm like, are we going to be able to get The game on this? It looked like the ones back in school. Yeah. The sub rolls in movie day. Yes.

Fortunately, we got it. But if not, I would have been just on my phone just on YouTube TV. Dude, I brought up the tailgate and the tick thing. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. There was an older boy who bullies. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Yeah. Roo was part of the crew that he bullied. And I'll, you know, the boy's lucky that I didn't see the part on Rue. I saw the part where he took the glasses off of like Rue's best friend. He was like going around and kind of like grabbing and shaking. There's like three of them. Shakes each one of them runs around. I just hear, hey, stop. And I kind of like, I kind of like, I kind of like.

look down the hill he runs over did i say the uh the girl's name no you did not okay if i did make sure to bleak that out yeah you 100% didn't and then goes back to the girl ruse friend and i i once i hear hey stop and i kind of look back and the boy runs by again and like grabs her glasses and she's like stop and ruz just kind of like standing there all shy kid ends up say stop and i was like hey and the kid ends up like running up the hill i think he still has a glass i'm like hey buddy he didn't have the glass he keeps running uh the kids start crying a little bit so i go over to them you know the parents were all over uh we're like calming him down and everything else what happened

blah blah blah and dude i'm just boiling as like did that shit just happened i'm thinking this is why we're going to do Brazilian jiu jihitsun there there's nothing that breaks your heart more than seeing bullying happen with the little kids. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because you know they're just kids. Yeah. And this kid was old enough to know what he was doing. And at the kid, the boy at his age was old enough to know what he was doing.

Are we talking like seven or eight? Yeah. Oh, wow. I think so, yeah. He was a little taller. Yeah, he was older. And we start like the other two kids, they're crying. Roo's not crying yet.

And I'm walking over and I look at Rue. and I'm just like, I just kind of like shake my head, no, like don't, you know, hey, it's okay. You don't need to start crying because the others are crying. I kind of like shake my head, no. And like, you okay? And as I do that, and she starts like, you know, wincing up and she starts crying. And so I pick her up and everything. I didn't, at that moment, I didn't know that he had shaken or bullied Rue.

So I was kind of pissed for. Hey, it's us, the Jonas brothers. And guess what? We have some big news. What's the news? Huge news. 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. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there. But this one's extra special. So 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. 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.

The world is becoming lonelier. We're not becoming more social and connected. We're becoming more individualized, but we actually meet people in connection. If you've been searching for a soft place to land while doing the work to become whole, this podcast is for you to hear more. Listen to deeply well with Debbie Brown

from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. The other kid, the one that I saw the glasses come off of. And I'm quiet. I'm low-key trying to figure out who the kid, like where the kid is. He like runs up. He's like playing somewhere else or like see who the parents might be.

Yeah, yeah. Not to go say nothing. There's just a multitude of conversations going on in my head. Yeah. Like what would I have done had that been rude that I saw him do that too? Because, you know, not that I would have done anything, but you're also thinking like, I don't know what I would do. Yeah.

Because I started to like go towards a kid as he's running away when I was like, hey, buddy, because I thought he still had the glasses. Why don't you give her glasses back to her? Or like, again, I don't know. There's too many things that go on in my head. Yeah. That fires you up as a parent in the moment. We end up leaving because there's like a meltdown and everything else.

Oh, we've been here a while. Like, let's get the kids home. Scotty, she's in her, we can't like let her out because she's in like, her, she's in her shroller. There's like gravel and everything else that we're kind of on. We go home and we get a text that it happened again with the kid. And then something kind of goes down with the kid and the parent got awkward and weird and they kind of leave. But maybe the kids going, maybe the kid's projecting. Who knows? Who knows? But anyway, a bully. I witnessed a bully moment that Root was kind of part of. And I did not know. It kind of had me not worked up,

But it had me thinking about it, like the rest of the evening. Those are truly like the two things that I think like guys almost fantasize about is either like a home intruder and what they would do or if somebody was bullying their kid. Yeah. I'd love to see somebody coming to my house. Yeah. Yeah. I love to see somebody. If kids mean to you, that doesn't give you permission to be me back to him.

I mean, to where my line of thinking is like, I'll go with that for now. but everything's a little circumstantial. And I'm like, Brazilian jiu-jitsu. Once we're in the A-Gab, we don't know what's going to happen. Right. Like, yeah, if the kids mean to you, it doesn't give you the right to be mean back. But we got to figure out a way to where you're not going to allow somebody to be mean to you. And I don't know what that is.

Again, I'm very new. I'm learning at this stuff. It's like it's one of those things where I'm very slow to speak because I don't have my thoughts in order and how I feel about it or what should actually be done or how I should be teaching through those things because I didn't really tell Rue a whole lot. Just making sure she's like okay and everything else. But I'm sitting there like trying to figure out, yeah, like what if this does happen? What if I'm not there? What if this? What if that? How do I need to be coaching or teaching this or give her confidence to, you know, be a certain way? But yeah, witness the first bully.

That gets me riled up. That gets me riled up. and fantasies of just sideline tackle drill on this kid oh oh just a great angle gronk trying to run across the border of the the woods that they were playing in just boom way to the woods truly envisioned you chasing down gronk to the sideline beating him to the sideline yeah yeah i'm like not even though what to say i'm over here like pinching my my fingers and stuff and moving my hands around because i'm like i know this is uh murky waters to be to be speaking on but who is the father he he isn't listening to my podcast i can promise you that oh this your boy

that just mocked on the sideline when ever you did come say something i become the bully just an awful example in front of the kids i'm gonna have a little dude eat through it too oh good deal daddy was to come say something me me me in the ring. Circle around, children. Turn on the headlights, pull the cars up. This is how you want to dial,

man. Oh my God. The dad just has no idea of like what had happened. It's just one of those like Patagonia best with like a coffee just chill dude. Yeah. Yeah. As soon as he finds out his son was being a little shithead. He's like the poor kid, you almost, you're almost like, hey, you know, praying to God,

the kid's going to be able to be. alive. I don't know if you guys ever seen that. You had a buddy who, rightfully so, the parents mad and they're going home and you're like, shit. A lot of times too, it's like, again, with being a young boy, like with the kid, they're kids. And if I'm the parent where Rue's the bully, I would want to be told because I would be pissed at Rue. Will is definitely one of the dads that like if I was, you know, like a friend of Ruse and I'm like hanging out with them and stuff, like I would be on extra good behavior because Will is the dad that's there.

Like I playing Little League or like being around other dads at that age. There are certain dads that you're like, oh, just scared up. They just give off that vibe of like, do not set off Mr. blah, not because they were a psychopath.

I was going to be a fun. You are. But there will be respect. There will be. Dude, I'm just telling you, like guys are going to, when they start coming to the age and like,

just knowing, you and knowing your personality type knowing maybe you played in the NFL for a little bit they're going to be like don't don't mess around with willy c yeah that's a good thing i feel like that's the that's my mom and me too my mom she didn't play no shit dude she didn't play no shit if we were acting up in school we were known as like hyper kids uh can't have will over he's a little too hyper but uh my mom did not mess around she wanted dirt she wanted real feedback for how her boys are being. Because if we were messing around in class,

if we weren't up, you know, progress reports, if we weren't dialed in, like she wanted to know not to blame it on anybody else other than the tan or ass at home. And not necessarily come from my mom, that'd be the old man, but it'd be a verbal lashing. Oh, yeah.

Because she didn't mess around. That's good. That's a good thing. Yeah. That's a good thing. Because part of me sitting there and I'm like, it's not the kid's fault. It's not the parents' fault.

Maybe it could be the parents' fault because the kids like whatever he's doing but i'm sure the parents would be upset the back their kid is it was doing x y and z so don't get mad at the parents like again there's so many things going on in your head that was going on in my head so i had a i had a crazy packed weekend it was really really good yeah you had uh you had scarlet on by yourself on saturday yeah on saturday uh which is going to be that's going to be the new norm with jill's work schedule I'm going to have solo Scarlet Saturdays. So it could just be a new thing on the show.

Which is nice. I'm loving it. I wanted to mix it up. I got an invite to the Stars Predators game. Go Stars. They caught the dub. I went with Cooper Comstock that's here in the shop. Round of a plus for Coom.

I saw that too. You guys, you know, you guys can always hit us up. if you need some help with getting tickets. Because I saw you like in the nose. Oh, oh, if we need help getting tickets. No,

no. You're saying like, hey, I saw the video, you know, I had a smile on my face. You do this and then you whip it around and I'm like, oh,

shit. We're in the bleeds. We're in the bleeds. But he's up there high up. We let our berries operate this way. I do like, I'm not trying to defend those seats. Like,

we bought them because they're cheap. But I love in hockey. the bleeds there on the, like, you're behind the goal. You're behind the net. I love those seats because you can truly see the offense develop. Look, if you don't want to bang on the glass and be in the front. I mean, hey, if you don't like those seats. No, I want to bang some glass.

Yeah. I'll fully take you up on that. I'm just letting you know. Okay. Just for future's sake. Whenever you go to a ball game, just think I wonder if the boys have any type of connection where we could get some seats. Hey, that's the type of ticket

that's going to keep you in somebody's pocket. It's going to keep you in somebody's pocket. That's a, that's PT6 fraternity right there. That is. That is. Yeah, I know that you would, by the way, that was a joke, the keep you in somebody's pocket. Yeah, I would not think that Will would do that.

Yeah, I know. Okay. Okay. But we were in the bleeds. Dude, Scarlet just absolutely enjoyed the hockey game. We can pull up that video. Will, I'm telling you the entire time she's literally like this. Fired up.

Oh, fully glued to the ice where I just had her sitting in my lap, like watching the game and I'm holding her arms. And she did not cry once. It was impeccable. So I'm sure that you're sitting there wondering why does Sherman have this under his dad losses? this game. I didn't know we were on the category of loss. I'm just weaving in. I'm sure you're wondering why I failed. Oh, hang on. What? How did Sherman screw this one up? Cooper Comstock, and I want to get his thoughts on this for a social clip, because I would love to hear him candidly when I'm not around his thoughts on what happened.

But he is a diehard stars fan, like a true sicko. This whole thing was his idea. I was with him and his girlfriend. Shout out of his girlfriend, Addy. She's incredible. I was helping watch Scarlett. They came to the house early because they knew I had to feed Scarlett at one in the games at 2.30. I pretty much had everything together,

but I couldn't find her headphones. So then Coops helping me on the changing table watching Scarlett. I'm digging through the headphones, like looking for him. Jill's at work. She finally tells me where they are because she knows where they are. I didn't. And you had to text her. Yeah, I texted.

Yeah. Shari, a little text. I hated that. That right there's a quick L. Yeah, that's a quick L. Yeah, that's never want to be the dad that's like, hey, where's this at? I do it all the time. But anytime I do it, it like pains me, I'm like, fuck.

And Coup's like, hey, we don't need to rush. It's all good. Game's at 2.30. It's all good. It's 1.15. Like, where is it? I know, Coop. Like, I don't want to miss this game.

That's a good teammate right there. That's a good teammate staying poised in the pocket. Great teammate telling me. me not distress. Addy's like playing with the dog. She's being so sweet with Scarlet. They both were really good with Scarlett being so sweet. We get out the door. We're driving. We got the Lollaby remix playlist. I have to put you on. It's called Rockabai Baby. Have you heard it? It's just it's all. Stay on course. Stay on course. Stay on course. Stay on course. Rockabai baby playlist is bumping. We're in the car. Vives are so high. We get to the

parking garage. We're about to be 10 minutes early for this game. I forgot the diaper bag. I forgot the diaper bag with the headphones, the blanket, the diapers, the bottle, the formula, the extra change of clothes in case she shits herself. Everything that is vital to this day being successful left it at the house. Get on StubHub to then transfer the tickets to Cooper Nattie so they don't have to live in my shame in my own personal health that I've created for myself

can't transfer the tickets we got to all walk in together and the you're a real piece of shit can I tell you the look of forgiveness on Coop's face that's when I knew like you really are a good friend

he was the entire time you don't you don't even worry about it it's all good what the game goes into extra periods hey free hockey we'll get to watch three periods if it goes into o t this this game could go into o t both these teams are good just sitting there trying to make me feel so good i'm literally death gripping the steering wheel out of embarrassment and then of course because we're in the car going there back there now scarlet's getting fussy so now you know the cries are starting to happen i'm just like now the cries are really oh my they're touching you

God, I'm just spiraling in the driver's seat. This is where you just staring at the road and you hear nothing. The crying's happening, but the cry starts fading because like a dog whistle noise you start coming in your ear as you're watching as you're looking at the road. Truly, bro, the amount of forgiveness that Coop showed me in that moment, how chilly was about everything, we still ended up, we did make great time. and we got there right at the end of the first period. So did we miss a period of hockey?

Yes, but we got to watch two more periods of hockey. The stars ended up coming back with four minutes left in the third and won. It was a great time. But golly, dude, I have never felt like such a bum. And guess who's always going to double check for the bag now? Always. You? I say that.

Do you say good? so many times and there's some more on here dog ran away in the front yard went to go get him as I'm coming back carrying him holding him going what are you doing what are you doing stepped in his poop

good good through those shoes away good because I was so pissed I just threw him didn't even want to clean them and porch pirates stole my dinner on what was that Sunday when I took good yeah you did text me you're like hey what was that number yeah we've we'll keep it tight

Yeah, we'll keep it tight. We don't know the enemy, which enemies are out there listening right now. And I know this is a kid, a kid show, but just a huge fuck you to porch pirates. Just wanted to say that. Apparently he had his entire meal dropped off within a minute. Three minutes of my meal being dropped off.

Porch pirates. Have to. Well, got to get a simply safe. Got to get a simply safe. Got to get it simply safe. We did. Hey, that's a tough beat over the weekend for getting the diaper bag.

Especially when you're rocking solo and you're like, I'm the guy. Like, ain't nobody coming. Hey, it's us, the Jonas brothers. And guess what? We have some big news. What's the news, news? Huge news.

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. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts. We're starting a trend.

But this one's extra special. So how do we actually come up? 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. 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, for 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.

Dylan Raola goes down. This is TJ Lateef time. And I could have come back to the office with that story just coming at me from all angles. Like Coop could have come back and just told everybody about what a fucking bum I was. And instead I have everybody coming up to me going,

dude, Coop said you were killing it. That's a good start. right there because you didn't just throw a pick six like you ran around the pocket a little bit and threw it across your body to the other side of the field like a muffin and somebody jumped and picked it off and took to the house everybody's watching like before he picked it off i hit him with a to the sideline i was letting him know yeah like oh kids kind of got it that says a lot about the character of cooper comstock he's a good man yes it does there's another instance yesterday i'm not going to name who it was but this person backed out

on an event with Coop. Coop wasn't going to say anything. Backed out on an event with Coop. Yeah, it wasn't his fault. And then he publicly told the office and all you hear Coop say was, I wasn't going to say anything. I was just going to let it,

let it all out because that's the guy Coop is. Coop's a foxhole guy. He is a foxhole guy. It's big ups to him too because he doesn't, he's not a parent, he doesn't have kids. Yes.

So you could get a magnitude, a range of reaction there. Yes. And it's so good with kids. so good with Scarlet. I need to see what he's like with a little Scotzilla. Oh, dude, he would kill. He loves babies.

And he's really good with him. He's like holding Scarlet as I would. Dude, Coup was so on it. Hey, any ST Sixers at home, when you go hang out with your PT6 friend that's got a kid, be a Cooper Comstock. When I'm going to go change my little girl's diaper, which that went awesome. Like, that was great. at the game, hey Sherman, what do you want to eat?

What do you want to drink? We'll go get food for you. I come back with freshly changed Scarlet. He's got my food. He's like, hey, let me hold Scarlet while you eat. I'm like, that's a, that's a bro. Right there, bro. That's an ST6.

That's a, that's an SD6 or you can be proud of, chef. It's a, life is starting to feel like this revolving door somewhat to me. Yeah. And not in a, like, bad way at all. But, like, I need to embrace. Just a grind. Yeah, I need to start to embrace it more. I know we, like, jokingly say good on this podcast,

which I can say that to, like, stepping in dog poop and stuff. Like, that's funny, you know. But, like, truly those moments of, like, why the hell am I sitting there on a Saturday that morning being like, there's literally nothing that I want to do less than go to the Stars game? Like, why do I feel like that? That just kind of bumps me out. I'm trying to like challenge myself to be like, I got to.

Like roll with the punches. Yeah. Yeah, I got to roll with the punch. I got to go live life. Something that I know I've said to you and I probably said on the show. And it's something I have to like say in my head so many times. But like it's such like a mental thing more. But you have to.

You don't have to. You get to. Yeah. Like, yeah, I'm always like, oh, dude, I have to do all this stuff when I get home. It's like, no, no, no. Like I live in a house that I really love with a woman that I really love and I get to do all these things. And I have to say it so many times that I get out of this. Like, oh, we got to, we have to go on this hike.

It sucks, but yeah, we get to go on this hike. And like, how cool is it that she's that close to her grandparents, ruin Scott? That shift of mentality is huge. That's, yes. Thank you, Derek. Thank you, Derek. That's nail on the head. Ugh, that's where I need to be.

That's truly where I need to be. I'm being dead serious, dude. This family right here. This is a community, this family. vibes right now. But I don't know how to, I don't know how to stop the rushing attack to the Christmas tree. Scotty's the same way. Scotty damn near, she did. She broke Roos first ornament. It's kind of cracked all over. So it's very sensitive. It will fall apart. We do have it back on the tree. It's hanging on for dear life right now. Yeah. But if it goes down again, it's over with. I don't

know what to do. I don't know what to do. Help me. Help me. Help me. I I don't know how to stop my child from grabbing the ornaments on the Christmas tree. I have this off. I have this off. How high can she reach? I mean, shit. She could probably reach like this high. And that's about three feet off the ground.

She can get to the lower part of the tree. You know what I mean? Like I know you get the ornaments up higher. But she's still grabbing at this stuff on the tree. And you just got to say, Scotty, gentle, gentle. And you're kind of approaching them slowly. Go ahead, Shirm. Okay, really quick solve.

Target has indestructible ornaments by the baby its own tree that it can fuck up and put the indestructible ornaments on it and just let them have it. Now, hang on. These indestructible ornaments, can you still take them off the tree? Oh, yeah. That's what I'm saying. What's wrong with that? Just ornaments all over the floor.

That's okay. got to hang them back on the tree. Main tree's still good. That's what parents are trying to still good. That's what parents are trying to figure out here is when the baby gets close to the tree and they got a hold of an ornament and you don't just want to snap, hey, stop. Sometimes I'll do that. Scott, Scotty. No, no, no. And you're approaching them like they're, like they have a gun on them. Yeah. Like Scotty, easy, gentle. And you slowly start walking towards them. Gentle. They start smiling a little bit. Easy. She starts bouncing. No, and then you grab them and just remove them from the situation.

And then you just hope you're sitting there playing your basketballing them, guard them so they don't get to the tree. And I just kind of guide her, go over there, go over there. Look at that over there. Go get the ball. And that's where the fake small tree comes in. Look at that little thing. Go fuck that thing up.

Okay. I see what you're saying. To me, no matter what, they're still ripping off. Like, if you get the indestructible ornaments, like, yeah, it sucks at the, that Ruse ornaments broken. But no matter what, she's ripping off. It's from the thing. Like, I still got to, I get on my hands and knees.

You got to put the little hook back in the thing. And then you put the ornament back on the tree. Well, that, okay. So what I, here's what I would do to explain it really quick. I would put a fence, like a dog type gate around real, real Christmas tree with breakable ornaments to distract child by $15 tree that's only like two feet tall, put a bunch of indestructible ornaments on it. and then that's what they're fucking up all the time.

Does that make sense? Yeah. I want to get a gate, a cage of some sort, and just put Scotty in it. Like every time she gets involved in something, she's climbing up on a step stool now. Like I'll look over and I just see her little head popping up from the island. And I'm like, Scotty, how'd you get over there?

I've told you you can't climb this. She gets around everything. She clears out every cabinet that has stuff. minute. Yeah. This is every day. And I tell Char every time, sweetheart, this is why I want to get a cage for. Get a little playpin. Yeah. She needs to be like, Uga during the SEC championship game to where she's just sitting in the kennel. You can't come out. Scott Zilla is Ugg. She is Ugga. Yeah. And Shep, I'm so sorry. Please, what was your thoughts on it?

This might be a bad idea. Okay. But as a kid, my parents under our tree, we had in a little root off the reindeer electronic train. It's a train that just goes around the tree. And maybe it's a little bit of a smoking mirrors thing that they're seeing like an actual moving train come around and she doesn't want to deep. They might, because for me and my little brother, that was never an issue.

I don't know if it's because we would turn on the train and watch it go around the tree. You're probably just scared of the trains. No, I don't think so. I think you're a pussy. You were probably, no, come on. You know he was like,

oh, I'm not going to get ran over by the train. My number one shows the kid was Thomas the Tank Engine. I think you're a little kid. You were scared. I think you as a one-year-old, you was a pussy, chef. Mama tuck you in? How many bedtime kisses did you get, chef? I come to you with a solution.

He's on your team. He's on your team. Oh, Lama Lama, red pajama. Was that your favorite book, too, Jeff? No. Will. Chef, because if Scottie saw a train, that train's getting fucked up.

Okay, I was about to say. But maybe it's the train. You buy the train knowing that the train's going to be a sacrificial lamb, and then you hang all the ornaments that are breakable. You don't want those stay above halfway up the tree line. Yeah. Then I'll look over when Scott Zill will be at the top of the tree,

tearing down the star. Yeah. Yeah, you might be a shit out of luck. You just look up there, Scotty's up there. What the. Hey guys, it's us. The Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe. I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick.
