As one of the first duos to take locker room talk to sports podcasting, NFL free agent Taylor Lewan and former teammate, Will Compton created Bussin’ With The Boys, a platform promoting open conversation, vulnerability and a place to share the good, the bad and ugly about life on and off the field.
With the podcast space becoming crowded and everyone starting one, talking to Taylor and Will on how they were one of the originals, how they adjust to changing times, competition and constant evolving.
Last year we had the chance to sit with Taylor during Titans playoff push and we came back to Tennessee this summer to chop it up with The Boys as both our platforms have evolved and we as men, continue to adapt to changing times professionally and personally.
This conversation is full of laughs, tough moments, misconceptions, clearing the air and sharing our own experiences that have shaped some of the choices we made on the field, with our families and our football careers.
In the midst of retiring and still playing the game we love, Taylor still wrestles with what life looks like to walk away from the game we love and how injury last year mentally affected him and the way he pulled himself through dark times to get to the other side while Will knew that it was his time to focus on making plan B plan A when he realized he was thinking more about this next phase of his life and the media opportunities fueling his passion.
Ryan shares his own journey and adjustments of dealing with pressures from others expectations and learning to focus on where his feet are before getting ahead of himself as Fred adds in some of the takeaways having this platform has helped him deal with some of the changes of routine and playing football. Channing also opens up on how he wished he approached his career a little different now as he looks back with some regrets.
Tap in every Tuesday at noon eastern for our premiere episode of the Pivot. Special Training Camp drops on Friday afternoons at 3:30 pm. We are your one-stop platform for all your sports and entertainment content. Stay tuned for updates on upcoming Pivot special episodes!

Amazing quote from Taylor, “People really don’t think about you as much as you think about you”
U might as well all start a new podcast with the 5 of you guys, because the chemistry here w the Bussin boys fun/comedy is absolutely incredible!

Taylor talking about not being able to duplicate that football feeling is 1000% accurate . Nothing like tightening the shoulder pads and making sure your socks the right length. That feeling during the kickoff right before the beginning of the game . That rush is pure, fierce and unable to be replicated !

Exactly bro I was a hooper tho but the feelings the games give are the same the court was my sanctuary it was peace & my solace away frm the world the sound of the ball on the hardwood/screeching shoes during suicides beating on the lockers w ya brothers hyping each other up before a game the pure bliss you feel of every movement & moment in a game the cheers the whistles or even Tht fight of digging deep to get the win as a unit was something beautiful the game gave us all , great fuckin memories fellas 💪

Pivot and Bussin has one of the best Chemistry/Combinations in sports podcasts. 🇺🇲
Ryan: Before you start...beats drops...flawless execution!
For the record....I tune in for Fred, Channing, Ryan, and all behind the scene. The guess are the icing on the cake. The way you interact, interview, and touch people's spirit to get them to engage you. DeMaurice Smith interview was one of the most educating interviews. Because the things he said is applicable to every walk of life. Thank you Alecia for helping with the vision. I never thought I would get "hooked" on any source of media. I am with The Pivot. Thank you all.
Thanks to the Pivot, I started listening to Bussin last year. Now, I listen to both back to back. Great episode fellas 💪🏽
This episode is honestly the best episode of any podcast I've ever seen. Listening to you guys be real and be honest and emotional about things just changed my while mindset in life. Going thru knee surgery as well, not working and feeling less than.this shows me it's possible and real to grow and be better again. From the bottom of my heart thank you
1:15:55 The Titans Podcast episode Taylor mentions is called “The OTP: The Making of a Friendship - Taylor Lewan and Will Compton” (I would link it but YT keeps deleting the linked comment) This pod takes place several weeks after Will gets signed and serves as almost a Bussin with the Boys origin episode. It’s a pretty dope to see the chemistry Will and Taylor have right away and how naturally good they were at podcasting!
Both of these two podcasts are legit great. The way that you all can feed off each other is great.
These are my two favorite sports podcasts. It’s definitely true that there are enough ears for everyone to succeed. I listen to every episode of both without issue, love seeing Will get his credit

"what you, 204?" "What you say?" "204" "Yeah, I heard you the first time" 😂😂
The collab we didnt know we needed 🔥🤌
I forgot my man Fred was there for a sec 😂

Dude Taylor is so spot on about the ears. I have about like for sure 3 to 4 podcasts that I listen too weekly. Like I don’t miss an episode. I don’t feel like bussin competes with anyone else they’re literally looking for guys to come fit the vibe and talk shop for a couple hours. It’s why it’s so good.
All five of y’all boys are dropping some SERIOUS wisdom
YESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!.... 2 of my Top 5 Favorite Podcasts sitting together as a collective chopping it up!! FINALLY!! This was 💯💯💯%🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Before u start…hold up that was clean
Bussin, Pivot, and KelceBros pods are the best player pods around. Draymond is also up there, dude is really good at podcasting and just talking----would be dope if him and TB12 had a pod together lolol
@semi6544

I think Draymond probably has the 3rd best basketball Pod behind JJ Redick and Paul George. Ooh maybe even Pat Bev can squeeze ahead of his. Just one guy talking a lot of the time means he can't have off days. The others having at least a co-host is good.

You have to get Cam and Mase up here. Their podcast is killing it right now.
This was the collab we alll needed! I mess with both pods heavy. Gotta run this back in a year and watch the progression from both sides. The Pivot was Bussin! "Your vision has to have direction." That's a BAR.
Podcasts like this have driven me to listen and watch those I may not know but when I do, I'm more educated on the person, the work, the hustle, etc. Pivot fan for life and now a Bussin fan! Great show! Keep doing what you are doing.
"... ruined her Mormonity..." WTF?! 😂😂😂
Genuine cool dudes chopping it up … phenomenal collab 👏🏾 💎
The podcast space has given people opportunities to really share In depth. Terry is a bright light. Go DMV!!
We have to make sure to remind ourselves to be grateful for these guys and the content they’ve gone out of their way to provide for us 🤘🏽🙏🏽

Before you start, CUTS RIGHT TO THE INTRO 😂😂😂😂😂 PERFECT LOL
This by far is in my Top 5! List! No question! I promise you! This show is the most diverse show on KZread! Please don’t come for me! Just respect and watch! I love and support all these guys! I got a picture to prove with one of them!
The Pivot have the best intro in all of Podcasts! Hold up
Amazing collaboration! You all should do a NFL training camp tour together!!!
This is an amazing episode. I feel like I could have a drink and chat for hours with all of you. Love the banter, love the pivot, and love the boys. Well done fellas.
I love both of these podcasts and a big fan of both!! So happy that they did this episode! 🙌🏽 👏🏼
Great podcast guys. Loved the energy here. Learned some new things and also that channing is a FREAK allegedly 😂😂. Man channing that story was wold bruh I'm still cracking up. 😂😂😂😂. Man got some action at 10 bruh like what😂😂😂😂
“You’re jus rock hard tearin up your denim. There’s nothin better than that? Are you kidding me?” was gold 😂
Two of the best podcast. It doesn't get any better than this!
AYO! 😆😂🤣 "Mor-Mem-Mitty" 🤣😂😆
Bootstraps is a bumpy road. Bravo! Sustained excellence. Great ep.
Best intro so far 😂
I got hooked with BWTB from the pivot. I absolutely love seeing you guys run it back!!! Real love right there.
I didn’t know this is the episode we all needed until I watched it. They need a crossover for the ESPY’s next year or something
That was a awesome pod cast today guys up there with other great ones u all have put out
Such a great episode. Some fun conversation mixed with some deep and insightful conversation. Great chemistry between everyone as well. Excellent work ya’ll. Keep crushin it!
LOVED this pod! two of my favorites together!
Will Compton looks like young Stone Cold Steve Austin 😅😂
I don’t understand y Dey not at a million subscribers yet come on ppl the pivot deserves it let’s get des subscriber up
Im so glad that Will and Taylor were successful with their podcast. It has led to all the great player-led podcasts like New Heights and The Pivot.
I enjoy having something to look forward to. You guys never disappoint. Keep bringing the goods, gents!
The 2 best pods at the same time!!!! 🔥🙌🏼🤯
Incredible conversation. Thank you for this guys.
I think I speak for all when I say an episode w Unc, Brady, JJ Watt, and/or Ray Lewis would be sick!
FINALLY! ❤ Both these pods so much. Its like realising your two separate groups of friends are already boys
Fantastic Show - My favorite 2 Podcast. 5 Great Human Beings. Still thing Taylors - Pivot Show way back was one of the best. Thanks Yall! The humility at the end about athletes and us normal folk was great. It's one of the main reasons I am pulled to watch these two podcasts is because the hosts played at NFL FOOTBALLS HIGHEST LEVEL and that is huge for me.
Incredible episode! 2 of my fav podcasts in one, amazing! You all are crushing! Keep it up
Y'all chemistry is crazy, love it. This a whole new podcast with you 5. Once again The Pivot!!!❤🙏🏾
Taylor got me joked 😂😂😂 “you’re lying “ 😂😂😂😂
Pivot with the Boys could be a great weekly podcast guys.
The music kicked in right on time
I'm a tier one fan from Bussin, this podcast is one of the best ones I've ever watched.
Huge pivot and bussin fan I check in on them both often . I can't wait until Ryan is free enough to let go a little . You can tell he really thinks before he speaks and can sound like a espn suit sometimes vs all the others just letting it flow
Another great show! So great I hit the subscribed button to Bussin' w/the Boys! A lot of great nuggets were dropped in this interview! Thanks for another great interview.
That closing was great.. good people, work hard, don't hate.. and chan at chili's 😂😂
all they are missing is some herb and a bottle cause this basically a conversation at the crib great episode
This was a great interview guys , great job
11/10. Will and RC are incredibly well spoken
Damn 2 of my favourite podcasts together again love it.
Before u start... HOLD UP!! Perfect timing

Great episode. Love the collab and it should be a regular thing.

NOW THIS WAS GREAT 🤣 the chemistry is top notch with this 5
"When did yoy lose your virginity?" Pauses.. "You're already lying" Proceeds to answer after said pause with "10..." FOH 😂😂😂☠️✌️
