Recorded: February 9th 2026 | On this episode of Bussin’ With The Boys, Will Compton and Taylor Lewan kick things off talking about their current vacations — Will in Hawaii and Taylor up in Canada — before diving into debates about the worst TV endings ever, from The Sopranos to Game Of Thrones. Then Bryce Harper hops on the bus ahead of MLB Spring Training. The boys talk Nashville’s food scene (Bryce sides with Taylor — room to improve), before Bryce reflects on being labeled “The Chosen One,” leaving high school early to fast-track the draft, and the pressure that came with it. He also breaks down baseball’s unwritten rules, the infamous pitcher fight, and what really led to leaving the Nationals for the Phillies. Bryce responds to being called “no longer elite,” shares why he’s against an MLB salary cap, and talks about how much longer he plans to play. If you’re into MLB interviews, free agency drama, and unfiltered locker room talk, this one’s for you. Big hugs, tiny kisses.

The Boys are letting you in on their hilarious, high-energy (and often heartfelt) conversations. Topics range from exclusive stories to active player perspectives to out-of-left-field hot takes on things you and your friends only discuss behind closed doors. Sometimes they chat with a guest, sometimes it's just the two of them, but it's always a good time when you're Bussin' With The Boys. And yes, this is the podcast where Mike Vrabel said he'd cut his piece off for a Super Bowl. ----- FOLLOW THE BOYS Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bussinwtb/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/BussinWTB Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BussinWTB/ LISTEN iTunes: http://bit.ly/BWTB_Apple Spotify: http://bit.ly/BWTB_Spotify ----- SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS FanDuel: Sign Up for FanDuel: fanduel.com/bussin Check out FanDuel Promos: https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/promotions Must be 21+ and present in select states (for Kansas, in affiliation with Kansas Star Casino) or 18+ and present in D.C.
