Surprise, surprise, surprise.
0:35
He's back for another day.
0:37
Because we had to cut it short yesterday.
0:41
Corey is back in the house.
0:43
Because there was so much to talk about
0:45
yesterday.
0:47
So much to talk about yesterday.
0:48
We barely got to anything.
0:50
And I had that stupid meeting.
0:53
And I was texting you like...
0:57
The meeting was scheduled for thirty
0:58
minutes.
1:00
It ended up going fifty three minutes.
1:02
I say an hour later and not nothing
1:07
relevant occurred after minute eight.
1:11
But you do know how important those people
1:13
are now.
1:14
We do.
1:16
They have hired that will not hired us.
1:19
They've reached out to us.
1:21
So we have a job site to look
1:24
for work.
1:27
They reached out to us to say, hey,
1:30
can you put a splash page about our
1:32
program helping specific workers in the
1:38
field that they kind of work with?
1:40
I don't want to call them out on
1:42
the show because I do like getting a
1:44
paycheck every two weeks.
1:47
As it turns out, yeah.
1:49
And so they wanted us to create a
1:52
splash page
1:54
on our site so that their workers could
1:56
come look for work on our page.
2:00
But during the process told us how great
2:02
their website was.
2:10
Why are you reaching out for us to
2:12
help you out?
2:13
If you're so good at it,
2:15
just take it on.
2:16
I don't need the extra work.
2:20
I need you to make me a cake.
2:21
I mean, my cake is great.
2:24
It's fantastic,
2:25
but I just need you to make me
2:26
one.
2:28
It's not because mine isn't delicious,
2:31
but I just need you to make me
2:33
one for some reason.
2:38
It sounds like they have funds that they
2:39
have to burn through,
2:40
otherwise they won't get them allocated
2:42
next year.
2:45
I don't think their site's as good as
2:47
they think it is, but okay.
2:52
But before we get into the CrossFit stuff,
2:55
one more update on my mom's story.
2:59
So we get a call back from the
3:02
superintendent of the school after we had
3:06
asked why there was no ambulance called
3:08
for her.
3:09
Yes.
3:11
The response was,
3:14
my mom is a cafeteria worker.
3:16
She's a lunch lady.
3:20
Their response was,
3:21
we don't have a policy for cafeteria
3:23
workers.
3:26
What about human beings?
3:27
They're contracted in.
3:30
What about people?
3:33
So you're telling me the UPS guy comes
3:35
in with a hundred pound package,
3:38
trips and falls on your floor.
3:41
You got a policy for that?
3:44
Bro.
3:46
I...
3:49
The woman fell and hit her head on
3:52
the floor.
3:54
Hit her head.
3:58
And you picked her up and asked her
4:00
friend to come pick her up and take
4:01
her to the hospital.
4:04
First of all, aside from the obvious,
4:08
how do you even know she has a
4:09
friend to call?
4:13
like that seems like it'd take a whole
4:14
lot more work to get to than going
4:16
nine, one, one.
4:18
We just have that.
4:18
Like what,
4:20
what if a parent comes in for a
4:21
teacher's conference trips and falls and
4:24
hits their head?
4:24
You're going to pick them up and say,
4:26
go about your way.
4:29
We did Dad's on Duty a couple weeks
4:32
ago at my daughter's school.
4:33
I high-fived seven hundred kids in the
4:36
morning.
4:36
If one of us dads that had been
4:38
there would have fell down and busted her
4:40
head on the concrete outside,
4:41
I can guarantee you the ambulance would
4:44
have been there within ten minutes.
4:46
Tops.
4:48
Because common sense.
4:49
Hey, this dude's hurt.
4:51
We can't do anything.
4:53
Somebody call an ambulance.
4:56
When someone hits their head,
4:57
you can't see a brain bleed.
4:59
You can't see a fracture.
5:03
It's just common.
5:04
Medical professional, an EMS person,
5:06
come in and assess the situation.
5:09
Put them on a backboard,
5:10
whatever it needs to be,
5:12
and transport them to a place where they
5:13
can do imaging.
5:18
Put them in the vehicle specifically
5:19
designed to haul people to the hospital,
5:23
right?
5:27
uh hey jody it's oh no wrong one
5:30
uh that school lacks common sense scary
5:32
thought those people were teaching
5:33
children absolutely very yeah it is so so
5:39
dumb um it's outrageous he's practicing
5:43
c-o-y-a it's common human decency but how
5:47
does that cover his ass they don't have
5:48
a policy
5:50
It is an accident that happened in your
5:52
facility, on your grounds,
5:55
and my mom is like the tenth person
5:58
to fall because of these floors being
6:01
sticky.
6:04
So there is other precedents happening.
6:07
The liability is you can cover your ass
6:10
all you want with this policy BS,
6:12
but you're going to get sued.
6:14
It's like signing a waiver at a gym.
6:17
That's great.
6:18
You signed a waiver.
6:18
Good for you.
6:22
so uh anyway anyway moving on moving on
6:29
that's the issue i got to deal with
6:31
um but it it just how's she feeling
6:35
Uh, she's much yesterday.
6:37
She was more sore than the day it
6:40
happened.
6:40
Right.
6:40
Just like the day after a car accident.
6:44
So the shiner on her eye is really
6:48
bad.
6:49
It's spread.
6:50
So when I talked to her on Tuesday,
6:54
uh,
6:54
it was just contained like right in like
6:56
the eye socket.
6:57
Now it's done though.
6:59
Like, cause it's healing.
7:00
It's spread out like down the cheek and
7:03
around, uh,
7:05
Um, so, um, but she,
7:09
she went to workers comp,
7:11
she's doing all that kind of stuff to
7:13
going out all the paperwork.
7:16
So, uh,
7:19
a waiver is basically two pages of,
7:20
please don't consider suing me.
7:28
So, um,
7:30
what do we want to talk about today?
7:36
feel like you got everything out yesterday
7:39
i mean we've met dude i've always got
7:41
something to say about something well
7:44
first thing i wanted to talk about is
7:47
i watched the end of the pat fowler
7:50
video with coffee pods and wads i was
7:52
only about halfway through when we talked
7:54
yesterday everybody said i had to see the
7:56
last ten minutes or so yeah it gets
7:59
it gets pretty uh it's pretty pretty crazy
8:02
at the end um he said some things
8:05
that really kind of made me scratch my
8:08
head and and yes the theme of yesterday
8:11
must have been delusion
8:14
We had the Will Morad delusional thing
8:17
going on with that the games would be
8:19
a tour stop on the WFP.
8:21
And then we have Vellner saying that
8:25
everybody is taking things out on the
8:27
athletes.
8:29
And they're not giving it a chance.
8:31
I've really not heard anybody bash the
8:33
athletes.
8:34
Yeah.
8:38
Sprague was on with Savan this morning,
8:40
and Savan was saying,
8:42
and I was agreeing with, like,
8:44
I don't give a shit what you do.
8:46
Like,
8:47
if you want to compete in every
8:48
competition that rolls around,
8:50
outstanding, good for you.
8:53
But don't... And forgive me,
8:58
I'm trying to gather this...
9:02
Don't do it and then act like you're
9:04
doing it out of, you know,
9:06
choose one or the other and then act
9:07
like you're doing it for a reason.
9:08
That's not actually like, say why you say,
9:11
just be honest with it.
9:13
Hey, this is why I'm doing this.
9:14
Cool.
9:15
Good for you.
9:16
Moving right along.
9:21
I found that unusual.
9:23
Right.
9:23
And I,
9:23
and I watched them on this morning in
9:24
the opening with him and spray gone the
9:26
whole thing.
9:28
And I'm trying not to just rehash what
9:30
they did,
9:30
because I thought they did make excellent
9:33
points.
9:33
Absolutely.
9:35
What I will say is that him saying
9:39
that the people who chose to just do
9:41
WFP have been...
9:46
unfairly criticized.
9:49
And I just,
9:50
I have not seen it toward the athletes.
9:52
Now, maybe he's getting DMS.
9:54
Maybe he's seeing something that I don't
9:56
see,
9:56
but I haven't really seen the direct
9:59
attack on the athletes that chose just to
10:01
do that one.
10:04
I doubt he's getting DMS because he said
10:05
he barely gets on social media anymore.
10:07
Sure.
10:08
Which is another weird thing to say,
10:10
that if you are barely getting on social
10:12
media,
10:12
then how would you even know or come
10:15
to the conclusion that people are shitting
10:17
on the athletes for choosing one over the
10:19
other?
10:22
I don't know.
10:24
CrossFat says,
10:25
I guess I can only see Pat's friend
10:27
died,
10:28
and Pat can't get past CrossFit with that,
10:31
and so his rational decision-making is
10:34
gone.
10:37
Maybe that's what it is.
10:39
But with Pat, I know why he left.
10:41
He told us why he left.
10:43
Okay, I can respect that.
10:46
You went and you did it, fine.
10:50
But I don't think people have attacked him
10:51
for that.
10:52
They may have attacked him for foolish
10:54
things he said with the PFAA or things
10:59
that didn't make sense or contradictory
11:01
comments, which I think is...
11:04
So let's take one step back.
11:07
So you have the athlete piece, right?
11:08
Now you have the whole people attacking
11:12
unfairly the WFP.
11:15
And I thought Peter had made a pretty
11:16
good point to say that they came out
11:24
and said, we're going to do it better.
11:27
When you come out and say you're going
11:29
to do it better,
11:30
you yourself are setting the bar way up
11:33
here.
11:35
Right?
11:36
Because you're coming out with an edge
11:37
saying, because of this,
11:39
we are going to do it better.
11:42
And then you keep messing up.
11:45
And that's one aspect of it.
11:48
But the true problem with the WFP is
11:51
they keep lying and then contradicting
11:54
themselves.
11:57
And they're trying to make it seem like
11:59
the media are doing this.
12:03
And that the media,
12:04
they don't criticize CrossFit,
12:07
but they're criticizing them.
12:09
Oh, my gosh.
12:10
If you have watched this show, Savon,
12:13
Pillar,
12:15
CrossFit has been hitting the nose way
12:18
more times than WFP in the last five
12:20
years.
12:26
Weekly.
12:28
I would say weekly.
12:30
Sometimes daily.
12:32
I have never seen a decision HQ has
12:34
made.
12:35
The design of this season has been
12:37
horrific for CrossFit.
12:40
Now they had a good CrossFit games.
12:43
It was very enjoyable.
12:45
And it's,
12:46
I think bounced back a lot of the
12:48
negative publicity because it came with a
12:51
new ad campaign.
12:53
It came back with forging elite fitness.
12:55
It came back with a lot of things
12:57
around that games time to kind of get
12:59
you to rally around that.
13:02
But the semifinal season was a complete
13:04
mess.
13:08
Yeah.
13:08
And that.
13:10
Everybody called it out from the initial
13:13
get-go from when it was announced.
13:14
Oh,
13:14
we're going to do the online qualifier in
13:16
the middle of the live ones.
13:18
You're going to do what?
13:20
And you won't know the results for two
13:21
weeks.
13:21
So when you're doing these other
13:23
semifinals,
13:24
we don't really know who's qualifying
13:26
until those final results happen.
13:28
Might make a difference.
13:29
Might not.
13:31
Who knows?
13:32
Nobody does.
13:33
And again, like you said, from day one,
13:37
as soon as that was announced,
13:38
people were like, this is insane.
13:42
This is insane.
13:43
This is crazy.
13:44
Why are y'all doing this?
13:45
This shouldn't be like this.
13:46
Over and over and over and over again.
14:00
Bro.
14:00
Jenny said it the best.
14:01
It's Delulu.
14:03
And it seems to be a contagious disease.
14:07
Lately.
14:11
Well, it's the echo chamber effect, right?
14:13
Or like, who was it?
14:17
Somebody said it in the comments a minute
14:18
ago.
14:22
The whole,
14:22
why aren't you outraged with me type deal.
14:25
Well, because I don't care.
14:27
Or because my outrage doesn't look like
14:29
yours.
14:30
And that's okay.
14:31
Like, if that's what you want to do,
14:32
dude, nobody's knocking you for it.
14:35
Do what you want to do.
14:37
That's perfectly fine.
14:39
That right there.
14:41
Nobody wins with you.
14:42
Why aren't you outraged with them?
14:45
That's a hard fact.
14:47
If something bothers Scott so much...
14:52
That he needs to speak on it and
14:54
say something about it.
14:55
He's not going to drag me with it
14:57
to say the exact same thing.
14:59
Forty five times in a row.
15:01
It's just not how Scott operates.
15:02
It's not how most people operate.
15:04
I would venture to think most rational
15:06
people.
15:06
Right.
15:07
You're not going to just I don't
15:09
understand why you're not so mad.
15:10
Well,
15:11
because that doesn't affect me in any kind
15:12
of way.
15:13
Like, I don't.
15:14
Why would I get mad at something like
15:16
that?
15:16
Why would I get mad at stuff that
15:17
is beyond my level of control?
15:22
When you come out and say,
15:23
we're not competing with CrossFit,
15:26
and then two weeks later,
15:27
you're trying to steal CrossFit affiliates
15:30
to become affiliates of your program.
15:37
That's where you lose people.
15:39
Within like two weeks.
15:41
Right.
15:45
You can't say that over here and then
15:47
do this.
15:49
Yeah, we're not going to,
15:50
it's like a restaurant,
15:55
a fast food restaurant opening across the
15:56
street from Subway saying that we're not
15:59
really in competition with them.
16:00
There's plenty of people to go around.
16:02
We are going to sell the exact same
16:03
sandwiches and carry the exact same meats
16:06
and basically have more or less the same
16:09
type things.
16:09
We're going to tweak it just a tiny
16:11
bit.
16:12
We're not in contact.
16:13
We're not in contact, you know.
16:17
It's not competition.
16:18
We're not competing with CrossFit,
16:19
but sometime in the future,
16:21
I could see them as a tour stop
16:23
of ours.
16:24
That's not still...
16:27
If that's not competing,
16:28
that's saying we're going to crush them to
16:30
the point that their only survival is to
16:33
become a tour stop.
16:34
They're going to beg to come and be
16:36
a part of our thing.
16:41
I...
16:47
do i i'm gonna go with you i'm
16:49
gonna go with jenny's choice of word there
16:52
it's absolutely that it's a bold strategy
16:57
cotton it is a bold strategy and then
17:04
going on podcast and calling things petty
17:06
arguments it was created
17:15
out of a petty argument.
17:18
WFP was created out of a petty argument.
17:21
You didn't like the way CrossFit did
17:23
things.
17:24
You didn't like the way they handled
17:26
Lazar's death.
17:28
And so you decided that you were going
17:31
to create a competitor to take advantage
17:34
of that and build a place for other
17:37
people to come where they were taken care
17:39
of much better.
17:42
For athletes by athletes.
17:45
Now, we may have some broken bikes.
17:47
We may have a broken GHD.
17:50
We may, you know, who knows?
17:53
You may have to work out in the
17:53
dark.
17:55
Or not.
17:57
But we're going to take care of you
17:57
better.
18:01
And so I've said this once before.
18:06
When your foundation is building it out of
18:09
hate,
18:11
that's not a foundation to stand on for
18:13
long term.
18:14
No.
18:15
That's not a business plan.
18:19
The games grew organically out of from the
18:23
very first time when Greg said,
18:27
let's have a little festival.
18:28
Let's see who can do these better.
18:31
We'll do a couple of workouts in a
18:32
day,
18:32
which at the time was absolutely insane.
18:34
And then year over year,
18:36
it just got bigger.
18:38
Now let's have a qualifying progress to
18:41
get a step,
18:42
whatever you want to call it,
18:44
qualifying progression to get here.
18:45
Oh,
18:46
we need to change that up a little
18:46
bit because we're not getting the right
18:48
people.
18:48
Oh, well,
18:49
now it's so big we need to add
18:50
stuff to it.
18:51
It's going on over twenty years.
18:55
And then, oh,
18:56
I don't like the way they did one
18:57
thing, so two things, three things.
19:02
So instead of maybe
19:05
being the change that I want to see
19:07
in it, advocating for it,
19:09
seeing what will happen for it,
19:10
which is going to create an entirely new
19:12
thing and act like we're not recreating
19:15
what's already there.
19:18
And in the meantime,
19:19
we're going to claim that we're doing it
19:21
bigger and better,
19:24
even though that's not necessarily,
19:27
it's not.
19:27
And then you find out halfway through, oh,
19:29
this is not nearly as easy as I
19:31
thought it was going to be.
19:34
I do think Will admitting that when he
19:37
was talking to Pedro the other day was
19:38
pretty big of him going, oh, yeah, no,
19:41
it turns out this is way harder than
19:42
I thought it was going to be.
19:43
Well, yeah,
19:44
of course it is because you had no
19:45
idea what you were doing to begin with,
19:47
which is fine.
19:49
Jump right in.
19:50
Both feet, you got money behind you.
19:52
And it's not yours.
19:54
Who gives a shit?
19:54
Go for it.
19:56
But don't come out and say it's going
19:57
to be this great, phenomenal,
19:59
fantastic thing when you have absolutely
20:02
no idea what you're building or trying to
20:04
build.
20:05
Vellner's try is deflecting away from the
20:08
attempted defect and dividing fans and
20:11
trying to drive other athletes away from
20:13
the game season.
20:16
I think that is what they have been
20:17
trying to do.
20:19
I think that if you listen to Pat
20:23
in that interview,
20:25
other than the last ten minutes,
20:26
he was softening his stance and saying,
20:28
maybe I'll do the CrossFit game season,
20:30
but it depends on who owns it next
20:32
season.
20:32
Right.
20:34
Which that's fair.
20:36
A lot of people are saying that.
20:38
Yeah.
20:39
But also, I think,
20:43
and maybe this is my athlete brain kicking
20:45
in a little bit,
20:45
but I think part of it has to
20:46
do with he's thirty five.
20:50
His best years, more than likely,
20:52
are behind him at this point.
20:54
WFP, he can go over there.
20:57
He's already a part of it.
20:58
He knows he's going to make money,
21:00
whatever.
21:00
He can still keep doing the thing he
21:02
wants to do without having to come in
21:05
or the master's category where you know
21:06
you're not going to get the recognition,
21:08
much less the money, sponsorships,
21:10
whatever the case may be.
21:12
And it's hard to let go of.
21:13
So it's real easy to be petty at
21:15
that point.
21:17
Yeah.
21:18
I want to speak to Sean's thing here.
21:21
How to handle an athlete's death wasn't a
21:22
petty argument,
21:23
but using that as a knee-jerk excuse to
21:25
start the WFP is shallow.
21:27
Why I call it a petty argument is
21:32
having an athlete die had to be one
21:34
of the hardest things for anyone in the
21:37
concert space to ever have to handle.
21:40
Nobody anticipated this day coming.
21:43
Nobody thought this day was becoming,
21:45
and they were being judged so severely for
21:48
how they reacted in the hours after that
21:51
occurred.
21:53
My point about petty is everybody that is
21:56
criticized CrossFit in the way they
21:57
handled it have never told me how it
22:00
should be,
22:01
should have been handled differently.
22:03
Ben Bergeron, when asked,
22:05
how do you handle it differently then?
22:07
Well, I don't know.
22:08
And that was six months after the fact.
22:10
You've had six months to think about it
22:12
and you still can't come up with a
22:13
way to do it better.
22:15
I'll give you one better because I
22:16
finished that statement for you.
22:17
Ben not only said, I don't know.
22:19
He said, I don't know,
22:20
but I would have done it better.
22:22
right no you don't like everybody they're
22:26
just mad but nobody nobody can take and
22:30
put themselves in the shoes of those
22:31
people who had to handle that situation
22:34
and figured out how to do it better
22:37
and told me what was the solution yes
22:44
they don't have one scott
22:48
It's screaming at the sky.
22:49
It's being mad because the sun came up
22:51
again and poor Lazarus is still dead.
22:58
God bless him.
22:59
Nobody wanted to see that.
23:00
Nobody wanted that to happen.
23:02
It's unprecedented.
23:03
It has not happened in our sport at
23:06
all, ever.
23:08
It's the first one.
23:09
I, we have a,
23:10
we have a running joke at our gym
23:13
and ever so might,
23:13
when you have some ridiculous workout and
23:15
people are laying on the ground,
23:16
like breathing hard and sweating and,
23:19
you know,
23:20
basically a mess and you just lay on
23:21
and be like, Hey, just so you know,
23:24
to date, nobody has died in here.
23:27
We're going to keep that streak going
23:28
today.
23:29
Right.
23:30
Cause we wouldn't know what to do if
23:31
somebody did other than to call the
23:33
ambulance.
23:35
Right.
23:38
To expect people to just know what to
23:40
do when something,
23:42
especially he didn't collapse on the
23:44
floor.
23:45
The thing I hate most about society today
23:49
is it's really easy to sit on the
23:51
sidelines and say you did it wrong,
23:54
but nobody offers the solution.
23:57
How would you have done it differently
23:58
then?
24:00
It's really easy to sit over there and
24:03
say, you didn't handle that right.
24:05
But nobody, nobody has offered up.
24:08
This is what should have happened.
24:11
Yeah.
24:17
Ridiculous.
24:18
Yes, Vicki.
24:24
I'm kind of with you, Vindicate.
24:26
I don't know why that bugs me.
24:28
It bugs me.
24:30
It was crooked.
24:31
I grew up in the day of like,
24:34
you round it down.
24:36
I can't.
24:37
Well, I can, but it's a whole thing.
24:43
If I do that with the sunglasses that
24:45
I have, I can't.
24:46
It sits up like on this part of
24:47
my head.
24:49
Anyway.
24:56
In the midst of all that,
24:56
none of them tried to unite the community
24:58
in any way or be a part of
24:59
the solution.
25:00
It was a great time to step up
25:02
and no one did.
25:05
I think there were people that understood
25:07
what was going on and tried to say
25:09
they understood.
25:11
Being there in that arena that weekend,
25:13
it sucked.
25:14
Yeah, I remember.
25:17
It was so hard.
25:19
And I wasn't even in charge of doing
25:21
anything.
25:22
And I was...
25:24
paralyzed for moments because it sucked so
25:27
bad so how could I point a finger
25:32
at Dave or Boz or Don Fall and
25:35
tell them they did it wrong when I'm
25:37
sitting there in the arena going what the
25:39
hell just happened because I couldn't have
25:45
I wasn't thinking clearly that day and I
25:50
knew I knew Lazar on a
25:53
surface level right like he knew my name
25:56
i knew his name we talked a couple
25:58
times he's been on the show a bunch
26:02
it hit me hard and i am sure
26:07
the same happened to them i am sure
26:10
that dave and don and all those people
26:13
were devastated and then they were given
26:15
instructions by a board on how to handle
26:18
a situation
26:23
And it was an impossible task to be
26:27
the face of that.
26:32
They did the best they could with the
26:33
information that was given to them and the
26:36
situation that it was.
26:37
Was it fantastic?
26:40
Nope.
26:41
And you know this had a big part
26:43
in what went down.
26:45
Absolutely, it did.
26:47
Lawyers played a big part in what went
26:49
down.
26:50
Absolutely, it did.
26:54
just like we talked with my mom at
26:55
the top of the show liability resides with
26:58
the people holding the contest the
27:00
competition and i don't know well enough
27:11
about that um a couple other things i
27:16
wanted to ask you about one you know
27:21
close with tristan i'm close with hattie i
27:23
know you're close with tristan yesterday
27:25
hattie was on glit and things and she
27:28
made the announcement that she has left
27:32
tristan and moved on to a different coach
27:34
how shocked were you because i i almost
27:38
wrecked the jeep i was on my way
27:39
i was on my way home i really
27:43
did finishing the documentary from behind
27:45
the scenes at the games with the two
27:47
of them yeah
27:50
and I've been scrambling ever since I
27:53
watched that last night to, and I,
27:56
and I got permission from the Glintons to,
27:58
uh,
27:59
be able to use that as the end
28:02
of the documentary because it,
28:08
it shifts the whole ending of the doc
28:10
and,
28:12
And I know bigger than that.
28:14
Like I just, and I understand, you know,
28:16
sometimes you just need a different
28:18
perspective.
28:20
You're in even an average Joe,
28:22
one coach says something to you and it
28:24
doesn't click.
28:25
Another coach comes over and says
28:26
something to you and all of a sudden,
28:28
bam.
28:28
Oh, I get it now.
28:32
I did not have that on my twenty
28:34
twenty five bingo card at all.
28:36
Was not even an option in my head.
28:38
Right.
28:39
Uh,
28:40
having said that the fact that it's
28:43
amicable and that Tristan is like,
28:45
absolutely, you know,
28:46
we had a fantastic run,
28:48
which are none but the best, you know,
28:50
and how do you say in, uh,
28:52
same thing, you know, Hey,
28:55
it is what it is.
28:56
I'm moving on, you know,
28:57
still love Tristan to death, you know,
28:59
gluten form, all that stuff.
29:01
Like didn't see it coming,
29:04
but the fact that there it's,
29:08
I won't say a good thing,
29:09
but it ended well,
29:10
I guess you could say.
29:13
That made me happy.
29:17
Well, now she's going to Brute,
29:18
and it's been brought up here.
29:20
That and the Brute moving shook me,
29:23
and the Brute changes are wild.
29:24
I don't even know all the changes,
29:25
because I'm not done with Siobhan from
29:27
this morning,
29:28
and I know James is just kind of
29:29
getting into it when I had to quit
29:32
watching.
29:34
They're leaving Jacksonville.
29:36
Even Jacksonville.
29:37
That's as far as I got to because
29:39
I was in and out.
29:40
And I heard James say that Dallin is
29:43
going to move someplace to have better
29:49
balance in life.
29:50
I can only assume he's moving back to
29:52
the Pacific Northwest.
29:54
Right.
29:57
Or he's moving in next door to Jason.
30:00
I don't know.
30:02
They bought the house next door to
30:03
Jason's.
30:03
They're going to work out in Jason's barn
30:06
together.
30:09
Or build a barn that goes over the
30:13
two property lines.
30:15
I like it.
30:15
I like it.
30:16
It's a solid plan, let's be honest.
30:20
Yeah, Hattie is going to Brute.
30:24
Sounds like Matt is moving somewhere no
30:26
one else would go.
30:27
Like Vermont?
30:28
Is that what you're getting at, Travis?
30:33
Oh, I cracked myself.
30:35
Crazy.
30:37
Crazy.
30:38
So I just found that, you know,
30:44
like it was just like three years ago,
30:46
like the camps were the biggest thing and
30:47
everybody was moving to the camp and to
30:50
work out every day.
30:51
And now most of the camps seem to
30:53
be remote.
30:56
I would...
31:02
I can see both sides as far as
31:05
the camps.
31:05
Like if you're in it every single day
31:09
and you are two killers, right?
31:11
If you are Jason and Dallin and you
31:14
are next to each other every single day,
31:17
it would be very,
31:18
very hard to have a normal training
31:21
session that does not turn into a
31:22
competition.
31:24
And doing that every single day is not
31:28
going to be healthy whatsoever for your
31:31
longevity.
31:32
Uh, they just made that word up, uh,
31:36
for your fitness in general,
31:37
because you cannot compete every single
31:39
day and expect to be able to recover
31:43
and get ready and be good for the
31:44
next day.
31:46
Uh, remember comp train academy.
31:50
Briefly.
31:50
Yeah, I do.
31:52
That worked for half a season?
31:56
Yes.
31:57
I want to say four months.
32:00
I want to say four months,
32:02
beginning to end.
32:03
I remember whenever they announced it,
32:05
thinking, yeah, I mean, okay.
32:09
Kind of like IMG Academy or whatnot.
32:11
People go there, and they live there,
32:13
and that's what they do.
32:14
Yeah.
32:17
P.O.
32:17
is moving to Boston.
32:20
I'm betting you that that doesn't even
32:21
matter because they just brought on
32:24
Justin.
32:25
Justin is not leaving Vegas.
32:28
It's all remote anyway.
32:32
Yeah.
32:32
So really the only one that the only
32:35
two places that have a headquarters that
32:37
matter is TTT and proven mayhem.
32:44
I forgot about them.
32:45
They're kind of big.
32:46
I mean,
32:47
mayhem is kind of a big deal at
32:48
that point.
32:49
And mayhem is not just mayhem, right?
32:50
It's Cookville in general.
32:53
Because it's mayhem and it's the barn.
32:58
Yeah,
32:58
the barn doesn't get used as much as
32:59
it used to.
33:00
I think Rich was disappointed in that.
33:02
If you've watched some of their latest
33:04
videos,
33:04
he's been trying to encourage the athletes
33:07
to show up at the barn and use
33:08
it because it's there.
33:09
Because it's in his back court.
33:11
I would, too.
33:15
guys wait wait see i'm across the old
33:16
man i don't want anybody but i don't
33:18
want to see people he also get out
33:20
of here right um i i also get
33:24
the feeling from matt oh not from matt
33:26
excuse me from rich that he enjoys having
33:29
people around like he wants somebody to
33:31
come work out with him so he can
33:33
write some nonsense on the board and they
33:34
can destroy themselves for thirty minutes
33:36
to an hour
33:37
Like, I feel like that,
33:39
that's a whole thing.
33:40
I would, I would, I train myself.
33:43
Ninety percent of the time.
33:45
And when I do get to get people
33:46
to come do stuff with me,
33:48
it's just more fun, dude.
33:50
It really, really is.
33:52
When I said TTT CrossFit,
33:53
what I was meaning is their headquarters
33:55
still matter.
33:56
They have a lot of camps there.
33:58
They bring in athletes for longer periods
34:01
of time to do X things, right?
34:06
I'm sure they'll all be in there for
34:08
quarterfinals.
34:10
They'll all be there for online
34:11
semifinals.
34:12
I'm subscribed to their YouTube channel.
34:14
They still put out videos daily.
34:17
And like CTP is on top of his
34:19
shit.
34:19
And even mayhem,
34:20
a lot of the athletes are remote.
34:24
But they also spend a lot of time
34:25
in Cookville, like the main one.
34:28
Yeah.
34:28
And they're invited there to do all the
34:30
major competitions and all the,
34:32
that's kind of the same thing.
34:34
The same thing with most of their athletes
34:36
are Australian.
34:36
They're not in Nashville year round.
34:39
No, but the American ones,
34:42
like they're at the headquarters.
34:43
I feel like a lot.
34:49
uh their youtube's great it's a more
34:51
genuine hwpo model now yeah i agree i've
34:59
always liked ttt's content um ctp is
35:04
awesome and he's just a great dude he's
35:08
one of the people i hang out with
35:09
whenever i'm at events um
35:13
still will never forget when he went on
35:14
beyond uh around the whiteboard with pedro
35:17
and he opened a freaking uh pokemon cord
35:22
pack as part of one of his minute
35:27
long sessions or uh answers or whatnot
35:29
like the dude is he's good people he's
35:33
just funny he doesn't take anything too
35:34
seriously
35:37
He's just a good dude, man.
35:38
The TTT stuff is fun to watch because
35:40
they don't take it too seriously either.
35:43
They sound like me and my friends when
35:45
we sit around and talk about programming
35:46
and cops and stuff like that.
35:50
It's enjoyable to watch.
35:51
It really, really is.
35:53
In the Lydia Fish video,
35:54
they talked about what Fortnite and Call
35:58
of Duty and Taco Bell as much as
36:01
they talked about her doing the workouts.
36:05
That's what I love about it.
36:09
Speaking of the camps,
36:11
a question I've actually had on my notes
36:13
to ask you for a while now is
36:18
how many opportunities should an athlete
36:22
get?
36:25
So, you know, in sports,
36:28
they always say like the amount of
36:33
mistakes you can make correlates with the
36:36
talent that you have.
36:38
Correct.
36:39
Right.
36:39
If you suck and you make a mistake,
36:42
you're probably getting cut.
36:46
If you're really great athletically and
36:50
you make a mistake,
36:51
you probably get like five or six of
36:53
those before the threat of a cut or
36:55
a trade comes up.
36:58
Yeah.
36:59
So we have people like Sarah Sigmund's
37:01
daughter who have been with every camp
37:03
under the sun.
37:05
And now we have Daniel Brandon,
37:07
who has been underdog, brute,
37:11
a couple coaches at brute.
37:13
Now with Adam Neifert,
37:16
how many opportunities does she get?
37:18
Is there,
37:19
if she doesn't succeed with brute,
37:23
is there any place she can go after
37:25
this?
37:27
Where else is there for her to go?
37:29
Let me ask you this.
37:32
Sorry about that.
37:33
Who else is willing to try to take
37:37
it on when everything she does is public?
37:41
When everything she does, not everything.
37:43
I mean, I say everything.
37:44
That's kind of mean.
37:47
But when most of the stuff she does,
37:50
and it turns out to be public,
37:51
it's not great.
37:53
from a publicity standpoint where she
37:55
comes off as being very very hard to
37:57
work with very diva-ish very you know i
38:00
mean she's putting do not use signs on
38:02
machines at the at the gym because they're
38:05
because they're daniels yeah antonio brown
38:14
josh gordon their talent levels were so
38:18
high they got so many opportunities in the
38:20
nfl
38:22
There is no debating that Danielle
38:24
Brandon's talent level is at a level that
38:29
is very rarely seen.
38:31
If she doesn't can the back squat,
38:35
she's on the podium this year.
38:36
Period.
38:39
End of story.
38:41
If she does not shit can the back
38:43
squat at the games,
38:44
she is on the podium.
38:46
High on the podium.
38:49
So it ain't like she's not,
38:51
but how much other stuff are you willing
38:54
to put up with?
38:56
And what's the upside for the coaches?
38:59
And that's the other thing.
39:00
How many coaches have the ego that think
39:04
I'm the one that can make it click?
39:06
Right.
39:08
So I think it's twofold.
39:09
It's she has the talent level to be
39:12
a podium athlete at the CrossFit Games.
39:17
And how many coaches are left that have
39:19
the ego to say,
39:21
I know that all these other coaches
39:23
failed,
39:24
but I got something they don't and I
39:26
can make it click.
39:28
I'm the one that's going to bring her
39:30
back to center and get her up on
39:33
the podium.
39:34
If not, when?
39:36
She's fit, dude.
39:39
Insanely so.
39:42
It's just an interesting thought, like,
39:48
Adam is a insanely nice guy.
39:51
Ridiculously nice guy, right?
39:54
You know, doing good and well,
39:55
whenever they asked him, you know, Hey,
39:57
y'all could just kind of shepherd her for
40:00
the games or whatnot.
40:01
And he was like, yeah, sure.
40:05
Right.
40:05
It wasn't like, Oh yeah.
40:06
Like I, there was,
40:09
there's no way that was a thing.
40:11
That's probably one of those.
40:12
You get off the phone and you're like,
40:17
okay, here we go.
40:18
Because you got to start thinking about
40:20
how we're going to make this actually
40:22
happen and how we're actually going to
40:24
make it work.
40:26
Just for mirrors,
40:26
no one wants that poison in their gym.
40:29
That's what people said about Antonio
40:30
Brown, Dennis Rodman, Terrell Owens.
40:36
To be fair,
40:37
all the time for that to wear out.
40:41
To be fair,
40:43
as far as Dennis Rodman is concerned,
40:46
um you look at all the documentaries and
40:48
whatnot that he's in especially like the
40:49
uh the one about the bulls is that
40:52
when they just left him alone and let
40:55
him do his thing he was fine he
40:57
might have showed up with you know six
40:59
different color hair or some extra
41:01
piercings that he didn't have the day
41:03
before or whatnot and probably would have
41:04
been hung over but he's going to get
41:05
you fifteen twenty rebounds a night yeah
41:08
but how many games does he miss during
41:09
while you're letting him be himself
41:12
Not enough to not win three championships
41:15
in a row.
41:16
So there's that.
41:19
CrossFit says,
41:19
I've definitely looked at her and said,
41:21
I can fix her.
41:24
I know you're joking.
41:25
I know that this is a joke.
41:27
But I am telling you,
41:28
there are coaches that are saying that.
41:31
Oh, absolutely.
41:33
And on the flip side,
41:35
I know one personally who said,
41:37
I would not touch that with a ten-foot
41:39
pole.
41:42
Yeah.
41:43
He said, there's no possible way.
41:46
Not happening.
41:50
So there's that.
41:52
I would say it's very,
41:54
I like the analogy you used.
41:57
Yeah.
41:58
When he went missing with Carmen Electra
42:00
and MJ had to go get him.
42:01
Yeah.
42:03
I very much like the analogy you used
42:06
of the, what's the upside?
42:12
Right?
42:13
And how many high-end coaches are left
42:19
that will say, right?
42:22
Underdogs is done as a thing.
42:25
Justin is now HWPO.
42:27
So if Justin's now HWPO,
42:29
she's not going over there.
42:31
That ain't going to happen.
42:34
Right?
42:34
Adam is over there and kind of
42:37
shepherding, doing whatever.
42:38
But unless somebody else that we don't
42:41
know about yet,
42:43
One of these people who's like, oh,
42:44
I can fix her.
42:46
I can definitely fix her.
42:47
Let me ask you this, too.
42:50
How many others are there?
42:52
Sarah's been everywhere, right?
42:54
But everybody loves Sarah.
42:56
Sarah's been everywhere because she's
42:58
looking at other people going,
43:00
I can probably go over there and get
43:01
better.
43:02
You've never heard a story where Sarah
43:04
Sigma's daughter was run out of camp or
43:08
run off of somebody's training program.
43:12
If Cutler couldn't handle her,
43:13
no one else can.
43:15
I truly believe that,
43:16
but let me throw this out to you.
43:18
Why does it have to be a big
43:19
camp?
43:22
If you are one of these smaller people
43:24
like Golden Line or Tristan or one of
43:29
these coaches on the up and coming that
43:30
are trying to make a name for themselves,
43:33
if you can be the one to fix
43:35
Danielle,
43:35
what does that do for your trajectory as
43:38
a coach for the rest of your career?
43:40
You'd have to convince her of that first.
43:47
True.
43:48
I'm just saying that it's worth the gamble
43:51
if you're a smaller coach.
43:54
She finished, what, fifth this year?
43:57
Fourth.
43:58
Fourth.
43:59
It was fifth or fourth,
43:59
something like that.
44:02
Last year,
44:02
we'll throw that out the window, right?
44:04
But she's been hovering in that top ten
44:06
zone, right?
44:08
Top ten,
44:09
top five zone the past couple of years.
44:12
As an athlete...
44:17
Like that's going to do some stuff for
44:18
your head and thinking, well,
44:21
I don't know who the hell you are.
44:22
Why?
44:24
Like,
44:24
that's a tough sell is what I'm getting
44:26
at for these, you know, up and coming.
44:30
It's all about the option she has.
44:32
And if she doesn't have any,
44:34
because something doesn't go right with
44:35
knife hurt,
44:37
then she may have to go down to
44:39
like a coach like that.
44:42
Or she programs for herself.
44:46
But then who do you blame?
44:52
I just keep thinking that.
44:53
As soon as you say who you blame,
44:55
I picture in that ice bucket at the
44:57
games, bitching at Matt, at Torres,
45:04
about I should have done or about
45:05
whatever.
45:06
You can't do that.
45:09
At some point, I can't.
45:13
If I, okay, at Monster Games,
45:16
I was on track to win an event.
45:20
I missed my second-to-last bar muscle-up
45:23
of the entire thing.
45:25
I can't go back and bitch at Brandon
45:29
for not programming enough.
45:32
I'm performing, not him, right?
45:36
He's just giving me tools,
45:37
sending me on my way.
45:39
It's a personal responsibility at that
45:41
point.
45:54
Did anyone know she works out in her
45:57
garage and does her own programming?
46:00
I want her an REO like tight.
46:08
Yeah.
46:10
Okay.
46:12
Well, that's enough about that.
46:16
The last thing I just wanted to talk
46:17
about is James talked about today on
46:24
Savan,
46:25
his requirements for posting on social
46:28
media that he has right now with sponsors
46:31
is he has to get thirty five posts
46:33
out in a month.
46:36
That is crazy.
46:40
That's a lot.
46:41
It's a lot.
46:45
I
46:46
How do you stay genuine to who you
46:49
are?
46:50
And as he was talking,
46:51
I just kept thinking like, James,
46:56
the reason people stay with you are
46:58
because you're authentic, right?
47:01
That's why they're with you.
47:03
And the more requirements they make of him
47:05
on these posts,
47:07
the less authentic he can even be.
47:09
Yeah.
47:11
After a while,
47:11
you're going to start recycling stuff.
47:16
And what else are you going to do?
47:19
That's more than one a day.
47:23
I don't know.
47:25
It's crazy.
47:30
Not to mention all the other stuff he's
47:32
got going on.
47:33
Like I heard Vindicate is a bastard.
47:36
If Colton doesn't post every sixty nine
47:38
minutes, he gets a lashing.
47:41
Oh, wait.
47:41
Oh, there it is.
47:42
Mm hmm.
47:44
Yeah.
47:45
Travis is rough.
47:45
That's why he won't sponsor me.
47:46
Cause I know I won't post every six
47:47
to nine minutes.
47:48
I'm like, nah, dude,
47:49
I got other stuff to do.
47:50
Um, back to James,
47:55
he's got a lot of shit going on.
47:59
He is training, right?
48:02
Sponsoring stuff.
48:03
He's got this competition he's putting
48:04
together.
48:05
He's programming for,
48:06
he's doing all the things for he's got
48:08
the people that he trains as well.
48:12
Like he was going through it this morning
48:13
and talking about all of it.
48:14
I was like,
48:15
I didn't realize how much stuff he
48:17
actually has his fingers in at twenty
48:20
three years old.
48:23
And it's a lot.
48:23
A whole lot.
48:26
When I when I interviewed him when he
48:27
was, I think, seventeen,
48:30
he had started his own businesses then
48:32
like he was doing a programming that teens
48:36
could buy when he was seventeen years old.
48:42
I think he just has that spirit in
48:44
him that he wants to be busy.
48:47
His mind moves at a thousand miles an
48:49
hour.
48:49
I mean, if you've been around him,
48:52
he is like the Energizer bunny and he
48:54
just needs to be moving and occupied at
48:57
all times.
48:59
And I think that's probably when he's
49:01
best.
49:02
Oh, absolutely.
49:04
Anybody I've ever met that's myself
49:07
included that needs to be engaged like
49:09
during the day.
49:12
Vindicate is not going to spark you
49:13
because you wear flat-billed hats.
49:17
Send me a shirt.
49:18
I love Travis.
49:25
You know, when I was a kid,
49:25
we used to put a baseball in the
49:27
brim and take a rubber band and wrap
49:29
around the bill to get it to be
49:34
really curved.
49:36
If you see one of the other ones
49:38
that's in my Jeep, it looks like that.
49:41
One of my newer hats from the gym.
49:46
Anyway.
49:48
Anyway.
49:49
Yeah.
49:50
I operate better when I'm doing four
49:52
things at once.
49:55
Because it keeps my mind occupied.
49:56
Like I'm during the course of a day,
49:59
I am working on a quote.
50:00
I'm talking on the phone to somebody at
50:02
the same time.
50:02
I got music playing on the other end,
50:04
like.
50:06
My wife hates it because I need noise
50:10
and I need stuff going on to be
50:13
able to keep them unoccupied.
50:15
If I just sit here and just left
50:16
them on devices, it's not good.
50:19
Yeah, that much stuff going on,
50:21
I usually cut off a finger.
50:27
I said my wife hates it.
50:28
When we had to work together at home
50:30
when the world shut down,
50:32
We were on opposite ends of the living
50:34
room and that she was about ready to
50:36
murder me after the first day because I
50:39
got music playing.
50:40
I got to answer the phone.
50:41
I talked to people.
50:41
I'm click clacking on the keyboard and
50:43
whatnot.
50:43
And she likes it quiet.
50:47
Like I'll go pop in the house for
50:48
lunch some days and open the front door
50:52
and can't hear nothing.
50:54
And she's working.
50:55
And I'm like,
50:56
how do you sit here in silence all
50:58
day long?
50:58
I fall asleep.
51:01
There's no possible way.
51:02
I need noise.
51:02
I need something.
51:05
And I feel like that's how James' brain
51:06
probably works as well.
51:07
He needs fourteen projects to keep him
51:09
occupied.
51:14
Yeah.
51:16
Well, now he's gone almost an hour.
51:21
And yeah, Joseph,
51:22
that is the old school method because I
51:24
am old.
51:26
It's cool.
51:30
To be fair, nine times out of ten,
51:32
my head is usually like this anyway.
51:33
Well,
51:35
that's because Will Morad makes it look so
51:37
good.
51:40
It also had to be like this, though.
51:41
It looked like I just smoked a bowl
51:44
and just sitting here talking to you.
51:47
I got it forward because it's got my
51:49
people going.
51:51
They're not sponsoring the show,
51:52
but it doesn't matter.
51:55
We advertise.
51:56
Yeah.
51:57
Yeah.
51:59
it's tough to get sponsors for this
52:01
because you hear like what james is going
52:03
through and i'm very like uh nothing i
52:06
hate more than than our ad reads right
52:11
and i never want to do an ad
52:12
read and if i talk to a sponsor
52:15
like i am never doing an ad read
52:18
it's got to be something that like i
52:19
can talk about in the normal flow of
52:21
a conversation or something like when we
52:25
were with c-four like i could drink it
52:26
on air there you guys see it
52:30
And you guys know I truly was drinking
52:32
that shit all the time.
52:34
The case that you sent me,
52:36
the care package,
52:37
whatever you want to call it,
52:39
it lasted me over a month.
52:41
I still got the shaker bottle.
52:45
Yeah,
52:46
I'm almost done with the Heller video with
52:48
Liz.
52:49
It's great.
52:51
I love the stories of people who work
52:54
and do this CrossFit thing for a living.
52:57
And
52:59
She's badass, man.
53:05
I've got ten minutes left at the end
53:08
of that, but yeah,
53:09
I definitely caught most of it.
53:14
She's just one state over.
53:18
Where's she at?
53:20
Indiana.
53:20
Indiana.
53:23
Oh, Indiana.
53:24
One of my buddies texted me last night
53:26
and he's going to MFC next weekend and
53:28
said.
53:30
Is that next weekend already?
53:34
Yeah, next weekend or weekend after that.
53:35
It's in October coming up.
53:37
I had the memories from twenty three pop
53:39
up on my phone.
53:41
Matter of fact,
53:42
I flew home today two years ago.
53:49
I like you're texting me.
53:51
But anyway,
53:52
one of my partners who was competing in
53:54
my division was like, he said,
53:56
I got most of them done, you know,
53:59
just testing and whatnot.
53:59
He said,
54:00
you think you test a couple of them
54:01
for me?
54:01
Because I have no idea.
54:03
I need to go faster if I'm going
54:05
fast enough, blah, blah, whatever.
54:07
And I was,
54:08
felt pretty good about myself that I got
54:10
my peers over here and trying to get
54:12
me to test stuff for them because they
54:13
know I'm not going to see how they
54:15
stack up.
54:21
Mayhem podcast ads are better when Rich
54:22
read them half-assed.
54:24
Now they are pre-recorded and no fun.
54:26
I agree.
54:27
Yeah, I'd say so.
54:29
But I'd also say that when he did
54:31
them half-assed, when he first did that,
54:33
it was definitely refreshing.
54:35
But that even gets old after a bit.
54:38
But if you truly use the product,
54:41
why does it need to be a recorded
54:45
or even read thing?
54:47
It's probably in the contract.
54:51
But then don't sign the contract.
54:53
Like, say the contract,
54:54
I want to be able to talk about
54:55
it freely, how I use it.
54:58
I just...
55:00
other podcasts that do those red things
55:02
just bug the hell out of me oh
55:04
dude look i listen to the sean ryan
55:07
show um fairly often and you can go
55:10
look like as soon as it starts i
55:13
just i know it lasts about a minute
55:15
and a half or two minutes i just
55:16
start fast forward so i can get through
55:18
it because like i don't want to hear
55:20
about gold and that i need to buy
55:23
some or
55:25
pillows or whatever it is that you know
55:28
they're selling like i'm not buying any of
55:29
your stuff i just want to hear about
55:31
what this dude has to talk about back
55:33
in the day like rogan used to have
55:34
like eight minutes of ads before his show
55:37
started like nobody's sitting through
55:40
eight minutes of ads are all fast
55:42
forwarding talk about that uh the opie and
55:47
anthony show uh talk radio out of new
55:50
york
55:52
I remember listening to them.
55:53
I had to go find old episodes or
55:55
whatnot.
55:56
And they had people that would call in
55:57
or email to them or something like that,
56:00
complaining about the ads that they would
56:01
play.
56:02
Now, they're on the radio.
56:04
You have to play commercials.
56:06
You play too many and too many breaks
56:08
or whatnot.
56:08
And he's like,
56:09
why don't you just play all of them
56:11
at once?
56:11
And they were like,
56:12
you do not want us to play five
56:13
minutes of commercials at one time.
56:16
And I got an argument with a dude
56:17
on the phone,
56:18
and they played five minutes of
56:20
commercials at one time,
56:21
and it was absolute misery.
56:24
Like just having to sit there and just
56:26
go, oh, there's another.
56:28

That's fantastic.
56:33
I don't buy Volkswagen or whatever.
56:37
Terrible.
56:38
Absolutely terrible.
56:40
And I agree.
56:42
We are now sponsored by
56:47
On that note,
56:51
while we're talking about it.
56:53
Oh, that's good shit.
56:56
With that, guys,
56:57
thank you so much for hanging out with
56:59
us today.
57:00
It's been a blast.
57:01
I know Jan and Jake have Velner on
57:03
again today.
57:04
So you might want to go check that
57:07
out.
57:08
I love Jan and Jake.
57:10
I just don't know if I can do
57:11
another Velner video.
57:14
I'm curious.
57:16
So like, I'm going to turn it on,
57:18
but just cause I'm curious,
57:19
that's really it.
57:20
And then, um, starting next week,
57:23
I'm going to start bringing in some guests
57:24
during the week to have lunch with, um,
57:27
trying to make it more conversational,
57:29
just people from around the sport,
57:31
maybe an athlete, maybe, uh, someone else,
57:35
maybe a volunteer, maybe, um,
57:39
I don't know.
57:41
Tuesday, I'm having Josh Hicks on,
57:43
the head of medical for both WFP and
57:46
has been brought in on many events in
57:48
the CrossFit space.
57:49
He cut his teeth in CrossFit for many
57:52
years.
57:56
He's been a friend of mine ever since
57:57
I was a volunteer back in twenty thirteen.
58:00
So we're going to talk and he's putting
58:03
together programs and safety protocol for
58:08
all fitness events.
58:10
good for him and uh he is he
58:13
was he was brought in on the age
58:14
group crossfit games wfp has hired him to
58:17
do all of their events um and he's
58:21
been brought in on a lot of the
58:22
other crossfit stuff too waterpalooza uh
58:25
things like that so uh that's his
58:28
full-time job now he was an ems uh
58:32
helicopter ems person
58:36
Like food helicopter or rodent helicopter?
58:38
Rodent helicopter, two sites to do EMS.
58:44
So he'll be on next Tuesday.
58:47
We'll talk about what's going on in space,
58:48
what his interpretation of everything is,
58:51
what he,
58:51
how he feels about what's going on in
58:53
space from his perspective.
58:57
And that'll be next Tuesday.
59:00
And we're going to kind of keep those
59:01
kinds of things rolling just to,
59:04
especially during the off season to shake
59:06
things up a little bit.
59:07
When are you going on Chris's show?
59:10
Today.
59:11
Hmm.
59:13
Just about an hour and forty five minutes
59:15
from now.
59:16
All right.
59:19
So.
59:19
Well, listen,
59:19
I am curious to add with how the
59:21
conversation is going with Jan and Jake
59:24
and Patty.
59:28
My guess is we're going to be talking
59:29
about kids and they don't even touch on
59:30
the other stuff.
59:31
That's that's kind of leaning towards
59:34
because Jake could give a shit less about
59:36
the sport.
59:38
Yep.
59:41
Oh, dude, man.
59:42
Thanks.
59:43

59:44

59:52
So with that,
59:52
we'll go out on a high note.
59:55

59:57

the Clydesdale.
1:00:01
