• 1:16
  Two of my favorite,
• 1:17
  favorite bands from college
• 1:18
  because I'm old.
• 1:20
  And yeah, that long ago I was in college.
• 1:25
  But yeah,
• 1:26
  a buddy of mine had an extra
• 1:27
  ticket and his wife is
• 1:30
  going away for the weekend.
• 1:31
  And he said, hey,
• 1:32
  you want to come with me and go hang out?
• 1:34
  And I'm like, yes, I do.
• 1:35
  Yeah, can't turn those down.
• 1:40
  I've wanted to see.
• 1:41
  So when Collective Soul first came up,
• 1:43
  I was living in Tallahassee, Florida.
• 1:45
  They're from Valdosta, Georgia.
• 1:47
  It's like thirty minutes apart.
• 1:50
  Julie and I had tickets to
• 1:51
  see them three times and
• 1:53
  the concert got canceled over weird,
• 1:54
  bizarre things every time.
• 1:57
  And so I've never seen them in concert.
• 1:59
  And now I get a chance to see them.
• 2:01
  So I'm super stoked.
• 2:04
  So, yeah.
• 2:06
  What's up with you guys?
• 2:07
  Anything going on?
• 2:08
  We, I know Jamie, we got a lot.
• 2:10
  So don't spoil.
• 2:12
  Okay.
• 2:12
  Okay.
• 2:15
  So other than that, you're,
• 2:16
  that's all you had going on.
• 2:17
  Yeah.
• 2:18
  Well, yeah,
• 2:19
  I've been really busy with real estate.
• 2:21
  I mean, can't complain.
• 2:22
  It's just,
• 2:23
  I swear I always get busy at
• 2:25
  like the weirdest times.
• 2:28
  Like in summers usually are busier,
• 2:31
  so I should know better.
• 2:31
  But yeah, it's just like,
• 2:35
  hard trying to juggle all
• 2:36
  this trying to you know got
• 2:39
  the games coming up trying
• 2:40
  to be in the gym extra but
• 2:44
  I gotta I mean gotta make
• 2:45
  money so yeah yeah you
• 2:48
  gotta be you gotta do the
• 2:49
  business when the business
• 2:50
  is good exactly carolyn
• 2:56
  Same old for me, just basically training,
• 2:58
  hanging out with the doodles,
• 3:00
  hanging out with what's-his-family.
• 3:02
  What else we do?
• 3:04
  Did we go see a movie this weekend?
• 3:06
  No, last week.
• 3:08
  I get lost track of time now
• 3:09
  because I'm on summer break,
• 3:10
  so I have no sense of days
• 3:12
  and stuff like that.
• 3:13
  So I lose track on what I did this week,
• 3:16
  but same old.
• 3:19
  Yeah.
• 3:19
  I asked, I said to Julie,
• 3:20
  didn't we watch a movie Friday night?
• 3:21
  She goes, yeah, I think so.
• 3:23
  And we can't,
• 3:23
  neither one of us can think
• 3:24
  about what it is.
• 3:26
  And I'm like, well,
• 3:26
  it must've really been a
• 3:27
  good one because neither
• 3:29
  one of us can remember it or the night,
• 3:31
  the name.
• 3:32
  Lex and I watched today sinners.
• 3:36
  Uh, how was it?
• 3:37
  Uh, we have forty five minutes left,
• 3:40
  so we cut it short.
• 3:41
  We're going to watch it
• 3:41
  after the show tonight.
• 3:43
  So the guy I went to see in
• 3:44
  concert like three weeks ago,
• 3:46
  buddy guy is in that movie.
• 3:50
  He's the blues guitarist,
• 3:52
  and supposedly he's in the
• 3:53
  movie like a bunch.
• 3:55
  Yeah.
• 3:56
  He's like one of the main characters.
• 4:00
  I don't watch horror movies, so yeah,
• 4:04
  that's tough.
• 4:07
  Vi, I enjoyed Sinners.
• 4:10
  I like Michael B. Jordan a lot,
• 4:12
  and I like Buddy Guy,
• 4:14
  and I wanted to watch it,
• 4:15
  but I just don't do horror
• 4:16
  movies anymore.
• 4:19
  I don't either like at all
• 4:21
  and lex forced me to watch
• 4:22
  this one so I watched it
• 4:24
  but normally I'm like a
• 4:26
  happy type movie person
• 4:30
  comedies or like love
• 4:33
  stories all for those ones
• 4:35
  yeah I haven't even heard
• 4:36
  of this movie it's on it's
• 4:39
  on hbo max I think right
• 4:41
  now um yeah I uh oh there's okay
• 4:48
  Holly sent me a spreadsheet
• 4:49
  and I couldn't find it.
• 4:50
  Oh yeah.
• 4:51
  I wanted to have it ready for something.
• 4:53
  So sorry.
• 4:54
  I was a little off there, but yeah,
• 4:57
  I've not,
• 4:57
  I didn't really hear of it until
• 4:59
  I was at the concert at the
• 5:00
  buddy car guy concert.
• 5:01
  And I heard everybody
• 5:02
  talking about him being in
• 5:04
  the movie sinners.
• 5:05
  So then I looked it up and I was like,
• 5:07
  probably not going to see that.
• 5:10
  But vice says,
• 5:10
  I would say it's more
• 5:12
  suspenseful than scary,
• 5:14
  but there's definitely some gore.
• 5:15
  I can, I would agree with that.
• 5:20
  I would agree.
• 5:21
  Lex,
• 5:21
  ninety seven percent Rotten Tomatoes
• 5:23
  rating.
• 5:23
  That's pretty high.
• 5:25
  Maybe I'll try it.
• 5:26
  If it's more suspense than horror,
• 5:29
  then I can deal with that
• 5:30
  and I can deal with gore.
• 5:31
  I like eighties action
• 5:32
  movies where things get blown off and.
• 5:36
  Julie and I are watching FUBAR right now,
• 5:38
  the Arnold Schwarzenegger
• 5:39
  series on Netflix.
• 5:41
  It is over the top, over the top.
• 5:46
  blowing people up stuff like
• 5:47
  it is it's done for comedic
• 5:50
  purposes it's so over the
• 5:51
  top okay um so I can handle
• 5:53
  that um Craig says it was a
• 5:57
  good movie um uh Jeff says
• 6:02
  it's very very very dark
• 6:11
  um larry young I'm supposed
• 6:13
  to work out but put this
• 6:15
  put together a shed then
• 6:17
  watched west kit spank john
• 6:18
  young but he did his best
• 6:21
  uh yeah he did I watched that today
• 6:25
  Larry Young said he started FUBAR.
• 6:28
  Garrett, FUBAR is hilarious.
• 6:30
  It really is funny.
• 6:33
  If you were into the eighties action thing,
• 6:35
  it is just an over the top.
• 6:37
  And if you don't know Fortune Meester,
• 6:42
  she's a comedian.
• 6:46
  She makes that whole show.
• 6:48
  Her comedic
• 6:50
  inserts in this show are
• 6:52
  worth worth the watch and
• 6:54
  then schwarzenegger's
• 6:55
  daughter's played by the
• 6:58
  female pilot and top gun
• 6:59
  maverick okay oh I do know
• 7:04
  who this fortune is I just
• 7:05
  looked her up yes she's
• 7:06
  funny she's hilarious yeah
• 7:10
  just if you've seen fortune
• 7:12
  meester and then picture her as a spy
• 7:17
  just pictures a spy.
• 7:19
  You know that it has to be funny.
• 7:24
  I'm not done, so don't screw it up for me,
• 7:27
  Jeff.
• 7:28
  The villain this season was great.
• 7:29
  The dude had the hots for his daughter.
• 7:31
  Every time they meet up with
• 7:32
  guns pointed at each other,
• 7:34
  he counts it as another date with her.
• 7:39
  It's just really funny.
• 7:41
  So...
• 7:43
  Linda says Josh Allen's wife
• 7:44
  is in Sinners.
• 7:46
  I know her as Haley
• 7:48
  Steinfeld because she's in
• 7:50
  my favorite Marvel TV series, Hawkeye.
• 7:57
  If you liked Marvel at all,
• 7:58
  that was the best one they ever did,
• 8:00
  TV series.
• 8:02
  And she was in Pitch Perfect.
• 8:04
  And she was in True Grit,
• 8:05
  where she was nominated for
• 8:06
  Academy Award at like ten.
• 8:09
  So anyway.
• 8:15
  A lot happened this week.
• 8:16
  Last week, we had rumors.
• 8:18
  We had speculation.
• 8:20
  This week, it's official.
• 8:22
  Our very own Carolyn Prevost
• 8:24
  is going back to the games
• 8:25
  for her fourth time.
• 8:30
  How does it feel now that
• 8:31
  you know it's official?
• 8:36
  It's a weird feeling because
• 8:39
  you want to celebrate something,
• 8:41
  But it's like, you can't, I don't know,
• 8:44
  it's weird because it's
• 8:45
  like someone else is
• 8:47
  injured and sad in this scenario.
• 8:49
  And you'd also don't want to
• 8:50
  be like celebrating,
• 8:52
  but you also want like you're happy.
• 8:54
  But yeah, I don't know.
• 8:55
  It's a weird position to be in.
• 8:59
  But happy,
• 9:01
  excited for another opportunity
• 9:02
  to go to the CrossFit Games because,
• 9:05
  you know, every year is never promised.
• 9:08
  You know, ever since twenty nineteen,
• 9:10
  I've finished I finished
• 9:11
  the twenty nineteen games.
• 9:12
  And I remember, you know,
• 9:13
  taking a picture of the
• 9:14
  Jumbotron back then and
• 9:15
  being like on the floor and being like,
• 9:17
  I don't know if they'll
• 9:18
  ever be here again because
• 9:19
  you just don't know.
• 9:20
  Seasons change.
• 9:21
  Athletes are getting better.
• 9:23
  You can get injured, like you don't know.
• 9:26
  Even like in twenty twenty
• 9:27
  two on Jackie Pro,
• 9:29
  like I remember being on
• 9:30
  the rower on the last event
• 9:31
  and like almost crying in the last event,
• 9:33
  like on the road before the
• 9:34
  workout started,
• 9:35
  like taking in the whole stance,
• 9:37
  knowing that like that was
• 9:39
  a good possibility to be my
• 9:40
  last cross the games.
• 9:43
  And then it would have been at that point.
• 9:44
  And then, yeah,
• 9:45
  so it's like every year I
• 9:46
  try to like enjoy the moment.
• 9:49
  It is very hard to do when you're there.
• 9:52
  But, yeah,
• 9:53
  excited to go back because the
• 9:54
  last couple years I haven't been,
• 9:55
  and it was a surprise, I guess.
• 9:59
  Natalie says, celebrate it, girl.
• 10:01
  Vi says, woohoo, congratulations.
• 10:04
  C-Zero-Zero-One, L-F-G-C-P.
• 10:08
  Denise Moore, you worked hard for this.
• 10:11
  Um,
• 10:12
  Jose V do it for Alex and then Va or
• 10:16
  Larry young CP celebrate everything.
• 10:19
  Hundreds of people would
• 10:20
  love that opportunity.
• 10:23
  Um, for sure.
• 10:24
  So, and Vi joy, isn't mutually exclusive.
• 10:27
  You can be excited for
• 10:28
  yourself and still be bummed for Alex.
• 10:32
  Lana Marcine.
• 10:33
  Can't wait to watch you, Carolyn.
• 10:34
  I got to see Lana this weekend.
• 10:38
  Yeah,
• 10:38
  that brings me joy every time I get
• 10:41
  to see Lana.
• 10:41
  I know.
• 10:42
  She's wonderful.
• 10:43
  She always has a big smile on her face,
• 10:45
  and she's just the best.
• 10:52
  So any next steps now that it's official?
• 10:56
  I know you always say,
• 10:58
  I work out like I always work out.
• 10:59
  I'm just going to keep doing what I do.
• 11:01
  It's got me this far.
• 11:05
  Yeah.
• 11:05
  Essentially like volume doesn't change too,
• 11:08
  too much from what I'm doing.
• 11:09
  I just might change the
• 11:11
  specifics of what I'm doing.
• 11:12
  Like, okay,
• 11:13
  now I can implement a little
• 11:15
  bit more peg boards and
• 11:16
  freestanding handstand pushups and yolks,
• 11:19
  things that you see less obvious,
• 11:22
  not like no online comps
• 11:24
  have like some of those.
• 11:25
  Um, but even semifinals,
• 11:27
  some of the things you
• 11:28
  don't see now it's about
• 11:29
  like running everything is outside,
• 11:31
  not on an assault runner.
• 11:33
  Um,
• 11:33
  It's more just the skills
• 11:35
  and touching up on some
• 11:36
  stuff there to get ready for the games.
• 11:39
  But in terms of the volume, not too,
• 11:41
  too much changes from what
• 11:43
  I regularly do throughout the year.
• 11:45
  For me anyways,
• 11:46
  I want to go into the games
• 11:47
  feeling not drained.
• 11:49
  I know a lot of the
• 11:50
  competitors that I compete against,
• 11:52
  they're all...
• 11:53
  YouTube or Instagram saying
• 11:55
  that they train six to eight hours a day.
• 11:57
  I have never trained six to
• 11:58
  eight hours a day.
• 11:59
  I train two to four hours.
• 12:01
  And four hours is if I'm
• 12:04
  chatting a lot and wasting time.
• 12:07
  So it's just,
• 12:09
  I don't train the entire day long.
• 12:10
  So I think I'm more
• 12:11
  efficient in the things that I do.
• 12:14
  probably do a little bit
• 12:15
  less mobility than some of
• 12:16
  them but yeah I don't think
• 12:19
  I changed you too much just
• 12:20
  like I said touch up on
• 12:21
  some skills that will pop
• 12:22
  up right now it's also
• 12:23
  about trying to get me
• 12:24
  better with the heat so
• 12:28
  jogging outside midday
• 12:31
  walking even midday doing
• 12:32
  ruck walks and stuff like
• 12:33
  that just to get used to
• 12:35
  the sun because I've
• 12:36
  traditionally not done very
• 12:38
  well with heat
• 12:40
  Larry Young says, when I watch, I'm like,
• 12:44
  how are these girls so much
• 12:45
  fitter than me?
• 12:46
  Because they do more than lift, Larry.
• 12:50
  That's why.
• 12:53
  Somebody's question.
• 12:54
  We're going to touch on some
• 12:54
  of this as we go.
• 12:56
  Denise says, work smarter, not harder.
• 12:59
  And Larry goes, I know the answer,
• 13:01
  just giving props.
• 13:03
  Yeah.
• 13:04
  We all know.
• 13:05
  So something else happened
• 13:06
  this week for you.
• 13:07
  And I'm going to share my
• 13:08
  screen real quick.
• 13:10
  And that is that you are
• 13:15
  signed now by Mind Over Matter.
• 13:20
  Is this new?
• 13:23
  I've known you a little
• 13:24
  while and I've never known
• 13:25
  you to have representation.
• 13:27
  Is this the first time
• 13:28
  you've ever had this?
• 13:31
  Yeah,
• 13:31
  I've never had anything throughout my
• 13:33
  whole career.
• 13:34
  I've never even had anyone
• 13:35
  reach out to me and ask me
• 13:39
  for like representation and
• 13:40
  stuff like that.
• 13:42
  I just never really knew
• 13:45
  what comes with it.
• 13:46
  And he reached out to me.
• 13:49
  We have a mutual friend and
• 13:50
  one of his athletes, Liz Wishart.
• 13:52
  So I think she talked to him
• 13:55
  about me and then he
• 13:55
  reached out to me and we
• 13:57
  just talked from there.
• 13:58
  And yeah.
• 14:00
  he's he's the best um he's
• 14:02
  so easy to deal with with
• 14:04
  his athletes um I was when
• 14:07
  I saw this I was like this
• 14:08
  is the perfect match for
• 14:09
  you he has three doodles
• 14:13
  there you go yeah um I
• 14:18
  think he's also with hattie as well yes
• 14:22
  Reese little wood is one of his athletes.
• 14:25
  So yeah, he's, he's great to work with,
• 14:27
  with the athletes,
• 14:28
  get you in connection with them for,
• 14:31
  for my perspective very easily is,
• 14:34
  is really great about all that.
• 14:35
  So I was really excited for that.
• 14:38
  And the other reason I was
• 14:39
  excited for that is I think
• 14:43
  that you're going to be one
• 14:45
  of the main stories at the games.
• 14:48
  And that is because you're doing both.
• 14:52
  You're doing both the
• 14:53
  Masters games and the Elite games,
• 14:56
  and that's going to be a
• 14:57
  story that they're going to
• 14:58
  start focusing on.
• 15:01
  Have you felt any of that this week?
• 15:07
  Not really, but I think it's a cool story.
• 15:11
  It's a testament to, I think,
• 15:13
  the smart training that
• 15:14
  I've done over the years.
• 15:17
  I think it's really cool
• 15:18
  that you can still compete
• 15:20
  at a high level as you age.
• 15:23
  I think it's easier to do on
• 15:24
  the woman's side.
• 15:25
  You've seen it more on the
• 15:26
  woman's side where some of
• 15:28
  the females have hung on a
• 15:29
  little bit longer than the men's side.
• 15:33
  But yeah,
• 15:33
  I think it's just been smart over
• 15:36
  the years and obviously
• 15:40
  doing something right if
• 15:41
  it's still competitive at
• 15:44
  this point in my career.
• 15:46
  Shay says, first to ever do it.
• 15:49
  She's technically not,
• 15:51
  but... It was my goal this
• 15:56
  year to do that.
• 15:58
  It was my goal to be able to do both.
• 16:02
  I didn't know if it was too big of a goal,
• 16:06
  so I'm very, very happy to do it.
• 16:08
  The only other athlete that
• 16:09
  has done it is... Andrea Pinheiro.
• 16:14
  Pinero.
• 16:15
  Yeah.
• 16:16
  First North American athlete,
• 16:17
  I would say like,
• 16:19
  and that's that holds some
• 16:21
  weight in the same year.
• 16:23
  So Bronislaw did the age
• 16:26
  group last year and he is
• 16:28
  doing the CrossFit games
• 16:30
  individuals this year,
• 16:31
  but is not doing the age group, um,
• 16:35
  So he's the oldest male competitor at,
• 16:39
  I think, thirty six.
• 16:40
  And then I'll be the oldest
• 16:41
  female competitor.
• 16:43
  I think the average age on
• 16:44
  the female side is twenty
• 16:46
  six when I calculated it.
• 16:49
  Yeah.
• 16:49
  So Andrea Pinero did it.
• 16:51
  And I'll be the one to say
• 16:52
  it because I don't want an
• 16:52
  athlete to have to say this.
• 16:54
  She did it coming out of a
• 16:55
  region that was easier to
• 16:56
  qualify for than the way
• 16:58
  Carolyn qualified this year.
• 17:01
  And as Andrew Hiller said,
• 17:02
  and we're all kind of the
• 17:04
  first natural athlete to do
• 17:06
  both in the same year.
• 17:09
  Yes.
• 17:11
  Yeah,
• 17:11
  but she's qualified out of South America.
• 17:15
  If we're all being honest with each other,
• 17:17
  it is much easier to
• 17:18
  qualify out of South
• 17:19
  America than to qualify out
• 17:21
  of North America.
• 17:22
  Yeah.
• 17:23
  So for Carolyn to do it in
• 17:27
  the field she did is a much
• 17:30
  bigger accomplishment.
• 17:31
  Let's be real.
• 17:32
  Now, to be fair,
• 17:34
  could someone like Sam have
• 17:36
  done it years ago?
• 17:38
  Probably, but they were –
• 17:40
  At the exact same time.
• 17:42
  You've only been able to do
• 17:43
  it for the last couple of years.
• 17:45
  So I was wondering who was
• 17:46
  going to be that first
• 17:47
  athlete to do kind of both.
• 17:50
  And then last year it
• 17:51
  happened with Pinero.
• 17:53
  I think Will Moore,
• 17:54
  I tried to do it last year,
• 17:56
  but then got injured.
• 17:57
  And then Bronislaw,
• 17:59
  obviously he didn't qualify
• 18:00
  last year and the
• 18:00
  individual this year does qualify.
• 18:03
  So I think it's cool.
• 18:05
  I think...
• 18:07
  you know,
• 18:08
  and the age group is going to be
• 18:09
  a tough competition.
• 18:10
  Like that's not like it's
• 18:12
  not something that I'm
• 18:12
  looking over at all.
• 18:15
  So I'll need to be on my
• 18:16
  game there and recover well.
• 18:17
  And, you know,
• 18:19
  there's a lot of respectful
• 18:20
  competitors in that division.
• 18:23
  There's a lot of call for
• 18:24
  you to get a road to the games.
• 18:27
  We're only what three weeks
• 18:29
  out less than three weeks out.
• 18:31
  That's going to be tough.
• 18:34
  So, yeah, I wish he got one too,
• 18:38
  but it doesn't look like
• 18:39
  it's going to happen.
• 18:40
  As the next one that's being
• 18:41
  released are the three champion men,
• 18:45
  which is going to be Jeff, James,
• 18:48
  and Justin.
• 18:51
  So my guess is if you're
• 18:53
  going to end the road to the games,
• 18:54
  that's the one you're going to end it on.
• 18:59
  Okay.
• 19:02
  Hillary should come this way.
• 19:04
  Hillary, get on it.
• 19:07
  All right.
• 19:08
  So, Shay,
• 19:11
  we're definitely going to do that
• 19:13
  more likely tomorrow than tonight,
• 19:16
  but we'll touch on it tonight.
• 19:19
  Hattie Kenyo, just getting here.
• 19:21
  Congrats, Carolyn.
• 19:22
  See you soon.
• 19:22
  Thanks, Hattie.
• 19:25
  See you soon, and congrats to you too.
• 19:30
  So,
• 19:32
  The other thing that
• 19:33
  happened for you this week
• 19:34
  is you got an email from
• 19:35
  CrossFit talking that
• 19:38
  there's only going to be
• 19:39
  one outdoor event and some
• 19:41
  of the safety protocols with all that.
• 19:45
  I don't need you to go into
• 19:46
  detail because it's been
• 19:47
  released by Hiller and
• 19:49
  barbell spin and all of those people.
• 19:52
  But what I wanted to get
• 19:53
  from you is after reading that letter,
• 19:55
  did you say to yourself,
• 19:56
  this is your fourth time
• 19:57
  going to the games?
• 19:59
  This is a step in the right
• 20:00
  direction for where
• 20:01
  CrossFit needs to go with
• 20:04
  communication and
• 20:05
  transparency moving forward.
• 20:08
  I thought, like, I thought it was cool.
• 20:09
  Like we have, I've never,
• 20:11
  as far as I can recall, received a letter,
• 20:14
  um, like that.
• 20:15
  I think the lady's name is Wendy maybe.
• 20:19
  Um, and it was pretty detailed on,
• 20:22
  you know,
• 20:22
  where the water station is going
• 20:24
  to be even kind of explaining the,
• 20:26
  the event, like a one mile out,
• 20:29
  one mile back.
• 20:30
  And you do that like twice,
• 20:31
  I'm assuming rowers are there outside.
• 20:34
  And then,
• 20:34
  and then you go back down and
• 20:36
  back for the finale.
• 20:38
  and just explaining where
• 20:40
  the cold tubs are going to be,
• 20:41
  because maybe mid-race you
• 20:42
  need to jump in a cold tub.
• 20:44
  But yeah, I think it's cool.
• 20:52
  But I don't know,
• 20:54
  does it count if an event
• 20:55
  is indoors and then you
• 20:56
  come outdoors for a little
• 20:58
  loop like they've done in the past years,
• 21:00
  if that's considered still
• 21:01
  an indoor event?
• 21:02
  Because I still don't think
• 21:03
  that's off the table, personally.
• 21:06
  I think, you know,
• 21:07
  you've seen a lot of
• 21:07
  workouts where there's
• 21:09
  multiple rounds with, you know,
• 21:10
  two hundred to five hundred
• 21:12
  meters of running,
• 21:13
  come back in some sort of gymnastics,
• 21:15
  weightlifting combination
• 21:16
  and go back out.
• 21:18
  So I still think you could
• 21:19
  see something like that pop up.
• 21:22
  Yeah, I I don't know what it means overall,
• 21:27
  but I don't.
• 21:29
  I know a lot of people have
• 21:29
  been dogging CrossFit for so much,
• 21:33
  so many water stations, so many,
• 21:34
  the cold tubs and,
• 21:36
  but come on people like they,
• 21:38
  they get pissed on.
• 21:39
  If they do it one way, they get pissed on.
• 21:40
  They do it the other way.
• 21:42
  It's a,
• 21:42
  it's a step in the right direction.
• 21:44
  And the way it's set up is
• 21:45
  actually better for the spectator.
• 21:47
  If the rowers are at the start line,
• 21:49
  then the spectators can
• 21:50
  gather at that landing and
• 21:53
  they can watch the start of the race.
• 21:55
  They can watch the finish of
• 21:56
  the race and they can watch the row.
• 21:59
  And it actually gives the
• 22:00
  spectators the ability to
• 22:03
  actually watch a good chunk
• 22:05
  of the race as opposed to
• 22:08
  trying to run down and
• 22:10
  catch a piece here and a
• 22:11
  piece there along the way.
• 22:15
  It's probably cheaper to rent out,
• 22:16
  you know,
• 22:17
  one mile of whatever that area
• 22:19
  is versus significantly more of it.
• 22:22
  I mean,
• 22:24
  I'm assuming it's like rented out
• 22:25
  or whatever it would be, but.
• 22:30
  uh cross fat says I don't
• 22:33
  know if I remember albany
• 22:34
  really has the space for an
• 22:35
  inside outside loop it's
• 22:37
  not the same location as
• 22:38
  dickies yeah um but we know
• 22:41
  like syndicate found a way
• 22:42
  and we know um geek carson
• 22:46
  had a way it was it was all
• 22:48
  outside because carson was
• 22:49
  all outside but um that
• 22:51
  they went outside the
• 22:51
  tennis stadium and back in
• 22:53
  I mean, even the stairs,
• 22:54
  utilizing the stairs of
• 22:55
  some sort like they've done
• 22:57
  in Carson could be an
• 22:58
  option if there's no
• 23:00
  running out of the stadium.
• 23:05
  Yeah.
• 23:07
  Well, at the end of the day,
• 23:08
  we're so proud of you.
• 23:10
  And then I do want to finish
• 23:12
  with this one thing that
• 23:15
  Lex and you pulled off.
• 23:18
  And I want to share this with the people.
• 23:22
  And that is.
• 23:26
  nothing beats a crossfit
• 23:27
  games holiday and right now
• 23:29
  use code carolyn twenty and
• 23:31
  you can save twenty percent
• 23:32
  off that gives carolyn
• 23:34
  fifty dollars per person
• 23:36
  that's two hundred dollars
• 23:38
  for a family of four
• 23:44
  nothing beats a crossfit
• 23:45
  games holiday and right now
• 23:48
  use code carolyn twenty if
• 23:49
  you are going to the
• 23:50
  crossfit games and don't have tickets
• 23:52
  You can get twenty percent
• 23:54
  off by using this code.
• 23:56
  And Carolyn gets fifty
• 23:59
  dollars for every ticket
• 24:00
  purchased through that code.
• 24:02
  So that's a way to help her
• 24:04
  get to the CrossFit Games.
• 24:07
  So I wanted to share that.
• 24:08
  If you're lost with what that is,
• 24:10
  it's like a back,
• 24:12
  like a voiceover that's all
• 24:14
  over CrossFit.
• 24:15
  um tiktok and even instagram
• 24:17
  and stuff it's like a jet
• 24:18
  two holiday so that's what
• 24:20
  like it was in my head
• 24:21
  during our entire walk with
• 24:23
  dogs and then lex just like
• 24:25
  changed it into that and I
• 24:27
  was like hold on say that
• 24:28
  again and had to film it um
• 24:34
  carolyn psyched by all
• 24:35
  those empty seats hopefully
• 24:37
  they fill up hopefully they fill up
• 24:42
  clock I am lost yeah I did I
• 24:45
  didn't know the reference
• 24:46
  at all but I thought lex
• 24:47
  saying it was funny so
• 24:50
  that's where I got my um
• 24:52
  that's where I got my
• 24:53
  enjoyment out of it it's
• 24:55
  all over I can't escape it
• 24:57
  now it's like the voiceover
• 24:59
  is all over social media
• 25:00
  whenever I open it you used
• 25:02
  it so now it's in your
• 25:04
  algorithm and now you're
• 25:05
  stuck with it forever
• 25:09
  So the next thing I wanted
• 25:10
  to talk to is our very own
• 25:16
  Jamie Latimer took on Tyson
• 25:17
  Bajent and she ended up
• 25:23
  beating Tyson Bajent in the,
• 25:27
  now I've got to find, here we go.
• 25:29
  I have so many things open.
• 25:32
  If you look, Tyson Bajan, I believe,
• 25:36
  got eighty three reps.
• 25:40
  Yeah, something like that.
• 25:42
  And if you look on this leaderboard,
• 25:45
  there is Jamie Latimer with her.
• 25:48
  Ninety-one reps beating Tyson Bajent.
• 25:54
  And if my research is correct,
• 25:58
  she is the top finishing
• 25:59
  female in the competition
• 26:03
  tied with Mackenzie Riley.
• 26:05
  But Mackenzie Riley didn't supply a video.
• 26:08
  Yeah, right there.
• 26:09
  So that means Jamie submitted her video.
• 26:15
  And it won't open.
• 26:18
  Where's that?
• 26:19
  There we go.
• 26:24
  So we have Jamie doing beep agent.
• 26:29
  And just so you can see like
• 26:30
  how the best is the flop off the rower.
• 26:34
  So that's about here we go.
• 26:37
  I've done so many of these workouts.
• 26:41
  It's just natural.
• 26:44
  So it's right about here is
• 26:46
  where you come off and
• 26:49
  pound the legs flop and into the burpee.
• 26:52
  I also appreciate you facing the camera.
• 26:54
  I think that should be a
• 26:55
  rule when you do burpees
• 26:59
  over the rower because the
• 27:01
  camera faces towards the screen anyways.
• 27:04
  If you turn towards it, one,
• 27:06
  you make sure that you
• 27:08
  don't go around the rower.
• 27:11
  Then you can also see the
• 27:11
  chest touching the ground.
• 27:12
  I think it should be automatic every time.
• 27:15
  I was shocked when Hiller
• 27:18
  posted the video of Folo
• 27:19
  and Bajent doing it and
• 27:20
  they weren't facing...
• 27:22
  I've, I don't ever,
• 27:24
  and when we do them in class,
• 27:25
  I make everyone do it this way.
• 27:27
  And I have people who like complain,
• 27:29
  they like sort of worry
• 27:30
  about their foot kicking the seat,
• 27:31
  but I just,
• 27:33
  this is the way I make
• 27:33
  everyone do it because you're right.
• 27:35
  Like you,
• 27:36
  you can't cheat the foot slipping behind.
• 27:42
  That's true.
• 27:43
  That prevents mandated to be
• 27:46
  facing the camera.
• 27:47
  You can see the chest touch the ground.
• 27:48
  You can make sure the feet get over.
• 27:51
  Um, yeah, I just, and can I just say, look,
• 27:55
  the cameras is that way.
• 27:56
  So, right, exactly.
• 27:58
  Jim fricking crushed this.
• 28:01
  He's he's like the fittest,
• 28:03
  six year old dude.
• 28:04
  I mean,
• 28:06
  he beat so many people on this
• 28:08
  leaderboard.
• 28:09
  Is he going to the games?
• 28:10
  No.
• 28:14
  yeah he uh jim did podium
• 28:17
  three years ago yeah at the
• 28:19
  games um but his his
• 28:22
  mobility needs a little bit
• 28:24
  of work and he if he could
• 28:26
  if he could get upper body
• 28:27
  mobility back he'd be at
• 28:29
  the games correct yeah I
• 28:31
  mean they had to do bar
• 28:32
  muscle ups this year and he
• 28:33
  doesn't have he couldn't
• 28:34
  get one or he would have
• 28:36
  made it that or the
• 28:37
  overhead walking lunge like
• 28:38
  both of those workouts kind of
• 28:42
  That's what held him back.
• 28:44
  If one of those he could
• 28:45
  have gotten a little better,
• 28:46
  he would have.
• 28:48
  Fergie, that race counts as elder abuse,
• 28:51
  Jamie.
• 28:51
  He really did not want to do it.
• 28:53
  It's like he wants to do it,
• 28:57
  but he doesn't.
• 29:00
  He doesn't like when we
• 29:00
  don't train together.
• 29:01
  If I do something different,
• 29:03
  he wants to do everything I'm doing.
• 29:07
  The other thing I want to
• 29:07
  point out is Jamie used the WeTime app.
• 29:11
  So it actually has like her
• 29:14
  rowing pace and all of that
• 29:17
  kind of stuff.
• 29:18
  And because of that,
• 29:20
  we actually have some data
• 29:25
  that I'm going to share.
• 29:30
  And anybody who used the WeTime app,
• 29:32
  we were able to do this.
• 29:34
  And I say we.
• 29:35
  I had nothing to do with this.
• 29:36
  Does it cost money to have the WeTime one?
• 29:40
  It's a subscription, right?
• 29:42
  I have a subscription, yes.
• 29:43
  I have a yearly.
• 29:44
  Like,
• 29:45
  there are certain events that provide
• 29:48
  it if they have rowers in the workout.
• 29:50
  Like,
• 29:50
  I think – I'm trying to think if the
• 29:52
  Open does –
• 29:54
  like gives it to you for
• 29:55
  free for that week or
• 29:56
  whatever it's it's open
• 29:58
  source so that you can have
• 30:00
  access to that connection I
• 30:01
  I feel like for anything
• 30:02
  with a rower it should be
• 30:03
  forced to be connected to
• 30:04
  that so what holly did is
• 30:09
  she broke down she put the
• 30:11
  clock down the left hand
• 30:12
  side um every thirty second
• 30:14
  interval all the way to ten
• 30:16
  minutes which was the cap on this workout
• 30:19
  And because Nick Anopolsky,
• 30:25
  he was second in this to Brandon Luckett.
• 30:31
  He used the WeTime app.
• 30:33
  So she was able to put
• 30:34
  side-by-side Jamie and Nick
• 30:37
  and how they rode and then
• 30:39
  how many burpees they each got.
• 30:41
  every thirty seconds the
• 30:42
  whole way and then she took
• 30:45
  killer and Erica and they
• 30:47
  didn't have the the row
• 30:49
  times but he she got them
• 30:51
  off the rower and then
• 30:53
  their burpee pace to the
• 30:54
  end which is really cool
• 30:58
  and then Brandon's is over
• 30:59
  here on the left which is
• 31:01
  just utterly insane yeah
• 31:04
  the eight thirty a hundred
• 31:06
  burpees a hundred row and
• 31:09
  insane.
• 31:09
  I watched the video.
• 31:11
  There's not a bad rep.
• 31:14
  He just flat out killed it.
• 31:18
  It's really cool data.
• 31:20
  You can see that her row
• 31:22
  pace slowed a little bit at
• 31:25
  the three-minute mark to
• 31:27
  the four-minute mark,
• 31:28
  and then it picked back up
• 31:29
  and down to the one-fifty-three.
• 31:33
  Nick's stayed one-thirty-nine,
• 31:35
  and then it slowed at the end.
• 31:39
  But then your burpee pace was insane.
• 31:43
  Yeah, I was pretty consistent there.
• 31:44
  I was happy with that.
• 31:47
  So, yeah.
• 31:49
  Is it confirmed that
• 31:50
  Mackenzie didn't have a video?
• 31:53
  It's not.
• 31:53
  She didn't post one on the scoreboard.
• 31:56
  Is there a tiebreaker?
• 31:57
  Like, would it be the rope?
• 31:58
  Is that what it would be?
• 32:01
  So I didn't see any information on that,
• 32:02
  and I would hope not because it wasn't.
• 32:05
  That wasn't told to us,
• 32:06
  so that'd be sort of unfair.
• 32:07
  I don't know.
• 32:08
  Hiller was on chat.
• 32:09
  Maybe he'll pick up.
• 32:10
  Worst case, two jerseys.
• 32:11
  There you go, Hiller.
• 32:12
  Make it happen.
• 32:14
  If she doesn't have a video.
• 32:16
  If she has the video, yeah.
• 32:17
  Right.
• 32:19
  What's odd, and I'm not – I like McKenzie.
• 32:23
  We talked a lot at the
• 32:24
  Masters games last year.
• 32:28
  She was at ninety burpees.
• 32:30
  Then Jamie posted her score
• 32:32
  and then she went to ninety one.
• 32:33
  Yeah.
• 32:34
  Which was really weird and still no video.
• 32:37
  And I'm not accusing anybody of anything.
• 32:40
  But those are those things
• 32:41
  that make you go.
• 32:41
  Hmm.
• 32:46
  So anyway.
• 32:48
  But there were a lot of
• 32:49
  Masters athletes that took their shot.
• 32:50
  Carleen Matthews was in there.
• 32:54
  Yeah.
• 32:54
  So and Jamie beat them all.
• 32:58
  thanks not the only thing
• 33:02
  she crushed lately I know I
• 33:05
  know so so have you heard
• 33:09
  anything from Hiller at
• 33:10
  this point or okay because
• 33:15
  I was curious if he had
• 33:16
  sent anything out or well
• 33:18
  he messaged me he did
• 33:20
  message me back about my
• 33:21
  hip so he did finally get
• 33:23
  that and he just said
• 33:24
  congrats on beating Bajent
• 33:26
  that's all he said okay
• 33:31
  The other thing that
• 33:32
  happened this weekend is
• 33:34
  every year there's a really
• 33:35
  cool competition on Lake
• 33:36
  Michigan called Fresh Coast.
• 33:39
  Jamie and her two friends
• 33:41
  signed up in the Masters Division.
• 33:44
  This is the competition that
• 33:45
  if you ever watch the Rich
• 33:46
  Froning podcast,
• 33:47
  him and his cousins go to
• 33:49
  every single year.
• 33:51
  And Rich had a team of Dan
• 33:52
  Bailey himself and a cousin, right?
• 33:58
  I don't know that that guy's
• 34:00
  related at all.
• 34:00
  It's, it's like something web.
• 34:03
  I think,
• 34:04
  I think it's just one of the guys
• 34:06
  from the gym.
• 34:08
  And there was another team
• 34:10
  with a hunt sucker and Tim Sanchez.
• 34:13
  And I don't know who their third guy is,
• 34:18
  but let's show some video.
• 34:28
  Here is Jamie and her team
• 34:29
  doing some rope climbs.
• 34:34
  And I'm muting the music.
• 34:38
  But there's Jamie doing a rope climb.
• 34:41
  You have that,
• 34:42
  like that pool you have is insane.
• 34:45
  This,
• 34:46
  I will say this year's comp had like
• 34:49
  all of my favorite things.
• 34:52
  We had rope climbs, toe to bar,
• 34:53
  bar muscle up, burpees.
• 34:58
  Do bar muscle-ups still hurt
• 34:59
  your shoulder?
• 34:59
  No, not really.
• 35:03
  Is your shoulder fine now?
• 35:03
  Oh, no.
• 35:04
  No, it's not fine.
• 35:08
  So if you look in the background,
• 35:10
  that's Lake Michigan.
• 35:12
  It's beautiful there.
• 35:13
  Literally beautiful.
• 35:15
  So then they run down and
• 35:16
  Jamie starts doing snatches.
• 35:19
  And the camera actually does
• 35:20
  zoom in here in about a second.
• 35:24
  There we go.
• 35:26
  And don't adjust your TV set.
• 35:28
  That's just their outfits.
• 35:33
  We are fleo trio.
• 35:34
  So you ended up,
• 35:36
  you ended up winning the
• 35:37
  competition in the master's division.
• 35:38
  Correct.
• 35:40
  So tell us about how the
• 35:41
  weekend went from an overall perspective.
• 35:46
  It was good.
• 35:46
  Like it,
• 35:47
  Last year was super hot.
• 35:49
  You were there.
• 35:49
  This year was not crazy hot,
• 35:52
  although it was kind of humid.
• 35:53
  Like the sun would go away
• 35:55
  and then it would come back out.
• 35:57
  It actually sprinkled for like ten minutes,
• 36:00
  not when we were working out.
• 36:02
  We probably would have enjoyed that.
• 36:03
  But it was like I said,
• 36:05
  it was a lot of my favorite things.
• 36:07
  I actually feel like this
• 36:08
  year's programming was much
• 36:10
  more team oriented.
• 36:14
  You couldn't really hot this.
• 36:16
  So this workout that you're
• 36:17
  watching right now with the rope climbs,
• 36:18
  you could hide your weakest athlete,
• 36:22
  but the other two workouts there was,
• 36:24
  I mean, you were working at the,
• 36:26
  you were working at your
• 36:27
  slowest athletes pace.
• 36:29
  There just was really no way around that.
• 36:31
  Um, we had to do synchro total bar,
• 36:34
  which can always become a shit show.
• 36:36
  If things start falling apart.
• 36:38
  And even the bar muscle ups at the end,
• 36:41
  you had,
• 36:41
  someone had to be hanging on the bar.
• 36:44
  So like two people were always working.
• 36:48
  But yeah,
• 36:49
  those was a lot of my favorite things.
• 36:52
  Is it a two day competition?
• 36:54
  No, it's so it is a two day competition,
• 36:56
  but day two is intermediate scale.
• 37:00
  So they want the first day is all, all RX.
• 37:04
  And then the second day is scaled and,
• 37:08
  So the first event was a cool event.
• 37:11
  I don't have video of it.
• 37:12
  I just had some pictures.
• 37:13
  Aaron didn't video that one.
• 37:16
  So it was nine rounds for time,
• 37:17
  worm squats.
• 37:20
  So you had to do fifteen worm squats.
• 37:22
  And then one person would go
• 37:24
  out to the water.
• 37:25
  There was kind of like a
• 37:27
  disc golf basket stuck in
• 37:29
  the water forty yards out.
• 37:31
  So you had to get out there,
• 37:32
  grab the ball out of the basket,
• 37:34
  get back in and stick it in a tube.
• 37:36
  While you were doing that,
• 37:38
  one person was skiing.
• 37:40
  The ladies had twelve kills.
• 37:41
  the third partner had to be doing burpees.
• 37:43
  So once again,
• 37:43
  like everyone was working
• 37:45
  and you couldn't go back to
• 37:46
  squats until everyone was done.
• 37:48
  And you just kept rotating through that.
• 37:49
  So it was nine rounds.
• 37:51
  You had to go to the water, to the burpees,
• 37:56
  to the skier,
• 37:57
  and you kept rotating
• 37:58
  through that from whatever
• 37:59
  station you started on.
• 38:01
  So that was that workout.
• 38:03
  We did pretty good in that one.
• 38:04
  Um,
• 38:05
  we were first in the masters in that
• 38:06
  workout and like seventh or
• 38:08
  eighth overall in the whole competition.
• 38:11
  And then the second workout
• 38:13
  was the rope climb one.
• 38:16
  We were first in that in masters.
• 38:17
  I don't know where we were overall.
• 38:19
  And then that one was a part two,
• 38:21
  had a part two.
• 38:22
  So two minutes after the rope climbs,
• 38:23
  you had to do a one rep max clean.
• 38:26
  Uh,
• 38:27
  and that was an eight minute cap for
• 38:28
  all three of us to hit,
• 38:29
  hit a one rep max clean.
• 38:32
  What'd you hit?
• 38:34
  I hit one ninety five.
• 38:36
  I just.
• 38:37
  We like got a little
• 38:38
  flustered with I didn't
• 38:40
  realize Courtney had missed her.
• 38:42
  We like jumped and we were
• 38:44
  going back and forth trying
• 38:45
  to figure out what Courtney
• 38:46
  needed to hit.
• 38:47
  So we were messing with plates.
• 38:48
  I tried to do two hundred at the end.
• 38:50
  I just I don't think I was committed.
• 38:51
  The one ninety five felt great.
• 38:53
  And I was like, oh,
• 38:53
  I can totally hit two hundred.
• 38:55
  But I think just going back
• 38:56
  and forth there for the
• 38:57
  last two minutes feeling rushed.
• 38:59
  I once I got my shot, I just.
• 39:02
  I don't know.
• 39:03
  It wasn't a great attempt.
• 39:04
  Do you prefer power clean or squat clean?
• 39:07
  Yeah,
• 39:07
  there's no chance I'm squat cleaning.
• 39:09
  You're a power clean person.
• 39:10
  Yeah.
• 39:14
  And those boards,
• 39:17
  so there's just like a
• 39:18
  little piece of plywood out there,
• 39:19
  a little piece of plywood out there,
• 39:21
  a platform, and they get sandy.
• 39:26
  So it can be a little bit
• 39:27
  nerve wracking doing
• 39:28
  certain movements on there
• 39:30
  if you feel like your
• 39:30
  foot's going to slip.
• 39:33
  Um, so then, so yeah,
• 39:34
  so then the clean and then,
• 39:36
  which that's what killed us.
• 39:37
  Like for overall,
• 39:39
  we were like twenty ninth overall in the,
• 39:41
  in the lift.
• 39:42
  But again,
• 39:43
  we've totally messed up the weight.
• 39:44
  Courtney could have probably
• 39:44
  hit like ten pounds more.
• 39:45
  We messed, messed that up.
• 39:47
  And then the final workout was the worm.
• 39:51
  You had to worm lunge, synchro total bar.
• 39:54
  Shoulder to overhead repeat.
• 39:57
  And then it ended with.
• 39:58
  Uh, bar muscle ups for the ladies.
• 40:02
  And we were seventh overall
• 40:05
  in that we took first and
• 40:06
  masters in that one as well.
• 40:08
  Um, but I thought fun fact rich.
• 40:11
  So Rich's team won the
• 40:14
  masters first overall and masters,
• 40:16
  and they were tenth overall
• 40:18
  in the competition.
• 40:19
  And we were first in the
• 40:20
  Masters and tenth overall
• 40:21
  in the competition.
• 40:22
  So same, same as Rich Froney.
• 40:24
  And that's cool that you can
• 40:29
  compare the same workouts.
• 40:31
  Yeah.
• 40:31
  Yeah.
• 40:31
  Awesome.
• 40:33
  Yeah.
• 40:33
  At least you didn't have to
• 40:35
  use BPC to get there.
• 40:37
  I'm just kidding.
• 40:41
  Just kidding, Rich.
• 40:41
  Just kidding.
• 40:45
  But when you look at, like,
• 40:46
  when I was there last year,
• 40:47
  Dan Bailey was on Rich's team last year,
• 40:50
  too.
• 40:51
  And you see them in a local comp,
• 40:53
  and it just looks weird.
• 40:55
  Yeah.
• 40:57
  But, yeah.
• 40:59
  Dan just manhandles the weight.
• 41:01
  It's insane.
• 41:02
  Like,
• 41:02
  you know Rich is efficient and strong,
• 41:05
  but, like, the shouldered overhead was,
• 41:06
  we had to do a
• 41:10
  Um, and like rich moves it,
• 41:13
  but Dan just manhandles the
• 41:15
  way it is insane.
• 41:17
  He's so beefy.
• 41:19
  Yeah.
• 41:20
  Now,
• 41:20
  like he compared to like his CrossFit
• 41:23
  heyday, like he is just so strong.
• 41:27
  And so, so beefy.
• 41:29
  I don't know what, uh,
• 41:30
  whatever other way to put it.
• 41:32
  Um, uh,
• 41:36
  Jamie is the fit mom doing
• 41:37
  handstand walks while
• 41:38
  waiting in the pickup line at school.
• 41:41
  I did use to take,
• 41:42
  when I would take looks to
• 41:43
  soccer practice,
• 41:44
  I would have like my
• 41:44
  barbell and everything in
• 41:46
  the back of the car and
• 41:47
  lift while he was doing
• 41:48
  soccer practice or go run
• 41:51
  around the track or whatever.
• 41:54
  I mean,
• 41:55
  I want to be like Jamie when I grow up,
• 41:58
  Jay Birch, uh,
• 42:00
  such a beast power princess.
• 42:06
  Great job, Jamie.
• 42:08
  Hell yeah.
• 42:09
  From Craig.
• 42:11
  And Dan looks like a melted
• 42:12
  action figure now.
• 42:14
  Come on now.
• 42:15
  I'm not melted.
• 42:18
  He's still pretty ripped.
• 42:19
  He is crazy ripped.
• 42:22
  It's crazy to watch them, though,
• 42:24
  like push that hard.
• 42:26
  Like, I mean,
• 42:27
  Dan was just full saliva in
• 42:31
  the last workout,
• 42:32
  like bending over while
• 42:33
  someone's going up to do
• 42:34
  the bar muscle-up,
• 42:35
  and he's just like got –
• 42:37
  I was like, Oh my God,
• 42:38
  this is wrecking them.
• 42:40
  And I, and we're watching it.
• 42:41
  Cause the men went first and I was like,
• 42:44
  this is over programmed.
• 42:45
  Like it's killing them there.
• 42:48
  And only like seven teams finished.
• 42:50
  I don't know how many of the men's,
• 42:51
  but only like seven,
• 42:52
  six or seven teams finished that workout,
• 42:55
  that final workout in the
• 42:57
  whole competition for women.
• 43:00
  It was crazy.
• 43:02
  yeah dan was hurting see
• 43:03
  lana knows dan was hurting
• 43:06
  it was great rolling all
• 43:07
  over stuff it was crazy uh
• 43:11
  jay birch yes dan bailey
• 43:12
  yes that the guy who caught
• 43:14
  the sunglasses hurtling at
• 43:17
  the crossfit games that
• 43:18
  same dan bailey yeah so good time
• 43:28
  And you stay on a boat,
• 43:29
  like your sister's boat the weekend.
• 43:32
  So you have like a blast.
• 43:33
  Yeah.
• 43:34
  Yeah.
• 43:35
  They,
• 43:36
  my nephew is playing in States for
• 43:39
  U-Fourteen Baseball All-Stars.
• 43:42
  So they weren't,
• 43:43
  this is the first year they
• 43:44
  haven't made it.
• 43:45
  So we did sleep on the boat.
• 43:47
  They let us stay on the boat,
• 43:49
  but nobody drove the boat over.
• 43:51
  Normally the boat comes over
• 43:53
  there to Muskegon and park
• 43:54
  and anchors out and we go
• 43:57
  to the deck for food
• 43:58
  afterwards and then take
• 43:59
  the boat back home.
• 44:00
  But
• 44:01
  they weren't there.
• 44:02
  So we just, we just slept on the boat,
• 44:04
  but it was nice.
• 44:04
  We went back to the Marina.
• 44:06
  There was a taco truck at the Marina.
• 44:07
  We got to sit, swim in the pool,
• 44:09
  sit in the hot tub, uh,
• 44:11
  hang out with all of my
• 44:13
  sister's friends at the
• 44:14
  Marina and actually Kate.
• 44:15
  So Caitlin has a boat at the Marina too.
• 44:18
  So both Caitlin and Courtney
• 44:19
  came back to the Marina and
• 44:20
  we went in the pool.
• 44:21
  So it was nice to just have
• 44:22
  the team team back there together.
• 44:25
  Nice.
• 44:27
  All right,
• 44:27
  we're going to move on to factor fiction.
• 44:29
  It's a long one tonight.
• 44:31
  We actually have five factor
• 44:33
  fiction questions for the
• 44:34
  two of you to think about.
• 44:38
  The first one is factor fiction.
• 44:43
  Grid League is becoming a
• 44:44
  good alternative as
• 44:45
  entertainment on slow CrossFit weekends.
• 44:54
  I mean, fact, like it gives me, like,
• 44:57
  I didn't watch much of it,
• 44:58
  but I watched some of the
• 44:58
  highlights on Instagram,
• 45:00
  but I don't know how many
• 45:02
  people actually watch like
• 45:03
  the whole thing.
• 45:03
  But I think anytime that you
• 45:04
  see certain people that, you know,
• 45:06
  compete in anything,
• 45:07
  like I just kind of follow
• 45:08
  it to some extent, but.
• 45:10
  I think it's not bad for CrossFit.
• 45:12
  It just is something that
• 45:14
  people can consume that type of content.
• 45:16
  Just like if there's a major
• 45:18
  high rocks event with a
• 45:19
  bunch of CrossFit athletes
• 45:21
  that we want to see what,
• 45:21
  how they're going to do,
• 45:22
  like naturally I'll look at
• 45:24
  the leaderboard.
• 45:27
  I feel like it's going to, it draws in,
• 45:29
  I don't know.
• 45:30
  It's,
• 45:30
  it's a weird crowd that I draw that
• 45:34
  it draws.
• 45:34
  And I think for one and for two,
• 45:35
  it's like,
• 45:37
  if you don't know exactly what's going on,
• 45:39
  it's can be confusing.
• 45:41
  And so you have to be like,
• 45:42
  you have to be CrossFit
• 45:43
  aware so that you can kind
• 45:44
  of understand what's going on.
• 45:45
  But then if you're CrossFit
• 45:46
  aware and you're watching it, you're like,
• 45:47
  what the F is this?
• 45:48
  Like,
• 45:48
  why are they power cleaning like this?
• 45:50
  Why are they doing this?
• 45:51
  So like,
• 45:53
  it just sort of shits on the movements.
• 45:55
  And you're like, I don't,
• 45:56
  I don't want this to spread.
• 45:57
  Like,
• 45:57
  I don't want people watching this and
• 45:59
  thinking this is how you
• 45:59
  should move that like that.
• 46:02
  I don't know.
• 46:03
  Yeah, there's some of that.
• 46:04
  But then there's also like
• 46:06
  events where it's just a
• 46:06
  bunch of backhand springs
• 46:08
  and then a sprint and then a sprint.
• 46:09
  It's like, whoa, what is this?
• 46:11
  You know?
• 46:12
  Yeah.
• 46:12
  Especially those small clips
• 46:13
  that they can put on
• 46:14
  Instagram will really
• 46:15
  captivate like a lot of
• 46:16
  people's attention.
• 46:19
  And then some of the other things,
• 46:20
  like you said,
• 46:20
  some of the movements
• 46:22
  standards are not the same as ours.
• 46:25
  It's a spectacle for sure.
• 46:27
  So I watch both Saturday and
• 46:28
  Sunday this weekend because
• 46:29
  there was really nothing else on.
• 46:33
  Um,
• 46:34
  and I've gotten into it because I have
• 46:35
  friends now.
• 46:36
  Right.
• 46:36
  And Lauren Olson,
• 46:37
  our friend is becoming a
• 46:39
  rock star in grid Lake,
• 46:42
  even though the Houston
• 46:42
  bandits have not won a game yet.
• 46:45
  Um,
• 46:45
  but I'm going to do these first at AI
• 46:48
  or at Al at AI fact, um,
• 46:52
  denise moore only on ig uh
• 46:54
  kenneth the lap fact craig
• 46:56
  posley fiction uh vi
• 47:00
  fiction snooze uh kenneth
• 47:03
  goes just pure
• 47:03
  entertainment yes um jose
• 47:10
  it's actually unique to watch in person
• 47:13
  uh terry fact but I know
• 47:14
  people in grid um so what I
• 47:17
  wanted to say is what I
• 47:19
  found cool this weekend is
• 47:21
  they actually threw a flag
• 47:22
  on john young um because
• 47:24
  they wanted to go back and
• 47:25
  check his squat depth oh uh
• 47:28
  and they were going to
• 47:29
  judge it and then determine
• 47:30
  whether it impacted the
• 47:32
  race or not and if it would
• 47:33
  have they would have to
• 47:34
  rerun it I didn't know there's flags
• 47:37
  Yeah, and the referee threw the flag.
• 47:40
  So each coach has a challenge flag,
• 47:42
  and the head ref can throw
• 47:45
  a flag to challenge any
• 47:47
  other ref's decision
• 47:48
  throughout the match.
• 47:49
  And that does happen.
• 47:51
  It really slows it down,
• 47:53
  which kind of sucks.
• 47:55
  But they did say that he did
• 47:58
  not meet depth,
• 47:59
  but it did not impact the competition.
• 48:02
  So they are looking at some
• 48:05
  movement standards a little
• 48:06
  bit more than they had in the past.
• 48:08
  But I'm with Carolyn.
• 48:09
  The flips and stuff are crazy.
• 48:11
  But what I do think I wish
• 48:13
  would somehow translate over,
• 48:16
  and I'm going to show you a
• 48:16
  clip from today's match
• 48:18
  between the Venom and the Bandits.
• 48:24
  And that is this one.
• 48:32
  The Bandits had won this match.
• 48:34
  Tim Rattay, former...
• 48:40
  CrossFit guy.
• 48:43
  This is him celebrating his win.
• 48:46
  Three points for that one for winning.
• 48:49
  I can't stand them.
• 48:51
  They're going to get three
• 48:52
  points since they threw the bonus flag.
• 48:54
  They're going to see if Tori
• 48:55
  Height gets one point for
• 48:57
  finishing within the... I don't know.
• 48:59
  Is that the Gangnam Style dance?
• 49:03
  It is.
• 49:04
  And then him and this other
• 49:05
  Asian guy start doing Asian
• 49:08
  dances together for a while.
• 49:12
  And it's hilarious.
• 49:13
  Oh, my gosh.
• 49:16
  It's very entertaining, right?
• 49:18
  Yeah.
• 49:19
  And then there's our friend Lauren Olson.
• 49:21
  It became a dance party.
• 49:22
  Lauren is always down to dance.
• 49:24
  If you watch anything of her Instagram,
• 49:29
  she's always dancing.
• 49:30
  Oh, my gosh.
• 49:33
  It does seem like they have
• 49:34
  really good camaraderie
• 49:37
  within their teams too.
• 49:38
  Like from some of the things
• 49:39
  I've seen from Lauren's
• 49:40
  story and just how they
• 49:42
  bond together over the weekend.
• 49:43
  It looks fun.
• 49:45
  Yeah.
• 49:46
  And I think there's a place
• 49:47
  for it for sure.
• 49:49
  I mean,
• 49:51
  I do think like there's a lot of
• 49:53
  lag time in between events
• 49:55
  for something that's
• 49:56
  supposed to happen like in an hour.
• 49:58
  I wish they could clean that
• 49:59
  up if they could.
• 50:00
  And it was just an hour before,
• 50:03
  it's done I think it'd be
• 50:04
  perfect and it'd be an easy
• 50:06
  watch but it is crazy that
• 50:12
  um the savannah bananas of
• 50:16
  crossfit yeah some of those
• 50:19
  dances that they do for the
• 50:21
  baseball is so funny uh
• 50:26
  whoop gangnam style um
• 50:30
  And the announcers are fun.
• 50:33
  The announcers are very open
• 50:35
  to talk about how they feel
• 50:37
  about something or whether
• 50:39
  they believe a challenge
• 50:40
  was warranted or not.
• 50:43
  It's a very different kind
• 50:44
  of flow than what we get in CrossFit.
• 50:48
  And it's all women.
• 50:49
  Yeah.
• 50:51
  And it's really, really cool.
• 50:53
  but I do not get the flippy stuff.
• 50:55
  Like they, they do burpee flips,
• 50:59
  burpee back flips.
• 51:00
  They do another thing where
• 51:02
  it's like a handless round off.
• 51:05
  I saw Alex Smith do a
• 51:06
  handstand walk obstacle course.
• 51:09
  The handstand walk obstacle
• 51:10
  course looks so tough.
• 51:11
  And I thought some of it was unique,
• 51:13
  like you would handstand
• 51:16
  walk then over the hurdle stuff,
• 51:18
  which we've seen, I think,
• 51:19
  in JR's programming as well,
• 51:20
  like over those hurdles.
• 51:22
  His was the blocks,
• 51:23
  but these ones were sticks.
• 51:25
  But even then turning into
• 51:26
  like a lateral walk,
• 51:27
  I thought was really cool,
• 51:28
  like on the line,
• 51:30
  like the athletic lateral,
• 51:32
  then different directions over and back.
• 51:40
  CrossFit says all production
• 51:41
  is pretty buttoned up.
• 51:46
  The flags really slowed it down.
• 51:48
  I totally agree, Terry.
• 51:50
  CrossFit,
• 51:51
  I also like they ran vignettes
• 51:52
  during downtime.
• 51:54
  They do, plus commercials.
• 51:56
  And their commercials,
• 51:58
  their athletes actually say
• 51:59
  how they use the product to
• 52:01
  better themselves on the
• 52:03
  floor for certain things.
• 52:05
  They're really well done.
• 52:07
  Really well produced.
• 52:11
  Terry says the announcers are great.
• 52:14
  Denise says I could see
• 52:15
  Carolyn do a burpee flip.
• 52:19
  They've elevated gymnastics
• 52:20
  way beyond the CrossFit
• 52:21
  level back uprises.
• 52:24
  The stuff they're doing in
• 52:25
  gymnastics is out of this world.
• 52:27
  And Tim Rattay on his hands,
• 52:30
  like I thought Tudor Magda could fly,
• 52:32
  not even close.
• 52:33
  He...
• 52:35
  if they could get a couple
• 52:36
  other specialists on that team,
• 52:37
  I do think they have a shot.
• 52:39
  Cause isn't it Matt?
• 52:40
  Matt, you're right.
• 52:42
  Yeah.
• 52:43
  He, every time I watch him,
• 52:44
  like he gained so much on everybody.
• 52:47
  He is incredible.
• 52:49
  yeah they were the first
• 52:50
  that yesterday they played
• 52:53
  the sharks the kelsey keels
• 52:55
  team and kelsey's keels
• 52:56
  team has not lost a race
• 52:58
  all year they lost
• 52:59
  yesterday twice to houston
• 53:01
  because of those
• 53:02
  specialists yeah pieces um
• 53:05
  it to me the not that I
• 53:08
  want to get into huge
• 53:08
  analytics of grid but
• 53:10
  houston just cannot communicate
• 53:14
  They just cannot communicate.
• 53:15
  They had people doing
• 53:17
  movements past the number
• 53:19
  they're supposed to,
• 53:20
  and people didn't get off
• 53:22
  the hash when they're supposed to,
• 53:23
  and crazy goofy stuff,
• 53:25
  and that's how they lose.
• 53:26
  They really got to button that up.
• 53:29
  And CrossFat, I know.
• 53:32
  I actually knew after I said
• 53:33
  it that Tim Rattay was the
• 53:35
  forty-niners quarterback,
• 53:37
  and I had messed it up.
• 53:38
  Anyway.
• 53:41
  Anyway.
• 53:43
  That's our first Factor of Fiction.
• 53:46
  So our next one,
• 53:50
  if I can get back to the thing.
• 53:53
  Factor of Fiction.
• 53:55
  There is no competition for
• 53:57
  Rebecca Fusile and Ariel
• 53:58
  Loewen for best content
• 53:59
  creator from the athletes.
• 54:04
  I like their stuff.
• 54:06
  I mean, I would say Fiction.
• 54:08
  I feel like the boys are
• 54:09
  giving a run for their money.
• 54:10
  Colton has really good content.
• 54:17
  I think the special effects
• 54:19
  and stuff that they do is,
• 54:22
  some of it's pretty impressive.
• 54:26
  How well they're doing with
• 54:27
  their different things that they do.
• 54:33
  I think their stuff is the best.
• 54:37
  I'm a fact on this one.
• 54:38
  I think Rebecca used to lay
• 54:39
  her last sets have been epic.
• 54:42
  Like she's getting even better.
• 54:44
  I didn't know she could get
• 54:45
  better and she's getting better.
• 54:49
  She is great.
• 54:50
  She's been,
• 54:51
  and she's been doing these for
• 54:53
  a while longer than Ariel.
• 54:55
  So yeah,
• 54:56
  Yeah, Ariel's more, you know,
• 54:58
  in the past year really
• 54:59
  discovered that creativity,
• 55:01
  that creative side of her
• 55:03
  that she kind of dove in,
• 55:05
  and she's gone really, really good at it.
• 55:12
  The only person I think is
• 55:13
  in any close competition is
• 55:15
  not an athlete,
• 55:16
  and that is Corinne Pepper.
• 55:19
  Yeah, hers are great.
• 55:21
  Corinne Pepper is on fire right now.
• 55:26
  Especially if you're into baking at all.
• 55:28
  Like she does,
• 55:30
  she has both like stuff that
• 55:31
  makes fun of Dallin,
• 55:32
  but then all of her baking stuff.
• 55:34
  And I like following her.
• 55:38
  Uh, for this one,
• 55:40
  we have at AI or Denise more fact, uh,
• 55:43
  at AI fact, um,
• 55:47
  CrossFit for a quiet week.
• 55:48
  This show is buzzing.
• 55:50
  Love to hear that.
• 55:51
  Uh, Craig fact, Megan fact, uh,
• 55:56
  uh,
• 55:57
  cross that the volume that Rebecca
• 55:58
  creates is crazy.
• 56:00
  Yeah.
• 56:00
  It's so relatable, right?
• 56:02
  You'd look at it and you
• 56:03
  send it to your friends.
• 56:04
  Cause you know,
• 56:05
  that stuff has happened in your gym.
• 56:07
  Like it's just so easy to
• 56:08
  send to people and you're like,
• 56:09
  this is you, or this is hits home there.
• 56:12
  Like it,
• 56:13
  she really thinks about things
• 56:14
  that happen every day in the gym.
• 56:15
  And she's like,
• 56:16
  let me make it real about it.
• 56:17
  Um, that's like,
• 56:19
  Meme for time.
• 56:20
  His are always so funny.
• 56:23
  I really like his too.
• 56:24
  And Ariel now is,
• 56:25
  is doing a lot more YouTube
• 56:27
  stuff and she's trying to be, um,
• 56:29
  she said like the female Sulik,
• 56:31
  like on YouTube kind of
• 56:33
  showing her workouts and stuff.
• 56:34
  Yeah.
• 56:34
  Sam Sulik.
• 56:35
  Yeah.
• 56:36
  So she's talked about that.
• 56:37
  And I think she's doing a
• 56:38
  good job with showcasing
• 56:40
  like what her strength days look like.
• 56:42
  And she's chatting through
• 56:43
  like the whole thing.
• 56:44
  Um,
• 56:45
  I've been enjoying watching some of
• 56:46
  those.
• 56:46
  Hmm.
• 56:47
  So yeah,
• 56:48
  she wants to be like the female
• 56:49
  version of it.
• 56:49
  So a Jay Birch, Rebecca fact for sure.
• 56:54
  And Denise,
• 56:55
  Rebecca stuff hits home so many times.
• 56:58
  So yeah, good stuff.
• 57:00
  But yeah, I, I think they're just awesome.
• 57:04
  They're just, they're just killing it.
• 57:06
  And for Ariel,
• 57:08
  she's setting herself up for
• 57:09
  post post career to have a
• 57:13
  little business,
• 57:14
  maybe a little bit of content.
• 57:17
  Some of that.
• 57:20
  Ken Walters, I'm late.
• 57:21
  Congrats, Jamie,
• 57:21
  on winning Scott's Christmas present.
• 57:23
  He wishes.
• 57:26
  You know, someone asked me, like,
• 57:27
  would you want it if Jamie wanted it?
• 57:28
  And I was like, no, it's a trophy.
• 57:31
  Like,
• 57:31
  it's like me saying I want your
• 57:33
  Boston Marathon.
• 57:34
  Yeah.
• 57:35
  Like, it just doesn't make sense.
• 57:37
  Like, I'd rather go get it myself somehow,
• 57:39
  some way.
• 57:41
  Right?
• 57:42
  Yes.
• 57:44
  Uh...
• 57:45
  Craig, yeah,
• 57:46
  Ariel's posting way more workouts.
• 57:48
  I think she said somewhere
• 57:49
  that she thought the Dylan
• 57:51
  videos were doing really well,
• 57:53
  but it turned out the
• 57:56
  analytics showed that they weren't,
• 57:58
  and people actually wanted
• 57:59
  to see more workout stuff.
• 58:00
  That blows my mind.
• 58:01
  It blows my mind, too,
• 58:02
  because I really like what I want to see.
• 58:04
  Yeah, I like the Dylan stuff.
• 58:05
  He's funny.
• 58:07
  I think she can do a mixture,
• 58:08
  but I have been enjoying
• 58:09
  some of her workout ones.
• 58:10
  I think it's pretty cool.
• 58:12
  And like,
• 58:12
  she'll talk about like why she's
• 58:15
  doing this, like this type of movement.
• 58:17
  And I think there's a lot of
• 58:18
  like learning opportunities for people.
• 58:20
  I think it's nice to see a
• 58:21
  female in the space of YouTube doing,
• 58:23
  doing that stuff.
• 58:24
  Like from, from our CrossFit side.
• 58:26
  Um,
• 58:28
  I like how Hiller says he does all the
• 58:30
  analytical,
• 58:31
  the stuff to get them the big
• 58:32
  analytics so that he can do
• 58:34
  the stuff he really enjoys doing that,
• 58:38
  um,
• 58:39
  that don't necessarily do as well.
• 58:41
  So I think that's really cool.
• 58:45
  Um,
• 58:47
  pool boy ran out of categories of
• 58:49
  interest on Pornhub.
• 58:49
  So I'm here.
• 58:51
  Oh, good.
• 58:52
  And got beat by Jamie in the
• 58:54
  beat agent challenge.
• 58:56
  Just saying, uh, pool, he pool boys hurt.
• 59:04
  That's not fair.
• 59:09
  um jamie was super cool to
• 59:10
  me before mfc swim event a
• 59:12
  few years ago I'd never
• 59:13
  swam in an event before
• 59:15
  ever and made me feel way
• 59:17
  better about it been a
• 59:18
  jamie fan ever since just
• 59:19
  snap jamie's kind of nice
• 59:23
  and you got her nice and
• 59:25
  with game face that's
• 59:26
  that's almost a rarity
• 59:27
  though that is a rarity
• 59:29
  yeah I remember speaking
• 59:31
  with jess you've come such
• 59:34
  a long way jess
• 59:37
  So, all right, next one.
• 59:41
  CrossFit sending out safety
• 59:42
  letter is a step in the
• 59:43
  right direction with transparency.
• 59:47
  I think fact, I think that was a good,
• 59:49
  good move by them.
• 59:50
  Especially after last year,
• 59:51
  I think that that was good.
• 59:55
  Yeah, it's, I mean, I,
• 59:59
  I sort of hate it cause I
• 1:00:00
  feel like it shouldn't need
• 1:00:01
  to be stuff that said, but yeah,
• 1:00:04
  you're earlier you said
• 1:00:06
  they're damned if they do
• 1:00:07
  they're damned if they
• 1:00:07
  don't like that's totally
• 1:00:08
  true they need to they need
• 1:00:09
  to show that they're
• 1:00:11
  putting out information to
• 1:00:12
  the athletes because
• 1:00:13
  clearly that's I mean the
• 1:00:14
  clear they've been asking
• 1:00:16
  for it um and I don't know
• 1:00:18
  that like I almost wish it
• 1:00:20
  would have been a way to
• 1:00:21
  like keep it private but it
• 1:00:23
  needs to be publicized so
• 1:00:24
  people know that crossfit's
• 1:00:25
  taking a step in the right direction like
• 1:00:28
  Like you were saying,
• 1:00:29
  you liked the way that it's going to,
• 1:00:31
  the course is set up to be the fans.
• 1:00:33
  I would rather the
• 1:00:34
  announcement that came out publicly,
• 1:00:36
  or I don't even guess
• 1:00:37
  someone didn't even come out publicly.
• 1:00:38
  I guess it just all got shared,
• 1:00:39
  but it'd been cooler if
• 1:00:40
  CrossFit just said like, Hey,
• 1:00:42
  here's the course,
• 1:00:43
  like these tickets are free.
• 1:00:45
  Come watch.
• 1:00:46
  And, and,
• 1:00:47
  and that would have given
• 1:00:48
  athletes an idea of what
• 1:00:49
  they were going to see,
• 1:00:50
  but it would have been
• 1:00:51
  promoted to the fans.
• 1:00:52
  Yeah.
• 1:00:53
  They they're marketing to
• 1:00:55
  the fans is not great.
• 1:00:57
  Right.
• 1:00:58
  It's not.
• 1:01:00
  The media to the fans needs
• 1:01:02
  improved vastly.
• 1:01:04
  But at least this is an
• 1:01:05
  improvement in an area that
• 1:01:07
  we've been clamoring for for years.
• 1:01:09
  Even before last year,
• 1:01:11
  we've been clamoring for
• 1:01:12
  more openness about these
• 1:01:13
  kinds of things.
• 1:01:15
  The part that blew me away were,
• 1:01:16
  these are also medications
• 1:01:18
  that you might be taking
• 1:01:19
  that will affect you in the heat.
• 1:01:21
  I thought that was a step beyond...
• 1:01:24
  the cold tubs and the water
• 1:01:26
  and the course and all that
• 1:01:28
  kind of stuff that's the
• 1:01:30
  piece where you could tell
• 1:01:31
  they took it seriously yeah
• 1:01:34
  and that I think I think
• 1:01:36
  people especially after
• 1:01:37
  last year like but even
• 1:01:38
  prior to that you know
• 1:01:40
  we're looking for changes
• 1:01:42
  and to have an email like
• 1:01:44
  that you know you could go
• 1:01:45
  back and be like these are
• 1:01:47
  some of the you know changes that were
• 1:01:50
  we're making this is someone
• 1:01:51
  that we've added to our
• 1:01:52
  team on the safety team.
• 1:01:53
  This is her sending out an
• 1:01:54
  email to the athletes.
• 1:01:56
  And I hope it continues like
• 1:01:58
  that moving forward.
• 1:01:59
  So I think I think it's good.
• 1:02:01
  And it's just showing some
• 1:02:02
  of the changes that are
• 1:02:03
  happening to make it safer.
• 1:02:06
  Like obviously things are
• 1:02:07
  going to happen and
• 1:02:09
  You know,
• 1:02:10
  we can put everything of safety in,
• 1:02:12
  you know, and talk about everything.
• 1:02:14
  And you didn't think about this thing.
• 1:02:15
  And then you readjust the following year.
• 1:02:18
  But I think for the things
• 1:02:19
  that you can already
• 1:02:21
  foresee happening with the heat,
• 1:02:23
  I think sending out that
• 1:02:24
  information was good.
• 1:02:28
  Craig says fact, CrossFit fact,
• 1:02:31
  but only if it lasts more than a year.
• 1:02:34
  Vi fact, pool boy, yes.
• 1:02:38
  He was answering a question.
• 1:02:42
  And he said,
• 1:02:42
  and the anti-open people will
• 1:02:45
  still complain of mine.
• 1:02:50
  Of course.
• 1:02:51
  The FAQ that stated there
• 1:02:52
  was not going to be a swim
• 1:02:53
  at the Masters Games was great.
• 1:02:56
  I don't even know where you
• 1:02:56
  guys would swim.
• 1:02:57
  Yeah.
• 1:03:00
  From where they're holding it.
• 1:03:04
  Yeah.
• 1:03:05
  It would have to be off off-site.
• 1:03:06
  Right.
• 1:03:10
  So next factor fiction.
• 1:03:14
  we go the wfp said they were
• 1:03:15
  going to promote the
• 1:03:16
  athletes in new and
• 1:03:17
  creative ways has that
• 1:03:19
  happened fiction in my mind
• 1:03:24
  I haven't seen anything
• 1:03:25
  like their posts are
• 1:03:28
  confusing I mean like the daniel or the
• 1:03:33
  um bethany shadburn post
• 1:03:35
  like and um tanner blaze's
• 1:03:39
  post like these are people
• 1:03:41
  they're they say like in
• 1:03:42
  the hunt and they're not
• 1:03:43
  even in the hunt they're
• 1:03:44
  not coming to this next
• 1:03:45
  event like they're
• 1:03:46
  confusing people what's
• 1:03:47
  going on in this in the space
• 1:03:53
  I'd say fiction,
• 1:03:56
  because I think there was
• 1:03:57
  some stuff at first with
• 1:03:58
  some of the YouTube things,
• 1:04:01
  but I don't know if I've
• 1:04:02
  just missed some of them lately,
• 1:04:03
  but there hasn't been as
• 1:04:05
  much in the past few weeks.
• 1:04:07
  They started with some good ones, and then,
• 1:04:09
  yeah, there hasn't been, as far as I know,
• 1:04:12
  unless I've missed them.
• 1:04:15
  I'm going to be harder on
• 1:04:17
  this one than you guys are.
• 1:04:20
  I don't think they've done
• 1:04:21
  anything but retread stuff
• 1:04:24
  that's been done before.
• 1:04:27
  When they say new and creative,
• 1:04:28
  I'm looking for innovative
• 1:04:30
  ways to engage with the
• 1:04:33
  athletes in a way that we
• 1:04:34
  haven't seen before.
• 1:04:36
  Doing more buttery bros videos is not new.
• 1:04:39
  We've done that for years.
• 1:04:42
  Even the Laura Horvat video,
• 1:04:43
  which was awesome,
• 1:04:44
  was done in a way that we've seen before.
• 1:04:48
  The, hey,
• 1:04:49
  what's your favorite color videos?
• 1:04:51
  Or what do you like to eat
• 1:04:53
  before an event?
• 1:04:54
  Or I've seen that done before.
• 1:04:58
  People did those on the
• 1:04:59
  floor all the time back then.
• 1:05:00
  They have done nothing new
• 1:05:02
  and creative at all for the athletes.
• 1:05:09
  And in this dead time
• 1:05:11
  between Tour Event One and Tour Event Two,
• 1:05:13
  to promote the athletes and
• 1:05:14
  promote the next tour stop,
• 1:05:16
  they've done nothing.
• 1:05:20
  it's awful.
• 1:05:21
  I agree.
• 1:05:22
  Awful.
• 1:05:24
  And CrossFit media is not.
• 1:05:25
  I heard, I saw that.
• 1:05:27
  I heard it too.
• 1:05:30
  CrossFit media is trash.
• 1:05:31
  It is there.
• 1:05:32
  It is,
• 1:05:33
  but CrossFit didn't come out and say, Hey,
• 1:05:35
  we're going to come up with
• 1:05:36
  new and creative ways to
• 1:05:38
  promote the athletes.
• 1:05:47
  Uh,
• 1:05:47
  there's a new video series that was
• 1:05:48
  just announced.
• 1:05:50
  Those one point five K
• 1:05:51
  winning posts are confusing.
• 1:05:55
  I don't even know what that's what I was.
• 1:05:57
  That's what I'm talking about.
• 1:05:59
  Yes.
• 1:06:00
  That's what they're,
• 1:06:00
  they're super confusing.
• 1:06:03
  They're, like,
• 1:06:04
  highlighting people like
• 1:06:06
  Tanner and Bethany, like,
• 1:06:07
  almost like they're in
• 1:06:09
  thirtieth place or they're
• 1:06:10
  in twenty-seventh place and, like,
• 1:06:11
  here's where they're at.
• 1:06:14
  Tanner didn't even do the second qualifier,
• 1:06:16
  so he's not even going,
• 1:06:17
  so he's not really in the hunt.
• 1:06:20
  And just adding the money is kind of, like,
• 1:06:23
  oh.
• 1:06:23
  Like,
• 1:06:23
  it was supposed to be some big money
• 1:06:25
  that they have.
• 1:06:26
  Yeah.
• 1:06:32
  Um...
• 1:06:35
  Has any athlete increased
• 1:06:36
  their reach at this point?
• 1:06:38
  I don't think there's been
• 1:06:38
  anything done to help with that.
• 1:06:45
  If there's anything,
• 1:06:47
  if those new and creative
• 1:06:48
  ways involve hiring a bunch
• 1:06:49
  of old CrossFit content creators,
• 1:06:51
  it won't be new and creative.
• 1:06:54
  They hired all these new
• 1:06:55
  people to come set the
• 1:06:56
  stage at the live event,
• 1:06:59
  but nobody knew to do the content.
• 1:07:02
  It's all the same people.
• 1:07:05
  So I agree with this completely.
• 1:07:07
  Yeah, I agree with that.
• 1:07:09
  Unless they did a whole
• 1:07:10
  Netflix series thing that
• 1:07:13
  could lead up for the whole
• 1:07:14
  season and then get people
• 1:07:15
  excited for season two.
• 1:07:17
  I don't know that there's much there.
• 1:07:21
  Yeah.
• 1:07:23
  I don't know.
• 1:07:23
  I hear rumblings of big
• 1:07:24
  announcements and big partnerships,
• 1:07:28
  but nothing's announced, nothing.
• 1:07:30
  And Jenny says,
• 1:07:32
  because all eyes are on the games.
• 1:07:34
  Well, because there's no alternative.
• 1:07:36
  And I'm sure most of the
• 1:07:37
  eyes would still go to the games,
• 1:07:39
  but you're not even
• 1:07:40
  fighting for an eye at this point.
• 1:07:48
  Having a traditional podcast
• 1:07:49
  with Saxon Pancheck is not
• 1:07:52
  new and creative.
• 1:07:53
  Having Tommy Marquez do an
• 1:07:55
  update show is not new and creative.
• 1:07:57
  We saw that in two thousand twelve.
• 1:08:01
  That's it just is.
• 1:08:02
  It's just mind boggling to me.
• 1:08:05
  And nothing against either
• 1:08:06
  of those people.
• 1:08:07
  It's just not new.
• 1:08:09
  It's not creative.
• 1:08:15
  I do agree with Ken Walters
• 1:08:16
  that most of the athletes
• 1:08:17
  that have increased their reach,
• 1:08:18
  it's just of doings of their own.
• 1:08:20
  It's them being creative on
• 1:08:21
  their own platforms, whether it's YouTube,
• 1:08:23
  Instagram, Reels, and stuff like that.
• 1:08:26
  It's them growing their own
• 1:08:28
  brand versus the WFP promoting them.
• 1:08:32
  Yeah,
• 1:08:32
  I would say Hopper's grown his brand
• 1:08:33
  more than any athlete this year.
• 1:08:36
  And he's done it all on his own.
• 1:08:46
  Yeah.
• 1:08:55
  I saw a new post,
• 1:08:57
  the post about a new series,
• 1:08:59
  something with yellow.
• 1:08:59
  I miss that.
• 1:09:03
  I missed it too.
• 1:09:11
  Grant, that was not a real offer.
• 1:09:14
  They never even met to have the offer.
• 1:09:16
  Right.
• 1:09:22
  Okay.
• 1:09:23
  So last one.
• 1:09:27
  Dave Castro, Jada Coons,
• 1:09:30
  and the B-Sport people all
• 1:09:32
  being in New York City is a
• 1:09:33
  legit sign that CrossFit is sold.
• 1:09:41
  gonna say fact I mean
• 1:09:43
  whether it's fully sold or
• 1:09:44
  not I would say it's pretty
• 1:09:46
  much a done deal yeah I
• 1:09:50
  agree probably just
• 1:09:52
  planning on when the
• 1:09:53
  announcement's gonna be I'm
• 1:09:54
  assuming after the games I
• 1:09:56
  don't think that that's
• 1:09:56
  something that you wanna do
• 1:09:59
  before the games yeah if
• 1:10:02
  I'm uh if I'm the new
• 1:10:04
  owners I don't want to talk
• 1:10:05
  about it till after the games
• 1:10:09
  so um my guess is there's an
• 1:10:12
  agreement in place the
• 1:10:14
  money's probably sitting in
• 1:10:15
  escrow um and just waiting
• 1:10:20
  to trade hands to the right
• 1:10:21
  moment and then the
• 1:10:22
  announcement will be made
• 1:10:24
  when the new owners want it
• 1:10:25
  to be made and we have
• 1:10:28
  facts all over the place
• 1:10:29
  for this one uh strong fact
• 1:10:35
  a larry young and crossfit
• 1:10:38
  even says money is good
• 1:10:41
  fact why even start the hype
• 1:10:46
  before the games right I
• 1:10:48
  agree yeah this season be
• 1:10:50
  done yeah and then start
• 1:10:52
  everything after oh I'm
• 1:10:56
  sure earnest money's been
• 1:10:57
  spent for sure if I'm the
• 1:11:00
  new owners this is not what
• 1:11:01
  I want to happen I do not
• 1:11:03
  want an announcement at the games
• 1:11:06
  I want the games to be done.
• 1:11:08
  Everybody get their flowers
• 1:11:10
  and do their thing and then
• 1:11:13
  have a strategic plan for
• 1:11:15
  how I'm going to release stuff.
• 1:11:16
  When Dawnfall became CEO
• 1:11:18
  right before the games,
• 1:11:19
  all we got were half-assed
• 1:11:21
  responses for the entire
• 1:11:22
  games and interviews.
• 1:11:24
  I don't want half-assed responses.
• 1:11:26
  I want a full strategic plan
• 1:11:29
  and someone who can answer
• 1:11:30
  questions when they're
• 1:11:31
  ready and they make the
• 1:11:32
  announcement and all that
• 1:11:34
  happens at the same time.
• 1:11:41
  Dotting the I and crossing
• 1:11:42
  the T. Earnest money at a minimum.
• 1:11:45
  And I guess Mike is trying
• 1:11:48
  to say escrow here.
• 1:11:50
  Egg rolls or escrow.
• 1:11:52
  An escrow account, yes.
• 1:11:55
  Yeah.
• 1:12:00
  They have a gathering of
• 1:12:01
  affiliate owners the days
• 1:12:02
  before the games.
• 1:12:03
  I could see that being a
• 1:12:04
  reason to make introductions.
• 1:12:06
  Sure.
• 1:12:06
  Sure.
• 1:12:15
  do you like the potential new owners?
• 1:12:16
  I don't know enough about them.
• 1:12:18
  I'd need to dive in more.
• 1:12:19
  What I've heard sounds good,
• 1:12:23
  but I don't know enough to
• 1:12:27
  say that intelligently at this point.
• 1:12:31
  I don't either.
• 1:12:32
  If you showed me a picture of Malik,
• 1:12:33
  I wouldn't even know who he was.
• 1:12:35
  I have no idea who this person is.
• 1:12:38
  Me neither.
• 1:12:38
  I have no idea who's spying.
• 1:12:40
  I haven't followed any of that.
• 1:12:43
  Yeah.
• 1:12:45
  Scott,
• 1:12:45
  you sound like you want this to be a
• 1:12:46
  professional sport.
• 1:12:48
  Well, it's a business,
• 1:12:49
  and it should be run like a
• 1:12:50
  professional business.
• 1:12:52
  Whether the sport comes
• 1:12:54
  along with a professional tag or not,
• 1:12:56
  I don't really care.
• 1:12:58
  But I think as a business
• 1:13:00
  person and a business owner,
• 1:13:01
  you would want that aspect
• 1:13:03
  to be handled professionally.
• 1:13:07
  For sure.
• 1:13:08
  Which I don't think it has
• 1:13:09
  been for the last five years.
• 1:13:11
  For sure.
• 1:13:17
  So B sport is also the owner of, okay.
• 1:13:20
  That's what my question was.
• 1:13:21
  Is it the dude that owns North?
• 1:13:23
  So what surprised me a
• 1:13:24
  little bit is that they
• 1:13:26
  aren't the clothing sponsor this year.
• 1:13:29
  I mean, maybe they're spending all,
• 1:13:31
  if they're spending all
• 1:13:32
  their money to buy CrossFit,
• 1:13:33
  that's stupid.
• 1:13:35
  Well, no.
• 1:13:36
  Why?
• 1:13:38
  If you're the owner,
• 1:13:39
  why would you sponsor it?
• 1:13:40
  Right.
• 1:13:44
  I don't know.
• 1:13:44
  Cause you have the best stuff.
• 1:13:46
  You want your company to like, you want,
• 1:13:48
  I think if, okay, again,
• 1:13:51
  we're jumping way ahead of the, the,
• 1:13:52
  the cart way before the horse,
• 1:13:54
  but if I'm B sport and I buy CrossFit,
• 1:13:57
  I am going to be the
• 1:13:58
  apparel sponsor for the
• 1:14:00
  rest of time that I own
• 1:14:02
  them for the games.
• 1:14:03
  If,
• 1:14:04
  if the games are something important to
• 1:14:06
  me,
• 1:14:08
  but I'm not going to do it in a year
• 1:14:09
  where I'm not going to give Burke,
• 1:14:11
  Brooke Berkshire, my money.
• 1:14:14
  On top of giving them all my
• 1:14:16
  money and sponsor this year's games.
• 1:14:25
  I mean, I see that a little bit,
• 1:14:27
  but also if you want your
• 1:14:29
  clothing brand to be like
• 1:14:30
  the yearly clothing brand,
• 1:14:31
  you need to keep that in
• 1:14:32
  front of people's eyes,
• 1:14:33
  not keep switching out what
• 1:14:34
  we're getting into random
• 1:14:36
  shit every year.
• 1:14:43
  that's a topic for a little bit later,
• 1:14:47
  which we don't have a lot of time.
• 1:14:48
  So we need to get to.
• 1:14:48
  Okay.
• 1:14:54
  Um, all right.
• 1:14:57
  So I think that's pretty
• 1:14:58
  much a fact down the, down the runway.
• 1:15:00
  There was a new road to
• 1:15:01
  games that came out this weekend,
• 1:15:03
  Danielle and Anika.
• 1:15:04
  I'll do a full review on that tomorrow.
• 1:15:07
  Um,
• 1:15:08
  it's, it's a lot of the same old,
• 1:15:10
  same old for me.
• 1:15:11
  Uh, but I'm,
• 1:15:12
  I won't get into the details
• 1:15:13
  until tomorrow.
• 1:15:14
  And I know Jamie hasn't seen it yet.
• 1:15:16
  Carolyn, did you get a look at it?
• 1:15:18
  Yeah, I watched it.
• 1:15:19
  Uh, I think Friday or Saturday,
• 1:15:21
  whenever it came out, um, it was okay.
• 1:15:23
  Like, yeah,
• 1:15:31
  I'm trying to remember what was
• 1:15:34
  memorable from it.
• 1:15:35
  Um,
• 1:15:36
  The most memorable thing for
• 1:15:37
  me was Danielle's dog
• 1:15:39
  peeing in the dog water
• 1:15:41
  dish at the dog park.
• 1:15:48
  And that tells you enough
• 1:15:50
  right there of what I
• 1:15:51
  thought of the rest of the video.
• 1:15:54
  Gooch was in the video?
• 1:15:56
  I think so.
• 1:16:00
  Interesting.
• 1:16:02
  CrossFit.
• 1:16:03
  No, it was not.
• 1:16:03
  It was neither new nor
• 1:16:05
  unique other than the dog
• 1:16:07
  pissing in every other dog's water bowl.
• 1:16:11
  That was new.
• 1:16:15
  Just Anika talking about her
• 1:16:17
  near misses like that.
• 1:16:19
  I remember from the beefed
• 1:16:20
  up to like have some drama with it.
• 1:16:23
  They could have showed some
• 1:16:24
  of that a little more like
• 1:16:26
  it just I would have dove
• 1:16:29
  deeper on the year.
• 1:16:30
  I think it's the submission
• 1:16:31
  didn't go through.
• 1:16:32
  Like what actually happened?
• 1:16:35
  Yeah.
• 1:16:36
  Like we've all been wanting
• 1:16:37
  to know what really happened.
• 1:16:44
  Yeah.
• 1:16:47
  So anyway.
• 1:16:48
  All right.
• 1:16:49
  Masters CrossFit Games Apparel.
• 1:16:51
  I know you two both probably know.
• 1:16:54
  um share some thoughts on
• 1:16:56
  this and so shoot I need to
• 1:17:01
  find that again there we go
• 1:17:13
  all right so this was a
• 1:17:15
  meme posted by woolly memeth
• 1:17:22
  The evolution of apparel for
• 1:17:24
  Masters athletes at the CrossFit Games.
• 1:17:27
  Does that sum up what you
• 1:17:28
  feel like it's been, Jamie,
• 1:17:29
  since you've been there
• 1:17:31
  more than just this year?
• 1:17:33
  Yes.
• 1:17:33
  Completely.
• 1:17:33
  Completely.
• 1:17:54
  What the athletes are receiving this year,
• 1:17:57
  the men are getting four shorts,
• 1:17:58
  two tanks, two tops, two t-shirts.
• 1:18:02
  Women are getting two shorts, two leggings,
• 1:18:05
  women's tank tops,
• 1:18:06
  and two unisex t-shirts.
• 1:18:13
  Thoughts on that for a four-day event?
• 1:18:19
  I mean, it's not really that much.
• 1:18:22
  My expectations have been
• 1:18:25
  low since the last few years.
• 1:18:29
  I feel like there's been
• 1:18:29
  less and less stuff kind of given, but.
• 1:18:38
  Jamie.
• 1:18:42
  You had a rift last year on this.
• 1:18:44
  Yeah.
• 1:18:46
  Is there another one in you
• 1:18:47
  or are you spent?
• 1:18:49
  I don't know.
• 1:18:54
  They could also be
• 1:18:55
  showing... I went to Jim
• 1:18:57
  Reapers to try to look at
• 1:18:58
  their apparel line,
• 1:19:00
  but I can't even begin to
• 1:19:02
  guess what... I think I
• 1:19:06
  know which tank top they're providing.
• 1:19:10
  I don't know which shorts it is.
• 1:19:12
  They could have told us.
• 1:19:14
  It's this short...
• 1:19:17
  in this color for one we
• 1:19:19
  have no idea the color
• 1:19:20
  scheme so if people do want
• 1:19:22
  to get on and buy like two
• 1:19:23
  more of the shorts well
• 1:19:25
  what if I buy the teal
• 1:19:26
  stuff and all of our color
• 1:19:28
  scheme is whatever other
• 1:19:30
  color and then I like I
• 1:19:32
  mean maybe I would want to
• 1:19:33
  buy more of the same stuff
• 1:19:34
  so I look like I fit in out
• 1:19:37
  there on the floor we've
• 1:19:41
  just gotten nothing
• 1:19:43
  Yeah.
• 1:19:45
  I saw that like sports bras aren't given,
• 1:19:49
  but you can wear your own
• 1:19:50
  as long as your logo is a
• 1:19:52
  certain size of it.
• 1:19:53
  It's like two and a half inches.
• 1:19:54
  Is that what it was?
• 1:19:57
  I'm assuming that like
• 1:19:58
  non-branded things you can wear,
• 1:20:00
  which works for me because
• 1:20:01
  most of my stuff is like
• 1:20:04
  stuff that I can hide a logo pretty well.
• 1:20:07
  Yeah.
• 1:20:08
  But like getting the kit is all is often,
• 1:20:11
  you know,
• 1:20:12
  the special thing about being a
• 1:20:13
  games athlete.
• 1:20:14
  So I wish it was a little
• 1:20:16
  bit more given to the
• 1:20:17
  athletes for the full weekend.
• 1:20:19
  Like clearly it's not enough
• 1:20:21
  for all the amount of
• 1:20:21
  events that we have.
• 1:20:23
  But at the same time,
• 1:20:24
  you get to still wear other things,
• 1:20:26
  which is at least good,
• 1:20:28
  because if you were stuck
• 1:20:29
  wearing only those things
• 1:20:30
  the whole weekend, like that would suck.
• 1:20:33
  Especially if the clothing
• 1:20:34
  isn't something that you normally wear.
• 1:20:36
  Like I'm a t-shirt girl,
• 1:20:37
  so I'll be wearing those two t-shirts.
• 1:20:40
  Halpin says the color scheme is black,
• 1:20:42
  white, gray, green.
• 1:20:44
  I'm sick of that too.
• 1:20:45
  Where was that information?
• 1:20:47
  Yeah.
• 1:20:48
  I mean, they need to get a little bit more,
• 1:20:52
  I don't know, brighter colors.
• 1:20:54
  Like they tried to do that
• 1:20:55
  neon yellow with Northern
• 1:20:57
  Spirit last year.
• 1:20:58
  Yeah.
• 1:21:00
  Yeah.
• 1:21:02
  where the, like the vibrant blues though,
• 1:21:04
  when the, the oranges and the, like,
• 1:21:07
  there's so many other cool colors.
• 1:21:11
  Um, I, I've had it here somewhere.
• 1:21:16
  Fergie said that, uh,
• 1:21:18
  masters mentioned where cargo shorts and,
• 1:21:21
  and give, be given sketchers later.
• 1:21:28
  Uh,
• 1:21:31
  So here's what I was thinking.
• 1:21:34
  They're missing the mark on
• 1:21:35
  this completely by making these kits.
• 1:21:38
  Everybody's the same.
• 1:21:40
  Carolyn likes a different
• 1:21:41
  short than Jamie likes,
• 1:21:43
  and nobody's going to be happy.
• 1:21:45
  What if they just said, okay,
• 1:21:47
  you have a voucher for this amount.
• 1:21:51
  You can go to our store.
• 1:21:52
  You can buy whatever you
• 1:21:53
  want to kit yourself out
• 1:21:55
  with this voucher.
• 1:21:57
  And if you want more than that,
• 1:21:58
  you can buy additional
• 1:21:59
  stuff at a discount.
• 1:22:02
  And then we will put your
• 1:22:03
  name and all that stuff on
• 1:22:05
  it and it'll be waiting for
• 1:22:06
  you at the games.
• 1:22:08
  And that way,
• 1:22:09
  Carolyn would be able to get
• 1:22:10
  what she likes.
• 1:22:11
  Jamie would be able to get what she likes.
• 1:22:13
  And then you could beef it
• 1:22:14
  up if you wanted to.
• 1:22:16
  But at least you'd have like
• 1:22:18
  X many dollars to like get
• 1:22:19
  what you your initial kit
• 1:22:22
  with the way you wanted it.
• 1:22:28
  I mean, I get what you're saying,
• 1:22:30
  and I believe at Legends, like,
• 1:22:33
  four years ago,
• 1:22:35
  it was something similar to that.
• 1:22:37
  There was, Viori was the sponsor,
• 1:22:40
  and you got to, like, click between...
• 1:22:44
  some options so you kind of
• 1:22:45
  created your kit when you
• 1:22:47
  sent in your thing and then
• 1:22:48
  that's what was made for
• 1:22:49
  you so if you wanted three
• 1:22:51
  pairs of the baggy like
• 1:22:52
  running type shorts as the
• 1:22:53
  ladies instead of like
• 1:22:55
  spandex shorts you could
• 1:22:55
  have picked more of those
• 1:22:57
  um but to carolyn's point
• 1:23:01
  like the kit showing up and
• 1:23:05
  getting that locker and
• 1:23:06
  having all that stuff is
• 1:23:08
  the excitement and
• 1:23:10
  to take that away and be like, well,
• 1:23:12
  here's a voucher,
• 1:23:13
  go pick out some stuff that
• 1:23:16
  ruins the experience.
• 1:23:17
  I mean,
• 1:23:18
  that was what I spent the last
• 1:23:20
  eight years trying to get.
• 1:23:22
  I quite honestly, I was like, I was,
• 1:23:26
  a little bit annoyed
• 1:23:28
  watching Ariel on Saban the
• 1:23:31
  other day because she
• 1:23:32
  started to go down this
• 1:23:33
  road where it seemed like
• 1:23:34
  she was talking about like,
• 1:23:35
  she doesn't know what the
• 1:23:36
  locker room is going to be like anymore.
• 1:23:37
  And I'm like,
• 1:23:38
  welcome to the freaking masters, dude.
• 1:23:40
  Like I, I,
• 1:23:42
  I like want to see you guys like
• 1:23:44
  lose out on all of this stuff too.
• 1:23:46
  Like it's all been stripped
• 1:23:48
  away from the masters.
• 1:23:49
  And the individuals can only
• 1:23:52
  just complain about getting
• 1:23:54
  less and less.
• 1:23:55
  Yeah, we get it.
• 1:24:03
  I knew the riff was coming.
• 1:24:08
  Just had to wait long enough.
• 1:24:09
  And Ken's kind of echoing
• 1:24:15
  what I was going to follow up with is,
• 1:24:18
  like it could still be a surprise.
• 1:24:20
  Like you're ordering it all ahead of time,
• 1:24:22
  right?
• 1:24:22
  What you kind of, what you prefer.
• 1:24:24
  Like you want booty shorts,
• 1:24:26
  you want leggings, you want,
• 1:24:28
  like you don't even,
• 1:24:29
  maybe you don't know the
• 1:24:30
  colors and you don't know the style,
• 1:24:32
  right?
• 1:24:32
  But you know,
• 1:24:33
  these are the cuts you want
• 1:24:36
  and you want this many of
• 1:24:37
  this many things.
• 1:24:39
  And so when you get there,
• 1:24:40
  your box is there,
• 1:24:40
  you open it up and it's
• 1:24:42
  still like a surprise to you.
• 1:24:47
  Yeah,
• 1:24:47
  I don't think it's a bad idea if
• 1:24:48
  we're going to go down this
• 1:24:49
  route where it's less and less.
• 1:24:52
  I guess if it's going to be this way, yeah,
• 1:24:55
  try to make people as happy
• 1:24:57
  as you can with what we're
• 1:24:59
  getting and let them pick
• 1:25:00
  from amongst some items.
• 1:25:04
  Yeah.
• 1:25:04
  Like, like you said, Scott,
• 1:25:05
  they could give like a, I don't know,
• 1:25:07
  you do a Google forms
• 1:25:08
  thingy and it's like,
• 1:25:09
  you get four pairs of shorts.
• 1:25:11
  Here are the styles.
• 1:25:12
  Do you want all four of that style?
• 1:25:14
  You know, three of that.
• 1:25:15
  And you can just pick that way.
• 1:25:17
  Like that would be cool.
• 1:25:18
  Again,
• 1:25:19
  I'm just happy that if the stuff
• 1:25:21
  isn't what you're comfortable with,
• 1:25:23
  that we have an option to
• 1:25:24
  wear other things.
• 1:25:26
  Like I I'm happy with that part.
• 1:25:27
  At least I'm not stuck
• 1:25:29
  wearing clothes that I
• 1:25:30
  don't feel comfortable in on the floor.
• 1:25:35
  yeah last year was crazy
• 1:25:36
  because it was such a small
• 1:25:37
  amount and then you had to
• 1:25:38
  wear their stuff on the
• 1:25:40
  floor all the time and
• 1:25:42
  people had to wash them so
• 1:25:43
  much that the logos were
• 1:25:45
  falling off of the clothes
• 1:25:48
  by the end of the weekend
• 1:25:49
  and what fun is that you
• 1:25:50
  just earned a trip to the
• 1:25:52
  games you're given this
• 1:25:54
  outfit and it's falling
• 1:25:56
  apart before you even
• 1:25:57
  finish the competition
• 1:26:04
  So I do think they are
• 1:26:05
  allowed to go to Jim
• 1:26:06
  Reapers and buy more at a discount.
• 1:26:12
  Yeah,
• 1:26:13
  that's what was a little confusing is
• 1:26:14
  like we got in our email
• 1:26:15
  that we get twenty percent off.
• 1:26:17
  But if you just go to Jim
• 1:26:19
  Reapers website as the general public,
• 1:26:22
  it's fifty forty nine
• 1:26:24
  dollars off one hundred fifty or more.
• 1:26:26
  So it's better to just go on
• 1:26:28
  right now and just buy off
• 1:26:29
  of their website without
• 1:26:30
  even putting in the master's code.
• 1:26:33
  yeah we don't get it for I
• 1:26:34
  mean we don't get the
• 1:26:35
  extras for free yeah you
• 1:26:38
  get the first four items
• 1:26:42
  for free four shirts four
• 1:26:45
  bottoms no sports bras what
• 1:26:47
  do you think the price
• 1:26:51
  purse is going to be per
• 1:26:52
  division they haven't
• 1:26:54
  announced anything on that
• 1:26:55
  like they've announced only
• 1:26:56
  like through the open but
• 1:26:57
  not how it's distributed
• 1:27:00
  right I know we could figure
• 1:27:01
  it out if we if I just
• 1:27:03
  would do the math I just
• 1:27:04
  haven't had time to sit
• 1:27:05
  down and do that yeah we
• 1:27:08
  should do that we should we
• 1:27:09
  should have holly work on
• 1:27:12
  that all right I'll I'll
• 1:27:13
  text her tomorrow and see
• 1:27:14
  if she she can run the
• 1:27:15
  numbers and see because my
• 1:27:17
  guesses are just going to
• 1:27:18
  overlay last year's formula
• 1:27:21
  with this year's money yeah
• 1:27:29
  Yeah, Judy, that was my only question.
• 1:27:31
  Like,
• 1:27:32
  could our twenty step twenty percent
• 1:27:34
  off stack on that promotion that's going?
• 1:27:36
  I don't know.
• 1:27:37
  See,
• 1:27:37
  but what Judy's doing is she's
• 1:27:39
  applying Kohl's cash logic
• 1:27:41
  to discounts through a CrossFit company.
• 1:27:45
  Because I know my wife is like, well,
• 1:27:47
  I got a twenty percent off
• 1:27:48
  and I've got twenty dollars
• 1:27:50
  in Kohl's cash.
• 1:27:51
  And I, you know,
• 1:27:52
  and if I use my credit card,
• 1:27:53
  I get an additional.
• 1:27:54
  And then she'll come over.
• 1:27:56
  I got all these clothes for
• 1:27:57
  a dollar ninety nine.
• 1:27:58
  Yeah.
• 1:28:00
  how come your credit card
• 1:28:01
  statement keeps going up
• 1:28:09
  all right uh pool boy says
• 1:28:10
  judy and I are asian we can
• 1:28:11
  do the math uh old navy
• 1:28:16
  bucks they run crazy stuff
• 1:28:20
  too denise I got twenty
• 1:28:24
  dollars cools cash sitting on my fridge
• 1:28:28
  My wife has more Kohl's cash
• 1:28:29
  in her wallet than regular
• 1:28:30
  cash at all times.
• 1:28:32
  I swear.
• 1:28:40
  I bet Scott's wife still has
• 1:28:41
  Bed Bath & Beyond coupons.
• 1:28:43
  Don't you know it?
• 1:28:47
  And she talks him into
• 1:28:48
  taking the expired ones
• 1:28:49
  from two thousand nineteen.
• 1:28:50
  Yeah.
• 1:28:55
  Uh, okay.
• 1:28:58
  All right.
• 1:28:58
  So that is the master's closed debate.
• 1:29:05
  We're going to skip ask
• 1:29:07
  Carolyn and Jamie questions
• 1:29:08
  cause we are late.
• 1:29:10
  Um,
• 1:29:11
  I was going to talk about the WFP
• 1:29:13
  qualifiers, uh,
• 1:29:17
  the big thing that I saw was
• 1:29:18
  the women seemed to be a
• 1:29:19
  pretty stacked field that a
• 1:29:21
  lot of people signed up and
• 1:29:23
  did the qualifier on the men's side, man,
• 1:29:27
  hard time filling even the
• 1:29:29
  next ten for the pro division.
• 1:29:33
  So I don't know what's
• 1:29:34
  happening on that side,
• 1:29:36
  but I just found that as a unique trend.
• 1:29:40
  Like if you're, if you're one of the,
• 1:29:44
  if you're if you're one of
• 1:29:44
  the pro male athletes
• 1:29:46
  you're probably happy that
• 1:29:47
  not that many qualified
• 1:29:49
  twice in a row to get some
• 1:29:50
  points on you because it
• 1:29:51
  almost not almost
• 1:29:53
  guarantees you for the
• 1:29:54
  following because the last
• 1:29:55
  is double points but you
• 1:29:57
  get a better shot yeah
• 1:30:01
  because on the female
• 1:30:01
  there's quite a bit I think
• 1:30:03
  at least almost half of
• 1:30:04
  them I remember them being
• 1:30:05
  in the pro or at least have
• 1:30:06
  points already accumulated
• 1:30:08
  from the challenger division
• 1:30:13
  Yeah, so at AI,
• 1:30:16
  more people did
• 1:30:17
  Hiller-Bajent workout than
• 1:30:18
  WFP qualifiers.
• 1:30:19
  Well, to be fair,
• 1:30:21
  the Hiller-Bajent workout was one workout,
• 1:30:24
  ten minutes long.
• 1:30:25
  You're done in ten minutes
• 1:30:26
  whether you finish or not.
• 1:30:28
  The WFP qualifiers were two
• 1:30:30
  chippers and a third event, way harder.
• 1:30:34
  And ask my partner, Jamie,
• 1:30:36
  who tried to do it hungover.
• 1:30:37
  Yeah, not recommended.
• 1:30:38
  Yeah.
• 1:30:40
  It was over fourth of July weekend.
• 1:30:42
  What a terrible time to do the qualifiers.
• 1:30:45
  Yeah.
• 1:30:46
  I don't think they're
• 1:30:46
  comparable just because one
• 1:30:48
  of them is more like
• 1:30:49
  accessible to everyone.
• 1:30:50
  And the other one is kind of
• 1:30:51
  geared towards us,
• 1:30:52
  like the pro athletes challenger group.
• 1:30:55
  So I think that's different in that way.
• 1:30:58
  I mean, if I'm Hiller,
• 1:30:59
  I'm going to brag about it
• 1:31:01
  because more people signed
• 1:31:02
  up for my event than theirs.
• 1:31:04
  I don't blame them for doing that,
• 1:31:05
  but realistically it's one,
• 1:31:07
  ten minute event that even
• 1:31:09
  I could have done.
• 1:31:12
  And I couldn't do those WFP
• 1:31:13
  qualifiers at all.
• 1:31:19
  So, yeah.
• 1:31:22
  Then...
• 1:31:24
  Last thing is the CrossFit
• 1:31:25
  store is advertising stuff again.
• 1:31:28
  My question is,
• 1:31:31
  are they even relevant anymore?
• 1:31:34
  I have been complaining for
• 1:31:35
  years that the CrossFit
• 1:31:36
  store only sells stuff that says CrossFit,
• 1:31:39
  and we've had that option since
• 1:31:43
  It would be really nice if
• 1:31:44
  they came up with maybe,
• 1:31:47
  I know this has been the
• 1:31:48
  theme of the night,
• 1:31:49
  a new creative marketing
• 1:31:50
  plan or a new creative
• 1:31:53
  design on a shirt that, I mean, come on.
• 1:32:00
  Now, the list of it,
• 1:32:01
  like Jamie brought up in
• 1:32:02
  our text during this week,
• 1:32:03
  the list of the girls is cool.
• 1:32:06
  The pyramid is cool.
• 1:32:08
  But I've had that option for
• 1:32:11
  ten years now.
• 1:32:14
  I just want something new.
• 1:32:16
  Maybe they're trying to get
• 1:32:17
  rid of some clothes before
• 1:32:18
  the selling of the company
• 1:32:20
  and new designs.
• 1:32:24
  I've been waiting for new
• 1:32:25
  designs for fifteen years, Carolyn.
• 1:32:28
  And there wasn't a sale of the company.
• 1:32:35
  Bring back Forging Elite
• 1:32:36
  Fitness and Pukie shirts.
• 1:32:38
  If you brought back Pukie shirts,
• 1:32:40
  they would sell like crazy.
• 1:32:47
  athena pointed out there's
• 1:32:48
  no women's shirt that isn't
• 1:32:49
  a crop top I hate that so
• 1:32:52
  much I didn't even realize
• 1:32:53
  that I hate how every time
• 1:32:58
  there's a competition it's
• 1:32:59
  always crop tops like I
• 1:33:01
  hate crop tops on me like
• 1:33:02
  my body just looks weird
• 1:33:03
  and I don't feel
• 1:33:04
  comfortable in it I hate
• 1:33:05
  them it's not for me but I
• 1:33:07
  know other people like it
• 1:33:08
  but I just wish that there
• 1:33:08
  was always another option for the females
• 1:33:11
  If the new owners come in
• 1:33:13
  and say that we're going to
• 1:33:14
  reach an X number of
• 1:33:15
  CrossFitters by a certain date,
• 1:33:17
  I'm going to throw up in my mouth.
• 1:33:22
  And that's just in response to Ken saying,
• 1:33:24
  but there's thirty million
• 1:33:25
  new CrossFitters that don't
• 1:33:26
  know if they are new or not.
• 1:33:39
  Anyway.
• 1:33:39
  All right.
• 1:33:41
  So that is pretty much
• 1:33:42
  everything this week.
• 1:33:45
  Again, another slow week.
• 1:33:47
  Next week,
• 1:33:48

• 1:33:54
  show because I'm going to
• 1:33:56
  that concert or we'll move
• 1:33:58
  to Monday night, maybe.
• 1:34:01
  But I know that it's getting
• 1:34:03
  really close to games time.
• 1:34:05

• 1:34:06
