  What's going on, everybody?
• 0:32
  Welcome to lunch with the Clydesdale.
• 0:36
  It's lunch break,
• 0:37
  hanging out with my friends.
• 0:39
  What's going on, Corey?
• 0:41
  Yeah, coming to hang out today.
• 0:43
  Good to talk about a few things.
• 0:46
  If you weren't with us
• 0:47
  yesterday on the roundtable,
• 0:48
  which a lot of you were,
• 0:49
  which was awesome.
• 0:52
  Yeah,
• 0:52
  we got word yesterday that they may
• 0:55
  be eliminating my unit or
• 0:57
  merging my unit in with somebody else.
• 1:00
  And so...
• 1:02
  Yeah,
• 1:03
  I need these lunch breaks these days.
• 1:05
  I've got to figure out what's going on.
• 1:10
  Yesterday was my twenty two
• 1:12
  year anniversary with the state of Ohio.
• 1:16
  And I'm just trying to
• 1:17
  figure out how many more
• 1:19
  years to make that a viable
• 1:21
  retirement option.
• 1:26
  So I can just do what I love
• 1:27
  to do instead of what I have to do.
• 1:31
  what's going on sarah and
• 1:32
  craig good you good that
• 1:33
  you can be here today so um
• 1:38
  yeah I know we all have
• 1:40
  that work work life balance
• 1:42
  that we try to figure out
• 1:43
  and um and I don't mind my
• 1:47
  job I just don't love my
• 1:48
  job anymore and it's just
• 1:50
  not a high priority in my
• 1:51
  life and so uh ever since
• 1:54
  it's happened it seems like
• 1:56
  people are trying to chip
• 1:56
  away at this thing um
• 2:01
  I really am kind of in a
• 2:02
  position now where I'm just
• 2:03
  trying to do my job to the
• 2:05
  best of my ability and get to the end.
• 2:08
  I'm not trying to advance or
• 2:09
  anything like that.
• 2:11
  I played those games for
• 2:12
  years with really no true
• 2:16
  satisfaction in all that.
• 2:19
  So, yeah.
• 2:21
  Anyway, that's just my little diatribe.
• 2:25
  My wife got her annual review today.
• 2:28
  She was surprised by some comments on it.
• 2:31
  And you should never be
• 2:34
  surprised on an annual review.
• 2:37
  that is a such a pet peeve
• 2:40
  of mine if you were
• 2:42
  surprised on an annual
• 2:43
  review then your manager is
• 2:45
  not doing what he's
• 2:46
  supposed to be doing or
• 2:47
  she's not supposed to be
• 2:48
  not doing what she's
• 2:48
  supposed to be doing you
• 2:50
  should know how you're
• 2:51
  doing throughout the year
• 2:53
  where the annual review is
• 2:54
  just a check-in and
• 2:56
  documented on paper but um so yeah
• 3:04
  Sarah says,
• 3:04
  hang in there after twenty years.
• 3:06
  I wouldn't want to start all
• 3:07
  over again personally.
• 3:10
  Yeah,
• 3:10
  I do not want to start all over again.
• 3:12
  I'm twenty two years in.
• 3:14
  I'm ready to be done.
• 3:17
  And it was like a month ago.
• 3:19
  I actually do qualify for a
• 3:21
  retirement right now with
• 3:23
  the state of Ohio.
• 3:24
  It's just it's about half of
• 3:26
  what I make today.
• 3:30
  So there is something there.
• 3:32
  If I wanted to like walk out the door,
• 3:34
  I would get a check the rest of my life,
• 3:36
  but I would need to then go
• 3:38
  back to work somewhere else
• 3:39
  and supplement it.
• 3:41
  So just trying to get as
• 3:44
  tick off as many months,
• 3:46
  years as I can so that we
• 3:48
  can make it a more viable option.
• 3:54
  and cat poop today uh so I'm
• 3:57
  guessing she learned can
• 3:59
  she wipe with a
• 4:00
  non-dominant hand yeah
• 4:03
  can't wait for that update
• 4:08
  just glad her surgery went
• 4:09
  well and everything's going
• 4:11
  well in her her life and
• 4:14
  and uh pooping is a good
• 4:15
  thing so glad that's
• 4:17
  happening too so the other
• 4:20
  thing I wanted to talk
• 4:21
  about is yesterday right
• 4:22
  after our round table
• 4:24
  Uh,
• 4:24
  it was actually during the round table.
• 4:25
  I got the notification that, uh,
• 4:27
  the behind the scenes
• 4:28
  episode two went up on Savan's channel.
• 4:33
  And I know they're only up
• 4:34
  for like a few hours now at a time.
• 4:36
  Uh, and you have to go grab them.
• 4:38
  Watched it immediately after
• 4:40
  the round table yesterday.
• 4:42
  It was, it was really good.
• 4:46
  If you didn't catch it and
• 4:47
  he does put it up for a couple more hours,
• 4:50
  you need to go find it.
• 4:52
  Um,
• 4:55
  There's a couple things I
• 4:56
  wanted to point out.
• 4:59
  One, it's typical behind the scenes,
• 5:02
  especially the night before event one,
• 5:05
  they're at an athlete briefing.
• 5:07
  What I found interesting in that,
• 5:08
  in recording of this athlete briefing,
• 5:13
  there's actually an expert
• 5:15
  talking about body
• 5:17
  temperature and hydration
• 5:19
  before the night before event one.
• 5:24
  That was a little piece that
• 5:27
  I didn't know happened.
• 5:29
  Would have been good to know
• 5:32
  right after the tragic events.
• 5:34
  But I've also sat in those
• 5:36
  athlete briefings.
• 5:38
  Kat used to make me go to
• 5:39
  those all the time.
• 5:41
  And a lot of times the
• 5:45
  athletes don't pay attention.
• 5:49
  at all.
• 5:51
  But I found it very
• 5:52
  interesting that they
• 5:53
  actually had an expert
• 5:54
  talking about keeping your
• 5:56
  body at its normal temp for
• 5:57
  as long as possible,
• 5:59
  and tricks to do that,
• 6:01
  as well as to be aware of
• 6:03
  that in your race,
• 6:05
  if you need to like say some things.
• 6:11
  The other part is
• 6:14
  get you get more words from
• 6:16
  Lazar the morning of the
• 6:17
  incident before he goes
• 6:19
  into the water that is
• 6:21
  pretty eerie some of the
• 6:24
  directions some of the
• 6:28
  directions that were given
• 6:30
  to the athletes right
• 6:32
  before that was a little bit ominous
• 6:37
  and then it talks about the
• 6:39
  event or it shows the event
• 6:42
  the first couple people
• 6:42
  come across and then as
• 6:44
  panic ensues things like that um and then
• 6:49
  looking at the proven coaches, uh,
• 6:52
  they have footage of Luca
• 6:53
  looking into the water.
• 6:55
  Um,
• 6:56
  it's really kind of eerie to relive that,
• 6:59
  but at the very end, uh,
• 7:02
  there is a beautiful tribute to Lazar,
• 7:05
  a beautiful, beautiful tribute to him, um,
• 7:10
  where they took
• 7:11
  clips of footage from like
• 7:12
  all the behind the scenes
• 7:14
  and different things
• 7:15
  they've done with Lazar and
• 7:17
  put them together.
• 7:18
  It was really, really well done.
• 7:21
  I actually reached out to
• 7:22
  Savan to tell him what I thought of that.
• 7:26
  Um, and he gave it up to, uh, Patrick Rios,
• 7:30
  who's actually the person
• 7:31
  who put that together for the, um,
• 7:37
  who put that together for
• 7:38
  this behind the scenes.
• 7:40
  And it was so well done.
• 7:42
  So well done.
• 7:43
  So kudos to Patrick Rios.
• 7:45
  I wanted to give a shout out
• 7:46
  to him for that.
• 7:47
  It was really well done.
• 7:49
  I love the words that they
• 7:50
  put up about the smiles, the passion,
• 7:54
  the fire.
• 7:55
  All of that was very
• 7:58
  descriptive of Lazar and
• 8:02
  really tells his story.
• 8:04
  And the footage was awesome
• 8:05
  and really well done.
• 8:07
  So huge,
• 8:08
  huge shout out to Patrick Rios for
• 8:10
  putting that together.
• 8:11
  Huge shout out to Savan for
• 8:14
  giving him the platform to
• 8:15
  do so because it was great.
• 8:18
  Simply great.
• 8:23
  Yeah, John Young took it on the chin.
• 8:26
  One of the last words from
• 8:27
  Lazar was a parting shot at John Young.
• 8:29
  Yeah.
• 8:32
  What's up, Wad Zombie Man?
• 8:33
  Miss you, brother.
• 8:35
  Miss you.
• 8:35
  It was simple and perfect.
• 8:36
  Very well said.
• 8:38
  Very well said.
• 8:40
  So, yeah, if it pops up again,
• 8:45
  make sure you hop on and watch it.
• 8:48
  I know Sarah said down here
• 8:50
  the membership is too expensive for me.
• 8:52
  Unfortunately, the exchange rate sucks.
• 8:55
  Yeah.
• 8:55
  I,
• 8:55
  I don't know anything about the J the
• 8:57
  exchange rate,
• 8:58
  but I'll tell you is I
• 8:58
  wrestled with the cost.
• 9:00
  I did not sign up for the
• 9:01
  membership last year.
• 9:03
  Immediately.
• 9:03
  It took some thought, but then I thought,
• 9:06
  man, I, I get so much free.
• 9:09
  I get so much free
• 9:10
  entertainment from people
• 9:12
  that put out content.
• 9:14
  Um,
• 9:16
  And I pay to go to the movies.
• 9:18
  I pay to buy stupid stuff.
• 9:23
  And if I can support a
• 9:24
  content creator in the
• 9:25
  space with that money and
• 9:28
  pay for something that I
• 9:29
  actually enjoy watching,
• 9:31
  that's how I kind of
• 9:33
  wrestled with it in my head.
• 9:35
  And so I looked at it as
• 9:36
  like a trip to the movies.
• 9:39
  So,
• 9:41
  because if my wife and I go to the movies,
• 9:44
  it's like twenty five,
• 9:45
  thirty bucks to go see a two hour movie.
• 9:50
  And that membership allowed
• 9:51
  me to watch a lot of the
• 9:52
  behind the scenes and stuff
• 9:54
  that I really enjoy watching.
• 9:55
  And it supports people in the space.
• 9:58
  And that's why I did it.
• 10:01
  So that was my, um,
• 10:03
  that was my thought in the,
• 10:05
  and it doesn't,
• 10:06
  I'm not holding anybody else to that.
• 10:08
  That's just how I rationalized in my head.
• 10:10
  And I was not one that just
• 10:12
  paid immediately when it was available.
• 10:15
  I had to think it out.
• 10:16
  I had to make it justified in my head.
• 10:19
  And, uh,
• 10:24
  uh grant yeah it I think
• 10:26
  he's only putting these up
• 10:27
  for like a couple hours and
• 10:29
  then I know episode one was
• 10:31
  up at two different points
• 10:33
  uh make sure you hit the
• 10:34
  notifier so um so that when
• 10:38
  they pop it up maybe for a
• 10:39
  second time uh you'll get a
• 10:42
  a notify notification to go
• 10:44
  kind of check it out real quick um
• 10:48
  I think with some of the
• 10:49
  content in this this one
• 10:51
  was going to be the one
• 10:51
  that was going to get
• 10:52
  pulled the fastest um but
• 10:57
  yeah yeah I literally
• 11:00
  literally watched it like
• 11:03
  fifteen minutes after the
• 11:04
  notifier came out um so
• 11:08
  yeah I'm sure people are
• 11:09
  gonna ask for it to be put
• 11:10
  up one more time hopefully
• 11:12
  that happens again it
• 11:13
  happened with episode one
• 11:14
  it went up a second time um
• 11:16
  but we'll see what we'll
• 11:17
  see what happens here so so
• 11:25
  there's that huge shout out
• 11:27
  to them and then um I want
• 11:29
  to talk about the announcement yesterday
• 11:33
  Twenty five point two is
• 11:35
  twenty two point three.
• 11:39
  A lot of people kind of knew
• 11:40
  that ahead of time.
• 11:42
  How do we feel about leaks?
• 11:44
  Like it seems to be like
• 11:46
  every year we're going to get a leak,
• 11:49
  at least one, if not more.
• 11:53
  I'm not a fan of it.
• 11:54
  I'm not a fan of it at all.
• 11:55
  I think that part of the fun
• 11:57
  for me from my first ever
• 11:59
  open in twenty thirteen
• 12:01
  till now has been the
• 12:03
  tension and the excitement
• 12:04
  as to what may or may not get announced.
• 12:07
  And and I and I miss that.
• 12:11
  When everybody told me what
• 12:12
  this was going to be four days ago,
• 12:16
  that bummed me out.
• 12:17
  I like to watch the
• 12:19
  announcement to see what it is.
• 12:20
  I like that tension.
• 12:22
  I like the excitement.
• 12:25
  But I think that Andrew
• 12:27
  Nails It seems to be the norm now.
• 12:31
  I've heard two different
• 12:34
  stories that are computer glitch related.
• 12:38
  but I've heard also that
• 12:39
  people knew about it before
• 12:40
  the computer glitch.
• 12:42
  So I'm, I don't even know.
• 12:45
  I think it's just people,
• 12:49
  people want to ruin the surprise.
• 12:54
  Um, yeah,
• 12:56
  I've heard it was on the website
• 12:58
  as a weight, uh, like a,
• 13:01
  a lesson on how to scale a workout.
• 13:04
  Um,
• 13:05
  And then I've heard that
• 13:06
  people putting in their
• 13:07
  scores for twenty five point one,
• 13:11
  actually twenty five point two popped up.
• 13:14
  So they got to see it when
• 13:15
  they were putting in their scores.
• 13:18
  But I've also heard that
• 13:19
  people even knew what it
• 13:20
  was before those two instances.
• 13:23
  So I but I don't have anything confirmed.
• 13:26
  I don't have anything confirmed.
• 13:28
  It's just those are the
• 13:29
  things that I've heard.
• 13:30
  I'm sure you guys have heard
• 13:31
  things as well.
• 13:37
  Andrew says people like to be in the know.
• 13:40
  It makes them feel more
• 13:40
  important when they have
• 13:42
  information like that.
• 13:44
  Yeah.
• 13:46
  It's like we talked about last Sunday.
• 13:49
  Like,
• 13:49
  do you like your shows all at once so
• 13:52
  you can binge them from
• 13:53
  episode one to episode twelve?
• 13:55
  Or do you like them released
• 13:57
  once a week so you kind of
• 13:58
  get to savor it and bring it out?
• 14:00
  And I am one that likes it
• 14:01
  released once a week.
• 14:04
  where I can savor the show over time,
• 14:06
  talk about it, build up excitement.
• 14:09
  That's why I like the Taylor
• 14:11
  Sheridan stuff that comes
• 14:12
  out once a week.
• 14:13
  I like The Pit.
• 14:14
  I like Reacher.
• 14:15
  Those come out once a week.
• 14:17
  I can build up excitement
• 14:18
  for those episodes.
• 14:21
  That's what I like about the
• 14:22
  CrossFit Open.
• 14:24
  There's that tension.
• 14:26
  Like in two thousand thirteen,
• 14:27
  when it was me and three of
• 14:29
  my buddies signed up,
• 14:30
  we had no idea what we're
• 14:31
  getting ourselves into.
• 14:33
  We used to pile into this
• 14:34
  basement right here,
• 14:36
  pull up the computer and we
• 14:37
  would sit and wait with
• 14:38
  anticipation over what it
• 14:40
  was as a group every week.
• 14:42
  And that's the five week open back then.
• 14:45
  And there was no scaled.
• 14:46
  It was only RX.
• 14:47
  So whatever you got,
• 14:48
  you got and you had to make.
• 14:50
  Take a shot at it.
• 14:52
  And I love that.
• 14:54
  I loved every bit of that.
• 14:55
  And so when these things leak out,
• 15:01
  it takes away some of the
• 15:02
  fun for me in the open announcement.
• 15:07
  So let's talk about the open
• 15:08
  announcement a little bit.
• 15:11
  I think we were fooling
• 15:12
  ourselves if we thought it
• 15:12
  would live up to the same
• 15:14
  amount of hype as mayhem
• 15:16
  with rich ripping off the
• 15:18
  pants and taking the floor.
• 15:21
  But I thought they did a really good job.
• 15:24
  I thought the crowd was into it.
• 15:26
  They were excited.
• 15:28
  I'm really trying to lean
• 15:30
  into what we're giving the
• 15:32
  community through this now.
• 15:35
  And the community at that affiliate,
• 15:37
  they were on fire.
• 15:40
  It's CrossFit.
• 15:41
  It's something about fire.
• 15:43
  I'm trying to remember.
• 15:45
  Anyway, the crowd was loud.
• 15:50
  You could hear them throughout.
• 15:53
  It was awesome.
• 15:57
  Yeah.
• 16:01
  How many of the CrossFit
• 16:02
  nerds know about the leaks, though?
• 16:03
  Ninety-nine percent of
• 16:04
  people in gyms are probably
• 16:05
  still surprised.
• 16:06
  All right.
• 16:08
  Good point, Sarah.
• 16:10
  Stop using logic.
• 16:13
  It takes away my excitement.
• 16:15
  It's all about me.
• 16:17
  Now, you're probably right.
• 16:19
  There's probably a ton of
• 16:19
  people out there.
• 16:20
  I know that in my old gym, like,
• 16:24
  I bet you people didn't
• 16:25
  even know the workout until
• 16:26
  they walked in on a Saturday to do it.
• 16:31
  you're probably right
• 16:32
  there's probably they're
• 16:33
  not even paying attention
• 16:34
  and have no idea um
• 16:40
  but so for the for so so for
• 16:42
  this announcement it was
• 16:44
  really really cool uh to
• 16:46
  see the crowd and how loud
• 16:47
  they were I liked how they
• 16:49
  featured um uh the barbell
• 16:53
  saves I think is what it's
• 16:54
  called um Tammy Saunders
• 16:57
  runs it I've actually had
• 16:59
  her on my show um she was
• 17:01
  there presenting um
• 17:05
  on the right there was the
• 17:06
  guy on the left she was on
• 17:07
  the right she talks about
• 17:09
  it a little bit and it is
• 17:10
  for people who are going
• 17:11
  through recovery if you are
• 17:13
  forty eight hours sober you
• 17:15
  can come to the gym and
• 17:16
  work out for free um and
• 17:19
  I'm glad that they
• 17:19
  highlighted I thought it
• 17:20
  was a really cool way to do
• 17:22
  that um tammy was also a
• 17:24
  masters athlete um she's
• 17:26
  coached by bill grundler
• 17:30
  And we talked about that
• 17:31
  when she was on the show.
• 17:33
  Um,
• 17:33
  but she was a big player in my behind
• 17:36
  the scenes.
• 17:37
  She's probably in three episodes,
• 17:39
  maybe four.
• 17:41
  Um, and she's just,
• 17:43
  she's just this bright
• 17:44
  light whenever you're around her.
• 17:46
  And she went through her own recovery.
• 17:48
  And so she's paying it
• 17:49
  forward by doing this
• 17:50
  barbell saves program.
• 17:51
  And I'm so glad that they shared that, um,
• 17:55
  on the broadcast because
• 17:57
  it's an awesome program.
• 17:59
  Um,
• 18:02
  And so, and Craig said,
• 18:03
  there's a lot of people in
• 18:04
  recovery in her area.
• 18:07
  Yeah.
• 18:08
  Arizona.
• 18:10
  Yeah.
• 18:12
  And she's doing great work there.
• 18:14
  Um, so that's awesome.
• 18:16
  And she's a, she's a phenomenal athlete.
• 18:18
  I mean, heck she, I mean,
• 18:19
  her coach is Bill Grundler.
• 18:21
  He's not going to take on some chump.
• 18:23
  Um, so she's, she's awesome.
• 18:28
  Uh,
• 18:28
  so that was cool for me to see her do
• 18:30
  that.
• 18:31
  Then we go to, um, Emily and Sydney.
• 18:34
  And when I saw the workout released,
• 18:37
  I was like, man,
• 18:37
  this is Emily in the bag
• 18:39
  all day long and twice on Sunday.
• 18:42
  But I gotta say Sydney
• 18:45
  really impressed me with
• 18:47
  her improvement in her
• 18:48
  upper body pooling.
• 18:50
  Um,
• 18:54
  She looked really good.
• 18:55
  And to take like a full
• 18:57
  minute off of her time.
• 19:06
  To take a full minute off of
• 19:07
  her time from a couple
• 19:09
  years ago was really, really cool to see.
• 19:15
  um she only lost to emily by
• 19:17
  like what ten seconds ten
• 19:18
  fifteen seconds um uh which
• 19:21
  I didn't think she had a
• 19:22
  shot uh um yeah sorry about
• 19:28
  that cough uh another realm
• 19:31
  he asked what's for lunch
• 19:32
  uh and uh I will not have
• 19:34
  what he's having no no I
• 19:37
  mean there's something in
• 19:38
  my basement right now that
• 19:40
  in the winter time when
• 19:41
  it's cold down here it just
• 19:43
  like catches my throat weird
• 19:45
  Um,
• 19:46
  so I have a lozenge in trying to avoid
• 19:48
  that,
• 19:49
  but I took a deep breath and it
• 19:50
  caught me.
• 19:53
  Ah, so, uh, but yeah, Sydney did great.
• 19:57
  Um,
• 19:59
  Gosh,
• 19:59
  I met Sydney when she first made
• 20:02
  semifinals.
• 20:04
  Kat got her on the show.
• 20:06
  We did her first ever
• 20:07
  podcast here when she
• 20:11
  was... That was been like, right?
• 20:15
  Maybe,
• 20:18
  that's when she was at the
• 20:19
  west coast classic doing
• 20:20
  really well until muscle
• 20:22
  ups came up muscle ups came
• 20:24
  up she took dead last and
• 20:27
  then fell down and that
• 20:28
  seems to seem to be her mo
• 20:30
  um for the last couple years
• 20:33
  So then the fact that she
• 20:36
  has something with bar
• 20:38
  muscle-ups made such a
• 20:40
  dramatic change in
• 20:41
  decreasing her time by a
• 20:42
  minute is really cool to see from her.
• 20:45
  And Emily was just rock steady as always,
• 20:49
  which was really cool to see.
• 20:53
  Kenneth asks,
• 20:54
  how come Sydney got two years
• 20:55
  straight of open announcement spots?
• 20:58
  Can't answer that.
• 21:01
  Can't answer that.
• 21:02
  I don't know how.
• 21:04
  um you'd have to ask dave
• 21:08
  and the games team how that
• 21:10
  happened um I know it is a
• 21:12
  very uh it's very
• 21:18
  meaningful to the athletes
• 21:19
  to get picked for those um
• 21:22
  I think that it proven last year,
• 21:24
  she was a last minute
• 21:25
  replacement for Tia.
• 21:28
  So she was not intended to
• 21:29
  be the athlete at proven last year.
• 21:32
  It was supposed to be Ariel
• 21:33
  and Tia as the fittest moms.
• 21:36
  And I think a day or two
• 21:37
  before the announcement,
• 21:39
  Tia kind of backed off
• 21:41
  because of her wrist injury.
• 21:43
  And then they had the other
• 21:45
  proven athletes jump in,
• 21:47
  which included Sydney and,
• 21:49
  It was Sydney, um,
• 21:52
  Maddie sturt and Jay crouch.
• 21:55
  Maybe, maybe Roman.
• 21:59
  Yeah.
• 22:00
  Roman came over from mayhem.
• 22:01
  So it was Roman and Jay crouch.
• 22:03
  I think.
• 22:05
  Yeah.
• 22:06
  And then Sydney and, uh, Ariel.
• 22:10
  So Romans had two in a row too,
• 22:13
  but I really do think it's
• 22:14
  because they were last
• 22:15
  minute replacements last year.
• 22:16
  Cause it was supposed to be,
• 22:18
  it was supposed to be Tia
• 22:20
  and Ariel and Tia had to pull back.
• 22:24
  So they just grabbed a bunch
• 22:25
  of people to come in and
• 22:27
  fill in last minute.
• 22:28
  So that's probably,
• 22:30
  probably why Roman and
• 22:33
  Sydney got two years in a row.
• 22:34
  Cause they weren't actually
• 22:36
  the people picked last year.
• 22:40
  just trying to figure it out
• 22:41
  in my own head.
• 22:42
  I don't know.
• 22:42
  I could be just guessing.
• 22:45
  I am just guessing.
• 22:46
  Um, but that's,
• 22:47
  that was how I would reason
• 22:49
  it maybe a little bit.
• 22:52
  And I think it's going to be a weird year.
• 22:54
  It was a weird year coming
• 22:55
  in cause there was a group
• 22:56
  of people that we didn't
• 22:57
  know if they were signing up or not.
• 23:00
  Um,
• 23:01
  so that probably made it hard for them
• 23:03
  to schedule these as well.
• 23:09
  Yes,
• 23:09
  I believe Roman got two years in a row
• 23:11
  to now back in the day like
• 23:15
  Rich did one I think every
• 23:16
  year for a while that you
• 23:18
  so the like only getting
• 23:20
  one every so often thing is
• 23:22
  kind of a newer thing.
• 23:23
  Back in the day.
• 23:26
  The champions were used a lot.
• 23:32
  So
• 23:34
  There's that.
• 23:36
  If you guys have any
• 23:37
  thoughts about the announcement,
• 23:39
  I thought they did a good job.
• 23:42
  It didn't live up to that
• 23:43
  hype of the first week,
• 23:46
  and I don't think anything could have.
• 23:49
  but I think they did a good
• 23:50
  job and it was nice that
• 23:52
  they shared the mic around.
• 23:54
  Um, they, they did it with excitement.
• 23:56
  It wasn't like, uh,
• 23:58
  like reading from a note card.
• 24:00
  Um, they actually brought the hype.
• 24:02
  I thought that was good.
• 24:04
  Um,
• 24:04
  so I think we're heading in the right
• 24:05
  direction.
• 24:07
  Uh, and then next week,
• 24:09
  I think just because of the
• 24:11
  competitors and the, um,
• 24:15
  the foundation of the
• 24:17
  punishments and the trash
• 24:19
  talk that they have put
• 24:20
  down for the last couple of years.
• 24:22
  I think next week we'll
• 24:23
  bring the hype as well.
• 24:25
  I'm excited to see that one.
• 24:30
  So has anybody done the, uh,
• 24:34
  twenty five point two yet?
• 24:37
  I have not.
• 24:39
  I'm probably going to do it Sunday.
• 24:42
  I'm thinking.
• 24:47
  I'm trying to figure out if
• 24:48
  I want to do it.
• 24:49
  Our X are scaled because I
• 25:01
  know Lakai has posted a
• 25:02
  score already of a four fifty four.
• 25:09
  George Sterner, a five oh five.
• 25:12
  Angelo DiCicco, a five oh nine.
• 25:16
  Those are some of the top
• 25:17
  scores on the men's side right now,
• 25:19
  already posted.
• 25:24
  Did it this morning in the
• 25:25
  five thirty a.m.
• 25:25
  class.
• 25:26
  Craig's doing it tonight as affiliate.
• 25:28
  How'd you do, Mike?
• 25:35
  Some of the top women's scores.
• 25:38
  Kristen Holta just seems to
• 25:40
  be the person that gets out
• 25:42
  there and posts the score
• 25:44
  to beat early and then lets
• 25:45
  people come after her.
• 25:47
  She did a five Oh three
• 25:48
  currently sitting in first
• 25:50
  is Kristen Holta and Emily
• 25:52
  Rolfe's time from yesterday
• 25:53
  still sits in second at five,
• 25:57
  Sydney Wells.
• 25:58
  The score is sitting in fourth currently
• 26:04
  trying to see if any other
• 26:05
  big names jennifer dieter
• 26:08
  the masters athlete uh
• 26:19
  halpin beat his two
• 26:21
  thousand two score but not
• 26:22
  by much went from double
• 26:24
  under issues to chest to
• 26:25
  bar issues live and learn
• 26:26
  yeah I did it scaled in twenty two
• 26:34
  So that's why I'm kind of
• 26:34
  debating whether to try to beat my .
• 26:36
  .
• 26:36
  .
• 26:36
  .
• 26:36
  .
• 26:36
  .
• 26:36
  .
• 26:36
  .
• 26:37
  .
• 26:37
  .
• 26:37
  .
• 26:37
  .
• 26:37
  .
• 26:37
  .
• 26:37
  . .
• 27:01
  Um, but Kristen Holta, five Oh five,
• 27:03
  five Oh three, the time to be right now.
• 27:10
  Uh, uh, actually helping.
• 27:11
  I think you're one of the
• 27:13
  first people that I've seen
• 27:14
  had that has actually beat their score.
• 27:17
  Um, other than Sydney Wells,
• 27:20
  she was the only person
• 27:21
  that I've seen personally
• 27:22
  beat their score from.
• 27:24
  So I think beating your score is pretty,
• 27:26
  pretty cool.
• 27:32
  Yeah.
• 27:38
  So, yeah, not much else there.
• 27:44
  Going into the weekend,
• 27:45
  you guys got any big plans?
• 27:46
  I did see that World Fitness
• 27:49
  Project has announced
• 27:50
  prizes for the podiums at
• 27:54
  their different competitions.
• 27:57
  So put that out there.
• 27:59
  Elite teams of four are
• 28:01
  going to make three grand.
• 28:02
  If you win,
• 28:04
  two grand for second and one
• 28:05
  grand for third.
• 28:07
  Intermediate teams of four
• 28:08
  will make a thousand,
• 28:10
  six hundred and four hundred.
• 28:14
  Scaled teams of four will
• 28:15
  even make five hundred
• 28:16
  three hundred two hundred
• 28:18
  and the duo divisions will
• 28:19
  make seven fifty five
• 28:21
  hundred and two fifty.
• 28:24
  So they are having prize
• 28:27
  money even for a scaled division team,
• 28:29
  which surprised me a little bit.
• 28:33
  But they have made that announcement.
• 28:43
  Kyle Landis says,
• 28:43
  I wish the MMA guy was in
• 28:45
  Sterner's twenty five point two video.
• 28:47
  That would have been great.
• 28:48
  My guess is he probably got
• 28:50
  a sternly written memo and
• 28:52
  that's why he didn't appear
• 28:53
  in twenty five point two.
• 28:57
  Will Colton beat his score
• 28:59
  and take the top spot on this one, too?
• 29:02
  I think he has a good shot
• 29:03
  at taking the top spot on this one.
• 29:08
  Thank you, Corey,
• 29:08
  for the like and subscribe,
• 29:10
  like and subscribe, man.
• 29:14
  and uh sarah says I wonder
• 29:16
  how ticket sales are yeah
• 29:17
  I've not heard how ticket
• 29:18
  sales are going uh we
• 29:20
  officially put in media
• 29:21
  credentials for the
• 29:23
  indianapolis event um tour
• 29:26
  event one as a company here
• 29:29
  we requested some tickets
• 29:31
  we'll see how that goes
• 29:32
  haven't heard anything back
• 29:33
  yet I did hear back from
• 29:35
  syndicate crown I do have
• 29:37
  approval for media
• 29:38
  credentials at syndicate
• 29:40
  crown already that's good
• 29:42
  to know now I can plan
• 29:45
  The only thing that throws a
• 29:45
  big wrinkle in for me is my
• 29:48
  wife's second knee surgery
• 29:49
  to get the other one done
• 29:51
  is scheduled for May sixth,
• 29:53
  right smack in the middle
• 29:54
  of all of the CrossFit activity.
• 29:58
  So trying to figure out how
• 30:00
  to make sure she is taken
• 30:02
  care of and that I can
• 30:07
  still attend some of the stuff.
• 30:09
  So we'll see how that all works out.
• 30:16
  Andrew Sten, a stern early written memo.
• 30:20
  Yes.
• 30:21
  I think that is actually the
• 30:23
  accurate term for what
• 30:24
  happened to Mr. MMA guy.
• 30:27
  He got a stern early written memo.
• 30:32
  Are you going to Mayhem?
• 30:33
  I don't think so.
• 30:37
  I've learned through this
• 30:38
  whole thing that whenever
• 30:40
  you're with Rogue or Mayhem,
• 30:44
  their media presence is so
• 30:46
  big that there's not a lot
• 30:48
  left for you to be able to do.
• 30:51
  Um,
• 30:52
  and I am assuming that their media team
• 30:55
  is going to be able to do
• 31:00
  everything and everything
• 31:01
  they want to do to, uh, show that.
• 31:05
  And so it's going to be interesting.
• 31:06
  So I just don't think that
• 31:08
  there's a place for us there.
• 31:12
  Uh,
• 31:14
  that's how I personally feel.
• 31:15
  And I,
• 31:16
  because there's so many events this year,
• 31:17
  we have to be strategic.
• 31:19
  Uh, cause if you notice right now,
• 31:21
  we really don't have a
• 31:22
  sponsor for the show.
• 31:23
  So we're kind of doing everything, um,
• 31:26
  on the fly.
• 31:28
  And, um, yeah.
• 31:31
  So just trying to be
• 31:32
  strategic about what we're doing.
• 31:34
  And I'm really thinking
• 31:35
  about trying to follow, um,
• 31:37
  one big storyline through
• 31:38
  the season this year,
• 31:40
  as opposed to like trying
• 31:41
  to cover everything.
• 31:43
  Um,
• 31:45
  just try to be unique in
• 31:46
  that fashion I guess uh
• 31:50
  corey says colton is going
• 31:51
  two for two y'all uh and I
• 31:55
  don't just I think it is
• 31:57
  definitely possible but I
• 32:00
  think with workouts like
• 32:01
  this you just you just
• 32:03
  never know but colton's
• 32:07
  upper body pulling is awesome um and his
• 32:11
  Thrusters are incredible.
• 32:14
  Double-unders are pretty good.
• 32:15
  I think he's going to be fine.
• 32:19
  But people came close.
• 32:20
  Like Colin Bossard only missed out by,
• 32:24
  what,
• 32:25
  four seconds or four reps last time.
• 32:28
  So it's not like Colton's unbeatable,
• 32:31
  but I definitely think he's
• 32:32
  the favorite going into this for sure.
• 32:37
  But there's a lot of fit
• 32:38
  people out there now.
• 32:40
  Um, so it'd be interesting to see.
• 32:47
  So this weekend, um,
• 32:51
  train to live says re
• 32:52
  redemption for Hatfield could be,
• 32:56
  could be some redemption for Hatfield.
• 33:00
  He's going to have to lock
• 33:00
  out those elbows on those
• 33:02
  thrusters though.
• 33:04
  Um,
• 33:07
  Yeah,
• 33:07
  I think there's a lot of people that
• 33:09
  could do well.
• 33:10
  I still would give Colton
• 33:12
  the nod if I'm picking,
• 33:14
  but I think that there are
• 33:16
  definitely a lot of people
• 33:17
  out there that can give him
• 33:18
  a run who are good at
• 33:21
  certain things and will
• 33:22
  give him a definite run for
• 33:25
  his money for sure.
• 33:29
  But only time will tell.
• 33:32
  he held off posting until
• 33:33
  monday last week so we may
• 33:35
  have to wait all the way
• 33:37
  because he may want to see
• 33:38
  the scoreboard and know
• 33:39
  what he has to hit uh it'll
• 33:43
  be interesting of course
• 33:47
  I'm not saying he's going
• 33:48
  to blow everyone away but
• 33:49
  this workout was almost
• 33:51
  designed for colton he and
• 33:53
  tetlow are the same size
• 33:55
  and tetlow currently holds
• 33:56
  a world record yeah who's
• 33:59
  to say tetlow won't do it again
• 34:02
  I'm betting he's still pretty fit.
• 34:07
  He may take a shot.
• 34:11
  And my boy Scott Telo can cycle a barbell.
• 34:14
  That is for sure.
• 34:25
  Aren't the barbells been
• 34:26
  doing Colton and Austin life?
• 34:28
  I think they are,
• 34:28
  but I don't think it's
• 34:29
  necessarily an open announcement.
• 34:32
  Uh, I think it, maybe it is this one.
• 34:41
  Uh,
• 34:42
  I know they were talking about it on
• 34:44
  Wednesday night.
• 34:48
  Uh,
• 34:48
  Corey saw Tetlo at a camp can confirm
• 34:51
  his fitness.
• 34:58
  Sten says,
• 34:59
  I thought Tetlo posted he is injured.
• 35:02
  Scott's always injured, man.
• 35:04
  I'm just kidding.
• 35:05
  I think he's retired is what he really is.
• 35:10
  I know with his wife's
• 35:11
  business now and stuff,
• 35:12
  they're really like he
• 35:14
  needs to focus more on family.
• 35:17
  So, yeah.
• 35:23
  Aaron says, I do think it's this workout.
• 35:29
  I just, I don't think they, at Wednesday,
• 35:33
  they didn't know it was
• 35:34
  going to be the workout.
• 35:35
  It was like,
• 35:36
  if it's going to be the workout, maybe,
• 35:39
  and even if it's not the open one,
• 35:41
  we could do something.
• 35:42
  So maybe they will, maybe they won't.
• 35:44
  It doesn't surprise me that...
• 35:46
  With John's infatuation with Austin,
• 35:49
  I'm sure he has his number
• 35:51
  or he found it some way stalking him.
• 35:55
  And Colton is good friends with the spin.
• 35:57
  They could set it up for
• 35:58
  sure this weekend.
• 36:01
  Sarah thinks it was twenty
• 36:02
  five point one to do together.
• 36:05
  Yeah.
• 36:05
  So I watch the spin as I'm
• 36:07
  going to bed on Wednesday
• 36:08
  night and I will admit
• 36:10
  sometimes I'm drifting off or I'm.
• 36:15
  Doing all of that.
• 36:18
  And actually, Aaron,
• 36:19
  Colton was on live when
• 36:21
  they were talking about it,
• 36:22
  and then Austin was in the comments.
• 36:26
  I do remember that, and I did agree to it,
• 36:28
  but they didn't know it was
• 36:29
  going to be an open workout
• 36:30
  when they did.
• 36:33
  So that's the piece I think
• 36:36
  that is missing.
• 36:39
  Because I think they said if
• 36:40
  it's not an open workout,
• 36:41
  they would do it after the
• 36:43
  open was done and do it
• 36:45
  like a side competition.
• 36:47
  So I don't know if they'll
• 36:48
  do it during the open or
• 36:50
  wait and do it again after
• 36:52
  the open's done.
• 36:58
  So yeah.
• 37:01
  So other than that...
• 37:03
  Sunday, going to do this.
• 37:06
  Saturday,
• 37:06
  I've got a birthday party to go
• 37:07
  to for a friend of ours.
• 37:10
  So we're going to go do that.
• 37:17
  I did see something.
• 37:18
  Who the heck was I talking?
• 37:23
  I don't know what it was.
• 37:27
  I'll have to find it and bring it up.
• 37:30
  But...
• 37:32
  Yeah.
• 37:33
  It was,
• 37:33
  somebody posted something that they
• 37:36
  stopped drinking alcohol.
• 37:39
  And the minute they did,
• 37:39
  they got like their abs like shredded.
• 37:45
  I have quit drinking alcohol
• 37:47
  for over a year now.
• 37:48
  And my abs are still not shredded.
• 37:53
  It has probably made me
• 37:54
  healthier and fitter.
• 37:55
  And, um,
• 37:58
  help me lose weight but it
• 38:00
  does not shred my abs just
• 38:02
  saying anyway well with
• 38:10
  that we're coming up on the
• 38:11
  end of my lunch hour um
• 38:15

• 38:17
