Transcript
- 0:03I still hate the Packers.
- 0:04I almost didn't do the show tonight,
- 0:06but I couldn't leave you all hanging.
- 0:08So here we are.
- 0:09We're going to put something together.
- 0:41What is going on, everybody?
- 0:43It is Sunday, Sunday,
- 0:46Sunday night CrossFit talk.
- 0:49What is going on?
- 0:51Time to get all jazzed up,
- 0:52as CrossFit would say.
- 0:56Do you know that only forty three percent
- 0:58of the people that listen to our channel
- 1:00are subscribed?
- 1:01I saw that stat and I was actually
- 1:03surprised by that.
- 1:04I thought since we're a smaller niche
- 1:06group,
- 1:07channel like the people that watch would
- 1:09be subscribed i would think it'd be like
- 1:11eighty ninety percent well you would think
- 1:14and it's free all you have to do
- 1:16is hit the button and it just it
- 1:18helps us show up in your your queue
- 1:21when we're available get notified yep so
- 1:25fifty seven percent of you that listen to
- 1:28this show are not subscribed and all you
- 1:31have to do is hit the button no
- 1:33charge
- 1:35And you can hit the notify and it'll
- 1:36tell you like when we have shows coming
- 1:38on.
- 1:38So, uh, I don't know.
- 1:42Is Carolyn drinking apple juice?
- 1:44No, it's like a crystal light.
- 1:46It's like a raspberry iced tea.
- 1:50And also my third C for later.
- 1:52Yeah.
- 1:54I kind of,
- 1:54I'm going to go back and forth between
- 1:56both.
- 1:57Are you drinking?
- 1:59Are you drinking the, uh, lemonade one,
- 2:02Scott?
- 2:03Oh,
- 2:04Yeah,
- 2:05I can't keep it hot down here to
- 2:07do it during the show.
- 2:08Yeah.
- 2:08I just do the strawberry lemonade.
- 2:11So you do the strawberry lemonade cold and
- 2:13then the other one hot?
- 2:15Correct.
- 2:16Have you tried it hot for the strawberry
- 2:18lemonade?
- 2:19I have not.
- 2:19No.
- 2:21I haven't done that one hot.
- 2:23I can't picture lemonade warm.
- 2:25I actually, I kind of could.
- 2:27And she's got a point.
- 2:28Cause the reason I don't want that one
- 2:29right now is cause I'm cold.
- 2:30Like I don't want to have a cold
- 2:31drink before bed.
- 2:33So I would consider trying that.
- 2:35Yeah.
- 2:35I haven't tried.
- 2:36I've only done the strawberry lemonade
- 2:38cold, but I'm just thinking,
- 2:39cause before you guys mentioned the salted
- 2:41caramel one hot,
- 2:42I had only had it cold.
- 2:44Um,
- 2:45So I'll try that.
- 2:46I'll have to try the strawberry lemonade.
- 2:49Oh, and by the way,
- 2:49use code Jazzy and you get fifteen percent
- 2:51off your order.
- 2:52If you want to try it hot,
- 2:53cold with milk or with water,
- 2:55you can do it that way.
- 2:57Because Corey did his first salted caramel
- 3:02chocolate with water.
- 3:04And I said,
- 3:05you didn't do it with milk.
- 3:06And he's like,
- 3:07you can do it with milk.
- 3:08And I was like, yeah.
- 3:09And it's really good with milk.
- 3:11Like warm milk.
- 3:13I do water usually.
- 3:14I do water.
- 3:16I put it in my Ninja Bullet so
- 3:18it like froths up like a cappuccino.
- 3:22So it's like a nice warm drink before
- 3:23bed.
- 3:25I just have like my collagen hot water
- 3:27that I just press and then I just
- 3:29stir it.
- 3:31Don't do hot strawberry lemonade with
- 3:32milk, please.
- 3:34Yeah,
- 3:34I probably would avoid that combination.
- 3:36I had this conversation with someone the
- 3:40other day.
- 3:40Do you put the hot water first and
- 3:43then the package and then you mix it?
- 3:45Or do you put the package and then
- 3:46the hot water and then mix it?
- 3:49I go water, package, mix.
- 3:52I do package, then water.
- 3:59I don't know if there's a proper way
- 4:01to do it.
- 4:02I don't know.
- 4:03Sunday, Sunday, Sunday night,
- 4:05Thursday talk.
- 4:07so it was a crazy weekend i was
- 4:11just telling the ladies we got our outdoor
- 4:13christmas lights and everything up this
- 4:15weekend um it's weird because my
- 4:18daughter's not coming home for christmas
- 4:19so it's hard for us to kind of
- 4:21get into the holiday spirit but we did
- 4:24put up all the lights this weekend made
- 4:26the outside of our house super cute and
- 4:29uh
- 4:29super cute um and so uh we did
- 4:34that yesterday and then today we we like
- 4:37did a deep clean of the house moved
- 4:39furniture mopped under furniture did the
- 4:41whole stuff so um so why is everybody
- 4:51just having to give yeah i mean
- 4:55Ken, I am happy where the Bears are.
- 4:58They are way ahead of schedule to go
- 5:00toe-to-toe with the Packers right down to
- 5:02the wire.
- 5:03Like in years past,
- 5:04I would be depressed right now.
- 5:06But they went toe-to-toe with the Packers
- 5:09right down to the last second.
- 5:10I had people text me,
- 5:13you think they're going to go for two?
- 5:14I was hoping they went for two because
- 5:17why not?
- 5:18They're on like –
- 5:20It's all like house money this year.
- 5:23We were not supposed to be good at
- 5:25all.
- 5:28And I know there's a lot of Packer
- 5:30fans like Jeremy and that trying to get
- 5:33my goat, but it is what it is.
- 5:36I'm good.
- 5:36And we play again in two weeks in
- 5:38Soldier Field.
- 5:39So we can make up the game difference
- 5:41in two weeks.
- 5:42Yeah.
- 5:47Caleb seems like he is actually matured I
- 5:49believe so too he runs the offense really
- 5:51really well yeah just get his accuracy
- 5:54down and I think he just has to
- 5:57stop he's slowing down thinking or just
- 5:59thinking is his the game is slowing down
- 6:03for him and I think that eventually the
- 6:05accuracy will catch up when it clicks look
- 6:08out world because that offensive line is
- 6:11no joke but you won't well we'll see
- 6:19uh uh why would you go for two
- 6:25because i couldn't go for three one of
- 6:27my favorite football things about okay um
- 6:32i'm watching this over the texans but i
- 6:35know i can't stay up to see anyway
- 6:37four thirty comes away too early yeah i
- 6:41if i could never do four thirty i
- 6:43don't think jamie's seen four thirty in
- 6:45her life
- 6:46Oh, stop.
- 6:48I've been up till four thirty plenty of
- 6:49times, Scott.
- 6:52But never up at four thirty.
- 6:54I have,
- 6:55but I've had to coach the five a.m.
- 6:56class a couple of times.
- 6:58The weekly Fergie question sponsored by we
- 7:01need to get a sponsor for the weekly
- 7:02Fergie question.
- 7:04Jamie,
- 7:04would you rather listen to Scott discuss
- 7:06the Bears game for two hours or spend
- 7:07two hours in physical therapy?
- 7:09That is a tough one.
- 7:10I am not a fan of physical therapy.
- 7:14I have not been to physical therapy in
- 7:16like three or four weeks.
- 7:20I don't feel like it would totally depend
- 7:24on where I was going to physical therapy.
- 7:26Like if I was getting work done on
- 7:30me, like manual manipulation,
- 7:32I would probably go do that kind of
- 7:34stuff.
- 7:34Graston, like cupping stuff.
- 7:36I would pick that.
- 7:37If it was me going and doing the
- 7:39stupid exercise that they have me do,
- 7:41I would listen to Scott all day.
- 7:46Jeremy wants to know,
- 7:47do people in Canada know what the NFL
- 7:48is?
- 7:50I am a huge NFL fan and I
- 7:53watch almost like, I don't know,
- 7:55three or four shows on YouTube of recaps
- 7:58and analysts of NFL or any type of
- 8:01sport.
- 8:02If you watch like what,
- 8:03like all of my stuff on YouTube is
- 8:05sports related,
- 8:06CrossFit or football or NBA, WNBA.
- 8:09Like all I do is consume sports.
- 8:11So I could talk about NFL for hours.
- 8:16Uh,
- 8:17anybody have heartburn over the college
- 8:19football playoff selections today?
- 8:22Not really.
- 8:23I watched that.
- 8:24I mean, I get it.
- 8:25I get the controversy of everyone talking
- 8:28about, I mean, they,
- 8:29they needed to be very critical on this
- 8:31as,
- 8:31or teams will stop playing harder teams
- 8:35early in the season.
- 8:36Cause it's, it,
- 8:37there's gonna be no benefit.
- 8:38Like it's going to hurt them.
- 8:39Um, but it made sense to me.
- 8:41I mean, I feel like.
- 8:43I feel like Miami over Notre Dame made
- 8:45sense.
- 8:46I can, I mean, sure.
- 8:47Notre Dame is going to be upset,
- 8:48but I, that pick makes sense to me.
- 8:50Yeah.
- 8:54I, I thought they,
- 8:55they did it the best they could.
- 8:57There's gotta be,
- 8:57there's no way that James Madison deserves
- 9:00to be in over some of these schools.
- 9:03I don't know how we fix that.
- 9:04It's like the South America region at the
- 9:07CrossFit games.
- 9:08Yeah.
- 9:09Right.
- 9:09like that we let some of the teams
- 9:11into the playoff i i don't know how
- 9:13we fix that what i hate about what
- 9:17um notre dame did after the fact saying
- 9:21uh we are not going to a bowl
- 9:23game we're taking our ball and going home
- 9:24because you didn't pick us yeah i think
- 9:27is is classless and and really bad for
- 9:31the program because now you cannot
- 9:33practice
- 9:35if you have a bowl game,
- 9:36you get to practice an extra month with
- 9:38the kids you have to get extra time
- 9:40with them to develop the team for next
- 9:43season.
- 9:43And they've thrown that away pouting over
- 9:46not being selected.
- 9:49Yeah.
- 9:50Yeah, I agree.
- 9:52So whoever asked above,
- 9:55I have never missed a flight.
- 9:57I have been close,
- 9:58but I have never missed a flight.
- 10:03The committee made their bed by ranking
- 10:04Notre Dame over Miami on its early list,
- 10:07and basically they squeezed them together
- 10:08all season.
- 10:10I heard something that I really like.
- 10:12They should not be doing – I think
- 10:13it was Kirk Herbstreet.
- 10:14They should not be doing a Tuesday show
- 10:16showing the rankings before the end of the
- 10:18season because not all the data points are
- 10:21in until the end of the season.
- 10:23So doing it partway through is going to
- 10:25skew what reality is.
- 10:29So I don't know.
- 10:40Truth,
- 10:40dirty secret is these big schools
- 10:42sometimes take a loss on bad bowl
- 10:44destinations.
- 10:46Yeah, but from what I understand,
- 10:47CrossFit,
- 10:48it's really about getting practice time
- 10:51with the kids that are staying for the
- 10:52next season.
- 10:55Yeah, he's got a point.
- 10:55They may all be going to the transfer
- 10:57portal anyway,
- 10:58so do they need to practice?
- 10:59They're not all going to the transfer
- 11:01portal.
- 11:03Yeah.
- 11:04Anyway,
- 11:06I think that's all I had for the
- 11:07weekend.
- 11:08I want to get into tonight cause I
- 11:09want to get into the,
- 11:10the end of the show.
- 11:11We're going to hit some CrossFit news off
- 11:13the top.
- 11:14And as promised,
- 11:15we are going to take the nominations for
- 11:17best sports movie of all time.
- 11:20At the end of the show,
- 11:21Jamie Carolyn and I will give you our
- 11:23top five sports movies of all time.
- 11:25This week I will take all the things
- 11:27that you guys say in the chat.
- 11:29In addition to what our top fives were,
- 11:32and I'm going to put them together in
- 11:33a bracket.
- 11:34And next week we're going to do live
- 11:35polls during the show to determine the
- 11:39greatest sports movie of all time.
- 11:41It's going to be bracketed out by sport.
- 11:44The best I can do that.
- 11:45So we'll have a baseball bracket.
- 11:47We'll have a football bracket.
- 11:48We'll have a combat sports bracket.
- 11:50We'll have a bracket of sports on ice.
- 11:54Um,
- 11:55We'll determine the best movie in those
- 11:57categories as we go.
- 11:59Then we will determine the greatest sports
- 12:03movie of all time.
- 12:05Speaking of on ice,
- 12:06did you see the Wisconsin Badgers are
- 12:09number one in men's hockey?
- 12:11Are they in the men's hockey?
- 12:13I'm so used to just looking at the
- 12:14women's being number one.
- 12:17The boys team hasn't been amazing since
- 12:21I've been there.
- 12:22Maybe MSU the other week.
- 12:24So they're number one.
- 12:24That's awesome.
- 12:26That means both teams are number one.
- 12:30That's the beauty of this, CrossFit.
- 12:31As a Canadian,
- 12:32we can't trust Kara on Miracle.
- 12:34And we have listeners all over the globe.
- 12:36We have people in Europe.
- 12:38And so when the poll is live,
- 12:39the listeners are going to vote, not us.
- 12:42Wait,
- 12:45are they saying that I'll pick Miracle or
- 12:47not pick Miracle?
- 12:47Not pick Miracle.
- 12:48You will not.
- 12:49Because it's an American hockey story.
- 12:50Right.
- 12:51But I was coached by Mark Johnson,
- 12:53who's literally featured on Miracle on
- 12:55Ice.
- 12:56Why would I not pick that?
- 12:58That's silly.
- 13:00If you went to Wisconsin and you're
- 13:01coached by Mark Johnson,
- 13:03that's literally the most iconic movie to
- 13:05us.
- 13:08All right.
- 13:08So let's get into.
- 13:09You guys don't know me then.
- 13:11Let's get into the big news of the
- 13:12week.
- 13:14And we're going to start it off as
- 13:15we always do with pencil, pen, or Sharpie.
- 13:19Our first one is,
- 13:20and I did get them loaded in today,
- 13:23is pencil, pen, or Sharpie.
- 13:26Having all divisions compete in the same
- 13:28location in the same week at the CrossFit
- 13:31Games is here to stay.
- 13:33For how long?
- 13:37Not just this year.
- 13:39I'm saying it will be here moving forward.
- 13:41At least one more year.
- 13:44Well, I mean, this is,
- 13:46let's say five years in the next,
- 13:49I say pencil.
- 13:52So I, I don't know.
- 13:57I say pen.
- 13:58I feel like
- 14:03We don't know exactly what was given away
- 14:07to Pitt or Legends.
- 14:10How much of the open proceeds did they
- 14:12have to send off to those two entities
- 14:16to put together their games?
- 14:20I kind of wonder if this doesn't ramp
- 14:24up sales and they realize that this isn't
- 14:26a net benefit to the games.
- 14:29Like if they sell more ticket sales this
- 14:30way and didn't have to give any of
- 14:33the open proceeds away to legends or pit,
- 14:35they're like, man,
- 14:37we can manage this better ourselves.
- 14:39So I feel like maybe Penn.
- 14:41White.
- 14:44I'm having a hard time following you,
- 14:45but I am Penn.
- 14:48I do think that they're realizing that by
- 14:51splitting them up in the same, say,
- 14:54four-week period and having people travel
- 14:57to Las Vegas, to Columbus, to Albany,
- 15:01New York,
- 15:02was not a good way to sell tickets.
- 15:08I think by having everybody in the same
- 15:10city on the same week brings everybody to
- 15:13the same location and people will buy
- 15:15tickets for different pieces of that
- 15:17event.
- 15:19And therefore their ticket sales overall
- 15:22will go up.
- 15:23The festival feel will go up.
- 15:26And that's why I think it's Penn.
- 15:28I think it's a money thing and they've
- 15:31retained legends pit and wheel wad to run
- 15:35their individual shows.
- 15:37So they still can be like, Hey,
- 15:38it's your thing,
- 15:39but we're all going to do it in
- 15:40the same city in the same week.
- 15:43Yeah.
- 15:43But the net cost to CrossFit is,
- 15:48didn't go like did go up and i
- 15:50don't again i don't know what they had
- 15:52to give out like did they give twenty
- 15:54five percent of the open proceeds to
- 15:57legends to go coordinate their budget and
- 16:00coordinate their own games and pay out
- 16:03like if you're still gonna have to
- 16:04obviously give them if they're going off
- 16:07of the open registration they're still
- 16:08gonna have to give them some money to
- 16:10go towards the prize purse right
- 16:13Well,
- 16:14the rule book last year had it spelled
- 16:15out exactly what went to the prize purse.
- 16:19And that was open money.
- 16:23We don't know what paid for the games
- 16:26or paid for the Masters games or Pitt
- 16:29or whatever because all that's in the rule
- 16:32book is what part of the open allotment
- 16:35goes to them for prize money.
- 16:40Right.
- 16:40But...
- 16:42Well,
- 16:42we know Pitt lost a ton of money
- 16:45two years ago when they went on their
- 16:46own.
- 16:48It cost them a fortune.
- 16:50They rented that big arena.
- 16:51Exactly.
- 16:52So if you keep pushing people like Pitt
- 16:58or Legends to do this and spend so
- 16:59much money that they can't make back,
- 17:01you may lose out on... I mean,
- 17:03I don't think either of them are going
- 17:04to say they don't want to do it.
- 17:05They're going to find economical ways.
- 17:06But if coming together...
- 17:09results in five hundred thousand dollars
- 17:12less of costs then they're probably also
- 17:15going to be like yeah we prefer this
- 17:17format like we've saved so much money this
- 17:20way we can put it into the athletes
- 17:22we can give a better kit we can
- 17:24give up maybe give a bigger prize purse
- 17:30It makes the games a thousand times more
- 17:32marketable for city RFPs.
- 17:36And that's requests for proposals.
- 17:39And the return on investment to the city
- 17:43is probably easier to calculate with
- 17:47everything going on at the same time.
- 17:50Yeah.
- 17:50Yeah,
- 17:50I just think it makes more sense
- 17:52because...
- 17:55like the vendors,
- 17:57they don't have to pick which one they're
- 17:58going to go to.
- 17:59They go one week.
- 18:01For the fans,
- 18:03you extend your hotel or whatever you need
- 18:04to do.
- 18:06And a lot of the masters would stick
- 18:08around to maybe watch the individuals go
- 18:12after that.
- 18:13They didn't say... I think that...
- 18:15The Masters are at the Convention Center,
- 18:17whatever, that's like a mile away.
- 18:20And then I think the Teens are there
- 18:21too.
- 18:22So I actually don't,
- 18:23if the Teens are there, I mean,
- 18:25I don't know.
- 18:27Is that what it is?
- 18:27It's the Teens and Adaptive that are over
- 18:29there?
- 18:29It's my understanding that the beginning
- 18:31of the week,
- 18:32the Masters are at the Convention Center.
- 18:34When Friday hits,
- 18:36the Teens and the Wheelwad group are at
- 18:39the Convention Center and the Elites are
- 18:41at the SAP Center.
- 18:43Yeah, that's my understanding.
- 18:44I just,
- 18:45I wonder how many people will make the
- 18:47travel to like the mile to go and
- 18:50watch the teenagers and the adaptive
- 18:53division.
- 18:54Once the elite is going.
- 18:55Once the elite is going.
- 18:56Yeah.
- 18:57That's going to be like,
- 18:58I feel like the masters might get more
- 19:00people just because it's a little bit
- 19:03before.
- 19:05I think that if you do it right
- 19:08in between that eight-tenths of a mile
- 19:10between the two,
- 19:11if you have like a big festival area
- 19:14with vendors and a big TV and things
- 19:17like that where the walk to and from
- 19:20has like entertainment in between,
- 19:22I think then you have a shot.
- 19:24Agreed.
- 19:26And if you have like a cheap ticket
- 19:27to come into the festival and hang out
- 19:31and then it's a cheaper and that gets
- 19:34you into the wheel wad,
- 19:36um teen games then i think people will
- 19:39take advantage of that to be there to
- 19:41be a part of it rather than pay
- 19:43the high price ticket to go see the
- 19:45elites and maybe just watch from the beer
- 19:47garden or the big tv whatever they do
- 19:50i just hope there's a way to do
- 19:52that in between i've never been to san
- 19:54jose i don't know what it's like but
- 19:56um i hope it would be i just
- 20:00i just hope that the scheduling will will
- 20:02work for the teenagers and the adapted
- 20:04because those divisions are cool to watch
- 20:07Yeah, I enjoy them.
- 20:08The adaptive a lot.
- 20:12I loved seeing how they modify things.
- 20:14And, and I like that.
- 20:16And I love the masters and the teens
- 20:17too.
- 20:17So they said it makes it hard to
- 20:23do both.
- 20:28Yeah.
- 20:29You could still try.
- 20:30I will.
- 20:32Um,
- 20:34Shelly Young,
- 20:34Larry said this back when they split them
- 20:37off,
- 20:37the Masters bring a lot more fans to
- 20:39the regular games.
- 20:40I agree.
- 20:41They do.
- 20:42If they've already paid for their airline
- 20:44and their hotel,
- 20:46it's only a couple more days to hang
- 20:47out.
- 20:50And they do CrossFit because they like it.
- 20:51So they're going to stay and watch.
- 20:53Yeah,
- 20:53that's hundreds of athletes and probably
- 20:57at least two people per person.
- 20:58I mean,
- 20:58you got probably a thousand extra people
- 21:00just by doing that.
- 21:03once the masters are done like i feel
- 21:05like they want to sometimes celebrate
- 21:07relax watch the games with like no
- 21:09pressure like when they're competing at
- 21:10the same time as the elites like they
- 21:12can't actually enjoy and go watch elites
- 21:15but i feel like the fact that they're
- 21:16done beforehand will actually make a lot
- 21:19of the masters stay yeah yeah um
- 21:29Tunji says beer garden in between with big
- 21:32screens.
- 21:33I don't know because I've never been
- 21:34there.
- 21:35I'm just thinking of like Madison.
- 21:38There was in between the two venues,
- 21:40a big screen TV and there were food
- 21:44trucks.
- 21:45And then there were big picnic tables
- 21:47where you could sit and eat and you
- 21:48could see the big screen.
- 21:50And there was a beer garden in between
- 21:52the two events as well.
- 21:54I doubt that they would have that there,
- 21:56just with the mile apart or whatever it
- 21:59is distance-wise.
- 22:00If you think about it, though,
- 22:01how far was it between the two venues
- 22:03in Madison?
- 22:04Not that far.
- 22:07I mean, it was probably half a mile.
- 22:08No, was it?
- 22:10No, not even a quarter mile.
- 22:12Especially for media.
- 22:14Yeah, the way we had to walk.
- 22:16And then around and...
- 22:18They're all in the same place.
- 22:19You're talking about Coliseum, North Park,
- 22:21and then the white convention little
- 22:24place.
- 22:25That's all in the same area.
- 22:26I'm saying the far end of the arena
- 22:30to North Park, that was... I don't know.
- 22:34That's not going to be the distance over
- 22:35there.
- 22:36It can be much further.
- 22:40Yeah, barely a quarter mile.
- 22:43You're not going to get the beer garden.
- 22:45What did you say this is?
- 22:46Eight tenths?
- 22:47It's going to be at least three times
- 22:49the distance, at least, if not four.
- 22:58I don't think it was that right next
- 22:59to each other.
- 22:59I think you guys are high, but okay.
- 23:01It was literally right next to each other.
- 23:03It sucked for us the way we had
- 23:06to go into the Coliseum.
- 23:08We had to go around the backside.
- 23:10It was really far.
- 23:16But if you were, it was for media,
- 23:18it was very far.
- 23:18Maybe, but I don't know for the fans.
- 23:23I don't think it was.
- 23:24I probably walked like three miles in one
- 23:26day.
- 23:28I mean, I walked a lot too,
- 23:29but I feel like it's,
- 23:31it was in the same area.
- 23:34Okay.
- 23:41I will give up my fight.
- 23:43Um, so what are,
- 23:44what are your thoughts about them bringing
- 23:46them all together this year?
- 23:47Love it.
- 23:48It's just for the twentieth anniversary.
- 23:52I like it.
- 23:52I'm excited for it.
- 23:57Yeah, I think it's, I mean,
- 23:58I think it's good.
- 23:59Yeah, I think that's a great,
- 24:01I think it's a great move.
- 24:03Yeah,
- 24:05I am interested to see what I know
- 24:07that Jenny's saying,
- 24:07like there's a major highway in between
- 24:09the two.
- 24:12Again, I've never been to San Jose,
- 24:13so trying to picture it is very,
- 24:15very hard.
- 24:17I just hope there's some way to give
- 24:19it a festival feel between the two.
- 24:22But that may not even be possible.
- 24:28Maybe they'll have the festival at the
- 24:31other location and sell the cheaper
- 24:33tickets to be able to watch it on
- 24:34a big screen between the teams and the
- 24:36adapt to teens and the adaptive.
- 24:40That probably wouldn't be a bad idea.
- 24:42Like a festival ticket that gave you
- 24:43access to the convention center.
- 24:46That would be smart.
- 24:47I think.
- 24:52They do need to figure out their pricing
- 24:54though.
- 24:55Yes.
- 24:56The festival ticket,
- 24:57I think is what brought a lot of
- 24:59people to Madison.
- 25:01And you want it to bring it to
- 25:02the, uh, to the vendors as well.
- 25:04Right.
- 25:06Uh,
- 25:06CrossFit says it's an easy sidewalk under
- 25:08the highway.
- 25:10Okay.
- 25:12Well,
- 25:12then we can like pitch tents in a
- 25:13beer garden under the highway.
- 25:14There you go.
- 25:16Then you're, you're good.
- 25:17If it rains, um, a train olive.
- 25:23And I,
- 25:23I was going to ask this question.
- 25:25Um,
- 25:26Carolyn,
- 25:27this year you qualified for both the Elite
- 25:31and the Masters games.
- 25:33Now it's in the same week.
- 25:34Would you still consider it doable to do
- 25:37both?
- 25:39If I could do both,
- 25:40absolutely I would do it.
- 25:41I would do it just because it would
- 25:43be crazy to do.
- 25:45And so rare to do that you would
- 25:48have to do it.
- 25:49Would your performance for the Elite
- 25:51suffer?
- 25:52Of course.
- 25:54Exactly.
- 25:54If you qualify, you're doing both.
- 25:56Yeah.
- 25:57I wouldn't care.
- 25:58I'm not going to win the elite anyways.
- 26:00Like I know where I,
- 26:01I know where I stand if I ever,
- 26:03when I'm with that group.
- 26:05Exactly.
- 26:06Like if you're trying to go for a
- 26:08top ten or a win there, that's different.
- 26:12You have a decision to make.
- 26:14If you're not in that group and you're
- 26:15being realistic with your strengths and
- 26:17weaknesses and where I am in my career,
- 26:19like if I were to qualify to the
- 26:21regular CrossFit Games again, you know,
- 26:24I'm not finishing top ten.
- 26:25So.
- 26:26cares at that point one long week of
- 26:29workouts but what an experience that would
- 26:32be uh-huh uh it just does appear there
- 26:36are there are uh homeless people in the
- 26:38area i want to bring i bring my
- 26:40beer garden so um i ken walters says
- 26:47come on dethrone tia
- 26:51We finally got a picture of Tia where
- 26:55we can see the baby bump.
- 26:56Yeah.
- 26:57Was it yesterday or today that she posted?
- 26:59Is it on her Instagram?
- 27:00I didn't see it.
- 27:02Better pull it up, Scott.
- 27:05Some sort of proven.
- 27:06I saw a picture.
- 27:07She was coaching or something.
- 27:10I think that's the first time I've seen
- 27:11her post a recent picture because a lot
- 27:13of her videos for the past months have
- 27:14been at Proven where she hasn't even been
- 27:17there.
- 27:18And they've been old videos just for like
- 27:21sponsorships and stuff like that or
- 27:23training videos that are not current.
- 27:26It's not on her page.
- 27:28Maybe Proven?
- 27:30So I'm heading next.
- 27:32I don't see one on Proven.
- 27:33Yep.
- 27:39It was there, I swear.
- 27:41Maybe it was a story.
- 27:43Yeah,
- 27:43there's no stories on Proven right now.
- 27:47This one.
- 27:49On Tia's.
- 27:50Oh, it's on Tia's.
- 27:51Go to Tia's.
- 27:52This one.
- 27:54That post.
- 27:56Just swipe through.
- 27:57I didn't see a baby bump.
- 28:02Oh, there it is.
- 28:03It's a baby bump right there.
- 28:10Got to swipe through those pictures.
- 28:16Oh.
- 28:19That is a full baby bump.
- 28:23Or she has a beer garden and a
- 28:26beer belly now.
- 28:32CrossFit says she's acting like Beyonce.
- 28:34I don't know what that means.
- 28:41I think just that Beyonce performed
- 28:43pregnant.
- 28:46I think a lot of females have performed
- 28:48pregnant.
- 28:48All right.
- 28:54There it is.
- 28:55Baby bump.
- 28:58Do you think bringing everybody together
- 29:03does anything to get more eyeballs on the
- 29:04sport?
- 29:11Not really.
- 29:14Not new eyeballs, I don't think.
- 29:17I think it facilitates for the current
- 29:20vendors and people that are already
- 29:23CrossFit fans right now.
- 29:25It just facilitates their trip,
- 29:27their yearly trip to the games and their
- 29:30choice.
- 29:31But I don't know that it changes anything
- 29:33outside of that.
- 29:34Unless it gets exposed to people outside
- 29:40of our...
- 29:41four walls, the CrossFit space.
- 29:43I will say there's, I mean,
- 29:44there's new people to CrossFit gyms every
- 29:47day and every year at the games,
- 29:50there's people that it's their first trip
- 29:52to the games.
- 29:54And someone said this earlier in the
- 29:56comments,
- 29:56the affiliates seem to have a little bit
- 30:00closer ties to their masters and to their
- 30:04age group athletes there.
- 30:06So
- 30:08I think this naturally will probably grow
- 30:12some new fans.
- 30:12If somebody makes it out of an affiliate,
- 30:16you may have a newer member there who
- 30:18is willing to travel and go to this
- 30:20and you may get new fans of the
- 30:23sport.
- 30:25Yeah,
- 30:26we talked about that a little bit on
- 30:27the lunch show that the Masters are more
- 30:29connected with the affiliate because there
- 30:32aren't as many like Masters programming
- 30:35things to subscribe to out there um and
- 30:38a lot of them do do class as
- 30:40at least part of their workout and so
- 30:42they are more connected to um especially
- 30:46the older age groups are much more
- 30:49connected to the affiliate yeah when they
- 30:51make the games it is a big deal
- 30:52for them and the affiliate um
- 30:59question is what are they planning on
- 31:01doing for the broadcast is it going to
- 31:02be a camera shooting from a rooftop of
- 31:05the arena on an iphone five i don't
- 31:10know is that is that for like the
- 31:12masters and teenagers and adaptive i think
- 31:15that's what the question is yeah yeah i
- 31:18mean who knows i just i don't even
- 31:26know what the broadcast was like last year
- 31:28you guys said it was decent
- 31:32I thought it was good.
- 31:34Remember,
- 31:34it was a different group than normally do
- 31:36it.
- 31:36It was called Rising Waters, I think.
- 31:39Something like that.
- 31:41They had the F-One leaderboard down the
- 31:46side.
- 31:47It was super cool at Masters.
- 31:50They did a lot of new and innovative
- 31:52things that we hadn't seen before.
- 31:55I remember it being decent.
- 31:57It was pretty good.
- 31:59Again,
- 32:01I'm curious what cost is being pushed onto
- 32:06Legends and Pit and Wheelwod.
- 32:11Is CrossFit HQ renting this space for the
- 32:15week?
- 32:16And does this open up a two hundred
- 32:21thousand dollar budget for Legends to do
- 32:24something different?
- 32:26Like, I don't know.
- 32:27Yeah, I don't know.
- 32:31I don't think any of us know.
- 32:33The one thing I do remember masters did
- 32:35though,
- 32:35is they cut down their broadcast to just,
- 32:39I think it was up to up to
- 32:43and then they occasionally brought in some
- 32:47of the other age groups throughout,
- 32:49not a full broadcast of the older age
- 32:51groups.
- 32:52Yeah.
- 32:53do you think that the workouts are going
- 32:55to be completely different teenagers and
- 32:58masters or do you think there's going to
- 32:59be some um collaboration between both pit
- 33:04and i wouldn't be surprised if they don't
- 33:06collaborate this year because they're not
- 33:08on this they don't have to why like
- 33:11i wouldn't if i was pit i wouldn't
- 33:13try to i have my own floor own
- 33:15day own i wouldn't collaborate
- 33:19you'll collaborate on the equipment that
- 33:20will like,
- 33:21they'll know what equipment is available
- 33:23and the spacing and stuff.
- 33:24And they'll have to retape everything.
- 33:25Maybe.
- 33:25I don't know.
- 33:28We had the argument on Friday that the
- 33:32age groups and,
- 33:34and we award should do the games workouts
- 33:39and scale them to their people.
- 33:42and and maybe they scale the number like
- 33:44if the elites are doing twelve maybe the
- 33:47masters group do nine yeah and and that
- 33:52leaves three for the unknown and the
- 33:54unknowable um and you just it and i
- 33:58think that is the best example of what
- 34:02crossfit is and how it is scalable for
- 34:05everybody
- 34:06And then I think you get that tie
- 34:08between the masters and the elites and
- 34:11it's, it's a cooler effect,
- 34:14but I don't think they're going to do
- 34:16it.
- 34:16I just, I think they should.
- 34:19Yeah, that would be cool.
- 34:23Because, and everybody on Friday,
- 34:26we were talking about how that swim ski
- 34:29event that they did in Madison where
- 34:32everybody did the exact same event and you
- 34:34could compare scores across everything and
- 34:36how cool that was to see that some
- 34:39people in the master's divisions are
- 34:41specialists in swimming and they did
- 34:43really, really well.
- 34:45And some people in the elite division suck
- 34:46at swimming.
- 34:47Yeah.
- 34:50i'm getting beat by all the age groups
- 34:53but if you did that with every event
- 34:55across the board and you all do the
- 34:57same events then it's an it's an easy
- 35:00comparison with some scaling oh for sure
- 35:04um john george i think he was in
- 35:08the argument uh it would bring everyone
- 35:10together just like the open
- 35:13And I agree.
- 35:15And then you don't have the debates with
- 35:17everybody and their programming across all
- 35:19the other divisions.
- 35:22Exactly.
- 35:24But to answer your question...
- 35:26You would have debates over leaks and
- 35:27where they come from.
- 35:32I'm sure.
- 35:32But we have those anyway.
- 35:36And to answer your question, Jamie,
- 35:37there's no way on God's earth that they
- 35:40are collaborating on workouts again.
- 35:43i didn't ask i can i can guarantee
- 35:46you yeah i agree that they are not
- 35:48collaborating on workouts again i agree
- 35:55just saying sharpie it's crossfit that
- 36:03does this online semi-finals for them yes
- 36:07legends and pitt and
- 36:11Wheelwod, they take care of... I mean,
- 36:13Wheelwod would take care of everything
- 36:14throughout,
- 36:14but the online semifinals for the age
- 36:17group divisions are run by CrossFit,
- 36:21I believe.
- 36:23I don't know if that...
- 36:24Are they the same weekend?
- 36:26Two years ago.
- 36:27I don't remember last year.
- 36:31But wouldn't they be the same weekend?
- 36:34They...
- 36:36So CrossFit's got to be running them.
- 36:38Well, last year,
- 36:39they weren't the same weekend.
- 36:40Last year, they weren't.
- 36:41It was different.
- 36:42Two years ago, we got... Yeah.
- 36:49So, I don't know.
- 36:51We'll have to see.
- 36:51Wait for the yearbook.
- 36:53The rulebook for that.
- 36:56That should be coming up pretty soon,
- 36:57though.
- 36:58You would hope.
- 36:59I think,
- 37:00wasn't it out pretty early last year?
- 37:02Like, around the summertime?
- 37:04Early.
- 37:05Yeah.
- 37:06So...
- 37:07I just worry that they think they've given
- 37:09us enough now that they don't,
- 37:10they're not hurried to get the fully robot
- 37:12rule book out yet.
- 37:19Last year,
- 37:19master semis was programmed by Joe and
- 37:21Bob.
- 37:21That's what I was thinking.
- 37:28All right.
- 37:28Let's move on to the next one.
- 37:31There was big news this week.
- 37:35Pencil, pen,
- 37:36or Sharpie combining NC fit and mayhem
- 37:40under one umbrella changes the landscape
- 37:42of CrossFit.
- 37:45I full disclosure.
- 37:46I have not watched the mayhem podcast this
- 37:48week.
- 37:48I have not got into all of this,
- 37:52but I'm going to say pen pencil.
- 37:59I mean,
- 38:01I feel like mayhem already has its,
- 38:06hand so far in around the affiliates with
- 38:13so many affiliates being mayhem,
- 38:16mayhem affiliates.
- 38:17I,
- 38:19I think they already have a bit of
- 38:21sway and control.
- 38:23I think, I mean, I think,
- 38:25I don't know,
- 38:25like they're trying to do something like,
- 38:28are they trying to do like a best
- 38:29practices way to run your affiliate?
- 38:31How to like, yeah.
- 38:32Is that what they're aiming to do?
- 38:35Honestly,
- 38:36it wasn't even that clear on the podcast.
- 38:38It wasn't?
- 38:38Okay.
- 38:43Yeah,
- 38:43I don't really know what the collaboration
- 38:46is between both of them.
- 38:47I don't think Mayhem necessarily needs
- 38:50like NorCal or NC Fit.
- 38:55I think they just want to work together
- 38:56and share best practices in general of
- 38:59things and maybe the way that
- 39:02Jason's been doing it for years.
- 39:04He's got some ideas to pitch and then
- 39:05maybe, I mean,
- 39:07I know mayhem would have ideas as well
- 39:09their way.
- 39:09So I think there's looking to work
- 39:11together,
- 39:11but it really wasn't clear exactly what
- 39:15was happening between both of them.
- 39:17Like I was,
- 39:18I was waiting to hear if Jason was
- 39:20going to have a part, like a,
- 39:23a programming or,
- 39:24part in mayhem like they have hunt i
- 39:27was like oh does he have a i
- 39:28don't know like a meet up for dads
- 39:32in the parking lot like he was talking
- 39:33about and if that was going to be
- 39:37like um a feature of their programming but
- 39:40i don't know it wasn't clear to me
- 39:42well first of all jenny cleared up last
- 39:44year the rule book came out january tenth
- 39:46okay um i watched the podcast from
- 39:49beginning to end okay
- 39:52There was really only maybe ten minutes of
- 39:55the hour plus that was about this merger
- 39:58partnership.
- 39:59I don't even know what it is.
- 40:01They didn't even really say one bought the
- 40:04other or they merged together.
- 40:07They called it a partnership under one
- 40:09umbrella.
- 40:10Yeah, like Roy was trying,
- 40:11because they were just talking about
- 40:12memories for the first bit.
- 40:14And then Roy eventually was like, okay,
- 40:16let's go back to what we were supposed
- 40:17to talk about.
- 40:18But they kind of didn't explain much of
- 40:21it.
- 40:23I don't think it changes anything.
- 40:27Well, I could see that.
- 40:28What does it change?
- 40:31I don't even know that adding NC Fit
- 40:32changes much for Mayhem.
- 40:35I'm still curious at exactly what they
- 40:37brought Austin in to do.
- 40:39He clearly had a decent role with the
- 40:41affiliates at HQ,
- 40:43so I feel like there's got to be
- 40:48some plan behind this merger.
- 40:50And
- 40:52preparing for something.
- 40:55Well, before we move on,
- 40:56there are people that don't even know what
- 40:57NC fit is.
- 40:59So NC fit was, there is a,
- 41:02it was a gym.
- 41:03It started by Jason Kalipa in Northern
- 41:06California.
- 41:08And it was his gym after he won
- 41:10the two thousand eight CrossFit games,
- 41:13which was now eons ago.
- 41:15Right.
- 41:16And it was very,
- 41:18very popular up until the mid teens.
- 41:21as this hotbed of CrossFit,
- 41:24almost as big as Mayhem was at the
- 41:26same time.
- 41:27Yeah, they had a lot of affiliates.
- 41:30Now, since then,
- 41:31Mayhem has exploded into many different
- 41:34directions with much more programming,
- 41:37way more media,
- 41:39and NC Fit had kind of stayed stagnant.
- 41:42They got another bump at COVID when they
- 41:45kind of announced that they were going to
- 41:47offer their own version of CrossFit.
- 41:50that never really amounted to much.
- 41:53But they had thirty-five CrossFit gyms
- 41:59around the world.
- 42:02And they do have some...
- 42:04they do have some pool and some footing
- 42:08in Asian countries.
- 42:11I believe is what Jason said.
- 42:13Maybe not in this podcast,
- 42:14but another one.
- 42:15And I think that may be what this
- 42:17partnership is more about trying to get
- 42:19more global than what mayhem is today.
- 42:24But again, I agree with Carolyn.
- 42:26There was,
- 42:27if you're trying to discern information
- 42:30about what this means,
- 42:32you didn't get much in this podcast.
- 42:35And they actually went to a place where
- 42:38people are just going to complain and say
- 42:40we're de-affiliating and we're moving from
- 42:42CrossFit and we're not doing that.
- 42:44We're going to do this alongside CrossFit
- 42:46as an affiliate.
- 42:48But they didn't really say what they were
- 42:49doing other than they were here to help
- 42:51coaches, help affiliates,
- 42:54but there was no business plan as to
- 42:57how any of that was going to be
- 42:58done.
- 43:00Yeah,
- 43:00I think it looked more like they were
- 43:02looking to just partner up after all of
- 43:05these years.
- 43:08And he kind of followed once Austin made
- 43:10the move.
- 43:12It kind of opened up something for him
- 43:13to be like, you know what,
- 43:15I want to affiliate with or partner with
- 43:17them as well.
- 43:19Um, but yeah, like when,
- 43:20when I started CrossFit, like the main,
- 43:21you know,
- 43:22the main programmers on the West coast was
- 43:23Invictus and, uh, NorCal.
- 43:26And then like on the East coast,
- 43:27you had the comp train.
- 43:29Um,
- 43:29you had mayhem a little bit back then
- 43:31too, a few others, but the North,
- 43:34the NorCal or NC fit post COVID when
- 43:38they changed their name.
- 43:39Um, yeah, they, they went a little bit,
- 43:42I mean,
- 43:43they were less popular at one point and.
- 43:47Um,
- 43:47what newer people might not know who they
- 43:49are.
- 43:51Austin's probably creating something to
- 43:52charge more money in terms of coach and
- 43:54gym education.
- 43:57That's where, like,
- 43:58that's where my mind goes with this.
- 44:00Like, like you've got best hour,
- 44:02someone else commented that, um, you also,
- 44:06I mean,
- 44:06you obviously have to be green business
- 44:07out there.
- 44:08Like,
- 44:10i feel like somebody's trying to step in
- 44:12and do a best practices maybe in a
- 44:17not a ten thousand dollar investment
- 44:20through best hour or two brain so like
- 44:27if if that could be incorporated into
- 44:29their mayhem affiliate somehow i think why
- 44:35why austin was brought in was to grow
- 44:38their mayhem affiliates
- 44:40He was the affiliate person at CrossFit.
- 44:44I think they brought him in to grow
- 44:46their affiliate world.
- 44:49I think that the landscape is so changing
- 44:52every day right now.
- 44:54It's hard even for them to kind of
- 44:55figure out what their plan is with
- 44:57whatever is going on.
- 45:01But, yeah.
- 45:06Uh, someone asked cross fat.
- 45:08Isn't that what best hour does?
- 45:11Yes.
- 45:12For very large sum of money.
- 45:19I think Two Brains and Best Hour do
- 45:21the same thing.
- 45:22They do.
- 45:22I've watched both their presentations at
- 45:24affiliate gatherings.
- 45:26I think they do the same thing.
- 45:28Maybe they do it in a different way.
- 45:30But they're trying to share best practices
- 45:33on how to be a better gym and
- 45:34how to be successful.
- 45:37And I think Mayhem's probably just trying
- 45:39to roll that up into a part of
- 45:41their being an affiliate.
- 45:44So...
- 45:46To me,
- 45:47it's like all of these people are starting
- 45:49to work together, let's say with Mayhem,
- 45:51and that could be a pressure point with
- 45:54whoever is the new ownership of CrossFit
- 45:57and be like, look,
- 45:57we have a group here now who's got
- 46:01the Mayhem, NCFit, we brought in Austin,
- 46:04and you don't want to lose this big
- 46:08nucleus here.
- 46:10That's how I view it,
- 46:12is they're just kind of preparing for
- 46:14whatever decision CrossFit's going to do.
- 46:17they could put whatever pressure as well.
- 46:22Terry,
- 46:22I think they're preparing to be their own
- 46:24independent fitness company in case the
- 46:26new owner of CrossFit is another private
- 46:28equity group.
- 46:29I think they're preparing to,
- 46:31I think they're doing that.
- 46:32If you're a long-term affiliate,
- 46:35you're running your own affiliate right
- 46:37now anyway.
- 46:37Correct.
- 46:39It's just whether you want to pay the
- 46:41affiliate fee to this entity to keep the
- 46:45name on your building.
- 46:48And so I do think that mayhem is
- 46:51growing so big that they just need a
- 46:53bigger staff to run what they're doing.
- 46:57Possibly.
- 46:58But that's why I said pen.
- 46:59Cause like,
- 47:00I think it will change the landscape if
- 47:02something changes with HQ, like.
- 47:08Yeah.
- 47:08I mean, if people are looking, you know,
- 47:10or,
- 47:11or like are undecided undecided on what
- 47:14they'll do and they're like,
- 47:16we'll follow you mayhem, you know, and,
- 47:18go all in right now with mayhem and
- 47:20mayhem just,
- 47:21it was just cleaning up everyone.
- 47:27Judy said best hour has helped their gym
- 47:29tremendously.
- 47:29I'm curious, Judy, did they,
- 47:31did your gym owners raise rates?
- 47:33Like that seems to be the first thing
- 47:35that happens when best hour comes in is
- 47:41they suggest a rate hike.
- 47:53See if she responds.
- 47:56Do you think mixing my third Z in
- 47:58Greek yogurt would work?
- 48:01I don't know if I'd like that.
- 48:03You could maybe do the lemonade one and
- 48:06sweeten it up.
- 48:06I'm sure you could put it in a
- 48:12nighttime smoothie.
- 48:13Yeah.
- 48:15I think you could do that.
- 48:19Sorry, the Rodecaster went down again.
- 48:21Oh, gosh.
- 48:23And I got new wires and everything.
- 48:29Uh,
- 48:31do you think proven will get that big?
- 48:34No, no.
- 48:38I don't even know if that's really their
- 48:40goal.
- 48:44I think they are more into the competitive
- 48:48piece of it then.
- 48:49And mayhem is more into the day to
- 48:50day.
- 48:52i agree with that yeah um and mayhem's
- 49:00just significantly bigger in terms of how
- 49:04many affiliates they have than proven and
- 49:06people that follow proven i think all
- 49:11right i was gonna do a pencil pen
- 49:14or sharpie but i'm not gonna do it
- 49:15for the next one um
- 49:18the I have three went on this weekend,
- 49:20the, not the masters.
- 49:21That was the complete shit show.
- 49:25The regular I have three went on this
- 49:27weekend and, um,
- 49:30the U S didn't even send anybody.
- 49:34The U S didn't send anyone.
- 49:36Didn't like Jack Rosema compete last year.
- 49:39Yeah.
- 49:40Yeah.
- 49:40There were Americans there last year.
- 49:42They're here.
- 49:43Where was it at Lithuania?
- 49:46I think.
- 49:49Here are the finals, the results.
- 49:52So on the women's side,
- 49:54Miriam Von Rohr was your winner of the
- 49:56IF-III Worlds.
- 49:58She won three out of the six events.
- 50:00Wow.
- 50:01Mathilde Garnes was second,
- 50:02and Leah Storen was third.
- 50:05Okay.
- 50:06Krieger Girls.
- 50:08Yeah, lots of Swiss and Norway, Sweden.
- 50:12Sweden.
- 50:14Yeah.
- 50:15But if you go through the flags,
- 50:17Canada sent representation,
- 50:19but there's not a U.S.
- 50:20flag to be found.
- 50:22Goodness gracious.
- 50:24That's weird.
- 50:26And if you go to the males,
- 50:32Tommaso Pieri from Italy was the winner.
- 50:37Victor Helsinghoff was second.
- 50:41And Heinrich Negard was third.
- 50:45against norway sending a pretty good
- 50:48contingent again they are subsidized by
- 50:51the government to compete in this so that
- 50:54does give them um some of the best
- 50:58people out there to compete but uh it
- 51:02did go on this weekend and uh from
- 51:05all accounts it went very smoothly
- 51:14Heinrich what exactly I agree exactly I
- 51:18was gonna stop you there too yeah make
- 51:27sure he says the d really hard I
- 51:29I was I was very aware most of
- 51:34the time I'm not aware I was very
- 51:35aware this time
- 51:40Okay.
- 51:40I think Miriam is going to have a
- 51:41really good year next year.
- 51:44People...
- 51:46Two years ago when she won the Open,
- 51:48she took people by surprise there.
- 51:51And people were waiting to see it in
- 51:53the semifinals.
- 51:54She's got some amazing...
- 51:57skills like engine and then um very good
- 52:02gymnastics capacity too in certain areas
- 52:05and then as well as you know cardio
- 52:08and her strength is just getting better
- 52:10too like this girl hasn't done crossfit
- 52:13for super long but she's so dedicated and
- 52:16disciplined if you follow her on um
- 52:18instagram you like for the last few years
- 52:20like you've seen that this transformation
- 52:23has
- 52:24in her and, um,
- 52:26she does like her class workouts.
- 52:28I'm, I don't know which,
- 52:29I think that her gym follows NC fit.
- 52:31If I remember seeing in one of her
- 52:32stories before, which is funny.
- 52:35Um,
- 52:35and she does the class wad and then
- 52:37she does other things.
- 52:38She's, she's legit.
- 52:40Um,
- 52:40like she was a top ten this year
- 52:42and I can for sure see her pushing
- 52:44for a top five next year, uh,
- 52:46with some of her like strengths and
- 52:48weaknesses that,
- 52:49Very little weaknesses.
- 52:52Yeah.
- 52:52I'm excited to see where she goes.
- 52:54She's young.
- 52:56Did any of you see the Hiller video
- 52:57we posted from the IF three with the
- 53:00biker finished with the biker attached to
- 53:03him?
- 53:03I have never seen that.
- 53:04It's hilarious.
- 53:06Did you have to get the bike across
- 53:08the line?
- 53:09No, it was stuck to him.
- 53:11But so he was going to finish.
- 53:13It's like stuck to his shirt or his
- 53:15pants or something.
- 53:17Oh, just one person.
- 53:18It wasn't actually tied to everybody.
- 53:19He literally dove to the finish line with
- 53:21his biker because he was stuck.
- 53:23I thought you were saying everyone was
- 53:25tied to the bike and everyone had to
- 53:26get.
- 53:26Okay.
- 53:27No, no, no, no.
- 53:28Okay.
- 53:29Again,
- 53:29this was not the shit show version of
- 53:31the I have three.
- 53:33Okay.
- 53:33So here we go.
- 53:34I'm going to blow this up.
- 53:35All right.
- 53:38So this is see the people dying,
- 53:40diving across the line to finish.
- 53:43And there's this one poor guy stuck to
- 53:45the bike.
- 53:51Have you ever seen that before?
- 53:53No.
- 53:53How do you even drag the bike like
- 53:55that?
- 53:56I'm so like,
- 53:57I just want to see the full video
- 53:58and how far he dragged it.
- 53:59What I want to know that bike must've
- 54:02been at Lee.
- 54:03Cause I can see the background.
- 54:04It's at least two lanes of that distance.
- 54:06What about this guy?
- 54:07That's finished after him.
- 54:09He couldn't even catch him and he was
- 54:11driving the bike,
- 54:14but he must've done at least two lengths
- 54:17with that bike.
- 54:20Yeah, that's ridiculous.
- 54:23And see,
- 54:23his shirt is stuck to the bike.
- 54:25I see the shirt there,
- 54:26but you should be able to get that
- 54:27off.
- 54:27I agree with Jenny.
- 54:28It's got to be like a shoelace.
- 54:30Oh, I didn't think about the shoelace.
- 54:31Yeah, it could be the shoe.
- 54:32There's no other reason that you wouldn't
- 54:33have like gotten out of it.
- 54:35But it looks like the shirt's stuck.
- 54:36It does look like shirt's stuck,
- 54:37but that makes no sense.
- 54:38It looks like he's fully stuck somewhere.
- 54:41Those bikes aren't light.
- 54:43His shoelace must have wrapped around it
- 54:45like in Footloose.
- 54:47Had to have.
- 54:51That guy,
- 54:54you can see him just start to laugh
- 54:56there.
- 54:57I just want to see another angle of
- 54:59it, not the finish line.
- 55:00I just want to see how far he
- 55:01dragged it.
- 55:03And he looks up like, eh.
- 55:09Oh,
- 55:10Hitler should have used the song from
- 55:12Footloose.
- 55:16I mean, I don't know.
- 55:17That's just crazy.
- 55:21You'd think you'd take your shirt off or
- 55:22your shoe off or whatever was stuck and
- 55:24get out of there.
- 55:26I've seen stepsister get stuck like that.
- 55:35All right.
- 55:37That was great.
- 55:40John George with a quick update.
- 55:41So mixed his third C with Greek yogurt.
- 55:44Had to add a small amount of extra
- 55:46salt.
- 55:46Delicious.
- 55:47Oh, I have the salted caramel.
- 55:50good to know so just plain like a
- 55:53vanilla greek yogurt um judy reed
- 55:58footloose that's old school memory it is
- 56:03that's a good movie speaking of movies
- 56:08yeah anyway
- 56:12Let me get out of this.
- 56:13Okay.
- 56:13So that's our, I have three,
- 56:15let's get to the fun part.

- 56:18best sports movies of all time.
- 56:21We'll go around and each tell our top
- 56:23five sports movies of all time.
- 56:25And then this week I will collect,
- 56:26I've put a poll on YouTube.
- 56:28I'll probably put one up on Instagram.
- 56:31I'll collect your favorite movies and I'm
- 56:33going to put them all into a bracket.
- 56:36And next week we're going to do live

- 57:00I don't think I've seen either of those
- 57:01movies.
- 57:02I have heard a lot of people talk
- 57:04about Brian song.
- 57:05I don't know that I've seen it.
- 57:07I definitely haven't seen both versions.
- 57:09The original is way better.
- 57:11Um, it's, it's about the Chicago bears,
- 57:13Gail Sayers and Brian Piccolo.
- 57:15okay and brian piccolo was drafted by the
- 57:18chicago bears in the sixties and uh right
- 57:21after he was drafted they found out he
- 57:22had cancer and he was fighting and him
- 57:26and uh gail sayers became best friends and
- 57:30it's it's a rough one uh there are
- 57:37so many yes there are so so so
- 57:40many there are so many very hard to
- 57:41get it to five yes
- 57:47Um, love the natural,
- 57:49but Rudy is the goat.
- 57:53Uh,
- 57:53Rudy is the most overrated sports movie.
- 57:56Yeah.
- 57:56That's why these are the conversations we
- 57:58want to have.
- 57:59Yeah.
- 58:00When we do the brackets,
- 58:01we'll be able to talk through like why
- 58:03one is better than the other.
- 58:04And that's going to be fun.
- 58:06Do we want to do it for division
- 58:09then?
- 58:09Cause I, I mean,
- 58:11No,
- 58:11we're just going to do our top five
- 58:14and it's all going to be just nominations
- 58:16to make the bracket.
- 58:18And it doesn't matter right now whether we
- 58:20repeat or we try to keep different.
- 58:21It doesn't matter if we repeat.
- 58:24Okay.
- 58:27So I'll go first just to get it
- 58:28started.
- 58:29Okay.
- 58:30I did mine as just like the most
- 58:32serious, what I thought were great,
- 58:35great movies.
- 58:36And I left out my comedy list.
- 58:40But on my comedy list would have been
- 58:41like Major League, The Replacements,
- 58:44Dodgeball, any of the Adam Sandler movies.
- 58:48Or The Longest Yard with Burt Reynolds.
- 58:52Those would have been on that.
- 58:54But for me,
- 58:55number five is Million Dollar Baby with
- 58:59Hilary Swank.
- 59:00Number four is Warrior,
- 59:03which is a very powerful movie and that
- 59:06Kenneth DeLapp puts in every time I put
- 59:08a pull-up.
- 59:10Field of Dreams is number three.
- 59:12After my dad passed away,
- 59:13I cry every time I watch it.
- 59:15Number two is The Sandlot because that was
- 59:18my childhood and it reminds me very much
- 59:20of that.
- 59:21And number one is Rocky.
- 59:24The man who was a loan shark leg
- 59:29breaker turned into boxing champion is the
- 59:32greatest movie of all time.
- 59:36So we've got some votes coming in.
- 59:38Let me just read a couple.
- 59:39CrossFit has some Slapshot.
- 59:42We have some Mighty Ducks D-III.
- 59:45Whoa.
- 59:47For Love of the Game.
- 59:50Karate Kid.
- 59:52Love and Basketball.
- 59:54Major League.
- 59:56Slapshot Hoosiers.
- 59:58Remember the Titans.
- 59:59Yes, those are all great.
- 1:00:02Happy Gilmore.
- 1:00:03Awesome.
- 1:00:10Hoop dreams,
- 1:00:11the wrestler million dollar baby breaking
- 1:00:14away.
- 1:00:15All right.
- 1:00:16Now we'll go with Jamie's list.
- 1:00:20Okay.
- 1:00:21So I, well,
- 1:00:22I also had feel the dreams on mine,
- 1:00:24but when I saw Scott's list,
- 1:00:25I made sure to change some and I
- 1:00:27tried to get something from baseball,
- 1:00:30hockey, basketball.
- 1:00:32So I have some of each.
- 1:00:34I'm sure some of you will make fun
- 1:00:35of some of mine.
- 1:00:36They're very genre, my, my age range.
- 1:00:40So I have Remember the Titans,
- 1:00:42Varsity Blues, Mighty Ducks,
- 1:00:45and if Carolyn chooses that,
- 1:00:46I have a different choice,
- 1:00:48A League of Their Own,
- 1:00:49and Love and Basketball.
- 1:00:53Those are good ones.
- 1:00:55I have, in no particular order, Rocky IV.
- 1:00:58Not one.
- 1:00:59We have this debate all the time.
- 1:01:02Coach Carter, Love and Basketball,
- 1:01:04Little Giants.
- 1:01:06I love that movie.
- 1:01:07Little Giants is great.
- 1:01:08Karate Kid, Mighty Ducks,
- 1:01:10and Miracle on Ice was my...
- 1:01:12I was between both of them for hockey.
- 1:01:15Judy Reed coming in with White Castle.
- 1:01:17It's not White Castle.
- 1:01:19It is Ice Castle.
- 1:01:21White Castle is the restaurant with the
- 1:01:23little...
- 1:01:24Ice Castles is the movie about the blind
- 1:01:27girl figure skating.
- 1:01:29Jenny with Karate Kid II.
- 1:01:33Rocky is hard to beat.
- 1:01:35Space Jam.
- 1:01:37I kid, I kid.
- 1:01:38The original Space Jam is awesome with
- 1:01:40Jordan.
- 1:01:41The Space Jam with LeBron just passed.
- 1:01:44Did you guys watch The Three Ninjas?
- 1:01:47No.
- 1:01:48I did not.
- 1:01:50So, okay.
- 1:01:51So someone in here,
- 1:01:52so white men can jump,
- 1:01:53jump is on my list,
- 1:01:55which was instead of love and basketball,
- 1:01:57if Carolyn had it and someone else wrote
- 1:01:59cutting edge is my choice if she had
- 1:02:01mighty ducks.
- 1:02:02So those two were my other two.
- 1:02:05Uh, the babe.
- 1:02:08You guys have never watched the three
- 1:02:10ninjas like Rocky loves Emily.
- 1:02:13Oh yeah.

- 1:02:24It was a basketball movie.
- 1:02:25There was twins that played.
- 1:02:27I always liked that movie because I have
- 1:02:29a twin.
- 1:02:31It was like a sports movie with a
- 1:02:32twin.
- 1:02:33It was sad.
- 1:02:36Basketball.
- 1:02:39Not basketball, but basketball.
- 1:02:42Not a fan,
- 1:02:43but I know what you're talking about.

- 1:04:41Remember the Titans was another one I had
- 1:04:43on my list.
- 1:04:44Trish had rookie of the year.
- 1:04:45That is one of my favorite movies ever
- 1:04:48where the coach can never say Rosen,
- 1:04:49Rosen Gardner.
- 1:04:51And he, he called the,
- 1:04:54the guy on first base, funky, but loving.

- 1:05:12Do you want a man?
- 1:05:12No.
- 1:05:16Bloodsport, Digstown, I, Tonya.
- 1:05:20Those are good.
- 1:05:20Digstown is one of my favorites.
- 1:05:22Bloodsport used to be one of my favorites
- 1:05:24before Jean-Claude Van Damme became
- 1:05:28Jean-Claude Van Damme.
- 1:05:32Necessary Roughness.
- 1:05:34Great movie.
- 1:05:35Days of Thunder.
- 1:05:39Magic Mike is not a sports movie.
- 1:05:44I'm sorry.
- 1:05:44It's athletic.
- 1:05:45Come on.
- 1:05:46Caddyshack.
- 1:05:49Cool Runnings is a good vote.
- 1:05:53That's a good movie.
- 1:05:54Cool Runnings is a good one.
- 1:05:56Rad?
- 1:05:58Not familiar.
- 1:05:58I'm trying to think.
- 1:06:04I had The Longest Yard, The Replacement.
- 1:06:08A goon must watch a hockey movie.
- 1:06:12I've never seen it.
- 1:06:13Yeah.
- 1:06:13Moneyball is great.
- 1:06:17Blindside.
- 1:06:18I love the blindside till all the stories
- 1:06:20came out after the fact that it wasn't
- 1:06:22necessarily true.
- 1:06:23Right.
- 1:06:24Yeah.
- 1:06:25He took a lot of offense to that
- 1:06:26movie and the way he was portrayed,
- 1:06:27it sounded like, and yeah,
- 1:06:28it kind of ruined it for me a
- 1:06:29little bit too.
- 1:06:30I loved it when it first came out.
- 1:06:35Have you guys ever watched Ladybug?
- 1:06:36No.
- 1:06:38I think it was called Ladybug.
- 1:06:40Yes, I saw it.
- 1:06:41I don't know.
- 1:06:42It's like a soccer movie, right?
- 1:06:44Yeah.
- 1:06:46The guy put a wig on and went
- 1:06:48on the girls team.
- 1:06:49I'm trying to think of all my childhood
- 1:06:52sports movie right now.
- 1:06:53Jenny says white men can't jump.
- 1:06:55Go watch it right now.
- 1:06:57Did anyone else say Mystery Alaska for a
- 1:07:00hockey movie?
- 1:07:01No.
- 1:07:01That one didn't get brought up.
- 1:07:03That is a good one.
- 1:07:05Blue Chips.
- 1:07:06Mystery Alaska is a great one.
- 1:07:08Jenny said,
- 1:07:08I've seen Three Ninjas at least two
- 1:07:10hundred times.
- 1:07:13The Rookie with Dennis Quaid.
- 1:07:14That's a good movie.
- 1:07:20Stick It.
- 1:07:20It's not a gymnastics one.
- 1:07:23Ken,
- 1:07:23you're showing that you are in your
- 1:07:25sixties.
- 1:07:26Yeah.
- 1:07:30Bull Runnings we saw.
- 1:07:30Yep.
- 1:07:34Um,
- 1:07:34someone says Savon's behind the scenes.
- 1:07:37I thought about making a CrossFit
- 1:07:38documentary bracket to go into this,
- 1:07:40but I don't know if it would hold
- 1:07:42up to these.
- 1:07:43Yeah.
- 1:07:45There's going to be so many to what
- 1:07:47we need to get this narrowed down to
- 1:07:48like, Is it like top?
- 1:07:50Like, are we doing a bracket?
- 1:07:53Uh,
- 1:07:54you gotta do like top five of each
- 1:07:56sports.
- 1:07:56That's what I think.
- 1:07:57We need to have a top five from
- 1:07:58each sport.
- 1:08:01I'll see how it plays out this week.
- 1:08:02Okay.
- 1:08:05No one said Chariots of Fire.
- 1:08:09Iron Claw.
- 1:08:11F-One.
- 1:08:13Prefontaine.
- 1:08:14Man, we're really getting old.
- 1:08:20Million Dollar Arm.
- 1:08:21Iron Claw.
- 1:08:22Foxcatcher.
- 1:08:24More League of Their Own.
- 1:08:26The Blind Side is S.
- 1:08:28It really is S now that it's kind
- 1:08:32of come out.
- 1:08:35Rudy is the same story.
- 1:08:37Joe Montana basically said the team hated
- 1:08:39Rudy.
- 1:08:39Yeah, I didn't put Rudy on the list.
- 1:08:45The other one like that that I feel
- 1:08:47like I like is We Are Marshall.
- 1:08:50Is that the one with the flight that
- 1:08:52went down?
- 1:08:53No.
- 1:08:53Yeah.
- 1:08:53No,
- 1:08:54We Are Marshall had the flight go down?
- 1:08:56Yeah,
- 1:08:56the plane crashes right at the beginning
- 1:08:57of the movie and they have to replace
- 1:08:59the whole team.
- 1:08:59That's the whole thing about it?
- 1:09:02Yeah.
- 1:09:02Kind of an important part of it.
- 1:09:08I feel like I used to watch so
- 1:09:09many movies and now I don't.
- 1:09:12Right?
- 1:09:13Bend It Like Beckham.
- 1:09:14You know what I find myself doing?
- 1:09:19I'd rather watch a movie that I know
- 1:09:21I love
- 1:09:22And I'm comfortable with then to,
- 1:09:25to risk it on a new movie.
- 1:09:27Is that,
- 1:09:27does that mean I'm old invincible fighting
- 1:09:34with my family draft day fighting with my
- 1:09:36family is awesome.
- 1:09:37Eric Mackey.
- 1:09:38I don't know that one.
- 1:09:39I didn't think it's a wrestling movie and
- 1:09:41it's a true story about one of the
- 1:09:43first big female wrestlers.
- 1:09:47Alive is where my brain was going, Judy.
- 1:09:50That's the problem.
- 1:09:53Bull Durham is a Ken movie.
- 1:09:59Yeah.
- 1:10:02Tin Cup.
- 1:10:03Did we get that out?
- 1:10:04Yeah, that one was out.
- 1:10:07Point Break.
- 1:10:17Above the Rim is greater than He Got
- 1:10:21Game.
- 1:10:22Then we've got the Stallone's rocky
- 1:10:24victory over the top.
- 1:10:28So I'm going to show what I am.
- 1:10:30The Rob Lowe movies back in the day,
- 1:10:33there was a movie called young blood about
- 1:10:37a minor league hockey player in Canada,
- 1:10:42going through the minor leagues,
- 1:10:43the juniors and the minor leagues up in
- 1:10:45Canada.
- 1:10:46It's great.
- 1:10:47Rob Lowe, like.
- 1:10:47Yeah.
- 1:10:50And then he also had a movie called
- 1:10:51Oxford Blues about the rowing team or crew
- 1:10:54team at Oxford.
- 1:10:57It was great.
- 1:11:05Ford vs. Ferrari is a great movie.
- 1:11:09It's about the twenty-four hours of Le
- 1:11:11Mans.
- 1:11:11I have not seen that.
- 1:11:14Christian Bale and Matt Damon.
- 1:11:16It is a huge movie.
- 1:11:17I haven't seen it.
- 1:11:21It's really, really good.
- 1:11:22It's going to be hard to narrow five
- 1:11:25in each category.
- 1:11:26I can name five.
- 1:11:29What was that recent movie about the
- 1:11:30rowing club boat, maybe?
- 1:11:34I know what you're talking about.
- 1:11:35There is one, and it's really good,
- 1:11:37about like a poor...
- 1:11:41college that had a crew team that got
- 1:11:43really good and everybody tried to keep
- 1:11:45them out because it was really considered
- 1:11:47like an upper class sport um and i
- 1:11:51can't remember the name of it what uh
- 1:11:55patrick swayze was in young blood too he
- 1:11:57was boys in the boat that's what it
- 1:12:02was boys in the boat scott you have
- 1:12:07a big task ahead of you to try
- 1:12:08to narrow all these picks down
- 1:12:11I know.
- 1:12:13What is it going to be?
- 1:12:15Football?
- 1:12:15Basketball.
- 1:12:17Hockey.
- 1:12:18Baseball.
- 1:12:19Not hockey.
- 1:12:20It's going to be ice sports.
- 1:12:22Cutting Edge might be up against Miracle.
- 1:12:26Mighty Ducks.
- 1:12:28Cutting Edge is figure skating.
- 1:12:30He was a hockey player.
- 1:12:31It shows some of his hockey stuff.
- 1:12:34Blades of Glory is a figure skating movie.
- 1:12:37I, Tonya is a figure skating movie.
- 1:12:39Yeah, yeah.
- 1:12:39We'll go Ice Sports.
- 1:12:40Okay, Ice Sports.
- 1:12:42So those four and then Combat.
- 1:12:46Are we putting Rocky together?
- 1:12:48That's Combat Sports.
- 1:12:51No, no,
- 1:12:51but I'm saying like you're Rocky versus
- 1:12:53Rocky IV.
- 1:12:54It depends on if we get more votes
- 1:12:55for Rocky IV.
- 1:12:56I haven't seen any.
- 1:12:58Come on, people.
- 1:13:01Rocky IV.
- 1:13:04Um,
- 1:13:06what Ken Walters is calling me a racist
- 1:13:07cause hockey is a category.
- 1:13:09I sports fine for a category.
- 1:13:12And then I would just do an other.
- 1:13:15I want to keep it as even as
- 1:13:16possible to be able to break it down
- 1:13:18right so that's what I got to figure
- 1:13:20out like Seabiscuit doesn't fit in
- 1:13:22anything Ford vs Ferrari doesn't fit in
- 1:13:25anything Days of Thunder so I might have
- 1:13:29two other categories that I can split into
- 1:13:32like a racing I don't know I guess
- 1:13:34would that be ice I don't know that's
- 1:13:40a tough one which one
- 1:13:42Would cool runnings be ice sports or
- 1:13:45other?
- 1:13:47That's a tough one.
- 1:13:48That is a tough one.
- 1:13:50I don't know.
- 1:13:52Now people don't work Rocky IV just to
- 1:13:55support Carolyn.
- 1:13:57Thanks, guys.
- 1:13:58I knew the chat would come through.
- 1:13:59Eric, Mackie, man,
- 1:14:04you guys are coming in so fast.
- 1:14:05I can't.
- 1:14:06Rocky I is better,
- 1:14:07but Rocky IV I grew up on.
- 1:14:08I respect that.
- 1:14:14comedy should be its own category.
- 1:14:16I thought about doing it that like a
- 1:14:17tearjerker category, a dramatic one,
- 1:14:21award-winning comedy.
- 1:14:23I think it's better between sports.
- 1:14:24I think with sports, then you,
- 1:14:26it's easier to kind of figure it out.
- 1:14:27Yeah.
- 1:14:34Okay.
- 1:14:35It's a rabbit hole.
- 1:14:41Any other news this week?
- 1:14:45Because I've got a lot.
- 1:14:46I'm going to have to take off three
- 1:14:48days of work to put this bracket together.
- 1:14:50I know you are.
- 1:14:51People need to,
- 1:14:53in the comments after the show,
- 1:14:54put their top three of each category.
- 1:15:00I can redo mine with top three of
- 1:15:01each category.
- 1:15:02That's what I'll do too.
- 1:15:03Versus top five.
- 1:15:04I would do that.
- 1:15:07We'll put these in the comments after the
- 1:15:08show closes.
- 1:15:11I also have a poll out there of
- 1:15:12what is the greatest sports movie on
- 1:15:14YouTube.
- 1:15:15If you want to type it in there,
- 1:15:16you can do that as well.
- 1:15:20Okay.
- 1:15:20Fergie says to use chat GPT.
- 1:15:24I want to fill in the things because
- 1:15:25I want to capture what you guys are
- 1:15:27saying.
- 1:15:29Put them in the comments.
- 1:15:30I want this to be our picks that
- 1:15:34make up the bracket.
- 1:15:35I agree.
- 1:15:38Not something the internet put together.
- 1:15:39I agree.
- 1:15:45Yeah.
- 1:15:46Anything else this week?
- 1:15:47I don't know.
- 1:15:48Lucas has exams this week.
- 1:15:49He's done with school for the semester on
- 1:15:51Wednesday.
- 1:15:53I was talking about CrossFit news,
- 1:15:54but sure.
- 1:15:55That's good.
- 1:15:57I have no CrossFit news anymore.
- 1:15:58Yeah.
- 1:16:00The only other thing that happened today
- 1:16:02is Hiller put out that video about
- 1:16:05marketing and the marketing campaigns of
- 1:16:06CrossFit,
- 1:16:08and I thought it was really good.
- 1:16:09I thought he captured it well that you
- 1:16:12don't have to overthink it.
- 1:16:14Just...
- 1:16:15if you want to go viral,
- 1:16:16you got to look at what's going on
- 1:16:18in the viral space and do things that
- 1:16:21people there are doing in its simplistic
- 1:16:24form.
- 1:16:25Right.
- 1:16:26And I think what he's saying is that
- 1:16:28CrossFit is overthinking it,
- 1:16:30trying to be too polished.
- 1:16:32And I've said that a bunch of times.
- 1:16:34I think that they,
- 1:16:35they wait to put stuff out until it's
- 1:16:37polished and finished in the way they want
- 1:16:39to present it.
- 1:16:40And sometimes like gritty is good.
- 1:16:46And sometimes just letting,
- 1:16:48like looking at what other,
- 1:16:49like that's how people go viral on Tik
- 1:16:51TOK and,
- 1:16:53and stuff all the time is they,
- 1:16:54they copy the sound of another person's
- 1:16:56Tik TOK and they do the same thing.
- 1:16:59Right.
- 1:17:00And I,
- 1:17:00I just think we are overthinking it a
- 1:17:02bit.
- 1:17:02And it needs to be,
- 1:17:05we've said this every day, every day,
- 1:17:09something needs to come out on all
- 1:17:11platforms.
- 1:17:13Yeah.
- 1:17:15And it's okay to mix in some of
- 1:17:16the polished stuff.
- 1:17:17Yeah.
- 1:17:18I'm okay with bringing the base back,
- 1:17:21but not everything shouldn't be bringing
- 1:17:23the base back.
- 1:17:24There's got to be other stuff going on
- 1:17:26as well.
- 1:17:29Yeah.
- 1:17:32That's all.
- 1:17:33That's all I got to say about that.
- 1:17:36Because when they first came out with F
- 1:17:39the Quick Fix and then Forging Elite
- 1:17:40Fitness, now the cult,
- 1:17:42I feel like we're just retreading now.
- 1:17:47Like the first couple, okay, I get it.
- 1:17:49We're good.
- 1:17:50We're getting the base back.
- 1:17:51Now I just feel like, hey, you're just,
- 1:17:53you're pulling out the tapes from
- 1:18:04Is Brink a show?
- 1:18:07A movie?
- 1:18:08Haven't seen it.
- 1:18:10That does not ring a bell.
- 1:18:15I think they need to do something on
- 1:18:17safety for CrossFit.
- 1:18:21I think one of the biggest things that
- 1:18:23people think is that it's dangerous.
- 1:18:25So I think something about how safe it
- 1:18:28is and how effective it is would be
- 1:18:30a good video.
- 1:18:36Cause it's still those,
- 1:18:37those studies that were like fake from so
- 1:18:42many years ago is still affecting a lot.
- 1:18:46We still need those like, yeah,
- 1:18:50I don't know.
- 1:18:51You'd have to have like some like short
- 1:18:53testimonials of members,
- 1:18:55middle-aged people saying that they're,
- 1:18:59you know, I don't know.
- 1:19:03feeling better than they ever have even
- 1:19:05than in their twenties or thirties or like
- 1:19:07you have to dispel the injury or people
- 1:19:11coming in from soccer and being like,
- 1:19:14I was hurt all the time playing soccer.
- 1:19:15I not hurt now.
- 1:19:17Like I've strengthened everything and I
- 1:19:19feel better than I ever have.
- 1:19:21Yeah.
- 1:19:23Yeah.
- 1:19:23I think you'd have to be careful with
- 1:19:24that.
- 1:19:24Cause I think comment made that like safe
- 1:19:27doesn't sell.
- 1:19:28It does.
- 1:19:28I don't know how you would do it.
- 1:19:30Right.
- 1:19:30In a short format.
- 1:19:32We're safe.
- 1:19:33People aren't going to be lining up at
- 1:19:34the door to come do it,
- 1:19:36but there's already a preconceived notion
- 1:19:38that you're not safe.
- 1:19:40So then how do you flip that script?
- 1:19:45Larry Young said Cinderella Man,
- 1:19:46which is a phenomenal movie that I forgot
- 1:19:48to put on my list.
- 1:19:50That is a great movie.
- 1:19:53Does She's the Man count?
- 1:19:57it would it's good enough to make the
- 1:20:01bracket but sure um yeah i think that's
- 1:20:09pretty much it uh rounders color of money
- 1:20:14i wasn't a big color of money fan
- 1:20:15i i think i i don't think i
- 1:20:16was in the right move when i went
- 1:20:18to see it and i just put it
- 1:20:19on the back burner
- 1:20:23I mean,
- 1:20:23I actually saw that theater when I was
- 1:20:25in like high school.
- 1:20:30Yeah.
- 1:20:30That's an old one.
- 1:20:31I love is rounders the, the poker.
- 1:20:33Yeah.
- 1:20:35Twenty or blackjack.
- 1:20:36I don't know.
- 1:20:37One of those where John Malkovich is the
- 1:20:39Russian that they play.
- 1:20:40Yes.
- 1:20:40Okay.
- 1:20:42Yeah.
- 1:20:43Like he's like, like dogs,
- 1:20:45dags or however he says it.
- 1:20:47Yeah.
- 1:20:47I heard Matt Damon talk about that.
- 1:20:50Nobody thought he was going to do that
- 1:20:51accent.
- 1:20:52And when he did it,
- 1:20:53they were trying to keep a straight face
- 1:20:54during the filming of those scenes because
- 1:20:58he went so far over the top.
- 1:21:01Um, uh,
- 1:21:05Carol mentioned two gender flipping sports
- 1:21:08films yet.
- 1:21:08We can't get Joanna man in.
- 1:21:10I think someone said you want him in.
- 1:21:12I don't know what Joanna man is.
- 1:21:17Is it one of the Wayans brothers?
- 1:21:23I think so.
- 1:21:25I don't know.
- 1:21:26White Chicks?
- 1:21:26It's kind of like that, yes.
- 1:21:27Yes.
- 1:21:32Hustler is greater than Color of Money.
- 1:21:38Marco,
- 1:21:38we saw your comment about the erg bike.
- 1:21:40We already showed the highlight of that.
- 1:21:42Yep.
- 1:21:42Ooh, they need to go not safe,
- 1:21:51but safer than GLP one route.
- 1:21:59I like when I see the clips of
- 1:22:01Greg talking and he's like,
- 1:22:04then stay on the couch.
- 1:22:06Like,
- 1:22:10I mean, there's nowhere safe.
- 1:22:13That's not going to get you anywhere.
- 1:22:15It's insane.
- 1:22:17Someone gets banned from the NBA and
- 1:22:19pretends to be a WNBA player.
- 1:22:21That's Joanna Mann.
- 1:22:26The wrestler with Mickey Rourke was
- 1:22:28amazing, but it was chilling.
- 1:22:31Chilling.
- 1:22:37some fergie was talking about my hair that
- 1:22:40i look like a weatherman at a local
- 1:22:41columbus tv station um i have not got
- 1:22:46a haircut in so long me too and
- 1:22:50i need one so bad um
- 1:22:59Just show how it gives you a better
- 1:23:01quality of life as you age.
- 1:23:03I think we're trying to do that,
- 1:23:05but it doesn't go viral.
- 1:23:07I think that was the point that Hiller
- 1:23:08was trying to make.
- 1:23:10You have to do things outside the box
- 1:23:12to go viral to get people to pay
- 1:23:15attention.
- 1:23:16I tell you what,
- 1:23:17more of that Super Bowl commercial,
- 1:23:19the Christmas commercial with the guy
- 1:23:22swinging the kettlebell so he can lift his
- 1:23:24kid up,
- 1:23:24that is what you got to do.
- 1:23:26Older people showing...
- 1:23:31natural movement.
- 1:23:39Ken keeps saying Jamie's having a great
- 1:23:40hair day.
- 1:23:41I don't want her head to get any
- 1:23:42bigger.
- 1:23:43My head's not big.
- 1:23:46Stop it.
- 1:23:50I know I've been giving you so many
- 1:23:51kudos this week on the lunch show.
- 1:23:54What?
- 1:23:55Yeah.
- 1:23:55I gotta go watch?
- 1:23:56You need to stop.
- 1:23:57I better go watch.
- 1:23:59I basically just said,
- 1:24:01we were talking about coffee and I,
- 1:24:03and I,
- 1:24:03it started with you making the pour overs
- 1:24:05every morning and nothing will stop you.
- 1:24:08You are hell bent on getting a pour
- 1:24:10over made,
- 1:24:11whether you have to like cut paper cups
- 1:24:13together or whatever it takes to do it.
- 1:24:16And I'm like,
- 1:24:17I am so lucky that I found Jamie
- 1:24:19to take care of me on the road.
- 1:24:22Yeah.
- 1:24:22I'm kind of particular about,
- 1:24:27Yeah.
- 1:24:28She's like the MacGyver of pour over
- 1:24:30coffee.
- 1:24:32She will figure out a way.
- 1:24:35She may burn herself six times,
- 1:24:37but she will figure it out.
- 1:24:39I know.
- 1:24:39I think I microwaved like twelve plastic
- 1:24:42cups of hot water to keep pouring.
- 1:24:48I bet Carol and Jamie were like icebox
- 1:24:50from Little Giants as kids.
- 1:24:52I loved icebox.
- 1:24:56I don't know.
- 1:24:57I got to watch this movie, too,
- 1:24:58I guess.
- 1:24:58Call me Becky.
- 1:24:59You have never seen Little Giants.
- 1:25:01That was in my top five.
- 1:25:03I know.
- 1:25:04I grew up watching Little Giants all the
- 1:25:06time,
- 1:25:06and then the guy with the little snot,
- 1:25:08and then doing the pull-ups in the closet.
- 1:25:10Oh, man, I love that movie.
- 1:25:13It kind of sounds familiar,
- 1:25:14but nothing is sticking out in my brain
- 1:25:16about it, so...
- 1:25:17There's like this guy that I couldn't
- 1:25:18catch a football.
- 1:25:19So they're throwing like toilet paper and
- 1:25:20he'd be talking his hands and be like,
- 1:25:22come on.
- 1:25:23I washed your, I cleaned your nails,
- 1:25:24washed my hands and stuff.
- 1:25:26So sometimes I would talk to my hands
- 1:25:27like that before my double unders.
- 1:25:28I'd be like, come on.
- 1:25:30I did this.
- 1:25:30I did this.
- 1:25:31Like annexation of Puerto Rico.
- 1:25:35Yeah.
- 1:25:38Now I have two.
- 1:25:38There was one kid that kept blowing snot
- 1:25:40bubbles.
- 1:25:41Yep.
- 1:25:42The one with the glasses.
- 1:25:43Yeah.
- 1:25:45And he would talk tough to the opponent.
- 1:25:49He's so skinny too.
- 1:25:50How about a lifting movie, Pumping Iron?
- 1:25:58That's a great movie.
- 1:25:59I don't know if it would be in
- 1:26:00the greatest of all time.
- 1:26:06He also said Jamie will never agree with
- 1:26:08any programming.
- 1:26:09Oops, threw you under the bus, Scott.
- 1:26:14don't know if that's entirely true
- 1:26:19probably like ninety percent true uh
- 1:26:23debbie does dallas is not a sports movie
- 1:26:24fergie north dallas forty is a sports
- 1:26:27movie and i'm not doing the uh debbie
- 1:26:37does dallas category so there
- 1:26:43So, all right, guys.
- 1:26:45So now that you've given me plenty to
- 1:26:47consider for the bracket,
- 1:26:49I will be putting that together this week.
- 1:26:51Next week, we'll do that.
- 1:26:52We'll see how that works.
- 1:26:55We've got some more after WFP.
- 1:26:57We've got another dead time before the
- 1:26:59open.
- 1:27:00So maybe we'll do some other bracket type
- 1:27:02stuff to get us through the off season.
- 1:27:06Jamie wants to do Christmas movies.
- 1:27:08That might be a smaller bracket.
- 1:27:11We'll see how that goes.
- 1:27:12Maybe we'll do that the week of Christmas.
- 1:27:15Okay.
- 1:27:17So.
- 1:27:20Yeah.
- 1:27:21The only version of longest yard is
- 1:27:22seventy four.
- 1:27:23Eric, that's it.
- 1:27:26And no diehard doesn't count.
- 1:27:31The program starting defense seat the
- 1:27:33table.
- 1:27:33I didn't like the program.
- 1:27:35You didn't.
- 1:27:36I didn't.
- 1:27:38What I hate about serious football movies
- 1:27:41that try to be serious is they take
- 1:27:43every issue that happens in the league and
- 1:27:46they put it on one team.
- 1:27:48And it's so unrealistic then to me.
- 1:27:51They've got steroids.
- 1:27:52They've got their womanizer.
- 1:27:54They've got eighteen kids.
- 1:27:55They've got all of that happens on one
- 1:27:57team.
- 1:27:59Is that how you felt about any given
- 1:28:01Sunday?
- 1:28:02Less so, but still.
- 1:28:03Yeah.
- 1:28:06I much more enjoyed like necessary
- 1:28:08roughness,
- 1:28:08like a funny movie or something like that.
- 1:28:15So we have five categories for people to
- 1:28:17vote on football, basketball, basketball,
- 1:28:21ice, ice, combat, combat and other.
- 1:28:27And then they want me to do a
- 1:28:28comedy specific one.
- 1:28:30Or soccer.
- 1:28:31Wait, no.
- 1:28:32Soccer can go another.
- 1:28:33I'm trying to think of many soccer movies.
- 1:28:35I need an even number.
- 1:28:36It can't be an odd number for the
- 1:28:38bracket.
- 1:28:42That's fine.
- 1:28:42So we need one more category.
- 1:28:44Baseball, basketball, hockey, ice.
- 1:28:48We said ice.
- 1:28:50Ice, combat, and other.
- 1:28:52Yeah,
- 1:28:52you missed baseball when you were
- 1:28:53counting.
- 1:28:53There's six.
- 1:28:56It has to be combat, Ken.
- 1:28:58You've got to have boxing and wrestling.
- 1:29:00I feel like combat should go in other
- 1:29:04as well, personally.
- 1:29:06There's too many of them.
- 1:29:07Think about it.
- 1:29:08You have all the Rockies,
- 1:29:10the three ninjas, Karate Kid.
- 1:29:14Well, if you need six, then it works.
- 1:29:17That works.
- 1:29:18Million Dollar Baby.
- 1:29:19You have to do combat.
- 1:29:21Fine.
- 1:29:22Combat and other.
- 1:29:22Wrestling, UFC, because the Warriors, UFC,
- 1:29:27all that.
- 1:29:28All right.
- 1:29:30Because boxing goes in that too.
- 1:29:32Yeah.
- 1:29:32No, combat for sure.
- 1:29:33It is like a jujitsu movie of some
- 1:29:37sort.
- 1:29:40Yeah.
- 1:29:41Okay.
- 1:29:41So people need to put their,
- 1:29:42what would we say,
- 1:29:43top three in their comments?
- 1:29:45And then you'll bracket.
- 1:29:46That'll work.
- 1:29:48Yeah.
- 1:29:49In the comments,
- 1:29:50put your top three in a category,
- 1:29:54and they will be considered for the
- 1:29:57bracket.
- 1:29:58With that,
- 1:29:59I'm going to go watch the Chiefs and
- 1:30:01the Texans.
- 1:30:04All right.
- 1:30:06And we will see everybody next time on
- 1:30:11Sunday, Sunday,
- 1:30:12Sunday Night CrossFit Talk.
- 1:30:16Bye, guys.
