- 1:16today.
- 1:18woke up to four to five inches of
- 1:20snow this morning everything is covered
- 1:25man it's nice to not have to go
- 1:27into an office and work from home on
- 1:29days like this didn't have to brush off
- 1:32a car didn't have to heat up the
- 1:34car just had to roll out of bed
- 1:37turn on my computer and get to work
- 1:41man so nice so nice
- 1:46uh,
- 1:47Joey Perez saying it's Packers week time
- 1:51to bear down.
- 1:52You know, it, um, man, I am,
- 1:56this is the first time Packers week in
- 2:00a long time has mattered.
- 2:03And the reason it matters is because the
- 2:05bears are holding up their end of the
- 2:06bargain.
- 2:07And, uh,
- 2:10I am so stoked.
- 2:12We've got the late afternoon window on
- 2:14Sunday.
- 2:17So excited about that.
- 2:20It's the game of the week.
- 2:21Bears-Packers in Lambeau.
- 2:24Um,
- 2:25of course I'm nervous as a bears fan.
- 2:28I can never just depend on them to
- 2:32do what they're supposed to do.
- 2:34Um,
- 2:34even though we're having a great season,
- 2:36I am just really freaking nervous about
- 2:39this week.
- 2:40Um, so anyway, got that going on.
- 2:46Uh, Mike DeVito says all rain by me.
- 2:49I would have preferred snow.
- 2:51Um,
- 2:56WFH is the dream.
- 3:00I do not know what WFH is.
- 3:03Sometimes I feel like I'm so out of
- 3:05it.
- 3:07Mike DeVito says, F the Bears, go Birds.
- 3:12If you're talking about the Eagles, man,
- 3:13I think we made our statement.
- 3:20So,
- 3:30Why would I tune into a Seve or
- 3:33Hiller YouTube?
- 3:35It's fitness ads.
- 3:36The Clydesdale lunch is false fingernails,
- 3:39eyelashes, or perfume.
- 3:44I don't know, man.
- 3:45I don't know.
- 3:49Work from home.
- 3:51Work from home.
- 3:52Yes.
- 3:53Work from home is the dream.
- 3:55Yes, yes, yes.
- 3:57eric mackie says all right all right all
- 3:59right uh twelve inches of snow last
- 4:01weekend uh jody up in new york area
- 4:11uh no snow just rain here on the
- 4:13east coast connecticut connecticut not new

- 4:25we suck
- 4:26Yeah, I don't know if you suck.
- 4:28I mean,
- 4:28the defense is supposed to be great.
- 4:30I just,
- 4:31I think for the first time in a
- 4:33long time,
- 4:33the Bears have a great offensive line.
- 4:40So, what is up, Cat?
- 4:44I miss you.
- 4:45I miss you.
- 4:50Joseph Ramirez says, DC is getting rain,
- 4:52maybe snow later tonight.

- 6:19conditions in Green Bay, too.
- 6:21So that run game is going to eat
- 6:22and the secondary is going to feast on
- 6:25loves a fifty fifty balls.
- 6:26Man.
- 6:28I hope so.
- 6:29I don't want to get in the weeds
- 6:30on the bears.
- 6:30I mean,
- 6:30that's not technically what we talk about
- 6:32here, but.
- 6:37Oh, my gosh.
- 6:39Wright is just killing it at corner.
- 6:43Six foot four.
- 6:45He is the only corner I've seen lately
- 6:47who can high point a ball like a
- 6:50wide receiver.
- 6:51And the catches he is making to make
- 6:53interceptions is just crazy.
- 6:56Just crazy.
- 6:59So anyway,
- 6:59I did want to quickly talk about Penn
- 7:01State and Joseph Ramirez is on here.
- 7:03So I want to get his quick take.
- 7:07It's rumored that Penn State is going to
- 7:09sign the coach from BYU.
- 7:15He is not signing a deal until he's
- 7:17done with the Big Twelve Championship.
- 7:19That is not the big splash I was
- 7:21hoping for as a Penn State fan.
- 7:23I was really hoping for Brian Dayball.
- 7:26I know he didn't do great with the
- 7:27Giants,
- 7:27but he was a Nick Saban disciple as
- 7:29an offense coordinator with Alabama.
- 7:32He did great as an offensive coordinator
- 7:34with the Buffalo Bills.
- 7:36I was hoping that's who Penn State would
- 7:38go after.
- 7:39Nick Saban said he was a great recruiter,
- 7:42and instead we're going after this BYU
- 7:44coach that I don't know, honestly,
- 7:45a lot about,
- 7:46and it just doesn't seem like the big
- 7:48splash that we need at Penn State.
- 7:58Did I see the new Ben Johnson Chicago
- 8:00CHGO shirts?
- 8:01I did.
- 8:02I did.
- 8:03I was watching that yesterday when they
- 8:04announced it.
- 8:07It's really cool.
- 8:11Bears fans finally can talk smack.
- 8:13That is true.
- 8:14It has been a while.
- 8:17I don't want Brian Kelly ever at Penn
- 8:19State.
- 8:25Ken Walters,
- 8:25anyone can do great with Josh Allen.
- 8:27Josh Allen came into the league.
- 8:28He was not great, dude.
- 8:30He was a turnover machine.
- 8:32He was not good.
- 8:33He had to be developed.
- 8:35And Brian Dayball was the one who
- 8:36developed him.
- 8:38So,
- 8:40You're not going to learn enough at
- 8:42Wyoming to come into the NFL and just
- 8:46be great.
- 8:49Dayball deserves some credit for that.
- 8:54Ramirez says it could be worse.
- 8:56They could have gone after Lane Kiffin.
- 8:57I would have loved Lane Kiffin.
- 8:59Lane Kiffin wins.
- 9:03He is a great coach.
- 9:05He's quirky.
- 9:06He's weird.
- 9:07Fine.
- 9:08He wins.
- 9:12uh i i don't want him either um
- 9:17andrew i'm good all right so the big
- 9:22thing for the day is i got my
- 9:25email today that my crossfit level one is
- 9:27due to expire at the end of the
- 9:29month this is so i've had it for
- 9:34ten years i got my first crossfit level
- 9:38one in person in twenty fifteen
- 9:42in July, June or July of twenty fifteen.
- 9:46And.
- 9:47And I and I did it in person
- 9:51at Rogue here in Columbus,
- 9:54had that coached,
- 9:56went through a coaching mentorship,
- 9:59coached for a few years and became a
- 10:02judge because of it.
- 10:03A lot of things like that.
- 10:06Then in twenty twenty,
- 10:07it was due to expire.
- 10:08I was scheduled to do it a level
- 10:10two in Cookville at Mayhem because of
- 10:15covid.
- 10:15It kept getting canceled and canceled.
- 10:17And during that time,
- 10:18they actually extended my level one for
- 10:22six months.
- 10:24So it got to a point where they
- 10:27weren't going to extend it anymore.
- 10:28I couldn't get anything scheduled.
- 10:30So I just did the online L one
- 10:33to get it and keep it in good
- 10:36standing.
- 10:37So I did the online L one in
- 10:41and then it went through the end of
- 10:43this year, five more years.
- 10:46And so now it is expiring at the
- 10:49end of the month and I don't really
- 10:52know what to do.
- 10:53And the reason I don't know what to
- 10:54do,
- 10:55and I'm asking you what you guys think
- 10:58is I, I don't coach anymore.
- 11:03I don't judge anymore.
- 11:05there's no requirement to have an L one
- 11:07to be a podcaster or to be a
- 11:10media member.
- 11:12And so my, my thought is like,
- 11:14I've done it twice.
- 11:15I have the knowledge from doing the L
- 11:19one.
- 11:20Why,
- 11:21why would I need to move on and
- 11:24get, so Claire saying,
- 11:28go get your level two,
- 11:30but I'm not coaching like,
- 11:31and it's really hands-on coaching, right?
- 11:34And I don't think I'm ever going to
- 11:36go back to coaching.
- 11:41So I don't know.
- 11:43I mean, it's a thousand dollars, isn't it,
- 11:45still?
- 11:53I don't know.
- 11:54It's such a huge investment.
- 11:59I don't make a ton of money with
- 12:01what I do, and I don't know.
- 12:06Um, there's,
- 12:07there's really mixed reaction here.
- 12:09I understand if you're not coaching or
- 12:10judging, I don't see a need for it.
- 12:12It's great to get it once for the
- 12:14knowledge.
- 12:14If you're not using it for coaching, um,
- 12:18you have an FOG cred,
- 12:19you don't need it.
- 12:21Wow.
- 12:21Thank you.
- 12:22Um,
- 12:23Claire says great experience makes you
- 12:24even better media.
- 12:27I've done the L one twice.
- 12:29I've done it both ways that it's
- 12:30available.
- 12:31I have that experience of going through
- 12:33that.
- 12:35but my understanding is the L two is
- 12:36more like coaching cues and, um, and,
- 12:42and how to do like tactile coaching cues,
- 12:44how to do verbal tactile,
- 12:46verbal coaching cues, um,
- 12:48things of that nature.
- 12:49I don't know what that gives me.
- 12:52Um, I just,
- 12:53I just don't Meredith asks if I could
- 12:57do another online extension,
- 12:59I could do the online version,
- 13:00but now it only extends you for three
- 13:02years.
- 13:03Um,
- 13:03Back when I did it in twenty twenty,
- 13:05it was a five year extension.
- 13:07Now the online version only gives you
- 13:09three.
- 13:10So you're investing in a three year
- 13:14credential instead of a five year.
- 13:18Joseph,
- 13:18I'm finally getting my one at the end
- 13:20of February.
- 13:21I highly recommend the one.
- 13:22I mean,
- 13:22if you're if you've never done it,
- 13:25I think everybody should do it.
- 13:27It's such a great learning experience.
- 13:38Why?
- 13:38Because you can,
- 13:39and who knows what retirement life will
- 13:40be.
- 13:42I mean,
- 13:42I could always go back and get,
- 13:43I could get another L one at some
- 13:46point if I want to go back to,
- 13:50uh, um,
- 13:59the call requests that you please stop
- 14:00asking questions and just support CrossFit
- 14:03by giving them your money.
- 14:11we the collective had decided yeah
- 14:16expensive if you're not using it if I
- 14:19was coaching like I would jump back in
- 14:21at the chance or or even if I
- 14:23was still going to judge for a while
- 14:31Lita says I just let it expire I
- 14:33agree with Andrew
- 14:35Cat,
- 14:36I'm afraid I'll have to let my L-three
- 14:37go.
- 14:38Man,
- 14:39isn't that just continuing education
- 14:41credits?
- 14:47If I was up as far as an
- 14:48L-three,
- 14:48I'm just not sure I would let that
- 14:50go.
- 14:51Because that's a whole,
- 14:52like I'm at the first rung of the
- 14:54ladder.
- 14:54If I need to go back and get
- 14:55the first rung again,
- 14:57I can go back and do that.
- 14:59Cat,
- 14:59you're at the third rung of the ladder.
- 15:01I don't know if I would go back
- 15:02and start over on that.
- 15:08Corey says, once he gets his L-two,
- 15:10that's as far as he's going.
- 15:13Joey Perez,
- 15:14only reason at this point would be to
- 15:16make content out of it,
- 15:17interview other folks, getting it,
- 15:18et cetera.
- 15:20Yeah.
- 15:25Andrew said,
- 15:26don't get the L-two unless you're actively
- 15:27coaching.
- 15:33Uh, Claire,
- 15:34I did my L two is zero coaching
- 15:35experience and no hopes to coach.
- 15:37That being said,
- 15:38I was making great money and I hear
- 15:40your financial consideration.
- 15:46Yeah.
- 15:47I mean, that's what I, Amanda,
- 15:48that's exactly what I heard.
- 15:49It is.
- 15:50It's coaching cues and class management
- 15:52and I'm not coaching a class anymore.
- 15:54I mean, there's days I miss it,
- 15:56but I really liked the media side so
- 15:58much better.
- 16:12Wayne Short, take the thousand dollars,
- 16:13put it towards your business,
- 16:14a wider reach than you could ever get
- 16:16with coaching locally.
- 16:18Yeah.
- 16:20I think that's where I'm leaning.
- 16:28Oh,
- 16:28so the level three is about a thousand
- 16:29dollars worth of continuing education
- 16:31credits and seven hundred and fifty hours
- 16:33of CrossFit coaching.
- 16:35Whoo.
- 16:37I mean,
- 16:37that's pretty much full time coaching or
- 16:39full part time coaching.
- 16:44Mike DeVito,
- 16:45the level two will deepen your
- 16:46understanding, but yes,
- 16:47it would be more geared towards coaching.
- 16:49Just do the online one and reaccess in
- 16:52a year, reassess in a year or two.
- 17:09Linda, it's a no for me, dog.
- 17:16Seeing that's an L-I,
- 17:17you can let it go and always go
- 17:19back.
- 17:19If it was an L-II expiring,
- 17:21then it's a bigger question.
- 17:22I think you're right, Amanda.
- 17:23I think because I can always go back
- 17:27and get the L-I again at any point
- 17:29in time if I feel the need to
- 17:32go back to coaching or any of those
- 17:34kinds of things.
- 17:38I think that's where I'm leaning.
- 17:40the funny thing is you know there were
- 17:41these we had that judging incident over
- 17:44the summer where someone's l-one expired
- 17:48and they weren't officially an official
- 17:50judge and it almost cost people at mayhem
- 17:54some some spots to the games um the
- 18:00amount of times that crossfit has emailed
- 18:04me telling me that my l-one is expiring
- 18:07was a lot
- 18:09I mean, it was a lot.
- 18:11I know it's expiring.
- 18:14Unless I'm completely ignoring my emails,
- 18:17I know that it is expiring.
- 18:21And I want to make that clear from
- 18:22what happened this year when they said,
- 18:25well, I just didn't know.
- 18:26I just didn't know.
- 18:28There's no way you couldn't know if you're
- 18:30paying attention to your emails at all.
- 18:47Claire says the experience is worth it.
- 18:49If you have the means in that season
- 18:51of life,
- 18:52it's so special to experience CrossFit
- 18:54training.
- 18:56I, I really enjoy the classes.
- 18:58I enjoy going and doing them.
- 19:01But I am in a weird season of
- 19:02life.
- 19:02Like my daughter has just left home,
- 19:06but she's really just starting out and
- 19:08she's needed more support than,
- 19:11than I think my wife and I really
- 19:13anticipated.
- 19:14And so I,
- 19:16that part of our lives is when you
- 19:20think it's over, it's just,
- 19:21it feels like it's just beginning all over
- 19:23again in the support for her and trying
- 19:27to get her feet on the ground and
- 19:29really get into it.
- 19:31She has a great job.
- 19:32She's doing great things.
- 19:34It's just,
- 19:35there's so many startup costs with a big
- 19:38move and a, and a big job.
- 19:41Um,
- 19:43I think that just hit me.
- 19:44And the thousand dollars right now just
- 19:46seems like a stretch.
- 19:56Like people that let their vehicle
- 19:58registrations expire and don't know.
- 20:01Yeah.
- 20:02I actually have a friend who's let it
- 20:03happen a couple of times, but in Ohio,
- 20:06if you lease a car,
- 20:08Your expiration date is the date of the
- 20:12lease, not your birthday.
- 20:14If you own a car,
- 20:15your registration date is based on your
- 20:17birthday.
- 20:18And so that,
- 20:19that can get a little bit confusing.
- 20:21So that is the one like exception I'll
- 20:24give to that.
- 20:29The other thing I want to talk about
- 20:30before I have to get back to work
- 20:32is if you guys did not see Hiller's
- 20:36video yesterday on his version of the WFP
- 20:41season,
- 20:50I don't know if there's enough flowers for
- 20:52me to throw at what Hiller came up
- 20:55with.
- 20:57I don't want to just be gaga and
- 20:59be like a sycophant about the whole thing,
- 21:04but I truly am.
- 21:06What he came up with,
- 21:09looking at it from the fact of fun
- 21:12to watch, get outside eyeballs on it,
- 21:18and come up with something that is so
- 21:21well-rounded over a season,
- 21:24and to include all of that,
- 21:26was nothing short of genius.
- 21:32Nothing short of genius.
- 21:33I agree, Joseph.
- 21:35I agree.
- 21:36it Hiller's borderline genius to bring in,
- 21:40to have the concept,
- 21:42to bring in athletes from other sports and
- 21:45have like a lane,
- 21:47for them to go head to head with
- 21:48the CrossFit athletes,
- 21:50just to get eyeballs on,
- 21:52to see how like this NFL person would
- 21:55compete against these people or how the
- 21:58CrossFitters would fare against an NFL
- 22:00athlete.
- 22:01Like that is so cool to me.
- 22:06To take aspects from other sports and plop
- 22:10them into the middle of this programming
- 22:15for across three events was in my I've
- 22:22been in CrossFit since twenty eleven.
- 22:25I have been a super fan of the
- 22:28sport ever since.
- 22:32And I cannot believe that nobody has come
- 22:35close to what Hiller has done in what
- 22:39he said was an hour.
- 22:44I am just completely blown away.
- 22:46to to first of all go into the
- 22:49fact with hey we're the wfp and this
- 22:52is this is the piece that's probably
- 22:54missing in real life is we're going to
- 22:57partner with crossfit enough that we can
- 22:59use the crossfit name we can make homages
- 23:02to the crossfit world by starting off with
- 23:05murph and by using the name crossfit that
- 23:09is probably the one bridge
- 23:12that isn't there to make it a reality.
- 23:20But then to have a complete
- 23:21gymnastics-style event with an NFL player
- 23:27doing one of the events with the people
- 23:31is brilliant.
- 23:33And to have max gymnastics as a part
- 23:37of that
- 23:38And everybody knows that going in.
- 23:40And then to have the power output event
- 23:44second with a straight powerlifting meet
- 23:47that people can compare to what is
- 23:50happening in the real world of
- 23:51powerlifting to what the CrossFitters are
- 23:55doing.
- 23:58And then to have this, and in that,
- 24:02to do the Liver King,
- 24:05what the hell is the name of that
- 24:07workout?
- 24:08Um, the,
- 24:12where you do the sled drag with the
- 24:14kettlebells and the, and the,
- 24:16and the weight vest, the barbarian.
- 24:19Thank you, Kenneth.
- 24:20And to do the barbarian and then invite
- 24:22the liver King,
- 24:24which people will watch just to see the
- 24:27train wreck that may happen or may not
- 24:30happen.
- 24:31Right.
- 24:31It,
- 24:32it's going to bring eyeballs to the show.
- 24:35and you could bring power lifters into to
- 24:38show what is possible with a power lifter
- 24:41and then how the CrossFitters attack the
- 24:43same thing.
- 24:44And then to go to the last event
- 24:47and having like an NFL combine piece with
- 24:52the,
- 24:52the max bench press at two twenty five
- 24:55to have,
- 24:56I can't remember the other pieces of it,
- 24:58like the four meter run and the, um,
- 25:03I think there was some kind of jump
- 25:05to that just for pure athleticism and all
- 25:09of that to be included in that.
- 25:11And then along the way,
- 25:14my favorite apparatus to ever be at the
- 25:16CrossFit Games is the snail.
- 25:19And to incorporate the snail into an event
- 25:22would be so much fun.
- 25:26Yeah, it was max vertical.
- 25:28yeah so it's like an nfl comp by
- 25:30max vertical four meter run and mac max
- 25:33bench press with the all measurables that
- 25:39you can put up against other athletes in
- 25:41other sports to see where the crossfitters
- 25:45kind of live and you could have some
- 25:48of those athletes come in and do those
- 25:51events just to show what the like tip
- 25:53of the spear that specialize in those
- 25:56areas can do
- 25:58To me,
- 26:00I hope and pray that people are watching
- 26:04what Hiller put out and are looking at
- 26:06it going,
- 26:07that is ingenious and that needs to be
- 26:11done at some point.
- 26:14Someone needs to take that template and
- 26:19run with it.
- 26:22Completely run with it.
- 26:24Oh,
- 26:24and the High Rocks event in the middle
- 26:25of the third event.
- 26:27And
- 26:28showing what high rocks can be done with
- 26:32standards and maybe have some of the best
- 26:35high rocks people come in and run in
- 26:38lane eleven against the CrossFitters.
- 26:42Instead of like saying, hey,
- 26:43we reject you high rocks.
- 26:46Hey, come on in.
- 26:47Let's see what you can do against our
- 26:48athletes.
- 26:50We're going to set up the course just
- 26:51like you do.
- 26:52We're going to do all the same things
- 26:54that you do.
- 26:55Let's see how you fare against us.
- 27:00That was the, I mean,
- 27:04I really like when he goes and spends
- 27:06time with an athlete.
- 27:09I think that he does a better job
- 27:11of that than anybody else in the space.
- 27:14But other than that,
- 27:15this has been the best piece of work
- 27:17that I think he's put out all year.
- 27:23all year for sure.
- 27:25And the thought behind it,
- 27:27the reasoning behind it was all the
- 27:30different aspects that need to be
- 27:32considered.
- 27:33How do we get eyeballs on this?
- 27:35How do we get spectators to show up?
- 27:37How do we get interest?
- 27:38How do we make it go viral?
- 27:41And,
- 27:42and that he's even thinking about how
- 27:44things could be clipped to make reels
- 27:48before the event even happens.
- 27:49Yeah.
- 27:51Like those like we talk about Dave Castro
- 27:55and the way that he looks at an
- 27:56event and he always tells the story really
- 27:59well for people at the event or maybe
- 28:02even people at or watching on a stream.
- 28:06But I don't think Castro has ever gone
- 28:08to the point of like,
- 28:09how can this become a viral clip?
- 28:13What part of this can we clip off
- 28:15to put out onto social media to get
- 28:18people to come watch?
- 28:20That's a step further than anybody else
- 28:22has ever gone in the thought process of
- 28:25creating an event.
- 28:29Honest to God,
- 28:30if I'm Will Morad and I'm Jackson Terry,
- 28:33I am hiring Hiller tomorrow to put
- 28:36together this template and to make this
- 28:38thing next year's event.
- 28:40Immediately.
- 28:42Immediately.
- 28:45It'll never happen.
- 28:46It'll never happen because egos will get
- 28:48in the way and people think they can
- 28:50do things better.
- 28:51But when you look at this,
- 28:53at the face value, it is the most,
- 28:57it is the only event that I would
- 28:59say could compete with the CrossFit Games.
- 29:04The only thing it doesn't have is the
- 29:06glory that the CrossFit Games has
- 29:08established.
- 29:10The meaning behind it,
- 29:12the meaning of the win.
- 29:14But the CrossFit Games can be that.
- 29:16They can be find the fittest.
- 29:18This can be let's find the most
- 29:21entertaining tour event that we can put
- 29:25together.
- 29:31Did Hiller put out a Choi video,
- 29:36Shung Young Choi video?
- 29:38He did not.
- 29:39He did a Korean video and she was
- 29:41in it.
- 29:42I think this Chung Young Choi is still
- 29:44coming.
- 29:54Adding Tyson event was cool also.
- 29:56Yeah.
- 29:57I didn't want to say specifically Tyson
- 29:58because I'm a Bears fan.
- 29:59I didn't want to say it.
- 30:00Think like I was leaning.
- 30:02And that event has been done and it's
- 30:03been battle tested and proven that it can
- 30:06be done with high level CrossFitters going
- 30:09against an NFL athlete.
- 30:11It could be any NFL athlete.
- 30:13The NFL is so big.
- 30:15Getting any of them to come be in
- 30:16lane.
- 30:17Eleven is awesome.
- 30:20And if it has to be Tyson Bajan,
- 30:22it can be Tyson Bajan.
- 30:24That's cool.
- 30:42Mr.
- 30:42B studied this and talked about the
- 30:44science of going viral.
- 30:47That's what most storytellers do.
- 30:49They plan and envision.
- 30:50They normally have vision boards.
- 30:53I think that's what I'm saying, Jonathan,
- 30:56is that Killer is thinking about all of
- 30:58the different aspects around this.
- 31:02with a vision that hasn't been done
- 31:03before.
- 31:05And he wrote it all out on a
- 31:06whiteboard.
- 31:07And I think that's where it kind of
- 31:09all came is that he put it down
- 31:12in writing.
- 31:13He looked at it as a whole.
- 31:15And I think that's where the WFP probably
- 31:16made a misstep is they didn't look at
- 31:19their season as a whole.
- 31:21They were building it as it went.
- 31:24And I don't think they had all three
- 31:26tour stops figured out before the season
- 31:29started.
- 31:30And if you're having a tour stop league
- 31:34with a beginning and an end that is
- 31:36season long,
- 31:37you need to create that as one massive
- 31:41creation.
- 31:43And that's what Hiller did.
- 31:45He didn't look at it as, hey,
- 31:46here's tour stop one.
- 31:49We'll get that done.
- 31:50We'll get it out of the way.
- 31:51Now we'll build tour stop two looking back
- 31:54at tour stop one.
- 31:57Get that done.
- 31:58Now we'll build tour stop three looking
- 32:00back at the previous two.
- 32:04What Hiller did is throw it all up
- 32:06on one whiteboard from start to finish and
- 32:10said, this is our season,
- 32:12this is how we build it,
- 32:14and looking at it all in its entirety
- 32:17throughout the build instead of piece by
- 32:22piece.
- 32:25If you have not seen the video,
- 32:26you need to go see it.
- 32:28And I'm telling you,
- 32:29somebody needs to jump on this and make
- 32:31it an event.
- 32:35It gave me hope with the correct thought
- 32:39process.
- 32:40It's a way to bring eyeballs to the
- 32:42sport that I love.
- 32:44It's a way to bring eyeballs to this
- 32:48methodology that I love.
- 32:52And done in the right way,
- 32:53it could be hugely successful.
- 33:04train all of that is that's how the
- 33:06programming should have been done.
- 33:08One hundred percent, without a doubt,
- 33:11exactly the way it should have been done.
- 33:17They don't have to hire Hiller.
- 33:18He already gave them the blueprint.
- 33:21But they'd be missing out on that vision
- 33:24of how to make this thing viral.
- 33:27That's the that's the peace grant.
- 33:29That's where like they instead of half
- 33:34assing it,
- 33:35hire the man and let him show you
- 33:38where it can be clipped.
- 33:39Let him use the video footage to put
- 33:42clips out.
- 33:44In the video himself,
- 33:45he showed how before his visit to Korea
- 33:48with Sean Young Choi,
- 33:50she had less than I think it was
- 33:53like forty thousand subscribers on
- 33:56Instagram.
- 33:57And now she's over one hundred thousand.
- 33:59Like he knows what he's talking about when
- 34:03it comes to getting viral views.
- 34:06It's not just the template.
- 34:08It's not just the workouts.
- 34:10It's all the pieces combined that you have
- 34:12to have a vision for as you're going
- 34:14through the process.
- 34:19Eric Mackey,
- 34:20I'd like to see get with the programming
- 34:21or JR review of Hiller's programmed
- 34:24events.
- 34:26I would love for them to grab this
- 34:28and do like a get with the programming
- 34:31or a shut up and scribble episode going
- 34:35through this and getting their thoughts on
- 34:37what they think of Hiller's event.
- 34:46There's no way they're going to listen to
- 34:47him.
- 34:48I don't think they will either.
- 34:49I think their ego will get involved and
- 34:51I don't think they'll listen to him,
- 34:53but it doesn't mean they should,
- 34:54shouldn't.
- 35:08I wanted a forty yard dash.
- 35:09I think he went four hundred meter run
- 35:11because.
- 35:16Four hundred meter run is more fitness
- 35:18based.
- 35:19Forty yard dashes.
- 35:23It's I don't know.
- 35:24It's more of a. I don't know.
- 35:29It's hard to.
- 35:30I just think the four hundred meter run
- 35:32is a better test.
- 35:34than the forty forty yard dash.
- 35:41So I think that's I get why he
- 35:43did that.
- 35:44And if you slip it to start,
- 35:46you're screwed.
- 35:48It's just there's no room wiggle room at
- 35:51all for error in a forty yard dash.
- 35:54None.
- 36:01And I think that the forty-yard dash is
- 36:03harder on the body as a whole.
- 36:09If you are not acclimated to sprinting,
- 36:12you can pull hamstrings,
- 36:14you can tear Achilles,
- 36:16you can do a lot of things in
- 36:18a sprint that would not happen in a
- 36:23four hundred meter run.
- 36:29I just don't think CrossFit bodies are
- 36:31acclimated to sprinting so again if you
- 36:39haven't seen that please go check it out
- 36:41and i would love to see some people
- 36:43um uh dissect it like i get with
- 36:48the programming or shut up and scribble
- 36:50and hear their thoughts on it too because
- 36:52i was totally geeking out yesterday uh
- 36:55watching that video um
- 36:59and just want someone to take it on
- 37:01and, uh, make it happen.
- 37:06So,
- 37:07and it's the best suggestion I've heard,
- 37:09uh, since my reality show take,
- 37:13this may be better than the reality show.
- 37:18I'm going to finish up with this.
- 37:19Um, as you guys all know,
- 37:21if you've been listening to the show,
- 37:22I'm a big Taylor Sheridan fan,
- 37:25been watching land man this season.
- 37:29that show has the best cast on TV
- 37:32today um if that doesn't win the Emmy
- 37:36this year I'm gonna be stunned there's a
- 37:41point in this season and I'm gonna try
- 37:42to do this without doing spoilers but
- 37:45there's a point in this season where
- 37:48Tommy,
- 37:49who is played by Billy Bob Thornton,
- 37:51and his son Cooper are driving off to
- 37:57Odessa, Texas, I believe,
- 37:59because there's a death in the family.
- 38:02And they're talking about how Tommy was
- 38:07giving advice to his son about not getting
- 38:11into a cycle of violence inside the home.
- 38:16Because he had lived through that himself.
- 38:19And his son says to him, well,
- 38:22you did that, dad.
- 38:24And his dad responds that he didn't break
- 38:28the cycle.
- 38:28He avoided it.
- 38:31And in his mind,
- 38:33he didn't feel like he was a good
- 38:35father.
- 38:37his son basically tells him your best was
- 38:40good enough for me, dad.
- 38:42And it's this moment in this dialogue that
- 38:45is like through the roof.
- 38:46Good.
- 38:47If you're not watching lay a man, it's,
- 38:49it's so good.
- 38:52And that scene is, is so powerful.
- 38:55And, and then in the last episode there,
- 38:59let the end of last season,
- 39:01Andy Garcia comes into, um, into the, the,
- 39:07television show as a drug kingpin who is
- 39:11running this massive drug empire.
- 39:15Turns out he's doing more than that.
- 39:17He's investing in the oil industry in
- 39:19certain ways.
- 39:20He's investing in other things.
- 39:23And there comes this time where at the
- 39:26end of last season,
- 39:27he saves Tommy or Billy Bob Thornton's
- 39:29life.
- 39:32And he says that they're going to be
- 39:33friends.
- 39:34And Billy Bob rejects this immediately.
- 39:38Well, now this season,
- 39:39they're becoming more intertwined because
- 39:41of some scenarios.
- 39:43And they're at a club,
- 39:45and the widow of Jon Hamm,
- 39:47who owns the oil company now,
- 39:50Tommy's wife, played by Allie Lauder,
- 39:54and Andy Garcia's wife are hanging out in
- 39:58this club, and Andy and Tommy.
- 40:00And the wives are getting together so
- 40:02well.
- 40:03And the whole time,
- 40:05there's this stare down between Billy Bob
- 40:08Thornton and Andy Garcia.
- 40:10And Demi Moore plays the widow,
- 40:12by the way.
- 40:13So you have Demi Moore, Andy Garcia,
- 40:15Billy Bob Thornton,
- 40:16Allie Lauder in this club.
- 40:19And the stare downs between Garcia and
- 40:22Billy Bob are like,
- 40:23there's this communication going on
- 40:26between the two of them without saying
- 40:27anything while their wives are over here
- 40:29talking about a completely different
- 40:30subject.
- 40:32And it is...
- 40:34It is completely off the chain good.
- 40:39It got me, as I would say, jazzed.
- 40:45The actors in this show are so damn
- 40:47good.
- 40:48When you can speak dialogue without saying
- 40:50a word, it's so worth watching.
- 40:54Um, highly recommend it.
- 40:56It's on Paramount plus.
- 40:59If you're not watching that show,
- 41:00you should be.
- 41:01Um, and I think season one was great.
- 41:04I think season two is off to a
- 41:06start.
- 41:06That's even better than season one.
- 41:10So that is it.
- 41:12That is it for today.
- 41:13I got to get back to work,
- 41:14but wanted to talk about those things.
- 41:21Eric Mackey,
- 41:22I'm not sure you have many people's
- 41:23attention anymore,
- 41:24but I love the show and live the
- 41:27movie streaming show.
- 41:28Love the movie streaming shows.
- 41:30This is where we're at, Mackey.
- 41:32Eric Mackey,
- 41:33we are in a period where there's not
- 41:36a lot of CrossFit stuff to talk about.
- 41:38Um, that's why we're talking football.
- 41:41So I were talking entertainment and I I've
- 41:44kind of promised it is that's what this
- 41:46show is going to be.
- 41:47We're I'm doing a daily show for forty
- 41:49five minutes.
- 41:50It's whatever's on my mind.
- 41:53And I try to sprinkle in as much
- 41:55CrossFit as I can.
- 41:57But man,
- 41:58it is it is a dead time.
- 42:01And I don't want to talk about the
- 42:02negativity of the WFP every single day.
- 42:05It gets on my own nerves.
- 42:09And so I'm just,
- 42:10these are things that are happening in my
- 42:12life that I want to talk about.
- 42:14And I think they're really, really good.
- 42:18And I know you're not saying anything to
- 42:20be critical.
- 42:25I'm just telling you,
- 42:26that's where my heart is.
- 42:27And that's where I come from is, gosh,
- 42:32there's only so much we can talk about
- 42:34CrossFit.
- 42:35And right now, it's just a dead,
- 42:37dead time.
- 42:44Jonathan Ortega says, it's your show.
- 42:48Talk about everything.
- 42:49We're here.
- 42:50Yeah.
- 42:52Yeah.
- 42:55So, yeah.
- 42:56So that's where we're at.
- 42:57So I recapped Hiller's video.
- 42:59Please go check that out.
- 43:01If you are interested in how an event
- 43:04can be created, thinking so broadly,
- 43:08it is an epic video for that.
- 43:12If you want to just lay back and
- 43:15detox from the real world, watch Landman.
- 43:19It's awesome.
- 43:20Penn State, I think, is making a mistake,
- 43:23and it's Packers week.
- 43:24So that's what we did today.
- 43:26That's what we're going to talk about.
- 43:27And now I've got to get back to
- 43:29work because I've got so many damn
- 43:31meetings today.
- 43:32God, I hate meetings.
- 43:34I hate them.
- 43:36But I've got two more this afternoon.
- 43:38I had two before this.
- 43:41And there we are.
