1:05
so i can i tell you what happened
1:06
while the intro was going i i needed
1:09
to grab a box i hit the wire
1:13
to my earbuds my monitors about ripped my
1:17
ears off the side of my head and
1:21
i had i've bought new ones with a
1:23
longer cord and keep forgetting them
1:26
upstairs
1:28
I've had them for like a week and
1:29
a half.
1:31
You only go live like every day.
1:33
I know.
1:34
It's so ridiculous.
1:37
But my ears still hurt,
1:39
but we're going to push through.
1:40
We're going to push through the pain
1:42
because that's sports.
1:44
But the reason, the reason,
1:46
and don't forget to like and subscribe to
1:48
the channel.
1:48
Yeah.
1:48
What's the girl's name?
1:49
Forgetting her name.
1:51
Sweetie?
1:56
Oh, yeah.
1:57
Well, I was saying that before.
1:58
Kenneth DeLapp always goes,
2:00
because my answer to everything is,
2:03
but that's just sports.
2:04
And so he always puts that in the
2:06
thing.
2:07
So it's become a thing.
2:08
But I need to thank Box Basics.
2:13
They have hooked us up with new shoes
2:17
from Strike Movement.
2:19
And this, the colorway,
2:21
is exclusive to Box Basics.
2:24
And if you were a kid of the
2:26
eighties, like myself,
2:28
they're called the blow pop wave.
2:33
And they are awesome.
2:35
Oh, you got yours.
2:37
They don't ship to Canada.
2:38
So Lex has mine.
2:40
Oh, I haven't mine or not here yet.
2:44
I don't know Columbus.
2:45
We have really good stuff going on,
2:47
but they are.
2:49
And actually like,
2:50
I have to show you this,
2:52
the paper it's wrapped in.
2:55
I know.
2:56
I did see that.
2:59
It is blow pops.
3:02
I got to save the paper.
3:04
Yeah.
3:05
But I was like,
3:05
I pulled these out and Julie was like,
3:07
oh my gosh, those are so cool.
3:11
So now I have something to wear on
3:12
the Fourth of July flag day.
3:16
Well, at first I was like,
3:17
you're sending like a USA one to a
3:19
Canadian here.
3:20
I'm like,
3:21
there's already a lot of tension going on
3:23
between, you know,
3:25
our country and i'm like it's not usa
3:27
it's popsicle it's popsicle it's blow it's
3:30
bomb pops they don't call them bomb pops
3:33
anymore do they i don't remember like i
3:37
think they were rocket pops bomb pops well
3:41
we get the c-fours at the gym and
3:43
it i think it's frozen bombsicle is the
3:46
flavor it is yeah
3:49
yeah but they're awesome huge shout out to
3:52
box basics for that um they they've been
3:56
awesome to us this is the second pair
3:58
of shoes they've sent me nice and so
4:01
i'm really excited about that there it is
4:04
bomb pop and again don't forget to like
4:11
and subscribe to the channel that means so
4:12
much um we already have the question of
4:18
the week
4:19
I was just reading that.
4:20
Question of the week for Jamie.
4:21
Would you rather teach square dancing to a
4:23
group of eighth grade students or CrossFit
4:26
to gym bros that have not played sports
4:29
since high school?
4:30
Come on.
4:31
Teach square dancing.
4:32
Come on.
4:32
I want to see that.
4:35
I actually took swing dancing in college.
4:39
Not square dancing,
4:40
but probably CrossFit to gym bros.
4:44
I'm a terrible dancer.
4:45
Terrible.
4:48
it's it's i think i don't know man
4:53
because neither one are going to be
4:54
receptive to your coaching yes right
4:57
teenagers are not good when you're
4:59
teaching them square dancing and gym bros
5:03
do not want to be told how to
5:04
lift or do athletics
5:09
Or the gym bros don't want to do
5:11
CrossFit.
5:12
They just want to do bicep curls and
5:15
bench press.
5:16
Yeah, reverse curl.
5:18
Like no compound movements at all.
5:21
It's like, oh,
5:22
when are we going to work our arms?
5:24
And I'm like, we are not in isolation.
5:31
Larry says,
5:31
I'll ask my coach how bad this gym
5:33
bro is.
5:35
You're probably terrible, Larry.
5:38
You're probably like too much running.
5:41
Can we just bench for.
5:42
Uh, Tessa,
5:47
my mom made me compete in square dancing
5:50
in third grade with gauchos on.
5:54
It didn't happen if we don't see pictures.
6:03
Uh, I made the conversion it's possible.
6:06
From Jim Bro to CrossFitter.
6:07
Oh, gotcha.
6:09
Possible for sure.
6:12
Rare.
6:16
Oh, my gosh.
6:20
Oh, that's incredible.
6:24
Oh, my gosh.
6:27
Those almost look like the cowboy boots
6:29
that I have.
6:29
I love when Scott comes up with the
6:31
he-he laugh.
6:34
That's when you know it's genuine.
6:36
Yeah.
6:37
When I go to the high-pitched Burt
6:39
Reynolds laugh, it's...
6:43
And me and Fergie are the only ones
6:44
who know who Burt Reynolds is, but...
6:48
Anyway.
6:50
Oh, that was good.
6:51
That was priceless.
6:55
It made me lose track of even where
6:57
the hell we were, which isn't important.
7:01
Um...
7:02
I was going to say I was a
7:03
gym bro because, like,
7:05
I lifted a lot in high school.
7:07
But I had to, like,
7:08
switch it up depending on swimming and
7:09
football.
7:10
Like,
7:11
it was two different training
7:12
methodologies that I would bounce back and
7:15
forth between, like, every season.
7:18
So I think – so I was pretty
7:21
quick to adapt to CrossFit.
7:23
I just was –
7:25
I tried to muscle everything when I first
7:27
started CrossFit,
7:29
and I had to learn to relax and
7:31
just let the technique do it.
7:33
And that was the hardest step.
7:40
But, damn,
7:44
I'm not sure how I feel about those.
7:46
The cowboy boots or the whole picture?
7:50
I love my cowboy boots.
7:54
I only have one pair of cowboy boots,
7:56
and that was from Rogue in,
7:58
I think it was, like,
7:58
twenty-twenty-one or twenty-twenty-two
8:01
when they were in Texas.
8:02
Yeah.
8:02
And they've just been, like,
8:03
in my closet with the belt buckle.
8:06
I'm, like,
8:07
anxious to see what we get this year
8:09
for, like, our little...
8:10
Because they always have a theme, like,
8:11
every year.
8:12
Baseball.
8:14
Golf.
8:15
Yeah.
8:16
Yeah.
8:18
We're going to talk about that in a
8:19
second,
8:19
but we always do the catch-up to start.
8:22
And I would be remiss to not talk
8:25
about Tyson Bajent, the CrossFit kid,
8:28
getting what we thought was a start this
8:31
year,
8:32
but technically he didn't get a start.
8:36
And if you didn't see it,
8:38
it's so Ben Johnson,
8:40
and it's why I love him as a
8:41
coach.
8:43
Everybody was trolling him on who his
8:45
starting quarterback was going to be,
8:47
all this kind of stuff.
8:49
So he put Case Keenum out on the
8:51
first play of the game, pulled him,
8:55
and Tyson played the rest of the game.
8:56
Got it.
8:56
Was it just like a trickery thing?
9:01
I think it was just,
9:02
you guys all think you know what I'm
9:04
going to do,
9:05
so I'm going to show you that you
9:07
don't always know what I'm going to do.
9:10
And then after the game,
9:11
he called it Case's ceremonial first
9:13
pitch.
9:13
Did they win?
9:17
They did.
9:18
How did he play?
9:20
Tyson went and this is off memory.
9:23
So I'm probably off a little bit like
9:25
twenty four of thirty two for two sixty
9:28
eight.
9:28
That's good.
9:30
Seventy two percent completion rate.
9:33
He did throw a pick.
9:35
And when they asked him about it in
9:36
the press conference,
9:37
he beat himself up over it because that's
9:40
what Tyson does.
9:42
But he looked great.
9:44
He led the team down.
9:45
They should have scored more.
9:48
Two DeAndre Swift touchdowns were called
9:51
back saying he didn't cross the plane.
9:57
They were initially called touchdowns on
9:59
the field.
10:00
I don't know what video evidence they saw
10:03
that was conclusive enough to pull those
10:06
back, but it is what it is.
10:09
They still won pretty big because their
10:12
defense only gave up like a hundred and
10:13
fifty yards the whole game.
10:17
Yeah,
10:17
I wanted to watch that game and could
10:19
not get it on any.
10:22
I would have had to buy the Sunday
10:24
ticket on YouTube TV,
10:26
and I'm not doing that.
10:28
I'm working on something for you.
10:29
I'm trying.
10:29
I know.
10:30
I know.
10:32
I was trying to follow along on my
10:34
phone, play by play.
10:35
I could see he was playing,
10:36
but I was at the gym.
10:37
I'm like, this is way too hard.
10:38
I actually need to do stuff.
10:40
I got what I could.
10:42
He had some nice touches on his pass.
10:47
The one thing that he doesn't have that
10:49
Caleb Williams does...
10:51
Caleb Williams is a phenomenal athlete,
10:53
but he has a rocket arm.
10:55
Tyson doesn't have the rocket arm.
10:57
So it's all got to be anticipation and
11:00
accuracy.
11:01
And so it just looks different, right?
11:05
If you watch every bear snap,
11:07
it just looks different.
11:08
But...
11:10
He got some really big chunk plays.
11:12
He got Roma Dunzey involved.
11:13
He got Colston Loveland involved,
11:16
which they have not been involved so far
11:18
this season.
11:19
So that was awesome.
11:20
And I think he's going to start next
11:22
week when I go to Green Bay.
11:23
Yay.
11:24
That is so exciting.
11:26
Do you know if like what the timeline
11:29
is for Caleb?
11:30
Like have they said for his hamstring four
11:32
to six weeks or.
11:34
So they said three to four,
11:36
it's a grade two, but,
11:38
but here's my thing.
11:39
Like if the backups are winning,
11:42
why push them?
11:44
Why not let that thing heal as much
11:46
as possible?
11:48
Because you need Caleb like down the,
11:50
down the stretch.
11:54
And if he re-aggravates that,
11:56
it's going to be worse.
12:00
Which is easy to do.
12:01
If it's not fully, fully healed,
12:03
then you're going out for a sprint.
12:06
Yeah.
12:07
And that's his game.
12:08
His game is using his legs a lot.
12:13
But yeah,
12:14
all three of our quarterbacks have not
12:17
technically started,
12:18
but they all have started.
12:19
And they've all won.
12:21
Yeah.
12:22
And so that's pretty cool.
12:24
The Bears,
12:25
for a team that has never had a
12:26
quarterback,
12:27
to have three is pretty amazing.
12:32
So that was the best of times.
12:35
And we're proud of Tyson.
12:38
And he was awesome at the mic at
12:40
the press conference after.
12:42
I'll finish with this.
12:45
One of the reporters asked him what it
12:48
felt like when the stadium played West
12:52
Virginia over the loudspeakers.
12:54
And Tyson said,
12:55
the name of the song isn't West Virginia.
12:58
However, I know what you're talking about.
13:00
And it was pretty cool because,
13:03
and then he said,
13:04
I told you guys to stop asking me
13:06
about my hometown because I'm going to cry
13:09
and you need to stop it.
13:12
Because the people that surrounded me when
13:15
I was growing up and the people that
13:16
surround me now are why I'm doing what
13:19
I'm doing today.
13:20
And every time I think about Martinsburg,
13:22
West Virginia,
13:24
I think about all those people and it
13:26
makes me want to tear up.
13:28
He's great in interviews though.
13:29
He's got a good personality.
13:32
It's so funny.
13:33
Cause like on off days,
13:34
he's so funny and like kind of goofy,
13:38
but on game days it is like locked
13:40
in and it's a completely different style
13:43
of interview, but he is great.
13:47
He's great on the mic.
13:49
Um, I mean,
13:51
he had his dad on the mic for
13:53
so long.
13:53
So I feel like it's gotta,
13:54
it's gotta run the family.
13:57
And it was his dad's fiftieth birthday
13:59
today.
13:59
Oh, wow.
14:00
So he shouted out the beast on at
14:03
the press conference.
14:07
He said he actually lost money in tickets
14:09
for this game.
14:12
He bought so many tickets for his family
14:14
and friends.
14:14
Yeah.
14:16
I mean, when you know you're playing,
14:17
yeah, you want to get your crowd there.
14:19
Yeah.
14:20
Yeah.
14:24
Yeah.
14:26
John George, I didn't see Hiller's clip.
14:28
I actually watched all of his.
14:32
If people have not figured it out yet,
14:34
I am a Chicago Bears nut.
14:37
I watched all the press conferences after
14:39
the fact.
14:40
I get notified when all the people come
14:43
to the mic so I can go watch
14:44
them.
14:46
Yeah.
14:48
KDL, is it your birthday?
14:51
Happy birthday, KDL.
14:51
Happy birthday, KDL.
14:58
my grandpa in heaven birthday today as
15:09
well cool happy birthday um speaking of
15:10
guys good on the mic i just i
15:12
had jamis winston is my favorite player
15:14
that is not a bear i've i've made
15:16
that known as well
15:18
And on Sunday NFL countdown on ESPN,
15:21
they have like players say, Hey,
15:23
it's NFL Sunday countdown.
15:25
And they just go through like a battery
15:27
of them.
15:28
They got Jameis to do one and he
15:30
goes, Hey everybody,
15:32
it's Jameis Winston on the ones and twos.
15:37
And I lost it because everybody else just
15:40
plays it straight.
15:41
And like,
15:42
of course he didn't play it straight at
15:44
all.
15:45
I swear my phone hears you talking about
15:48
him all the time because I've never seen
15:50
that many interviews.
15:51
And now some have been popping up on
15:53
my phone of him doing interviews.
15:55
So I'm like,
15:56
you're either liking it and then it's the
15:58
algorithm or literally it's listening in
16:01
to all the talks we have about him.
16:05
Well,
16:05
he's also just become the starting
16:06
quarterback a week ago.
16:08
So he's getting a lot more run than
16:11
he has for a while.
16:13
So they're out there everywhere.
16:16
um the the other best of times for
16:19
me and is that last night i stayed
16:21
up to watch the penguins play montreal i
16:24
don't know if anybody else did um because
16:26
it is hockey season even though it's
16:28
football baseball basketball everything
16:31
else uh my penguins had a five one
16:34
lead going into the third period gave it
16:37
all up gave up two goals in the
16:39
last minute of the the game
16:42
Went to overtime and won a minute in.
16:44
Oh, my God.
16:45
And I screamed so loud I woke Julie
16:47
up.
16:51
And the whole time I'm like,
16:53
I cannot face Carolyn tomorrow if both
16:55
Penn State and the Penguins lose to her
16:58
teams this weekend.
17:00
I didn't even watch the game,
17:01
but I did get the alert that they
17:02
came back from four goals down and then
17:04
brought it to overtime and then lost.
17:05
And I was like, hey,
17:06
at least we got a point.
17:08
But that's literally what was going
17:09
through my head is,
17:11
stop letting them come back.
17:12
I cannot face Carolyn tomorrow night.
17:15
As soon as Wisconsin beat Michigan State,
17:18
I had to let Jamie know.
17:19
Oh, yeah.
17:20
Yeah.
17:20
I mean, I had no hopes, really.
17:26
But, yeah, that was a rough one.
17:29
so last week wisconsin beat penn state my
17:33
team this week wisconsin beat michigan
17:36
state jamie's team so carolyn was chirping
17:39
in the group text this uh yesterday she
17:45
can be unbearable i'm just telling you
17:46
people you see the nice carolyn on the
17:49
show chirping in the chat it gets a
17:53
little wild
17:56
She sends you pictures of the win.
17:58
She does.
17:59
Of the jump around stadium.
18:03
Videos of the celebration.
18:04
Making sure you guys know what's up.
18:06
We just have to push mute, mute, mute.
18:10
So if people don't know, at Wisconsin,
18:12
at the beginning of the fourth quarter,
18:14
they play the song Jump Around.
18:15
After the third quarter, yeah.
18:17
Before the fourth, yeah.
18:18
Yeah.
18:19
And everybody in the stands jumps,
18:21
and that whole stadium actually moves.
18:24
It's crazy.
18:25
like where the students are,
18:26
like the student, student sections,
18:27
like bleachers,
18:28
like when everyone's jumping,
18:29
you are bouncing off that thing and like
18:31
hitting your neighbor and it's wild
18:34
jumping.
18:38
So, yeah, it's, it is great.
18:40
It's one of the coolest celebrations.
18:42
And yeah,
18:43
it's like one of the best traditions they
18:44
say in college football.
18:46
Like there's the, which one's good.
18:48
The Iowa one to the sick kids is
18:50
like a great tradition.
18:53
Um,
18:54
Trying to think of other really good ones.
18:58
Yeah,
18:58
I watched a little bit of that game
18:59
this weekend, too, when everybody stops,
19:02
and the cancer hospital is right outside
19:04
Iowa Stadium,
19:05
and everybody stops and waves to the kids.
19:07
I mean,
19:08
that brings a tear to my eye every
19:10
time I see it.
19:10
And I love how, like,
19:12
all the teams do it, right?
19:13
Like, the visiting team is also waving.
19:16
Like, it's a great moment.
19:19
Yeah, even Ohio State did it yesterday.
19:20
Yep.
19:22
And they're cold-hearted.
19:28
uh the iowa wave is my favorite i
19:30
just said that because david reed's in the
19:32
chat and he's die hard buckeye um so
19:39
the last thing i have is i started
19:41
watching neely this week how far in are
19:44
you oh my gosh so i watched the
19:48
first episode and then i was i was
19:49
kind of like maybe i'm coming off the
19:53
reacher high and i wanted it to be
19:56
a little more yeah
19:58
And then episode two hit and the story
20:00
got so good.
20:02
Yeah.
20:02
And now I'm in,
20:04
but I'm only two episodes in.
20:06
I've been so busy.
20:07
Like watching a bunch of extra TV has
20:09
been tough.
20:11
Yeah.
20:13
I got sucked in.
20:15
I think we watched,
20:17
I think we watched one and then like
20:20
one each night and then like three
20:24
finished it up.
20:25
I can,
20:25
I could never do three anything in a
20:27
row.
20:28
weren't doing anything last night so um
20:33
and for people who don't know neely is
20:36
the only recurring character in reacher
20:38
other than reacher and reacher is even in
20:43
the beginning of neely and so it's sending
20:47
this off as like a spin-off type thing
20:53
but i like the people she's working with
20:54
but if it's like richard we only get
20:56
them for one season
21:00
I mean, I hope that's not the case.
21:02
I guess we'll see.
21:03
Yeah,
21:04
because she is kind of stationed in
21:07
Chicago in all the reachers, right?
21:10
Like she doesn't.
21:13
Yeah.
21:14
So that'll be interesting.
21:17
Yeah,
21:17
I'm excited to get your take when you
21:19
finish it.
21:22
I am.
21:23
I am caught up on lanterns until tonight's
21:25
episode comes out.
21:26
And that one,
21:28
that one I'm so into as a geeky
21:30
comic book kid, like, you know,
21:33
the story though.
21:33
I don't, I don't know.
21:36
I'm guessing that this is a story.
21:37
I don't know for a fact that this
21:40
is going to go down what I think
21:41
it is,
21:42
but there is a story with Sinestro and
21:46
the guardians and like,
21:50
it it could twist into that that i
21:53
know the story i know but i don't
21:55
know that for a fact i told you
21:56
when it's over i'll let you know if
21:58
it hits what i think it is yeah
22:00
i'm just like completely blind i'm like
22:02
yeah i i mean i like that neely
22:06
came out all at once so i could
22:07
watch it i'm like it these bother me
22:09
when i have to wait week week to
22:11
week how many episodes is it
22:14
Lantern's like ten.
22:17
Is it ten?
22:17
It's ten.
22:18
I think they're an hour.
22:22
It's like seven in, right?
22:23
Seven in and three to go.
22:25
Okay.
22:29
And then like Neely and Reacher are like
22:31
eight.
22:32
Right.
22:35
So yeah,
22:37
this whole new wave of like TV where
22:38
you only get like they're all like mini.
22:41
Yeah.
22:44
So you get like a short stint and
22:45
then it's over.
22:47
And Amazon just drops them all at once.
22:52
So, yeah.
22:56
Reacher is the sequel to Blue Mountain
22:58
State.
22:59
That's a stretch, CrossFat.
23:01
Just because Alan Richson is in both does
23:04
not make it a sequel.
23:08
I've been watching Titans and he's in that
23:11
and it's weird.
23:16
It's like, I mean, it's like all the,
23:19
I guess that'd be,
23:20
I guess that'd be DC.
23:21
I don't know.
23:23
Have you ever seen the cartoon Teen
23:25
Titans?
23:27
Yeah, I know.
23:28
I know who the Teen Titans are.
23:29
Yeah.
23:29
Oh, it's like all of them,
23:30
but it's a, it's.
23:33
And he's in that?
23:34
Yes.
23:35
He's Hawk.
23:37
Oh.
23:38
Yeah.
23:39
So, and that's on HBO, right?
23:41
Yeah.
23:42
Okay.
23:43
was gonna there's been times i was gonna
23:44
watch it and i just haven't it's good
23:46
we're i mean i don't know for like
23:49
a season into that uh most comic book
23:56
shows and movies pull from different
23:58
stories yet if this is the story i
24:02
think it is it's getting to the end
24:04
in a in a different way than the
24:05
comics do but it seems like it's leaning
24:09
towards the same end result
24:14
he also played aquaman on smallville
24:16
really and that's superman's origin story
24:23
for people who don't know i didn't watch
24:25
smallville superman is my least favorite
24:29
dc comic it's just not fair he has
24:32
all he has one weakness it's kryptonite
24:35
everything else he's great at it's like
24:38
shohei otanius as a superhero
24:45
He pitches, he hits.
24:47
What can he do?
24:52
All right.
24:52
Well, let's get into a couple topics.
24:55
We don't have anything in depth to talk
24:56
about tonight.
24:58
So we're just going to hit some topics.
24:59
We'll talk about them briefly.
25:01
When we're done, we're done.
25:04
So first topic.
25:06
Rumors are out there that the games are
25:08
going overseas in twenty twenty seven.
25:12
pencil pen or sharpie let's break it out
25:20
i mean it really seems like it really
25:22
seems like it i at least yeah i'm
25:24
at least a pen right now like a
25:26
marker you're almost at a marker like a
25:31
dry erase one that's less than that's less
25:36
than pen i feel like that's less than
25:38
okay yeah that's true uh
25:42
Yeah, I think I'm Penn.
25:48
I'm Penn leading to Sharpie at this point.
25:54
I think where there's smoke, there's fire.
25:56
Like London?
26:00
I can see something like that.
26:03
Wherever they can afford the venue,
26:04
I think.
26:05
That's, I think, the issue.
26:12
I feel like they'll go to a place
26:13
that's predominantly English speaking.
26:18
Yeah.
26:19
Like that's,
26:20
that's going to be their big thing first
26:22
before even trying to explore other
26:25
places.
26:25
So that's why I'm like,
26:26
I'm going towards London.
26:32
Katie Elsa's pencil.
26:33
We already know it's back to Albany.
26:34
The mayor said so.
26:36
Yes.
26:36
So did the mayor of Birmingham three years
26:38
ago.
26:41
Well, they got the Masters,
26:42
so they weren't, like, completely lying.
26:45
They got something, CrossFit Games.
26:48
Yeah.
26:50
Here's my thing.
26:51
I think that – I think CrossFit,
26:55
the games, is in desperation mode.
26:59
And instead of, like,
27:01
taking a step back and figuring out a
27:04
path that will last for a long time
27:08
–
27:08
They're just throwing what they think is
27:10
the big solution at it.
27:13
And that's why it's going to happen this
27:14
year.
27:15
But I also think if they can show
27:17
that this event can travel worldwide,
27:21
it's also a way that maybe a big
27:24
sponsor comes in and helps take it over
27:30
even.
27:36
We hear...
27:38
how expensive it was just to get to
27:39
California for a lot of athletes.
27:43
The majority of the athletes come from the
27:45
United States,
27:46
and I know that it sounds like I
27:48
have a bias, and I really don't.
27:49
No,
27:49
we saw in the opening ceremony when people
27:51
were walking out, it was like USA,
27:52
and I was like, just everyone.
27:56
And...
27:57
And so if you add in South America,
28:00
US and Canada,
28:03
that's eighty percent of the athletes and
28:05
they all have to pay for that travel
28:07
themselves.
28:08
The games doesn't help them with that.
28:12
So while it may behoove the CrossFit Games
28:14
to do it,
28:16
what does it do to your athlete base?
28:22
Well,
28:22
most of those athletes are sponsored,
28:24
so... The top ten?
28:29
Carolyn,
28:30
were you sponsored enough to pay for your
28:32
trip to Europe, and you're a, what,
28:34
four-time games athlete?
28:35
Yeah.
28:38
No.
28:41
Nothing.
28:41
And then you come out with zero, too,
28:42
so you're negative.
28:46
Especially because it's, like, for even,
28:49
like, twentieth place to...
28:51
don't even know what but like that won't
28:54
cover your hotel flight food so for the
28:58
vast majority of the field it's going to
29:00
be you're in the negative here i'm really
29:06
anxious to see what the rogue crowd is
29:08
this year because the first year it was
29:12
completely sold out the second year it was
29:14
not
29:16
And now we're going the third year in
29:18
Denmark.
29:20
If it drops again... Scotland.
29:23
That's right, Scotland.
29:25
Denmark is WFP.
29:30
And so I think it's a short-term gain,
29:33
even if they do do it.
29:38
Yeah, I think the only thing... Like,
29:43
switching the games around...
29:46
And not just like around the U.S.,
29:48
like going overseas and then maybe coming
29:50
back,
29:51
I think could entice people to go when
29:55
it's in their area.
29:56
You don't know when it's coming back to
29:58
your area.
29:59
So you better go.
30:02
So Vicky put up a poll.
30:03
Are the games ready to move overseas?
30:06
Type a one or two in the chat
30:08
and it will compute your response.
30:13
One for yes, two for no.
30:20
Going to Europe would be a huge jump,
30:22
especially for all the younger athletes
30:24
who don't have a lot of sponsors.
30:38
There we go.
30:39
Now we're getting the answers,
30:41
but they're all saying no.
30:42
Wow.
30:44
mean do you guys just think it's cross
30:46
cost prohibitive so they just aren't going
30:48
to be able to do it this year
30:50
they the weight again like you said where
30:52
there's smoke there's fire and there's
30:54
there seems to be too much chatter around
30:56
it being a possibility that and i don't
31:01
my sundays are packed with football and i
31:03
try to do a little bit of um
31:06
other stuff did i see a quote of
31:08
bruce edwards saying the games have to
31:11
move overseas soon
31:16
From coaches Congress.
31:17
Yeah.
31:18
He said something about it.
31:20
Yeah.
31:20
Needing to move overseas.
31:21
Now granted coaches conference was
31:23
overseas.
31:25
And if you're playing to the crowd,
31:27
that's what you tell them.
31:29
But he did say it.
31:31
That it needs to go sooner rather than
31:34
later.
31:37
And Dave is.
31:40
Dave seems to be leaning more into next
31:42
year than he ever has in his weekend
31:44
reviews.
31:47
And that's what makes me believe yes.
31:49
That's a long trip for him to go
31:52
and visit the site quite often throughout
31:54
the year to get some ideas on and,
31:56
you know,
31:57
take that wheel stick to different places.
32:02
You know,
32:03
that's a long flight to wheel that stick.
32:06
When he has to make sure it's in
32:08
metric and not American.
32:11
It doesn't matter.
32:12
It's going to be off.
32:13
uh no rep poppy i think he said
32:15
it may be time that same thing like
32:18
i'm paraphrasing again i didn't take it
32:21
down as a note but i know bruce
32:23
said something to that effect and it may
32:25
be time is pretty it's it feels like
32:30
it's prepping you for the decision yes
32:34
it's like a soft launch if they were
32:37
to do it the best time to do
32:39
it would be like right now while they're
32:40
doing this congress thing
32:42
in the, in the,
32:44
isn't it coaches Congress or something?
32:46
Yep.
32:47
While they're there,
32:48
let's say they already know or whatnot,
32:50
like that would be a good time to
32:51
announce it.
32:54
It's a long way to go to miss,
32:55
mismeasure a five K.
33:02
But just testing why that's going to,
33:03
that's a lot of expenses that just keep
33:06
having to fly back and forth.
33:10
poll is closed we've got ninety one
33:12
percent no nine percent yes are the
33:17
viewers mostly all americans or north
33:19
americans anyone in the chat european
33:24
maybe the one that voted plane tickets are
33:27
awful plane tickets are awful now well
33:29
it's like one in the morning in europe
33:31
right now sure
33:36
Yeah,
33:37
I tried to get tickets just to Milwaukee
33:40
for the Green Bay game next week,
33:43
and it was cheaper to rent a nice
33:45
car and drive.
33:50
So that's what we're doing.
33:56
Okay, so that's that.
33:58
The next thing, Vicki,
34:00
is there a way to pull the poll
34:01
down now?
34:05
We're new to polls,
34:07
so this could be a minute.
34:11
Ah, perfect.
34:12
Okay,
34:13
the next thing is something Carolyn had
34:14
sent me, and it wasn't about Wisconsin.
34:20
What did I send?
34:21
It was Zlatan,
34:22
the famous soccer player or footballer,
34:26
doing CrossFit.
34:28
And look at the technique.
34:32
That was the best one.
34:34
And let me point out, Jamie,
34:36
he brings his feet back together.
34:38
I know.
34:41
He must have a good coach there.
34:44
I think he went up to three fifteen,
34:45
though.
34:46
Yeah, that was that one.
34:48
And the.
34:48
Like these next,
34:49
this one were like my favorite reps.
34:51
Like here.
34:51
I mean, it's, we're saying cross it.
34:53
I mean, he's just Olympic lifting,
34:55
which a lot of sports do,
34:56
but I do know that he does cross.
34:58
Like he has said that he does CrossFit.
35:01
So we know that his technique is certainly
35:03
getting better though.
35:05
So I checked it's,
35:06
this is just posted three days ago.
35:09
Yeah.
35:10
Neither the CrossFit Instagram nor the
35:13
CrossFit Games Instagram has reposted,
35:17
shared anything.
35:19
I think Morning Chalkup may have put on
35:23
their story or something.
35:26
But that's not CrossFit.
35:27
No, I know.
35:31
I think we're sharing it right now on
35:34
our podcast.
35:34
I think other media people share this
35:36
stuff.
35:37
It's CrossFit just,
35:39
they take so long to share any of
35:41
this.
35:42
They think they need permission.
35:44
And he has said in his captions that
35:49
he does CrossFit.
35:51
Just saying that, just repost it.
35:58
He's wearing ranger panties.
36:00
his legs are just so long everything is
36:02
going to look like ranger panties um he's
36:07
a big boy he he is that but
36:11
he is one of the most popular athletes
36:13
in the world by far like he's got
36:17
like what like sixty something million
36:21
followers it's something stupid i think
36:24
it's in the sixties or something maybe
36:25
vicky can look him up z-l-a-t-a-n vicky
36:34
It's some ungodly number of followers.
36:37
He's got a pretty good front rack.
36:39
Great front rack.
36:40
To get those elbows through.
36:43
I wish I had a front rack like
36:44
that.
36:48
That's how my elbows look.
36:52
But anyway,
36:54
just another thing that my pet peeve,
36:58
but good on him.
37:01
That looks good.
37:04
Keep doing it, bud.
37:05
Woo.
37:06
Sixty five point.
37:09
Sixty five point three million subscribers
37:12
followers.
37:16
Holy cow.
37:18
Well,
37:18
at least they all read that he says
37:20
he does CrossFit, though.
37:24
To him for speaking.
37:28
Right.
37:32
The more you can build a relationship in
37:34
some way,
37:36
like CrossFit should have commented.
37:38
Yeah.
37:39
Hey, like great technique on those.
37:41
I see you're getting really good at the
37:43
front rack.
37:45
Things that we just develop a
37:47
relationship.
37:48
Don't just reach out to an agent.
37:52
Like when I first started this podcast,
37:55
I had to develop relationships to get
37:57
people to come on.
37:59
And you do that by like interacting with
38:01
them on social media.
38:03
Well,
38:03
you see companies write on people's posts
38:05
all the time.
38:06
Like if they see any type of,
38:08
you know,
38:08
use of their products or whatever,
38:10
you know,
38:10
they're in the comments all the time
38:12
writing things.
38:14
last week i got nine hours of sleep
38:16
on a weeknight and i posted it and
38:19
thanked thirdsy and they reached out to me
38:22
and said that is awesome like yes that's
38:26
that's the stuff that happens when you
38:27
work to make a relationship there are
38:32
seven point seven million views on that
38:35
reel alone
38:42
My husband just heard you say,
38:43
I wish I had a front rack like
38:45
that.
38:45
I had to explain it's not the rack
38:47
he thinks.
38:55
That's everything in CrossFit.
38:56
I know.
38:58
Everything.
39:00
Everything.
39:01
But speaking of thirdsie.
39:03
I did get nine hours of sleep one
39:05
night this week,
39:06
and I got a bunch of eight hours
39:07
of sleep.
39:08
And you can too by using the most
39:11
awesome chocolatey goodness product on the
39:13
market or strawberry lemonade if you
39:16
prefer.
39:17
And you can do that at thirdzee.com
39:19
backslash Jazzy or use promo code Jazzy at
39:24
checkout and get fifteen percent off your
39:27
order.
39:28
Are you having it hot or cold?
39:30
I've done it both.
39:32
If I have time, I do it hot.
39:33
If I'm in a rush,
39:34
I do it cold.
39:36
But I always do it in my Ninja
39:37
Blender, my Ninja Bullet.
39:40
Because it mixes it up nice and has
39:41
a little foamy.
39:50
You also show up, Scott.
39:51
I've seen you at comps in the past.
39:57
I sure do.
39:58
see less of us if it goes overseas,
39:59
though.
40:03
Hopefully we're competing.
40:10
Tessa says they should pull athletes from
40:12
each pro sport that claims they do
40:14
CrossFit and market the F out of that.
40:17
That's what I've been saying.
40:21
But you're never going to get them to
40:23
agree to
40:25
come in and be videoed and filmed and
40:28
do your own production stuff.
40:31
You just have to work with them where
40:32
they're at.
40:34
That's been my biggest thing.
40:37
I don't know why they need it to
40:38
be like a fancy production.
40:39
Like it should be organic.
40:41
Like the stuff he's putting out,
40:42
just share it.
40:43
Tyson Bajan three years ago said if he
40:46
wasn't going to make it to the NFL,
40:48
all he wanted,
40:48
he wanted to be a CrossFit coach and
40:50
work out until he got jacked as possible.
40:55
That stood up there forever while CrossFit
40:57
went over and made a video that took
40:59
three months to put out.
41:01
By the time they got it out,
41:03
that story was long gone.
41:06
And they did like a nine minute video
41:08
that everybody was like,
41:09
we already know all that because we've
41:11
watched all the reactions to that over the
41:14
months.
41:14
Right.
41:17
I find even sometimes like they'll put on
41:20
their Instagram small little videos and
41:22
like go watch it on YouTube or something
41:24
later.
41:26
do you think that they should just put
41:27
the full video or whatever,
41:28
like on Instagram or.
41:31
Well,
41:31
if you read anything about how to not
41:33
do Instagram, it's to say,
41:35
go check out a video.
41:38
Yeah.
41:39
You should never say,
41:40
go check out a video.
41:42
If you do that,
41:42
Instagram doesn't want people to leave.
41:45
So it will kill the algorithm.
41:48
Cause I think they've done that with a
41:49
few of their recent ones that are like
41:53
more story.
41:53
I think there was one that was, um,
41:57
I think it was Todd,
42:01
one of the CrossFit seminar staff,
42:04
and he was coaching kids,
42:05
and I think one of the kids went
42:07
to, like, had a,
42:08
got hit by a car or something.
42:11
But you could watch, like,
42:12
part of it was on Instagram,
42:13
and then the full was on YouTube,
42:17
and you had to wait, I think,
42:18
for it to come out.
42:19
It was like a preview,
42:20
but I was like, oh, they should just.
42:22
It's okay to put clips of it as
42:24
a reel and hope that people find it.
42:26
But the minute you say go to,
42:28
like Instagram will kill it.
42:33
That's why Instagram doesn't allow links
42:35
in the captions, if you notice.
42:40
Because they don't want you to leave.
42:46
Speaking of which,
42:47
I didn't have this on the agenda,
42:48
but did you guys see that Core City
42:50
CrossFit has a new leader and they're not
42:53
going to go away?
42:54
Yes.
42:54
I did not see that.
42:57
We announced a couple weeks ago that,
43:01
oh my gosh, her name is escaping me,
43:03
is stepping down.
43:05
We had her on the show.
43:06
Jamie and I talked to her.
43:07
Helen.
43:08
had her on the show uh she had
43:11
to step down it was getting to be
43:12
too much but someone has agreed to step
43:15
in and take it over and helen has
43:17
said that she's still going to be a
43:18
part of it just not in the day-to-day
43:21
operations which is awesome because that
43:25
program for the kids of detroit is
43:28
phenomenal yeah it looked awesome
43:33
So now on to the bad news.
43:35
I just wanted to get your impressions.
43:37
Rowan Lowe,
43:38
we've talked about this in the chat all
43:40
week, our text string,
43:42
popped for testosterone use.
43:47
Masters, fifty-five to fifty-nine.
43:51
Dominated the field this year.
43:54
Tested positive for
43:58
essentially synthetic testosterone there's
44:01
a technical term for it that was used
44:04
in the story but um it's funny because
44:09
and i said this earlier on the lunch
44:10
show i interviewed him last at the
44:13
columbus crossfit games last year he was
44:17
middle of the pack at best and even
44:21
in that interview he talks about like
44:23
winning isn't what's important
44:25
And then all of a sudden this year
44:28
he dominates the field.
44:30
And I remember being there this year
44:31
going,
44:32
that's not the same guy I saw a
44:34
year ago.
44:36
And it immediately popped into my head is
44:38
like, he's gotta be on some.
44:42
And like the intention of taking things
44:44
maybe at that age is not necessarily for
44:47
CrossFit.
44:47
It could be for their health,
44:49
but then there is the effect that it
44:51
helps significantly for CrossFit.
44:53
Right.
44:53
So it's like.
44:55
don't care that you want to do it
44:56
but then there's a certain age where like
44:58
a certain time it's like okay you've done
44:59
it now like you're not a professional not
45:02
that they're professional athletes but
45:03
like you're not competing in a sport like
45:07
do what you need to do for your
45:08
health that's fine you know especially if
45:11
you're if you're living a life that you
45:14
know is not not fun or whatever like
45:18
do what you need to do but then
45:20
don't compete like
45:23
That's it.
45:24
It's not that hard.
45:28
I know this is your big pet peeve,
45:30
Jamie.
45:31
Got something to say or are you just
45:32
done?
45:34
I'm over it.
45:35
I'm curious if he's going to come out
45:37
and talk at all like the other guy
45:38
did.
45:39
I hope not.
45:43
I'm tired of the excuses.
45:46
Oh,
45:46
I didn't know that I couldn't have PRT
45:50
and
45:52
My doctor prescribed it and I was just
45:53
following what my doctors had to do.
45:57
Which again is fine,
45:59
but you just don't compete.
46:02
Right.
46:03
I'm tired of the tainted supplement.
46:05
I'm tired of the,
46:06
I didn't know my doctor prescribed it.
46:08
I thought because it was a prescription,
46:09
it was fine.
46:10
I'm tired of the,
46:11
I kissed my girlfriend and she was using
46:15
and other... It was in their mouth and...
46:20
Yep.
46:20
I'm tired of all those stories.
46:23
We've heard them all.
46:24
They've all been debunked.
46:25
There's nothing new you can come up with.
46:28
Just go away for four years.
46:31
We'll see you later.
46:32
All right.
46:40
With that...
46:42
We also got the news that Rogue has
46:44
finished testing their workouts,
46:46
which is a good thing because it happens
46:48
in a couple weeks.
46:50
But the other big announcement this week
46:52
are they are backfilling two positions,
46:54
Saxon Panczyk.
46:57
So Saxon,
46:58
this is the second year in a row
46:59
he's gotten a backfill to go to Rogue.
47:02
And if you're going to get a backfill,
47:04
this is the competition to get a backfill.
47:06
Heck yeah.
47:10
So he is replacing Justin?
47:13
Yeah.
47:14
So who is Harry replacing from the other
47:17
time?
47:18
Yona?
47:19
Oh, yeah, Klosky.
47:19
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
47:23
And then Sierra,
47:24
Sierra Meja is getting a backfill and I
47:27
don't know who she's replacing.
47:29
Well,
47:29
I went and looked at the roster and
47:31
Haley was on there and now Haley is
47:33
not on there.
47:34
So I like,
47:35
you can see if you go to rogue
47:37
invitational on their app or possibly
47:39
their website, you can see the roster.
47:41
And I was like,
47:42
I was trying to figure out which girl
47:43
was no longer there.
47:45
And then I went to their announcement of
47:46
the athletes that were,
47:48
going to the Rose Invitational.
47:50
And I do,
47:51
I believe Haley was on the list before
47:54
and now is not.
47:56
Haley was announced as a participant at
47:58
one time.
47:59
Yeah.
48:00
So,
48:00
and I did not see her on the
48:03
app.
48:03
If you can,
48:04
if you're able to pull that up,
48:05
you can see the four rosters are there
48:06
now.
48:08
They update them like continuously
48:10
whenever there's changes.
48:13
I believe you.
48:16
So my,
48:16
my thought was that maybe she's going all
48:18
in with high rocks,
48:19
which was what I thought when she made
48:21
a post the other day that like she
48:23
did her first high rocks, you know,
48:26
loves it and could be very,
48:30
very good at it.
48:30
I mean, Haley's amazing on machines.
48:33
She's an amazing runner.
48:35
I can totally see her switching and going
48:39
to that.
48:43
I think she likes those long workouts,
48:45
those grinds.
48:46
She's going to do great.
48:49
I'll ask the asshole question,
48:52
and that is,
48:54
do you think that Haley's CrossFit career
48:56
is over?
49:08
Well, I mean,
49:08
if she goes all in with high rocks.
49:12
she can definitely get to a point where
49:15
I think that I think the strength won't
49:19
like,
49:19
won't help her in some of the semifinals.
49:21
And then it's getting so competitive that
49:23
it like,
49:23
it could be very hard to qualify through
49:26
a semifinal, but can she do it?
49:29
Yes.
49:29
She's so talented.
49:31
Um,
49:31
and like the Haley we saw at syndicate,
49:33
it was amazing.
49:36
Right.
49:37
Um,
49:39
But I'm not sure.
49:40
That's a good question.
49:40
Yeah,
49:41
she definitely would not be a shoo-in.
49:44
She'd always be like a program.
49:46
I mean,
49:47
it depends if it's a one rep max
49:49
lift or is it reps of a certain
49:52
percentage?
49:52
Because she's one of the best at that.
49:55
She's amazing at moving a barbell.
49:58
I think she was the best at that.
50:01
I think some of those skills have
50:03
deteriorated.
50:05
And not because she's not working hard.
50:07
I think she's getting frustrated.
50:11
I think she's reaching a moment where like
50:13
she feels she peaked and she's frustrated.
50:18
And I'm not saying it out of like
50:20
ill will or – because I think she's
50:23
great for the sport.
50:24
She's one of the few people that get
50:26
a ton of followers that was really damn
50:28
good.
50:32
But she's starting to fade and I think
50:36
it's –
50:38
Here's the wild question.
50:39
She just switched to brute and now go
50:43
all in on high rocks.
50:46
Why burn the bridge?
50:49
Why burn the bridge before you're going to
50:50
switch to something else?
50:53
So that's the only hope I have that
50:54
she may come back.
50:57
But High Rock's training is not going to
50:59
help her at all in any way in
51:02
her CrossFit career because she's already
51:04
good at that stuff.
51:05
Sydney Wells is having a great WFP season
51:09
and she's been training almost like, well,
51:13
I think she has been training like a
51:14
lot of High Rock stuff.
51:17
And it seems like she's crushing the
51:20
CrossFit thing still.
51:22
So I don't know how much CrossFit Sydney's
51:24
doing right now,
51:25
but
51:26
She does look very good.
51:29
Isn't there a podcast out that Sydney said
51:31
she's going all in on High Rocks?
51:34
Possibly, but, I mean,
51:35
even with going all in on High Rocks,
51:36
she's doing very well for WFP.
51:40
I'm pretty sure, like,
51:41
in close to the top five.
51:44
Certainly in the top ten.
51:50
Yeah,
51:51
WFP seems like a better route for Haley,
51:52
too, to be quite honest.
51:54
Oh, here it is.
51:57
For some reason, when Vicki shares,
51:59
the volume doesn't... I was like,
52:01
I'm not getting out if she's not getting
52:03
out.
52:03
She's definitely not getting out if I'm
52:04
not getting out.
52:05
So we're in it together.
52:11
Okay.
52:11
Is there a timestamp, Tessa, where she...
52:25
She's ninety five percent high rocks.
52:28
Wow.
52:35
It's one thing to be top ten in
52:38
WFP.
52:39
She never got that.
52:43
She never did that well in a CrossFit
52:44
game season.
52:45
Sure.
52:50
And while.
52:52
She can make a lot of money in
52:53
WFP.
52:54
And if she can hold that in WFP
52:57
doing ninety five percent high rocks.
52:59
Good for her.
53:01
Fund your season with WFP.
53:03
Do a bunch of high rocks.
53:06
Instead of doing the CrossFit game season
53:09
and WFP and burning out on CrossFit.
53:13
That's sort of how I feel like with
53:14
Haley, though.
53:15
And she's a Red Bull athlete.
53:16
Like,
53:16
I don't know why she isn't just doing
53:18
WFP.
53:24
I don't know.
53:26
Cause she is a Red Bull athlete and
53:27
Red Bull is a major sponsor of WFP.
53:30
Like it seems to be more aligned with
53:34
her sponsors, but I'm just,
53:41
I'm just a guy with a podcast.
53:42
I don't know.
53:47
All right.
53:48
So the next thing on the list is
53:49
crash.
53:50
Crucible is next weekend.
53:54
I have the lineups.
53:59
So here is the women.
54:02
I'll blow this up.
54:04
And come on.
54:08
Nope, doesn't want to do it.
54:10
Sydney's proven coach is probably Cole
54:12
Learn.
54:17
I don't know why it's not working the
54:19
way it normally does.
54:23
There we go.
54:27
All right.
54:28
So we have Allison Wynn, Allie Mertens.
54:31
Oh, she changed her name.
54:33
Amara Wiley, Ariel Sanders, Ashley Cope,
54:37
Aubriana Montplaisir, Blair Chaney,
54:41
Brianna Jacobson, Caitlin Bernadine,
54:45
Carolyn Klutz, Caroline Stanley,
54:47
Krista Mack, Delia Moises,
54:50
Elizabeth Wishart, Hattie Canio,
54:51
Jen Micheletti,
54:54
Kendall Gilmore, Liz Peterson, Lydia Fish,
54:57
Maddie Fouts, Mary Dawkin,
54:59
Mary Helen Saunders, Mackenzie Riley,
55:03
Nadia Simialis, Nina Looper, Riley Beebe,
55:10
Samantha Pugh, Sydney Saunders,
55:14
Trista Smith, and Zoe Warren.
55:17
What you'll notice there is the Masters
55:20
are listed with
55:23
the elite athletes,
55:24
and they will be seated with the elite
55:27
athletes.
55:28
I saw two.
55:29
Is there more than that?
55:31
Yeah, I only noticed.
55:32
Well, Brianna is.
55:33
You said Brianna Wallin, didn't you?
55:35
I couldn't see.
55:36
I said Brianna Jacobson.
55:40
Oh, not Wallin.
55:41
Okay, then I don't know.
55:43
I don't know.
55:43
I only heard Mackenzie and Carolyn.
55:47
But that is a new rule that if
55:49
you wanted to do it,
55:50
you'll see more on the men.
55:52
But you get seated with the elite
55:54
athletes.
55:55
So say Caroline Klutz is getting the best
55:59
scores again.
55:59
She will be seated in the last heat
56:01
with the elite women.
56:03
But there will still be a master's
56:04
division that has a payout.
56:06
Which is why I'm wondering if there's more
56:09
than two.
56:09
How old's Allie?
56:12
Is she a master's yet?
56:13
No.
56:13
She's in her early thirties.
56:16
Maybe.
56:20
yeah i'm not sure who the other because
56:21
i mean that's a good chance of money
56:22
if you only got two people yeah on
56:27
the men's side we have alexander majors
56:33
And it doesn't want to work for me
56:34
either.
56:34
This has been fussy for me all day.
56:37
Alexander Majors, Anthony Yim,
56:40
Bobby Gerzal, Colton Mertens,
56:45
Daniel Goulet, David Johnston,
56:48
Grant Griffin, Hudson Frick,
56:51
Jeremy Gwizdala,
56:53
Joe Piero, Josh Felix, JT Ferguson,
56:57
Corby Foxall, Logan Brown, Lucas Purdy,
57:00
McGuire Nickerson, Mason Griffin,
57:03
Matthias Porter, Mitch Wagner, Nick Azor,
57:06
Noah Wilson, Robert Yates, Roy Cohen,
57:10
Rudy Berger, Samuel Demeester,
57:13
Samuel Sperlin, Saren Sevenassi, Seven SI,
57:18
Sergio Brasino, Zachary Gibbon,
57:22
and Zachary Levy.
57:24
Definitely more on the men's side.
57:26
Yeah,
57:26
there's a lot of Masters athletes on the
57:28
men's side.
57:33
So those are your athletes for next week
57:37
at Crucible.
57:37
They have some pretty good names.
57:39
They have some real good names.
57:42
It'll be real fun to see how that
57:43
goes.
57:43
I've done the men's not as deep as
57:45
in the past.
57:46
Am I wrong thinking that?
57:50
Some solid semifinals,
57:51
but not really many like low games
57:53
athletes.
57:55
Like in the past,
57:55
you saw low games athletes and high
57:58
semifinals.
57:58
I feel like this one has more semifinals
58:00
athletes.
58:03
I think it's because we're in that spot
58:04
now where there's just too much going on.
58:06
Yeah.
58:08
And Crash is the one that's going to
58:09
lose out on those low games athletes.
58:15
We have to train for either WFP or
58:16
Rogue.
58:18
WFP rogue and water Palooza SoCal.
58:20
If you got picked for that team,
58:22
like it,
58:23
it shouldn't shock me that Colton is doing
58:25
all of it, but gosh, that's a lot.
58:35
I wish that Carolyn was competing.
58:37
I was supposed to.
58:38
And then I messaged Jr.
58:39
When I qualified for rogue and told him
58:42
I wasn't going to be able to,
58:43
not that I couldn't compete.
58:46
Cause I, I,
58:47
fully feel like I could compete almost any
58:49
weekend,
58:51
but I can't take that time off work
58:53
all in the first semester with rogue WFP.
58:57
Like that's already way too much in one
58:59
semester.
58:59
I could not do another one plus service
59:02
cup too.
59:03
Just so you know, Fergie, uh,
59:05
she already told us her kids are going
59:06
to be punished with multiple tests a day
59:09
so that they can get all their tests
59:11
in before she leaves for rogue.
59:12
So before we hopped on,
59:14
I was telling Scott and Jamie how, um,
59:17
I'm like, I'm trying to,
59:19
I'm trying to get ahead,
59:20
especially in my math classes,
59:22
because I know I'm missing a few, well,
59:26
multiple days in a row on a few
59:27
occasions in the first semester,
59:29
which is never the case.
59:31
Like I don't go overseas when I'm
59:32
teaching.
59:34
And I've gone like two or three times
59:36
now this year.
59:37
But so like they're already doing their
59:39
second math test of the year or Tuesday.
59:43
And we just started September eight.
59:46
And I'm like, I don't even care.
59:48
Let's just go.
59:48
Let's get through it.
59:50
Let's get ahead.
59:51
I'd be curious if Colton would be doing
59:56
it if Allie wasn't.
1:00:00
I think he's so loyal to J.R.,
1:00:03
It makes it really easy, though,
1:00:04
to go if your wife wants to do
1:00:06
it, too, and you're going to go travel.
1:00:08
Because, like, yeah, like,
1:00:11
if he can take the time off and
1:00:13
they can afford the trip, it's whatever.
1:00:15
Like,
1:00:16
if you didn't have school and this was,
1:00:18
like, covered for you, you'd go, Carolyn.
1:00:21
It's not a competing question.
1:00:24
It's a time and money question.
1:00:26
Yeah, I mean,
1:00:27
it's also out of pocket for me.
1:00:28
Right, right.
1:00:29
But in all fairness,
1:00:30
like Carolyn didn't do what a Palooza
1:00:33
SoCal.
1:00:33
Yeah.
1:00:33
Right.
1:00:35
Like,
1:00:36
but I think Colton can show up here
1:00:38
and like, it's almost an easy ish comp.
1:00:42
Like he's, well, he went, I don't know.
1:00:44
He should, but like an easy top three,
1:00:47
I think for him on any given day.
1:00:49
Right.
1:00:50
So why not?
1:00:53
It's a good training weekend.
1:00:54
Like you're still a couple of weeks out
1:00:56
from rogue.
1:00:59
You know you're going to get some odd
1:01:00
objects.
1:01:01
You're going to hit random stuff.
1:01:02
I think that's not a bad idea for
1:01:04
him to do.
1:01:08
He just has to... If it were me,
1:01:10
you just have to play it smart.
1:01:11
He doesn't need to win by two minutes
1:01:13
like he does in some events.
1:01:15
Well,
1:01:15
they're not doing the P score this year.
1:01:18
Right.
1:01:18
So it's just regular.
1:01:19
So he doesn't need to push the pace.
1:01:22
So he just has to win.
1:01:23
He can coast.
1:01:25
Which I don't see him doing that
1:01:27
because...
1:01:28
I don't think that's the way that he
1:01:31
competes,
1:01:32
but I think that's a nice payday probably
1:01:37
for him.
1:01:37
Yeah, and Crucible pays really well.
1:01:45
And I think they're upping the prize this
1:01:46
year because they have the flow elite as
1:01:48
well.
1:01:54
One piece we didn't talk about with Roan
1:01:56
is, you know,
1:01:56
he got some of that Flow Elite dollars
1:01:59
at the games for winning athlete of the
1:02:01
day.
1:02:03
Wonder if that check went out.
1:02:05
And if it didn't go out,
1:02:07
are they going to pick somebody else?
1:02:14
Probably already went out.
1:02:15
Well, that money is from Flow, right?
1:02:16
So it's not through CrossFit.
1:02:17
So it could have gone out, yeah.
1:02:18
Yep.
1:02:21
Can you put a stop action on the
1:02:22
check at this point?
1:02:29
All right, last thing I have on the...
1:02:31
Wait,
1:02:31
what's your predictions on the women and
1:02:34
men's side since this weekend?
1:02:37
Who wins on the women?
1:02:37
What's your podium?
1:02:43
Lydia?
1:02:43
I'm going to go with my girl Liz
1:02:46
Wishart.
1:02:47
Shout out to her.
1:02:49
I'm going to go Caroline Klutz.
1:02:51
Let's shake it up.
1:02:53
And Maddie Fouts.
1:02:54
Klutz is going to do well, too.
1:02:56
I think Klutz is going to be third
1:02:57
on the podium, actually.
1:02:59
She'll be way up there.
1:03:01
She's so good.
1:03:01
And I don't think anybody beats Colton.
1:03:05
Colton.
1:03:08
So I'll...
1:03:10
I don't know many of the guys' names.
1:03:12
I'm going to shout out my former noon
1:03:15
CrossFit coach, Alexander Majors.
1:03:24
Maybe like a podium last year, Sam.
1:03:28
Sam did well last year.
1:03:30
Yeah.
1:03:30
Yeah, Sam could do really well.
1:03:31
I'm trying to think of who's there.
1:03:37
I know.
1:03:37
Noah Wilson or something like that.
1:03:40
Yeah.
1:03:40
I just read them all, Carolyn.
1:03:41
Don't you remember all thirty?
1:03:43
Yeah, no,
1:03:44
I'm trying to think of Josh Felix.
1:03:46
Yeah, Josh Felix's semis.
1:03:51
I think after Colton,
1:03:51
it's actually kind of an interesting
1:03:53
competition.
1:03:55
Yeah.
1:03:57
Yeah.
1:03:57
I'll be hoping my boys that Gibbon does
1:03:59
well on the master side.
1:04:02
And Rudy, Rudy's there.
1:04:07
I'm, I'm anxious to see if,
1:04:09
cause Rudy is older than Caroline.
1:04:11
Oh yeah.
1:04:13
So for him to compete with the elite,
1:04:15
it's going to be interesting to see where
1:04:17
that falls.
1:04:19
Because he dominated Masters.
1:04:21
I think he's the oldest one there.
1:04:23
David Johnston's older.
1:04:24
And I think Joey Perez is older, too.
1:04:26
What a cool experience for them, though.
1:04:29
Even if they end up in the bottom
1:04:30
heat, I think that's pretty cool.
1:04:38
Lions scored, Jamie.
1:04:40
I'm trying to get out early so that
1:04:45
Jamie can go see her game.
1:04:47
Plus, I have
1:04:50
I have somebody playing tonight in that
1:04:52
game.
1:04:56
Vicki, did you find Sydney saying that?
1:04:58
Is that what I saw in the private
1:05:00
chat?
1:05:01
Do you want to pull that up?
1:05:02
I don't.
1:05:16
Okay, okay, that's amazing.
1:05:18
So you found Hyrux.
1:05:20
I don't think you're all in on Hyrux
1:05:22
now, are you?
1:05:23
You're still doing some cross-setting
1:05:24
things?
1:05:26
Well,
1:05:26
I'm doing like World Fitness Project.
1:05:29
I kind of did decide like HIROX is
1:05:32
like my primary focus right now.
1:05:35
But I'm still competing in World Fitness
1:05:37
Project.
1:05:37
I'm just not training as much HIROX as
1:05:39
I have in the past or as much
1:05:41
CrossFit as I have in the past.
1:05:44
So I guess like, I mean,
1:05:46
I would say my training is ninety five
1:05:48
percent HIROX.
1:05:49
OK, OK.
1:05:50
I was going to ask if you feel
1:05:52
like you can do the.
1:05:53
OK, good, Nicky.
1:05:56
Perfect.
1:05:57
There it is.
1:05:59
She is ninety five percent high rocks.
1:06:06
Last thing I have is Xenon.
1:06:09
Did you guys see they made an announcement
1:06:11
this week?
1:06:11
I read those on your notes.
1:06:12
I hadn't seen that.
1:06:15
So I don't know.
1:06:18
Here's a neat little graphic that they put
1:06:19
out.
1:06:22
So this is the Xenon pyramid.
1:06:28
It's three-dimensional,
1:06:29
unlike the CrossFit pyramid.
1:06:32
They now have a fourth division.
1:06:35
There's been a lot of complaints that
1:06:38
there's no real entry-level position to
1:06:41
come in and compete like High Rocks has.
1:06:45
And so they've added a foundations level
1:06:48
that you can come in and compete at
1:06:50
a foundations level.
1:06:52
Another complaint that they've had is it's
1:06:54
a two-day competition where High Rocks is
1:06:56
one day.
1:06:57
So they are giving you the option that
1:06:59
you can sign up for day one or
1:07:01
day two only.
1:07:06
But you will only get the score for
1:07:08
that day.
1:07:11
Okay.
1:07:12
Which makes it funny.
1:07:12
It just makes it that your score is
1:07:14
going to be low because you only get
1:07:15
half the test.
1:07:16
It is five and five, right?
1:07:20
Yep, five and five.
1:07:21
I think those are good additions.
1:07:23
I do too.
1:07:24
I think it's listening to the right people
1:07:26
and making the right additions.
1:07:28
And so I looked at the foundations.
1:07:33
I got to shrink it a little bit.
1:07:35
Okay.
1:07:36
So this is like what they say a
1:07:37
foundations athlete would do.
1:07:40
And it'd be like a snatch,
1:07:42
scaled wall walks, zombie rope climbs,
1:07:46
echo bike, a thirty five,
1:07:48
twenty five kilogram barbell cycling.
1:07:53
Echo ski and run, hanging knee raises,
1:07:57
single,
1:07:58
fifteen to ten kilogram dumbbell snatches,
1:08:02
pull-ups, rhino pull, burpees, echo ski,
1:08:05
echo bike, sixty,
1:08:08
thirty-five kilogram barbell cleans,
1:08:11
eighty-five,
1:08:11
sixty kilogram barbell cleans heaviest,
1:08:14
and then dual dumbbell shoulder to
1:08:16
overhead ring rows, single, fifteen,
1:08:19
ten kilogram dumbbell lunges.
1:08:25
So that's something I could do.
1:08:27
Yeah, that would seem reasonable.
1:08:30
And it would allow me to go to
1:08:31
a competition, compete,
1:08:34
and in the same competition that Carolyn
1:08:36
competes in.
1:08:37
Which day would you pick?
1:08:39
Day one or day two?
1:08:40
If you were only doing one day.
1:08:44
Two.
1:08:46
Jamie,
1:08:46
if you only had to pick one day.
1:08:50
The not snatch day.
1:08:53
But that's the run day.
1:08:55
Oh, that sucks.
1:08:58
What day has the total bar?
1:08:59
Um, I don't know for the,
1:09:04
so you want elite total bars day two.
1:09:09
Yeah,
1:09:09
I'd probably do day two total bar muscle
1:09:12
up in event six.
1:09:17
burpees echo ski echo bike and then the
1:09:20
barbell cleans handstand push-up chest to
1:09:23
bar yeah i would pick day two also
1:09:25
but it's interesting like so could someone
1:09:28
pick up day one or two even in
1:09:29
the elites as well so like someone could
1:09:31
be like i'm training just for day one
1:09:33
right now go and see what their scores
1:09:35
are see like right or the just foundation
1:09:38
get those
1:09:39
No,
1:09:39
I think it's every division can pick just
1:09:41
one or the other.
1:09:42
But you only get a score for that
1:09:44
day,
1:09:44
and you can't go do the other day
1:09:47
at another location and combine the two.
1:09:49
Yeah, yeah.
1:09:49
No, no, I didn't think that you could,
1:09:51
but I just think someone could focus on
1:09:54
those five tests for like, I don't know,
1:09:56
this one competition and the next
1:09:58
competition.
1:09:59
They focus on the other one,
1:10:00
and then they could combine it when
1:10:03
they've kind of built their volume.
1:10:04
I think it's interesting, though.
1:10:05
I like that idea.
1:10:06
Yeah, I think those are good ads.
1:10:11
Yeah, I think they're great ads.
1:10:15
I'm really happy with what they put
1:10:16
together there.
1:10:18
And it actually makes me like next year,
1:10:20
if one shows up and say Columbus,
1:10:24
I might sign up, see if my friends,
1:10:26
Carol and Jamie want to hop in.
1:10:30
Because I think that'd be fun.
1:10:33
And I'd even do both days.
1:10:40
Um, that's really all I have for tonight.
1:10:44
I do want to say one thing.
1:10:45
Someone in the chat just said they didn't
1:10:47
see me in the chat of like Sivan
1:10:49
show, things like that.
1:10:50
Am I fighting?
1:10:51
I'm not fighting with anybody.
1:10:53
I'm not part of any of this stuff,
1:10:56
but I do have a day job where
1:10:59
I have to work during the day.
1:11:01
And so a lot of times I'm listening
1:11:03
and not chatting.
1:11:06
There are times where I have like less
1:11:08
busy times where I can chat a little
1:11:10
bit more,
1:11:11
but lately I have not had those.
1:11:14
I'm in a state where we're electing a
1:11:16
governor in a month and we call that
1:11:18
silly season because everybody's asking
1:11:21
everybody to do things that probably are
1:11:24
never going to get accomplished,
1:11:27
never get done because the old
1:11:30
administration's asking you to do it and
1:11:32
there's a new administration coming.
1:11:35
And so I'm doing a lot of busy
1:11:37
work right now,
1:11:39
and there are moments where I really hate
1:11:41
my job, and I really hate it now.
1:11:44
And if you want to know the biggest
1:11:45
reason why,
1:11:47
something happened Friday afternoon,
1:11:49
and I will talk about it tomorrow on
1:11:50
the lunch show.
1:11:56
Cliffhanger.
1:11:58
Same.
1:11:59
I'm not on a team in the BS.
1:12:01
I like everybody.
1:12:02
I talk to everybody.
1:12:05
I pull information from everybody.
1:12:09
I don't wanna be,
1:12:11
media should not be the news,
1:12:12
we should report the news.
1:12:17
And some national media need to know,
1:12:20
start doing that as well.
1:12:23
Just saying.
1:12:27
The motto of my current work section is
1:12:29
information for information's sake.
1:12:33
I wish they were even getting information
1:12:35
out of it, KDL.
1:12:35
Terry,
1:12:40
it was a four o'clock email on Friday
1:12:42
that sent me into a lather and tither.
1:12:47
And then Penn State getting walloped by
1:12:48
Northwestern that evening really made my
1:12:51
day.
1:12:54
I don't feel like there's any new drama.
1:12:57
No.
1:12:57
Andrew, someone just asked in the chat,
1:12:59
am I fighting with Siobhan?
1:13:01
I am not.
1:13:02
I'm not fighting with anybody.
1:13:04
The only person I ever fight with Andrew
1:13:06
is you and Jamie and Jamie.
1:13:11
We don't go after it too often,
1:13:13
but we have a couple of times.
1:13:18
We do.
1:13:20
And it's worse when we're together.
1:13:23
Like she bows up and like comes at
1:13:27
me hard.
1:13:33
But that's what makes the trip so fun.
1:13:38
Yes, Wayne,
1:13:38
I also fight with LeVar Burton.
1:13:44
Who's LeVar Burton?
1:13:45
Reading Rainbow.
1:13:46
Come on, Carolyn.
1:13:47
Because I've refused to read any more
1:13:49
books.
1:13:53
So Reading Rainbow this bitch.
1:13:59
Yes, Terry, this is a drama-free zone.
1:14:02
Because when Jamie and I fight,
1:14:04
we still love each other.
1:14:05
Yeah.
1:14:06
We still hang out.
1:14:07
We still chat.
1:14:10
There's moments where I've had to walk
1:14:11
away and count to ten.
1:14:13
But at the end of the day,
1:14:14
we still go out to dinner.
1:14:15
I'm always hungry, so.
1:14:18
All right, guys.
1:14:24
With that,
1:14:25
we're going to head out of here.
1:14:26

We'll be back tomorrow with Lunch with the

Clydesdale all week.
1:14:33
Next week's going to get a little goofy.
1:14:36
It may just be a girls' night on
1:14:38
Sunday night with the Crash Crucible recap
1:14:42
show, as I will be in Green Bay,
1:14:44
Wisconsin,
1:14:45
hopefully celebrating the victory of my
1:14:49
Chicago Bears with Tyson Bajent over the
1:14:52
Green Bay Packers.
1:14:53
Will you get special access at all?
1:14:57
I don't know, Tyson.
1:14:58
Yeah.
1:15:00
I don't know.
1:15:02
I don't know if Hiller can give me
1:15:04
the hookup.
1:15:06
Because I am in the front row.
1:15:09
I'm in the front row in the end
1:15:10
zone.
1:15:10
Man, how'd you get those tickets?
1:15:14
A listener of this podcast offered me two
1:15:17
seats as his season ticket package.
1:15:20
Wow.
1:15:22
So I'm going with Eric Mackey and his
1:15:24
son,
1:15:25
and Julie and I are going to Lambeau
1:15:28
Field to see...
1:15:29
You want to get someone to do a
1:15:30
Lambeau Leap?
1:15:31
right to you he sent me a video
1:15:34
of them doing it into his son's lap
1:15:36
wow that's crazy what do you do if
1:15:40
it's a green bay player well will i
1:15:42
get arrested if i shove them back i
1:15:49
wouldn't do that did you see all the
1:15:52
the refs two refs are in trouble for
1:15:55
what
1:15:57
So one person,
1:15:59
one defensive player got pushed into a ref
1:16:02
and the ref went down.
1:16:03
Yeah.
1:16:03
And he got up and he was livid.
1:16:07
The ref was livid.
1:16:09
Did he think it was on purpose?
1:16:11
He thought the defensive player did it on
1:16:13
purpose.
1:16:14
But he was shoved into him by the
1:16:15
offensive player.
1:16:16
Right.
1:16:17
And in the Cardinal game.
1:16:20
They video caught the ref yelling
1:16:22
obscenities, profanity,
1:16:24
Lynn at Trey McBride,
1:16:26
the tight end of the Cardinals.
1:16:35
Yeah.
1:16:36
We're drama free here.
1:16:38
We may fight,
1:16:40
but we don't yell profanities each other.
1:16:42
We just,
1:16:43
we just debate the way a player would.
1:16:46
I would,
1:16:47
I've got to think they're getting
1:16:48
suspended.
1:16:48
Okay.
1:16:50
And refs don't – it's a part-time –
1:16:53
they get paid per game.
1:16:55
Okay.
1:16:55
So if they're suspended,
1:16:56
they would lose their game check.
1:17:01
All right, guys.
1:17:03
We are done.
1:17:05
