0:02
Breaking news, everybody.
0:04
MapQuest now has an app.
0:08
Go figure.
0:20
I love the chase and the hunt and
0:22
I set the pace when I'm running.
0:23
I always take what I want and I
0:25
always give it one hundred.
0:26
Don't need a bank, no I'm funded.
0:28
Play the game like it's nothing.
0:29
I'm always thankful for something.
0:31
Don't take for granted, stay humble.
0:32
Now wake up!
0:34
It's time to look at the enemy.
0:36
Look in the mirror if he is no
0:38
friend to me.
0:39
It's not working out,
0:40
maybe it's the chemistry.
0:42
It's time to break down.
0:48
it's lunchtime what is going on everybody
0:52
welcome to lunchtime with the clydesdale
0:54
and the cowboy we are kicking it off
0:59
live um yeah before we went live on
1:02
the air cory was telling me that uh
1:06
map quest had a commercial that said they
1:09
have now they've created an app uh maybe
1:15
five years too late maybe
1:20
I just found it absolutely hilarious that
1:25
today in twenty twenty six,
1:27
I just heard a commercial where they were
1:28
like MapQuest is back and now available in
1:33
the app store.
1:33
And I'm like,
1:34
it's we've had apps for seventeen or so
1:36
years.
1:37
And MapQuest is finally like, hey, man,
1:40
people are stopped downloading our maps.
1:42
Like,
1:43
maybe we should do something about that.
1:47
Mark Phillips says maybe they can partner
1:49
with TomTom.
1:52
i had a tom tom i did not
1:56
have a tom tom i did uh i
1:58
did have i think like an early earlier
2:00
model when gorman was just a a navigation
2:03
thing but it never did work right funny
2:08
enough i tom tom you could download
2:10
different voices to read you the maps
2:13
Um,
2:14
and we had Darth Vader and this is
2:16
when I was living like down South and,
2:19
and yeah, use the force, uh, you know,
2:24
weird stuff like that.
2:25
And, uh, and I'm,
2:27
wasn't even a star Wars fan.
2:29
I just hated the normal,
2:30
like robotic voice.
2:32
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
2:33
No,
2:33
I always set mine to something foreign.
2:36
It's usually a female voice and either
2:39
Australian or English accent.
2:41
Oh, my gosh.
2:42
Speaking of accents, my wife,
2:46
and I know I say a lot about
2:47
her on the show, the other night,
2:49
she's trying to do different accents,
2:52
and she is failing miserably at every
2:56
single one.
2:57
Everyone is coming out the exact same
3:00
accent.
3:01
It reminded me of like Joey Tribbiani on
3:03
Friends.
3:05
Like everything came out of Jamaican
3:07
accent.
3:12
I don't know what accent she was trying.
3:17
Is she in her comedian phase?
3:18
I need some contacts here.
3:23
We were watching a show with...
3:26
we were watching top chef and there are
3:27
people from all over the world on top
3:29
chef.
3:29
Right.
3:31
And, and I just, I was like,
3:34
you have to stop.
3:35
None of these are good.
3:38
None of these are worth your,
3:40
your hard work into it.
3:42
None of them are even close to a
3:44
real accent.
3:46
I, you just, you just have to stop.
3:50
I don't know what you got going on,
3:52
but I'm going to need you to go
3:52
ahead and not do that anymore, please.
3:57
um yeah daniel arnson the uh tom tom's
4:02
darth vader commercial is one of the goats
4:04
it is uh vicky does accents all the
4:08
time and her husband tries to copy and
4:11
just can't that that's what happens like i
4:13
do an accent and she tries to talk
4:15
back to me in that accent and it
4:17
ain't even close you're just looking at
4:19
her like what are you doing
4:22
I'm like,
4:22
you're like that tone deaf singer that
4:26
thinks they're singing like Adele and
4:29
you're like not even in tune.
4:33
Not only do you not sound like Adele,
4:35
you don't sound like anybody.
4:39
Like I was trying to use that example,
4:40
like you can sing,
4:41
you can hear the tone.
4:43
Why can you not hear the difference in
4:45
the accents?
4:46
It's fantastic.
4:53
Oh, it's bad.
4:54
It's bad.
5:00
Sounding like a dud, a dud.
5:02
Yeah.
5:02
Instead of Adele.
5:05
Joseph Ramirez, ladies and gentlemen,
5:06
he'll be here all week.
5:08
Tippy bartenders.
5:13
You know what the difference between a bad
5:14
joke and a dad joke is?
5:21
did not hit me with it the first
5:23
letter i walked right into that right into
5:29
it man right into it um well boys
5:33
i said okay to doing a partner competition
5:35
with someone way fitter than me instant
5:37
regret that is the most fun larry those
5:40
are the most fun they push you to
5:43
the limit
5:45
it would be the most rewarding experience
5:47
of your life because there were,
5:49
my best friend was always way fitter than
5:51
me.
5:52
We would do partner comps and thank God
5:55
he's an understanding human being,
5:58
but I would give everything I had to
6:01
the point of like vomiting out back after
6:03
every event.
6:05
And they were the most rewarding
6:06
experiences of my life.
6:08
You'll be better for it.
6:10
I guarantee get you out of your comfort
6:13
zone.
6:15
I don't have a lot of time today.
6:17
My wife is actually having cancer removed
6:20
as we speak.
6:21
So if I get a phone call,
6:22
I may have to have you run the
6:23
show for just two minutes.
6:25
I'm pretty sure.
6:27
She has some melanoma on the back of
6:29
her leg.
6:30
She's having it removed.
6:32
And then as soon as she gets home,
6:33
I've got to go to the cardiologist to
6:36
find out what's going on with me.
6:38
So short show today.
6:39
But I did want to talk about Lisa
6:41
Wells.
6:42
If you did not see it...
6:45
Brooke and Sydney made a post on Instagram
6:48
talking about their mother and how usually
6:51
they talk about their fitness journeys and
6:53
things like that,
6:54
but they had to talk about something
6:57
serious,
6:57
and that serious thing was that their
7:00
mother has brain cancer.
7:02
And I have met Lisa several times.
7:06
Back when we had Sydney on...
7:10
our show back when it was Kat and
7:13
myself and Kat befriended Sydney and they
7:18
became really good friends.
7:20
And every time we went to a competition,
7:22
they were always like talking and hanging
7:25
out and I got to know Lisa through
7:27
that relationship.
7:29
and every event i ever went to lisa
7:32
was the kindest sweetest woman in the
7:36
world and my thoughts and prayers go out
7:38
to her and her family and hopefully she
7:42
has god gives her the strength to fight
7:45
through this and uh and gets her to
7:48
the other side i know i say some
7:50
things about her daughter brooke
7:53
It's not that I don't like Brooke.
7:54
It's that Brooke just never does an
7:55
interview with me.
7:56
And so I don't root for her.
7:58
But I do root for Sydney because Sydney,
8:00
we did her first podcast on this channel.
8:03
And Sydney has been really cool to both
8:07
Kat and I. And through that,
8:11
we met Lisa.
8:12
Lisa's awesome.
8:14
I want Lisa to kick cancer in the
8:17
ass.
8:18
Absolutely.
8:19
So...
8:20
Man,
8:20
it has not been a great week for
8:23
CrossFit space parents.
8:26
Chase's dad.
8:28
Now, Wells' mom.
8:30
Good Lord, man.
8:31
Praying for all of them.
8:32
Praying for every single last one of them.
8:34
So, after that heavy news,
8:36
let's hit something light.
8:38
Yes.
8:40
Andrew Sten sent me this the other day
8:42
because, you know, Andrew knows me.
8:47
What is my biggest pet peeve in the
8:48
world?
8:54
Have you seen this?
8:57
Something that has hit the CrossFit space
9:02
hit the NBA about a week ago.
9:06
And that is this.
9:08
Did she get hit on the head with
9:11
something?
9:13
Or did she trip and hit her head?
9:21
Let's see what happens here.
9:33
the cameraman stepped on the freaking
9:35
court and when the ref was running down
9:41
bam bro are you freaking kidding me why
9:51
He's not even looking at the game and
9:54
he's still on the court.
9:55
It's not okay.
9:59
This is not okay.
10:05
We had what week two of the open
10:07
where the camera woman is in steps right
10:10
in front of Lucy Campbell during the open
10:13
workout.
10:15
And then you have this jackass stepping on
10:18
the court and not even with his back
10:21
turned to the action.
10:24
Thankfully,
10:24
Lucy's judge had enough wherewithal to
10:27
push that camera person out of the way
10:30
so that nothing crazy happened.
10:32
This poor lady ran.
10:34
That had to hurt.
10:35
I am certain.
10:37
I am going to see it for the
10:39
one millionth time.
10:41
the lenses on today's cameras and the
10:44
quality of pictures you can take.
10:47
Like,
10:49
The megapixels, like my camera, whatever,
10:52
twenty-some megapixels,
10:55
I can take a shot from center field
10:57
of a batter at home plate and then
10:59
blow it up later and it never degrades
11:02
because of the amount of pixels on that
11:06
frame.
11:08
Video cameras have zoom lenses on them.
11:12
You can get everything you need from a
11:14
distance.
11:15
You do not need to be on a
11:16
playing surface of a sport.
11:22
You got no argument from me.
11:23
That's insane.
11:25
It's absolutely insane.
11:26
It makes no sense whatsoever.
11:28
It's stupid.
11:29
That's dangerous, reckless.
11:32
I mean, pick an adjective.
11:34
I'm not for it.
11:38
That's bad juju.
11:41
That's gross.
11:42
And it impacted this game.
11:43
They had to stop the game.
11:45
The refs concussed.
11:47
Yeah, the refs got CTE protocol now.
11:50
What the hell?
11:52
And not because she got ran over by
11:54
a player or somebody threw an errant pass
11:58
and they hit her in the back of
11:58
the head or something that would happen
12:01
while reffing.
12:02
Something like you're kind of in the mix
12:05
and somebody takes a charge and they fall
12:07
down on you or something like that.
12:08
Any one of those things could happen to
12:10
a ref while they're out there.
12:11
She got hit by somebody who did not
12:13
belong on the court.
12:15
That's a problem.
12:16
It's ridiculous.
12:17
And like I said,
12:19
not only do they interfere with the action
12:22
frequently,
12:25
but they block the views of the
12:28
spectators.
12:29
Yeah.
12:30
The dude was courtside.
12:32
You know how much courtside tickets are?
12:33
I'm going to tell you this.
12:35
They ain't cheap.
12:35
No.
12:37
No.
12:38
And here's this jackass running around
12:42
with a giant camera rig.
12:44
And Mark makes a great point.
12:45
This wasn't an accident.
12:46
This was negligence.
12:47
Correct.
12:51
Correct.
12:53
Most impressive refs, hockey, skating,
12:55
no pads.
12:57
And they get in the middle of fights.
12:58
And most of them are half the size
13:01
of the players.
13:03
Well,
13:03
they get in the middle of fights that
13:04
have been going on for a little while.
13:05
Well, they're not.
13:07
Let them wear themselves out a little bit.
13:09
And then I'm going to get in there
13:10
because I'm not getting in there in the
13:12
middle of that.
13:13
Lost your damn mind.
13:15
But they don't have to worry about people
13:16
coming onto the ice from media because the
13:19
glass is so high that people can't get
13:22
through there, right?
13:24
Can you imagine if it wasn't?
13:29
Because you know how stupid people are.
13:32
That's bound to happen.
13:34
If you did not have all that glass
13:36
and it's there to protect the people from
13:37
the pups flying around,
13:38
I'm well aware of that.
13:39
But if it's not there for whatever reason,
13:41
you would have idiots...
13:44
Trying to get on the ice with a
13:45
camera so they can get, oh,
13:46
I got to get this shot.
13:48
No, you don't.
13:50
You really don't.
13:51
It's not necessary.
13:57
The funny thing is my daughter did an
13:59
internship with the Columbus Blue Jackets.
14:02
And there are little holes in the glass
14:06
where you can stick your lens through.
14:10
So you can get a clean shot without
14:12
like the stuff glare and all that.
14:14
It's just,
14:15
it's just big enough to get your lens
14:16
through.
14:17
Perfect.
14:18
And you take your snaps and go, um,
14:20
you put it right there too.
14:23
Like I'm not putting anywhere else.
14:24
I'm putting it right there.
14:29
I'm not doing this with it.
14:30
And I said, no,
14:31
we're going to keep it right there because
14:32
it don't take but a half a second
14:33
before now.
14:33
You got a puck flying at a hundred
14:34
miles an hour and it just shattered your
14:37
lens because you're an idiot and stuck it
14:39
through the hole instead of in the hole.
14:43
WWE has a down pat.
14:44
Never know that they're there until
14:47
they're part of the script.
14:51
Facts.
14:53
My son just started watching wrestling
14:55
again,
14:55
which means we've been watching wrestling
14:57
at the house.
14:58
Yeah.
14:58
Well, speaking of wrestling,
15:00
the announcement was made yesterday.
15:01
I saw Barbell Spin puts him out this
15:03
morning.
15:03
I've been digging into this since after
15:05
yesterday's show.
15:06
American Gladiators is coming back on
15:08
Amazon Prime, April seventeenth, I think.
15:11
That's my birthday.
15:12
It is.
15:14
And Danny Spiegel is a part of it.
15:18
Jordan Chefs, if anybody knows her,
15:20
she's a semifinal athlete from Michigan,
15:23
has been posting on her social that she's
15:26
had to keep this a secret.
15:28
I'm wondering if she is a contestant.
15:31
Oh.
15:32
Because I cannot find her as part of
15:33
the cast.
15:34
Right.
15:37
So I'm wondering if we're going to have
15:38
a CrossFitter as a contestant and a
15:41
CrossFitter as a gladiator.
15:44
We've had this discussion before about...
15:47
who would make good wrestlers who would
15:48
make a good gladiators and whatnot.
15:50
And Danny's always been at the top of
15:52
that list, man.
15:52
I think she's going to kill it.
15:55
So what I love and I,
15:56
and I pulled it up just so I
15:58
can share it with you guys is this
16:02
is the gladiator website.
16:04
This is the cast.
16:09
So here's Danny Spiegel.
16:11
And what is the first thing they say
16:13
about her?
16:14
Seven-time CrossFit Games athlete.
16:19
And then,
16:20
and Titan Games Season Two champion.
16:24
But they are saying the word CrossFit.
16:27
They're saying CrossFit Games.
16:29
And they are promoting CrossFit with this.
16:36
So that means they probably got CrossFit's
16:38
permission.
16:40
Or they have a season assist on the
16:42
way.
16:43
Yeah, I'm sure they probably do.
16:47
I mean,
16:48
it's just a fact at this point, right?
16:49
She is a seven time CrossFit games athlete
16:52
and she did win Titan games.
16:54
I watched that one.
16:56
So pretty cool.
16:57
She's going to be a gladiator.
16:59
If you have followed social media at all,
17:02
some of the, like the Australian version,
17:04
the UK version have used CrossFit athletes
17:08
as part of their cast as well.
17:10
Um,
17:13
I can't remember his name now.
17:16
Big dude was a team athlete,
17:17
tried to go individual and he's, oh gosh.
17:21
You know how many people that could be?
17:24
He was on,
17:25
he was on the Craig Ritchie podcast a
17:26
ton back when they were actually talking
17:30
CrossFit and with athletes.
17:32
Before Craig Ritchie decided he was an
17:34
athlete and then channel just about him.
17:36
Oh man.
17:37
Yeah.
17:41
I can picture him.
17:44
Althea Boone and Con Porter were both
17:47
gladiators in Australia.
17:51
I could see Con being a gladiator.
17:53
I think he would dig that.
17:56
Mike DeVito says she'll excel on the show.
17:58
No squat test.
17:59
Listen.
18:01
Zach George.
18:01
Yes, CrossFat.
18:02
Zach George.
18:02
Zach George.
18:05
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
18:08
Yes.
18:09
I'm sorry, but that's funny.
18:10
Thanks, Mike.
18:10
That was funny.
18:12
Danny is a poster child for bad movement
18:14
standards.
18:15
She moves way better than a lot of
18:17
people.
18:18
Yeah.
18:19
It's just that she fights back and she
18:21
gets the views,
18:23
so that's who we're going to pick on.
18:24
A hundred percent.
18:27
And yes, has she had some bad movement?
18:29
Yes, but it ain't the worst.
18:32
No.
18:35
I'll refer back to Sean Woodland,
18:38
the voice of the CrossFit Games,
18:39
when he said,
18:40
you don't know how good you have to
18:41
be to suck at the CrossFit Games.
18:45
You don't know how good you have to
18:47
move to get chastised for your movement at
18:50
the CrossFit Games.
18:51
So she still has to move pretty damn
18:53
well, even though we, yes,
18:54
everybody picks on her for the squat depth
18:56
and the other, you know,
18:58
various other things,
18:58
but you still have to be ridiculous in
19:02
order to make it there.
19:03
So moving right along.
19:07
And she's one of the most athletic people
19:09
in the CrossFit field.
19:11
And she proves that every time there's a
19:12
duel at Rogue,
19:14
When she's going up and over those logs
19:16
and sliding and doing all the crazy shit
19:20
that only her and Semenza and Prevo can
19:24
do because they're athletes and not just
19:28
fitness people,
19:30
this is going to be awesome for her.
19:32
Yeah.
19:34
I've always loved Gladiators.
19:35
I watched it when I was a kid.
19:36
I watched the – was it the Netflix
19:42
thing about the Gladiators?
19:43
Yes.
19:44
It's a Netflix special that I just had
19:46
not that long ago.
19:47
I'll watch that because that was also
19:49
interesting.
19:49
I am going to watch this.
19:51
And it comes out on my birthday,
19:52
so why wouldn't I?
19:53
I am a gladiator's nut.
19:55
I think I've seen every episode.
20:00
And speaking of good,
20:01
you don't know how good your sleep is
20:02
going to be once you get your third
20:05
Z. Yeah, you just don't know.
20:08
You don't realize how good it can be
20:13
Until you get your third Z.
20:15
We just teed that up.
20:17
And Vicky just, I mean,
20:18
that's a grand slam all the way out.
20:21
I love when my chat helps me out.
20:23
That's fantastic.

20:47
It works, folks.
20:50
It works.
20:52
I do like this from CrossFat when he
20:53
said, it's like when Scalabrini said,
20:55
I'm closer to LeBron James than you are
20:58
to me.
21:00
That is a fact.
21:02
It's a fact.
21:05
Have you ever watched Shrinking?
21:07
No, I haven't.
21:09
It's on Apple, right?
21:11
Yeah, that's why.
21:12
We don't have that one.
21:13
Well, in the show,
21:14
Harrison Ford has Parkinson's.
21:17
Oh, I saw that clip.
21:18
Is that what that's from?
21:19
Harrison Ford?
21:21
Because it goes with the third Z thing,
21:22
right?
21:23
Okay, yeah, yeah.
21:24
So there's a part in the show where
21:25
he talks about trying to keep the shakes
21:29
down and that he's only going to use
21:31
the medicine outside of his home and
21:34
outside of his circle because he trusts
21:36
them to be okay with it.
21:38
And then he tells his wife in the
21:39
last episode, now it's in both hands.
21:43
And she goes, are you okay with that?
21:45
And he goes, well,
21:46
I have twenty four hour jazz hands.
21:56
Harrison Ford is a national treasure.
21:59
I thought you were going to say,
22:03
I saw the conversation between him and,
22:08
oh gosh, darn it.
22:09
Of course, I can't say his name.
22:11
Back to the future.
22:12
Michael J. Fox.
22:13
Yep.
22:14
That is,
22:15
I laughed out loud so hard because like,
22:20
first of all,
22:20
I don't think I've ever heard Michael J.
22:21
Fox cuss like once.
22:26
And that was well worth the,
22:28
the two and a half minutes or however
22:30
long it lasted.
22:30
And then just talking back and forth to
22:32
each other.
22:32
That was outstanding.
22:34
Uh,
22:35
someone take away Harrison Ford's airplane
22:37
keys though.
22:40
Dude,
22:41
he is a national treasure man and his
22:44
acting is still great.
22:47
Like this show,
22:48
like shrinking is one of my top three
22:50
shows on TV right now.
22:58
Jason Bourne asked,
22:59
will Thirdsy have a booth at Syndicate?
23:01
I don't know.
23:03
It's an excellent question.
23:04
They should.
23:05
I don't know.
23:06
I don't work for the company.
23:07
I just represent the company.
23:11
They should,
23:12
although it'd be a weird thing.
23:13
Be like, hey,
23:13
come try some of our Thirdsy.
23:15
Why just pass it out?
23:17
Coma sleep.
23:19
Events are going on.
23:22
He's crash landed like more than two
23:23
times.
23:25
I don't know if you've ever seen the
23:29
best Indiana Jones movie, the third one,
23:33
when him and his dad are getting into
23:35
that plane that's attached to the bottom
23:37
of the blimp.
23:38
And he says, oh, gosh darn it.
23:44
Sean Connery says, can you fly?
23:47
Yes.
23:48
Can you fly?
23:48
And he said, fly?
23:49
Yes.
23:50
Land?
23:51
No.
23:56
Indiana Jones was my favorite movie as a
23:58
kid Raiders of the Lost Ark saw it
24:00
like twelve times in the theater one
24:03
because we had one movie theater in my
24:04
small town and it never left so if
24:07
you wanted to watch a movie it had
24:08
to be Raiders of the Lost Ark that's
24:11
fair but I will give you three and
24:13
one are pretty close yeah and two is
24:17
a throwaway four never happened no no no
24:23
And five was an,
24:25
was a nice going away gift.
24:28
I still haven't finished it.
24:29
I started watching it and then I got
24:31
maybe twenty,
24:32
thirty minutes in and I think Jennifer
24:34
fell asleep and I just couldn't,
24:36
I didn't have the wherewithal to be able
24:37
to finish it all right.
24:38
But yeah, three is, it's right up there.
24:45
One in three is,
24:47
that's the only ones I consider to be
24:48
canon at this point.
24:51
Um,
24:53
Again, Joseph, four does not exist.
24:56
It's like Rocky V does not exist.
24:59
I like the idea that they were going
25:01
with.
25:01
Does that make sense?
25:03
Not the execution.
25:05
It's the WFP.
25:07
I like the idea.
25:09
Correct.
25:10
But the execution leaves a lot to be
25:12
desired.
25:13
Like that was...
25:16
okay yeah he's got a son he doesn't
25:18
know he's his son and for some reason
25:20
it's shy labov who knows whatever like shy
25:24
labov's been in some stuff where i was
25:26
like okay yeah this dude seems like kind
25:28
of scary like kind of you know but
25:30
when he was trying to play tough guy
25:32
fifties dude whatever in that movie it
25:35
just did not work at all and it
25:38
it was just bad
25:40
Mike DeVito says, I will still say,
25:42
get off my plane when I need someone
25:44
to get off my lift.
25:48
Raiders is still one of my top favorites.
25:51
He chose poorly.
26:00
Four was rough, but I never saw five.
26:03
Five's a nice going away gift is what
26:05
I would say.
26:06
It's not on the level of one in
26:08
three,
26:09
but it's a nice kind of summing it
26:11
up.
26:18
The Temple of Doom heart thing scared the
26:21
crap out of me.
26:22
The monkey brains got me.
26:23
So gross.
26:26
And the problem with two is you're not
26:28
going after this like really cool relic.
26:31
It's just gold.
26:33
Like, the first one,
26:34
the Ark of the Covenant is a really
26:36
cool thing to go after.
26:37
The third one,
26:38
you're going for Jesus' chalice.
26:40
Like, really cool.
26:42
Middle one, hey,
26:42
we're just trying to find gold.
26:44
And they weren't even trying to find gold.
26:47
It's not like that was the plot from
26:49
the whole thing.
26:50
In three, it was like, hey,
26:51
your dad was doing this, you know,
26:53
looking for this thing, and now he's gone,
26:55
and you got to go find him,
26:55
and blah, blah, blah,
26:56
all this other stuff.
26:57
In number one, like,
26:58
he started off doing one thing and ended
27:00
up... In two...
27:02
They got away from somebody with some fake
27:05
diamonds.
27:06
FYI,
27:06
it was the worst-looking fake diamonds
27:08
I've ever seen in my entire life.
27:10
Ended up on a plane that they weren't
27:12
supposed to be on, crashed it,
27:14
and just got thrust into the middle of
27:16
this situation in Nepal.
27:18
Like, the whole thing was just not good.
27:22
I mean, I still watched it.
27:24
I will say that.
27:25
It's another one.
27:26
If it's on,
27:27
I'll probably end up watching it.
27:28
But, like, no,
27:31
one in three is where it's at.
27:33
Harrison hated Star Wars so much they
27:35
ended every movie with the possibility he
27:37
could be written out.
27:41
They all came back for the reboot.
27:44
They all came back for the money grab.
27:55
Also,
27:55
the biggest takeaway from Rocky V is Union
27:57
Cain was a paper champion and never won
28:00
the title from Balboa.
28:03
I think me and Mike DeVito would hang
28:05
out very, very well together in public,
28:06
but we probably shouldn't be left alone
28:08
together because that's the kind of shit
28:10
that we would get heated about,
28:14
like telling other people about it.
28:16
So Rocky is my favorite movie of all
28:18
time.
28:19
And I say that Rocky V doesn't exist.
28:21
I've still probably watched it probably
28:23
five times.
28:24
Sure.
28:26
It's so dumb.
28:27
Like,
28:27
why do I keep subjecting myself to that
28:30
movie?
28:31
Hoping it gets better.
28:33
Yeah,
28:33
I feel the same way about the beginning
28:34
of Temple of Doom.
28:36
The Temple of Doom,
28:37
I'm sitting there watching it.
28:38
The first ten minutes where they're
28:41
sitting at the table and he's trying to
28:43
get the diamond thing back and there's a
28:44
big production going on and whatnot.
28:47
And I'm like, this is absolutely terrible.
28:50
I understand what they're trying to do,
28:52
but holy smokes,
28:53
this is absolutely terrible.
28:55
And I will sit there and watch the
28:57
entire thing.
28:58
They crash land,
28:59
they slide down a mountain.
29:01
on a raft that they somehow landed in
29:04
the middle of off the plane.
29:06
Like, come on, dude, for real.
29:09
And I'm going to watch the entire thing.
29:11
The Tommy gun was Tommy gun actually
29:13
turned out to be a sad,
29:14
crazy reality story.
29:16
Yeah.
29:16
If we only knew.
29:17
Yeah.
29:18
That Tommy Morrison really was Tommy gun.
29:22
And we were going to see it all
29:23
crash before our very own eyes.
29:26
Spectacularly crash.
29:29
Clubber Lang's dialogue does not age well.
29:32
Well,
29:32
apparently I don't then because I love the
29:34
Clubber Lang dialogue.
29:35
I could.
29:36
What's your prediction for the fight?
29:38
My prediction.
29:40
Pain.
29:42
Come on, bro.
29:44
It's Mr. T for crying out loud.
29:45
How can you?
29:47
What you mad at?
29:50
And so we wanted to take Adrian home
29:51
with him.
29:52
Yeah.
29:52
Yeah.
29:55
Mike Tyson told people he was going to
29:57
eat their children.
29:58
Right.
29:59
Exactly.
30:00
And that happened in real life,
30:01
not in a movie.
30:03
And you mad at Clubber Lang?
30:04
Nah, dude.
30:06
No way.
30:14
Such a good movie.
30:15
Anyway, we really got off the track,
30:17
but that's okay.
30:18
Not much going on in today's news.
30:22
Just want to finish it up with
30:26
going to finish i'll save the the well
30:28
no let's do that we have a couple
30:30
data points now has your idea of who
30:36
is going to contend for the crossfit games
30:38
changed now that we've had wadapalooza and
30:42
the open
30:45
I still,
30:45
I still got my money still on Dow.
30:48
It really, really is.
30:49
I,
30:50
somebody said it yesterday and I forget
30:51
where it was at,
30:52
or it might've been this morning whenever
30:53
they were talking to Nick Johnson,
30:54
that somebody could teach down how to run.
30:58
He wins the games period.
31:01
But in that same conversation,
31:03
if you're going to the ranch and that
31:05
means probably some stuff going on there
31:10
with some running, um,
31:15
That does not bode well for Dallin.
31:19
Didn't bode well for Dallin.
31:22
I still got him on top.
31:24
I still think he can,
31:27
and I still think he will.
31:28
My prediction has not changed.
31:30
I will say this on the female side
31:32
as well, is that Lucy,
31:34
it looks incredible right now,
31:38
but it's also March.
31:38
March.
31:40
And we haven't seen Alex do anything yet.
31:44
So I picked Alex.
31:45
I probably would stay with Alex, but man,
31:49
Lucy looks good and she does.
31:52
And I, her mindset is so good.
31:54
And the one thing that I do know
31:57
for a fact now is Lucy has that.
32:01
You're going to have to kill me to
32:03
beat me.
32:04
Yes.
32:07
I would say this.
32:08
I'm not sure that Alex has the matching
32:12
mindset yet.
32:15
Yet.
32:16
And I really want to see her on
32:20
the floor individually,
32:21
and I want to see her.
32:23
So I know I keep reverting back to
32:26
this, but my coach, Brandon Luckett,
32:28
has said several times,
32:29
I will cough up blood on the floor
32:31
before I quit.
32:33
before I let somebody beat me, right?
32:35
And I feel like Lucy's definitely in that
32:38
mindset, right?
32:39
She's going to do whatever it takes.
32:40
No amount of pain is going to slow
32:41
her down, going to stop her,
32:43
whatever the case may be.
32:47
Just like you,
32:47
I'm not sure that we've seen that from
32:49
Alex, but I am very,
32:52
very curious to see what she's going to
32:54
look like at a semifinal.
32:58
coming back from the injury,
32:59
coming back from everything that she's
33:00
come back for.
33:01
Because for the team competition at
33:03
Waterpalooza over the weekend,
33:04
she looked fantastic, right?
33:06
She looked like herself.
33:08
But she's also going with two other
33:09
people.
33:10
So you're getting a lot of rest.
33:11
You know, you can kind of sprint stuff,
33:13
blah, blah, whatever.
33:14
But I want to see it.
33:18
I really, really do.
33:20
CrossFit kind of nails it for me.
33:22
Alex gives me pre-win Tia vibes.
33:25
She has to get over that hump of
33:29
that mindset.
33:30
What I will tell you is Daniel's got
33:32
it on the nail on the head.
33:35
Paige Rogers has that.
33:37
Paige Rogers is impressing the shit out of
33:40
me every time I see her.
33:41
She has moved up my leaderboard
33:43
tremendously with the data points we have
33:47
seen thus far.
33:49
Yep.
33:51
So I...
33:54
I had Emma Lawson in my podium.
33:57
I might put Paige Rogers in my podium
33:59
going into the games.
34:01
If she stays on the same trajectory that
34:03
she's been on,
34:04
which has been absolutely insane,
34:06
a couple of things that we've seen her
34:07
in, right?
34:10
She's fighting.
34:10
She's in there.
34:12
And I will say this, dude.
34:14
We've talked about this several different
34:15
times.
34:16
The women's field, no Tia.
34:19
No Laura.
34:21
How wide open can it be, right?
34:24
So no Tia, no Laura,
34:27
and in the men's field,
34:28
being what it is,
34:29
you got five guys who are in contention
34:31
for the podium.
34:34
And then on the men's side,
34:35
James is just convincing me more and more
34:38
that on any given weekend,
34:41
that dude can win any event.
34:46
He is becoming less and less program
34:48
dependent with each year moving forward.
34:55
It's going to be just read Daniel's
34:59
comment.
35:00
I am smart.
35:02
I am smart.
35:02
More people should listen to me.
35:03
Yeah.
35:06
Uh, the men's side is wide open.
35:10
The women's side is why it's not just
35:12
wide open,
35:13
but it's shaping up to be more of
35:15
a,
35:15
a race and more of a dog fight
35:17
when we actually get to the games.
35:19
Right.
35:20
Between Lucy, Alex page.
35:25
uh emma lawson uh shit um good lord
35:34
why can't i think that she's the youngest
35:36
one not the youngest one out there but
35:37
one of the youngest ones out there olivia
35:39
thank you don't sleep on olivia don't
35:45
sleep on danielle brandon don't sleep on
35:49
uh ariel lowen i mean good lord dude
35:51
like
35:52
You're looking at,
35:53
if there's five on the men's side,
35:54
there's probably eight on the women's side
35:57
who have a legitimate shot at getting
35:59
somewhere on that podium.
36:01
What makes it tough is because of the
36:06
way the field is set up this year
36:07
with no Tia, no Laura,
36:09
it means middling is going to play a
36:11
factor.
36:13
If you have a bad event,
36:15
a lot of people can now middle between
36:18
you and your closest competitor and either
36:20
stretch their lead or reduce yours,
36:25
which makes it a wild year to try
36:28
to pick.
36:32
That's where the Abbey Dolmets of the
36:34
world come in, right?
36:37
Who will be in that middle ground,
36:38
who have a home run event
36:41
She has to show me more at the
36:42
games before I name her.
36:44
I don't mean for a podium spot or
36:46
fighting for one,
36:46
but she's in that ground where she can
36:48
have a home run event and all of
36:52
a sudden,
36:53
if you're not being consistent all
36:54
weekend,
36:56
she's one who can spoil people and mess
36:59
up somebody else's podium.
37:02
Kringle is going to mess some things up.
37:04
Ariel is going to mess some things up.
37:06
A hundred percent.
37:07
It's going to be fun to watch, dude.
37:09
It's really going to be fun to watch.
37:10
I can't, all the, uh,
37:12
the semifinals are going to be really,
37:14
really engaging.
37:15
I think to kind of catch on,
37:18
I hope we don't see anything crazy as
37:21
far as like programming wise, uh,
37:23
from that, you know, that, that can,
37:26
cause that can make a difference depending
37:28
on who who's in it and who's not,
37:29
uh,
37:31
Well,
37:32
in any of like the people we knit,
37:33
like Amy could be competing for podium.
37:35
Ariel could be competing for program,
37:37
but if they're not,
37:38
they're going to mess things up on the
37:40
leaderboard.
37:41
Correct.
37:42
Like it's, it's crazy, but this man,
37:45
people just know how to push my buttons.
37:47
I really don't think Laura would be a
37:49
threat to any of them.
37:49
She's been out too long.
37:51
No, I don't count the WFP as competing.
37:54
I don't care what you think about the
37:55
WFP,
37:56
but she kicked everybody's ass at rogue
37:58
and everybody was there.
38:02
to say that she doesn't have the talent
38:03
to win or isn't the most talented person
38:06
on the floor.
38:08
There's nobody in the field that has
38:09
proven they can beat her on a consistent
38:12
level other than one movement.
38:19
And there's not going to be three workouts
38:21
with handstand pushups.
38:22
So, so
38:28
I think people just don't like her.
38:30
Like yesterday's conversation of everybody
38:33
loves Colton.
38:34
So they kind of excuse some of the
38:37
flaws that are in his game.
38:39
Everybody hates Laura.
38:41
So they forget that she's really damn
38:43
good.
38:45
Well, it's just easier to overlook.
38:47
If you,
38:47
if you feel some type of way about
38:49
somebody and you can take a look at
38:51
what they're doing or what they're not
38:52
doing, you'd be like, eh, whatever.
38:55
And especially like,
38:59
Her not participating, right?
39:04
Her not...
39:08
her not participating in the game season
39:10
and only doing WFP,
39:14
people take that as a sign of weakness
39:17
because they're like, oh,
39:19
you feeling some type of way,
39:22
whatever the case may be.
39:23
And even though clearly she's still fit,
39:26
like she's still training,
39:27
she's still doing all the things,
39:28
she's just not participating in,
39:30
quote unquote, our season.
39:33
So people take that as she's scared or
39:36
she's whatever.
39:37
And then you'll project that out further
39:38
and be like, well,
39:39
she's not any good because why,
39:40
if she was any good,
39:41
she would be competing over here and try
39:43
to win a championship.
39:46
You,
39:46
you say people are calling that a weakness
39:48
that she doesn't do the game season.
39:50
If she was fighting for a belief that
39:53
you shared with her,
39:55
you would view that as a strength.
39:57
I agree.
39:58
One hundred percent.
39:59
It's only because her belief is in
40:01
something that you don't agree with that
40:04
you're saying it's a weakness.
40:06
Absolutely.
40:07
And I think a lot of people feel
40:09
that way in our space.
40:11
Like a shit ton of them.
40:15
Which is why she gets the hate that
40:16
she does.
40:17
But to take a stand against something that
40:19
you believe in.
40:22
Oh, look.
40:22
It's not even the mainstream thought at
40:25
this point.
40:27
And to sit out the prime of your
40:28
career over it.
40:31
I got nothing but respect for as far
40:35
as that kind of stuff is concerned.
40:37
Absolutely.
40:39
but and i'm not saying i'm one that
40:40
thinks that i'm not stupid enough to think
40:42
that she couldn't come back in here and
40:44
be an absolute problem an absolute menace
40:48
i'm not that naive by any stretch of
40:50
imagination i'm just telling you that
40:53
that's probably how people think they look
40:55
at and go well she's not doing the
40:56
season so to hell with her she sucks
41:01
I understand what you're saying, Daniel,
41:03
but you're just looking at WFP.
41:05
Rogue is the next rung below the games.
41:10
It is the closest comparison to the games.
41:13
I would say so.
41:15
And the field is the closest to what
41:18
you see at the games.
41:20
And the field is reduced,
41:21
so you have less middling there.
41:28
You can't only look at WFP.
41:30
You have to look at her rogue
41:31
performances.
41:33
It's her overall body of work.
41:36
It's her overall body of work.
41:37
It's not like she's sitting on the couch
41:39
right now eating Cheetos and watching TV.
41:44
She's still training.
41:44
She's still a Red Bull athlete.
41:46
She's still doing things.
41:47
It might not be anything that you
41:48
necessarily agree with,
41:50
but she is still doing things that are
41:52
competitive, functional fitness.
41:54
I mean, be that as it may.
41:57
Why do you think Laura didn't do
41:59
Wadapalooza?
42:00
Well,
42:00
to fly from Hungary to Miami to do
42:03
five events is a big ask.
42:08
Yeah.
42:09
In two days.
42:12
So for seventy five grand.
42:17
For first place,
42:18
that's only the first place.
42:19
And to be honest,
42:22
CrossFit was connected with Waterpalooza
42:24
this year.
42:25
She has a thing against CrossFit and what
42:29
happened in twenty twenty four.
42:32
Agree with her or not,
42:33
that is her stance.
42:41
That is her prerogative.
42:42
She's eating Cheetos.
42:45
Yeah.
42:48
You think you can get Cheetos in Hungary?
42:52
Hungarian Cheetos?
42:53
Is that a thing?
42:57
It is Cheetos.
43:00
Cheetos.
43:00
That sounded Japanese.
43:02
That was terrible.
43:03
I don't know.
43:09
I'm in my waist,
43:10
but when it comes to Hungarian accents,
43:12
I've... Oh, I could not even.
43:14
I could not even.
43:15
It'd just be like Eastern Bloc type deal.
43:17
Let's see.
43:17
Hungarian...
43:21
Cheetos.
43:23
They're probably just Cheetos.
43:27
Yeah, that's what they look like.
43:28
They just...
43:31
It's just written in Hungarian.
43:35
There you go.
43:35
All right.
43:39
I got to head out.
43:41
Got to go check on my wife.
43:42
She just came in.
43:43
And I got to head off to my
43:45
doctor's appointment.
43:46
But we'll be back tomorrow.
43:48
Who knows what we'll be talking about
43:49
because...
43:51
Never thought today would be a rocky
43:53
Indiana Jones.
43:55
Hungarian Cheetos.
43:58
But there it is.
44:00
Get your Cheetos, get your MapQuest.
44:03
Let me go print out my map so
44:04
I can get to my appointment.
44:05
Dude, MapQuest, Cheetos,
44:07
and a Mountain Dew.
44:07
All of a sudden, it's not a map.
44:08
It's not a map.
44:08
It's not a map.
44:09
It's not a map.
44:09
It's not a map.
44:10
It's not a map.
44:12
It's not a map.
44:12
It's not a map.
44:12
It's not a map.
44:13
It's not a map.
44:13
It's not a map.
44:14
It's not a map.
44:14
Me on a road trip.
44:15
There it is.
44:17
Talk to you later, guys.
44:19
Peace.
