• 0:42
  brother not bad it is
• 0:43
  graduation week at uh the
• 0:46
  learning residence so
• 0:49
  We had a band-based
• 0:51
  graduation or eighth-grade
• 0:53
  graduation or actual senior graduation?
• 0:57
  Senior, yes, sir.
• 0:59
  So last night was the – well, actually,
• 1:02
  let's back that up a little
• 1:03
  bit even further.
• 1:04
  So Sunday was Brody's
• 1:06
  girlfriend's graduation
• 1:08
  party this past Sunday.
• 1:10
  Last night was the band banquet.
• 1:12
  Tonight is just awards,
• 1:15
  like senior awards in general,
• 1:16
  and then graduation itself is –
• 1:19
  Friday.
• 1:22
  And then Sunday's Mother's Day.
• 1:25
  This is your second graduation of a child?
• 1:31
  Yep.
• 1:31
  I had to go through it once, man.
• 1:33
  Well, it's interesting.
• 1:38
  It's interesting.
• 1:41
  He's a good kid.
• 1:42
  He's a great kid.
• 1:44
  Got a couple awards last night.
• 1:46
  Missed out on one.
• 1:46
  I feel like he deserves...
• 1:49
  just for all the work he's
• 1:49
  done over the past four
• 1:51
  years of being in the band.
• 1:54
  But he is getting ready to
• 1:56
  get started being a college student.
• 2:02
  And where's he heading?
• 2:03
  LSU.
• 2:06
  Come on, dude.
• 2:06
  Go Tigers.
• 2:08
  It wasn't even a question for him.
• 2:10
  He enjoyed messing with my
• 2:11
  wife because he got –
• 2:16
  Once you start getting close,
• 2:17
  especially if you're in an
• 2:18
  organization like the band,
• 2:19
  you start getting letters
• 2:20
  from all over the place.
• 2:22
  He would get stuff from
• 2:23
  Northern Illinois State or whatever.
• 2:25
  He'd be telling Jennifer,
• 2:30
  it's where I'm going right here.
• 2:31
  She's like, no, you're not.
• 2:37
  Answer Meredith's question.
• 2:38
  No, he's not going to USL.
• 2:41
  Excuse me,
• 2:42
  ULL or USL whenever I was there
• 2:44
  or whenever I was in college.
• 2:46
  No, well, he's trying.
• 2:48
  So the golden band from
• 2:50
  Tiger Land is not exactly
• 2:52
  like you don't just walk on.
• 2:54
  There is an application process, tryouts,
• 2:59
  I guess you could say.
• 3:01
  And it goes over the course
• 3:03
  of a couple of different
• 3:04
  months or whatever.
• 3:05
  But he is one hundred
• 3:06
  percent going to give it his best shot.
• 3:09
  Try it out.
• 3:11
  he said even if not even if
• 3:13
  he doesn't make it he's
• 3:14
  gonna try to get into like
• 3:15
  there's percussion groups
• 3:16
  and stuff like that like at
• 3:17
  lsu and uh just be able to
• 3:19
  keep working on his craft
• 3:20
  and try again next year so
• 3:24
  yeah my daughter um she
• 3:26
  played in band all through
• 3:27
  high school went to ohio
• 3:29
  university which is not the
• 3:31
  buckeyes it's the actual
• 3:33
  first ohio university in the state and uh
• 3:38
  they they have what's called
• 3:39
  the marching one ten that
• 3:40
  do a lot of things
• 3:41
  yesterday um and she was
• 3:45
  gonna try out and then
• 3:46
  realize the commitment um
• 3:49
  during college and decided
• 3:51
  that her dream was to be a
• 3:53
  photographer not to be a
• 3:55
  saxophone player and so she
• 3:57
  uh she decided not to to
• 4:00
  make that commitment brody
• 4:02
  enjoys it um and I mean all
• 4:06
  his friends are in the band like
• 4:08
  know for the past four years
• 4:09
  our lives have revolved
• 4:10
  around him marching playing
• 4:12
  at football games marching
• 4:14
  season and then when they
• 4:15
  started doing concert band
• 4:17
  and then I mean last year
• 4:18
  they played at carnegie
• 4:19
  hall for christ sake with a
• 4:20
  symphonic band which was
• 4:22
  amazing um he just the
• 4:25
  golden man tiger land is a
• 4:26
  big deal at tiger stadium
• 4:28
  uh so it would be you know
• 4:31
  it would be awesome for him
• 4:32
  to do I mean he's not going
• 4:33
  to be saying he's not going
• 4:34
  to be you know
• 4:35
  growing up to be a drummer
• 4:37
  by any stretch of the
• 4:37
  imagination um he's getting
• 4:39
  the college of business as
• 4:40
  a matter of fact yeah as
• 4:42
  far removed from a musician
• 4:43
  as possible but gotta have
• 4:46
  dreams gotta have stuff to
• 4:48
  work towards so uh speaking
• 4:51
  about my daughter I talked
• 4:52
  to her last night she
• 4:54
  started a new job a week
• 4:55
  ago and last night she was
• 4:57
  uh shooting bees
• 5:00
  with a camera in both video
• 5:01
  and photography fashion.
• 5:04
  She works for,
• 5:05
  sells beekeeper equipment as
• 5:08
  one of their items.
• 5:09
  And so she went out and they
• 5:12
  were introducing bees to a new comb
• 5:18
  yeah and she videoed the
• 5:20
  process um and took
• 5:22
  pictures of the process to
• 5:24
  reintroduce bees to a new
• 5:26
  comb um and that's going to
• 5:28
  be out on their website
• 5:29
  soon okay and I was like
• 5:32
  that's really cool that is
• 5:35
  cool yeah so um super proud
• 5:37
  of her uh jody asked
• 5:39
  lunchtime how was your fast
• 5:40
  yesterday scotter did I
• 5:41
  miss the show no show yesterday um
• 5:46
  My wife had surgery
• 5:47
  yesterday and there's
• 5:48
  people asking about it in the chat,
• 5:50
  Meredith and Jay Burch and everyone.
• 5:54
  So I want to say that it went great.
• 5:59
  We were at the hospital at five a.m.
• 6:03
  So the four a.m.
• 6:03
  wake up call drove her to
• 6:05
  it's actually a surgery center,
• 6:07
  not a hospital,
• 6:08
  which was way nicer than
• 6:09
  the hospital we did last time.
• 6:13
  And we were home by eleven thirty.
• 6:16
  So I could have done the show,
• 6:19
  but I was exhausted.
• 6:22
  Flat out exhausted.
• 6:25
  The surgery went so well.
• 6:27
  All the PT she did on the
• 6:29
  first leg has paid off on
• 6:31
  the second leg because her
• 6:35
  new leg from January is strong now.
• 6:38
  And so she's able to push off.
• 6:40
  The only thing she can't get
• 6:42
  up on her own from is the bed.
• 6:45
  Everything else she can get up on her own.
• 6:48
  So I just have to help her
• 6:49
  out of the bed at night and
• 6:53
  in the morning.
• 6:54
  And when she lays down to
• 6:56
  elevate everything.
• 6:58
  Yeah, she's doing great.
• 6:59
  She's already moving around
• 7:01
  faster than before.
• 7:04
  Today,
• 7:04
  the nerve block was supposed to be done,
• 7:08
  but she's still doing pretty good.
• 7:11
  I tried to stay ahead on the
• 7:13
  pain meds yesterday so that
• 7:15
  when the nerve block let loose today,
• 7:17
  she would still be.
• 7:18
  Yeah, quite so bad.
• 7:20
  Yeah.
• 7:22
  But she's doing awesome.
• 7:24
  I'm betting she's back upstairs in a week.
• 7:28
  That's amazing.
• 7:28
  Yeah.
• 7:30
  Yeah.
• 7:30
  Just because of how strong
• 7:31
  the new leg is from all the
• 7:33
  PT she's done.
• 7:35
  And you know, when they PT,
• 7:37
  they just like in CrossFit, you do,
• 7:39
  you stay balanced, right?
• 7:41
  So you do PT on the new leg,
• 7:43
  but they were doing the old
• 7:44
  trashed leg too.
• 7:46
  So when they did the surgery,
• 7:48
  that leg is stronger taking
• 7:50
  the new let the new knee now.
• 7:53
  Amazing.
• 7:54
  But just like, like Rihanna,
• 7:56
  she's titanium now.
• 7:57
  So, um,
• 8:01
  And she likes to remind me that,
• 8:03
  that she is full of titanium.
• 8:07
  Does that say she's got two titanium?
• 8:09
  Let me ask you something.
• 8:11
  All bullshit aside,
• 8:12
  going through the airport metal detector.
• 8:18
  She has a card.
• 8:20
  Really?
• 8:20
  She has to carry a card.
• 8:21
  I don't know enough people
• 8:23
  that have shit like that.
• 8:25
  Really?
• 8:25
  Yeah.
• 8:26
  I don't think it matters in
• 8:28
  the new version where you
• 8:29
  have to do the... But if
• 8:31
  you go through a metal detector,
• 8:33
  you have to... In New Orleans,
• 8:38
  once you actually get to
• 8:40
  the security place or whatever,
• 8:44
  they'll pull some people
• 8:44
  aside and just hit them
• 8:45
  with the wand and you can
• 8:47
  just go on through.
• 8:49
  Generally speaking,
• 8:49
  because there's only one security area,
• 8:51
  there's a whole lot of people there.
• 8:54
  That's why I was wondering.
• 8:54
  I was like,
• 8:56
  if she got hit with a wand, if that,
• 8:58
  if that team's going to go off,
• 8:59
  I guess it will.
• 9:00
  It's metal.
• 9:00
  It makes sense.
• 9:01
  Yeah.
• 9:01
  She,
• 9:02
  there's a medical card she'll carry
• 9:03
  that it says she has metal parts.
• 9:08
  Yeah.
• 9:08
  That's awesome.
• 9:10
  Yeah.
• 9:12
  But I'm glad she's moving around, dude.
• 9:14
  That's amazing.
• 9:15
  Good shit.
• 9:16
  Yeah.
• 9:17
  She's killing it, man.
• 9:17
  It's,
• 9:19
  weird thing is my doubt my
• 9:20
  dog gets squirrely whenever
• 9:22
  this happens so like he
• 9:24
  requires more assistance
• 9:26
  than normal but yeah yeah
• 9:30
  no more mris for her yep
• 9:33
  that would be pretty awful
• 9:34
  for that magnet to rip that
• 9:37
  right out of there I don't
• 9:38
  think about that that
• 9:43
  sounds terrible if you
• 9:45
  listen you go you can watch
• 9:47
  what she had done
• 9:49
  online just say total knee
• 9:50
  replacement yeah it is
• 9:52
  archaic how they do it they
• 9:56
  like to say cut it open
• 9:58
  it's not laparoscopic they
• 9:59
  cut it open cut it open no
• 10:00
  she's cut from probably two
• 10:04
  inches above the knee to a
• 10:06
  lot more below the knee uh
• 10:08
  probably four or five inches below
• 10:12
  and uh and it's all stapled
• 10:14
  up uh we take the bandages
• 10:16
  off tomorrow and then we
• 10:18
  redress it and unless it's
• 10:22
  done leaking if it's done
• 10:23
  leaking then she's we just
• 10:25
  give it open air but uh yep um
• 10:33
  Ken Walters,
• 10:34
  always the man of interesting facts.
• 10:37
  My wife had the first
• 10:38
  robotic knee surgery as a
• 10:39
  trial ten years ago.
• 10:40
  She was back to her job in
• 10:42
  forty eight hours.
• 10:43
  Local local news did a before,
• 10:46
  during and after filming it.
• 10:50
  I'm assuming it was like not
• 10:52
  the total replacement surgery, though.
• 10:54
  His total replacement,
• 10:57
  they like they cut the bone.
• 11:00
  then and attach the then the
• 11:01
  metal to the existing part
• 11:03
  of the bone and some of the
• 11:06
  video you see like a hammer
• 11:07
  just hammer and chill just
• 11:14
  beating on it goodness so
• 11:19
  I'm just reading birch's
• 11:20
  car happens to me every
• 11:22
  time I wear these sweats
• 11:23
  usually that I have metal
• 11:24
  keepers on the waistband
• 11:26
  strings I always get wanded
• 11:30
  I used to always get the pat down.
• 11:34
  So when I went from like
• 11:36
  five hundred pounds to two, whatever,
• 11:40
  I had all this like extra skin.
• 11:44
  And every time I'd go through the detector,
• 11:49
  I'd get pulled aside and
• 11:49
  get the pat down.
• 11:53
  Well, you carried underneath there.
• 11:55
  Nothing I wasn't born with.
• 11:57
  One time I got pulled into the back room.
• 12:01
  get out of here yeah it was
• 12:02
  never had that it sucked
• 12:03
  man and then I told my wife
• 12:06
  that um antonio and I are
• 12:08
  now married um yeah sorry
• 12:14
  uh he did things to me that
• 12:15
  we haven't done in years
• 12:17
  it's amazing how that works
• 12:19
  um seeing I get I don't do that I got
• 12:23
  wanted, but it was,
• 12:24
  and like trying to figure
• 12:25
  out what I had on me.
• 12:25
  Like I don't think it was in my pockets.
• 12:27
  I don't know what it's picking up.
• 12:28
  And there's no part of me that's metal.
• 12:30
  So I don't know what that is.
• 12:31
  But then last year I was flying,
• 12:34
  actually flying the MFC last fall.
• 12:37
  And I took,
• 12:39
  I thought I had taken
• 12:40
  everything out of my bag
• 12:41
  that would have set it off.
• 12:42
  Like the metal types of my backpack.
• 12:45
  But at the time I still had my snips and,
• 12:50
  that I kept in there if I
• 12:51
  need to change my rope on my jump rope.
• 12:55
  And so like,
• 12:55
  I'm sitting there waiting for
• 12:56
  my bag and I see him pull
• 12:57
  it off to the side and I'm going,
• 13:00
  what the shit is that?
• 13:01
  Like, what's going on?
• 13:02
  Not thinking at all.
• 13:05
  Lady's looking through it.
• 13:07
  She's going through every
• 13:08
  single pocket trying to
• 13:09
  figure out where it's at
• 13:10
  because it's a big bear complex bag.
• 13:12
  It's got eight hundred pockets on it.
• 13:14
  And she finally, she pulls out the rope,
• 13:16
  my jump rope that I thought
• 13:18
  I had taken out
• 13:19
  Cause I wasn't going to need it.
• 13:20
  And I was like, ah, that's my jump rope.
• 13:23
  Sorry.
• 13:23
  And then she pulled out the
• 13:25
  snips and she goes, well, what is this?
• 13:27
  And I said,
• 13:27
  that's actually a tool tool to
• 13:29
  actually work on the jump rope that I,
• 13:32
  yeah, exactly.
• 13:33
  Exactly.
• 13:34
  Bomb making equipment.
• 13:36
  And then with the, if you look at it,
• 13:38
  cause it's all called up
• 13:39
  every time I pick it up.
• 13:40
  Right.
• 13:40
  So you look at that through
• 13:41
  a fricking X-raying like, yeah,
• 13:43
  it looks like I'm fixing to
• 13:43
  do some dumb shit.
• 13:46
  Yeah.
• 13:47
  She put them back in my bag
• 13:49
  and sent me on my way.
• 13:51
  The rope and the cutters.
• 13:53
  I said, yeah, that's the tool.
• 13:55
  If the rope breaks,
• 13:56
  I need it to cut the cable
• 13:59
  and put anyone on.
• 14:00
  And she just kind of giggled.
• 14:01
  She's like, I put it back in the bag,
• 14:03
  zipped it back up for me,
• 14:05
  handed me my bag and went
• 14:07
  on down to the terminal.
• 14:10
  Back in the day, man,
• 14:11
  I always had blender
• 14:12
  bottles in my bag for protein shakes,
• 14:16
  for whatever I was doing at the time,
• 14:19
  right?
• 14:19
  And those spring balls said
• 14:23
  that they didn't know what
• 14:24
  to do when that first happened.
• 14:25
  I mean,
• 14:27
  I got my bag pulled all the time
• 14:29
  for those spring balls in
• 14:30
  the blender bottles.
• 14:33
  It's as non-dangerous as you
• 14:34
  could possibly imagine, right?
• 14:36
  Yeah.
• 14:39
  All right, man.
• 14:39
  So I want to get your opinion on this.
• 14:41
  Yesterday I was at the
• 14:42
  surgery center pulling up
• 14:44
  my Instagram and I see this
• 14:47
  and I know other people are
• 14:48
  talking about it now.
• 14:49
  Corey told me before we went live,
• 14:51
  but I have not been on
• 14:52
  anything CrossFit in twenty four hours.
• 14:55
  So I don't know what people have said,
• 14:58
  but I think this is it here.
• 15:03
  Yeah.
• 15:06
  Matt Torres sent an open
• 15:07
  letter to CrossFit athletes
• 15:09
  who competed in the online
• 15:10
  semifinal event.
• 15:16
  Starts off great.
• 15:18
  And listen,
• 15:19
  Matt's one of the best coaches
• 15:20
  in the business.
• 15:21
  His athletes are so successful.
• 15:23
  So successful.
• 15:25
  But this past weekend,
• 15:26
  you put it all on the line, your hopes,
• 15:27
  your dreams, months of relentless work,
• 15:29
  all condensed into five
• 15:30
  challenging workouts.
• 15:31
  When it was over,
• 15:32
  the questions started creeping in.
• 15:33
  Was it enough?
• 15:34
  Should I have trained differently?
• 15:35
  Did I execute the right strategy?
• 15:37
  Am I good enough?
• 15:41
  Then just when you thought
• 15:42
  the hard part was over,
• 15:44
  now comes public scrutiny,
• 15:45
  the noise from those who
• 15:46
  don't understand the fans
• 15:47
  that became critics,
• 15:48
  but also cheer when you win
• 15:50
  and swiftly turn on you on
• 15:52
  it for a cheap laugh or a
• 15:53
  moment of attention.
• 15:54
  CrossFit tried to create a
• 15:55
  system of public judging
• 15:57
  that is supposed to be helpful,
• 15:58
  but instead it's become a
• 15:59
  playground for people to
• 16:00
  behind keyboards and mics.
• 16:02
  Those people are quick to
• 16:03
  criticize with zero
• 16:04
  accountability and say that
• 16:05
  it's the best of the sport.
• 16:09
  But here's the truth.
• 16:10
  You guys get so effortlessly
• 16:12
  judged and you keep showing up.
• 16:14
  You're taking the mental and
• 16:15
  emotional beating and you're still...
• 16:17
  you still walk back into
• 16:18
  work to get better.
• 16:20
  You don't get to hide behind
• 16:21
  a screen or a microphone.
• 16:22
  You stand in the fire exposed and real.
• 16:25
  Here's what I know.
• 16:26
  You don't owe those voices a
• 16:28
  single second of your energy.
• 16:30
  Lean on the people who are
• 16:31
  truly in your corner,
• 16:32
  the ones who have seen the
• 16:33
  tears after the toughest days,
• 16:35
  the ones who've pushed you
• 16:37
  to get back up and when you
• 16:39
  wanted to quit,
• 16:39
  the ones who tell you the
• 16:41
  hard truth because they believe in you.
• 16:43
  This sport isn't just about
• 16:45
  who is the fittest.
• 16:46
  It's about showing up when it's hard,
• 16:48
  when it hurts,
• 16:48
  and when things don't go your way.
• 16:50
  You accomplished a lot this weekend.
• 16:52
  Hold your head high.
• 16:53
  The work continues.
• 16:54
  Matt Torres.
• 16:57
  So, first of all,
• 16:59
  Masters athletes already
• 17:00
  went through this process, right?
• 17:04
  And they didn't have the comment section,
• 17:06
  so it was real freewheeling
• 17:09
  on the Masters side.
• 17:10
  It was the straight-up Wild West, dude.
• 17:15
  What I want to say is,
• 17:17
  if you want to be a professional athlete,
• 17:21
  you are going to be judged.
• 17:25
  When I watch a Chicago Bears game,
• 17:27
  and my number one wide
• 17:28
  receiver drops the ball in the end zone,
• 17:31
  damn well I'm going to be
• 17:32
  bitching at him through the TV.
• 17:35
  I might say something on Twitter.
• 17:38
  I might say something on
• 17:39
  Instagram about how poorly
• 17:40
  that guy played.
• 17:42
  You...
• 17:43
  in eighty million bears fans
• 17:46
  right it happens in hockey
• 17:51
  it happens in baseball it
• 17:53
  happens in tennis it
• 17:54
  happens in golf how many
• 17:57
  meltdowns have you seen on
• 17:58
  the eighteenth hole of a
• 17:59
  golf tournament and then
• 18:01
  that person is on sports
• 18:02
  center for a week
• 18:04
  Scott, I am a huge soccer fan.
• 18:08
  Huge, huge soccer fan.
• 18:10
  They will make up a song and
• 18:13
  sing a song about you to
• 18:15
  you while you're still on
• 18:17
  the field if you do some dumb stuff.
• 18:21
  I've seen it happen.
• 18:24
  When did professional
• 18:27
  athletes become so soft?
• 18:29
  Social media.
• 18:31
  Period.
• 18:32
  He knows that there's a real
• 18:33
  easy solution.
• 18:35
  Turn it off.
• 18:37
  Or be Justin or be Matt and
• 18:40
  keep a file of everything
• 18:42
  that was said about you.
• 18:43
  Make it be the fire that makes you better.
• 18:45
  I understand.
• 18:48
  Before social media,
• 18:50
  Michael Jordan used to make
• 18:51
  up stories in his head
• 18:53
  about somebody that said
• 18:54
  something about him or
• 18:56
  about his mama or about
• 18:58
  whatever was going on in the meantime.
• 19:01
  That's a thing that happened.
• 19:03
  Yeah.
• 19:04
  To try to,
• 19:05
  to try to generate something
• 19:07
  like to make an emotional response,
• 19:08
  to make him better on the field,
• 19:11
  on the court.
• 19:11
  Excuse me.
• 19:12
  The fact of the matter is
• 19:14
  there are standards that
• 19:16
  are being implemented
• 19:17
  At least take into the line,
• 19:19
  if not trying to get over the line,
• 19:22
  to be as competitive as you can be.
• 19:25
  And if you're going to waver on that line,
• 19:29
  then you've got to be
• 19:30
  willing to take the
• 19:31
  criticism when you don't
• 19:32
  meet the standard.
• 19:34
  Every time.
• 19:38
  It just...
• 19:39
  I saw this yesterday and it
• 19:40
  just pissed me off.
• 19:42
  That's what sports is about.
• 19:44
  That's why these other
• 19:45
  sports are popular because
• 19:47
  people talk about them all week long.
• 19:54
  If an NFL team screws up, listen,
• 19:57
  the Bears screwed up a lot last year.
• 20:00
  The botched
• 20:02
  Hail Mary, the blocked extra or field goal,
• 20:06
  all the stuff that they messed up,
• 20:07
  that got talked about for
• 20:08
  seven days afterwards.
• 20:11
  But that's why the sport's popular.
• 20:13
  That's why there's eighteen
• 20:15
  shows on the Chicago Bears, plus ESPN,
• 20:18
  plus Fox Sports.
• 20:20
  They're still talking about
• 20:24
  Seattle not running the ball.
• 20:27
  And that was, what, six, seven years ago?
• 20:32
  Yeah.
• 20:34
  Like people are still.
• 20:35
  It's probably like ten, fifteen years ago.
• 20:38
  We get old.
• 20:39
  But you know what I'm saying?
• 20:41
  They're still talking about
• 20:42
  stuff like that today.
• 20:44
  Yeah.
• 20:47
  And it's you're going to get
• 20:49
  criticized no matter what
• 20:52
  about whatever goes on.
• 20:55
  Period.
• 20:56
  End of story.
• 20:59
  It doesn't matter if you're
• 21:01
  a professional athlete.
• 21:02
  If you're just at your job,
• 21:04
  your regular everyday job,
• 21:07
  not being a professional athlete,
• 21:09
  if you do something stupid,
• 21:11
  somebody's going to call you out on it.
• 21:13
  If you do something right,
• 21:15
  somebody might still call
• 21:16
  you out on it because they
• 21:17
  didn't think it was right enough.
• 21:20
  It's a fact of life.
• 21:21
  Let's go down through some
• 21:22
  of these comments.
• 21:23
  D. Reed,
• 21:23
  considering CrossFit has certified
• 21:25
  judges to look at videos online,
• 21:27
  it's not surprising that
• 21:28
  judges judge the videos.
• 21:30
  Good point.
• 21:35
  In the simplest terms,
• 21:37
  the judges are judging.
• 21:39
  Yeah,
• 21:39
  it's like... Welcome to being called
• 21:43
  a professional athlete.
• 21:44
  Talk to anyone.
• 21:45
  Exactly.
• 21:47
  Aaron Frazier,
• 21:48
  those closest to you should
• 21:50
  be the ones that challenge
• 21:51
  you and hold you accountable.
• 21:54
  I cannot stress that part enough.
• 21:57
  When I do anything online
• 22:00
  that requires like the last two years,
• 22:04
  you know,
• 22:04
  semifinal type stuff and whatnot,
• 22:06
  I know that the people that
• 22:08
  are judging me in person
• 22:10
  are there to hold me to the standards.
• 22:14
  To make sure.
• 22:15
  In everyday class,
• 22:17
  if you're not meeting the
• 22:18
  standard of a movement,
• 22:19
  your coach should be the one telling you,
• 22:21
  you are not doing it right.
• 22:23
  Yeah.
• 22:24
  You need to do better.
• 22:26
  And I've even had a coach, which is,
• 22:28
  I actually found this awesome, not, ooh.
• 22:32
  But anyway,
• 22:33
  take a video of me not doing it
• 22:35
  right to point out to me, see,
• 22:37
  this is where your hip crease is.
• 22:38
  This is where it needs to be.
• 22:40
  Yeah.
• 22:43
  Last Saturday,
• 22:44
  I was coaching a friend of
• 22:45
  mine for Saturday morning class.
• 22:49
  And he thanked me when he
• 22:50
  was done because he was doing thrusters.
• 22:52
  And I was like, hey, man,
• 22:53
  I need you to slow down
• 22:54
  because the first two,
• 22:55
  you are riding that line.
• 22:58
  And then once you kind of
• 22:59
  get into your rhythm,
• 22:59
  you actually go all the way
• 23:00
  down and come back up.
• 23:03
  Afterwards, he was like, thank you.
• 23:05
  He said, once I made the correction,
• 23:08
  I said, first of all, your feet got flat.
• 23:09
  Now you're not on your toes.
• 23:11
  He said, yeah.
• 23:12
  I felt like my ass was
• 23:13
  dragging the ground on the
• 23:15
  bottom of every squat.
• 23:16
  I was like, well, yeah.
• 23:18
  Because it was.
• 23:18
  Because you were actually
• 23:19
  doing it correctly.
• 23:21
  Andrew Sten says,
• 23:22
  soccer fans are the best.
• 23:24
  Love soccer chants during games.
• 23:26
  By the way, welcome to Wrexham.
• 23:28
  Season four is coming out in a week.
• 23:32
  That story is absolutely
• 23:35
  something off of the FIFA
• 23:36
  video game that they've
• 23:37
  been promoted in like, what is it?
• 23:39
  Three consecutive years.
• 23:41
  Don't say any spoilers, man.
• 23:44
  And that part, no,
• 23:44
  that part of it's on that
• 23:46
  part of it's everywhere.
• 23:47
  It's like part of the story now.
• 23:51
  D Reed says do not
• 23:52
  participate or do not
• 23:53
  participate in online
• 23:54
  events where you have to
• 23:55
  submit videos for the public to judge.
• 23:57
  Yeah.
• 23:58
  Don't play.
• 23:59
  Scott, I told you,
• 24:01
  one of my goals for this
• 24:03
  past CrossFit season was to
• 24:05
  not end up on a Hillary video.
• 24:06
  Period.
• 24:10
  I did not want to go log into my YouTube,
• 24:12
  look at my videos,
• 24:13
  and see bats in the comment section.
• 24:17
  We say that, but we're such a niche sport.
• 24:22
  It's such a small amount of
• 24:23
  the population that even sees those.
• 24:27
  Talk about an NFL player or
• 24:29
  a Major League Baseball
• 24:29
  player or a soccer player
• 24:31
  making the not top ten on ESPN.
• 24:33
  They take the ten best
• 24:36
  screw-ups of the week and
• 24:38
  make a top ten list.
• 24:39
  And everybody loves it.
• 24:43
  Yeah.
• 24:44
  And I am willing to bet that
• 24:47
  most of those guys,
• 24:48
  if they do end up on a not top ten list,
• 24:51
  are probably laughing about
• 24:52
  it because they can look at
• 24:53
  it and look at themselves and go, yeah,
• 24:55
  that was ridiculous.
• 24:56
  I can't believe I did that.
• 24:58
  Or, yeah, that was funny.
• 25:02
  Ken Walters, if you're an elite athlete,
• 25:04
  even identified as at a young age,
• 25:06
  someone always wants you to
• 25:08
  fail or critique you.
• 25:09
  It was the hardest thing we
• 25:10
  had to do as parents during
• 25:11
  our son's success in his hockey career.
• 25:14
  would take it a step further
• 25:15
  I when my daughter played
• 25:18
  soccer at eight there were
• 25:21
  parents yelling from the
• 25:23
  sidelines like it is just
• 25:26
  american sports at and I
• 25:29
  think it's even crazier in
• 25:30
  europe um if you look at
• 25:33
  the the things that happen
• 25:35
  um in the soccer matches
• 25:37
  over there but like
• 25:42
  People,
• 25:43
  the parents are the worst in youth
• 25:45
  sports at judging others
• 25:48
  and yelling and screaming
• 25:49
  from the sidelines.
• 25:54
  So my daughter played travel
• 25:57
  golf three years and or two
• 25:58
  years rather and played at
• 26:01
  her high school all four years.
• 26:03
  And after the first year,
• 26:05
  I went into it assuming that.
• 26:07
  which is probably a bad
• 26:08
  assumption on my fault,
• 26:10
  that if you're a parent and
• 26:13
  your kid has been doing something,
• 26:15
  this activity, a sport,
• 26:17
  for like once you get to high school,
• 26:21
  it's probably been, you know, ten,
• 26:23
  twelve years at that point,
• 26:24
  that you would know
• 26:25
  something about the sport.
• 26:29
  And I was horribly wrong
• 26:33
  when it came to that
• 26:33
  because they don't know
• 26:36
  they don't they just don't
• 26:37
  they don't know they don't
• 26:37
  understand how the game
• 26:38
  works they don't and this
• 26:42
  was soccer specific right
• 26:43
  so I'm sitting there and
• 26:45
  I'm hearing these parents
• 26:46
  just yell yeah kick the
• 26:47
  ball well yeah of course
• 26:49
  kick the ball it's soccer
• 26:50
  you should be kicking the
• 26:50
  ball you use your hand
• 26:52
  that's probably a bad idea
• 26:53
  but that's all they know they just think
• 26:55
  kick it up and then
• 26:57
  somebody's gonna take a
• 26:57
  shot and that's not how it works.
• 26:59
  Like that's, there's,
• 27:00
  it's so much more than that.
• 27:02
  So like after Simone's freshman year,
• 27:05
  I had to, and me and my now ex wife,
• 27:08
  like we had, we had a whole,
• 27:09
  we had a whole ass
• 27:10
  conversation where I just went,
• 27:12
  would go and sit by myself
• 27:14
  for the most part during her games,
• 27:16
  because I couldn't stand the parents.
• 27:18
  Yep.
• 27:21
  Like it, it, it drove me that insane.
• 27:25
  How about Spike Lee and
• 27:26
  Reggie Miller did it during a game?
• 27:29
  Yeah.
• 27:38
  I think people in CrossFit
• 27:39
  think it should be
• 27:40
  different because the
• 27:40
  athletes are much closer to
• 27:41
  regular people in the gym.
• 27:43
  People can relate to them
• 27:44
  more than professional
• 27:45
  athletes in other sports.
• 27:47
  I think we're getting away from that.
• 27:49
  These athletes don't train
• 27:51
  in a community gym anymore.
• 27:53
  They're training in their garages.
• 27:54
  They're training in their own facilities.
• 27:57
  It's getting just like I can
• 27:59
  go out and throw the
• 28:00
  football with Corey and I'm
• 28:02
  not Joe Montana.
• 28:03
  Right.
• 28:05
  Right.
• 28:05
  Like it, that it just isn't the same.
• 28:09
  Well, and even if they're at an affiliate,
• 28:11
  they're not in a class.
• 28:12
  They're not interacting with
• 28:14
  the average everyday CrossFitter, right?
• 28:16
  They're on the other side of the gym.
• 28:18
  They come in during off
• 28:19
  hours and do all their stuff,
• 28:21
  whatever it is,
• 28:22
  because they don't want to
• 28:22
  be distracted by the people in the class.
• 28:24
  Like, you can't get fitter in a class.
• 28:26
  It's such a false logic.
• 28:29
  Like,
• 28:32
  I am one of the fitter people at my gym.
• 28:35
  and I make it a point to go
• 28:36
  get in class at least once
• 28:38
  a week sometimes twice
• 28:40
  depending on what I got
• 28:41
  going on because I love my
• 28:43
  community and I want to go
• 28:44
  in there and I am pushed
• 28:46
  when somebody's in there
• 28:47
  with me like I want to beat
• 28:49
  everybody I want to beat
• 28:50
  everybody in class I want
• 28:51
  to go as far as I can well
• 28:52
  it's kind of hard to do
• 28:53
  that by myself sometimes
• 28:55
  doing my own programming so
• 28:56
  I'll go get in class I was
• 28:58
  in class monday afternoon
• 28:59
  as a matter of fact
• 29:01
  And going against some, you know,
• 29:02
  some other people that are
• 29:03
  in there and just trying to be, you know,
• 29:07
  trying to push on myself
• 29:09
  because there's other people in there.
• 29:10
  Hey, I want to beat all these dudes.
• 29:11
  I want to beat the pants off of them.
• 29:13
  And to think that you can't
• 29:16
  go take a class because you're elite,
• 29:18
  because it's somehow going
• 29:19
  to interrupt your training
• 29:21
  is absolute bananas to me.
• 29:23
  Like, I don't understand that.
• 29:25
  I understand you need to do extra that.
• 29:27
  Of course you do.
• 29:28
  And you probably need a
• 29:30
  coach and you need your own
• 29:31
  program and whatnot.
• 29:31
  But to not be a part of your
• 29:33
  community or any community
• 29:36
  and then wonder why you're so soft.
• 29:39
  Like,
• 29:39
  I think the two things go hand in hand.
• 29:42
  Not to change the subject too much.
• 29:43
  And we'll come back to this whole topic.
• 29:46
  But did you see The
• 29:47
  Unbreakable with Trista
• 29:48
  Smith and Nick Matthew?
• 29:50
  No, I did not.
• 29:51
  I haven't watched any of those.
• 29:53
  So I'm terrible at grading
• 29:55
  these things because I'm
• 29:55
  very picky about what I
• 29:57
  want in my CrossFit content.
• 29:59
  But in that video,
• 30:01
  and I'll talk about that
• 30:01
  video later this week and
• 30:03
  my thoughts on it, but in that video,
• 30:05
  Nick Matthew talks about he
• 30:07
  doesn't like to work out alone anymore.
• 30:08
  He wants to work out with the class.
• 30:10
  So he takes his programming,
• 30:12
  and because he's the
• 30:12
  general manager of his gym
• 30:15
  and he does the programming,
• 30:16
  he puts his pieces into the
• 30:18
  class workout.
• 30:19
  So he works out with the
• 30:20
  classes and then do his
• 30:23
  accessory work on the side.
• 30:25
  But that way he gets to work
• 30:26
  out with the class every day.
• 30:30
  How awesome is that?
• 30:32
  If I dropped into Nick
• 30:33
  Matthews' gym and I am now
• 30:36
  having to be in the class
• 30:37
  that he's not coaching,
• 30:38
  that he's actually in, hell yes,
• 30:40
  I'm going against Nick Matthews.
• 30:41
  Let's go.
• 30:41
  Let's see what happens.
• 30:43
  I mean, when Christian jumped in with us,
• 30:45
  the class got really pumped up, man.
• 30:49
  Now,
• 30:49
  she was done with her workout like
• 30:51
  twenty minutes before we were,
• 30:52
  but for those ten minutes,
• 30:55
  it was really cool.
• 30:57
  Yeah.
• 30:58
  You get to see somebody who
• 31:01
  is miles above your ability
• 31:03
  level just smashing the same,
• 31:06
  doing the same thing you are,
• 31:08
  which is what drove us to
• 31:09
  being competitors in the first place.
• 31:11
  Right.
• 31:12
  Seeing guys do stuff that
• 31:13
  you didn't think was
• 31:14
  necessarily possible or
• 31:15
  just outside of the realm
• 31:17
  of the norm for damn sure.
• 31:21
  Andrew Sten says,
• 31:22
  I'm hoping to go to a
• 31:23
  Wrexham game when I'm over
• 31:24
  there for Rogue this year.
• 31:25
  And Jody Lynn says, good goal.
• 31:28
  No, it's this, Jody.
• 31:29
  Good goal!
• 31:34
  You need some more O's and A's.
• 31:38
  A bunch of L's.
• 31:40
  Yeah,
• 31:40
  parents try to live vicariously
• 31:43
  through their children.
• 31:44
  Yeah.
• 31:47
  Yeah.
• 31:49
  and most parents are
• 31:51
  delusional on how good
• 31:52
  actually bad their kids are
• 31:54
  in sports um what what I'll
• 31:59
  say is and it's kind of
• 32:01
  this is kind of in the
• 32:03
  subtext of all that's going
• 32:04
  on in the chat is I've
• 32:06
  brought up that like this
• 32:08
  full swing on netflix and
• 32:10
  how it is doing promoting
• 32:12
  the pga tour and it's
• 32:14
  because the golfers are
• 32:16
  letting netflix show their warts
• 32:20
  When I see a letter like this,
• 32:22
  that's never going to
• 32:22
  happen in the CrossFit
• 32:23
  space because they don't
• 32:25
  want anybody to see
• 32:26
  anything bad that's going
• 32:28
  on in their life.
• 32:30
  And that's one of my
• 32:30
  criticisms with this unbreakable thing,
• 32:32
  and I guess I'm – is you
• 32:34
  have Nick Matthew, who's a single dad,
• 32:37
  working full-time as a GM for a gym,
• 32:41
  and he's a full-time athlete.
• 32:44
  I want to know how do you
• 32:45
  balance being a single dad –
• 32:48
  with those other
• 32:48
  responsibilities and show
• 32:51
  me like running your daughter to school,
• 32:55
  how you have to pick her up after school,
• 32:57
  how you have to do none of
• 32:59
  that got shown.
• 33:02
  That's to me what makes it
• 33:04
  relatable and more human.
• 33:06
  And all they did was they
• 33:07
  kind of focused on the
• 33:09
  qualifier workouts for WFP.
• 33:13
  I've seen that before.
• 33:15
  Yeah.
• 33:16
  And I'm not saying it wasn't done well.
• 33:18
  I mean, it was well produced.
• 33:22
  It told a story.
• 33:24
  I don't think it's the lead
• 33:25
  story that I wanted to know about,
• 33:28
  but... I would go back to the...
• 33:34
  Oh,
• 33:34
  Fittest in History documentary about
• 33:36
  Rich winning four in a row
• 33:38
  when they showed them going
• 33:39
  through the adoption phase,
• 33:41
  like trying to get, you know,
• 33:44
  his daughter for the first
• 33:45
  time and picking them up
• 33:46
  and like all of that stuff.
• 33:48
  Right.
• 33:48
  Not just, hey, he's winning.
• 33:50
  Here's him training, montage, blah, blah,
• 33:52
  whatever.
• 33:52
  Like that's a well-produced documentary.
• 33:57
  show.
• 33:58
  He's a kid at heart.
• 33:59
  They showed him on the four
• 34:01
  runners and blowing stuff
• 34:03
  up in his backyard and
• 34:05
  doing all the stuff like a
• 34:06
  twelve-year-old would do to
• 34:09
  make him more relatable as a human.
• 34:10
  I don't need to see all the
• 34:11
  barn footage over and over again.
• 34:16
  There's a road to the games
• 34:17
  that I just... One quote,
• 34:21
  he said that it was him, Matt...
• 34:26
  I want to say Dan Bailey,
• 34:27
  a couple of whoever other people.
• 34:29
  And at one point he go, all right,
• 34:31
  let's go do some bench press.
• 34:32
  So everybody can see how bad we are at it.
• 34:36
  That line just in,
• 34:37
  in and of itself right there.
• 34:38
  Like, yep.
• 34:39
  I want to watch more of this dude.
• 34:40
  Like,
• 34:40
  because he's saying stuff that I
• 34:42
  would say that's let's just
• 34:43
  go see how terrible we actually are.
• 34:46
  Ken Walter says Nick's gym
• 34:47
  is here in Minnesota.
• 34:48
  I can vouch whenever I have been there,
• 34:51
  he works out with the classes.
• 34:53
  That's really cool.
• 34:56
  And he also says,
• 34:56
  my strength coach also
• 34:58
  trains and coaches at Nick's Box.
• 35:05
  Jay Birch says,
• 35:06
  I haven't seen any of those WFP videos.
• 35:08
  Are they good?
• 35:09
  The Laura Horvat one is awesome.
• 35:12
  It is one of the best pieces
• 35:14
  of content I've seen in a long time.
• 35:16
  The Adler one is very good.
• 35:21
  And then this one,
• 35:24
  I don't think it's their best work.
• 35:25
  I think of the three that are out,
• 35:27
  the long-form documentary videos,
• 35:30
  this one falls a little bit
• 35:32
  behind the other two.
• 35:33
  But the Laura one went where
• 35:35
  nobody else has gone before.
• 35:37
  They went back to her childhood schools.
• 35:39
  They showed the sports she
• 35:41
  played and why she got into
• 35:43
  rock climbing and all of
• 35:46
  that kind of stuff.
• 35:46
  It was really, really cool.
• 35:49
  Speaking of Adler, did you see...
• 35:53
  his tongue for heavy as well.
• 35:58
  It's insane.
• 35:59
  And then Olivia Kerstetter said,
• 36:00
  hold my beer.
• 36:02
  Yeah.
• 36:02
  Well, that was going to happen.
• 36:08
  Um,
• 36:10
  Yeah, Kenneth says,
• 36:11
  I watched the Adler one
• 36:12
  before it got taken down for copyright.
• 36:14
  They changed it up, I guess.
• 36:17
  And so it had more like of
• 36:18
  him hanging out with Carolyn in the gym,
• 36:21
  training and talking more
• 36:23
  because they weren't
• 36:24
  allowed to use the CrossFit footage.
• 36:27
  So I think I didn't get to
• 36:30
  see the original,
• 36:31
  but I heard it was a little
• 36:32
  bit more storytelling oriented.
• 36:34
  the laura one though is like
• 36:36
  what I want my documentary
• 36:38
  to be it is a throwback to
• 36:40
  the road to the games era
• 36:43
  oh speaking of did you see
• 36:45
  that they're doing road to
• 36:48
  the games this year I did
• 36:50
  not see that crossfit media
• 36:52
  is doing road to the games
• 36:53
  this year okay we'll see
• 36:58
  I reserve judgment,
• 36:59
  just like I see the storytelling, though.
• 37:03
  I don't want like workout porn.
• 37:05
  I want storytelling.
• 37:06
  I'm with you.
• 37:07
  I am cautiously optimistic
• 37:10
  just because of the content
• 37:11
  that they've been putting
• 37:12
  out here lately and how
• 37:13
  good it's actually been.
• 37:15
  So I'm with you, a hundred percent.
• 37:17
  I get it.
• 37:17
  Like, I'm the same way.
• 37:19
  I don't just want to see, you know,
• 37:22
  Brooke Wells doing
• 37:23
  muscle-ups or whatever.
• 37:24
  Like, I don't really care about that.
• 37:26
  We know she can do that.
• 37:27
  That's fine.
• 37:28
  I want to see, like, the old ones were,
• 37:31
  you know, at their house in the morning,
• 37:33
  making breakfast,
• 37:34
  and they're talking about
• 37:35
  how bad they're hurting,
• 37:36
  whatever the case may be.
• 37:38
  I want to see an actual story.
• 37:40
  But I'm just excited that
• 37:41
  they're even doing it at this point.
• 37:44
  Because there's a void, right,
• 37:46
  between now and then.
• 37:48
  You're going to have WFP stuff.
• 37:50
  You're going to have a
• 37:50
  couple of comps and whatnot
• 37:51
  in between here and there.
• 37:52
  But for the most part,
• 37:53
  there's not going to be a
• 37:54
  whole lot of stuff to put
• 37:55
  out CrossFit-wise,
• 37:57
  like straight CrossFit-wise.
• 37:58
  So good for them for, you know what,
• 38:00
  let's do it again and see what we can do.
• 38:03
  The lower one goes to her hometown.
• 38:07
  Kristoff is a big part of it.
• 38:09
  and I think that that made
• 38:10
  her more comfortable and
• 38:11
  more open to talk about
• 38:12
  things and kristen added um
• 38:16
  details to the stories
• 38:18
  because he was the older
• 38:19
  brother during the times
• 38:20
  most of the stuff was going
• 38:21
  on um it had the
• 38:24
  storytelling that I want to
• 38:25
  see so much um that that's
• 38:29
  all and I don't care who
• 38:31
  puts it out um I just I've
• 38:38
  The best example in the chat
• 38:39
  that I've seen is Colton
• 38:41
  lets everybody in on everything, right?
• 38:43
  And because of that,
• 38:44
  he's the most popular
• 38:46
  athlete in the sport right now.
• 38:50
  And it's not because he wins.
• 38:52
  It's because, and I haven't seen it yet,
• 38:57
  from what I hear,
• 38:59
  he actually made the Tia...
• 39:02
  channel exciting to watch.
• 39:05
  I have not seen it either,
• 39:06
  but you're the second
• 39:09
  person I've heard to say that.
• 39:10
  He made that fun to watch.
• 39:12
  Again, I have not watched it.
• 39:13
  I have not given my... This
• 39:15
  is not the Scott rating of that video.
• 39:18
  I've just read that it made
• 39:20
  it interesting because...
• 39:23
  basically Tia says I know
• 39:24
  you're the king of talking
• 39:26
  and we're gonna go at it
• 39:28
  and and then someone said
• 39:30
  that Tia and Tim Paulson
• 39:31
  had the same hairdo and I
• 39:33
  have seen that clip is
• 39:43
  Colton obsessed so I don't
• 39:44
  he said he watched it and
• 39:45
  didn't get enough Colton
• 39:51
  but it's Colton obsessed.
• 39:53
  Yes.
• 39:54
  I'm not sure.
• 39:55
  I'm not good.
• 39:56
  That's going to be stuck in
• 39:57
  my head for the rest of the
• 39:59
  week at this point.
• 40:00
  I didn't realize that
• 40:01
  Paulson got his haircut.
• 40:04
  He got long hair chopped.
• 40:06
  So he has the, he has the mom do.
• 40:14
  That's fantastic.
• 40:16
  That is absolutely fantastic.
• 40:18
  Now,
• 40:18
  that is enough reason for me to go
• 40:20
  watch right there.
• 40:21
  A hundred percent, just to go see that.
• 40:25
  Yeah,
• 40:25
  I'll watch that this afternoon and
• 40:28
  kind of give my take on it tomorrow.
• 40:33
  And I love Tim Paulson.
• 40:34
  Like, Paulson is just,
• 40:35
  he never takes himself seriously.
• 40:37
  No, which is why he's awesome.
• 40:40
  Yeah.
• 40:42
  Speaking of...
• 40:43
  this is going to be a little
• 40:44
  bit off topic as well but I
• 40:45
  got I got it stuck in my
• 40:46
  head now um did you have a
• 40:48
  chance to watch dave's
• 40:49
  weekend review I did I
• 40:51
  actually have it on my list
• 40:52
  okay okay good good did you
• 40:55
  see that he said that they
• 40:56
  are talking about in-person
• 40:59
  qualifying events for
• 41:00
  masters next year I did
• 41:03
  that he has some partners
• 41:04
  wanting to do those yeah I would
• 41:08
  I don't normally go comment on those,
• 41:10
  but I went ahead and
• 41:11
  commented on that to see if
• 41:12
  I could get him to say
• 41:13
  something about it on his
• 41:15
  next week's weekend review.
• 41:18
  Did you also see him admit
• 41:19
  that the teams didn't
• 41:21
  really get video reviewed
• 41:23
  and it's just an experiment
• 41:24
  they were doing?
• 41:25
  A hundred percent.
• 41:28
  Why would you even say that?
• 41:30
  Because he's Dave and he
• 41:32
  doesn't give a shit.
• 41:35
  I heard that and I was like,
• 41:36
  what the hell are you talking about?
• 41:38
  Like, why?
• 41:39
  The only,
• 41:43
  he's the only dude I know that
• 41:45
  can say something like that.
• 41:47
  And just,
• 41:48
  and like as nonchalant as humanly
• 41:50
  possible.
• 41:50
  It was like, yeah,
• 41:51
  it was more of an
• 41:52
  experiment than anything else.
• 41:53
  We looked at the top list,
• 41:54
  figured those are the right
• 41:55
  people that were supposed to get there.
• 41:56
  And we just let it, we just let it roll.
• 41:59
  And I was – I had it on
• 42:02
  driving home yesterday,
• 42:03
  like that last part of it
• 42:05
  where he said – or whatever
• 42:06
  part it was when he said that.
• 42:07
  I put it in my Jeep,
• 42:08
  and I was at a red light,
• 42:09
  and I stopped and actually looked.
• 42:13
  And I was like, he,
• 42:14
  he really just said that
• 42:15
  out loud where other people
• 42:16
  could hear it.
• 42:17
  Like he didn't, he'd use the.
• 42:19
  And he said it after Hillard
• 42:20
  already put out video
• 42:21
  showing that people didn't
• 42:23
  meet the standards.
• 42:24
  Yes.
• 42:25
  And if I made today CrossFit, I've, I'm,
• 42:28
  I've lost my mind.
• 42:30
  Oh, I'm screaming at this point.
• 42:32
  Yeah.
• 42:33
  Screaming at this point.
• 42:36
  Sitting one point out of twentieth place.
• 42:39
  And you did no video review.
• 42:43
  And knowing that there's
• 42:44
  people that's inside there
• 42:45
  that didn't measure stuff,
• 42:48
  didn't do stuff to standard
• 42:49
  or whatever the case may be.
• 42:54
  So, I mean, it's a bold strategy, cotton.
• 43:03
  The teams didn't have video review.
• 43:05
  They didn't have to post
• 43:06
  their videos and they
• 43:08
  didn't do a video review.
• 43:11
  And they just let the scores go forward.
• 43:13
  I am just dumbfounded.
• 43:19
  At least in the past,
• 43:20
  they faked like they did video review.
• 43:23
  Right.
• 43:30
  I know what I say, our team,
• 43:33
  the email company team,
• 43:34
  I know what links that they
• 43:36
  went through to make sure
• 43:39
  that everything they did was on point.
• 43:45
  So like to, for them to do all that,
• 43:48
  make sure to go through all
• 43:48
  the extra steps, get the extra judges,
• 43:50
  get the, I mean,
• 43:51
  Brandon ran with them on
• 43:53
  the eight hundred holding a
• 43:54
  camera to make sure that, you know,
• 43:57
  went above and beyond and
• 43:58
  then nobody ever looked at it.
• 44:01
  Aaron Frazier corrects me.
• 44:02
  Thank you, Aaron, for that.
• 44:06
  eighth eighth days and
• 44:07
  twentieth mayhem
• 44:08
  hendersonville is one out
• 44:09
  at twenty one uh so yeah I
• 44:16
  know I I I've gotten to be
• 44:21
  not not close but closer
• 44:22
  with the eighth day crew
• 44:23
  because uh it's close to
• 44:25
  where jamie lives um and
• 44:27
  when I've gone up there for
• 44:28
  some comps um that crew
• 44:30
  compete at those competitions um
• 44:36
  so yeah um just a little bit
• 44:39
  closer with them um and we
• 44:41
  always watch them jamie
• 44:42
  always wants to be out
• 44:43
  there when they're going so
• 44:46
  but yeah um that's about
• 44:51
  all I have for today man
• 44:54
  that was a lot um like we
• 44:56
  covered a bunch of ground
• 44:57
  the only thing I've left is
• 44:58
  just a personal thing um
• 45:01
  while my wife was sleeping
• 45:02
  yesterday after her surgery
• 45:04
  I worked on my my delorean
• 45:08
  And added a light kit.
• 45:13
  It actually has sound and light.
• 45:28
  Fantastic.
• 45:29
  Fantastic.
• 45:36
  I didn't realize it had the hook on it.
• 45:40
  Yep.
• 45:41
  Yeah,
• 45:41
  you can make it either that one or
• 45:43
  the one with Mr. Fusion on the back.
• 45:45
  Yeah.
• 45:46
  Or the original with the plutonium.
• 45:49
  With just the regular plutonium, yeah.
• 45:51
  Yeah.
• 45:52
  But it actually, like,
• 45:53
  the sound effects make it,
• 45:54
  when it hits ADA, this turns blue.
• 45:56
  There it goes.
• 45:57
  Yep.
• 45:58
  And then everything starts blinking,
• 46:01
  and it goes back in time.
• 46:07
  But yeah,
• 46:08
  it was so much harder to do the
• 46:09
  light kit than it was to build the car.
• 46:14
  And the lights that I'm
• 46:14
  putting in there are like a
• 46:17
  millimeter wide.
• 46:20
  So you put in like tweezers?
• 46:23
  Yeah, I use tweezers for the whole thing.
• 46:26
  Yeah.
• 46:26
  Now, like the blue underneath there,
• 46:29
  that's a replacement brick.
• 46:31
  It is a clear brick that the
• 46:32
  LEDs are already in it and
• 46:35
  you just replace what's there.
• 46:37
  But like the headlights,
• 46:38
  I had to insert the LED
• 46:40
  into the glass bricks that are there.
• 46:44
  Did you have to take it
• 46:45
  apart to then put the stuff
• 46:46
  in and put it back together?
• 46:49
  Let me tell you something.
• 46:50
  You got way more patients
• 46:52
  than I've ever had in forty
• 46:55
  eight years because there's
• 46:56
  no way I've started several
• 46:58
  models like when I was a
• 46:59
  kid because I love I'm a huge car guy.
• 47:03
  And I probably finished three of them.
• 47:06
  I built one airplane, a B-B.
• 47:10
  I built a fifty.
• 47:14
  What is it?
• 47:15
  It was a first year vet.
• 47:17
  Fifty six.
• 47:17
  Something like that.
• 47:18
  Yeah, somewhere there.
• 47:21
  Built one of those.
• 47:22
  And then, like, I think I did, like,
• 47:23
  a Lamborghini at one point
• 47:25
  or something like that.
• 47:26
  But I could, I had no patience.
• 47:28
  So, like, and it was glued together stuff.
• 47:31
  So, like.
• 47:32
  Yep.
• 47:33
  And then try to not get glue everywhere.
• 47:36
  Nope.
• 47:36
  So, for you to go in there and be like, oh,
• 47:37
  yeah, I know these.
• 47:38
  I got these LEDs that you can hardly see.
• 47:42
  Put them in the headlight.
• 47:43
  Bless you for that, dude.
• 47:46
  No way.
• 47:46
  So this is a Lego.
• 47:48
  That is a Lego set.
• 47:51
  It is Legos.
• 47:52
  Calm me down.
• 47:53
  There's something about like
• 47:54
  clicking that the blocks
• 47:55
  together that just give me
• 47:57
  like this sense of peace.
• 47:58
  Right.
• 48:00
  And now the light kit was
• 48:03
  less a sense of peace than
• 48:05
  the building of the car.
• 48:06
  I will admit.
• 48:07
  Yeah, there was much more,
• 48:10
  much more cursing.
• 48:12
  And yeah,
• 48:14
  that putting it together but
• 48:15
  when it was done and it
• 48:17
  looked the way it did it
• 48:19
  was worth every bit of that
• 48:21
  um it was such a sense of
• 48:23
  accomplishment um the only
• 48:26
  kind of meticulous like
• 48:27
  that I can do that actually
• 48:29
  like gets me in that knot
• 48:33
  like you hand me like a
• 48:34
  ball of string that's just
• 48:35
  all tied up into in this
• 48:37
  Hey, Ron,
• 48:38
  I need you to make this back into
• 48:40
  one string.
• 48:41
  I'll sit there for two hours
• 48:42
  and just figuring out how
• 48:44
  everything's done and just
• 48:45
  undoing it and having to go
• 48:46
  back and redo it and whatnot.
• 48:48
  That is about it.
• 48:50
  But Legos,
• 48:52
  I used to build the shit out of
• 48:53
  Legos when I was a kid,
• 48:54
  but I made whatever I wanted to make.
• 48:56
  I didn't usually make what was in a box.
• 48:57
  I just built stuff.
• 48:59
  A whole different thing.
• 49:01
  So, like, if I have a lot of aggression,
• 49:04
  my calm down is to go lift
• 49:05
  a barbell or to throw a
• 49:07
  sandbag or whatever, right?
• 49:09
  But sometimes I just need that, like,
• 49:12
  that real touch kind of
• 49:15
  point in together.
• 49:17
  And it just, I don't know.
• 49:17
  That's it.
• 49:18
  It's a tactile thing that's
• 49:20
  making you focus at that point.
• 49:21
  Like,
• 49:21
  the rest of the world kind of drops away.
• 49:24
  The old glues together stuff
• 49:26
  made a whole generation of glue sniffers.
• 49:29
  True story.
• 49:30
  Definitely your own, yeah.
• 49:33
  Aaron asks, Scott,
• 49:34
  when do you eat lunch if
• 49:35
  you're here for your lunch?
• 49:37
  So I work from home.
• 49:38
  I just go upstairs and I eat
• 49:40
  at my desk as I go back,
• 49:43
  as long as I'm not in a meeting.
• 49:45
  And so I either just try to figure out,
• 49:48
  before I come down here or after,
• 49:49
  depending on my meeting schedules,
• 49:52
  and I just eat at my desk for that.
• 49:56
  So Jason Bourne,
• 49:58
  as you would guess Jason Bourne would do,
• 50:00
  would go to a gun range to calm down.
• 50:06
  Yeah.
• 50:06
  He also knows how fast he
• 50:07
  can run flat out at this
• 50:08
  elevation before his hands
• 50:10
  start to shake.
• 50:12
  One point twenty one gigawatts.
• 50:13
  That is right.
• 50:15
  Helping.
• 50:16
  That is flipping sweet.
• 50:17
  I knew he'd like it because
• 50:19
  his old Instagram handle
• 50:20
  used to be eighty eight miles per hour.
• 50:24
  Yeah, I think something like that.
• 50:29
  But yeah.
• 50:31
  Yeah.
• 50:31
  So I. My wife works from
• 50:36
  home and then she has
• 50:37
  dinner or lunch waiting for
• 50:38
  me when I go upstairs.
• 50:40
  But with her knee surgery,
• 50:41
  that ain't happening today.
• 50:43
  Probably not so much today, but generally.
• 50:47
  Yeah.
• 50:49
  So with that, guys, time for – oh,
• 50:51
  I didn't do a dart today.
• 50:52
  Nope.
• 50:57
  Yeah.
• 50:57
  Didn't even aim.
• 50:58
  Just tossed it.
• 50:59
  Missed low.
• 51:01
  Missed the board.
• 51:03
  Went into the wall.
• 51:06
  With that,
• 51:07
  it's time for you knuckleheads
• 51:08
  to get back to work.
• 51:09
  I need to go take care of my wife.
• 51:11
  With that,
• 51:11
  we will see everybody tomorrow
• 51:14
  on Lunch with the Clydesdale.
• 51:15
  Bye, guys.
