- 1:26sunday night great show
- 1:27sunday night dang um and I
- 1:32brought some energy on
- 1:33sunday night that I didn't
- 1:34know I had and I don't know
- 1:36if I can do it again we'll have to see uh
- 1:39Man, if you don't know, like Jamie and I,
- 1:42you worked would travel to events.
- 1:45We fight like brother and
- 1:47sister all the time, all the time.
- 1:52And Sunday night was like a
- 1:53flashback to all the times
- 1:56we fought on the road.
- 2:00And I love her to death.
- 2:01She is just an amazing person,
- 2:03one of my best friends in the world.
- 2:04But we scrap like brother and sister.
- 2:07And Sunday night was that
- 2:11tenfold and was awesome.
- 2:12And I love when she gives it
- 2:13back to me and we go at it.
- 2:18But there's been a lot of
- 2:19comments about what she said,
- 2:20what I said.
- 2:22And so people are blaming me
- 2:24for what she said.
- 2:25And I'm like, hey, go yell at Jamie,
- 2:27not me.
- 2:27I'm on your side.
- 2:29So last night got my new Adidas trainers,
- 2:37drop set threes.
- 2:39I'm going to give them a whirl today.
- 2:41see how they work out.
- 2:42I tried them on last night.
- 2:44Um, they're a little bit snug, um,
- 2:46but the toe box is big.
- 2:49Um, so my toe box had plenty of space, um,
- 2:52but they're a little tiny
- 2:53bit snugger all the way around.
- 2:55So I'm betting the loosen up
- 2:57a little bit after a couple of workouts.
- 2:59Uh,
- 3:00but I'm really excited to try them out.
- 3:02So that's like the outside.
- 3:04And then the inside soul is like that.
- 3:10And so, uh,
- 3:11really like them I wish they
- 3:13had cooler color waves for
- 3:15the men the the women's
- 3:17color waves are amazing
- 3:18like I would love that blue
- 3:20on a shoe like that blue
- 3:22where all of the gray is
- 3:24would be really awesome but
- 3:29the men's color waves are
- 3:29just kind of meh anyway I
- 3:35really love the women's
- 3:37color waves they have out
- 3:38there just wish they had
- 3:39more selection for the men
- 3:44so what's up shay good to
- 3:46see you could be here live
- 3:47with us today uh yeah
- 3:51carolyn I'm so glad that we
- 3:55put that together um when
- 3:58did we do that over a year
- 4:00ago now um and now we're
- 4:02really really starting to
- 4:03uh really starting to
- 4:06groove so so the shoe is
- 4:08called a drop set three um
- 4:13It's a drop set three.
- 4:14It's Adidas CrossFit shoe.
- 4:18They sponsored a WFP this last weekend.
- 4:22So I'm assuming they have a
- 4:22drop set two and a drop set one.
- 4:25This is their third iteration of the shoe.
- 4:27I tried it on last night.
- 4:28It's really comfortable.
- 4:31Really comfortable.
- 4:33It kind of has like that mid...
- 4:39so the the top of the shoe
- 4:41is like this part is like
- 4:45the old Kevlar uh Reebok
- 4:48ish kind of fabric um and
- 4:52then a lot of like the this
- 4:54stuff whoop here we go um
- 4:56around the shoe to kind of
- 4:58keep it like solid um so I don't know
- 5:06this is a great question.
- 5:08Why do we call it,
- 5:09say colorway instead of colors?
- 5:11Now I think colorway is
- 5:14referring and please,
- 5:15I am not in the shoe industry.
- 5:16I do not.
- 5:18Um,
- 5:20I do not know anything about the shoe
- 5:22industry.
- 5:23I think colorway is more of
- 5:24the overall theme of the
- 5:26shoe and not just a color or colors.
- 5:29Um, but I, who, how the hell do I know?
- 5:32I don't, I don't know why it's colorway.
- 5:35Um,
- 5:37I and again I don't know but
- 5:40like when reebok would come
- 5:41out with a the color of a
- 5:42shoe they would also come
- 5:44out with like shorts and
- 5:45shirts and stuff to match
- 5:46it and so I think it just
- 5:48it implied over the entire
- 5:50outfit um but who knows uh
- 5:59what would I compare the
- 6:00drop set three to I don't
- 6:01know yet I'm gonna work out
- 6:02in them tonight uh so I will give you
- 6:06tomorrow a better indication
- 6:08as to what they're snugger
- 6:11than a Reebok but the but
- 6:13the toe box is big so I
- 6:17don't know we'll see we'll
- 6:20see it's like a painting palette
- 6:29Corey says colorway refers
- 6:30to a specific combination
- 6:31of colors used in a design
- 6:33product or artwork.
- 6:35It typically indicates the
- 6:36color variations in which
- 6:37an item is available,
- 6:38such as different versions of a sneaker,
- 6:42a garment, or a piece of furniture.
- 6:44I think someone looked up a
- 6:46colorway on dictionary.com.
- 6:51According to the Google.
- 6:56So there we go.
- 6:59So I know most of you
- 7:01probably already know this.
- 7:02Okay, we're back.
- 7:06So whenever you bring up shoes,
- 7:08it goes longer than you think.
- 7:09I wear Savage one,
- 7:10but I've been looking at
- 7:11the drop set threes.
- 7:13Honestly,
- 7:14I just I fell in love with the
- 7:15look of the drop set three
- 7:16at the games last year when
- 7:19Bethany and Haley were wearing them.
- 7:22And I really wanted to try
- 7:24them out ever since.
- 7:27I was waiting for.
- 7:31color that I liked um I
- 7:34almost went with the black
- 7:35gumshoe um but I've had so
- 7:38many pairs of like that
- 7:39that I wanted something
- 7:40different uh so that's why
- 7:42I went with these but the
- 7:43problem is is I have a big
- 7:45foot so this is a size and
- 7:48it looks like when I put it
- 7:50on the toe looks long like
- 7:52from here out because my
- 7:54foot is just too big if I
- 7:56was a size ten these would
- 7:57look awesome but i
- 8:00what happens you look at a
- 8:01shoe like on the shelf and
- 8:03it looks great in the size
- 8:04ten and then you put on the
- 8:06size thirteen and you're
- 8:07like man it looks like a
- 8:08clown shoe but that's every
- 8:10shoe if you have like a
- 8:11size thirteen I've I've
- 8:16hated the t every tear shoe
- 8:17I've put on my foot without
- 8:20even working out in it the
- 8:21minute I put it on my my foot I'm like no
- 8:26um so yeah I'm not a tear
- 8:30guy I like the rad runners
- 8:34but they are a little bit
- 8:35small in the toe box these
- 8:37seem a little bit bigger
- 8:39But I've been a Reebok guy
- 8:41pretty much my whole CrossFit life.
- 8:44I had some Metcons.
- 8:45Those I have to take off as
- 8:46soon as the workout's over.
- 8:49Reeboks I can wear through a
- 8:52workout and keep them on
- 8:53after pretty easily.
- 8:56So I'm hoping,
- 8:57I think these are more like the Reebok,
- 8:59but we'll find out.
- 9:01We'll find out tonight.
- 9:04And Holly is old school innovate.
- 9:08Man.
- 9:08Yeah.
- 9:09When I first started in two
- 9:10thousand eleven,
- 9:11everybody was wearing innovates.
- 9:16So.
- 9:18Yeah, I'll try them tonight.
- 9:20I don't even know what the
- 9:24workout is tonight.
- 9:25I need to look.
- 9:27But I'll try to do some like
- 9:29I'll try to do some jump rope.
- 9:30I'll try to do some things
- 9:32like where I'm bouncing in
- 9:33them to see how that is and
- 9:35some stuff like that, even on the side.
- 9:40Yeah.
- 9:42They were running that deal, I think,
- 9:44kind of in conjunction with WFP,
- 9:46but don't quote me on that.
- 9:48All right.
- 9:54So, penalties.
- 9:57This just came out a couple
- 9:58hours ago from Barbell Spin,
- 10:00so I'm going to share that first.
- 10:04He posted this two hours ago,
- 10:07and this is...
- 10:10CrossFit Games' twenty-five
- 10:11semifinal appeal form.
- 10:13The penalties reflected on
- 10:14the in-affiliate semifinal
- 10:15leaderboard yesterday are not final.
- 10:19The scoring adjustments were
- 10:20made prior to the appeals process.
- 10:22Athletes have twenty-four
- 10:23hours following
- 10:24notification from CrossFit
- 10:26to file an appeal.
- 10:27So there is still a
- 10:28possibility that an
- 10:29athlete's score is
- 10:30reinstated or readjusted
- 10:32following that process.
- 10:38So, yes,
- 10:39there were a lot of changes
- 10:40yesterday to the female
- 10:41leaderboard and a lot of
- 10:44things that affected the top eleven.
- 10:47But they are not final there.
- 10:49Everybody has the ability to
- 10:52to appeal that and get
- 10:54their scores reinstated or
- 10:56readjusted after that.
- 11:03so just sharing that so
- 11:06everybody knows everything
- 11:08is not um final yet uh
- 11:14corey I ain't gonna lie
- 11:15those white gum drop set
- 11:16threes look fire yeah um
- 11:19yeah mine aren't the gum I
- 11:23am white shoes just do not
- 11:25last long for me so
- 11:31yeah so let's look at the
- 11:32leaderboard and we'll kind
- 11:35of point out the things
- 11:36that really shaped up the
- 11:38top because that's all
- 11:40we're really concerned with
- 11:41at this point.
- 11:45So.
- 11:49Saria Maya took the lead
- 11:52because of the penalties
- 11:54over Ariel Loewen,
- 11:55so she would be the winner
- 11:57if these remained final.
- 12:01Loewen drops from first to third.
- 12:03That moved Raptors up to second.
- 12:06Annika Greer moved up to
- 12:08fourth because Olivia
- 12:09Kerstetter got a penalty
- 12:11and moved out of the top eleven.
- 12:14We have Danielle Brandon and
- 12:15Haley Adams tied at six.
- 12:17Gracie Walton at eight.
- 12:19Amy Kringle at nine,
- 12:20who was out before the penalties.
- 12:24Miriam Von Rohr, who was out.
- 12:26Lucy McGonigal was out,
- 12:28moves into the top eleven.
- 12:29But because these are not final yet,
- 12:32and French Throwdown are final,
- 12:34she gets her ticket from
- 12:36the French Throwdown.
- 12:38So her eleven spot actually
- 12:42goes to Jennifer Muir.
- 12:44who is right there and
- 12:47caroline stanley who was in
- 12:49is now the first person out
- 12:53so um so who fell out of
- 12:57the top eleven was brooke
- 13:00wells um her burpee count
- 13:03went from very high to
- 13:05three um and she got
- 13:08penalized for the muscle-up
- 13:10workout and the not facing the camera
- 13:15from what we can gather.
- 13:17Caroline Stanley is out
- 13:19probably because of the
- 13:20camera angle thing as well.
- 13:22And Olivia Kerstetter,
- 13:26the guess is because she
- 13:28pushed away on the top of
- 13:30the muscle up before
- 13:31establishing a full extension.
- 13:34So those three women are out.
- 13:39and you now have amy kringle
- 13:42miriam von rohr and
- 13:43jennifer muir taking those
- 13:46three spots so uh the
- 13:51penalties resulted in three
- 13:52people out three people in
- 13:56and there you have that
- 13:58And you can see the
- 13:58penalties for Caroline and
- 14:00Olivia only dropped them
- 14:03down to fifteenth,
- 14:03but only eleven spots get in.
- 14:06So even though it wasn't super significant,
- 14:11it was significant enough
- 14:12to take them out of contention.
- 14:15So we were talking on Sunday night,
- 14:17will Olivia do TFX?
- 14:19Will Caroline do TFX?
- 14:21Well, now they better.
- 14:23Because it's either qualify
- 14:25through TFX or hope your
- 14:27appeal goes through.
- 14:28And then hope and pray you
- 14:29can get into NorCal and
- 14:31take on that large field,
- 14:33whatever it's going to be at the time.
- 14:40And then if we go to the men,
- 14:42it was still untouched when
- 14:43I looked just before we went on air.
- 14:46But we'll take a look.
- 14:48And it is still in the same
- 14:50position it was pretty much
- 14:55at the close of the competition.
- 15:00With Yonakoski being just
- 15:02outside looking in.
- 15:04And tied with Chris Ibarra.
- 15:08So...
- 15:11So there we go.
- 15:14So I'm guessing we'll see
- 15:16some movement on the men's
- 15:17leaderboard either later
- 15:18today or tomorrow.
- 15:20But they do have, I think,
- 15:21till the end of the week to
- 15:22make final decisions on that.
- 15:24And again, as we talked off the top,
- 15:30they are still,
- 15:31they still have the appeal
- 15:32process available to them.
- 15:34Twenty four hours after what's going on.
- 15:38And I just noticed I had the
- 15:38wrong backdrop up.
- 15:41What's funny is Siobhan was
- 15:42struggling this morning and Jamie said,
- 15:44we don't struggle because
- 15:45we're professional.
- 15:46And here I am making the mess up today.
- 15:51I really should have the
- 15:52lunch with the Clydesdale background.
- 15:55There we go.
- 15:58Ken asks, I'm late today.
- 16:00How many rants are we in?
- 16:02Are we, Ken,
- 16:03I'm still recovering from Sunday.
- 16:06I don't even know where all
- 16:07that came from.
- 16:09I think with taking care of
- 16:10my wife since her surgery
- 16:12and I haven't been sleeping
- 16:14well because I have to keep
- 16:15my ringer on at night so
- 16:17that if she needs me, she can call me.
- 16:21And she's had to call me
- 16:23like every night during
- 16:25this recovery process.
- 16:26So I was on a low amount of
- 16:28sleep and I just was so
- 16:30cranky Sunday night.
- 16:32But I was explaining at the
- 16:33top of the show,
- 16:34what was kind of cool is
- 16:36when Jamie and I travel together,
- 16:38we fight about CrossFit
- 16:40topics all the time.
- 16:41Like slug it out left and right.
- 16:44And I'll admit,
- 16:44some of the times I just go
- 16:45with the other side of the
- 16:46argument just for the fun
- 16:48of fighting with Jamie.
- 16:52And so...
- 16:57was fun to do that kind of
- 16:59again on sunday night and I
- 17:02like when she comes right
- 17:04back at me um and it makes
- 17:09it makes for great content
- 17:10and I hope that we can
- 17:12continue that on that there
- 17:15are topics that we can do
- 17:16that with moving forward
- 17:18I don't want to be just the
- 17:19crazy old man down the
- 17:20street yelling at the clouds.
- 17:22But as long as there's
- 17:23something that I'm passionate about,
- 17:25I will riff rant about
- 17:28anything like that.
- 17:32Uh,
- 17:32sound like what my wife and kids do to
- 17:34me.
- 17:35They know what buttons to push.
- 17:36Yeah.
- 17:37I think Jamie knows what bus
- 17:38and buttons to push on me.
- 17:40I know what buttons I can push on her.
- 17:42And, uh,
- 17:44We spent a lot of time on
- 17:45the road together,
- 17:46like brother and sister.
- 17:47And we,
- 17:48we used to scrap all the time and
- 17:51it's so much fun, so much fun.
- 17:54That's why, that's why we love sports.
- 17:56Right.
- 17:57Um,
- 17:57because it gives us something to talk
- 17:59about,
- 17:59something to argue about some of
- 18:00the yell about something to
- 18:02rant and riff about.
- 18:05So, um,
- 18:09the other thing I was going to say is.
- 18:13Yeah, bearded Scott lets it,
- 18:15he lets it all out.
- 18:17Yeah.
- 18:19I just start pulling the hairs, Kenneth.
- 18:21And then it gets me in the mood.
- 18:23And then, you know.
- 18:26My mom said to me last night, like,
- 18:27give another month, man,
- 18:28you could play Santa Claus.
- 18:30And I'm like, damn.
- 18:32Like,
- 18:33isn't there a sexier person with a
- 18:35white beard than Santa Claus?
- 18:37Like, come on.
- 18:40Too young to be Santa yet.
- 18:45um I wanted to show one more
- 18:47thing and then so I wanted
- 18:53to kind of point this out
- 18:56um and we'll go to the men
- 18:58and I'm not picking on
- 19:00dallin I just know that
- 19:02this is a good example um
- 19:06so in this workout
- 19:10And I've talked about this, right?
- 19:12Look how far away from the
- 19:14camera his GHD is.
- 19:19If I am judging this video,
- 19:25the minute I see the GHD
- 19:27machine this far away from the camera,
- 19:30and I would love to get
- 19:32Andrew's feedback on this as well,
- 19:35the minute I see the GHD
- 19:36this far away from the camera,
- 19:38that means I'm looking closer.
- 19:41the minute I see this to me,
- 19:43it means you're trying to hide something.
- 19:47If you're putting the, and,
- 19:49and proven with all of
- 19:51their videos did things
- 19:53like this to hide elements
- 19:55behind the rig and,
- 19:57and different things like that.
- 19:58And I'm so glad they got
- 20:00dinged for some of that stuff,
- 20:03because if you're trying to
- 20:04hide something,
- 20:05that means I'm going to look closer.
- 20:09Because you must be afraid
- 20:10that your movement is on
- 20:12the line and you don't want
- 20:13me to see the line.
- 20:17And because they're not
- 20:18using the Motorola razors
- 20:20to video anymore, circa Brookwell's, um,
- 20:23now we're just moving the
- 20:27camera so far away.
- 20:28And I think I,
- 20:29I think with the other day
- 20:30when we were looking at this,
- 20:32like there's no need for it.
- 20:34Andrew made a great point.
- 20:35They're not crossing a line
- 20:37with the lunges.
- 20:39So let me back this up a little bit,
- 20:41right?
- 20:42They're not crossing a line
- 20:43with the lunges.
- 20:44It's a step count.
- 20:46So there's no line that I
- 20:47need to see up here.
- 20:50And I can have Dallin in
- 20:53frame fully and move that
- 20:54camera ahead pretty much maybe ten feet.
- 21:00And again,
- 21:01it's even better if they move
- 21:02the camera on the other
- 21:03side of the GHD and then
- 21:06show the lunges at a little
- 21:08bit more distance because
- 21:09there's no line I have to check.
- 21:11All I have to do is see knee
- 21:12touch and are they overhead
- 21:14not touching the dumbbell.
- 21:16To me,
- 21:17when you're putting it that far away,
- 21:18you're hiding something.
- 21:22And Andrew Sten says, absolutely.
- 21:23Absolutely.
- 21:25uh why while the suggested
- 21:27floor plan had this set up
- 21:29I think they still set the
- 21:30camera too far back agreed
- 21:39um jonathan ortega says is
- 21:41that the case though I
- 21:42don't think athletes go and
- 21:43say I suck at a movement
- 21:45how do I hide it I i
- 21:47I think they know the
- 21:48movements they're going to
- 21:49ride the line on.
- 21:50I don't think they think they suck.
- 21:53I think they know which
- 21:54movements you're going to
- 21:56ride the line on and they
- 21:58do try to hide it.
- 22:03And it's been part of the
- 22:06space for a very long time.
- 22:10And I'm not picking on Dallin.
- 22:11Maybe Dallin didn't do that.
- 22:12But I do know that it's
- 22:13happened in the past.
- 22:15I just know that this example,
- 22:17I looked at this video,
- 22:19so I knew that the GHD
- 22:20machine was far away.
- 22:22And so if I fast forward
- 22:23this to where he's doing the GHD,
- 22:26for me to see the hip at the top,
- 22:29I can kind of tell.
- 22:31But there are times where he
- 22:32slides forward just a little bit,
- 22:37and it's hard to judge at this distance.
- 22:43So...
- 22:45don't know it's just really
- 22:48really far away but again
- 22:53I'm not picking on dallin I
- 22:59andrew stent says a hundred
- 23:00percent disagree jonathan
- 23:01many athletes play the game
- 23:02with video like wearing all
- 23:04black for squats which has
- 23:05been called out many many times yeah um
- 23:12And I don't even think
- 23:12Dallin was the most
- 23:13egregious at what was
- 23:15happening during the semifinals.
- 23:17So I hate that I used his video,
- 23:19but I just knew that it was far away.
- 23:21And so I was just using it as an example.
- 23:29Jonathan says,
- 23:29riding the line on movements
- 23:31is the name of the game.
- 23:33Right.
- 23:33And if I'm a judge and I see
- 23:34that you've moved the
- 23:35camera that far away from
- 23:36the part where you're riding the line,
- 23:38I'm going to look closer.
- 23:39That's what I'm just telling you.
- 23:46Shay says, but let's do more online comps.
- 23:49I know I hate, I hate online comps.
- 23:54Dave Castro actually
- 23:55announced that the masters
- 23:56might get an opportunity to
- 23:57do in person semis,
- 23:58but I'm going to save that
- 23:59topic for tomorrow with
- 24:01Corey as he is elated over
- 24:04that discussion or that announcement.
- 24:07And so I want to have that
- 24:08conversation with him tomorrow for sure.
- 24:12So
- 24:14Uh, there's that.
- 24:18Um, I know many of you, gosh, right.
- 24:21All of you have seen the
- 24:22video that Hiller shared a
- 24:24clip from Sunday night about,
- 24:27about me being reached out
- 24:28to by a prominent person in this,
- 24:29in the space,
- 24:30accusing me of group think I
- 24:33did want to follow that up with,
- 24:34I did get a call yesterday, um,
- 24:37with a sort of an apology on that, uh,
- 24:43and so what what I want to
- 24:45say about it is they came
- 24:47to the table with they
- 24:50wanted to explain
- 24:51themselves and what I told
- 24:53them is I have been in this
- 24:57space since I have built a
- 25:00reputation where I don't
- 25:02just bash on athletes I
- 25:04don't name names I don't
- 25:07do that I'm respectful
- 25:08because I do a lot of
- 25:09interviews and I want them
- 25:11to feel free to talk to me
- 25:13in an open and honest way
- 25:15and that I'm not going to
- 25:18use that against them in
- 25:19the in the future
- 25:22And so I've built this
- 25:24reputation that I felt like
- 25:26I should be given the
- 25:27benefit of the doubt
- 25:28whenever I make a statement.
- 25:30And they did not afford me that at all.
- 25:32I posted that out and you
- 25:34immediately accused me of
- 25:35group think and joining the
- 25:37herd and all of this stuff.
- 25:40And when I came back to you and said,
- 25:41haven't I earned more than this?
- 25:43They doubled down on that to me.
- 25:46And so, um,
- 25:49for that all to happen.
- 25:50And then, so during our phone call,
- 25:53an apology was given.
- 25:55And, um, and, and I think that our,
- 25:59our relationship has been
- 26:01reestablished and we've
- 26:03come to a pretty good understanding.
- 26:05And so I just wanted to
- 26:06follow up with that, um,
- 26:10with that because it was a
- 26:11good conversation after we
- 26:13both kind of set our peace and, um,
- 26:16and they did agree that I,
- 26:18I should have been afforded the up,
- 26:19the benefit of the doubt, um,
- 26:22on the first, when I,
- 26:24when I posted the picture
- 26:25of the pyramid doing the
- 26:26GHD sit up that I should
- 26:28have been afforded, um,
- 26:30the benefit of the doubt that I was just,
- 26:32I was doing it for good
- 26:33reasons and not to just bash people.
- 26:36So, um,
- 26:39So it was a good conversation.
- 26:41I did get an apology through that.
- 26:43And I think our relationship
- 26:48is cool again and I will
- 26:50continue to move forward in the space.
- 26:53And that's the last I need
- 26:54to talk about that.
- 27:01Patrick Clark, you're not just respectful.
- 27:03You are respected by athletes, peers,
- 27:05coaches, etc.
- 27:06I hope to.
- 27:07I mean, that's really my goal.
- 27:10I'm not doing this to hurt people.
- 27:12I love the people I cover.
- 27:16And I want to show them in
- 27:18the best light possible.
- 27:25ortega says it's okay to be
- 27:27upset it's okay to have
- 27:28feelings about it just
- 27:29accept it and move on or
- 27:30fight it and and get told
- 27:33no and then move on so yeah
- 27:42um and then I think that's
- 27:43where we're at we we had it
- 27:44out we talked it through um
- 27:47and nobody was yelling at
- 27:48each other yesterday it
- 27:49just was a good conversation and uh
- 27:52Yeah,
- 27:53I think we're all in a good place now,
- 27:54and we'll just move forward
- 27:58like nothing ever happened, I guess.
- 28:02But yeah, so that's happening.
- 28:05It's true.
- 28:06And then I got... So on Sunday night,
- 28:13I tried to explain what I think the...
- 28:20payout structure is with WFP.
- 28:23And it's based on things I
- 28:24heard from Will and Jackson
- 28:27in different interviews.
- 28:29And it was my understanding
- 28:30that the contract that they
- 28:32give to the athletes is a minimum.
- 28:35This is a minimum guaranteed
- 28:37amount of money that you
- 28:37are going to earn this year.
- 28:39Then through the course of the year,
- 28:41you're going to earn money
- 28:42at the events through prize money.
- 28:46And so you offset your
- 28:49contract with the prize
- 28:51money until your prize
- 28:52money goes over that guaranteed minimum.
- 28:56And then you start making more money.
- 28:59And I explained that on
- 28:59Sunday night and it's been
- 29:01clipped and it's been used
- 29:03in a couple of different areas.
- 29:05And I hope that I'm right.
- 29:06It's just my interpretation
- 29:08of what I've heard in
- 29:09different interviews with them.
- 29:13And it makes sense to me
- 29:16because when you're giving
- 29:18these guaranteed contracts,
- 29:19it's not like giving them
- 29:20money to come here.
- 29:21It's to say at the very least,
- 29:23you are going to make this
- 29:25dollar amount throughout the year.
- 29:28And then if you earn more
- 29:29than that over top of what
- 29:32the guaranteed minimum is,
- 29:34then you get that on top of
- 29:36everything else.
- 29:38I know Siobhan tried to ask
- 29:40Austin about that and he
- 29:41didn't really even care
- 29:43what anything of that was.
- 29:44He's just going to collect
- 29:45the check at the end of the
- 29:46year is kind of what he said.
- 29:48So I think,
- 29:50I hope I got it right since
- 29:52it's being clipped and used.
- 29:55And again, I'm, you know,
- 29:57the WFP has said that
- 29:58they're going to get me one of the
- 30:02uh,
- 30:03one of the people from WFP on the show
- 30:05this week or next week.
- 30:07And I will ask and confirm
- 30:10all of that when I have
- 30:11them on to make sure that, uh,
- 30:14to make sure that I have that accurately.
- 30:20Uh, Jonathan Ortega says, Scott,
- 30:21your hair looks real good.
- 30:22Thanks, man.
- 30:24It's just really long.
- 30:26And, uh, with my wife, uh,
- 30:29Recovering from knee surgery,
- 30:31I just can't get out to get it cut.
- 30:34So here we are.
- 30:35And maybe I'll just keep it
- 30:36like this for a while.
- 30:38Ken Walters, it's like in sales,
- 30:40it's a draw against commission.
- 30:41Yeah.
- 30:44I think that's the best way to put it.
- 30:47But what I find funny is
- 30:49people math has always come
- 30:51pretty easy to me,
- 30:52but when I watch people try
- 30:53to do math that it's not easy for them.
- 30:56I think it's pretty comical
- 30:58trying to do that in their head.
- 31:00I find it amusing.
- 31:03A little bit the same Um,
- 31:09The last thing I'm going to
- 31:10talk about today is because
- 31:12we talk about some entertainment stuff.
- 31:14One of the shows that I've
- 31:15found very entertaining on
- 31:17TV is the show found.
- 31:19If you've never seen it,
- 31:21it is a woman who was
- 31:23abducted as a child.
- 31:25She finds her abductor late
- 31:27in life and she holds him
- 31:30captive in the basement of
- 31:31her house in kind of like a
- 31:34revenge thing.
- 31:36And then her job has been to
- 31:38find missing children in her adult life.
- 31:42And then what she finds out
- 31:43through the first season of
- 31:44the show is that this guy
- 31:47she has locked up in her
- 31:48basement can actually help
- 31:50her find some of these
- 31:51children because he thinks
- 31:53like the child abductors
- 31:56that are out there today.
- 31:59And he can identify the
- 32:01reasons behind why they're doing this,
- 32:03and it helps her to find these children.
- 32:06Um, I really enjoy the show a lot.
- 32:08And I think the second
- 32:09season is even better than the first.
- 32:11Um,
- 32:12once they got past some weirdness at
- 32:14the beginning of the season,
- 32:16but they do capture this
- 32:17guy and they lock him up.
- 32:20Um, and so it makes it hard.
- 32:23I was wondering where
- 32:23they're going to go with it,
- 32:24but they have found enough
- 32:26content to keep it going.
- 32:29But then it got canceled.
- 32:31So NBC cancels it.
- 32:32And they canceled like five shows.
- 32:35And this is where I really
- 32:36wanted to go with it.
- 32:38The traditional networks,
- 32:39like I'm fifty five.
- 32:41If you wanted to watch a
- 32:42show in most of my adult life,
- 32:45you watch on ABC, NBC, CBS or Fox.
- 32:50And when I was a kid,
- 32:51Fox didn't even exist.
- 32:53So you had to watch it in
- 32:55those traditional manners.
- 32:57Now you see these networks
- 32:58like canceling all these mainstream shows,
- 33:01scripted shows,
- 33:02and they're saying that the
- 33:03cost of running them and
- 33:05paying the actors and
- 33:06everybody behind it is getting too much.
- 33:10So NBC has canceled five shows,
- 33:12and they're not really
- 33:14bringing anything new in
- 33:15other than the NBA.
- 33:18And so my question to you is,
- 33:20are we going to use these
- 33:24traditional networks now as
- 33:27live action sports like the NFL, hockey,
- 33:34NBA?
- 33:36taking up college football,
- 33:38taking up most of the prime
- 33:40time schedule.
- 33:41Cause like NBC now is going
- 33:42to have Tuesday night, NBA basketball.
- 33:44You're going to have Saturday night,
- 33:45college football.
- 33:46They're going to have Sunday night,
- 33:48NFL football.
- 33:49And those are three of the
- 33:51seven prime time nights.
- 33:53And they're being taken up by live sports.
- 33:56And then it's going to be
- 33:57accentuated with non-scripted TV.
- 34:01Like Jimmy Fallon has a new
- 34:02show that's going to,
- 34:04it's apprentice-like,
- 34:05but in the marketing world.
- 34:06And it's going to be unscripted.
- 34:08And it's a contest for
- 34:10people that are going to win.
- 34:11They're bringing back old
- 34:13classic game shows like Family Feud,
- 34:18Twenty Five Thousand Dollar Pyramid.
- 34:22Wheel of Fortune primetime.
- 34:24Jeopardy now runs a primetime hour.
- 34:27All of that stuff that's
- 34:28unscripted and much cheaper to run.
- 34:32my, my answer, my question to you is,
- 34:35is that going to be our
- 34:36television on the main networks?
- 34:38Because they've given up to
- 34:40the streaming services who
- 34:41are producing better
- 34:42content like Yellowstone
- 34:45and Landman and the last of us.
- 34:49And, and I can go on and on and on.
- 34:51And all of those are on
- 34:52streaming services rather
- 34:54than on the traditional networks.
- 34:56They're the ones winning the awards.
- 34:58They're the ones getting the
- 34:59higher ratings.
- 35:01Um,
- 35:03I it's just like this big
- 35:06epic shift in my life from
- 35:09growing up with CBS, NBC, ABC,
- 35:13and now we're going to all
- 35:15the good content is going
- 35:17to be on Netflix,
- 35:20max Apple plus all of that.
- 35:24And then the traditional
- 35:25networks are going to be
- 35:26all live sports and all unscripted TV.
- 35:35Ken Walter says sports bring
- 35:37in billion dollar contracts to networks.
- 35:40The new shows they have to
- 35:42pay out to actor streaming
- 35:44services fund the cost
- 35:45through subscriptions.
- 35:47Yeah, I don't, I don't disagree,
- 35:51but it's just, it's just, and can you're,
- 35:55you're in my age bracket.
- 35:56Like when we grew up, all of the,
- 35:59the good scripted TV was on
- 36:01the main networks.
- 36:03And now it's, it's,
- 36:04it's going to the streaming services.
- 36:07And I don't, and I love live sports.
- 36:09So I'm cool with like having
- 36:11a Saturday night football
- 36:12game and having a Sunday
- 36:14night football game.
- 36:16Now I'm not as big of an NBA fan.
- 36:19So, but I can, I mean,
- 36:20I have other options, but,
- 36:22So I can watch things there.
- 36:24The only thing that bums me
- 36:26out is I also grew up with
- 36:28like a show season that was
- 36:32like twenty to twenty three episodes.
- 36:35And now,
- 36:35like all of the big shows are like
- 36:37ten episodes, eight episodes.
- 36:39So your season's like super short.
- 36:42And if you binge it like
- 36:43you're done and it's over.
- 36:46Come on, kid.
- 36:51You may be chronologically a
- 36:54little bit older than me,
- 36:56but like physically and mentally, man,
- 37:00you're right here in our wheelhouse.
- 37:05but yes, it's just, it's just weird.
- 37:07It's just weird that there's
- 37:09this like seismic shift all
- 37:10of a sudden where like
- 37:12these networks are canceling shows.
- 37:15They're getting good ratings because it's,
- 37:17and just because they can
- 37:19do it cheaper other ways, um, is,
- 37:23is just mind boggling to me.
- 37:25So it was just an
- 37:27observation I made as I'm
- 37:29kind of looking at the news and,
- 37:31and different things going
- 37:32on in entertainment.
- 37:34Um,
- 37:36But yeah.
- 37:38So and then yesterday I
- 37:40talked about the movie Love Hurts,
- 37:43which is old school Jackie
- 37:45Chan kung fu movie.
- 37:48It's actually free on Peacock now.
- 37:50So you can stream it on
- 37:51Peacock if you have that.
- 37:53Again, my wife hated it.
- 37:55So I'm not giving you like a
- 37:56full on recommendation of that movie.
- 37:59My wife hated it.
- 38:00I like the nostalgic Jackie
- 38:02Chan kung fu part of it.
- 38:04I love the athleticism in
- 38:06the in that aspect of everything.
- 38:09And the funny ways that if
- 38:12you if you ever watch that kind of stuff,
- 38:15like earlier on in your life,
- 38:18I think you'll enjoy.
- 38:21So but that's really all I have today.
- 38:24I'm sure we're going to get
- 38:25some men's shifts on the
- 38:26leaderboard either today or tomorrow.
- 38:29And we'll go ahead and talk about those.
- 38:31And again,
- 38:32we can talk about Dave's week in
- 38:34review tomorrow as well with Corey,
- 38:38because he did make an announcement.
- 38:40That's pretty cool about
- 38:42what's happening in the age groups,
- 38:44getting their opportunity
- 38:45to qualify for the games
- 38:46with in-person semifinals.
- 38:49And I know Corey wants to
- 38:50talk about that badly.
- 38:51So he'll be on tomorrow
- 38:53cooking Cajun with him.
- 38:55And with that, guys,
- 38:57I need to get back to work
- 38:58today because my coworkers are out.
- 39:01So I'm getting all of their stuff,
- 39:04stuff ready.
- 39:05um as well today so I've got
- 39:07to get back to work so you
- 39:08knuckleheads get back to
- 39:10work as well we'll see
- 39:11everybody next time on
- 39:13lunch with the clydesdale bye guys
