  What is going on, everybody?
• 0:35
  Welcome to Lunchtime Lunch
• 0:37
  with the Clydesdale.
• 0:38
  It is a Thursday afternoon.
• 0:41
  So good to hang with you guys, man.
• 0:43
  What's up?
• 0:44
  The two Jeffs are in the chat already.
• 0:47
  What's going on, guys?
• 0:50
  Just got back from a pulmonary...
• 0:55
  Tim Nekritz .
• 0:55
  test I don't know what they
• 0:56
  call it exactly pulmonary
• 1:00
  performance test something like that.
• 1:02
  Tim Nekritz .
• 1:04
  Essentially, I had to.
• 1:05
  Tim Nekritz .
• 1:07
  sit in a booth with.
• 1:12
  a mask that had a tube,
• 1:17
  looked like Bane from Batman,
• 1:19
  kind of in my face, in my mouth.
• 1:23
  And basically,
• 1:25
  it just recorded how I was breathing,
• 1:28
  doing different exercises through that.
• 1:31
  And I went through a step of
• 1:32
  three different exercises,
• 1:35
  One where I breathed in very
• 1:36
  deep and then exhaled as
• 1:38
  far as I possibly could
• 1:40
  until I felt like I was
• 1:41
  going to black out.
• 1:42
  And then breathe back in
• 1:44
  really quickly all while I
• 1:46
  geared up to this equipment.
• 1:48
  And then I did...
• 1:52
  the other one was more of
• 1:53
  like a slow kind of deep breath, exhale.
• 1:59
  And then the last one was
• 2:01
  like this puff test where you just like,
• 2:03
  you just ha ha ha ha out the, uh,
• 2:08
  your mouth and then all of a
• 2:09
  sudden like they block the
• 2:11
  exit and you have to like
• 2:13
  keep ha ha ha up against
• 2:16
  this this wall and it reads
• 2:19
  like how forceful you can
• 2:21
  breathe in and breathe out um
• 2:24
  But I've been dealing with this,
• 2:27
  and I've said it on, you know,
• 2:29
  ever since the COVID crap,
• 2:33
  I've been dealing with stuff like a cough,
• 2:36
  sinuses, all this kind of stuff.
• 2:38
  And so this is a test to see
• 2:41
  where my lungs are through
• 2:43
  all this thing and what can
• 2:44
  we do to kind of rectify that.
• 2:48
  So I do those three tests.
• 2:51
  And then they gave me an
• 2:52
  albuterol breathing
• 2:53
  treatment and then put me
• 2:55
  through the first test again.
• 2:58
  Um, so I did all that took about an hour.
• 3:02
  Uh, and then when, then it's all done,
• 3:07
  I'd have no idea what the results are.
• 3:09
  Um,
• 3:09
  I have a pulmonology doctor appointment
• 3:14
  next month where they'll
• 3:15
  take that stuff and, um,
• 3:20
  read it,
• 3:20
  and give me the results and find
• 3:22
  out a way to try to help me
• 3:24
  get over all of this sinus-y,
• 3:28
  coffee thing that I've had going on.
• 3:30
  Now,
• 3:31
  since I've been treated for the pneumonia,
• 3:33
  which my doctor believes
• 3:34
  was a long-term pneumonia
• 3:36
  from a couple weeks ago,
• 3:39
  I have not been coughing
• 3:40
  very much since then.
• 3:42
  So it's...
• 3:44
  So that's improved things tremendously.
• 3:47
  And I know that John says I
• 3:49
  sound better than I did a few weeks ago.
• 3:51
  Yeah, I feel so much better.
• 3:56
  So, yeah.
• 3:59
  I feel so much better.
• 4:00
  So hopefully we're finally
• 4:01
  finding some answers and
• 4:03
  getting to the root cause
• 4:04
  of the problem to see where
• 4:06
  we go from there.
• 4:09
  Do we know any exercise
• 4:10
  regimen to make your lungs
• 4:11
  lungs stronger?
• 4:12
  So that's the thing like
• 4:13
  I've been crossfitting
• 4:14
  through this but like I
• 4:16
  have to stop and like I
• 4:18
  cough up junk and Like I if
• 4:21
  I'm when I was at Polaris,
• 4:23
  I would run outside and
• 4:24
  spit if I'm in my garage.
• 4:26
  It's much easier I just run
• 4:27
  out and spit and so
• 4:31
  yeah trying trying to do
• 4:33
  that and hoping that once
• 4:35
  we get this fixed then my
• 4:37
  intensity can go back up on
• 4:39
  the crossfit stuff and
• 4:41
  really start making some
• 4:42
  hay in my weight loss journey so
• 4:53
  how about saunas that
• 4:54
  cleared a partial pneumonia
• 4:55
  for me once it definitely
• 4:56
  made me feel better during
• 4:57
  the process so I've done
• 4:59
  that where I've turned on
• 5:00
  like I've simulated a sauna
• 5:02
  by just cranking up the um
• 5:05
  the hot water in my shower
• 5:08
  getting that steam going
• 5:09
  stuff like that uh swim
• 5:15
  hypoxic breath holds yeah
• 5:19
  I've tried a lot of different things,
• 5:21
  guys.
• 5:22
  A lot of different things.
• 5:23
  This has been going on for a couple years.
• 5:26
  So I'm really excited to hear.
• 5:29
  I've heard this
• 5:30
  pulmonologist is like the best in Ohio.
• 5:34
  And so I'm excited to see
• 5:36
  what this test shows and
• 5:38
  where we go from here.
• 5:39
  Again,
• 5:39
  I feel so much better today than I
• 5:42
  did a few weeks ago.
• 5:43
  And hopefully this is just
• 5:44
  the first step in the overall process.
• 5:51
  I'm literally sitting in a
• 5:52
  sauna right now.
• 5:53
  That actually feels kind of good.
• 5:55
  It sounds good.
• 5:56
  Sounds good.
• 6:00
  My lungs made me stop too, Scott.
• 6:01
  Yep.
• 6:04
  I got to get them back.
• 6:04
  Got to get them back.
• 6:08
  I got to get back to where like I can,
• 6:10
  I can do some running again.
• 6:14
  I got to a point last time
• 6:16
  when I lost all the weight and,
• 6:18
  where like my running wasn't
• 6:20
  the thing that I dreaded
• 6:21
  the most in a workout,
• 6:23
  because if you just find the right pace,
• 6:27
  it is what it is.
• 6:28
  It, your time is what it is,
• 6:30
  but at least I didn't hate it anymore.
• 6:32
  Like I kind of embraced it as, uh,
• 6:36
  something that I could do at my own pace.
• 6:38
  So I want to get back to that,
• 6:43
  but we're fighting to get
• 6:44
  there and hopefully the
• 6:46
  answers are coming soon.
• 6:53
  Joseph, he hates running no matter what.
• 6:57
  Yeah, I was there at one point,
• 6:59
  and then I got to a point
• 7:00
  where I didn't hate it anymore.
• 7:02
  I would never say it was my first love,
• 7:05
  but I got to a point where
• 7:06
  I didn't hate it.
• 7:11
  So there.
• 7:16
  So a lot's happened in the
• 7:18
  last twenty four hours,
• 7:20
  and I don't want to.
• 7:23
  don't want to spend the
• 7:24
  whole show on what's going
• 7:26
  on but I'm having a tough
• 7:29
  time with the last twenty
• 7:30
  four hours I'll be honest
• 7:32
  with you guys uh today is
• 7:35
  the anniversary of nine
• 7:36
  eleven it's been twenty
• 7:38
  four years uh since this
• 7:42
  large attack on the us
• 7:44
  happened um out of pure hate and
• 7:51
  And I thought in that moment,
• 7:54
  I thought in that moment
• 7:55
  that we as a country would
• 7:57
  move past some of this and
• 8:00
  some of this hate.
• 8:03
  And it just seems like in
• 8:06
  even more than the last
• 8:07
  twenty four hours in the last week,
• 8:08
  in the last month,
• 8:10
  like the amount of hate
• 8:12
  that's going on in our
• 8:13
  country is unnerving.
• 8:17
  Unnerving.
• 8:18
  And it.
• 8:21
  I'm having a hard time dealing with it.
• 8:23
  I'll be honest with you.
• 8:24
  Like I grew up in a
• 8:26
  household where my parents
• 8:30
  promoted debate.
• 8:35
  I didn't always see eye to
• 8:36
  eye with my parents on subjects.
• 8:40
  My dad was very old school
• 8:43
  and I brought different
• 8:44
  ideas into the house and
• 8:47
  And we would sit around the
• 8:48
  dining room table and we would,
• 8:51
  we would debate those
• 8:52
  issues in a calm manner, just have,
• 8:55
  have lengthy discussions.
• 8:57
  And I thank my parents so
• 8:59
  much for promoting that in
• 9:00
  our house that we could
• 9:02
  have those discussions.
• 9:04
  And at the end of the day,
• 9:05
  we all loved each other,
• 9:07
  even though we looked at
• 9:08
  things from a different
• 9:08
  lens and we had different
• 9:10
  ideas about things and we
• 9:12
  had different beliefs at times.
• 9:14
  Um,
• 9:17
  I just feel like when you're
• 9:22
  born and you're raised by a family,
• 9:25
  you're given a set of ideals to go by.
• 9:29
  And at some point,
• 9:31
  those change and those
• 9:32
  develop over time depending
• 9:34
  on your experiences and who
• 9:36
  you surround yourself so much.
• 9:43
  With that, you learn.
• 9:45
  If you just listen to
• 9:50
  different people and
• 9:51
  different perspectives,
• 9:53
  you learn where they come from.
• 9:55
  And at the very least,
• 9:55
  you get an understanding.
• 9:58
  It doesn't mean you're going
• 9:59
  to be swayed in a different direction,
• 10:02
  but then at least you can
• 10:03
  understand where they're coming from.
• 10:07
  And I guess I just was
• 10:08
  raised that it was okay
• 10:10
  that you and I don't agree on this thing.
• 10:14
  We can still love each other
• 10:16
  at the end of the day,
• 10:19
  but we can also learn from
• 10:20
  each other and we can
• 10:21
  understand each other.
• 10:23
  All of that has seemingly
• 10:26
  gone out the window.
• 10:29
  And I know it's probably
• 10:30
  just a small percentage of
• 10:31
  the population where this is happening,
• 10:33
  but it just feels like the
• 10:34
  country is at a divide and
• 10:37
  there's so much hatred.
• 10:38
  There's no talking to each other.
• 10:41
  There's no listening going on anymore.
• 10:43
  And when you don't listen to others,
• 10:46
  you fail to grow.
• 10:49
  You fail to grow as a human
• 10:52
  because you only look at
• 10:53
  things with one lens and
• 10:56
  And then you cannot
• 10:57
  understand what's going on anymore.
• 11:04
  I don't want to stop growing.
• 11:06
  I want to learn why people
• 11:07
  feel the way they do.
• 11:08
  I want to learn why people
• 11:10
  think the way they do.
• 11:13
  And the more I understand that,
• 11:16
  the better I can move on
• 11:17
  with my life and my direction.
• 11:27
  It's so freaking frustrating
• 11:31
  that this is where it's at,
• 11:36
  that I'm in my own echo
• 11:37
  chamber and I cannot listen
• 11:39
  to anything outside of it.
• 11:41
  And not only can I not be swayed,
• 11:44
  I can't understand.
• 11:47
  I can't even understand that
• 11:48
  you grew up differently,
• 11:50
  that you were given
• 11:51
  different set of values,
• 11:53
  and that you may look at
• 11:54
  the world in a different way.
• 11:57
  That's what I can't believe is happening.
• 12:02
  And because of that,
• 12:04
  you will fail to grow as a
• 12:05
  human being because you
• 12:07
  only surround yourself with
• 12:08
  your own perspective and what you know.
• 12:16
  And I thought we learned a lesson on nine,
• 12:18
  eleven in two thousand and one,
• 12:20
  but apparently twenty four years later,
• 12:22
  we are still.
• 12:25
  down the same damn rabbit hole,
• 12:38
  sort of like CrossFit and the WFP,
• 12:41
  I guess, but way, way less, way less.
• 12:54
  Jake says tribes.
• 12:56
  We all feel safe and people
• 12:58
  feel safe in their tribe.
• 13:00
  But there's no growth in safety.
• 13:04
  There's no growth because
• 13:07
  you're not learning anything new.
• 13:12
  You're just going to be
• 13:13
  stuck with the same comfy blanket,
• 13:16
  the same comfy people,
• 13:19
  because you're not willing
• 13:20
  to listen to others and understand.
• 13:32
  Exactly.
• 13:33
  Thank you, Jake.
• 13:37
  Ken Walters.
• 13:39
  It took me three years,
• 13:40
  but I love Jake now.
• 13:41
  See?
• 13:42
  See, Ken finally listened.
• 13:44
  Ken finally listened to Jake,
• 13:46
  and now he can love on Jake.
• 13:56
  No growth and comfort.
• 13:57
  No comfort and growth.
• 13:59
  That's it, man.
• 14:00
  That's it.
• 14:05
  And again,
• 14:10
  I don't want to turn the whole
• 14:10
  show into what happened
• 14:14
  yesterday with Charlie Kirk.
• 14:18
  But it just came to a head
• 14:20
  where at least I had to
• 14:20
  acknowledge it on the
• 14:22
  anniversary of nine eleven.
• 14:23
  They were going down a bad path.
• 14:35
  vindicates us.
• 14:36
  Someone should make that shirt, Corey.
• 14:38
  And wouldn't that be a cool shirt?
• 14:47
  People need to listen.
• 14:47
  We don't have to agree and that's okay.
• 14:49
  Just be kind.
• 14:52
  Just be kind.
• 14:57
  It seems so simple.
• 15:00
  I mean, I am a, I'm a Christian man.
• 15:06
  my bible says love your
• 15:08
  neighbor as you love
• 15:09
  yourself there are no
• 15:12
  exemptions to that none but
• 15:23
  anyway without growth
• 15:28
  things jake thought you
• 15:33
  were being serious for a second
• 15:39
  Claire,
• 15:39
  I appreciate you for acknowledging it.
• 15:43
  Yeah, I've debated.
• 15:45
  I listened to you and CJ
• 15:46
  this morning on my way to my test.
• 15:50
  And I could feel you guys
• 15:56
  wanting to talk about it, but it's hard.
• 15:59
  I've been thinking about
• 16:00
  this for almost twenty four hours.
• 16:02
  Like,
• 16:03
  where do I go with this and how do I
• 16:05
  talk about it and how do I make it?
• 16:11
  how do I make it make sense?
• 16:12
  And I, you can't,
• 16:14
  this does not make sense.
• 16:16
  None of it makes sense.
• 16:18
  So to even think that that's
• 16:19
  something that's possible
• 16:21
  is way above me.
• 16:26
  And I just want to acknowledge that nine,
• 16:31
  eleven impacted me deeply.
• 16:32
  I remember where I was that day.
• 16:34
  I remember where, um,
• 16:42
  I, my daughter was just born on nine,
• 16:44
  just before nine,
• 16:45
  it was like the first week
• 16:49
  or two that we had her in daycare.
• 16:51
  My wife had just gone back
• 16:53
  to work and all this happened.
• 16:55
  And all I could think of is
• 16:57
  I just want to hug my baby.
• 17:00
  And I left work and I went
• 17:02
  to get her and it was such a quiet,
• 17:05
  ominous day.
• 17:07
  There were no planes in the sky.
• 17:09
  There were no cars on the road.
• 17:12
  It was crazy.
• 17:14
  And I thought that that day we learned.
• 17:17
  We learned that we should
• 17:19
  stop and listen and
• 17:20
  understand and stop the hate.
• 17:23
  And here we are, twenty four years later,
• 17:26
  and it's not any better.
• 17:37
  Yet again,
• 17:38
  we have engineered ourselves into illness,
• 17:41
  in this case, emotional, mental,
• 17:42
  and spiritual.
• 17:48
  So, my advice is,
• 17:55
  you have two ears and one mouth.
• 17:57
  Listen more than you talk.
• 17:59
  Understand, be forgiving,
• 18:03
  and love your neighbor.
• 18:05
  And love on each other.
• 18:07
  And make sure you hug your
• 18:08
  loved ones today and let
• 18:09
  them know how much you love them.
• 18:11
  The image that is killing me
• 18:13
  today is seeing Charlie on
• 18:16
  the beach with his wife and
• 18:18
  kids and that those kids
• 18:21
  are now orphaned from their,
• 18:23
  they will not have a father and, um,
• 18:27
  a wife that has lost her husband.
• 18:29
  It did.
• 18:31
  That is devastating to me as
• 18:33
  a father and a husband.
• 18:43
  don't be an to each other
• 18:45
  that's uh amy who who is my
• 18:49
  friend who used to be on
• 18:50
  the show their family motto
• 18:51
  is don't be a dick so many
• 18:59
  of my friends feel
• 19:00
  differently than I do about
• 19:02
  a lot of things but it
• 19:03
  doesn't mean we can't be
• 19:04
  friends and we can't
• 19:05
  understand each other
• 19:19
  Now Jake is getting deep.
• 19:22
  This is a very similar
• 19:23
  position Europe found
• 19:24
  itself in after World War
• 19:25
  I. We wanted peace and calm
• 19:27
  and overall love.
• 19:28
  It built a soft economy and
• 19:30
  led to World War II.
• 19:31
  We humans require hardship.
• 19:42
  All right, guys.
• 19:45
  I don't want, like I said,
• 19:46
  I don't want this to be the whole show.
• 19:47
  So I'm going to click over
• 19:48
  to some other stuff.
• 19:50
  Um,
• 19:51
  before I get into like my main topic to
• 19:53
  finish up today.
• 19:54
  And I do have to get back to
• 19:56
  work at one today because I
• 19:58
  was off all morning for that test.
• 20:01
  Um, so I have to get back for that, but I,
• 20:04
  you know,
• 20:04
  that the service cup is coming up.
• 20:08
  Um,
• 20:08
  and I'm going to talk a little bit
• 20:09
  about adaptive games too.
• 20:11
  Um,
• 20:14
  Camel City CrossFit finished
• 20:15
  third at the CrossFit Games
• 20:17
  this year on a team.
• 20:20
  These two ladies are both
• 20:21
  Masters athletes.
• 20:23
  One of them is Caroline Klutz.
• 20:24
  The other is Stevie Dellinger.
• 20:27
  I got to meet Caroline last
• 20:29
  year at the Masters CrossFit Games.
• 20:31
  She's an amazing person.
• 20:33
  But what I love about this team is,
• 20:35
  and I love that they're
• 20:36
  being highlighted by CrossFit,
• 20:40
  Uh, Lee Sharon,
• 20:42
  who has been on the show
• 20:43
  before is a police officer.
• 20:46
  Uh, he is in the service cup, uh,
• 20:48
  as a police officer.
• 20:50
  Um, Evan Rogers,
• 20:51
  the other male on the team
• 20:52
  is a firefighter.
• 20:55
  Um, and they give his stats here.
• 20:59
  Stevie Dellinger is a CrossFit coach,
• 21:01
  which is one of the, um,
• 21:04
  categories as well in the service cup.
• 21:09
  And finally,
• 21:10
  Caroline Klutz is a registered dietitian,
• 21:12
  and she qualifies in the medical field.
• 21:14
  They all are service
• 21:17
  providers and are eligible
• 21:19
  for the Service Cup,
• 21:20
  and they're all on one team.
• 21:21
  And I found that that was a really,
• 21:23
  really cool story.
• 21:24
  And if you want to read more
• 21:25
  about each person,
• 21:27
  you can go check that out
• 21:29
  on the CrossFit Instagram account.
• 21:34
  And I think Mayhem posted this as well.
• 21:36
  So you can check CrossFit or Mayhem.
• 21:48
  So there you go.
• 21:58
  Okay,
• 21:59
  you guys are talking about something
• 22:00
  else.
• 22:00
  All right.
• 22:01
  So anyway, I found this very fascinating.
• 22:02
  So go check that out.
• 22:03
  They're all cool people.
• 22:06
  And I love that we're doing
• 22:07
  the Service Cup.
• 22:07
  It's being done through Mayhem.
• 22:10
  And at the end of this whole endeavor,
• 22:13
  they're all invited to
• 22:14
  Cookville to compete at
• 22:16
  Mayhem for the title of the
• 22:18
  different divisions.
• 22:21
  So I think that's really awesome.
• 22:23
  Plus, my own co-host is a schoolteacher.
• 22:25
  She has been fittest
• 22:26
  schoolteacher in the world before.
• 22:29
  Um,
• 22:29
  so it's cool that she is doing that as
• 22:32
  well.
• 22:32
  I don't know if she's doing
• 22:33
  the service cup,
• 22:34
  but she has in the past and she has one.
• 22:39
  So there is that.
• 22:42
  Also,
• 22:42
  we have the adaptive CrossFit games
• 22:44
  coming up this weekend in Las Vegas.
• 22:47
  I think they start today or tomorrow.
• 22:52
  So many different divisions.
• 22:56
  It is going to be announced
• 22:57
  by Bill Grundler and Jeremy Austin.
• 23:00
  They did a yeoman's work job last year,
• 23:05
  announcing all the different divisions.
• 23:09
  So...
• 23:11
  Tremendous job by them.
• 23:12
  They made it so much fun to watch.
• 23:15
  I hope that we get a chance
• 23:16
  to watch this year and see
• 23:19
  what they can do.
• 23:21
  But that starts either today or tomorrow.
• 23:23
  And it is awesome all weekend long.
• 23:26
  Make sure you go check it
• 23:27
  out and at least give them some love.
• 23:29
  Like go to the website.
• 23:31
  or go to the YouTube channel
• 23:33
  and just click on it,
• 23:34
  give them some views.
• 23:36
  Um, it,
• 23:37
  that helps them so much in this
• 23:39
  whole endeavor.
• 23:40
  And it's a little thing we
• 23:42
  can do as a community to
• 23:44
  support the adaptive athletes, um,
• 23:46
  who aren't doing this for money.
• 23:48
  They're doing it for the fun
• 23:49
  and the glory of hanging
• 23:50
  out with each other.
• 23:52
  And, uh,
• 23:53
  just click on their YouTube
• 23:54
  channel for a little bit each day,
• 23:56
  this weekend, it goes a long, long way.
• 24:00
  Holly is, athlete checking is today.
• 24:03
  Events start tomorrow.
• 24:05
  So there you go.
• 24:09
  Ed AI,
• 24:10
  no way could I beat Carolyn for
• 24:12
  fittest teacher.
• 24:13
  Maybe fittest teacher in my state.
• 24:19
  So there you go.
• 24:22
  Yeah.
• 24:25
  So here is my last question.
• 24:30
  to you guys when I was growing up.
• 24:33
  Um,
• 24:34
  and I was watching sports a lot as a kid,
• 24:37
  right?
• 24:38
  The big, the big endorsement deals, um,
• 24:43
  for different athletes were like,
• 24:45
  if you got the Gatorade
• 24:46
  deal or if you got the Nike deal,
• 24:48
  or if you got the Wheaties box,
• 24:50
  those were the big deal
• 24:52
  endorsement deals in, um,
• 24:56
  in sports overall as when I
• 24:58
  was a child now we look at
• 25:00
  the crossfit space and when
• 25:03
  it when crossfit was first
• 25:05
  going the reebok deal was
• 25:07
  the big deal right they
• 25:08
  were the big sponsor if you
• 25:10
  got the reebok deal it
• 25:11
  meant that you had made it
• 25:14
  then you know noble came in
• 25:16
  the picture and
• 25:19
  Go Ruck was here for a half second.
• 25:23
  We had those different things.
• 25:25
  Tears been here.
• 25:27
  My question to you is,
• 25:29
  do we have that deal in the
• 25:32
  CrossFit space that is that
• 25:36
  I've made it deal?
• 25:39
  Like when you sign with them,
• 25:41
  I've made it.
• 25:44
  When I was thinking about this last night,
• 25:48
  I was thinking like,
• 25:49
  I don't think there is one anymore.
• 25:52
  And then Jeff Baco just proved me wrong.
• 25:56
  That's the one.
• 25:58
  When you become a rogue athlete,
• 25:59
  that is the I've made it deal.
• 26:04
  That is.
• 26:09
  Yeah,
• 26:09
  Jason Hopper just named as a rogue
• 26:11
  athlete.
• 26:12
  Dallin Pepper got that last year.
• 26:14
  Ariel Lowen got that last year.
• 26:17
  Um, I think that's it,
• 26:20
  but that there are no shoe
• 26:22
  deals anymore that are the
• 26:24
  epitome of the sport or, um,
• 26:28
  or apparel deals.
• 26:30
  Maybe, uh, maybe Adidas can be that.
• 26:34
  Um, but I don't know.
• 26:37
  We thought that maybe with
• 26:38
  go rock or maybe with, I don't know.
• 26:47
  So Corey says, Rogue,
• 26:48
  the only other one even
• 26:49
  close is maybe Tier.
• 26:51
  I don't think Tier's like...
• 26:54
  Tier went after so many athletes,
• 26:56
  and I'm guessing because of that,
• 26:58
  the deals aren't that big
• 27:01
  because there's so many athletes.
• 27:03
  You know,
• 27:04
  when you spread the peanut butter
• 27:05
  that thin...
• 27:06
  You don't get that big gooey
• 27:08
  center where someone gets a
• 27:09
  lot of peanut butter, right?
• 27:11
  It is just spread so thin.
• 27:14
  And I've talked to a few
• 27:15
  athletes that they weren't
• 27:17
  compensated that great from tier.
• 27:20
  Now that this athlete was more at the time,
• 27:23
  upper to mid level that I
• 27:25
  talked to about the deal.
• 27:27
  So it wasn't like the Pat
• 27:31
  Vellner's and the Fikowski's and the,
• 27:36
  even the Alexis Raptuses of the world.
• 27:39
  Um,
• 27:40
  they may have got a more sweet deal
• 27:42
  than some people, but the,
• 27:45
  the person I talked to at
• 27:46
  the time didn't really get a lot, uh,
• 27:49
  for their, their tier deal.
• 28:03
  Um,
• 28:07
  Yeah, I think Adidas is coming up,
• 28:09
  but they're going to have
• 28:10
  to show that they're going
• 28:11
  to stay with it.
• 28:12
  And if they go all WFP,
• 28:14
  what does that mean?
• 28:17
  Because they're sponsoring their events.
• 28:20
  So that's going to be
• 28:21
  interesting to watch.
• 28:23
  Ken Walter still buys Margot
• 28:25
  Alvarez rogue athlete shirts.
• 28:28
  Yeah.
• 28:30
  And look at that deal.
• 28:31
  Like,
• 28:31
  Margo still gets invited to the
• 28:33
  Legends competition every year at Rogue,
• 28:36
  gets the trip, gets the whole nine.
• 28:40
  Like,
• 28:40
  it means something to be a Rogue athlete.
• 28:43
  They still take care of her
• 28:44
  five years after retirement.
• 28:53
  I agree with you, Sean.
• 28:55
  What would top rogue?
• 28:56
  It would probably have to
• 28:57
  come from outside the CrossFit space,
• 28:59
  like a Gatorade or a Nike.
• 29:06
  I think tier is huge, Barry, and I do,
• 29:08
  but I don't know if... Like I said,
• 29:11
  I've heard some of the compensation,
• 29:13
  and it's not the deal that
• 29:15
  I think people think it is.
• 29:17
  And again,
• 29:18
  I have not talked to their top athletes,
• 29:21
  a Roman...
• 29:23
  Someone like that.
• 29:24
  So I don't know.
• 29:26
  And I've never talked to a head to toe.
• 29:28
  It's only been the shoe deal.
• 29:33
  Amy Kringle is rad.
• 29:34
  And Jim Shark,
• 29:36
  given they just made a
• 29:37
  collab with the two,
• 29:39
  that signing is huge.
• 29:44
  She may have made out big in that deal,
• 29:47
  but I don't think anybody
• 29:48
  up and coming is going, man,
• 29:51
  I hope I get the Gymshark deal.
• 29:54
  It just doesn't invoke that same,
• 29:56
  like I've made it.
• 29:58
  Maybe Rad is kind of coming up that way,
• 30:02
  but I don't think Gymshark is for sure.
• 30:07
  Lito now wants some peanut butter.
• 30:10
  Don't you always want peanut butter?
• 30:14
  I'd never turn peanut butter down.
• 30:26
  Those new tier slide on
• 30:27
  shoes might be the ugliest
• 30:29
  thing in the space.
• 30:31
  And I am really biased against tier.
• 30:33
  Their shoes are not comfortable for me.
• 30:35
  They hurt my Achilles heel tremendously.
• 30:39
  I could never ever wear them.
• 30:43
  How much money are people
• 30:44
  making on the deal with rogue?
• 30:46
  I don't know about the money,
• 30:48
  but they're always like
• 30:49
  flown in for events.
• 30:51
  And like,
• 30:52
  if you look at Ariel's garage and
• 30:54
  the stuff that they made for them,
• 30:57
  for their new, not the garage,
• 30:59
  the new gym that they're
• 31:00
  building in the backyard.
• 31:02
  Like Lowen cut out of the
• 31:05
  frames so that they,
• 31:07
  it says Lowen on the gym
• 31:09
  rig and the equipment that they get.
• 31:12
  I know they get a pretty big
• 31:13
  allotment of equipment every year.
• 31:25
  State Farm Insurance ones
• 31:27
  are trying to be the new
• 31:28
  one to be in now.
• 31:29
  There you go.
• 31:30
  Rogers.
• 31:31
  Oh, sorry.
• 31:38
  Yeah, there's no Nike athletes today,
• 31:41
  unless it's European.
• 31:43
  And I think that's, like, other than Fi,
• 31:45
  I think all of the Reebok
• 31:47
  athletes are European as well.
• 31:57
  The new tier runners had great reviews.
• 32:00
  They may, they just don't, on my foot,
• 32:02
  they don't feel good.
• 32:12
  um uh tdc olive oil yeah I
• 32:30
  don't think I don't think
• 32:30
  that's got a lot of money
• 32:31
  making it's more of a
• 32:34
  boutique sponsor than it is
• 32:36
  a um one of the big big names
• 32:42
  Yeah,
• 32:43
  I remember Rogan again faster back in
• 32:45
  the day.
• 32:46
  Yeah, again faster, lost that quickly.
• 33:06
  Ask someone you know outside
• 33:08
  the CrossFit sphere if they
• 33:09
  had heard of TEAR and one
• 33:10
  percent chance they've heard of it.
• 33:13
  they've actually been
• 33:14
  sponsoring like reality tv
• 33:16
  shows too I don't know if
• 33:17
  you guys have noticed this
• 33:19
  they supplied the clothes
• 33:21
  for the challenge for a
• 33:22
  while and they supplied the
• 33:24
  clothes and the shoes for
• 33:25
  big brother for a minute um
• 33:28
  so they are like outside
• 33:29
  the crossfit space I heard
• 33:31
  of them back when I was a
• 33:32
  swimmer they were the up-and-comers
• 33:35
  back in when there was
• 33:37
  Speedo Arena and then Tear
• 33:40
  tried to jump in and take
• 33:41
  market share in the
• 33:43
  swimming space when I was a
• 33:45
  swimmer way back in the day.
• 33:47
  But they were really new to
• 33:49
  the market back then.
• 34:04
  I would imagine TNLSKD was a good deal.
• 34:08
  LSKD has money.
• 34:10
  I was really shocked that
• 34:13
  Anika finally makes the
• 34:14
  games and LSKD and her are
• 34:16
  now separating and she's
• 34:17
  now going with Jim Reapers.
• 34:25
  Jim Reapers now has Austin
• 34:28
  and her for sure.
• 34:31
  But I don't think they have
• 34:33
  the money like LSKD does.
• 34:46
  Viore could kill it if they
• 34:47
  got into CrossFit.
• 34:48
  They tried.
• 34:50
  They used to sponsor Talking
• 34:53
  Elite Fitness.
• 34:55
  And those guys charge a lot
• 34:57
  of money to be a sponsor.
• 34:59
  So they tried to make stuff to do that.
• 35:02
  Livvy Dunn has made them a ton of money.
• 35:11
  So.
• 35:20
  Joseph Ramirez,
• 35:21
  I'd be happy with a monthly
• 35:22
  t-shirt from Vindicate, but no,
• 35:24
  I'm no elite athlete.
• 35:25
  Yeah.
• 35:27
  Maybe,
• 35:27
  maybe Travis can start doing a
• 35:29
  monthly subscription.
• 35:31
  One, one mystery shirt a month.
• 35:46
  Oh, wow.
• 35:46
  You guys have loaded this up.
• 35:51
  Uh, Anika and T are very different.
• 35:52
  You are, you are correct.
• 35:55
  Jim Reapers also has Medeiros.
• 35:58
  They're bigger with powerlifting.
• 36:01
  I thought that Medeiros...
• 36:02
  Did Medeiros go Jim Reapers?
• 36:03
  I thought that he went Tear just recently.
• 36:06
  I could be wrong.
• 36:18
  Oh, that's right.
• 36:20
  Medeiros went with Rad.
• 36:23
  That's right.
• 36:25
  I was wrong all right guys I
• 36:34
  again after what's happened
• 36:36
  in the last few weeks let's
• 36:40
  just love one another let's
• 36:42
  go out there and understand
• 36:45
  listen and love one another be kind
• 36:50
  The world needs to be a
• 36:52
  little more forgiving.
• 36:54
  Just because people think
• 36:55
  differently than you
• 36:56
  doesn't mean that you can't
• 37:00
  talk and understand their
• 37:01
  perspective and see things
• 37:03
  through their lens.
• 37:06
  So with that, I got to get to work.
• 37:09
  You guys, you get back to work too.
• 37:11
  And I'll see everybody tomorrow.
• 37:12
  I got Jason Grubb on the show tomorrow.
• 37:15
  So we're going to have lunch
• 37:16
  with Grubb tomorrow, Friday.
• 37:19
  And with that, see you then.
• 37:22
  Bye, guys.
