Lunch with the Clydesdale - A Little Dose of Reality Could be Good. · Clydesdale Media Podcast

• 0:03
  You know what CrossFit needs?
• 0:05
  A good dose of reality.
• 0:08
  Reality TV, that is.
• 0:10
  Let's talk about it next.
• 0:22
  I love the chase and the hunt,
• 0:24
  and I set the pace when I'm running.
• 0:25
  I always take what I want,
• 0:27
  and I always give it one hundred.
• 0:28
  Don't need a bank, no I'm funded.
• 0:30
  Play the game like it's nothing.
• 0:31
  I'm always thankful for something.
• 0:33
  Don't take for granted, stay humble.
• 0:34
  Now wake up!
• 0:36
  It's time to look at the enemy.
• 0:38
  Look in the mirror if he is no
• 0:40
  friend to me.
• 0:41
  It's not working out,
• 0:42
  maybe it's the chemistry.
• 0:44
  It's time to break up,
• 0:45
  so why come back?
• 0:48
  it's lunchtime what's going on everybody
• 0:51
  lunch with the gladsdale good to see
• 0:53
  everybody it is monday monday of a short
• 0:57
  week if you work in the traditional
• 1:00
  business work week sense um yeah
• 1:04
  thanksgiving week i'm off half a day
• 1:08
  wednesday through the weekend it's going
• 1:11
  to be glorious glorious um
• 1:15
  I want to talk about our sponsor, Thirdsy.
• 1:18
  I want to reiterate that we have been
• 1:20
  using Thirdsy for a couple months before
• 1:22
  we ever signed with them and tried it
• 1:26
  out.
• 1:27
  And if you guys did not see what
• 1:28
  Jamie posted last night,
• 1:30
  I want to share that real quick.
• 1:33
  This is from her stories,
• 1:36
  and I'll blow this up so you can
• 1:38
  kind of see.
• 1:39
  You see the graph in her...
• 1:42
  sleep before third Z and her sleep after
• 1:46
  third Z and the numbers that she has
• 1:49
  seen.
• 1:50
  Her average sleep metric score has gone
• 1:52
  from seventy six to eighty eight.
• 1:56
  Her average overnight heart rate has gone
• 1:58
  from fifty five to forty six.
• 2:00
  Her average resting heart rate has gone
• 2:02
  from forty seven to forty one.
• 2:05
  And her average body battery change has
• 2:08
  gone from fifty three to sixty six.
• 2:13
  That is amazing.
• 2:15
  Not to mention this.
• 2:19
  Salty caramel chocolate is an amazing,
• 2:22
  amazing flavor.
• 2:23
  You can use code Jazzy to check it
• 2:27
  out.
• 2:27
  Get fifteen percent off or go to third
• 2:31
  Z dot com backslash Jazzy.
• 2:35
  And get it that way.
• 2:37
  But they have strawberry lemonade.
• 2:38
  They have salty caramel chocolate.
• 2:41
  I'm telling you, man,
• 2:41
  this stuff has changed my life.
• 2:44
  And when we get into the next thing,
• 2:45
  you'll kind of see how that happened.
• 2:49
  But Jamie is seeing results.
• 2:51
  I am seeing,
• 2:52
  I'm sleeping so much better than I did
• 2:54
  before.
• 2:55
  And yeah, as Corey said, use code Jazzy.
• 3:01
  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 3:15
  to find out where we're going with this
• 3:17
  whole sinus thing.
• 3:19
  And why Thirdsy is so important to me
• 3:22
  is this has been a mess in my
• 3:25
  life for four years.
• 3:27
  These sinus issues.
• 3:28
  Finally,
• 3:30
  I feel like I'm with a doctor who
• 3:31
  cares, who is taking the time.
• 3:34
  And I'm going to show you...
• 3:37
  I'm going to show you...
• 3:42
  the CT scan of my sinuses.
• 3:46
  So I don't know if you can see
• 3:49
  all that there.
• 3:52
  But there's a black arrow.
• 3:55
  That black arrow is pointing to a dark
• 3:58
  black spot in my sinus.
• 4:02
  And you think what is that black spot?
• 4:05
  The black spot is air.
• 4:09
  All the gray around it is infection.
• 4:14
  So if you look at the nose,
• 4:17
  I have one nostril that is getting some
• 4:19
  air.
• 4:20
  I have another one that's getting very
• 4:22
  little air.
• 4:23
  And my one sinus,
• 4:26
  it has just a little bit of air.
• 4:29
  The rest of that gray is infection.
• 4:34
  And that's why I've been suffering for so
• 4:35
  long.
• 4:37
  So,
• 4:40
  It's been, it has been a horrid,
• 4:42
  horrid four years.
• 4:44
  Um,
• 4:44
  and so what the next steps are is
• 4:47
  I'm going to have surgery on January,
• 4:50
  to clean all of that out.
• 4:56
  Um,
• 4:58
  And there are three different levels of
• 5:01
  the sinus.
• 5:02
  One that's really close to my brain.
• 5:05
  They're going to go in with a balloon,
• 5:07
  blow that up and try to pull that
• 5:08
  out that way.
• 5:09
  Then there's some near my eyes.
• 5:12
  And that's where they hook a tool up
• 5:14
  to my CAT scan so that they can
• 5:16
  be guided through cleaning that up.
• 5:19
  And then there's the lower cheek sinus
• 5:22
  that she can kind of go crazy in
• 5:24
  there and clear all that out.
• 5:26
  The other thing is that I have a
• 5:27
  bone spur or a spur on my septum.
• 5:31
  They're going to remove that.
• 5:33
  And so, yeah.
• 5:36
  So January twenty ninth,
• 5:37
  getting all of that cleaned up,
• 5:39
  all of that cleared out and hopefully be
• 5:42
  able to breathe and maybe even be able
• 5:44
  to smell again.
• 5:47
  Wouldn't that be awesome?
• 5:50
  So in the meantime,
• 5:52
  they are going to try to get me
• 5:59
  an antibiotic wash to get me through the
• 6:01
  holidays with a little bit more comfort.
• 6:06
  And...
• 6:09
  I just hope that, yeah, I can,
• 6:11
  that'll help me get through.
• 6:13
  It's been just hell working out these past
• 6:17
  few months with all of that stuff up
• 6:20
  in there, trying to breathe,
• 6:22
  trying not to hack up along.
• 6:27
  So super stoked.
• 6:30
  Like Corey said,
• 6:31
  sounds like instant relief and,
• 6:33
  It's an outpatient surgery.
• 6:34
  It'll be done on a Thursday.
• 6:37
  They're going to pack it up.
• 6:38
  They're going to stitch some tubes in to
• 6:40
  allow it to drain.
• 6:42
  And then on Monday,
• 6:47
  they're going to pull all the packing out,
• 6:49
  and then I'll go from there.
• 6:50
  So hopefully we see some significant
• 6:54
  difference after that.
• 6:58
  And I can't wait to have that done.
• 7:01
  Breathing while working out is an
• 7:02
  underrated...
• 7:05
  It, it, it is an underrated thing.
• 7:11
  Uh, Shanna curious,
• 7:12
  have they started you on any steroid nasal
• 7:14
  spray?
• 7:14
  Yes.
• 7:17
  Yeah.
• 7:17
  I, um,
• 7:18
  I've been using that for a couple months
• 7:20
  now, but it is so bad.
• 7:22
  Like it's not even,
• 7:26
  it helps me short term I would say,
• 7:28
  but then,
• 7:31
  then it just kind of goes away.
• 7:34
  but yeah these last two weeks have been
• 7:37
  really rough uh so i don't know i've
• 7:45
  had to opt out of doing some things
• 7:48
  these last couple weeks it's just been
• 7:50
  pure misery just trying to get through day
• 7:52
  to day um
• 7:56
  So yeah, hoping to get that release,
• 7:59
  get that relief, get back to normal,
• 8:03
  all those things.
• 8:06
  Yeah, I am on the juice.
• 8:08
  Nasal juice, lung juice, all of that.
• 8:18
  Frida asks,
• 8:18
  will they give you something to prevent
• 8:20
  the inflammation from coming back,
• 8:22
  or will it just be checkups?
• 8:23
  Well...
• 8:25
  There's scar tissue, there is infection,
• 8:28
  there is liquid in there that they have
• 8:31
  to all get out.
• 8:33
  And then I'm sure that it'll be some
• 8:35
  series of antibiotics.
• 8:37
  There will be frequent checkups
• 8:38
  afterwards.
• 8:42
  But right now we're talking pre-op,
• 8:45
  not post-op.
• 8:46
  So I don't really know what the post-op
• 8:48
  plan is quite yet.
• 8:49
  Just really focused on the pre-op process
• 8:53
  right now.
• 8:58
  Hope that works and you get back to
• 9:00
  somewhat normal.
• 9:03
  Yeah, me too.
• 9:04
  Me too.
• 9:06
  I'm really excited to just be able to
• 9:08
  breathe again.
• 9:10
  CrossFit says I'm banned.
• 9:12
  I am, you know,
• 9:13
  and Jason Hopper and Jeff Adler called and
• 9:17
  thanked me for admitting so that they
• 9:20
  don't have to take me on next season.
• 9:24
  So there it is.
• 9:29
  Yeah,
• 9:29
  there's a sigh of relief all over the
• 9:30
  elite division that I have been banned
• 9:33
  from next season.
• 9:38
  So there is that.
• 9:42
  Just wanted to update you.
• 9:42
  And I still have a voice box CT
• 9:46
  tomorrow.
• 9:47
  But my ear, nose,
• 9:48
  and throat thinks that the problem in my
• 9:51
  voice box is the drainage from these
• 9:52
  sinuses as bad as they are.
• 9:55
  So probably just see that it's okay.
• 9:59
  Just have to get these sinuses taken care
• 10:01
  of.
• 10:02
  But we'll find out more tomorrow for sure.
• 10:07
  So, yeah.
• 10:08
  It is November twenty-fourth.
• 10:12
  And the Chicago Bears are still,
• 10:15
  still in first place.
• 10:18
  That just baffles my mind.
• 10:20
  No way in a million years did I
• 10:22
  think going into this season the Bears
• 10:24
  would be vying for a playoff spot.
• 10:26
  I just wanted to see improvement at the
• 10:28
  quarterback position.
• 10:29
  I wanted to see improvement in the way
• 10:30
  the team was run.
• 10:31
  I've gotten to see all that and this
• 10:33
  bonus of, holy cow,
• 10:35
  they're eight and three.
• 10:37
  They're leading the NFC North and they're
• 10:39
  in the playoff hunt.
• 10:40
  That is amazing.
• 10:44
  I can't even describe it.
• 10:49
  Not even just in the hunt.
• 10:50
  I know CrossFit.
• 10:51
  It's crazy.
• 10:52
  It's like they are legit in.
• 10:55
  I saw a stat yesterday on ESPN that
• 10:57
  if they won yesterday's game,
• 10:59
  they would have a seventy seven percent
• 11:01
  chance of making the playoffs.
• 11:03
  That is amazing.
• 11:11
  Kipping it real,
• 11:12
  I'm here to reject my Steelers and defect
• 11:15
  to my birthright, the Bears.
• 11:17
  There you go.
• 11:20
  We take all comers onto the bandwagon.
• 11:27
  Trish,
• 11:28
  thanks for beating the Steelers for us.
• 11:30
  Sincerely, a Ravens fan.
• 11:32
  There you go.
• 11:38
  The beauty of this CrossFit is that it's
• 11:40
  not college football.
• 11:42
  It is not up for debate.
• 11:44
  Your win-loss record gets you in,
• 11:46
  and that is it.
• 11:51
  There you go.
• 11:54
  So super stoked about that.
• 11:57
  The last thing that I wanted to talk
• 11:59
  about is that I really think,
• 12:03
  and we talked about this a little bit
• 12:04
  last night, I really think that...
• 12:08
  CrossFit needs a reality show.
• 12:13
  They need a big pot at the end
• 12:15
  reality show.
• 12:16
  And I think the WFP is the perfect
• 12:19
  place to do it.
• 12:22
  Do a two week, one tour stop event.
• 12:27
  that has eliminations with hour-long
• 12:29
  episodes where you compete in CrossFit
• 12:32
  events and there's an elimination every
• 12:36
  episode until you get to the end with
• 12:39
  a big million-dollar pot at the end.
• 12:43
  And it doesn't have to be restricted to
• 12:48
  just CrossFitters.
• 12:50
  Let's show what CrossFitters can do
• 12:52
  against everybody else in the world.
• 12:55
  Open it up.
• 12:56
  We're going to do this fitness
• 12:58
  competition.
• 12:59
  Anybody can come,
• 13:01
  whether you're a football player,
• 13:02
  whether you're a track athlete,
• 13:03
  whether you do swimming, whatever it is.
• 13:07
  And then you go up against these
• 13:11
  CrossFitters and is CrossFit truly the
• 13:16
  expression of the fittest people on earth?
• 13:24
  And you can do tours all around the
• 13:26
  world and use their topography to have
• 13:29
  events.
• 13:31
  Like you go to the Alps and you
• 13:33
  do a rock through the mountains,
• 13:36
  things like that.
• 13:37
  And because you watch these reality shows
• 13:42
  that are on like American Ninja Warrior,
• 13:46
  there are people standing in line for days
• 13:49
  trying to get on that show.
• 13:51
  and nobody gets paid when they compete on
• 13:54
  that show except the winner that's it and
• 13:59
  look at the attendance they get for that
• 14:03
  make it a two-week event huge pot i'm
• 14:06
  saying a million maybe it's five hundred
• 14:10
  thousand and you have like two hundred
• 14:12
  thousand for second place so the final two
• 14:15
  win and it's all out
• 14:21
  Winner takes,
• 14:22
  or you make it winner takes all.
• 14:23
  I don't even care.
• 14:24
  But it is this elimination style event
• 14:27
  that as you go along,
• 14:29
  people get booted because they lost that
• 14:32
  event and you keep moving on and moving
• 14:34
  on.
• 14:40
  CrossFat says they also have those corn
• 14:42
  ball vignettes to fill dead air on
• 14:45
  American Ninja Warrior.
• 14:47
  I would argue that that's why people
• 14:49
  watch.
• 14:51
  Those cornball vignettes are what make the
• 14:54
  audience care whether this person succeeds
• 14:58
  in accomplishing getting through that
• 15:00
  obstacle.
• 15:02
  Because their wife has MS or because their
• 15:06
  daughter was born with leukemia and
• 15:08
  they're fighting through it.
• 15:10
  Whatever that story is makes people care
• 15:13
  about them succeeding in that moment.
• 15:16
  And you could do the same thing with
• 15:18
  this.
• 15:19
  Everybody has a backstory.
• 15:21
  Talk about the backstories that make
• 15:23
  people care.
• 15:29
  I agree.
• 15:30
  We waste so much time in CrossFit with
• 15:31
  coming up heat to women for fourteen
• 15:35
  minutes.
• 15:36
  So much time.
• 15:38
  So much time.
• 15:43
  Q Tom Rinaldi sob story.
• 15:47
  My wife and I were watching NFL pregame
• 15:49
  yesterday,
• 15:51
  and Jeremy Schaap did a thing on Bernie
• 15:53
  Kosar, the former Browns quarterback,
• 15:56
  getting a kidney transplant or liver
• 15:58
  transplant.
• 16:00
  We were sobbing.
• 16:01
  We were sobbing on that story.
• 16:04
  And then it makes you care about Bernie
• 16:05
  Kosar.
• 16:06
  I have never liked the Browns.
• 16:08
  I have never liked Bernie Kosar.
• 16:10
  But because of this story,
• 16:12
  now I care that he got this liver
• 16:14
  and he gets a second chance at life.
• 16:16
  Like, if those are done right,
• 16:20
  they make you care about that person and
• 16:22
  make you root for that person in that
• 16:24
  moment.
• 16:30
  And that's what this would allow.
• 16:32
  The key is, though,
• 16:33
  if you're going to do this,
• 16:34
  it has to be an airtight NDA.
• 16:38
  Like if you release information,
• 16:40
  you are fined.
• 16:41
  You are sued.
• 16:42
  You're not eligible for prize money
• 16:45
  because these things have to be
• 16:47
  post-production.
• 16:48
  You have to know what the storylines are
• 16:50
  going to be so you can create the
• 16:52
  vignettes to amp up the story as you
• 16:54
  go through the season or this two-week
• 16:57
  event, whatever it is.
• 17:04
  You know it's going to be brutal and
• 17:06
  sad, but you watch the whole way through.
• 17:07
  Exactly.
• 17:09
  Game day does one every week.
• 17:11
  NFL Sunday countdown does one every week.
• 17:14
  Every one of them makes you cry,
• 17:16
  but it makes you care about the people
• 17:18
  involved in the story.
• 17:24
  But I don't think CrossFit should put
• 17:26
  their...
• 17:27
  they should be the ones backing this
• 17:29
  reality show.
• 17:30
  Let somebody else do it.
• 17:33
  Partner,
• 17:34
  let them use the CrossFit name throughout
• 17:36
  the broadcast.
• 17:39
  Let them talk about the methodology and
• 17:41
  why these are the events that have been
• 17:42
  picked,
• 17:44
  why there's a definition of fitness,
• 17:46
  why nobody else has come up with the
• 17:48
  definition of fitness.
• 17:49
  Do all those things,
• 17:51
  but have somebody else run it, like WFP.
• 17:55
  They have these event organizers.
• 17:57
  They can gather the stuff together.
• 18:00
  They can put together the rosters,
• 18:02
  and they can go through this process.
• 18:04
  But make it an open call so you
• 18:06
  can get basketball players and football
• 18:08
  players and soccer players,
• 18:09
  and you can see who truly is the
• 18:12
  fittest of these athletes.
• 18:19
  I think it gets eyeballs on what they
• 18:21
  do.
• 18:22
  I think it gets eyeballs on the sport.
• 18:25
  And then in the following season,
• 18:28
  when the CrossFit game season happens,
• 18:30
  people understand more about why this
• 18:34
  tests fitness.
• 18:35
  And then when you're watching the CrossFit
• 18:36
  game season, it makes more sense.
• 18:39
  And that's how you can kind of grow
• 18:41
  the sport.
• 18:44
  And maybe, just maybe,
• 18:46
  when people watch these reality shows and
• 18:48
  they see that you can go to a
• 18:50
  local affiliate and learn how to do this
• 18:52
  fitness stuff so you can be awesome,
• 18:55
  maybe that translates to that as well.
• 19:04
  I think Titan Games couldn't call athletes
• 19:05
  CrossFitters.
• 19:07
  I know they could not.
• 19:08
  I know that was, I've interviewed Margo,
• 19:11
  interviewed Matt Chan after he won.
• 19:16
  They could not.
• 19:17
  They could not use the term CrossFit.
• 19:19
  But I think that's where CrossFit,
• 19:20
  with all of their more recent
• 19:23
  partnerships,
• 19:24
  allow them to use the name CrossFit.
• 19:27
  But give them an education on,
• 19:30
  this is why we test it this way.
• 19:33
  This is where it came up from.
• 19:40
  World Fitness Sport Contender.
• 19:43
  There you go.
• 19:50
  Or call it the WFP Contender Series.
• 19:54
  Isn't that what UFC has?
• 19:56
  Where they develop these people that are
• 19:58
  up-and-comers and they're eventually going
• 20:00
  to go into the UFC as one of
• 20:04
  their big draws?
• 20:07
  Something like that.
• 20:13
  I like that too.
• 20:14
  World Fitness Sports Contender.
• 20:16
  Sport Contender.
• 20:19
  Doesn't make a good acronym, but yeah,
• 20:25
  I like the name.
• 20:32
  And you could do vignettes on like where
• 20:34
  the methodology came from,
• 20:37
  all those kinds of things in a good
• 20:39
  partnership.
• 20:40
  I just,
• 20:41
  I don't know where we are with all
• 20:42
  that, but man,
• 20:46
  I've heard people say like drive to
• 20:49
  survive and full swing,
• 20:55
  like those kinds of documentary shows are
• 20:57
  what CrossFit needs to get into.
• 20:59
  But the more and the more I think
• 21:00
  about it, I like the reality type show.
• 21:05
  And if you travel from location to
• 21:06
  location and it's a two week thing and
• 21:08
  you're all together,
• 21:10
  film that off the field stuff.
• 21:12
  Because I think,
• 21:14
  I think all of that is what makes
• 21:18
  people bring eyes to it.
• 21:20
  The drama, the crazy thing, right?
• 21:28
  cross fat we are so much alike there
• 21:31
  was a phenomenal boxing reality show
• 21:32
  called the contender with sugar ray
• 21:34
  leonard i remember it it was you're right
• 21:36
  stallone hosted it sugar ray leonard was
• 21:39
  like a big mentor um and it was
• 21:42
  getting the big contenders in the boxing
• 21:44
  world and i thought it was a great
• 21:46
  show jeremy that's from last night and
• 21:55
  it's the stuffing's in the butt
• 21:57
  stuff it in the butt.
• 21:58
  That's,
• 21:58
  that's what she liked or he liked
• 22:02
  whatever.
• 22:07
  So yeah, I,
• 22:08
  I really think like it could,
• 22:10
  it could be something.
• 22:11
  And if you made it like a big
• 22:13
  cash prize at the end,
• 22:14
  people are going to sign up.
• 22:17
  People are going to do it for the
• 22:18
  exposure.
• 22:21
  If Netflix is paying for this Asian one
• 22:24
  hundred,
• 22:25
  why wouldn't they do something similar to
• 22:29
  that with American celebrity stars,
• 22:31
  sports stars, things like that?
• 22:44
  I think it could work.
• 22:46
  And I think there's enough streaming
• 22:47
  services you can get picked up by one
• 22:49
  of them.
• 22:53
  I mean,
• 22:53
  Netflix is finding that event TV is doing
• 22:58
  better than scripted TV right now.
• 23:01
  That's why they're trying to get into the
• 23:03
  NFL.
• 23:03
  That's why they're trying to get into
• 23:05
  boxing.
• 23:06
  That's why they're trying to get into all
• 23:09
  the other stuff because event TV is what
• 23:12
  is making the world go round on the
• 23:14
  streaming services.
• 23:22
  It would probably be a healthier example
• 23:23
  than the biggest loser was.
• 23:25
  Exactly.
• 23:27
  Show the tip of the spear.
• 23:34
  Live appointment television is the only
• 23:35
  thing these days, and sport is that.
• 23:37
  Exactly.
• 23:39
  Exactly.
• 23:44
  But again,
• 23:45
  if you're going to film it in a
• 23:47
  two-week period,
• 23:47
  because where this comes from is we have
• 23:50
  to give an off-season to these athletes.
• 23:53
  We're learning that they just cannot go
• 23:55
  year-round.
• 23:57
  With all the withdrawals for Copenhagen
• 24:00
  and the WFP, they need time off.
• 24:04
  They need time off to let their bodies
• 24:06
  rest.
• 24:07
  They need times to go through cycles of
• 24:10
  different lifting, cycles of different...
• 24:15
  They need to work on those things.
• 24:17
  And when you're competing so often
• 24:19
  throughout the season,
• 24:21
  it's not giving you any time to do
• 24:22
  that.
• 24:29
  Frida says,
• 24:30
  we have a show like that here with
• 24:32
  retired top athletes competing in various
• 24:34
  ways.
• 24:36
  I think that...
• 24:38
  that's good.
• 24:39
  I think this is,
• 24:40
  you make the events CrossFit style events
• 24:45
  very specific and you have athletes
• 24:49
  compete in it.
• 24:50
  And I think it would be really good.
• 24:56
  Corey Leonard says,
• 24:57
  be super easy to be better than the
• 24:58
  biggest loser.
• 24:59
  Listen, I was the biggest loser addict.
• 25:02
  We can say hindsight is twenty twenty.
• 25:05
  We can say what we will about it.
• 25:06
  The documentary was crazy, but.
• 25:11
  But I was addicted.
• 25:14
  I mean,
• 25:14
  I was tuned in every week for biggest
• 25:16
  loser.
• 25:20
  A purse like this would also allow
• 25:21
  athletes to become breakthrough stars.
• 25:23
  Suddenly someone from it becomes the Miz.
• 25:25
  Yeah.
• 25:29
  The Miz goes from real world to real
• 25:31
  world,
• 25:32
  real world road rules challenge to the
• 25:34
  challenge to WWE superstar.
• 25:44
  All through the reality TV world and then
• 25:47
  becomes a WWE superstar.
• 25:56
  biggest loser in the eyes of the early
• 25:58
  two thousands, it was crack.
• 26:01
  A lot of reality shows were crack when
• 26:05
  it first came out,
• 26:06
  came out and people thought it truly was
• 26:08
  reality.
• 26:11
  We were all tuned in.
• 26:14
  I mean,
• 26:14
  I'm old enough to remember when real world
• 26:16
  one came out and how different it was
• 26:19
  and how crazy it was.
• 26:21
  And I was tuned in every week on
• 26:23
  MTV.
• 26:28
  That was pretty much the end of the
• 26:29
  music videos on MTV when they started
• 26:31
  coming out with the real world and the
• 26:32
  road rules and all of that.
• 26:34
  But I remember it and it was like
• 26:39
  crack.
• 26:40
  Me and all of my friends were watching
• 26:42
  real world back then.
• 26:52
  I really think this is the best way
• 26:53
  to promote music.
• 26:55
  what CrossFit is and get eyes on,
• 26:58
  but you've got to have the drama.
• 27:00
  You've got to have the thing that sucks
• 27:01
  people in that aren't CrossFit sycophants.
• 27:09
  You have to have that drama to bring
• 27:12
  in others to see it, to know it,
• 27:15
  to grow it.
• 27:25
  They got Rulon Gardner on The Biggest
• 27:26
  Loser.
• 27:27
  They did.
• 27:30
  They also got Holly Mangold,
• 27:34
  whose brother Nick just passed away,
• 27:36
  former New York Jet.
• 27:38
  Holly Mangold was on there.
• 27:40
  Um, I, she actually is,
• 27:41
  they're both from here in Columbus area.
• 27:45
  I got to meet Holly and I,
• 27:46
  and she answered all the questions I had
• 27:48
  about biggest loser behind the scenes.
• 27:50
  And she really put a big old pin
• 27:53
  in my balloon, um,
• 27:55
  about what it's really like.
• 27:58
  Um,
• 28:00
  cause it was nothing what they show on
• 28:02
  TV.
• 28:04
  And that was really like my first foray
• 28:06
  into figuring out that this reality stuff
• 28:09
  is not real.
• 28:15
  So there.
• 28:21
  Yeah, he,
• 28:23
  she said like the Bob and Jillian,
• 28:26
  you'd only saw them like once a week
• 28:28
  for an hour.
• 28:29
  to film the footage um they weren't there
• 28:33
  all week training them there were other
• 28:35
  training trainers who weren't celebrities
• 28:37
  that trained them most of the time and
• 28:40
  the show depicted that her and bob had
• 28:43
  this really good relationship when she
• 28:46
  said like she actually had a better
• 28:47
  relationship with jillian than she did
• 28:49
  with bob um and she barely saw bob
• 28:53
  um so yeah
• 29:02
  Jeremy says,
• 29:02
  my friend was dating Melinda from the real
• 29:04
  world, Austin.
• 29:06
  She broke up with him to go on
• 29:07
  that show.
• 29:08
  Wow.
• 29:17
  CrossFit couldn't get enough of Bob until
• 29:19
  he had his heart attack.
• 29:23
  Yeah, my biggest,
• 29:25
  Bob became this superstar and at the,
• 29:28
  which one was it?
• 29:30
  Was it twenty fourteen open with the box
• 29:34
  jumps or box step ups and the increasing
• 29:37
  deadlift?
• 29:41
  That was my best ever open workout.
• 29:43
  I think it was twenty fourteen.
• 29:46
  I'm terrible with the open numbers.
• 29:50
  But I. I either.
• 29:55
  I almost beat Bob and that like made
• 29:58
  my day.
• 30:00
  it was like one rep one rep difference
• 30:03
  i was either one rep ahead or one
• 30:05
  rip behind i can't remember it's been ten
• 30:07
  years uh fourteen point three r.i.p
• 30:12
  achilles yeah fourteen three um my
• 30:17
  deadlift has always sucked i was i'm a
• 30:19
  terrible deadlifter because my back is
• 30:21
  just and for some reason that day i
• 30:26
  was just crushing the deadlift
• 30:28
  and uh it was my best open finish
• 30:31
  ever like when i finished the entire gym
• 30:35
  like jumped on me like i was a
• 30:36
  pitcher at the world series it was like
• 30:39
  the coolest experience of my crossfit
• 30:41
  career well one of them i've had a
• 30:44
  lot of cool ones but that was like
• 30:46
  that was my best finish ever of an
• 30:49
  open workout and when the whole gym is
• 30:51
  jumping on top of you it is it's
• 30:53
  a glorious feeling and
• 30:58
  I wish there was a way we could
• 30:59
  capture that magic on video where people
• 31:03
  understood what it was like.
• 31:09
  But I, I, you know, I don't,
• 31:12
  I don't know how, I don't know how,
• 31:22
  but anyway, um,
• 31:27
  think that's going to be it for today
• 31:30
  i'm going to do a short show i
• 31:31
  missed most of the morning because of the
• 31:34
  doctor's appointment and the sinuses um
• 31:38
  and so i probably should get back to
• 31:39
  work a little bit today jeremy says
• 31:44
  affiliate contest yeah i maybe
• 31:52
  maybe maybe like the thing that the end
• 31:54
  of Chase's new podcast maybe like during
• 31:57
  the open like you you send in you
• 32:00
  know like SportsCenter does top ten plays
• 32:04
  maybe like top ten reactions from the open
• 32:07
  and do like a top ten list uh
• 32:09
  so yeah I don't know maybe
• 32:17
  That is true.
• 32:18
  The doctor has confirmed that Scott does
• 32:20
  have ears, a nose, and a throat.
• 32:23
  Yeah.
• 32:23
  The nose just doesn't work.
• 32:26
  And because the nose doesn't work,
• 32:27
  the throat is full of schmutz.
• 32:32
  But yeah, I have them.
• 32:38
  And Negative Corey says people would stage
• 32:41
  reactions.
• 32:41
  They probably would.
• 32:43
  But I think we know what's authentic and
• 32:46
  what's made to be staged.
• 32:52
  You've seen people get their first muscle
• 32:53
  up and the way they act.
• 32:56
  You can tell what's genuine and what's
• 32:58
  faked.
• 33:00
  I think.
• 33:01
  I think you can.
• 33:04
  Maybe I'm being naive.
• 33:11
  I mean,
• 33:12
  if you've been in a gym long enough,
• 33:15
  and you've been doing CrossFit long
• 33:16
  enough,
• 33:17
  you know when it's an authentic reaction.
• 33:20
  You've seen enough of them.
• 33:21
  Because it happens all the time.
• 33:31
  People also thought the biggest loser was
• 33:32
  real.
• 33:33
  Well, maybe, but...
• 33:35
  but that's different.
• 33:36
  The,
• 33:37
  the reaction to like getting your first
• 33:40
  muscle up or your first double under or
• 33:42
  your first box jump.
• 33:43
  Like we've seen that and it's,
• 33:46
  that stuff can't be faked.
• 33:49
  I hope it can't be faked.
• 33:51
  I mean,
• 33:51
  we're in this world of like everything
• 33:53
  being AI and everything being pseudo real.
• 33:57
  Like I hope, I mean,
• 34:01
  I want to believe that that is the
• 34:02
  one thing we cannot fake.
• 34:05
  is first muscle up first rope climb first
• 34:10
  double under whatever it is deadlift pr
• 34:16
  clean jerk pr all that stuff jeremy asks
• 34:27
  is it cold louisiana corey you grump thank
• 34:30
  you
• 34:33
  Freda, I love seeing those first.
• 34:34
  I think we all do.
• 34:51
  Alligators are ornery because they got all
• 34:53
  those teeth and no way to brush them.
• 34:57
  I think that speaks for all of us.
• 35:02
  Because Corey's a cynic when it comes to
• 35:04
  that stuff.
• 35:04
  I know how I flipped out when I
• 35:06
  got my first ring muscle up.
• 35:08
  I happened to video it.
• 35:09
  Well, you say you did,
• 35:11
  or did you just fake it?
• 35:13
  Maybe it was really your fourth ring
• 35:15
  muscle up.
• 35:16
  How do we know?
• 35:18
  I can turn the tables.
• 35:23
  We just got to take your word for
• 35:24
  it.
• 35:28
  With that,
• 35:28
  I'm going to head back to work.
• 35:36
  I also know that as soon as you
• 35:37
  attach it to a prize being featured on
• 35:39
  a CrossFit reel, they will make shit up,
• 35:44
  but hopefully we can detect that.
• 35:48
  All right, guys, I'm heading back to work.
• 35:50
  You know, go ahead.
• 35:51
  You get back to work too.
• 35:52
  We'll see everybody.
• 35:53
  I probably won't be here tomorrow.
• 35:57
  but I'll be back Wednesday with Micah
• 35:59
  Shoemaker and talking about the magic city
• 36:03
  games and how to qualify for the masters
• 36:07
  or H group CrossFit games.
• 36:09
  We're going to talk about that Wednesday
• 36:10
  with him.
• 36:10
  Thank you everybody for being here.
• 36:12
  Love you all.
• 36:13
  See you all next time on lunch with
• 36:15
  the Clydesdale.
• 36:17
  Bye guys.
