Reacting to TYR WZA Moving to March (and teams recap) · The Spin Podcast

  In a perfect world, we would have one week of perhaps high
• 0:04
  rocks, another week would be CrossFit.
• 0:08
  It's very similar to the water palooza that happens in across
• 0:13
  the the Bay. And you know, that could really
• 0:18
  rebrand our our month of March for Miami Beach.
• 0:23
  With High Rocks, they mentioned they would need about the same
• 0:27
  amount of funding that we gave them in 2023, which is about
• 0:29
  600,000. With the CrossFit loud and Live,
• 0:33
  they mentioned you know as close as possible to 800.
• 0:36
  I and I defer also through our CFO, but we have our large scale
• 0:40
  event fund that's at six O 6 that that's already in the
• 0:43
  recurring budget that we can start and use that for 2025 and
• 0:48
  26. Whatapalooza.
• 0:58
  Tiruatapalooza, March 2026. John Tell.
• 1:04
  Me how my Noosa girls did all. Right guys, this.
• 1:08
  Is this what Brian watches? About amped up.
• 1:11
  Oh, we are doing something else, so go ahead.
• 1:14
  You just drink your Ovaltine, John.
• 1:17
  Brian Chewy. Is this what Brian watches for
• 1:18
  fun? What a goober.
• 1:22
  I mean, I bring it. I, I'm bringing you the news.
• 1:26
  Who else is going to watch Miami Beach City Commission meetings?
• 1:31
  Do you want me to? Say the top three first, or do
• 1:33
  or no because they don't know they're calculating.
• 1:35
  But I got it. John, you want to break the news
• 1:38
  on the top three women? Yeah, I I think somebody in the
• 1:44
  comments. Yeti girls Yeti girls 1 Yeti
• 1:48
  girls 1 Yeti. Girls.
• 1:51
  Five O 4 and then I don't have all the times we're not in front
• 1:55
  of me, but but what I got as best as I can.
• 1:57
  I feel confident about it. But you know it's back in the
• 1:59
  napkin math unofficial, but I feel confident.
• 2:05
  We have a three-way tie for second place with 498 points
• 2:11
  between Noosa Swedish Mafia and the Relight salt base.
• 2:16
  A three-way tie with 498 points. So it went down to tiebreakers.
• 2:23
  Relive Bay has a first and a third.
• 2:27
  Swedish Mafia has a first and a second, but then their next best
• 2:32
  1 is a fourth. And then the Noosa Girls have a
• 2:38
  first and a second and another second place because of this
• 2:42
  event right here, they got second place according to like
• 2:44
  what I see on YouTube. So the Noosa Girls are second
• 2:47
  place and then third place is Swedish House Mafia.
• 2:53
  Wow, they went from 1st to 4th? And the re life salt base and
• 2:59
  all in the lunch. They were the first ones on the
• 3:01
  lunch and then they just couldn't lunch fast like the the
• 3:06
  team Krieger was the best one at the lunges by far.
• 3:11
  The. I do need you to fix your mic
• 3:15
  though, John. OK, I'm sorry.
• 3:17
  Every time I try to show you guys my desk, it like it makes
• 3:21
  the disconnects. Yeah, and.
• 3:24
  Then I don't have to. That has to happen more than one
• 3:26
  time. OK.
• 3:29
  All right, Tyler. John Young, you got a fan.
• 3:35
  You're my best friend. There you go man, that smell
• 3:38
  sounds good. All right, now if that's wrong,
• 3:40
  I apologize, but from what I could see on YouTube, we're
• 3:43
  going to blame the production if that's wrong, because that's
• 3:47
  just, if they cut away and I don't see a team, you know,
• 3:50
  that's on them. But from what I could see, the
• 3:52
  math that I'm doing, that is your results.
• 3:55
  I feel pretty confident about it.
• 3:58
  Danny Spiegel is a reason there was a three-way tie because she
• 4:02
  decided to wait at her worm and did not go past the line.
• 4:05
  So if they're counting Danny's team ahead, that could throw a
• 4:09
  wrench in things. But they shouldn't.
• 4:11
  There should be an appeal and that should be fine.
• 4:14
  Men's side. The boys won in the lunge too.
• 4:17
  I don't know if y'all stall, but what's funny, this is the only
• 4:20
  event I was actually really paying attention to on the
• 4:22
  teams. Chandler.
• 4:24
  The worst event of the weekend? The boys, Chandler, if you
• 4:29
  watched him lunge with the worm, it just looks like they're going
• 4:32
  with reckless, abandoned and just praying to God they don't
• 4:35
  get no reps right? And then the other team got no
• 4:37
  reps, but like, Chandler looks like a Frankenstein walking
• 4:41
  because he's about to fall every Rep and then he just somehow
• 4:44
  keeps holding himself up. Yeah, I don't know.
• 4:51
  I watched that last event, I struggled with it.
• 4:56
  I it wasn't it made sense that they ended up doing 2 toes to
• 5:00
  bar. Why did the one who the stream
• 5:06
  go off? Well, you see the the award
• 5:12
  ceremony is not on the competition floor at Tier Arena,
• 5:14
  it's at a hotel. What?
• 5:18
  Yes, Why? What is that about?
• 5:21
  Well, you want everybody to leave, you know, it's too easy.
• 5:24
  Everybody does there, people still watching when the award
• 5:28
  ceremony happens. It's easier if everybody leaves
• 5:31
  and then meet somewhere else than than to stay where you are
• 5:35
  and do it on the spot. Does that make sense?
• 5:38
  Right. No, they're, they're going to my
• 5:43
  concern. First of all, they cut the
• 5:44
  stream off so nobody watching the stream knows what happened.
• 5:49
  Hopefully they're smart enough to join our show for autistic
• 5:53
  autistic John Young to give. Us our I got you.
• 5:57
  By the way, the PJS ended up being a fourth place team Go.
• 6:01
  WOD snuck in and got him at the end.
• 6:05
  For the podium, come on PJS. No, I'm super happy the fact
• 6:09
  because Jason left and went to freaking like it feel it feels
• 6:14
  like Jason. What do you mean he left?
• 6:16
  Because it like go on like Jay or Jason and Dalen were a team
• 6:22
  like it was Jason, Dalen and Ricky.
• 6:23
  And then Jason decided to go with the better people, right?
• 6:27
  It feels like it feels like and and you know, and they said
• 6:32
  Dalen was the first one to leave.
• 6:34
  And that's what that's what Jason told me.
• 6:36
  Dalen left first. They just didn't announce it
• 6:38
  first, but this it feels like Jason's trying to get in with
• 6:41
  the cool kids with Pat and and and Jeff, right, And the cool
• 6:46
  kids are the Canadians. No, I know we don't see him as
• 6:48
  cool kids, but it feels like he does.
• 6:53
  I, I like it looks like he's trying to get in with the cool
• 6:55
  kids and he just kind of left Allen with the weird Willy and
• 7:00
  Justin, you know, and I'm just, I'm happy that I, I, I'm glad
• 7:06
  go. Why be PJS?
• 7:08
  Even though I thought PJS would win, I predicted them to win.
• 7:11
  I ended up rooting against them by the end of it.
• 7:13
  Wait a minute. Time out.
• 7:15
  So Jillian. Jillian says it's packed here
• 7:20
  and the award ceremonies are at the tier stage.
• 7:23
  Are we getting I? Don't know I.
• 7:26
  What kind of misinformation are we getting?
• 7:28
  Here I am referring to the athlete e-mail that was sent to
• 7:31
  everybody that had all of the answers and it said that would
• 7:38
  be so why would they always do that?
• 7:41
  Let me see. I'm going to open up the Google
• 7:43
  Doc right here. It is the athlete handbook.
• 7:48
  Look, it is the athlete handbook right there.
• 7:54
  Chris, I got nothing against the PJS team but Jeff really made me
• 7:59
  mad when he was like I think 4 days is just too much and I
• 8:02
  wanted to be there for my team. How was being there for your
• 8:05
  team? You got 4th place, how was it?
• 8:08
  Were you there? Were you there for them?
• 8:10
  Did you do it? Just think how bad they would
• 8:12
  have done otherwise. You know, I just, I don't like,
• 8:18
  Yeah, Jeff left a bad taste in my mouth.
• 8:20
  And I'm just, yeah, the whole entire time I was rooting
• 8:25
  against them for that. Not so much Jason, but more,
• 8:28
  more Jeff. I don't know.
• 8:32
  I don't see it now. I know I saw it.
• 8:35
  So maybe they moved it and took it out.
• 8:38
  Maybe they realized it was, oh, closing ceremonies Sunday,
• 8:45
  January 26th. This is elite teams, community
• 8:48
  divisions and gauntlet podium ceremony Sunday, January 26th at
• 8:53
  the Clevelander South Beach Hotel pool deck from 7:30 local
• 8:57
  time to 8:30. So that'd be right now.
• 9:00
  Athletes and teams finishing in a podium place in position will
• 9:03
  be asked to arrive at the Clevelander Hotel by 710.
• 9:06
  They're late. They're late.
• 9:10
  Specific ceremony times for each division about communicate
• 9:12
  closer to the event. It's at the same place as the
• 9:15
  after party location so I don't know what they're doing.
• 9:18
  Siobhan. Siobhan.
• 9:21
  Touché. What does it taste like?
• 9:24
  I I when I said that, I felt it. I felt it when I said it.
• 9:27
  You. Did I was.
• 9:28
  I was surprised Tyler didn't make a face, but thank.
• 9:30
  You, I was thinking it was like, Nope, I'll let that one go.
• 9:33
  You can't. You just can't swing at all of
• 9:35
  them. Yeah, that's fair.
• 9:40
  All right, let's talk about the main topic.
• 9:41
  The main topic? The intro to the show tier Water
• 9:45
  Palooza in 2026 March 12th to 15th, right in the freaking
• 9:53
  middle of. March Madness.
• 9:56
  That. Is true.
• 10:01
  That's the first. That's the first week into March
• 10:03
  Madness. I got, I got.
• 10:05
  I got you good. You got it.
• 10:06
  Oh. Man, I wasn't even thinking
• 10:09
  about that. Yeah, March Madness.
• 10:11
  Spins out. I'm out.
• 10:14
  I'm going to gamble my life away here that.
• 10:16
  Week. No, it's well, first of all,
• 10:22
  Barry Mcarchner, 499 appreciate the coverage this weekend.
• 10:24
  Thank you, Barry. You're welcome.
• 10:26
  My one day of coverage. It your appreciation makes me
• 10:31
  happy that we do this. Before March Madness, is that
• 10:35
  the is that the the conference championships on that weekend?
• 10:40
  I don't know, I was just throwing something out there.
• 10:42
  It was good ESC sounds. Adler in a throuple with Hopper
• 10:46
  and Veldner is a great team. They're missing the furry guy
• 10:53
  though. They're 4th place.
• 10:55
  They had the furry guy that would have probably been fine.
• 10:58
  But no March 15th to March or March 12th to March.
• 11:02
  March 15th tier water palooza. So no more January.
• 11:09
  It'll be in Miami Beach on spring break weekend.
• 11:17
  If you watch the city officials talk about it, they've also
• 11:21
  approached Thai Rocks. I've heard high rocks will be
• 11:25
  the following weekend. And I've also heard, I don't
• 11:30
  have any confirmation on this, that the Miami City or Miami
• 11:32
  Beach Marathon is the weekend after that.
• 11:36
  So 3 weekends in a row, there's some type of fitness competition
• 11:40
  hanging out in Miami Beach. That's kind of cool.
• 11:45
  I mean, from that perspective, I think it is kind.
• 11:47
  Of well, I mean, I think they're trying, they're trying to turn
• 11:49
  March into like their fitness, a fitness month of Miami.
• 11:53
  Beach. They're trying to turn it away
• 11:54
  from a drunk frat Houses. Yeah, I don't know why.
• 11:58
  You would do that. It's worked out for Myrtle
• 12:00
  Beach, thus. Far dude, when back in, you
• 12:03
  know, the 90s or early 2000s like MTV spring break, I think
• 12:09
  that was the pinnacle of Miami Beach not.
• 12:12
  Anymore, No, not anymore. I, I guess this in 24 and then
• 12:18
  I, I think even this year now that they've been booting on
• 12:24
  curfews in limiting access to certain places, like basically
• 12:28
  shutting down the city, trying to keep people from actually
• 12:30
  going. Yeah, midnight 111159.
• 12:36
  You're not allowed to go outside.
• 12:37
  No, yeah, you're not allowed to. You're not allowed to be on the
• 12:39
  beach past midnight. So.
• 12:42
  I had that when I lived there too.
• 12:43
  I at least used to live in Naples and it was like that, but
• 12:46
  nobody enforced it. They could just walk out there
• 12:48
  who's like, people aren't enforcing that.
• 12:51
  How do I just don't know how you enforce it?
• 12:53
  It's like I would fucking lose it on a cop if he was like go,
• 12:56
  go home. No, but that's what they'll do
• 12:59
  though, Like if if they do catch it, the hey can't be here.
• 13:02
  But that's it. That's it.
• 13:02
  But you're not going to get a rest unless you're, you know,
• 13:05
  doing little some some. But like it's so dark, like the
• 13:09
  beach at night. It's crazy.
• 13:10
  Yeah, you could hide anywhere. It's crazy dark.
• 13:15
  Julia Brandon $10.00 for the J YS Oval team.
• 13:18
  That's like three years worth of Oval.
• 13:20
  Team I like. It I like it.
• 13:26
  I'm a pour one out from Mama Brandon.
• 13:30
  Jules, John always needs more Ovaltine.
• 13:36
  Oh look, John, there you go. You can pay Grant.
• 13:39
  I owe Grant $10. Hey everybody, he said James
• 13:42
  Sprague would make the podium, and I said he wouldn't.
• 13:45
  I owe Grant $10. Do you want me to say it again,
• 13:47
  Grant? Grant, Can you donate 10?
• 13:51
  Dollars grant that. $10.00 for us so.
• 13:54
  Grant needs $10 from me. He won a bet from me.
• 13:57
  OK, Everybody knows this. You got it, Grant.
• 14:00
  James Sprague won water palooza and Grant said he would podium
• 14:04
  and I owe him $10. Is there another way you want me
• 14:07
  to put that? I'm kind of at my job right now.
• 14:10
  I'm working. Leave me the freak alone and I
• 14:14
  will Venmo you at a convenient time of my choosing.
• 14:19
  All right? I just had a baby.
• 14:21
  I don't need you sticking me up for 10 freaking dollars, Grant.
• 14:26
  Yeah, he has to buy some baby clothes, not a car seat though
• 14:30
  that was covered by the spin that was and our generous fans
• 14:36
  initial reaction to moving to March Tyler.
• 14:39
  Bad idea. Bad.
• 14:42
  OK. I mean, it's right in the middle
• 14:44
  of the open. Like, cool, it's during spring
• 14:47
  break. But like most people are
• 14:50
  travelling with their families are not looking to go to do
• 14:54
  that. Yeah.
• 14:58
  And then the open just like drives a wedge right in the
• 15:00
  middle of. The I was never there at
• 15:02
  midnight, Mom. I just know that there was a
• 15:05
  curfew on the beat. You weren't allowed to do it.
• 15:08
  That's I just know you weren't allowed to do it.
• 15:10
  I've never done it. If I have it was like once and I
• 15:15
  don't even remember why. Wait a minute, you you started
• 15:20
  with I ain't never and now it's maybe.
• 15:21
  Once. Well, I'm saying it was so not
• 15:25
  memorable, like it wasn't a thing that it's not in my head
• 15:28
  about something I remember. Jy's mom and.
• 15:33
  I listen. I don't drink.
• 15:34
  It's not like I forgot it. It's not.
• 15:38
  Like John, you like the move to March?
• 15:42
  Good move. I'm excited for it to fail.
• 15:47
  Wow. Saying I'm negative and then
• 15:50
  John comes out with that. I do think you're negative.
• 15:56
  What about this? I'm good about it.
• 15:57
  What about this? What?
• 15:58
  It frees up people to actually travel down there, doesn't it?
• 16:03
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 16:05
  OK. They can take their they don't
• 16:07
  have, they don't have school obligations.
• 16:09
  They can bring their kids down. The masters community is going
• 16:11
  to be just the the masters division is going to just be
• 16:14
  popping off and what if. The first.
• 16:19
  What if the first workout or the workout for every division is
• 16:24
  the open workout? That could work.
• 16:28
  Do you want to explain what the elite competition is like?
• 16:32
  There's a change to it as well, correct?
• 16:34
  I don't. Think we know what they're
• 16:35
  doing? OK, OK.
• 16:40
  Well, like I'm saying, I'm saying if it's in March, if it's
• 16:43
  in March, they would change how they do things because they
• 16:46
  can't, they wouldn't. I'm saying the qualifier would
• 16:48
  be a different time, like all that stuff.
• 16:51
  I would think so. Keeping it real 999 What changes
• 16:56
  owes me. I'm still in the green with this
• 16:58
  chat. There you go.
• 17:01
  T Bird wants to know the podium. For for men or women, T Bird.
• 17:06
  Yes. They still haven't told y'all.
• 17:13
  No, it's the stream's done. Nobody knows.
• 17:16
  They're not updated. And got to go to the hotel.
• 17:19
  My guess is that they're not going to update it until.
• 17:22
  You think I should like put it in the comments on their stream
• 17:24
  or just? The stream's dead, John.
• 17:26
  Oh, OK. That's good.
• 17:29
  It's gone. It's gone.
• 17:35
  When do you think their qualifier would be?
• 17:38
  I mean they moved it back this year to October, November time
• 17:43
  frame. Like, because like, what I'm
• 17:45
  thinking is if like, you know, they have that qualifier, like,
• 17:51
  where does that fall in place with the World Fitness project
• 17:53
  if they move that again? And then that's in the way of
• 17:56
  something. That's what that's what I'm
• 17:58
  saying. Like everything might be
• 18:00
  potentially be in the way of something other than the.
• 18:02
  Actual con during. The Open.
• 18:04
  Yeah, I mean for the the world fitness peeps, they're all going
• 18:07
  to be well, most should have qualified for the Games.
• 18:14
  Wait, Brian friend, turn it back on.
• 18:15
  Is he? Do they have a new stream?
• 18:18
  No, he's saying, he's saying, he's saying turn it back on.
• 18:23
  Got it. Yeah, I'm not worried about the
• 18:28
  qualifier too much for the world fitness project.
• 18:30
  Like if you are those top 20 and you want to compete in
• 18:33
  Wadapalooza, they're. Going to leave.
• 18:35
  You, I mean, you should compete the games, just get your invite.
• 18:41
  So from that standpoint, I think the qualifier is, is there.
• 18:45
  What it does do is if you do want to compete at
• 18:47
  Tierwadapalooza now it's in March, now you have open
• 18:52
  Tierwadapalooza semifinals Mayhem still early April.
• 18:56
  So like, January at least gave you a little bit of a break,
• 19:00
  right? I mean, I don't know if you
• 19:01
  really want to do it after the World Fitness finals right
• 19:05
  before Christmas and then a month later come down here and
• 19:08
  then whatnot, but March, April, May gets crazy next year.
• 19:14
  Dude, nobody's going to care if you're do.
• 19:16
  If you're doing it and like an open workout is during that
• 19:19
  week. Nobody cares about Wadapalooza.
• 19:25
  Because everybody's just focusing on their open, right?
• 19:29
  And that would that would probably be the last weekend,
• 19:31
  too. Like the open announcement, like
• 19:34
  like, you know, like like whatever, whatever they end up
• 19:36
  doing for the open, you know what I mean?
• 19:38
  And then people are Youtubing open videos right?
• 19:40
  What if the announcements at tier?
• 19:42
  That would that's what just what I was thinking that.
• 19:44
  Would I mean that would be the yeah.
• 19:45
  And and that that, that they could work it out like that.
• 19:48
  Yeah. So you do the announcement at
• 19:50
  Tier Water Palooza. The workout that's not announced
• 19:53
  is the 24.3 or 26.3 now. Jeez.
• 20:00
  I would like that to be the first workout the pros do.
• 20:05
  Thursday it would be well, they'd be doing 2 workouts on
• 20:08
  Thursday and then. That's fine.
• 20:10
  Thursday night, Yeah, announce it.
• 20:12
  And that's their workout. Yeah, that's the first workout
• 20:14
  they do that would hype your thing up big.
• 20:17
  It would. Probably benefit everything both
• 20:20
  and then the communities could take it on Friday morning or
• 20:25
  Friday Night Lights for for them.
• 20:28
  See, they're they're getting gold here.
• 20:30
  We're giving you guys this stuff for free.
• 20:32
  I know Dylan watches. So Dylan.
• 20:36
  Go figure it out. That is more of a contribution
• 20:38
  to your competition than anything you just gave money to.
• 20:42
  I just want to tell you that that would that single handedly
• 20:45
  that idea would bring unless you already had it and then I'm just
• 20:48
  saying nothing. But if you didn't have it, that
• 20:51
  would bring more people to watch your competition than anything
• 20:55
  you have done thus far. Am I am I wrong in saying that?
• 20:58
  To yeah, I mean to have it right after that and then.
• 21:01
  I feel like you should give, you should give us $5000 for that
• 21:04
  contribution right there just because we said it first.
• 21:08
  Speaking of that, Loud Live pulling out $800,000 from the
• 21:14
  city to move to March. How about that Cha?
• 21:20
  Ching. Yeah, so apparently during that
• 21:23
  whole discussion of how to bring fitness to March, this economic
• 21:29
  committee went and talked to High Rocks and to CrossFit,
• 21:35
  which was technically loud and live and not CrossFit.
• 21:38
  And High Rocks said I need $600,000 and loud live.
• 21:42
  Dylan said I need $800,000. And they're like, here's your
• 21:47
  check, let's do it. So crazy, $800,000 to move to
• 21:53
  March, followed by High Rocks, and then the marathon's just on
• 21:57
  its own. But.
• 22:00
  Marathon gets no money. I haven't checked to see if if
• 22:05
  Hyrox announced it or not, but you heard it here first.
• 22:11
  Hashtag High Rock so people will pick it up.
• 22:14
  I tagged him. I tagged him.
• 22:16
  Yeah. Yeah, they can see that.
• 22:20
  Where was it? I saw something up here.
• 22:21
  I wanted to see Aaron Frazier. That would suck for spectators
• 22:25
  who want to do the open with their community.
• 22:29
  Unless you paid 50 bucks to do it there and had like you know
• 22:36
  how the games has that floor where you can go?
• 22:38
  I think out again, it's that's what I mean, I mean, yeah,
• 22:40
  you're not going to be doing with your with your gym, but
• 22:43
  yeah, you can. I don't think it's.
• 22:45
  That is your community, Aaron. It is your extended community.
• 22:48
  Your world global community. Yeah, yeah, I could see it.
• 22:54
  I mean like I could see a way of spinning it.
• 22:56
  Missus Young, they could have a station where any of the fans
• 22:59
  could sign up to do the open with their other fans.
• 23:01
  So they they basically just have the gauntlet or whatever and
• 23:04
  it's just instead of the gauntlet, it's just the open.
• 23:07
  Yep. You just cycle people through to
• 23:10
  your open. Workout That's actually that's a
• 23:15
  pretty neat idea that I wonder. Well, the Open, they did a the
• 23:21
  Open at the Arnold one year. Mr. Waffle Walrus is on the same
• 23:26
  page, OK? What's that?
• 23:32
  That was 2012. They did the open at the Arnold
• 23:36
  2000. Yeah, something like that and.
• 23:40
  So it's like it's sort of been done like that before.
• 23:42
  I think it would be cool. Yeah, that could definitely make
• 23:45
  it work. Yeah, I don't think they're
• 23:47
  going to do any of that, man. I think they're going to just
• 23:50
  make a whole bunch of wrong decisions and and it's just
• 23:55
  going to suck. Dude, there's that brilliant
• 23:58
  positivity shining through. No, I'm just saying my like,
• 24:02
  we're, we're like coming up with ways for it to work and it would
• 24:06
  be cool. And like, yeah, that makes a lot
• 24:08
  of sense. And I just feel like they're not
• 24:10
  going to listen to any of it and they're going to be retarded and
• 24:14
  it's just going to suck because the only reason I say that and
• 24:21
  stop me if I'm not allowed to say something.
• 24:24
  Guys, we. Never know what you're about to
• 24:26
  say. John.
• 24:28
  Like there's I, there's a pattern.
• 24:32
  I've not, I've not when Pat took a turn.
• 24:37
  They don't listen to what we say is all I'm saying.
• 24:41
  I'm not saying we're great, but I just but, but, you know,
• 24:46
  typically when we put our hands on something, it usually works
• 24:50
  out pretty well. You know, like when the Sevon
• 24:53
  crews like, hey, this is what it needs to be low budget, it ends
• 24:57
  up coming out much better than most things is all I'm saying.
• 25:01
  And we have, I feel like with water Palooza, we have tried to
• 25:07
  give like ideas, not even saying like, hey, let us do it.
• 25:10
  We're not even saying that, but like, like we have tried.
• 25:15
  I feel like, I mean, especially like Tyler talks to Dylan all
• 25:18
  the time. Like, like we give ideas to them
• 25:21
  and they just never listen to us.
• 25:23
  They never. Listen to us.
• 25:24
  They want to do their own thing and it's always retarded.
• 25:27
  And it's just it's it's how was the production?
• 25:32
  How was the production this year?
• 25:34
  How was it, huh? What this weekend?
• 25:36
  Yes. Let's look at the comments,
• 25:38
  let's see if everybody enjoyed the production this weekend.
• 25:41
  And it's not for a lack of trying.
• 25:43
  It's not for. Comments.
• 25:44
  I took a screenshot of like like.
• 25:47
  Be careful with screenshots, Tyler.
• 25:49
  The the it's just it's just I just they just they don't listen
• 25:57
  to us and they're just I'm not saying they're dumb, but I just
• 26:00
  feel like they're not going to this time either and it's just
• 26:02
  going to suck. I did.
• 26:10
  I did. It was with freaking crash and
• 26:12
  how did it go? It went pretty freaking good.
• 26:15
  Wait till Norcal and syndicate. It's not me too.
• 26:18
  I'm a part of a sphere. You know how like when your
• 26:22
  phone doesn't work, you get pissed at it because it's like
• 26:24
  it you, you just rather not have a phone if your phone doesn't
• 26:27
  work right? You know, it's like, that's like
• 26:29
  saying, well, build Apple and tell us how it works.
• 26:32
  And it's like, I'm not saying that I'd do a better job, but if
• 26:35
  you're going to do this, like you need to freaking do it.
• 26:40
  Oh, we got a poll up. Yeah, did you enjoy the live
• 26:43
  stream? Nice.
• 26:45
  Go vote. Remember to vote.
• 26:50
  Hi, John. And I'm not saying we're perfect
• 26:53
  or like, let us do it. That's not what I'm saying.
• 26:55
  I'm just we have given them things that, hey, I think this
• 26:58
  would work really well. And then they they don't, they
• 27:01
  listen to none of it. Am I wrong in saying that?
• 27:05
  Who? Well, who doesn't listen to us
• 27:09
  people? Listen, they.
• 27:12
  Just don't have to do it. So what?
• 27:14
  What's that scene from White Man can't jump?
• 27:17
  I know you're listening, but you ain't hearing him.
• 27:20
  No, no, no, no. It's the other way around.
• 27:22
  Is it the other way around? Yeah.
• 27:24
  Yeah, yeah. JC, how do you do a live
• 27:27
  counter? Is someone clicking a button?
• 27:28
  Oh, no, maybe you're right. Because he goes.
• 27:30
  I can hear Jimmy. I can hear Jimmy.
• 27:33
  And like, yeah. So yeah, yeah, no, you're right.
• 27:35
  You're right. The way I understand it and the
• 27:39
  way that Rogue does it is they have an app and it's so it's
• 27:44
  connected to iPads and they have a person for every athlete on
• 27:50
  the floor or every team that sits there and hits plus 1 + 1 +
• 27:55
  1 every time there's a Rep. And so if you look at the games,
• 28:00
  you'll see a whole bunch of people standing on the other
• 28:02
  side of the media pit. Each one of those people is
• 28:05
  tracking 1 athlete and it's actually pretty good.
• 28:09
  And sometimes they have ability to hit like type in a number.
• 28:15
  Others you just have to hit plus one.
• 28:16
  Like if it's a wait, you just got to sit there and go and then
• 28:20
  until it gets up to 380, that would be terrible.
• 28:26
  And when I, when I, when we say in live stream, I'm not, we're
• 28:29
  not talking about Chase and Bill.
• 28:31
  That's the broadcast team. That's not the live stream.
• 28:35
  The live stream's just what you see when it cuts.
• 28:39
  If audio matches what freaking words say, it's like watching a
• 28:42
  Chinese movie. Have you ever watched a Chinese
• 28:44
  Kung Fu movie? And they're like and like,
• 28:48
  that's how it is the whole freaking time.
• 28:50
  That's how watching the live stream was.
• 28:53
  Then it dubs over it and it's really bad.
• 28:55
  Yeah, now. It's like Crouch and Hopper
• 28:59
  hidden down. It's, I think the difference
• 29:01
  between Crash and what Sivan has done is they're not trying to be
• 29:08
  the A+ broadcast crew, right? You know what you're getting,
• 29:12
  You're getting a, an amateur production that's done to the
• 29:15
  best ability, that makes it personable and different and
• 29:19
  unique. Not trying to be ESPN.
• 29:23
  That's tough, right? Like Hamilton Road's been doing
• 29:26
  this for years. I mean, they were basically the
• 29:28
  old CrossFit production team and they got let go in 18.
• 29:31
  They started up Hamilton Rd. Yeah.
• 29:35
  And I knew how to do it. They've done everything for
• 29:36
  years. I think they basically got all
• 29:39
  the equipment for like pennies on the dollar from CrossFit.
• 29:42
  When they saw it, when they yeah, that's that's actually
• 29:45
  kind of cool that they would have let that stuff go.
• 29:47
  That way, yeah. And but they but they've been
• 29:50
  pros for doing it for 10/12/14 years now.
• 29:55
  Yeah, it's tough. So Teresa didn't watch this,
• 30:03
  didn't the live chat. That's a scary place to be.
• 30:11
  Can you imagine waking up this morning just like have a cup of
• 30:14
  coffee in your hand, not looking at the live feed and just
• 30:17
  watching the chat? Hey Suits Castillo.
• 30:23
  Castillo, am I good? Close dollar 99.
• 30:25
  Appreciate it. Thank you, Castillo.
• 30:29
  Not going to keep this dragging on too much.
• 30:31
  Biggest take away from 2025 to your water Palooza, OH.
• 30:36
  Man, like as far Lucy's awesome. Like physical.
• 30:43
  Anything you want What what did you anything you want to say
• 30:47
  that you were just like OK, 2025 biggest take away.
• 30:53
  James Sprague is the fittest man on Earth.
• 30:56
  I'm not going to say my biggest take away on air.
• 30:59
  I'll tell you guys privately, that's a good show.
• 31:03
  It's just I, I. What's your second best second
• 31:06
  take away? What's your second take away,
• 31:08
  John? Yeah, I mean, Tyler said it like
• 31:10
  Lucy Campbell has arrived and she's I, I think we need to make
• 31:15
  like a, a montage of this weekend with her like on
• 31:18
  Instagram and then just put allow me to reintroduce myself
• 31:23
  and then just have her just. A whole bunch of Lucy.
• 31:25
  Do her finishing the ring muscle up and like right as Laura's
• 31:30
  failing in the back, you know what I mean?
• 31:32
  Like, like we can we can make a pretty sick like real.
• 31:37
  I think that has to be the biggest take away.
• 31:39
  I mean, Lucy winning is one of the biggest things that has ever
• 31:43
  happened. One of the biggest upsets that
• 31:45
  have ever happened. Great story.
• 31:47
  Like you don't get much better. I think if Ricky won the first
• 31:50
  year he came back, that might be the only thing that could top it
• 31:54
  because because it's such a redemption story, right?
• 31:58
  But obvious that didn't happen, right?
• 32:00
  So yeah, I think that's my biggest take away.
• 32:04
  Renata. No, sorry, they're still trying.
• 32:06
  To get together with Bill, if you if you want to know the Yeti
• 32:09
  girls got first place, Swedish Mafia or Noosa, Noosa is second
• 32:15
  place and then Swedish Mafia is third place and then for the
• 32:18
  men. And Salt Bayes took fourth.
• 32:21
  The second, third and fourth were all tied.
• 32:24
  All tied, it was a three-way tie for second place with 498 in
• 32:28
  first place. The Yeti girls had five O 4.
• 32:31
  All right for the men's side. The boys won first.
• 32:33
  Trace Ley Chase was second and then Go Wod was third.
• 32:37
  PJS misses out. They beat the PJS Jesus spec
• 32:42
  again for another 499. I forgot to type the message lol
• 32:45
  but I thought my Internet was messed up the whole time
• 32:47
  watching the live stream I I will not lie there were a few
• 32:51
  messages sent internally asking did did audio cut out?
• 32:57
  Is it frozen? Did you see it?
• 32:59
  Is it? Look who you're talking to,
• 33:03
  girl. You know.
• 33:06
  You should know better not to ask that.
• 33:07
  Question John has his white board and he writes down the
• 33:10
  times. I got my Ovaltine and I got a
• 33:13
  wife beater on and I got my and I got my slightly autistic
• 33:18
  brain. You don't need to ask that
• 33:19
  question. Do you use a piece of paper and
• 33:21
  pencil or do you use a whiteboard?
• 33:24
  Oh no. I'm.
• 33:27
  Doing some work so we got. Yeah, there you go, folks.
• 33:33
  He's sitting in front of the. Computer.
• 33:35
  He's sitting. In front of the computer like
• 33:36
  you do math. That one, That one, and then we
• 33:40
  got, we got another page here then, yeah.
• 33:44
  What was this been earlier? You showed me a screenshot of
• 33:47
  John doing Excel work and I was like, he typed those numbers in.
• 33:51
  Yeah, he. Showed me a spreadsheet and it
• 33:53
  had like a screenshot. I think you may have to get a
• 33:55
  picture of the screen. Pretty sure you just typed those
• 33:59
  things in there to make it look legible.
• 34:02
  Yeah, you didn't calculate calculate anything.
• 34:04
  Or was it literally just you typed?
• 34:05
  In no no, I calculate everything.
• 34:08
  In Excel or on the paper? On the paper.
• 34:10
  No, I calculate. Are you talking about the thing
• 34:13
  I sent in the chat? Yeah.
• 34:14
  No, I I had to do some math for that.
• 34:17
  Where did you do that? I did it on the calculator.
• 34:19
  On the calculator I didn't. Put it.
• 34:24
  In there I so OK, well I did like half of it on a calculator
• 34:30
  like like. Listen.
• 34:37
  Listen, like I do all the math in my head really quickly and
• 34:41
  then when it's a number, I can't like once we're at the total and
• 34:44
  then I have like a little like equation, I got to put it in and
• 34:47
  I can't do that equation in my head.
• 34:48
  So that goes in the calculator, but I do all the math to get to
• 34:51
  that equation. I I just.
• 34:54
  Like talking about the calculator in Excel?
• 34:56
  Or are you talking about a calculator that is separate from
• 34:59
  the? Excel.
• 35:00
  I use a calculator that's. Why is that a bad?
• 35:07
  Thing. Because it doesn't have a.
• 35:10
  Calculator then how come y'all can't do it?
• 35:13
  I'm the quickest one of these little when we do the freaking.
• 35:15
  Meter board. I'm building thumbnails and
• 35:19
  setting up live streams. I'm teaching.
• 35:22
  I'm tutoring math. Again, Julian, Julian, I
• 35:26
  appreciate the money you just sent to us, but stop being
• 35:29
  freaking retarded. I said the live stream, not the
• 35:33
  broadcast. The broadcast was the only thing
• 35:35
  that was good about it at all. Imagine if Bill.
• 35:39
  Yeah, if if. Imagine if Bill and Chase
• 35:42
  weren't there. I mean, I don't know.
• 35:47
  It get as many viewers as an average bee friendly show.
• 35:50
  OK, Bill and Chase saved it. Saved it.
• 35:53
  They're not getting paid enough. I don't know what they're
• 35:55
  getting paid, but they should quadruple whatever they're
• 35:58
  getting. Paid regardless, just separate
• 36:00
  from the live stream them doing 4 days in a row.
• 36:04
  Nothing. Everything like generally when
• 36:08
  you go to the game and stuff like the teams are separated
• 36:10
  from the individuals, like you're only doing part of it and
• 36:13
  you get these kind of big breaks.
• 36:15
  I don't think they got, I mean, I'm sure they people brought
• 36:17
  them food like they weren't taking like they had very
• 36:21
  limited time to take breaks. So the fact that they were able
• 36:26
  to stay strong, stay the keep the energy out for four days,
• 36:30
  plus dealing with all the technical issues, especially the
• 36:33
  first day had to be difficult and they're able to do it.
• 36:38
  Oh. Man Gree, Ellen.
• 36:42
  Gree, Ellen Johansen. It's definitely gree.
• 36:45
  I think it's right. Greek Helene.
• 36:49
  We're close. Someone someone, one of us got
• 36:51
  it. Appreciate the $5.
• 36:53
  I ended up just listening to Chase and Bill.
• 36:55
  The live stream was so bad. Yeah, it did turn into like old
• 37:01
  school baseball situation where it's like, I remember driving
• 37:04
  around the car with my dad listening to the Reds.
• 37:06
  It was the same thing. I was like doing shit today just
• 37:08
  listening to Bill and Chase. Bill and Chase made it
• 37:11
  watchable. Don't Bill and Chase just get
• 37:13
  free swag? I'm pretty sure they got a
• 37:15
  little bit more but I have no idea if it was free swag.
• 37:19
  I hope it was exclusive. Impair ads.
• 37:26
  My take away it's it's not the most positive, but I think it
• 37:31
  shows when you move venues or do something new how difficult it
• 37:37
  can be, right? Like I'm, I only went to
• 37:41
  Tierrawada Palooza the last two years and as many downfalls as
• 37:46
  it had of being limited in space, the weather, which it's
• 37:52
  going to be bad weather whether you're in Miami Beach or at
• 37:55
  Bayfront Park, you know, and it was kind of swampy like last
• 38:00
  year when it was raining like crazy, but they had the same
• 38:02
  weather here this year. I mean, that would have been the
• 38:05
  same of been a mess. But changing venues when you're
• 38:10
  at a certain place for years, your team gets down like knows
• 38:13
  how to run it. And changing venues like going
• 38:19
  to a sand stage. I know they had Socal to kind of
• 38:21
  test it, but things like smoothing out the lanes, it's
• 38:24
  like something you don't think about when you have that many
• 38:27
  people going through it, right? Like so it was, you got that.
• 38:34
  Then you combine it with a different broadcast team or live
• 38:38
  stream team if you want to be technical.
• 38:40
  Like a lot of new things going on and it was a little rough.
• 38:47
  I still wish they were a Bayfront.
• 38:51
  I miss Flagler being. Flag, it's just iconic.
• 38:56
  It's so and it's like, yeah, you didn't, I don't know that this,
• 39:00
  I mean maybe it was cost situation of Bayfront.
• 39:03
  I mean, getting getting Miami Beach to pony up lots of money.
• 39:08
  Yeah, I had heard that Bayfront Miami didn't really.
• 39:12
  It was like they just treated like anybody else, like you want
• 39:14
  the space, pay for it. So if Miami Beach is welcoming
• 39:17
  and willing to pay because they think there's some economic
• 39:19
  value to Miami Beach hosting it, OK.
• 39:24
  But two years ago at Flagler, the first time I went in there,
• 39:30
  and I get that it was difficult for spectators to go in there,
• 39:34
  but it was amazing atmosphere, having people on top of you,
• 39:40
  like cheering for all the athletes.
• 39:41
  It was loud. It was just insane and I wasn't
• 39:48
  there this year, but there might be more people there, but I
• 39:51
  cannot imagine it's even close to what it was like at Flagler.
• 39:54
  No. And Bayside Stage was cool.
• 39:58
  The barge they had to come up with last year was cool.
• 40:01
  Being out there on the water, that was cool.
• 40:03
  Yeah. I mean, they just have a lot of
• 40:04
  stuff. And yeah, sometimes it's like it
• 40:10
  has to happen. I think in this case, probably a
• 40:12
  lot of financial reasons had made it happen, but it sucks
• 40:16
  that that's come to a close and close and stop being able to be
• 40:19
  replicated. So that was my big take away.
• 40:25
  Yeah. So yeah.
• 40:29
  And I, I think as much as you look at the live stream viewers,
• 40:33
  I think it was about the same as last year, like concurrent, so
• 40:38
  right around 7000 at any time. I don't know if it peaked at
• 40:41
  certain times but like I did see a screenshot that was about the
• 40:46
  same. So maybe I remember 2022 or 2021
• 40:51
  numbers. It wouldn't have been 21, but
• 40:53
  22. 22 numbers I feel like it was like.
• 40:58
  It came back and it was. That's kind of a big deal.
• 41:01
  Yeah. So.
• 41:04
  That one was insane, yeah. All right, guys, we'll be back
• 41:10
  on Wednesday. I don't know what we'll talk
• 41:12
  about. I'm sure we'll find something.
• 41:15
  Yeah, we should try to get somebody to come on we.
• 41:20
  Could. Yeah, I think we're in the Yeah,
• 41:23
  yeah. Tyler Heat 1 go, we'll have.
• 41:30
  Scores soon, yeah. Thanks everybody who played.
• 41:35
  It was great. Prizes will be announced soon,
• 41:38
  of course. If you won, we'll reach out to
• 41:39
  you. Yeah, it was a great turn out.
• 41:42
  A little update. Top 10 for teams.
• 41:44
  I was 11th. I jumped up from whatever 91st
• 41:49
  to 11th. Yeah, shot caller 16th did.
• 41:54
  You end up beating me. I want to say you.
• 41:58
  Did you got 10th on the shot caller?
• 41:59
  Oh. Man, that's the only one.
• 42:02
  I was good at it. I really think I had the best
• 42:05
  score. Across it.
• 42:08
  Yeah, top ten, I was 6th in the individual 93rd, individual shot
• 42:14
  caller 11th and 16th. Once the once the open starts, I
• 42:25
  think Tyler should start keeping running stats and then we.
• 42:29
  Could have players, but. We could have a heat 1 year
• 42:33
  yearly ranking. Yeah.
• 42:35
  And then it like it closes with the games I guess.
• 42:38
  And then and then like Rogue and Wadapalooza.
• 42:41
  And World Fitness project in December, I think we start, I
• 42:45
  think we start with Wadapalooza because it would be a.
• 42:48
  Calendar year you had such a great competition, good time to
• 42:52
  start. I was thinking the cross your
• 42:53
  game season and then those are one offs 'cause you can get
• 42:56
  sponsors like throughout the. Whole thing, I think it's the
• 42:59
  whole, whole year, calendar year.
• 43:02
  I would have took. It a little more serious.
• 43:04
  Yeah, if I knew that was a. Good time to start.
• 43:06
  Yeah, we can do that. We can figure something like
• 43:08
  that out I think. We can start with the open and
• 43:11
  it ends in the next open. Nope.
• 43:14
  No, you just don't like it cuz you got beat.
• 43:18
