  No, they're at school.

  They go back to school, right?

  Yeah.

• 1:02
  I still have two weeks.
• 1:04
  That's awesome.
• 1:05
  Yeah.
• 1:06
  I mean, I, to be honest,
• 1:08
  I was actually already
• 1:09
  doing some stuff right
• 1:10
  before we logged in here.
• 1:11
  Like I'm,
• 1:12
  I don't have to be physically there yet,
• 1:14

• 1:15
  I've got a lot of work to do to
• 1:17

  Okay.
• 1:24

• 1:28
  about this is even my kids

• 1:35
  why'd you get all dressed
• 1:36
  up for your podcast today I
• 1:40
  didn't get dressed up you
• 1:41
  mean put makeup on and do
• 1:42
  my hair I know it's so rare
• 1:44
  it only happens once every
• 1:46
  few weeks so that's so good
• 1:49
  how long have we been doing this podcast
• 1:52
  Four years.
• 1:54
  It's almost five.
• 1:56
  Yeah.
• 1:57
  Almost five, right?
• 1:58
  Yeah.
• 1:58
  Do you realize that like the
• 2:00
  majority of our listeners are listeners?
• 2:04
  Oh, sorry.
• 2:05
  So you should read the comment.
• 2:07
  The comment said,
• 2:09
  Amy got Kat's hairdresser's
• 2:11
  number or something.
• 2:12
  I did my hair.
• 2:14
  I washed my hair.
• 2:15
  It's clean.
• 2:16
  It smells good.
• 2:17
  I blow dried it and then I curled it.
• 2:19
  It looks awesome.
• 2:21
  I am.
• 2:22
  I got my hair did yesterday.
• 2:23
  Yeah.
• 2:25
  So I just woke up this morning,
• 2:27
  slept on it,
• 2:27
  worked out and then fluffed it.
• 2:31
  Cause I can do that.
• 2:32
  See, I can't do that.
• 2:34
  Oh, I put extra goo in mine.
• 2:36
  There you go.
• 2:39
  Speaking of working out cat
• 2:41
  worked out this morning.
• 2:42
  What'd you do?
• 2:43
  I did.
• 2:43
  Um, I did the, uh,
• 2:47
  A 15 minute AMRAP with a 25
• 2:51
  double under five dumbbell push press,
• 2:53
  five dumbbell step over
• 2:55
  buy-in with a max calorie echo bike.
• 2:59
  So five rounds in three minutes,
• 3:02
  like a three minute in
• 3:03
  three minute intervals.
• 3:05
  So I got like, I didn't get many calories.
• 3:07
  I was kind of dogging it.
• 3:08
  I was quitting after like
• 3:09
  two minutes and 45 seconds to get a rest.
• 3:12
  Um,
• 3:13
  think I got like 65 calories
• 3:15
  I think the the highest
• 3:16
  member at my gym got like
• 3:17
  75 calories maybe for the
• 3:20
  five rounds um you ended up
• 3:22
  being on the bike for like
• 3:23
  a minute and a half minute
• 3:26
  45 seconds two minutes if
• 3:27
  you were really fast but I
• 3:28
  used 20 pound dumbbells in
• 3:30
  a 20 inch box um but fun
• 3:33
  fact yesterday I did a
• 3:34
  workout with power cleans
• 3:37
  and um I did 85 pounds and
• 3:39
  it was like for reps it was
• 3:41
  a it was a lot of
• 3:42
  work.
• 3:42
  I was doing them as singles.
• 3:43
  And I was saying to somebody like, um,
• 3:47
  I remember when I could do grace, my,
• 3:50
  my best grace time is like
• 3:52
  two 47 or two 27 or something like that.
• 3:55
  Grace.
• 3:55
  Yeah, 95 pounds, clean and jerks,
• 3:57
  like 30 in a row.
• 3:58
  And this was like sets of
• 4:00
  eight clean and jerks.
• 4:02
  And I was doing them at 85
• 4:03
  pounds and it was like one at a time.
• 4:06
  Yeah.
• 4:07
  With breaks in between.
• 4:08
  I think I cycled like three,
• 4:10
  one of the rounds,
• 4:11
  I think it was doing like rounds of nine.
• 4:13
  It was so hard.
• 4:16
  I'm really out of shape.
• 4:17
  Yeah.
• 4:18
  It's engine goes so fast.
• 4:23
  All of it.
• 4:24
  I'm losing a lot of strength, too,
• 4:26
  just from not lifting.
• 4:27
  But I did back squats yesterday,
• 4:28
  so tomorrow I will be dying,
• 4:32
  hurting in a lot of ways.
• 4:34
  That's what I expect.
• 4:35
  Day two.
• 4:35
  How about you?
• 4:39
  Scott,
• 4:39
  you don't work out today because of
• 4:41
  this podcast right here.
• 4:43
  Correct.
• 4:44
  Did you work out yesterday?
• 4:47
  My workouts look really
• 4:48
  shitty right now just
• 4:49
  because of the no antihistamine issue.
• 4:54
  It was a pretty nice day yesterday.
• 4:55
  Yeah.
• 4:57
  Did you walk yesterday?
• 4:58
  You should walk.
• 5:00
  I probably did walk, Walter, a little bit.
• 5:02
  Okay.
• 5:04
  But I did get on the bike
• 5:06
  and just kind of hang out
• 5:07
  in my garage yesterday.
• 5:09
  Yeah.
• 5:11
  Charlie and I did a terrible
• 5:12
  workout today.
• 5:13
  Terrible.
• 5:15
  It was three rounds every 10 minutes.
• 5:18
  You do 12 calories on the bike,
• 5:23
  12 burpee box getovers,
• 5:26
  12 calories on the bike,
• 5:27
  nine burpee box getovers,
• 5:28
  12 calories on the bike,
• 5:30
  six burpee box getovers.
• 5:33
  Yeah, three rounds of that.
• 5:35
  It was a sprint because the
• 5:38
  goal is to be done around
• 5:39
  five minutes and then rest.
• 5:42
  What do you guys do for the getovers?
• 5:45
  Well, I coached it one way.
• 5:48
  And then when I did the workout,
• 5:49
  I did it a totally different way.
• 5:51
  I typically like to,
• 5:53
  do it like, um,
• 5:54
  like where I'm almost like
• 5:56
  diagonal towards the box.
• 5:57
  And then I placed my hands
• 5:58
  on the box and then jump my feet on top.
• 6:01
  And then I kind of twist and turn around.
• 6:02
  Um, so are you piling, like,
• 6:05
  is it 40 inches or you're probably, no,
• 6:07
  no, no, no, no.
• 6:08
  It was 24 and 30 inches today.
• 6:11
  Oh, okay.
• 6:12
  Got it.
• 6:12
  So we didn't need to do that with other,
• 6:14
  there was no banding of,
• 6:15
  there's no Chad set up at the gym.
• 6:18
  Nope.
• 6:18
  But I did do, when I did the workout,
• 6:20
  I did do my burpee and then
• 6:21
  put my butt on the box and
• 6:23
  spin it around.
• 6:25
  Perfect.
• 6:26
  It was, it was, it counted.
• 6:27
  We have, there's a lot of, uh,
• 6:31
  rowing program or burpee
• 6:33
  over rower programmed with Ibex and, uh,
• 6:37
  the people at my gym cannot,
• 6:38
  are not hurtling over a rower.
• 6:40
  So we always end up just
• 6:41
  doing regular burpees, but yeah.
• 6:43
  Burpee get overs.
• 6:44
  I think they, they dig.
• 6:45
  I like them.
• 6:46
  Interrupted.
• 6:46
  Yeah.
• 6:49
  Corey, six rounds,
• 6:50
  two minutes rest between,
• 6:51
  32 heavy rope dubs, 16 GHD sit-ups,
• 6:55
  10 thrusters at 115,
• 6:57
  eight-bar muscle-ups.
• 6:59
  10 thrusters at 115.
• 7:07
  On a different note, Scott,
• 7:09
  my wife is traveling over
• 7:10
  to Alabama with her mother, Karen Dawkins,
• 7:13
  who will compete in the
• 7:14
  65-plus next weekend.
• 7:17
  One, super excited to meet them.
• 7:19
  That's going to be awesome.
• 7:21
  Two,
• 7:22
  why hasn't she contacted me to have a
• 7:24
  profile done on this channel?
• 7:28
  Let's do it.
• 7:30
  She should.
• 7:33
  I interviewed Kelly Frio
• 7:34
  last week from the UK,
• 7:36
  and I'm interviewing a guy
• 7:38
  tomorrow from the UK.
• 7:42
  So, yeah.
• 7:42
  Hmm.
• 7:45
  I've not interviewed anybody
• 7:46
  from the Isle of Man.
• 7:51
  Chelsea says,
• 7:54
  been a while since I've made a live.
• 7:56
  Amy, how goes the muscle-ups?
• 7:59
  We're still chugging along.
• 8:02
  Actually, I got my first entry from them.
• 8:04
  Let's see if you can see this.
• 8:07
  See this bruise?
• 8:08
  I'm going to lose this.
• 8:09
  Oh, yeah.
• 8:09
  What happened?
• 8:11
  Well, we've been working on...
• 8:13
  No,
• 8:13
  we've been working on some strength and
• 8:15
  it was, you know,
• 8:16
  like face down on a bench
• 8:20
  and like doing dumbbell rows.
• 8:22
  And so like I went to put
• 8:23
  the dumbbells down and I
• 8:24
  just slammed it right on
• 8:25
  top of my finger.
• 8:27
  And that was that.
• 8:29
  But my I've been doing
• 8:31
  assisted strict muscle ups
• 8:33
  and they're looking good.
• 8:36
  My coach even said.
• 8:39
  I've been taking the online
• 8:40
  gymnastics course for the
• 8:42
  last year and a half because I just,
• 8:46
  I go to it and then I
• 8:47
  forget about it and then I revisit it.
• 8:49
  And now that I'm due for
• 8:50
  renewal on September 7th,
• 8:52
  I have to get my act
• 8:53
  together and finish it.
• 8:54
  And there's like 10 more modules to do.
• 8:56
  But every time they talk
• 8:57
  about like arches and hollows,
• 8:58
  it makes me want to go back
• 9:00
  to like the basics.
• 9:02
  Cause I feel like,
• 9:03
  like I'm not even doing toes to bar.
• 9:05
  Right.
• 9:06
  in the gymnastics sense.
• 9:12
  So interesting.
• 9:14
  Apparently Jake's
• 9:15
  mother-in-law sounds like a pirate.
• 9:19
  Sounds fun.
• 9:20
  It does sound fun.
• 9:23
  He answers Jay Birch by saying,
• 9:26
  you just wait to hear a voice.
• 9:28
  It's like an extra from a
• 9:29
  Johnny Depp film.
• 9:30
  Okay then.
• 9:33
  All right.
• 9:34
  Definitely got to get her in
• 9:35
  the behind the scenes then.
• 9:36
  Right.
• 9:40
  Did Mark reach out to you?
• 9:41
  Mark Peters?
• 9:42
  He did.
• 9:43
  Okay, cool.
• 9:44
  We're finalizing a time now.
• 9:46
  Good.
• 9:49
  Yeah,
• 9:49
  I have like maybe five for this week
• 9:53
  set up already and a couple
• 9:55
  kind of lingering.
• 9:56
  But like we leave next week,
• 9:58
  like next Tuesday.
• 9:59
  Okay.
• 10:00
  Are you going to ask you,
• 10:01
  what is your mode of transportation?
• 10:03
  Who are you going with?
• 10:03
  What are the details?
• 10:05
  Uh, I'm going with my wife.
• 10:06
  Okay.
• 10:08
  We are driving, um, so that we have a car.
• 10:11
  It can take the equipment, all of that.
• 10:14
  Um,
• 10:16
  and it's like an eight hour trip to
• 10:19
  Birmingham.
• 10:20
  So that's about what we did to Madison.
• 10:23
  Yeah.
• 10:24
  Right.
• 10:24
  Amy.
• 10:25
  Yeah.
• 10:26
  Uh, I'd say a little less to Madison,
• 10:28
  but not, not by much.
• 10:30
  yeah um and then the team is
• 10:33
  caitlyn walters is a
• 10:35
  videographer jonathan
• 10:36
  ortega videographer and
• 10:39
  ellie hiller interviewer
• 10:41
  and then myself and ellie's
• 10:44
  an athlete right she is
• 10:45
  cool but they're gonna have two floors um
• 10:52
  They're going to have two floors, major,
• 10:55
  big size in this convention
• 10:57
  center running at the same time.
• 10:59
  I don't know what that means
• 11:00
  for the stream.
• 11:03
  I know that it's going to
• 11:04
  mean for us splitting up
• 11:05
  into the two sections
• 11:08
  somehow to cover both.
• 11:12
  which is going to be wild
• 11:13
  with four people.
• 11:15
  It's three floor.
• 11:16
  The one floor is smaller
• 11:17
  though than the other two.
• 11:20
  I'm hoping that there's only
• 11:21
  like one or two events there.
• 11:24
  The floater wide.
• 11:28
  Will your wife remind you to
• 11:30
  pack your cords and take your medicine?
• 11:32
  Or do I also need to give
• 11:34
  you those reminders?
• 11:36
  Yes.
• 11:37
  She'll remind me, for sure.
• 11:39
  And then also,
• 11:40
  I think she'll be a lot less
• 11:42
  annoying for you to travel
• 11:43
  with in the car than me.
• 11:45
  But... TVD.
• 11:48
  That's great.
• 11:49
  That's funny.
• 11:54
  Um...
• 12:06
  andrew said three floors two
• 12:07
  for individual one for
• 12:09
  teams so the teams are not
• 12:13
  they're a part of this but
• 12:14
  they're not like sanctioned
• 12:16
  as crossfit games winners
• 12:19
  um so that's going on as
• 12:22
  well during this is what so
• 12:27
  um jake's wife don't
• 12:29
  interview my wife though
• 12:30
  she's a retired olympian very boring
• 12:34
  Sounds like she has no
• 12:35
  stories at all to share.
• 12:36
  No.
• 12:40
  Here's what Andrew said.
• 12:41
  I found it.
• 12:42
  Two floors streamed,
• 12:43
  two floors for individuals,
• 12:44
  one floor for teams.
• 12:50
  Please not an Aussie breakdancer.
• 12:52
  I don't know.
• 12:53
  I found it entertaining, Chelsea.
• 12:57
  They did take breakdancing
• 12:58
  out of the next Olympics, though.
• 12:59
  Do you know what that Aussie
• 13:02
  breakdancer did?
• 13:04
  It made every one of us
• 13:05
  believe we could be an Olympian.
• 13:08
  You're right.
• 13:09
  It gave a lot of us hopes.
• 13:11
  So much hope.
• 13:13
  Yeah.
• 13:13
  I mean, she's like 36.
• 13:14
  I mean, so basically, I mean,
• 13:18
  you could start right now and train.
• 13:23
  My favorite was the dead fish.
• 13:24
  I think I could pull off that move.
• 13:27
  I love all the memes that
• 13:28
  have come out with it since.
• 13:34
  Uh,
• 13:34
  Corey's moving to Australia just to
• 13:36
  become an Olympic break dancer.
• 13:39
  Well, they're taking it out of,
• 13:41
  they're taking it out of
• 13:42
  the Olympics next time.
• 13:43
  So that's not a solid plan.
• 13:46
  Football's getting added.
• 13:49
  Um, okay.
• 13:50
  I like Carolyn's question here.
• 13:51
  What sport do you want to
• 13:52
  see added down the road in Olympics?
• 13:55
  Well,
• 13:56
  I can't believe that pickleball isn't
• 13:58
  there yet, but I bet it will be.
• 14:00
  I mean,
• 14:02
  if you have badminton and ping pong.
• 14:06
  pickleball will be there
• 14:08
  have you seen them play
• 14:09
  badminton and ping pong
• 14:11
  they move more than
• 14:11
  pickleball players
• 14:13
  fascinating I mean and then
• 14:17
  how high they throw the
• 14:19
  ball up to serve or the
• 14:20
  ping pong ball it's crazy I
• 14:24
  i would like to see added
• 14:27
  functional fitness would be interesting
• 14:32
  I mean,
• 14:32
  the IF3 has been trying to do that
• 14:36
  by creating like a
• 14:37
  standardized template to
• 14:41
  make functional fitness an Olympic sport.
• 14:45
  I'd like to see them.
• 14:46
  I know that's the boring answer,
• 14:48
  but it's what I'd like to see.
• 14:49
  And that's led by Gretchen Kittleberger,
• 14:57
  right?
• 14:58
  Mm-hmm.
• 15:03
  So, yeah, that'd be mine.
• 15:07
  Okay.
• 15:10
  Kat, you got one?
• 15:13
  Can't think of one.
• 15:17
  Go ahead.
• 15:19
  Is bocce ball?
• 15:21
  Is bocce ball in the Olympics?
• 15:22
  It probably was at one point in time.
• 15:25
  I like street bocce ball.
• 15:30
  We play it like in the
• 15:30
  neighborhood where it's just like, I mean,
• 15:33
  you can, it's anywhere.
• 15:35
  Yeah.
• 15:36
  Fair game.
• 15:37
  Yeah.
• 15:37
  We call it hillbilly bocce.
• 15:41
  Wherever you can throw the pin.
• 15:43
  Now you got to make it there.
• 15:45
  Yep.
• 15:50
  Chelsea Miller wants bull riding.
• 15:55
  That would be interesting.
• 15:56
  Lots of logistics there.
• 15:57
  Carolyn says,
• 15:58
  need more buy-in from game
• 16:00
  athletes from IF3.
• 16:01
  It needs to be more competitive.
• 16:07
  She's also surprised karate
• 16:09
  isn't in the Olympics.
• 16:10
  Taekwondo and judo are.
• 16:13
  Speaking of school, Carolyn,
• 16:15
  have you started back to school yet?
• 16:18
  I think Friday, she said.
• 16:19
  She does a mid-service day.
• 16:22
  Then everybody's back on
• 16:23
  Tuesday after the holiday.
• 16:24
  Okay.
• 16:24
  Which would actually be next week.
• 16:26
  Yes, next week.
• 16:29
  I watched your show on Sunday night.
• 16:36
  And I actually retained some
• 16:37
  of what I watched.
• 16:38
  Look at that.
• 16:43
  Yeah, I think Charlie wants slap fighting.
• 16:47
  That's what he's talking about.
• 16:49
  Oh, see?
• 16:49
  He just put it in there.
• 16:54
  You are like magnificent.
• 16:58
  Okay.
• 17:04
  Anything else going on with
• 17:05
  you guys before we hit the
• 17:07
  one piece of news that I
• 17:09
  saw that I do want to bring up?
• 17:12
  I just got to take a kid back to college,
• 17:16
  and that's it.
• 17:19
  Yeah, my kids are,
• 17:21
  one of my kids goes to
• 17:22
  college very close to home,
• 17:23
  so it's not like she's even leaving.
• 17:26
  And she technically moved
• 17:27
  into her apartment at the
• 17:28
  beginning of summer,
• 17:29
  just hasn't been sleeping there.
• 17:30
  Yeah.
• 17:31
  And my son went back last week,
• 17:33
  but I think he starts classes next week.
• 17:35
  He's got the most expensive
• 17:37
  apartment known to man,
• 17:39
  one bedroom furnished because he's fancy.
• 17:43
  He's bougie like that?
• 17:44
  And broke.
• 17:45
  So like how he does it, I have no idea.
• 17:47
  I don't know.
• 17:50
  It's annoying.
• 17:52
  But we do have some sad news.
• 17:54
  So I will break my sad news
• 17:55
  just because we should talk about it.
• 17:58
  On July 2nd,
• 17:59
  my golden retriever bumper died suddenly.
• 18:02
  He was nine years old,
• 18:03
  had like a cardiac event,
• 18:06
  tumor out near his heart exploded,
• 18:08
  internal bleeding.
• 18:09
  Like the whole family met at
• 18:11
  the emergency room and we
• 18:12
  had to put him down like within an hour.
• 18:15
  Super shocking.
• 18:16
  The kids were, you know,
• 18:17
  the kids were wrecked
• 18:18
  because he was their dog
• 18:20
  along with the other two
• 18:21
  dogs that they have living with them.
• 18:23
  And now the 13 year old dog
• 18:26
  is on his last legs.
• 18:28
  He collapsed on Sunday.
• 18:29
  I had to go rush home
• 18:31
  because Eliana was by
• 18:32
  herself and figure out what
• 18:33
  was wrong with him.
• 18:35
  He got blood work done yesterday.
• 18:36
  He is bleeding internally somewhere.
• 18:38
  We don't know where.
• 18:40
  He's like on his last,
• 18:42
  like we're on like the
• 18:44
  death watch with him.
• 18:45
  He's either going to, you know,
• 18:47
  he's having these episodes of like,
• 18:50
  wagging his tail playing
• 18:51
  with the toy eating frozen
• 18:53
  broccoli like he loves to
• 18:54
  do going outside and
• 18:54
  everything else and then
• 18:55
  you know and then he'll
• 18:56
  like lie down for 10 hours
• 18:57
  and we're just like
• 18:58
  watching him so um yeah it
• 19:01
  sucks um so we we will
• 19:04
  probably in the next week
• 19:05
  or two be down to jojo the
• 19:07
  one crazy dog that lives uh
• 19:09
  at my ex-husband's house
• 19:10
  and then the sheepadoodle
• 19:12
  that I have here that lives with me so
• 19:15
  went from four to two really fast.
• 19:17
  And it sucks.
• 19:18
  How close did you get those two dogs?
• 19:22
  Were they like,
• 19:22
  did you get them around the same time?
• 19:23
  We got them four years apart.
• 19:25
  So we had a golden retriever when,
• 19:28
  when we got dash and then
• 19:30
  that golden retriever died
• 19:31
  at the age of eight from
• 19:32
  some crazy cancer.
• 19:34
  And then dash, um, when dash was four,
• 19:36
  we got bumper.
• 19:38
  And then when bumper was four,
• 19:39
  we got Jojo.
• 19:40
  So it was like every four
• 19:41
  years we've gotten a dog.
• 19:43
  Um,
• 19:44
  And so when bumper died, like we were, we,
• 19:46
  we were expecting dash to
• 19:47
  die for dash is 13 bumper was nine.
• 19:50
  So they're obviously like
• 19:52
  four years apart.
• 19:53
  So yeah, they grew up together.
• 19:54
  So, uh,
• 19:56
  we've had dash ever since Eliana was,
• 19:58
  you know, a baby she's she's 19.
• 20:00
  Now she was like five when we,
• 20:02
  when we got her.
• 20:02
  So, and he's like the grumpy old man,
• 20:05
  Scott, you met him.
• 20:06
  He's like a terrier.
• 20:07
  He's all kind of disheveled.
• 20:08
  And on Friday I went to the
• 20:10
  house and I gave him a haircut.
• 20:12
  And I did so badly because
• 20:17
  the attachment that I used
• 20:18
  was like too short.
• 20:19
  And so he's got that hair
• 20:21
  that is like blonde at the
• 20:22
  base and black at the tip.
• 20:24
  And so if you don't cut it
• 20:25
  completely evenly,
• 20:26
  he looks like eight different colors.
• 20:28
  And I swear he looks homeless.
• 20:31
  Like he looks like he got
• 20:32
  ran over by a car,
• 20:33
  like just looking at him, his sides,
• 20:35
  he's got all these spots on
• 20:36
  them of like black and blonde hair.
• 20:38
  because I totally butchered
• 20:39
  his haircut and it was just on Friday.
• 20:40
  And then Sunday this happened.
• 20:42
  I was like,
• 20:44
  he's not even going to look
• 20:44
  cute for his last little few days.
• 20:48
  But yeah, everybody's really sad.
• 20:49
  It just sucks.
• 20:50
  Totally.
• 20:50
  I'm sorry.
• 20:53
  Well, thanks for bringing the show down.
• 20:56
  I'm sorry.
• 20:57
  I had to talk about it.
• 20:58
  It was on my heart.
• 20:58
  No, no.
• 21:00
  I know what they, what they mean to you.
• 21:02
  So.
• 21:04
  Yep.
• 21:07
  um corey with a joke uh so
• 21:10
  he looks like a boy band
• 21:11
  member for us exactly corey
• 21:15
  likes corey gets
• 21:16
  uncomfortable and makes
• 21:17
  jokes I think that's what
• 21:18
  it is I will post uh I'll
• 21:20
  post the video that eliana
• 21:22
  sent me last night of him
• 21:23
  playing with his squeaky
• 21:24
  toy on my instagram you can
• 21:25
  see what he looks like yeah
• 21:28
  it looks like spock yeah
• 21:32
  how long have you been
• 21:33
  doing this you have to read
• 21:35
  the comment out loud
• 21:37
  Oh, sorry.
• 21:37
  Shaming us on the podcast.
• 21:40
  I think it's unclear who's
• 21:42
  pressing the buttons too.
• 21:42
  I think that's why I was
• 21:43
  like waiting for someone
• 21:44
  maybe to else to do that.
• 21:45
  But I know I I'm allowed to
• 21:46
  do that too if I want.
• 21:47
  So I'll start doing that.
• 21:48
  Jake said, I cut my son's hair.
• 21:50
  Either it looks like Spock
• 21:52
  or Dave Hill from Slade.
• 21:54
  Slade is a metal band from Europe, right?
• 22:01
  See,
• 22:01
  you shouldn't eat broccoli or green
• 22:02
  things.
• 22:03
  Yeah.
• 22:04
  That's what Charlie said.
• 22:05
  Dash eats frozen broccoli.
• 22:06
  That's like his favorite
• 22:07
  thing in the world.
• 22:07
  You open up the freezer and
• 22:08
  he goes berserk.
• 22:12
  What was it?
• 22:15
  Yeah, from the 70s.
• 22:16
  I thought so.
• 22:19
  And then I cut Leia's hair
• 22:20
  over the weekend,
• 22:21
  but she's all matted on her legs,
• 22:23
  but not on her back.
• 22:24
  So I just cut kind of like
• 22:25
  her legs and her shoulder
• 22:26
  blades and blended the rest.
• 22:27
  And she looks like a
• 22:28
  character from CatDog.
• 22:31
  Like,
• 22:31
  I don't know if you guys know that
• 22:32
  cartoon, but she's super fluffy,
• 22:34
  like everywhere around her shoulders.
• 22:35
  And then she's got these
• 22:36
  tiny little stick legs.
• 22:39
  She looks ridiculous.
• 22:43
  All right.
• 22:43
  So one piece of CrossFit
• 22:45
  news we're going to talk about.
• 22:46
  What do you got?
• 22:49
  And that is,
• 22:49
  it went around our group chat.
• 22:52
  It is that CrossFit
• 22:55
  announced that they are
• 22:55
  doing a third-party investigation.
• 22:58
  And...
• 22:59
  John Woolley,
• 23:00
  who I think is trying to
• 23:02
  become the new Andrew Hiller,
• 23:06
  is getting very expose-ish
• 23:11
  with his Instagram and his YouTube,
• 23:14
  where he is commenting on
• 23:16
  what he sees wrong in the space.
• 23:19
  And he makes an excellent
• 23:20
  point with this one.
• 23:21
  He does.
• 23:22
  It's a very good point.
• 23:24
  So I'm going to share this.
• 23:27
  And hopefully I have it
• 23:28
  pretty much at the beginning.
• 23:33
  And I'll go ahead and play it around.
• 23:37
  Mr. Edge is this for me.
• 23:39
  He's worked the bulk of his
• 23:41
  career for the department
• 23:42
  of Homeland security and
• 23:43
  ice as a deputy director,
• 23:45
  the U S border patrol is
• 23:47
  the largest department in
• 23:48
  the department of Homeland security.
• 23:50
  again, where he was the director.
• 23:52
  This is notable because the
• 23:54
  United States border patrol
• 23:55
  has been a sponsor of the
• 23:56
  CrossFit games for the past two years.
• 23:59
  I mentioned earlier that a
• 24:00
  third party review needs to
• 24:01
  be above approach and unimpeachable.
• 24:04
  And the guy running the
• 24:05
  investigation has direct
• 24:06
  ties and relationships with the sponsor.
• 24:09
  Now,
• 24:10
  Does that make him unqualified or biased?
• 24:12
  No, not necessarily.
• 24:14
  Again, I don't know him.
• 24:15
  He may be the most honest
• 24:16
  person on the planet,
• 24:18
  but out of the hundreds of
• 24:19
  people in firms,
• 24:20
  you could have gotten to run this.
• 24:22
  You chose someone who is
• 24:23
  connected to CrossFit through a sponsor,
• 24:27
  and that raises a lot of eyebrows for me.
• 24:30
  You get the gist.
• 24:33
  Yeah.
• 24:34
  Go ahead.
• 24:36
  My initial reaction was,
• 24:39
  why can't you guys get out
• 24:41
  of your own way?
• 24:43
  Yeah.
• 24:48
  Yep.
• 24:48
  Why not consult with PFAA
• 24:51
  about... This has nothing
• 24:55
  to do with PFAA.
• 24:56
  Well, I know in his long one,
• 24:58
  he talks about that.
• 25:01
  They weren't consulted about,
• 25:03
  I'm just saying that would
• 25:03
  have been a good start to
• 25:04
  consult together about
• 25:07
  where it should like, okay,
• 25:10
  CrossFit looks, you know,
• 25:12
  maybe throw some names in the hat.
• 25:14
  Maybe PFAA does too.
• 25:15
  And then maybe they come to
• 25:17
  an agreed upon group that's
• 25:19
  going to do that investigation.
• 25:21
  Well,
• 25:21
  you think the investment firm that
• 25:23
  owns CrossFit would be able to provide
• 25:26
  lots of names of people to
• 25:28
  do an independent
• 25:29
  investigation that don't
• 25:30
  even know anything about CrossFit, right?
• 25:32
  I mean, that's kind of what you want,
• 25:33
  I would think.
• 25:37
  So this part of the thing I
• 25:39
  kind of agree with, with John, the PFAA,
• 25:42
  one I'm less inclined to believe,
• 25:44
  the PFAA is an association.
• 25:46
  It's not a union.
• 25:48
  they do not have an existing
• 25:50
  relationship or a
• 25:50
  contractual anything for
• 25:53
  them to go to them in this case.
• 25:56
  But my God can't how, like you said,
• 25:59
  there are hundreds of firms
• 26:01
  that you can choose from to
• 26:03
  get one guy that has no
• 26:05
  connection to what you do.
• 26:07
  And this is what you pick.
• 26:11
  Yeah.
• 26:14
  It's almost as if somebody
• 26:15
  came forward and said like, I'll do it.
• 26:20
  Here are my credentials.
• 26:22
  If you're a good company,
• 26:23
  and at this point,
• 26:25
  we're not talking about CrossFit HQ.
• 26:28
  We're talking about Berkshire,
• 26:31
  whoever's running the show
• 26:34
  from the investment firm.
• 26:40
  I have zero confidence going
• 26:42
  forward that these people
• 26:43
  can do anything when this
• 26:45
  is the stuff that they're doing now.
• 26:50
  I get what he was saying
• 26:51
  with the PFAA in the longer
• 26:53
  version of this if it was a union.
• 26:57
  But people have to remember the PFA,
• 27:00
  they could not get enough
• 27:02
  athletes to band together
• 27:04
  to make it a union, to stand up together.
• 27:07
  And that is the most
• 27:08
  difficult part of a sport
• 27:10
  that is more individual
• 27:12
  based than a team sport.
• 27:17
  That's why tennis and golf
• 27:19
  took longer to unionize
• 27:21
  than like football and baseball.
• 27:24
  That's interesting.
• 27:31
  Now, could you in good faith say, Hey,
• 27:34
  we want to take a
• 27:34
  collection of athletes and say,
• 27:37
  we want to do a third party
• 27:38
  investigation and want your input.
• 27:42
  Sure.
• 27:44
  That's what I'm saying.
• 27:45
  Then just involve the PFAA.
• 27:47
  Or oversight.
• 27:51
  I just think it would have
• 27:52
  been a good move for a lot of reasons.
• 28:01
  Who am I?
• 28:02
  I'm just a preschool teacher
• 28:03
  that's talking on a Clydesdale podcast.
• 28:09
  You have as much authority
• 28:11
  as anybody else who's talking right now.
• 28:17
  I just... I'm having a real
• 28:20
  hard problem with the PFAA right now.
• 28:22
  And I haven't said any of that publicly.
• 28:27
  Because I want to see more
• 28:28
  facts before I talk even more.
• 28:30
  But I did talk Sunday night
• 28:32
  about there's a lack of
• 28:33
  authenticity with some
• 28:34
  things going on that's really bugging me.
• 28:38
  And...
• 28:44
  i think that there's a an
• 28:45
  agenda push in a direction
• 28:48
  based on things that aren't
• 28:51
  related to a man's death
• 28:52
  but you're using his death
• 28:53
  to do it and I think that
• 28:59
  sucks I think the first
• 29:07
  thing you have to do is
• 29:08
  solve the problem of the
• 29:09
  man's death then once we do
• 29:11
  that then we can move on to
• 29:12
  the other stuff
• 29:16
  Yeah.
• 29:18
  But as is being said in the chat, you know,
• 29:21
  there were no concerns
• 29:22
  brought up about run swim.
• 29:26
  And for then for you to and
• 29:33
  then for you to use that
• 29:35
  and say there have been
• 29:36
  complaints forever and blah, blah, blah.
• 29:39
  Like, yeah.
• 29:46
  But again,
• 29:46
  I want more facts before I go
• 29:52
  too far into it.
• 29:53
  Yeah.
• 29:54
  OK.
• 29:54
  Yeah.
• 29:56
  Yeah, I find it's really hard to,
• 29:58
  it's even hard to process
• 30:00
  it all without knowing
• 30:01
  exactly what's going on.
• 30:03
  Like,
• 30:03
  it's hard to know how you're supposed
• 30:05
  to feel.
• 30:06
  And I think there's so many
• 30:07
  voices in our space that
• 30:09
  are taking stands.
• 30:12
  And I don't think that's wrong.
• 30:13
  Like, that's cool.
• 30:15
  with me, um,
• 30:17
  I just tend to be someone
• 30:18
  who's highly influenced by
• 30:20
  things that I hear and people that I see,
• 30:23
  especially people that I
• 30:23
  respect and care for and
• 30:25
  things like that.
• 30:26
  So I'm just, it's,
• 30:27
  I'm still struggling with
• 30:28
  all of it to sort of process it all.
• 30:31
  Not quite sure how I feel about, you know,
• 30:34
  the surrounding circumstances, obviously,
• 30:37
  you know, Lazar's death is,
• 30:38
  is the easy one to feel a
• 30:40
  certain way about,
• 30:42
  but it's just so complex.
• 30:46
  And I hear viewpoints from
• 30:48
  people that I didn't think
• 30:49
  of necessarily.
• 30:50
  And I'm thinking, oh, okay, well, yeah,
• 30:52
  I get it.
• 30:53
  You know,
• 30:53
  and then I hear something else
• 30:54
  that's completely to the
• 30:55
  contrary of what I just heard,
• 30:56
  where I said I get it.
• 30:57
  And I'm like, yeah, okay, I get it.
• 30:59
  It's just, it's hard for me to, I don't,
• 31:01
  I feel like I'm all over
• 31:02
  the place with my thoughts
• 31:04
  and feelings about it.
• 31:05
  Well,
• 31:05
  that's natural when there are no facts.
• 31:07
  Right.
• 31:08
  Well,
• 31:08
  I think that's what I was getting at.
• 31:10
  Like,
• 31:10
  it's really hard to say because it
• 31:12
  kind of, it's one of those things like,
• 31:14
  how do you feel?
• 31:14
  Well, it depends.
• 31:16
  You know, it depends.
• 31:18
  Yeah.
• 31:18
  And I don't know what it
• 31:19
  depends on yet because I
• 31:20
  don't know what that is, but it depends.
• 31:22
  Yeah.
• 31:23
  Yeah.
• 31:24
  So I just,
• 31:25
  I hope and pray that local
• 31:27
  authorities give us more
• 31:29
  facts because now after John put this out,
• 31:33
  I don't trust the third
• 31:34
  party investigation.
• 31:37
  Right.
• 31:42
  Right.
• 31:42
  And a man, an acquaintance of ours died.
• 31:48
  Right.
• 31:49
  And I was very sad about that.
• 31:52
  And it has lingered on for a week.
• 31:57
  And it's going to keep
• 31:58
  lingering on until we get
• 32:01
  some facts about what
• 32:02
  happened and some kind of
• 32:05
  resolution as to correcting
• 32:07
  whatever it was that caused that.
• 32:10
  If there isn't.
• 32:12
  But at least we'll know
• 32:13
  there was no resolution.
• 32:15
  Either way.
• 32:15
  Okay.
• 32:18
  And so, like,
• 32:19
  I think for us as a community to move on,
• 32:22
  we need facts and answers.
• 32:24
  And the problem is we just
• 32:25
  don't have any of them right now.
• 32:27
  Yeah.
• 32:28
  Yeah.
• 32:28
  You can't get closure is not
• 32:31
  the right word,
• 32:31
  but you can't get clarity
• 32:32
  around it when when there
• 32:34
  is no clarity around it.
• 32:38
  Right.
• 32:38
  Mm hmm.
• 32:41
  because you want to be mad.
• 32:42
  You want to be sad.
• 32:43
  You want to do all these
• 32:45
  things and you can't do any of it.
• 32:47
  You have no idea where to point it to.
• 33:00
  So I have a lot to say about
• 33:02
  a lot of things,
• 33:02
  but I want facts to come
• 33:03
  out before I say them.
• 33:06
  Yeah.
• 33:08
  Yeah.
• 33:08
  And that's hard too,
• 33:09
  because we like to talk about things.
• 33:11
  That's what we do.
• 33:12
  Very hard not to talk.
• 33:14
  Yeah.
• 33:15
  But I think that that is the
• 33:16
  best way to handle it right now.
• 33:19
  Yeah.
• 33:19
  Because I mean, even,
• 33:20
  even today we're struggling
• 33:21
  for like content.
• 33:22
  It's like, so what's going on?
• 33:24
  Like, oh, well, my dog is sick.
• 33:26
  Like,
• 33:27
  I don't want to backtrack what I said
• 33:29
  a week ago, like spend done.
• 33:32
  Right.
• 33:32
  Come out and all of a sudden, woo.
• 33:34
  Well, I didn't really mean that.
• 33:36
  I meant this.
• 33:38
  Sure.
• 33:40
  Yeah, it's hard.
• 33:41
  I mean,
• 33:41
  I will say that I've been paying a
• 33:43
  lot more attention to
• 33:44
  Instagram and YouTube than
• 33:46
  I was a month ago.
• 33:48
  I've paid less attention.
• 33:50
  I agree.
• 33:50
  I've actually really tried
• 33:52
  to be not involved in it
• 33:54
  because of what you're saying earlier.
• 33:55
  I feel like it's influencing
• 33:57
  my feelings on things,
• 34:00
  and I don't want it to
• 34:01
  because I want to know more.
• 34:03
  you know, more facts.
• 34:05
  Yeah.
• 34:05
  Yeah.
• 34:06
  And I think for me, it's just,
• 34:07
  I'm searching for information.
• 34:08
  I get that.
• 34:09
  And it's not like, yeah,
• 34:11
  it's not the information that I,
• 34:12
  that I need or want necessarily, but it's,
• 34:14
  I also think it's, you know,
• 34:15
  I hadn't really been too
• 34:17
  involved in the space prior
• 34:18
  to me going to the games
• 34:19
  and knowing I was going to the games,
• 34:20
  I sort of started to get back into it,
• 34:22
  you know, and, and now, you know,
• 34:24
  as a true diehard that I am like,
• 34:27
  I'm in it, I'm back in it.
• 34:29
  Yeah.
• 34:29
  Yeah.
• 34:31
  So I want to leave with just
• 34:32
  two quick things.
• 34:32
  And that is,
• 34:35
  One of the byproducts of
• 34:38
  this whole thing is that I
• 34:40
  took some of the best
• 34:41
  pictures I've ever taken in my life.
• 34:44
  And I don't feel like I can
• 34:46
  post any of them.
• 34:47
  Right?
• 34:50
  So what I've kind of done in
• 34:51
  the background is...
• 34:53
  I've contacted athletes that
• 34:54
  are friends of mine and I've said,
• 34:55
  you know what?
• 34:57
  They're yours.
• 34:58
  I'm just going to,
• 34:59
  I'll edit them and you can
• 35:01
  have them no cost, no nothing.
• 35:04
  But,
• 35:05
  and then if you feel okay with doing
• 35:07
  that or not, that's your choice.
• 35:11
  But I just didn't want them
• 35:13
  to go to waste.
• 35:14
  Yeah.
• 35:16
  Um, but then I would,
• 35:19
  so one of those people is Bethany.
• 35:21
  Yeah.
• 35:21
  Um,
• 35:23
  And after talking to her,
• 35:25
  I went and looked at her YouTube,
• 35:28
  which part one at the games.
• 35:31
  If you have not watched that.
• 35:32
  Okay.
• 35:34
  It is one of the most
• 35:35
  beautiful pieces of content
• 35:38
  in such a lovely tribute to Lazar.
• 35:42
  I highly recommend it.
• 35:45
  Caught a cat.
• 35:46
  It is real.
• 35:47
  It is raw.
• 35:49
  Like have a box of tissues beside you.
• 35:51
  I know.
• 35:53
  But that's just part one,
• 35:53
  part two still to come.
• 35:57
  Um, it is, it is really,
• 36:00
  I'm like tearing up just
• 36:01
  thinking about it because
• 36:04
  she was in the ice tub when
• 36:06
  the search started and the
• 36:09
  video captures like her
• 36:11
  reaction to it all.
• 36:13
  Oh, wow.
• 36:14
  That's raw.
• 36:17
  I have a funny Lazar story.
• 36:18
  Can I,
• 36:18
  I want to try to bring one up once a
• 36:20
  week as we, as we meet.
• 36:22
  Um,
• 36:22
  so I was going through my DMS again
• 36:24
  from Instagram and I don't
• 36:26
  know if you guys remember, but the,
• 36:28
  one of the times that we
• 36:29
  had him on prior to the games,
• 36:31
  he was also going on the seven podcasts.
• 36:34
  And it was like the same day or like maybe,
• 36:37
  you know,
• 36:37
  hours later or something like that.
• 36:39
  And I was sort of giving him
• 36:40
  shit about it.
• 36:42
  And I said something like, you know, well,
• 36:44
  ours is better than Savant's podcast.
• 36:48
  And he said, he said something like, oh,
• 36:50
  it's so hard.
• 36:51
  It's like picking your favorite child.
• 36:53
  He's like, you both are awesome.
• 36:56
  Yeah.
• 37:00
  And I,
• 37:00
  I screenshot and I sent a seven too.
• 37:02
  Cause I, you know, it was just funny.
• 37:03
  He was like, Oh, thanks.
• 37:04
  That was cool.
• 37:05
  Yeah.
• 37:08
  I could just hear him in his voice too.
• 37:09
  Like saying it, you know,
• 37:10
  if he was speaking it.
• 37:11
  Yeah.
• 37:12
  I can't pick, pick your favorite child.
• 37:15
  Yeah.
• 37:16
  Oh, I love that.
• 37:18
  My lap.
• 37:19
  Well, I'll do a memory too.
• 37:20
  I can't remember talking to
• 37:21
  him where he wasn't
• 37:22
  laughing while he was talking.
• 37:24
  Yeah.
• 37:25
  The only time I can.
• 37:27
  Yeah.
• 37:27
  A giggle.
• 37:28
  The only time I can remember
• 37:30
  is when I was in the pit
• 37:31
  and he was getting no rep
• 37:33
  on his facing handstand pushups.
• 37:37
  And he was so mad and
• 37:39
  spitting on his judge,
• 37:41
  not like intentionally spitting,
• 37:43
  but screaming so loud,
• 37:44
  like stuff is coming out at his judge.
• 37:49
  And, uh,
• 37:51
  But that showed, like, that he could be,
• 37:54
  he was funny and giggly and
• 37:56
  all that all the time.
• 37:58
  But when it came to, like,
• 37:59
  getting on the floor and going, like,
• 38:01
  it meant so much to him.
• 38:03
  It's because he was a passionate person.
• 38:05
  I mean, yeah.
• 38:06
  That's what you get.
• 38:07
  In all the things.
• 38:08
  Yeah, right.
• 38:08
  In all the things.
• 38:09
  Yeah, he's a competitor.
• 38:12
  Yeah.
• 38:14
  Yeah, I probably,
• 38:14
  I was taking pictures at the time.
• 38:17
  So I need to go back to that
• 38:19
  year and see if I can find those.
• 38:21
  I need to go back and see if
• 38:22
  I have any video.
• 38:23
  So yeah,
• 38:24
  that's what I reposted it the other day.
• 38:28
  because I had forgotten I
• 38:29
  had taken that picture.
• 38:31
  And then I saw that somebody
• 38:32
  liked a photo and I was like from 2021,
• 38:34
  what the heck?
• 38:35
  And I go and I look,
• 38:36
  so somebody must've just
• 38:37
  looked up Lazar or whatever.
• 38:39
  This reminded me.
• 38:40
  And I remember taking that
• 38:41
  picture and he was walking off the,
• 38:43
  the Coliseum and we were like, great job.
• 38:46
  And he like smiled and waved at us.
• 38:48
  And I was like, yeah.
• 38:49
  Yeah.
• 38:49
  I mean that he was,
• 38:50
  he was looking at us when
• 38:51
  you took that picture.
• 38:52
  It wasn't like he was.
• 38:54
  Yeah.
• 38:54
  That's cool.
• 38:55
  Well,
• 38:55
  that's the same year he was doing
• 38:56
  pull-ups off the railing.
• 38:58
  Yes.
• 38:58
  Right in front of you guys.
• 39:00
  Yeah.
• 39:00
  Right.
• 39:02
  Did I make it?
• 39:05
  Did I make it?
• 39:08
  Awesome.

  We got to keep that going.
• 39:11
  Yep.
