1:48
My second plane was a little delayed.
1:50

my house at like twelve thirty,
1:53

1:55
So like one thirty your time.
1:56
No, I left Green Earth.

If you didn't watch last night's show...
2:32

2:32
Jamie lost her shit last night.
2:36
Really?
2:36
I find that so hard to believe.
2:38
She's usually so calm and level-headed.
2:41
She went off last night.
2:47
Toledo said,
2:48
thoroughly enjoyed Jamie's bit.
2:52
Should I take a guess?
2:55
The only thing I'm upset about,
2:57
she didn't warn me.
2:58
I didn't get to hit the riff alert
2:59
for her.
3:00
because there was a point where i was
3:03
like do i even need to be here
3:05
right yeah i'll just look like just hand
3:08
over the reins let her go just sit
3:13

3:26
Yeah.
3:26
She, it was great stuff.
3:29
Yeah.
3:30
She,
3:30
she did not hold back last night at
3:32
all.
3:33
And people have said like, Oh,
3:35
I know that she never holds back.
3:36
Oh, she does.
3:38
Yeah.
3:39
You guys only knew how much she holds
3:41
back last night.
3:43
All the, all the handcuffs were gone.
3:47
Good for her dude.
3:48
Like let it out.
3:50
Say what you got to say.
3:53
What's create?
3:54
I'm not, I'm not getting into that today.
3:56
Nevermind.
3:57
I'm just going with that pass.
3:59
I need to go back and look.
4:00
I need to go back and look.
4:01
Yeah.
4:02
Tristan knows.
4:03
Look.
4:04
Oh, she holds back.
4:05
Yeah.
4:06
If you know Jamie personally,
4:08
what she says on air is held back
4:11
version of reality.
4:13
She has a, she has a,
4:15
what's the word I'm looking for?
4:16
Decorum.
4:18
On air.
4:19
On air.
4:20
If you talk to her, like,
4:22
I got her phone number.
4:23
I heard I have texted because you don't
4:25
call her.
4:25
Don't call Jane.
4:26
She will not answer.
4:27
She's not going to answer the phone.
4:29
Someone better be dying.
4:30
Yeah.
4:31
Somebody.
4:31
Yeah.
4:31
Are you on fire?
4:32
Like,
4:33
that's going to be probably what she's
4:35
going to answer.
4:36
But anyway, yeah, she does not hold back.
4:40
Her and I have had several different
4:41
conversations going back and forth via
4:43
text.
4:46
She's not scared to tell you what she
4:47
thinks.
4:49
No.
4:50
But anyway,
4:51
if you want to see her just lose
4:54
her mind, last night's show was it.
4:59
And she,
5:00
and Mark says she's speaking for the
5:01
people and truly like she was like,
5:06
if just so you guys know,
5:09
there were a lot of masters athletes that
5:11
wanted her to speak out.
5:14
Yeah.
5:14
And so last night was taking all of
5:16
that.
5:19
on for the masters community and kind of
5:22
let it go good i am going to
5:25
go watch that as soon as we get
5:26
done so um before we have you too
5:30
much you got we got a time stamp
5:32
on that somewhere i mean is it like
5:34
five minutes in is it twenty minutes in
5:35
is it well the first the first half
5:38
of the show is masters and it's like
5:39
a week so it opens up with us
5:41
celebrating um
5:46
carolyn yes celebrating carolyn sorry i'm
5:49
trying to read the comments and do this
5:51
show at the same time and sometimes the
5:53
brain just stops i understand um it starts
5:57
with celebrating carolyn and her and her
5:59
win and updating people on jamie's arm and
6:02
she kept showing the cut with the flex
6:06
yeah hundred percent and then we get in
6:09
look at that cut on my arm about
6:11
the masters games first yep
6:16
And then the shit sandwich came out after.
6:18
I'm excited.
6:23
And so that was before any of the
6:24
elite talk.
6:25
It was so it's not far in.
6:29
Good.
6:29
Perfect.
6:32
Andrew Sten says the whole show, Corey.
6:35
You got it.
6:36
He was trying to defend legends last night
6:38
as he should as being a part of
6:42
legends.
6:42
And I respect that.
6:45
But it doesn't mean I have to agree
6:46
with everything.
6:48
Meg is dogging my shirt again.
6:51
But speaking of shirts,
6:52
speaking of shirts, we have them for sale.
7:00
Ba-bam.
7:01
Look at that lovely graphic made by Vicky.
7:05
She did a fantastic job, dude.
7:07

7:09
So there's the shirt.
7:11
There's Cash App and Venmo options.
7:15
Go ahead and use those to pay the

7:42
Unless you just want to give us thirty
7:44

7:47
The Venmo and cash app open for any

please so i can get it get them
8:23
out to you um yeah thank you meg
8:28
for the segue of course but speaking of
8:30
the bears the bears uh one the highlight
8:35
from the weekend that i did not get
8:36
to talk about
8:37
is you know tyson bajan signed a football
8:41
had jason hopper signed the football and
8:44
then he chucked it into the crowd i
8:47
did not know that that's awesome and yeah
8:51
because they didn't televise the opening
8:52
ceremonies yeah i'm well aware huge miss
8:56
huge miss right yeah um tyson when he
9:02
threw it into the crowd he could have
9:04
went first couple rows right
9:07
He could have went lower bowl.
9:10
He could have went loge box.
9:12
Nah.
9:14
That dude chucked it from mid-ice,
9:18
where it would be in the SAP Center,
9:20
to the upper deck.
9:22
Let's go.
9:24
It's a ten million dollar arm right there,
9:26
baby.
9:26
That's my guy.
9:29
That's my guy.
9:30
That's a ten million dollar arm.
9:31
He ain't about to just,
9:32
he's not about to half-ass it.
9:34
Like, he's a professional.
9:35
He'll do some professional type stuff.
9:38
It was an impressive throw, man.
9:41
Like,
9:42
I've seen a lot of people chuck a
9:43
ball and do that.
9:46
It was impressive.
9:48
And so, what Shannon's saying right there,
9:50
like, glad he went far back.
9:51
Those people don't get much swag thrown at
9:53
them.
9:53
No, because most people can't.
9:55
Yeah.
9:56
Yeah.
9:57
Even if you have a taco cannon, right?
10:01
T-shirt cannon people,
10:03
like even the people in the upper deck,
10:04
you just kind of sitting there just hoping
10:06
that maybe they'll think about looking up
10:08
instead of just at the stuff right there
10:10
in front of them, you know,
10:12
at any sporting event, much less the game.
10:14
So good on him for saying,
10:15
you know what?
10:16
Watch this.
10:16
We're going to let these people in the
10:18
upper deck fight about this football.
10:21
Yeah, it was awesome.
10:24
Shannon's right.
10:25
was cool that someone in the upper deck
10:27
got got the ball big fan uh i
10:32
agree joseph not showing greg in the
10:34
hopper was a big miss for crossfit uh
10:36
that was full circle moment that was
10:38
missed and you didn't get to see any
10:40
sakamoto and her daughter pull the balls
10:42
out you didn't get to see uh the
10:44
legends the champions introduced man i got
10:49
katie henniger looks like she's been
10:53
working out again
10:55
She looks like she's about to sign up
10:56
for the Masters division.
10:59
Oh, if she does,
11:00
everybody that's in her age group should
11:02
be frightened.
11:03
Well, especially if they put a row.
11:05
Because she tested all the rowers.
11:11
I think Joseph said he asked her if
11:14
she did a thousand on all of them
11:15
again.
11:15
She's like, no, just a hundred this time.
11:17
Yeah.
11:19
Well, just so you know,
11:20
I did take video of the hopper.
11:23
So I do have it.
11:25
Maybe tomorrow I could put it up and
11:28
you guys could see what went down.
11:30
I don't think it breaks any broadcasting
11:33
agreement because I'm not live streaming
11:35
it.
11:36
I don't see where it would be a
11:39
problem at this point.
11:40
Worst you're going to get is a C&D.
11:41
How dare you put up a picture of
11:45
Greg in a giant hopper.
11:50
Katie is a unit.
11:52
Katie's always been a unit.
11:55
Again, I live in Columbus, her hometown,
11:58
where she was a superstar with the Ohio
12:00
State University.
12:01
Her jersey is hanging in the rafters at
12:05
the Schottenstein Center.
12:10
It is what it is.
12:15
Outstanding.
12:16
We may show you some tonight,
12:17
but you'll have to tune in and see.
12:20
Look at Joseph Ramirez turning Mr.
12:22
Media guy with the teaser.
12:24
Look, he's out there taking pictures.
12:26
He's executive producer for the Glitten
12:29
Things podcast, putting out that teaser.
12:32
We may show you something tonight,
12:33
but you'll have to tune in.
12:35
We may not, too,
12:36
but the only way you'll really know
12:41
As if you tune in.
12:42
Hey, five-thirty Eastern,
12:43
four-thirty Central Time,
12:45
Glint and Things podcast on the Glint and
12:47
Things channel.
12:47
Go check it out.
12:49
I love the Glint and Things podcast.
12:51
I love being their friend now.
12:54
Every time I go on there,
12:55
we laugh more than we do anything else.
12:58
It's so much fun.
12:59
I love everything about it except for it's
13:01
start time is my dinner time with my
13:04
wife.
13:05
So it's start time is usually when I'm
13:09
just about to leave here.
13:12
So like if I want to jump on,
13:14
so I can listen, right?
13:15
I'll put it on in a Jeep and
13:16
just have it playing.
13:17
I'll listen to it on the way either
13:19
to the gym or back to the house.
13:21
But if I want to jump on with
13:22
them,
13:23
like now I'm in the Jeep and my
13:25
sound has been notoriously terrible while
13:27
it's in there.
13:27
So it always sucks because it's,
13:29
but I mean, it is what it is.
13:32
then i'll watch it as i'm getting ready
13:35
for bed and then i want to comment
13:39
but i can't because it's memorex but you
13:44
can always leave a comment for the
13:46
algorithm i could but anyway i digress um
13:54
Yesterday we talked a ton about Amy
13:56
Kringle and her dominating performance,
13:59
and I felt like we left James Sprague
14:01
out a bit.
14:01
We kind of skipped right over James.
14:05
So I wanted to just give some flowers
14:07
to James Sprague and the performance he
14:09
put on this weekend as well.
14:11
Going into the games,
14:12
there were people predicting that the
14:13
leaders' jersey was going to change
14:16
multiple times through the weekend.
14:18
Yeah.
14:19
That did not happen.
14:20
No.
14:23
James got out to a lead,
14:25
and then he never had a big hole.
14:27
Just like Amy,
14:28
never had a big hole that allowed people
14:33
back in the race.
14:35
And by the end of the weekend,
14:37
Dallin was the only person that even had
14:38
a shot remotely to compete with him.
14:42
Yeah, but in the race,
14:42
it was a two-horse race.
14:44
Just him and Dallin.
14:48
And the storyline that came from that
14:51
with...
14:54
James and Dallin being coached by the same
14:57
coach under the same camp best friends
15:02
friends for a long time podcasters
15:04
together really was a cool storyline yeah
15:10
I like the you know
15:13
Dallin still cheering for James,
15:16
kind of egging him on after he got
15:19
done with the echo press thing.
15:21
Like, you don't get that in other sports,
15:25
right?
15:26
Like, it just doesn't happen.
15:28
If you're a wide receiver for the Bears
15:30
and you're playing the Vikings,
15:32
you're not on the sidelines while the
15:33
defense is up there and be like, oh,
15:35
we're doing really good.
15:36
Yeah.
15:36
Yeah.
15:39
It's just not a thing that happens, man.
15:40
So, yeah.
15:42
it's fun to be able to see stuff
15:43
like that um james put on a hell
15:47
of a performance right and we never said
15:50
it the whole asterisk thing but like if
15:53
you needed more proof that he is the
15:55
real deal he just won again in addition
15:59
to getting on the podium last year can
16:01
i address the asterisk thing again please
16:04
please asterisks are stupid i agree so
16:09
I was on with the Glintons and Jeremy
16:10
was trying to talk to me about Asterix,
16:13
right?
16:14
Yeah.
16:15
You are given a test.
16:17
You complete the test and you are the
16:19
winner or the loser for that year.
16:21
right?
16:22
It doesn't matter what the test doesn't
16:23
matter about anything else that happened.
16:26
You overcame whatever was thrown at you.
16:29
A man died.
16:30
Yeah.
16:31
That threw a factor into who was going
16:33
to win that.
16:35
And they had to overcome other things in
16:37
addition to just the workouts and things
16:40
like that.
16:40
So I don't think it deserves an asterisk.
16:43
Now, if you're talking legacy,
16:47
In your mind, you can factor in, well,
16:49
twenty twenty four didn't have a full
16:51
field in twenty twenty four, blah, blah,
16:52
blah.
16:53
I'm OK with that as a debate for
16:56
legacy in all time.
16:58
But the season itself shouldn't be given
17:00
an asterisk.
17:00
The man overcame everything that he had to
17:03
to win the games in that season.
17:05
Yeah.
17:06
He still,
17:07
he still was the best out of the
17:08
field, regardless of who stepped down,
17:10
who left, who didn't stay, whatever,
17:13
whatever tests were pulled out of,
17:15
out of the rest of it does not
17:16
matter.
17:17
He still came out on top.
17:20
If you want to go look at it
17:21
and you want to say, well, you know,
17:23
they didn't do this workout and he didn't
17:24
do this workout and they had a big
17:25
long break and whatnot.
17:26
Well,
17:27
if the games would have been what they
17:29
ended up doing instead of what was
17:31
actually supposed to be programmed and he
17:33
still came out on top and
17:34
Like, it does not matter.
17:36
The man won.
17:37
Yeah, I agree, dude.
17:40
The whole asterisk thing is absolutely
17:41
insane.
17:42
Sure, you want to go look at it,
17:43
you can go say, well, you know,
17:44
in twenty-four, Bullfield wasn't there.
17:47
Hey, bro, in twenty-twenty,
17:50
there was only five people there in
17:52
person.
17:54
Everybody else had to do the online thing
17:56
just to be able to get a chance
17:57
to go to do it in person.
17:59
You're going to put an asterisk by Fraser.
18:01
He had enough points to win first, second,
18:02
and third.
18:06
But you're going to put an asterisk by
18:07
that as well?
18:08
I think that's silly.
18:10
So I don't know if you heard this,
18:12
but I guess Mike Halpin put out a
18:14
post that said that if all the events
18:18
were a hundred points,
18:19
Dallin would have won.
18:20
Yeah, congratulations.
18:21
You know what?
18:22
If my aunt had a wheel.
18:23
They weren't.
18:24
Yeah, a hundred percent.
18:26
If my aunt had wheels,
18:27
she'd be a bicycle.
18:28
Like, who cares, dude?
18:29
Like, it's not, we can do the if,
18:32
and, and, oh, well, maybe, sort of,
18:34
kind of, all day long.
18:37
It does not matter.
18:40
They weren't.
18:42
They weren't all the hundred points.
18:44
So if next year,
18:46
if we do the same thing and we
18:47
have fifty point scores and we have a
18:49
twenty five point score and whatnot and
18:51
Dallin wins and then, oh, well,
18:53
if they'd all been worth a hundred points,
18:55
then James would have won.
18:57
But they weren't like those.
19:00
It's a ludicrous thing.
19:02
It really, really is.
19:05
At AI,
19:05
I don't think Amy has an asterisk by
19:07
her name because Tia wasn't there.
19:09
Exactly.
19:10
Tia won that year in twenty four.
19:12
Vicky saying no one put one on her
19:15
name saying, well, Laura would drew.
19:17
So she's not.
19:18
Yeah, she.
19:20
We have typos here.
19:22
So she didn't have the same competition.
19:25
Yeah, that's absolutely insane.
19:27
No, sports always have hypotheticals.
19:30
It means you made it.
19:31
Yeah.
19:32
Baseball people are the worst.
19:35
FYI.
19:35
Stats and hypotheticals and if-ands and
19:39
what, man, this guy just hits this ball.
19:41
Well, he didn't.
19:45
This guy just makes this catch.
19:47
No, he didn't.
19:49
Well, baseball started the asterisks.
19:51
I don't know if you know the history
19:52
of this,
19:53
but when Roger Maris beat Babe Ruth's
19:56
single-season home run record in the game,
20:00
he had four more games to do it
20:02
or five more games.
20:04
And so there was this big outcry that
20:06
we can't ruin the legacy of Babe Ruth
20:10
by allowing this man to have it.
20:12
So they literally put an asterisk in the
20:14
record book about him winning the home run
20:17
title that year.
20:19
Now, last time I checked,
20:22
has Babe Ruth been diminished at all in
20:25
his accomplishments in baseball?
20:29
Is anybody out there going?
20:30
I mean,
20:31
he's dead a hundred years and we're still
20:34
talking about him.
20:34
Right.
20:38
A hundred percent, dude.
20:39
A hundred percent.
20:40
A hundred percent.
20:44
If somebody, they won't ever do it.
20:46
Go ahead.
20:48
I think it proves that not only does
20:52
programming matter,
20:53
but the point system also matters.
20:55
But, Shan,
20:55
I think what I'm trying to say is
20:58
the test is going to be different every
21:00
single year.
21:03
And there are factors that are going to
21:05
determine who wins that test.
21:08
When you win that year,
21:10
you are the champion,
21:12
regardless of all of that.
21:15
Yeah.
21:16
Oh,
21:17
we had an obstacle course race one year
21:18
and then we didn't the next year.
21:20
Oh,
21:20
Matt's win is invalid that year because he
21:23
didn't do the obstacle course.
21:24
Like, no, it makes no sense whatsoever.
21:28
You won yesterday morning.
21:33
Excuse me.
21:35
uh james was on with savan they were
21:38
supposed to do the the weekend review of
21:40
the weekend review or review the weekend
21:41
review you know they they just were
21:43
talking about it he was asking him about
21:45
you know events blah blah whatever and
21:47
james said the same thing i do as
21:49
far as competitions are concerned if i
21:51
show up to something the test is what
21:53
the test is i might not like it
21:54
very much but i'm gonna get out there
21:55
and do it to the best of my
21:56
ability i might have my own feelings about
22:00
it but i'm still gonna show up and
22:01
do it because that's what the test is
22:03
that's what they've laid out in front of
22:04
us
22:05
So to say that one season is better
22:09
than the other and it's more valid because
22:11
of this blah, blah, blah,
22:11
whatever is absolutely silly because it
22:14
changes every single time.
22:17
I have never been to a comp after
22:20
going to a different comp and be like,
22:22
you know,
22:23
and had the exact same workouts in,
22:24
in two separate things.
22:26
It just doesn't happen.
22:27
That open changes every single year for
22:30
the same reason.
22:31
Right.
22:33
Now, don't get me wrong.
22:35
The changes in programming and the changes
22:37
in points,
22:39
I see Meredith's thing about what should
22:41
have been a fifty,
22:42
what should have been a hundred.
22:44
It's okay to talk about that stuff,
22:46
but it shouldn't diminish who the champion
22:48
is.
22:49
That's my point.
22:51
It's okay to have these conversations
22:52
about what should have been,
22:54
what were those assessed the right number
22:57
of points,
22:58
was the programming balanced enough.
23:00
Yeah.
23:01
all those things are fine but it shouldn't
23:04
diminish who won the test for that year
23:06
no it that that's the people well if
23:11
it would happen was saying well if
23:12
everything would have been worth a hundred
23:13
points and dylan would have won yeah well
23:15
it wasn't so he didn't he came inside
23:18
uh sprague just has haters weird because
23:21
he had never said a negative thing about
23:22
anyone
23:24
You either love James Sprague or you are
23:27
wrong.
23:28
I'm sorry.
23:28
Actually, I'm not sorry.
23:32
He is a giant freaking puppy dog, dude.
23:35
He's a really nice guy.
23:37
He works his ass off to get as
23:39
fit as he does.
23:40
He has covered up every hole that he
23:42
has.
23:43
He is a man of God,
23:45
and he loves on everybody that he runs
23:47
across.
23:50
so i will tell you being there live
23:52
in the weekend right i love james spring
23:55
i love everything about him yeah it got
24:01
to a point where i was rooting for
24:05
dylan sure and i wanted him to get
24:09
the win right i'm tired of like everybody
24:11
dogging him because he's the only boys
24:13
interrupted without a title
24:15
An adult title.
24:16
An adult title, yeah.
24:17
I also got to interview Dallin when he
24:19
was twenty years old at the West Coast
24:21
Classic,
24:21
and he was so kind to come over
24:23
and talk to me during the event, right?
24:26
So that always is going to hold a
24:27
special place in my heart.
24:28
But I picked James to win.
24:32
Before the weekend started,
24:33
I named James as my pick to win.
24:37
But man, as the weekend went on,
24:39
and it was so right there for Dallin
24:42
to get...
24:44
But every time Dallin won an event,
24:46
James only was one or two places behind.
24:49
They're so close, dude.
24:52
And if James won,
24:53
Dallin was four or five places behind.
24:56
So Dallin just couldn't make up any ground
24:59
at all.
25:01
I mean, that's what Chase was saying,
25:02
dude.
25:02
Like,
25:03
Dallin sold out to win the echo thruster,
25:08
right?
25:09
And could not recover in time.
25:11
Like,
25:11
his first box jump on the second part
25:14
of that workout would look like me trying
25:16
to do it fresh.
25:18
Like, it just did not look good.
25:20
Well,
25:20
just like Pat Vellner falling off
25:22
something,
25:22
Dallin Pepper's going to miss a box jump.
25:24
Yeah, a hundred percent.
25:27
It's just...
25:29
It is one of those known things that
25:30
are going to happen in a competition.
25:31
A hundred percent.
25:43
Wow.
25:43
Dallin hurt his ankle during event two and
25:45
had problems walking on Thursday.
25:48
I understand.
25:50
But this is for KDL.
25:53
That is sports.
25:54
That is sports.
25:57
KDL thinks I should make a t-shirt that
25:59
says, that is sports.
26:01
I mean... I do say it a lot,
26:04
I guess.
26:05
Well, it's true, though.
26:07
I mean,
26:09
Bo Jackson dislocated his hip trying to
26:13
pull it out from a tackle and ended
26:16
his career.
26:17
For all intents and purposes,
26:19
he would have been the best,
26:22
or was the best two-sport athlete probably
26:24
in history.
26:26
And it's sports.
26:27
It happened.
26:28
He didn't mean for it to happen.
26:29
He didn't want it to happen.
26:31
Now we go.
26:33
Yay, sports.
26:36
Sportball.
26:38
So I am in casual conversation with
26:44
Garrett Glinton about doing a sports show
26:46
that is not CrossFit.
26:47
I'm in.
26:50
Colleen is like,
26:52
someone please talk to her about sports.
26:56
And then we were saying, yay, sports.
26:58
And so Colleen's got to do the intro
27:00
to the whole thing about like, yay,
27:01
sports,
27:02
because she wants nothing to do with it.
27:05
It's got to be like a couple of
27:07
highlight clips,
27:08
like Kobe dunking a basketball,
27:10
somebody catching a touchdown,
27:12
somebody hitting a baseball.
27:13
You know what I'm saying?
27:14
Just like a bunch of rapid fire things.
27:16
And then Colleen just going, yay, sports,
27:18
because she has absolutely no idea what's
27:20
going on with sports and doesn't care.
27:21
Yeah.
27:25
Yeah.
27:28
I don't want to go too long because
27:29
we, I've miserable.
27:32
Hey,
27:32
I don't know if I've ever said this
27:33
before, but I really hate my job.
27:35
I don't think you've even, that's news.
27:38
Honestly, I really didn't know.
27:40
The vendor we're working with right now,
27:42
their building is basically on fire.
27:44
They've been sold twice in the last six
27:46
months.
27:47
And trying to get them to do anything,
27:50
like I have to go in the burning
27:51
building to talk to them
27:56
And it is coming to a head today.
27:59
Oh, Meredith, that's cute.
28:03
Colleen,
28:04
please someone give her an outlet so I
28:05
don't have to hear about it.
28:07
I think that's pretty much it.
28:08
Pretty much.
28:09
Yeah.
28:12
I'll send stuff in one of the group
28:14
chats or whatnot.
28:17
There was one with just me, Garrett,
28:19
and Colleen,
28:20
and I'd send it mostly for Garrett's Kobe
28:24
Bryant highlights from back in the day and
28:26
whatnot.
28:27
We'd be talking about basketball,
28:28
and Colleen would just be sitting there
28:30
like,
28:30
can we talk about literally anything else?
28:41
And no one but you notices the fire.
28:43
Yeah, pretty much, Kenneth.
28:44
That is my life right now.
28:47
Yeah, it sucks, dude.
28:50
Absolutely sucks.
28:53
A couple big things I wanted to talk
28:55
about.
28:57
I don't know if you guys...
28:58
Let's talk about this first.
29:00
Dave's Week in Review.
29:02
Did you watch it?
29:03
No, I did not have a chance to.
29:04
I was busy all afternoon yesterday.
29:07
so he basically is just talking about the
29:09
games and it being over and i'm glad
29:10
being it's it's over because and i can
29:12
only imagine the dopamine flush that
29:15
happens to him when it's over like all
29:19
ramped up and ready to go right basically
29:21
though in the last thirty seconds of his
29:25
week in review he says i don't think
29:28
we're ever gonna do the thursday off thing
29:30
again or for a while
29:33
But we may do a Thursday night start
29:35
to the games into a Friday, Saturday,
29:38
Sunday.
29:40
And yes,
29:40
I'm talking about that because I'm already
29:42
thinking about next year.
29:44
Of course he is.
29:46
So all the talk,
29:48
is this Dave's final year?
29:50
I think not.
29:51
I'm going to go ahead.
29:53
Well, I'd say probably not.
29:56
And two,
29:58
I like that idea of like a prime
30:00
time start.
30:02
yeah i like that a lot especially if
30:06
we can get it a venue where i
30:10
hate to keep bringing it back but like
30:11
somewhere where we can get under the
30:13
lights outdoors at night on a thursday
30:18
night to start off with like i think
30:20
that would be pretty epic yep
30:23
um so someone asked colleen to sing smelly
30:27
cat and colleen says not with this voice
30:30
right now if you actually watch friends
30:34
phoebe liked a sexy voice when she was
30:36
sick i do remember that and it had
30:39
a whole different version of smelly cat so
30:43
i don't think that's an excuse colleen
30:46
make it happen colleen
30:50
It's also confirmation,
30:52
going back to what we were talking about,
30:53
it's also confirmation that there,
30:54
in fact, will be a Games next year,
30:56
which some people were also speculating
30:58
that maybe this is going to be the
31:00
end of it.
31:00
That's it.
31:01
No more.
31:02
Okay, so that's not a thing either.
31:05
I would like to remind everybody that
31:07
unless you have children that you need to
31:08
watch something on Flow Sports,
31:11
to go ahead and at least pause your
31:13
subscription.
31:13
If not,
31:14
go ahead and turn it all the way
31:15
off.
31:15
This has been a public service
31:16
announcement.
31:20
i don't watch friends never seen it i
31:22
will send you the video don't worry oh
31:27
my gosh i've i've seen every episode at
31:29
least i haven't seen it at least ten
31:32
times i've seen more than i want to
31:34
put it like that i'll put it to
31:37
you so i own the dvd set for
31:39
a while all ten seasons yeah like i
31:43
know what smelly cat is and i know
31:44
who chenandler bong is chenandler yeah
31:51
um i'm with meg i'm not sure how
31:56
or why we are friends uh all right
32:02
so something definitely felt like he
32:07
confirmed he's back next year programming
32:09
and it's twelve to fourteen events he
32:11
didn't kind of say that so like a
32:13
normal games yeah i really like the twenty
32:17
events
32:20
It kept you busy.
32:21
It did.
32:22
It did.
32:24
It kept you busy.
32:25
Just trying to keep up with everything
32:27
over the course of the weekend would have
32:29
definitely kept you busy.
32:31
So as far as that goes.
32:35
How many events?
32:36
Because I only got to see maybe three
32:39
and not even three full things,
32:41
mostly just highlights.
32:42
Any idea how many events the teams had?
32:47
know nobody cares about teams but me
32:49
because i have friends on the team but
32:50
i watched a lot of them but i
32:52
don't know the count i mean i was
32:53
in the arena for a lot of it
32:55
yeah uh they had three on sunday they
32:59
had two the thursday andrew's saying
33:02
twelve twelve okay yeah i would have got
33:06
there eventually yeah and then he he
33:10
throws in the i think at the end
33:12
yeah just in case i missed one twelve
33:15
maybe something along those lines
33:19
Um, one of the other things, um,
33:25
I forget.
33:25
Oh, I saw this on Instagram.
33:29
Patrick Clark was asking Brian friend.
33:32
Do you think Ariel Lowen is the greatest
33:34
American CrossFitter of all time?
33:38
but i want to pose this to you
33:40
because they did that question i actually
33:42
asked ariel that question a year and a
33:43
half ago asked her personally if she
33:46
thought she was the greatest american
33:47
crusader i'm sure she should though and
33:52
she said she was just happy to be
33:54
part of the conversation right right but i
33:59
think the more interesting question is why
34:01
do the u.s women suck at crossfit
34:06
because and i'm saying that like no no
34:09
i get it because i i said to
34:12
carolyn and jamie this morning i bet you
34:14
i can name ten women better than a
34:18
u.s athlete yeah and just off the top
34:20
of my head i got to ten
34:26
right it's not hard dude it's not hard
34:34
i mean you just start with tia and
34:36
then the two doubles of katrin and annie
34:39
um the last american champion was kristen
34:42
clever and clever in so then you just
34:45
take the champs like um sam briggs uh
34:51
camille leblanc besnay laura horvat
34:55
You throw in a Sarah Sigmundsdottir
34:58
multiple-time podium winner.
35:02
Emma Lawson's a multi-time podium winner,
35:05
and she's twenty-one years old.
35:10
Then Amy Kringle's already won,
35:12
and it's not going to take much more
35:14
to get past a U.S.
35:16
athlete.
35:17
No, because, I mean,
35:18
look at the podium this year.
35:19
Amy Kringle, Emma Lawson, and...
35:25
lucy campbell and lucinda yeah lucy
35:29
campbell's probably better than any
35:31
american athlete at this point oh yeah i
35:34
had lucy winning no i'm sorry i had
35:37
alex winning i had lucy in second but
35:39
still i mean it's pretty easy to get
35:43
to ten before you get to a u.s
35:45
female and then on the men's side it's
35:47
the exact opposite yeah
35:51
A hundred percent top five, top five,
35:53
like not counting the podium, but yeah,
35:56
top five, top seven.
35:57
I mean, and most of them are,
35:59
what's even crazier to think about is most
36:02
of those guys are brute athletes.
36:06
Yeah.
36:07
Americans and all of the top, but yes,
36:10
no, the, well, the podium, the,
36:15
the top four,
36:16
the two top men and the two top
36:17
women are all brute athletes.
36:19
Yeah.
36:25
Good God.
36:25
Meg O'Brien.
36:26
Mal O'Brien was our great women's hope.
36:29
But part of, okay, here we go.
36:31
It's sports.
36:34
You have to last.
36:38
I would say both Mal O'Brien and Emma
36:45
Carey were the two great American hopes.
36:50
And neither one of them made it to
36:52
twenty-one.
36:55
No.
36:55
Last I saw Matt LeBron,
36:56
I was making coffee in Hawaii.
37:01
And I don't know.
37:01
Ariel Lowen would be in the top ten.
37:03
I just named you ten athletes that have
37:06
a better resume than Ariel Lowen.
37:08
Yeah.
37:09
And Ariel Lowen's been on the podium.
37:12
Once.
37:12
A third.
37:13
Once.
37:13
Terry Pierce.
37:14
Once.
37:14
A third.
37:14
A third.
37:15
Yeah.
37:15
Yeah.
37:19
Julie Fouché, twice.
37:23
Lindsay Valenzuela, once.
37:25
It doesn't look great.
37:27
Becca Voigt, once.
37:29
Once.
37:30
Because you can't count her Masters career
37:33
at that point.
37:34
We're just talking about at least at this
37:35
point.
37:35
Let's go ahead and get that out of
37:37
the way.
37:38
Brooke Wells never hit the podium.
37:40
No, she did not.
37:45
So...
37:47
Yeah,
37:47
there's a lot of athletes that have
37:48
podiumed.
37:50
But, I mean,
37:52
Sarah Sigmundsdottir took third twice.
37:58
I mean, I just shot, like,
37:58
all the great American hopes.
38:00
Hayley Adams.
38:04
Hayley Adams has never hit the podium.
38:06
Never hit the podium.
38:07
Alex Gazan has not hit the podium yet.
38:11
Alexis Raptus, also not on the podium.
38:16
Yeah.
38:17
good night olivia olivia is probably the
38:22
best hope yeah i mean one podium already
38:29
don't start that don't start that joseph
38:33
yeah we ain't talking about that um
38:36
Seema,
38:36
I actually like this comment because I
38:38
think it is a lot about this.
38:40
What you were describing is a fundamental
38:41
difference in country support of women.
38:43
No paid family leave, pink tax,
38:46
societal norms around American women.
38:57
She just went way over my head.
38:59
I have absolutely no idea what she was
39:00
talking about, but I believe her.
39:01
She seems to be pretty smart, so...
39:07
um a lot of american women athletes are
39:10
overrated folks conflate popularity with
39:12
capability uh he says well unable to do
39:15
ring muscle ups here's the thing though
39:21
dude like and i know it's recency bias
39:25
because she literally just won a couple
39:26
days ago like amy kringle was fixing to
39:28
be unbelievably popular
39:30
Lucy came second last year,
39:33
and she is unbelievable.
39:35
I feel like she's popular here.
39:37
She's popular in the community,
39:39
not just overseas.
39:43
People like her.
39:44
When she goes on podcasts, people tune in.
39:48
When they watch her videos,
39:50
they want to know more about her and
39:53
whatnot.
39:54
Before I came on here,
39:55
I was watching a Hiller video,
39:57
the new CrossFit game champion,
39:59
Amy Kringle.
40:00
Great video, by the way.
40:02
Yes, a hundred percent.
40:04
I can't believe he had the patience to
40:05
hold off on a lot of that content
40:08
and pull it out right after she won.
40:10
Well, he's on the spectrum,
40:12
so that's probably why.
40:15
But good on him, dude.
40:17
I'm sure, I mean,
40:18
obviously he had that at the ready,
40:20
ready to rock.
40:21
He probably did some final edits and
40:22
touches and put it out there.
40:25
And then you look on the men's side,
40:27
and since two thousand ten,
40:29
all the champions are U.S.
40:31
based except one.
40:35
that person's canadian so they're still on
40:37
the same kind of landmass he's canadian so
40:42
he's not that far from here he's just
40:44
right um we just need a healthy page
40:56
i think when or a healthy alex kazan
40:59
i mean i'm not saying that there aren't
41:00
u.s athletes that have the potential to
41:02
win
41:03
But man, looking at the history, man,
41:07
we have not fared well.
41:12
Yeah.
41:12
Yeah, Amy saved him from the Hiller curse.
41:15
A hundred percent.
41:24
Was Alex not healthy this year?
41:26
I don't know.
41:27
Tristan,
41:27
I'm just talking out my ass at this
41:29
point with it all.
41:34
She has a couple holes she needs to
41:35
sew up.
41:38
But yeah.
41:43
So the last thing I wanted to talk
41:44
about is,
41:45
I don't know if you guys saw this
41:46
come out this morning,
41:49
but Waterpalooza SoCal is looking at a
41:52
format change.
41:55
Here we go.
41:58
I don't know if you can see that.
41:59
Jim Reaper's Battle of the Camps.
42:04
I love the camps.
42:05
Look at Noah Olsen throwing it back.
42:08
My money's on the outlaw way.
42:09
Yes, sir.
42:11
Good job, Noah.
42:15
That's fantastic.
42:18
So I think Emily Rolfe actually has a
42:20
question that I have.
42:23
Can the individuals make up a camp that
42:25
aren't part,
42:26
like there's one camp that's the non-camp
42:29
camp.
42:29
yeah it's the camp of the misfit toys
42:33
not to be confused with misfits because
42:36
like carolyn privo's never been part of a
42:38
camp no emily rolf's not a part of
42:40
a camp ariel lowen's not a part of
42:42
a camp did you hear she trains in
42:43
her garage and she's the best american
42:46
athlete we've ever had um but
42:56
It's going to be interesting to see
42:57
because we don't have the details yet,
42:59
right?
42:59
Which is great marketing by Dylan and the
43:02
team at Waterpalooza by throwing this out
43:04
without the details because now
43:08
everybody's going to talk about it.
43:11
I mean,
43:11
you told me about it before we went
43:12
live and my first question to you is
43:14
what constitutes a camp and how many are
43:16
we going to invite?
43:18
That's my biggest question, right?
43:23
Yeah.
43:24
Mike DeVito has a name for the Misfits
43:26
Camp Nowhere.
43:27
Yeah.
43:28
I mean, does Tristan get a camp?
43:29
Tristan, do you get a camp?
43:30
Have you been contacted about having a
43:32
camp at the Battle of the Camps?
43:33
He's probably had to sign an NDA about
43:35
his affiliation with this competition.
43:37
Is a send athlete going to have a
43:41
team?
43:42
I'm assuming this is going to be some
43:43
sort of team thing at Battle of the
43:45
Camps.
43:48
Yeah.
43:48
Justin and Elling.
43:52
That's not a camp,
43:53
unless it's just us two.
43:55
I forgot to play the disclaimer earlier
43:57
on.
43:57
This podcast contains sarcasm, opinions,
44:00
and an unhealthy amount of CrossFit
44:01
discussion and going off the rails.
44:03
Side effects may include laughing
44:05
inappropriately,
44:06
yelling at your dashboard,
44:07
and questioning.
44:13
Need to play that at the beginning of
44:14
every episode.
44:15
This has been a PSA from the Clydesdale
44:17
Media Podcast.
44:19
Tristan said he can't give away any
44:20
details.
44:22
i told you nda ndas ndas baby yeah
44:28
because because people in crossfit really
44:30
really hold true to an nda they respect
44:34
the respect for ndas and crossfit goes
44:38
beyond like above and beyond because i
44:41
don't know the last time a workout is
44:43
leaked oh no not at all do you
44:45
remember what happened live on the savan
44:47
podcast
44:52
Oh, that was so good.
44:54
Yeah,
44:55
Trista said it's going to be Brute Mayhem
44:56
and Proven.
44:59
I mean...
45:00
You have to have a European camp.
45:01
You have to.
45:06
Do you?
45:09
Yeah.
45:10
Or you have no Europeans showing up.
45:17
And we already know if you want good
45:18
women, you can't do it from the U.S.,
45:23
So here's the thing, dude.
45:24
Like we talked about,
45:28
if you want to have Ariel Owen,
45:36
she's not going to be able to go
45:38
because she's not part of a camp.
45:39
We don't know that, though.
45:40
We don't know if they may have that
45:43
camp nowhere.
45:45
That camp nowhere where it's just random
45:47
people.
45:50
random random you know the uh the camp
45:53
outsiders the camp solos camp and
45:55
introverts camp we don't need people yeah
45:59
camp here's my coach and that's all i
46:03
got is my coach yeah we don't even
46:06
know the team sizes tristan we don't know
46:10
that there's going to be six
46:13
Maybe it's going to be like a basketball
46:14
team.
46:14
They got, they got the teams of twelve.
46:16
They have twelve people.
46:18
That's the case.
46:18
It's going to be two camps.
46:20
Maybe it's like survivor camps can form an
46:22
alliance.
46:23
Oh, you get voted off of the competition.
46:28
Voted off of the competition for the
46:30
training camp and HWPO or combining have
46:33
spoken.
46:34
The camp has spoken.
46:37

47:26
He got some really cool pictures of me.
47:28
I just got to hang out with him
47:31
for an extended period of time.
47:32
I just wanted to acknowledge that because
47:35
he is a fantastic human being.
47:37
He is also one of the largest people
47:39
that I've ever met in my entire life.
47:41
And there's not an ounce of fat on
47:42
that dude.
47:43
