1:03
Why is it that Joseph Ramirez every day
1:07
associates a food with the day of the
1:09
week?
1:13
I'm going to tell you what.
1:15
When you burn as much calories as Joseph
1:18
Ramirez does,
1:20
the man exercises like a maniac.
1:22
You got to feed the machine.
1:25
Got to feed the machine.
1:26
feeding the beast man let's be real
1:29
hundred percent absolutely yeah anybody
1:32
who who subs in an echo bike for
1:35
an erg i don't have a choice hey
1:39
sometimes you have a choice you got to
1:40
do what you got to do you got
1:43
you have to feed that beast because you
1:45
are burning more calories on the echo than
1:47
you are on the arc depending on the
1:50
workout yeah i would say that for sure
1:54
had a real fun one uh monday that
1:56
actually did tuesday that was absolutely
2:00
disgusting because that's just kind of
2:02
that we program you didn't you did so
2:06
i don't know you watched the sunday show
2:08
late did you see what jamie programmed for
2:11
her gym last week and uh oh the
2:14
freaking mile yeah yeah no she's out of
2:16
her mind when i saw that as a
2:20
matter of fact i wanted to text her
2:21
and be like dude do you hate your
2:22
members like what is wrong
2:27
And I preface that with my dumb co-host.
2:30
Yeah.
2:31
Yeah.
2:32
Yeah.
2:34
And she seemed like she deserved it.
2:37
I mean, that's just absolutely insane,
2:39
dude.
2:40
She was shooting me videos of it going
2:43
down.
2:44
She'd completed it in the morning.
2:45
These were evening videos of the class.
2:49
It looked awful.
2:52
That's because it was.
2:53
That's only the reason why it looked awful
2:55
is because it absolutely is.
2:56
There's no way, dude.
2:57
Like, that's just... What is it?
2:59
Four hundred meters of burpee broad jumps?
3:01
Four hundred meters of something else?
3:02
Four hundred meters of... Well,
3:04
I think there's a run in between each
3:06
of the... Oh, yeah.
3:07
That makes it so much better.
3:09
Yeah.
3:09
Thank God.
3:10
You can break with a run.
3:11
Sure.
3:13
I... Yeah.
3:15
Just...
3:16
Mark Phillips is another stupid,
3:19
silly pants, dumb, stupid, silly,
3:22
whatever it is.
3:23
It's DDSP.
3:25
DDSP.
3:26
DDSP.
3:27
I want to do it,
3:28
just don't want to do it alone.
3:29
Oh, you just finish with a four-meter run.
3:35
Somehow I doubt by the finish you're
3:36
looking to do anything that's even
3:38
resembling a run.
3:39
I would say it probably ends with a
3:40
four-meter shuffle.
3:42
Yeah.
3:43
You just finish with a run.
3:45
I take...
3:47
Take it back.
3:48
Yeah.
3:48
It's not broken up by runs.
3:50
You finish with a run.
3:51
Yeah.
3:55
Run.
3:59
I don't want to do anything.
4:01
No, Meg.
4:02
As far as I know, she's not.
4:03
She may have been.
4:04
She's been watching some sort of trial.
4:06
So that might actually be it.
4:09
She watches it on her phone.
4:10
So I have no idea if that's actually
4:12
what it is or if it's some other
4:13
trial because she loves that kind of shit.
4:16
So it might be.
4:17
I can't do that kind of stuff because
4:20
it involves kids.
4:21
And I'm going to get irrationally angry
4:24
and upset and all that stuff because...
4:28
If you hurt children,
4:29
you are the absolute worst possible thing,
4:32
in my opinion,
4:33
on the face of the absolute planet.
4:34
And I will take it out personally on
4:37
you.
4:39
My wife is probably watching it.
4:40
I wouldn't know because I check out
4:43
whenever any true crime is on.
4:47
When I'm down here doing this is when
4:49
she squeezes in her true crime stuff.
4:52
yeah we watched them uh together because
4:57
some of the stuff she we we pick
4:59
up is interesting like the the what the
5:02
what was it uh some of the ones
5:05
that are like the world's worst like worst
5:07
neighbors or whatever is on uh is on
5:10
one of them that one was that was
5:12
four episodes of that's pretty cool like
5:13
one of them these people house just
5:14
exploded in the middle of a neighborhood
5:17
which seemed pretty random at one point
5:19
but they were actually trying to do it
5:20
to get uh
5:23
to get the insurance money off of it.
5:26
And the neighbors ended up dying.
5:27
It was a whole terrible thing.
5:29
But in some of the other ones,
5:30
the one that started off,
5:32
this woman went absolutely batshit insane
5:36
on her neighbors,
5:37
and they lived across the street from each
5:38
other.
5:39
So it wasn't like she was down the
5:40
road or nothing like that.
5:41
It just kept going on and on and
5:43
on and on.
5:44
Bro, it was wild.
5:48
Yeah, Daniel, I don't even want to know.
5:51
If it's my time, it's my time.
5:53
Yeah, no.
5:56

6:57
I'm like, find a,
7:00
like we have a pressure washer.
7:01
Why am I looking for another one?
7:03

7:04

7:05
My mom gives me sunny do lists.
7:07
Yeah.
7:08
Well, I mean,
7:09
gotta be grammatically correct.
7:14
Um, Ken Walters, some of the,
7:15
about a proven longest five K, uh,
7:18
sorry don't want to forget that it was
7:21
way up there uh the proven workout world's
7:23
longest five k you do twenty five burpees
7:25
then a thousand meter run then fifty air
7:28
squats for five rounds our box did that
7:31
in endurance class last week that was
7:33
rough ken no just no yeah um
7:46
Meg says that was your chance to get
7:48
a new pressure washer.
7:50
Corey, way to blow that opportunity.
7:53
Megan, I don't want a new pressure washer.
7:59
You understand what happens if you have a
8:00
new pressure washer?
8:00
Then you actually have to use it.
8:02
Exactly.
8:04
No.
8:05
I'm okay.
8:07
I'll be all right without that.
8:10
I watched some football last night.
8:12
Oh,
8:13
was the Hall of Fame game last night?
8:15
No, no, we're past Hall of Fame.
8:16
We're a week in preseason week one.
8:19
Shows you where I'm at on the timeline
8:22
there.
8:22
Yeah,
8:23
I actually told Garrett and Joseph and
8:26
Jeremy that the reason you weren't on the
8:29
sports show is because I have to explain
8:31
the sports to you if it's not CrossFit.
8:32
Yeah, well, I mean,
8:34
it depends on which sport we're talking
8:35
about, but yeah, for the most part.
8:37
As a matter of fact,
8:38
I was at the barber this morning,
8:40
and I go to an actual barber shop,
8:43
and it's
8:45
one of the highlights of my month when
8:46
i get to go in there because it
8:48
is straight up old school barber shop like
8:52
if there's a woman in there it's because
8:53
she brought her kid to go and and
8:56
get their haircut and whatnot so it's a
8:57
bunch of old dudes or adult god men
9:00
whatever
9:02
talking about whatever comes across this
9:04
morning.
9:05
It was Jaden Daniels and, uh, you know,
9:08
preseason football and all that other good
9:09
stuff.
9:10
But that's why I sell my barber this
9:11
morning.
9:12
So Jonathan, I said, man,
9:14
I might actually watch the saints this
9:15
year.
9:15
I haven't watched professional football
9:18
and I had to think about it for
9:19
a little while.
9:20
I think the last full season of
9:22
professional football I watched was in two
9:24
thousand and fourteen.
9:29
And it's two thousand twenty six.
9:30
If anybody was keeping track.
9:32
Yeah, it's been about that long.
9:34
It's been about that long.
9:37
So last night I watched Steelers Packers.
9:40
I watched Bengals Lions.
9:42
I tuned in for a minute of Raiders
9:44
Cardinals.
9:45
That was boring as hell.
9:47
And then I hit a little bit of
9:49
Titans Niners.
9:52
So there was a lot of football last
9:53
night.
9:54
So this is the Joseph Ramirez section of
9:57
the podcast.
9:59
Drew Aller for the Steelers looked
10:01
awesome.
10:01
All right.
10:03
So he is a Penn State kid.
10:06
I watched every snap he took at Penn
10:08
State.
10:09
He didn't look this good in college.
10:13
And in his first pro start looked really
10:16
freaking good.
10:18
He went ten of thirteen for one eighty
10:20
and three touchdowns.
10:22
Wow.
10:23
That's impressive.
10:25
Yeah.
10:25
That's efficiency actually is what that
10:27
is.
10:27
Um, which is outstanding.
10:30
Uh, they went,
10:32
so I was watching a thing, uh,
10:35
actually not that long ago where,
10:37
they were, you know, the,
10:38
this quarterback or that quarterback,
10:40
whatever.
10:40
And they were talking about college
10:41
quarterbacks, nothing from, uh,
10:44
what's his name?
10:44
Brandon on, uh, Barstool sports.
10:48
And they were doing college quarterbacks
10:49
and, you know,
10:51
it came up Peyton or whoever, right.
10:54
Talking about Peyton Manning.
10:56
He's one that he was okay in Tennessee,
11:00
but like he couldn't beat,
11:01
he couldn't beat Florida.
11:04
And then once he got to the NFL,
11:06
and I feel like a lot of them
11:06
were like that.
11:10
Drew Brees was that freaking Purdue,
11:12
for Christ's sake.
11:13
That football powerhouse, Purdue.
11:18
It goes to show you that one player
11:19
can't win a game.
11:21
Correct.
11:23
you get them in the nfl and all
11:25
of a sudden they got all these other
11:26
tools and weapons around them and a better
11:27
line and a better system that works better
11:29
for them all of a sudden it's like
11:30
somebody you've never heard of potentially
11:33
is holy where did this kid come from
11:35
yeah well penn state was in the final
11:39
four two years ago with drew aller at
11:42
quarterback yeah lost on a last second
11:45
interception to notre dame
11:48
Like,
11:48
they could have been in the national
11:50
championship game two years ago very
11:51
easily.
11:53
And then last year,
11:54
the wheels came off the bus, the train,
11:56
whatever.
11:57
All of it.
11:59
But it was fun.
12:01
It was good to see football back.
12:03
And then I'm excited for tomorrow where
12:05
the Bears' first preseason game and the
12:09
cross-fitting Tyson Bajent will be getting
12:11
the start for the Chicago Bears tomorrow,
12:15
one p.m.
12:16
against the Cleveland Browns.
12:18
And I'm excited.
12:18
He's getting a whole half,
12:20
a whole first half.
12:22
Not the Indiana Bears yet.
12:24
They said yesterday that they are
12:26
adamantly,
12:27
they will never be the Indiana Bears.
12:30
They may have a stadium in Indiana,
12:32
but the name will always be Chicago Bears.
12:34
Just checking.
12:35
Just checking.
12:40
Ken Walter says, pump the brakes.
12:42
It's first week preseason Nittany Lion
12:44
bias.
12:45
Hey, bro.
12:48
was skeptical whether he could play in the
12:50
NFL because I watched every snap at Penn
12:52
State he was very inconsistent his
12:56
footwork looked really good and really
12:58
different last night that's all I'm gonna
13:01
say and that's a big thing with
13:03
quarterbacks yeah
13:09
The other thing I wanted to get into,
13:12
and I need Vicky's help on this one,
13:15
is yesterday during the chat, people said,
13:17
hey,
13:17
did you see the end of the barbell
13:18
spin?
13:19
Oh, yes, I did.
13:21
And no, I did not.
13:22
So I did.
13:25
If Vicky is ready,
13:28
we have it queued up.
13:31
And if she goes ahead and plays this.
13:33
All right.
13:43
with volume, hopefully.
13:48
Oh, no.
13:57
All right.
13:57
So let me see if I can pull
13:59
it up, Vicki, real quick.
14:10
While you're doing that, Mr.
14:11
Brian Thompson,
14:11
the Tuesday Sports Talk was on Glinton
14:14
Things Podcast.
14:16
Our friends, the Glintons,
14:17
friends of the show,
14:18
collaborators on the show from time to
14:20
time, good people.
14:24
I gave her the timestamp.
14:26
Can you put the timestamp into the chat,
14:29
Vicki, so I can find it real quick?
14:35
Thank you for having premium, Vicki.
14:38
Yes, we have premium, Vicki.
14:41
We don't have discount Vicki.
14:49
One fifty one twenty.
14:56
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum.
15:00
I don't know, but.
15:01
I.
15:08
I just think about the direction of media
15:10
and marketing within CrossFit.
15:16
I don't know what you do with it.
15:19
I know.
15:24
I think I'm about done.
15:25
No, I'm serious.
15:35
I think I'm about done.
15:37
That was such an old man way of
15:39
saying it, dude.
15:40
We're all sitting on a porch in rocking
15:42
chairs and John goes, well,
15:44
I'm about done.
15:45
I wish I had the end stream button
15:47
ready.
15:49
I'm not talking about the podcast.
15:52
Just with it all.
15:55
Just focus on me and mine.
15:57
I'm serious because people don't know
16:05
We, we are in,
16:06
we're in a CrossFit matrix and only a
16:09
few people have chosen the red pill.
16:15
I think that's far enough.
16:17
So, um, very interesting.
16:22
Uh, I was caught off guard by this,
16:25
um,
16:25
someone who is so passionate about the
16:27
sport all of a sudden, um,
16:30
says he's done and that he needs to
16:34
prioritize him and his family.
16:40
He goes on to say that he's just
16:43
tired of trying to say things that he
16:48
thinks are helpful and that could help the
16:51
sport and that nobody ever listens and
16:54
nothing ever changes.
16:57
And then I will say that Brian Spinn
16:58
jumped in and said that we need to
17:00
be the voice of reason.
17:03
Without third-party media being the voice
17:05
of reason,
17:06
then you just get what everybody wants you
17:08
to do.
17:08
And he hearkened back to ten years ago
17:12
to when CrossFit ran the media and nobody
17:16
could get access to anything.
17:19
Right.
17:19
And they controlled everything.
17:21
And it wasn't until this third-party media
17:23
came to kind of
17:25
Be the voice of reason.
17:26
Be the devil's advocate.
17:28
Be the other side of the argument that
17:30
we actually had some stuff like this.
17:33
And the reason this kind of resonates with
17:36
me is there's part of me that feels
17:40
this way too.
17:42
Not that I'm done, but man,
17:45
I'm really tired of banging my head
17:47
against the wall.
17:50
Sure.
17:50
So I went back in time.
17:55
uh to an interview that i did oh
17:57
i thought you meant you actually went back
17:59
in time that would have been way cool
18:02
um and if vicky could give me the
18:05
time stamp on this one um i know
18:08
about where it is uh so i'm gonna
18:12
oh she said it's in a private chat
18:15
uh
18:22
yep all right so i'm gonna just play
18:23
it from here uh so this was episode
18:29
two sixty of the clydesdale fitness and
18:31
friends before we changed our name and uh
18:36
the whole crew is there but i'm i
18:38
it's only armin talking so uh this is
18:41
armin hammer back in the day and this
18:44
is after he disappeared and we asked him
18:47
why have you disappeared and then it was
18:51
you know, the whole Greg Glassman thing.
18:52
And then it was, you know,
18:53
CrossFit gets sold.
18:55
And what does that mean for CrossFit?
18:57
What does it mean for the future?
19:00
I just felt like at a certain point,
19:01
I was kind of repeating myself.
19:03
I felt like I was just saying similar
19:05
things over and over again.
19:07
And the people who listened either agreed
19:10
or disagreed and kind of brought up good
19:12
points or in both directions.
19:14
And the people who heard what they wanted
19:15
to hear generally tended to just assume
19:18
that I was saying something that I
19:19
definitely wasn't.
19:21
um which is just common for the internet
19:23
in general and i felt like i kind
19:26
of got my point across in a lot
19:28
of ways and by the time we sort
19:32
of did this insane like third trimester
19:35
cross-country move and then like couple
19:38
months later had a baby by the time
19:40
that happened i was just really worn thin
19:45
by the the
19:48
crossfit not like the community because
19:51
that was a hundred percent the best part
19:53
of everything that this thing has to offer
19:56
but i was just worn thin by the
19:59
organization like crossfit as an
20:01
organization wore me out to the point
20:04
where i just could not i could not
20:07
see myself like especially once lev was
20:10
born and i kind of felt this really
20:12
monumental shift in my priorities
20:16
The time that I was spending covering
20:17
CrossFit as an organization felt
20:20
poisonous.
20:21
It just didn't.
20:26
So I feel like there are very parallel
20:30
stories here with what John Young said the
20:33
other night on the barbell spin and what
20:36
we captured with Armin.
20:38
Gosh, I don't know.
20:39
It was years ago.
20:41
Um,
20:44
I don't even know when that came out.
20:46
Four years ago, four freaking years ago.
20:52
So how do you,
20:55
and I see Sean asking,
20:56
banging my head against the wall to do
20:58
what?
20:59
We're a talk show that talks about
21:01
CrossFit and we talk about the same things
21:06
over and over again, the same mistakes,
21:09
the same things that frustrate us.
21:11
And it gets old by the end of
21:13
the season.
21:14
Like I am done.
21:16
I don't want to talk about it anymore.
21:19
That's why I love this show.
21:21
I love this show because, um,
21:26
Because we don't always talk about
21:27
CrossFit.
21:28
We have fun.
21:29
We do other things, right?
21:31
But this is a serious piece.
21:34
And Jake's in the chat.
21:35
What's up, Jake?
21:36
Haven't seen you in a bit.
21:38
Good, you're back.
21:38
CrossFit is very simple.
21:39
There's only so much content one can make
21:41
around the central stuff.
21:45
The issue is you say that,
21:49
but they have this arm that is a
21:50
sport.
21:52
And it has a season that goes all
21:54
year round.
21:56
People talk about the NFL all year round.
21:59
People talk about baseball all year round.
22:01
People talk about other sports all year
22:03
round.
22:06
And it's just getting to be hard because
22:11
you're saying the same things.
22:13
Nobody is doing anything different.
22:16
And you're begging.
22:17
That's why I wanted to dive into WFP.
22:20
It's going to be different.
22:21
And it just turned out to be kind
22:24
of the same old thing.
22:26
Well, yeah,
22:26
it's still a CrossFit competition at its
22:28
base.
22:28
I mean,
22:29
even Jason Ansley said that the other day
22:31
when he was on Pedro's show.
22:33
Right.
22:35
But just because you're a CrossFit
22:37
competition doesn't mean you can't change
22:40
the format up.
22:44
And I've made this argument in the past.
22:46
The CrossFit Games finds the fittest on
22:48
earth.
22:48
It has to be a balanced test.
22:49
It has to meet all these criteria.
22:51
When you're not that,
22:54
you can be whatever you want to be.
22:57
But everybody just dives into,
22:58
we need to have a balanced test.
23:00
We need to find the fittest at this
23:02
competition.
23:03
No, you don't.
23:04
You just need to do something fun for
23:06
competitors to come sign up for.
23:13
We already have the thing that finds the
23:15
fittest.
23:17
We don't need to do that eight more
23:18
times in a year.
23:19
Oh, okay.
23:21
I see what you're saying.
23:22
Yeah.
23:23
The games needs to do that.
23:25
I will concede to that.
23:28
But Rogue doesn't try to find the fittest.
23:31
They try to find the coolest shit they
23:33
can put out on the floor to market
23:35
their stuff, and it's a different comp,
23:37
and that's why I enjoy watching it every
23:38
year.
23:39
Or the most ridiculous, or sometimes both.
23:42
Yes.
23:45
Asima,
23:45
I like the show because things aren't
23:46
clipped and posted to IG and YouTube to
23:49
be taken out of context and spun a
23:51
narrative to take other shows down.
23:54
Thank you.
23:56
You have no idea how many conversations
23:58
Scott and I have had about that very
24:00
thing.
24:00
The fact that we don't.
24:01
So, yeah,
24:02
we're not trying to do that by any
24:03
stretch of imagination.
24:05
No, I don't disagree, but there's not...
24:08
Beyond that,
24:10
so this is another counterpoint or kind of
24:14
goes hand in hand with that is that,
24:16
oh, athletes, they won't, you know,
24:17
WFP is a perfect example.
24:18
Oh, it's going to be great.
24:19
More chances to compete,
24:20
more chances about whatever.
24:23
And there's only so much competing in
24:25
CrossFit you can actually do in the span
24:28
of a year and not be completely broken
24:31
as an athlete.
24:34
just isn't so like and you know wfp
24:39
came out swinging big time you know we've
24:42
got all these athletes blah blah whatever
24:44
and then it takes a toll and you
24:45
see the guys slowly drop off of it
24:47
slowly drop off of it so there's only
24:49
so much that that stuff you can do
24:51
and i'll agree with you that yeah i
24:53
would there's not there's only so much to
24:55
talk about it does get super annoying to
24:58
just be rehashing the same things over and
25:01
over again but i would also say that
25:04
I don't know what else we expect them
25:07
to do because it's not like they've ever
25:08
listened to media in the first place.
25:12
But I think that's where the frustration
25:14
comes in, right?
25:15
Like if we think about Armin,
25:16
Armin was in the space for ten years.
25:19
Yeah.
25:20
Ten years prior to any of us being
25:23
in the space.
25:24
He was the naked CrossFitter.
25:26
He was the WODcast podcast, right?
25:29
Like all that stuff that occurred way
25:32
before any of us jumped into this.
25:35
And he had a breaking point.
25:36
He hit a breaking point about that
25:38
CrossFit just never did anything
25:40
different.
25:41
And this is where I worry, right?
25:44
Because it's not just a sport thing,
25:46
which is what we focus on on this
25:48
show and most of the shows focus on.
25:52
Affiliates are leaving.
25:56
Affiliates are leaving.
25:57
We used to have fifteen thousand
25:59
affiliates.
26:00
We're somewhere around eight or nine now.
26:04
That isn't...
26:05
That is a scary drop in affiliates.
26:14
Sean in Oregon,
26:15
I'm an influencer leading voice in my
26:17
industry.
26:17
I stopped talking at conferences,
26:19
publishing articles, et cetera,
26:21
ten months ago because I have nothing else
26:23
new to say.
26:24
So I get it.
26:27
I think that's what Armin was saying.
26:29
The John Young thing,
26:31
you have to listen to it.
26:32
He makes the analogy to the Matrix that
26:34
there are people that know what's going on
26:36
behind the scenes and people that don't.
26:38
And the people that don't are just kind
26:40
of like driving aimlessly down the road
26:43
without knowing what's going on and
26:45
thinking that everything's going to be
26:47
great.
26:51
We've never been in the know on this
26:53
show.
26:54
I know a few things,
26:58
but I've never been in the know or
27:01
part of any group that's been in the
27:03
know.
27:04
I'll tell you,
27:05
if you're third-party media and you go to
27:07
the games, there are definitely tears.
27:13
Oh, I would say so.
27:14
And I've never been in the games as
27:15
media or even just as a guest.
27:17
I have no problem believing that
27:20
whatsoever.
27:20
Yeah.
27:21
some people are going to get treated
27:23
differently than others yeah and i don't
27:27
even have a big problem with that and
27:31
unless it's abused and um people are being
27:36
very blatant about it
27:41
Yeah.
27:42
So I don't know.
27:45
I just wanted to,
27:46
people brought it up yesterday.
27:47
I went, I watched it.
27:48
I,
27:49
and I just got to say like after
27:51
the games,
27:52
I need to take a step back and
27:54
I'm actually,
27:55
I'm going to WFP in another week and
27:57
a half.
27:58
I'm actually excited about that.
27:59
I'm, I'm excited to see,
28:04
I'm excited to see something different.
28:07
I just want to see what's there.
28:09
And I'm telling you this,
28:11
the infighting in the media,
28:13
I've said this a million times.
28:15
I'm so over that.
28:19
I think it totally brings everything else
28:21
down.
28:24
I don't know.
28:25
I'll never understand it.
28:26
I really, really don't.
28:27
Because it's not like there's not enough
28:28
room for everybody.
28:30
It makes no sense to me whatsoever.
28:33
I don't get it.
28:34
I am eternally grateful.
28:38
that we are not part of that like
28:42
every day that i come on here and
28:44
do this show i am incredibly grateful that
28:48
we never got caught up in and i
28:50
have no plans on getting caught up in
28:52
any of that external you know it's not
28:56
us and i'm happy for that
28:59
Peter hanging out in the chat.
29:00
WFP back in Indianapolis should be good.
29:02
Jason taking a step forward is great.
29:05
Listen,
29:06
that's why I'm excited about WFP because
29:08
we dogged them pretty hard in season one.
29:11
yeah they've made changes and the major
29:14
major change in my opinion is making jason
29:16
ainsley the front-facing voice of wfp
29:20
people if you did not watch his interview
29:22
with peter on peter's show the other day
29:24
go watch it it's an it's incredibly good
29:28
because there's no bullshit in jason
29:30
ainsley there's none whatsoever i'm like
29:33
i'm so this happened at monster games
29:35
while we're talking about jason
29:37
So we did the combine.
29:38
We were the test mules for the combine.
29:41
We didn't do the bench press,
29:41
but we did do the four-yard dash,
29:44
the five-ten-five, the vertical leap,
29:47
and the broad jump.
29:50
They had problems getting all the data
29:52
together for the four-yard dash and the
29:54
five-ten-five for whatever reason.
29:57
Their technology wasn't working exactly
29:59
right,
29:59
so they couldn't get everybody's scores
30:02
in.
30:03
So what they ended up doing was just
30:06
deleting those two scores completely.
30:08
Okay.
30:10
So the next morning,
30:12
like that Sunday morning,
30:13
I wake up to two separate emails from
30:15
Jason Ansley.
30:16
The first one is explaining what happened.
30:19
Hey, the data was corrupted, whatever.
30:22
We couldn't get all of it.
30:23
So this is the decision that we made.
30:25
And he probably sent that sometime
30:27
Saturday night.
30:27
I don't know.
30:28
I didn't check my email that much.
30:30
Okay.
30:32
The very next email, because in my app,
30:37
they come in,
30:38
the newest one is on top.
30:39
So I actually read that one first and
30:40
said, basically, he's like,
30:43
and this is not a direct quote from
30:45
Jason.
30:45
This is me saying basically what he said.
30:48
Me paraphrasing here is like, hey,
30:51
all you people who sent me emails back,
30:53
bitching at me, come find me today.
30:56
And I will gladly have a conversation with
30:58
you about as to why we did what
31:00
we did.
31:01
I'm sorry if you don't like it,
31:03
but it was the best and only solution
31:06
that we had.
31:09
And that's the kind of dude that he
31:10
is.
31:14
I was not blown away because I've had
31:17
a couple interactions with him before,
31:19
and I have no problem believing that.
31:20
But he legitimately told people, hey,
31:21
I will talk to any and everyone who
31:23
has an issue.
31:24
I'm going to be there all day long,
31:26
and I will talk to everybody that wants
31:28
to be talked to until everybody is
31:32
satisfied.
31:36
Yeah, the bench press,
31:37
the combine style of the bench press is
31:39
too hard to judge, I guess.
31:41
And that makes complete sense.
31:43
But they are doing a one rep max
31:45
bench at WFP in a week and a
31:48
half.
31:48
It is just,
31:49
it's not during the combine session.
31:51
It is later in the weekend.
31:53
Yeah.
31:54
So basically is what I'm getting at is
31:56
that Jay Stansley is that dude.
31:59
He has no problem talking to anybody who
32:01
wants to talk to him.
32:02
We'll have a, you know,
32:03
a legitimate conversation.
32:05
Um, he, it was awesome.
32:09
It was,
32:09
it was an outstanding interaction with an
32:11
entire group of people who were highly
32:13
upset, uh, that they're, you know,
32:16
the work that they did the day before
32:17
was not going to get counted.
32:19
And I understand that.
32:21
And he did too,
32:21
but like the hate that he was getting,
32:23
he was like,
32:24
y'all want to talk to me,
32:24
come talk to me.
32:25
Don't just send me emails randomly behind
32:27
a wall.
32:29
So.
32:30
Having him in short, as like you said,
32:33
being the front facing for the WFP was
32:35
probably the smartest thing they did since
32:37
they've been a thing.
32:42
Can I just say on another note,
32:43
watching back those interviews with Armin
32:46
that we did,
32:47
I missed that dude so much.
32:50
People, if you have never...
32:52
I'm sure that was what you're still on
32:53
there.
32:54
Never listen to Scale As Needed,
32:57
the podcast that he used to do with
32:58
his friends when they just sat around and
33:00
talked about whatever was on their mind.
33:04
And every day, it was S-A-N.
33:06
So every time they let alone S-A-N stood
33:08
for something else, which...
33:11
made my uh my humor heart so so
33:16
uh so warm because they just made up
33:19
something new every day it is fantastic to
33:21
listen to it is outstanding to listen to
33:24
it's fan is is top tier content if
33:27
you think we go off the rails no
33:30
no they didn't even have a train we
33:32
are just copying
33:35
We are just copying.
33:39
We are a cheap copy of S.A.N.
33:42
and we have no problem with that.
33:43
It's perfectly fine.
33:44
It was outstanding.
33:48
Yeah.
33:49
Armin was great.
33:51
You know, we weren't like close friends.
33:54
We didn't have each other's phone number.
33:55
But the fact that he would answer my
33:58
messages and come on the show a couple
34:01
times.
34:02
And him and Chase both.
34:04
Chase I would consider a friend.
34:07
And love that dude so much.
34:10
Yep, podcast, podcast.
34:12
Hell,
34:12
the old episodes of the CrossFit podcast
34:15
that are still,
34:16
as far as I can tell,
34:17
on Apple Podcasts are also really,
34:20
really good.
34:21
The ones from, like,
34:21
the year or somewhere around there.
34:25
When Armand got kicked out of the games.
34:27
Right,
34:28
when Armand got kicked out of the games,
34:29
yes.
34:29
Yeah.
34:38
So anyway, um,
34:41
chat's talking about other stuff,
34:43
trying to stay focused.
34:45
I did want to lock in the one
34:48
thing I did.
34:49
I was listening to the spin and them
34:51
talking about Jenna too.
34:52
And I wanted,
34:53
I had one final thought that best
34:55
describes Jenna and why I'm sad that she's
34:58
leaving.
34:59
I messaged her yesterday and we talked a
35:00
little bit.
35:01
so the other thing is i i always
35:05
was told that when you go visit someone
35:08
you should leave whatever you have access
35:12
to in a better place than when you
35:14
got there leave it better than you found
35:16
it and the one thing that jenna did
35:21
was leave that place in a better spot
35:25
than when she found it because when she
35:27
found it it was in a really bad
35:29
place
35:30
Yeah, underground with a headstone.
35:35
And she left.
35:37
And that CMO position is now in a
35:41
much better place than it was when she
35:44
got there.
35:45
Yeah.
35:47
And so if that's said about me when
35:51
I go visit somebody or when I go
35:53
do something,
35:54
that is the ultimate compliment.
35:56
And I just wanted that to be said
35:58
about her.
36:01
Yeah.
36:01
Again.
36:03
I messaged her yesterday and I totally did
36:06
not expect a response and had a short
36:10
conversation with her on Messenger
36:11
yesterday and basically just wished her
36:12
all the best.
36:14
Told her everything that we said
36:15
yesterday.
36:16
And like you said just now, hey, congrats.
36:18
Like you took something that was dead and
36:20
buried and resurrected it.
36:21
And we can't thank you enough for that
36:22
because it was needed.
36:25
Right.
36:25
A hundred percent was needed.
36:28
And just wish her, you know,
36:29
all the best in whatever she does going
36:31
forward.
36:35
what actions do you think jenna did that
36:37
left it in a better place uh i
36:40
don't think we have enough time jake to
36:41
lift it list it all off um the
36:45
documentary she did with the nerd who
36:49
crossfits or whatever i can never remember
36:51
her for her name um the one she
36:54
did with the the the guy who was
36:56
obese and lost whatever and then showing
36:59
them going to an l-one
37:01
Like those things.
37:02
The marketing,
37:04
there was nothing before her.
37:07
Yeah.
37:08
There just was nothing.
37:09
And there were actually things I saw that
37:13
got me inspired, that got me thinking,
37:17
man, CrossFit is cool.
37:20
Now, I have had criticisms as well.
37:25
when nerds teach.
37:27
The documentary she did on her, amazing.
37:30
And the fact that she just keeps doing
37:32
content based on her CrossFit journey is
37:36
awesome.
37:42
The other things are she did the F,
37:46
the quick fix.
37:47
She did,
37:48
there was another promotion after that.
37:51
There are CrossFit commercials,
37:54
essentially,
37:55
that show up in different places on social
37:58
media.
38:00
And she brought back Road to the Games.
38:02
She brought back some other,
38:05
that's just off the top of my head.
38:07
None of the,
38:08
all that was gone for years before she
38:11
jumped in.
38:12
Going, going.
38:13
I don't know if you guys remember that
38:15
or not,
38:15
but like the last road to the games
38:18
was what,
38:18
in two thousand fifteen or sixteen?
38:22
Maybe, maybe seventeen.
38:25
I have to go look and see.
38:25
Maybe Vicky can find out for us.
38:27
But like it's been quite some time.
38:29
Well,
38:29
the media team was fired in eighteen.
38:31
In eighteen.
38:33
Yeah,
38:33
but I don't remember if they if they
38:34
had shut that down before that or not.
38:35
Honestly, don't.
38:37
were still road to the games because
38:39
sixteen was uh bridges and sixteen was
38:42
bridges and ants yeah and then everybody
38:46
unfortunately remembers that one um andrew
38:51
asked if she's leaving voluntary or being
38:53
replaced her official response is that she
38:56
has resigned yeah what that means uh who
39:03
knows
39:05
look it's not for us to find out
39:09
it's really really not we might at some
39:12
point but that's a decision is she saying
39:15
she resigned then she resigned like it's
39:17
not for us to i am a big
39:19
proponent of that's her story to tell yes
39:22
yes yes yes that's what i'm trying to
39:24
get across um
39:30
Barry asks,
39:31
who in HQ is responsible for affiliate
39:33
growth?
39:34
Every single person.
39:35
Every person that walks in the door should
39:37
be a sponsor.
39:38
That should be the number one priority of
39:40
everybody who walks in the door at
39:41
CrossFit HQ.
39:43
Not even at HQ.
39:44
I'm going to tell you who else is
39:46
responsible for affiliate growth.
39:47
Anybody who goes to an affiliate.
39:52
True.
39:53
Any and every person that goes to an
39:54
affiliate.
39:56
I am a coach.
39:58
I am also an athlete.
40:00
If it comes to CrossFit,
40:01
I'm an athlete and a coach.
40:03
It's probably about what and what because
40:05
I need to get my fitness in as
40:06
well.
40:06
Probably more so on the coach side.
40:08
I want twenty people in every one of
40:10
my classes.
40:13
I do.
40:14
Why?
40:14
Because that means there's more people
40:16
getting healthy.
40:16
That means there's more people enjoying
40:18
the best hour of their day.
40:21
Shout out to the best hour of their
40:21
day, boys.
40:23
And getting healthy and getting fit.
40:25
And the more people that are in there
40:26
doing it,
40:26
the more people are out there in the
40:28
world telling other people about it and
40:30
can get other people cross-fitting and
40:33
therefore trying to take on the world's
40:37
most vexing problem head on.
40:40
So when you say who's responsible for
40:41
affiliate growth,
40:43
every person who considers themselves to
40:44
be a CrossFitter and goes to an affiliate
40:46
is responsible for affiliate growth,
40:48
not just the people in HQ.
40:51
So Barry says,
40:52
we keep talking about affiliate numbers
40:54
declining,
40:54
but who has that as their metric of
40:58
performance at HQ?
41:00
I think that's the problem we've had at
41:01
CrossFit HQ.
41:03
Yeah.
41:04
They don't have metrics anymore.
41:07
Now, I'm not in the building.
41:09
I don't know if they have metrics or
41:10
not, but doggone it.
41:12
If it were me,
41:13
I would have a poster on the wall
41:15
of current affiliates and
41:19
what our goal is and are we achieving
41:22
any growth at all over the course of
41:25
whatever?
41:27
Yeah.
41:28
The minute they walk into that door,
41:30
if you're on a football team, uh,
41:32
they were talking about this the other
41:33
day, Ben Johnson wants to be the highest,
41:36
um,
41:37
powered offense in the history of the NFL.
41:40
And,
41:41
and when you walk into the room or
41:43
into the locker room at house hall,
41:45
it says strive for greatness, right?
41:48
Everybody knows what the goal is.
41:50
Everybody knows walking in.
41:53
There is no HQ building anymore for people
41:57
to walk into and be on the same
41:59
page of going in the same direction.
42:02
Shout out to Sousa.
42:03
He's been beating that drum for years now.
42:06
The fact that there is no actual place
42:08
for people to come in.
42:10
But it's more than the building.
42:12
It is more than the building.
42:13
But if everybody's in the building...
42:16
As opposed to, oh, well,
42:17
I'm here and you're here and then remote
42:19
and maybe we might see each other once
42:21
every three months or so,
42:22
something along those lines.
42:25
There's no people.
42:27
If I'm in the room with you,
42:28
it is way easier for me to hold
42:30
you accountable or for you to hold me
42:31
accountable than it is for if I am
42:33
just doing my work remotely somewhere and
42:34
maybe I'll get on a call later and
42:36
maybe I won't.
42:38
Do I think it works for everybody?
42:39
No.
42:39
Do I think it works for somebody like
42:41
that as far as business growth is
42:42
concerned and everybody be able to be a
42:45
lot easier to get on the same page?
42:46
Absolutely.
42:47
Absolutely.
42:50
So Jake,
42:50
I didn't get a chance to answer your
42:52
first question,
42:52
but if you pull up the latest comment
42:54
of Jake,
42:56
this is what I would have answered to
42:57
your last question.
42:59
I think what she did initially by bringing
43:01
back the eat meats, veggies,
43:04
and the pukey,
43:05
the clown and all that fed into the
43:07
base that already exists and got them
43:10
reignited.
43:12
Then there should have been a transition
43:14
to,
43:15
we need to bring in outside people to
43:17
this thing.
43:19
I'm not sure that truly happened.
43:23
Now, I do think Nerds Who Teach,
43:25
that documentary,
43:26
could reach other people,
43:27
but we have to get it to places
43:29
where other people can see it.
43:31
It's the same problem with watching the
43:33
CrossFit Games and having commercials for
43:35
CrossFit during the breaks.
43:39
You're selling ice to Eskimos at that
43:41
point.
43:41
Like, what are we doing?
43:45
Yep.
43:45
Those commercials are great.
43:46
They really are.
43:47
If you've watched any of them,
43:48
they are outstanding.
43:50
The people who are watching the games,
43:52
by and large, already get it.
43:55
They've already bought that product.
43:57
Just slapping it onto YouTube means that
44:00
it's going to go into the algorithm for
44:02
that type of thing,
44:04
and you're going to be selling it.
44:06
The same people who watch CrossFit content
44:09
are going to see it.
44:12
You're not reaching anybody new.
44:14
It's one of those, it takes money,
44:16
you're going to spend money to make money
44:17
type deal.
44:18
It needs to be on during something else
44:22
that is not CrossFit related.
44:26
Period.
44:26
Do I think they need to be at
44:28
a thirty second spot at the Super Bowl?
44:30
No, we don't have that kind of money.
44:32
Not currently,
44:33
but should it be on during a baseball
44:36
game or during a basketball game or
44:39
something along those lines?
44:41
Sure.
44:42
Why not?
44:42
Why not have a, you know,
44:44
pay for some ads during another,
44:45
at least a sporting event.
44:47
People were watching sporting events.
44:50
This is my completely, totally,
44:53
and probably really off-base opinion here,
44:56
but are more likely to be people who
44:59
would want to go and work out and
45:00
do those type of things if you're watching
45:03
that kind of shit.
45:09
So, Jake, conceptually,
45:13
I understand what you're saying.
45:15
Zlatan probably gained CrossFit
45:16
affiliates,
45:17
a thousand members worldwide with one
45:19
post.
45:20
We don't have a metric to show us
45:22
that.
45:22
So back to Barry's comment,
45:25
how do you measure that?
45:29
And this is getting way in the weeds
45:31
of shit that is back into my business
45:34
background and my MBA.
45:37
The issue that CrossFit has is it throws
45:39
spaghetti at the wall.
45:41
And you can't measure it.
45:43
You can't measure the effect of the
45:45
spaghetti because you've thrown so much
45:47
shit up there.
45:48
You don't know what any single piece of
45:51
that pasta has done to make an impact.
45:55
Yep.
45:58
And they've always been that way.
46:00
They've always just thrown shit up.
46:05
Now, we're at a point in the growth,
46:10
and I've talked about this earlier in the
46:11
week,
46:11
from a small business to a medium business
46:13
to a large business,
46:16
the thought process has to change because
46:18
you have to think of things differently.
46:24
When you're a small business,
46:25
you can throw shit at the wall,
46:26
and it's still going to have an impact.
46:28
And it doesn't really matter which way it
46:30
comes from,
46:31
but you have to know where you're spending
46:32
money and where is the value coming back
46:35
from that money that you spent.
46:38
Making a commercial that's only going to
46:40
air to your base,
46:41
is that money well spent?
46:43
No.
46:45
It's not.
46:46
I don't give a damn who says what
46:47
about anything.
46:48
Are those things cool?
46:50
Yes.
46:51
Those things are fun to watch when you
46:52
see the guy that, uh,
46:54
the one that he did with Scott Pancheck
46:55
with the older fellow that was at Scott
46:57
Pancheck's, uh,
46:58
that one was outstanding to watch and they
47:02
made it into an ad basically.
47:04
And it's fun, but okay.
47:06
We already,
47:07
like we get that people have seen that
47:09
kind of stuff at their local affiliate.
47:11
There is more,
47:12
more than likely a chance that that kind
47:14
of stuff has already been seen at your
47:15
local affiliate.
47:15
So why are you showing it to us?
47:19
Not that we don't want to see it,
47:21
but money well spent,
47:23
money better spent is to send it somewhere
47:25
else where it's actually going to get some
47:27
traction.
47:29
One of the things that used to be
47:33
done very well was the website was kept
47:36
up and it had relevant information on it.
47:41
And when you did search engine
47:44
optimization of that stuff,
47:48
then people were finding it because it
47:50
wasn't in an algorithm.
47:52
People were searching for certain things.
47:55
Now the website is so freaking confusing.
47:58
Yeah.
47:58
Does it look more modern?
48:00
Yeah.
48:00
It's not white and black text on,
48:03
but is it easy to navigate?
48:05
No.
48:10
That is the first thing I would do
48:12
as the chief marketing officers.
48:15
Get people to open up your website or
48:18
make an app that people are interested in.
48:23
And again,
48:24
I'm just spitballing off the top of my
48:26
head because I have not sat down and
48:28
thought about a marketing strategy for
48:30
CrossFit.
48:32
As it turns out.
48:38
uh you gonna get that one the wayne
48:41
one uh there isn't a voice outside of
48:43
the crossfit community hell cindy is now
48:45
known as the spider-man challenge because
48:47
the general population has no clue and
48:50
that is on crossfit amen wayne that is
48:53
incredibly frustrating the fact that
48:57
crossfit hasn't jumped on that that piece
49:01
of content
49:03
and blowed it up because now you have
49:06
people looking for tom holland people
49:08
looking for spider-man not just crossfit
49:15
and if you listen to him he says
49:18
it's a crossfit workout like from the
49:21
original thing and then he explains what
49:23
it is and instead people skipped right
49:26
over that they're like let's do the
49:27
spider-man challenge
49:30
Mind-blowing.
49:31
Mind-blowing.
49:33
I would have him slowly get that clip
49:36
of him saying that,
49:37
and then when he says, it's a CrossFit,
49:39
we're CrossFit, CrossFit,
49:43
and just say it six times,
49:44
and then he cut to somebody else going,
49:46
yeah, it's called Cindy.
49:48
So here's the disconnect, Jake.
49:51
Yes, they did it eight months ago.
49:54
Hey, I don't know if you know this,
49:55
but a new freaking Spider-Man movie came
49:57
out two weeks ago.
50:00
It's projected to do two billion dollars
50:02
worldwide.
50:03
So guess what's back at the top of
50:05
people's minds?
50:07
Spider-Man.
50:09
And the guy who plays him does CrossFit.
50:13
He's on every talk show right now.
50:16
Not eight months ago.
50:18
Right now.
50:22
Now's the time when you want to jump
50:24
on these activities.
50:29
Oh, and FYI, Tom Holland's ripped.
50:33
The couple of times that he's been in
50:35
the movie or whatnot,
50:36
like when he's without a shirt,
50:37
the dude is ripped.
50:40
And they're calling it Tom Holland's
50:42
Spider-Man workout.
50:44
Oh, my God.
50:45
Scroll down a little bit.
50:46
Scroll down a little bit.
50:48
Spider-Man hit workout.
50:50
Hit.
50:52
Hit workout.
50:53
Why is this?
50:55
Good God, people.
50:57
It's a freaking CrossFit workout.
51:05
I just got a headache.
51:06
Oh, my God.
51:07
Joseph Ramirez says Spider-Man is washed.
51:09
It broke the record for box office in
51:13
the history of movies week one.
51:15
Yeah.
51:22
That's another one.
51:23
Yes.
51:23
Patrick Clark.
51:23
Thank you.
51:24
The thing we talked about last week with
51:26
Patrick Wilson doing grace.
51:29
Yes.
51:30
Not even doing grace,
51:31
just doing a bunch of power cleans,
51:32
but whatever.
51:33
Same, almost the same thing.
51:35
And why he thought it looked cool.
51:42
Joseph Tyson Bajan is a nice story and
51:46
I'm a Chicago bears fan and I love
51:47
him to death,
51:48
but he's a backup quarterback in the NFL.
51:51
Tom Holland just starred in the number one
51:53
box office movie in the world for in
51:58
box office in the history of movies.
52:01
Yeah.
52:03
If you haven't seen it, it's so good.
52:06
Just throwing that out there.
52:08
Are you freaking kidding me?
52:10
Like the opportunity was right there to
52:13
grab and nothing was done.
52:16
No,
52:17
we're going to call it a hit workout
52:19
on YouTube.
52:19
We're going to call it the Spider-Man
52:22
workout.
52:23
Tom Holland, Spider-Man workout.
52:25
No, it was Cindy.
52:27
Yeah, still is FYI.
52:30
I go do it right now.
52:32
It'll still be Cindy.
52:34
It has nothing to do with, with,
52:35
with Spider-Man other than the fact that
52:37
Tom's like, oh,
52:38
when I'm pressed for time and it,
52:42
this is another, this, this, another,
52:44
lots of people doing the Murph challenge
52:45
have no idea.
52:46
It's a CrossFit workout.
52:48
That's the, a problem.
52:52
That's a problem.
52:56
jake jake said funny funny how they don't
53:02
do fran yeah you know why it hurts
53:07
well and um the cape fear guy uh
53:11
my the name is patrick wilson said that
53:16
they have to film this like twenty
53:18
different times
53:19
If he were going to do Fran twenty
53:21
times, he wouldn't survive the day.
53:25
He had to find something that was doable
53:27
over and over again.
53:29
Can you imagine, so you did Fran once,
53:32
say Patrick Wilson's got a three minute
53:34
Fran, three and a half minute Fran.
53:36
You're now dusted for the next ten minutes
53:38
before you can get up and move around
53:40
and think about doing it again.
53:44
But Ken,
53:44
if I want to see Fran on Cape
53:47
Fear, I don't want it scaled.
53:49
no no not at all not even close
53:56
as a matter of fact oh yeah i
53:59
i just tried to picture like i got
54:01
a name ten takes of somebody doing fran
54:06
Jesus Christ, you'd be wrecked, dude.
54:08
Why does my pee look like Coca-Cola?
54:10
I don't understand.
54:11
This doesn't feel right at all.
54:13
Something's wrong, bro.
54:17
Patrick actually admitted that the cleans
54:19
were just the easiest to repeat over and
54:22
over and over again.
54:23
Yeah, because somebody was like,
54:24
why don't you do snatches?
54:25
He's like, oh, no, we're not doing that.
54:31
And they were good form.
54:33
They were good cleans.
54:34
Yeah.
54:35
He actually did.
54:37
Yeah.
54:37
He actually did have decent form and he
54:40
looks, he's ripped dude.
54:42
Like clearly that's not the first time
54:44
he's done them.
54:45
First of all, so you do enough, hundred,
54:50
thirty-five pound cleans.
54:51
It will ruin your day.
54:56
All right, let's go off.
54:59
I have to get back to work.
55:01
However, however,
55:04
I have to rip on you one last
55:06
time.
55:07
Oh, please.
55:08
Because Vicky and I talked about doing the
55:10
Dumb Dumb Stupid Pants Award of the Week.
55:12
The DDSP.
55:12
And taking nominees throughout the week.
55:16
And we have been very reluctant to get
55:19
those nominees or remember to even
55:21
advertise it as an award.
55:23
As a thing.
55:25
But...
55:27
So I'm doing a bad job.
55:28
I am not marketing to my people the
55:31
way I should for the Dumb Dumb Stupid
55:33
Pants Award.
55:34
It's a cry in shame.
55:36
But I want to hand out the Dumb
55:38
Dumb Stupid Pants Award of the week.
55:40
Sure.
55:41
And it goes to Jaden Daniels.
55:43
Oh, yeah, a hundred percent.
55:45
He should get two.
55:46
I don't even know if it goes to
55:47
him or if it goes to his mom.
55:48
He should get two.
55:51
Well,
55:51
one for him and one for his mom
55:53
because she's going to have to give him
55:54
his anyway.
55:56
The memes that have been flying around.
56:00
Did you know that five guys changed their
56:02
name to four guys because they don't know
56:04
if they can use the five permission from
56:09
Jane Daniels to use the five?
56:10
Yeah.
56:11
FYI,
56:12
a lot of businesses across the country are
56:15
switching from nine to five to nine to
56:17
four.
56:18
So if you're hearing this right now,
56:19
go ahead and leave an hour early for
56:21
work and you can thank Jaden Daniels
56:22
later.
56:25
When I heard his teammates on the
56:26
commanders are no longer giving high
56:28
fives,
56:30
they are now giving high fours because
56:34
they just want to respect his number.
56:37
So yesterday we talked about how he
56:39
compared himself to Joe Burrow,
56:41
yet Joe Burrow won a national
56:42
championship, went undefeated,
56:45
embraced the city,
56:46
changed the spelling of his last name to
56:49
E-A-U-X, all that stuff.
56:53
The piece that I forgot about until you
56:56
sent me a reel was that Jaden Daniels
56:59
refused to play in the bowl game for
57:03
LSU.
57:05
And the Cheez-It Bowl.
57:07
And then he's going to sue LSU and
57:12
give me everything back because you gave
57:14
my number five to another player.
57:17
And it wasn't even,
57:18
it was the Cheez-It Bowl.
57:21
You didn't treat me like Joe Burrow,
57:23
the legend.
57:28
Mind-blowing, dude.
57:29
Absolutely mind-blowing.
57:31
Oh, Jody, sorry.
57:32
You're in here late.
57:33
Apparently you weren't here yesterday.
57:35
Jaden Daniels' people, his team,
57:38
excuse me.
57:40
He made a statement himself.
57:41
I'm not excusing him anymore.
57:43
Yeah, no, no, no, no.
57:46
Sent a cease and desist to LSU to
57:50
no longer use his name, image,
57:52
and likeness because he feels offended
57:55
that somebody else is going to use the
57:56
number five.
57:57
So apparently he's the only person on the
57:59
planet that can use the number five.
58:02
Sorry.
58:02
If you are a NASCAR driver and you
58:04
happen to have number five,
58:07
sorry about your luck.
58:08
You're going to have to go ahead and
58:09
change that.
58:09
I don't know if anybody had told you.
58:14
Wayne Short says, first home game,
58:16
LSU should give away number five picket
58:18
jerseys.
58:18
You're not going to have to.
58:19
First,
58:20
DJ Pickett is going to be one of
58:22
the top cornerbacks in the league this
58:24
year.
58:25
Secondly,
58:26
you know how many jerseys they're going to
58:27
sell just because it's got number five on
58:29
the back of it?
58:31
I'm going to give you a hint.
58:32
It's a lot.
58:35
It is a lot, a whole lot.
58:40
Oh, it's fantastic.
58:49
Yeah.
58:49
No.
58:49
So if I'd make a Jersey number four
58:51
plus one, the flag is thrown.
58:54
Whistle gets blown.
58:56
It's a,
58:58
Offsides, number seventy-three offense.
59:01
Six-yard penalty, still first.
59:06
I'm going to take a wild stab in
59:07
the dark and guess that Barry McOchner is
59:09
an Eagles fan.
59:12
Probably.
59:13
He has talked about the Eagles owning the
59:15
commanders, owning Jaden Daniels,
59:16
owning everything for the last five
59:19
minutes.
59:20
So I'm just taking a wild stab in
59:22
the dark that he is a fan of
59:25
the team that puts out a promo video
59:29
of his quarterback throwing an
59:30
interception.
59:37
Just, you know,
59:39
because we love Jalen Hurts so much.
59:42
Let's put out a promo video of him
59:46
throwing an interception.
59:48
See, now that he said that Cinco,
59:50
so Wayne Short said we had Ocho and
59:52
now we have Cinco.
59:55
I also found out that Cinco de Mayo
59:57
is no longer going to be called Cinco
59:59
de Mayo.
59:59
It's going to be called Cinco de Jail
1:00:02
in honor of Jaden Daniels.
1:00:06
uh patrick's right santa owns the eagles
1:00:11
the only town that santa gets booed in
1:00:16
the eagles fans are rough dude eagles fans
1:00:20
are rough
1:00:27
Oh, good night.
1:00:28
So I do have a new fun thing,
1:00:30
and I'm going to hit this, Vicky.
1:00:32
This is what happened to Jalen Hurts when
1:00:37
they threw that interception.
1:00:38
Son of a bitch!
1:00:49
Oh, that's good.
1:00:53
I need to go watch the new episodes.
1:00:54
I really need to go watch the new
1:00:55
episodes.
1:00:57
That is so good.
1:00:59
That may be the funniest thing I've seen
1:01:00
on TV all year.
1:01:03
Yeah.
1:01:05
That is outstanding.
1:01:07
I'm trying not to just,
1:01:08
I'm trying to hold it.
1:01:09
I'm trying to hold it together.
1:01:10
I was laughing so hard yesterday.
1:01:11
My abs hurt.
1:01:12
It was fantastic.
1:01:17
Um, my cheeky little laugh.
1:01:18
Thanks, Jake.
1:01:19
Um, well, I laughed a lot yesterday.
1:01:21
I posted a thing.
1:01:22
If you only knew what happened after the
1:01:24
show,
1:01:24
we're going to quickly tell you what
1:01:26
happened after the show yesterday.
1:01:27
Let's get the quick recap going on.
1:01:28
Let's get the,
1:01:29
we want to bring Vicki in.
1:01:30
You actually want to bring Vicki in so
1:01:32
she can, she can try to defend herself.
1:01:34
No, cause there's no, no, no.
1:01:37
No,
1:01:37
we're not going to let her speak because
1:01:39
we were there.
1:01:40
We witnessed it.
1:01:41
So I said to Corey that my wife
1:01:44
and I are thinking about coming to New
1:01:45
Orleans for our thirtieth wedding
1:01:46
anniversary as part of a tour that we're
1:01:49
going to do because she wants to see
1:01:51
New Orleans.
1:01:52
And a lot of conversation happened in the
1:01:55
middle there.
1:01:55
But then Vicki said.
1:01:59
Vicki said,
1:02:00
make sure you go to that hotel that
1:02:02
serves breakfast, brunch.
1:02:04
Brunch.
1:02:05
The historic hotel.
1:02:07
The historic hotel that serves brunch.
1:02:09
And Corey's like,
1:02:10
every hotel in New Orleans is a historic
1:02:12
hotel that serves brunch.
1:02:15
So all of them.
1:02:16
And Vicki keeps going, you know the one.
1:02:20
The one that serves brunch.
1:02:22
And it has the ducks.
1:02:23
And then Corey's going, the ducks?
1:02:26
What the hell are you talking about,
1:02:28
the ducks?
1:02:30
I don't know a single hotel that serves
1:02:32
brunch with ducks.
1:02:33
Never.
1:02:34
We eat ducks.
1:02:36
Yeah, I said we eat ducks.
1:02:37
But you can get ducks served to you.
1:02:39
And she was like, you know,
1:02:42
the chef comes in and they bring ducks
1:02:43
inside and it goes into the – never
1:02:46
in my life heard about it.
1:02:48
Turns out Vicky is frantically typing on
1:02:51
her keyboard to prove us wrong.
1:02:54
She goes, it's the Peabody Hotel.
1:02:57
And Corey's like,
1:02:58
I don't know a Peabody Hotel.
1:03:00
And Vicky goes, it's in Memphis.
1:03:02
It's in Memphis.
1:03:03
Damn it.
1:03:05
I don't know if y'all notice or not.
1:03:07
This isn't going to be a spoiler alert
1:03:08
to some people, but Memphis from my house,
1:03:11
my house is forty five minutes from New
1:03:12
Orleans.
1:03:13
Memphis from my house is about six and
1:03:14
a half hours away.
1:03:16
If they're bringing ducks from Memphis to
1:03:20
New Orleans every single day,
1:03:23
that's dedication.
1:03:24
I'm just just throwing it out there.
1:03:28
Oh.
1:03:32
anyway people dog my wife for wanting to
1:03:34

Tell her to Google pictures.
1:04:17

1:04:19
Hey, Jules.
1:04:22
We talked about you wanting to go to
1:04:23
New Orleans on the show today and the
1:04:25

1:04:55
Hold on, one last thing.
1:04:56
Patrick Clark, this is about the same,
1:04:58
this is about the same thing.
1:04:59
Go to the Voodoo Museum.
1:05:01
Which one?
1:05:08
Anyway, let's go.
1:05:11
What is more plentiful?
1:05:14
Historic hotels that serve brunch or
1:05:16
voodoo museums?
1:05:17
That's about what and what.
1:05:22
Most of the historic hotels have voodoo
1:05:25
museums inside.
1:05:28
The ones that aren't haunted.
1:05:31
And guess what?
1:05:32
They're all haunted.
1:05:36
Guys, my abs.
1:05:37
I'm going to have washboard abs from all
1:05:38

1:05:46
do a figure competition from all the
1:05:47
laughing that we did.

Go to that place that sells pro boys.
