Lunch with the Clydesdale - Do We Even Want CrossFit in the Olympics? · Clydesdale Media Podcast

• 0:03
  Just what we need,
• 0:04
  a brand new app in the fitness space.
• 0:07
  But who's got it?
• 0:09
  A big boy.
• 0:10
  We're going to check it out next.
• 0:22
  I love the chase and the hunt,
• 0:24
  and I set the pace when I'm running.
• 0:25
  I always take what I want,
• 0:27
  and I always give it one hundred.
• 0:28
  Don't need a bank, no I'm funded.
• 0:30
  Play the game like it's nothing.
• 0:31
  I'm always thankful for something.
• 0:33
  Don't take for granted, stay humble.
• 0:34
  Now wake up!
• 0:36
  It's time to look at the enemy.
• 0:38
  Look in the mirror if he is no
• 0:40
  friend to me.
• 0:41
  It's not working out,
• 0:42
  maybe it's the chemistry.
• 0:44
  It's time to break up so I can
• 0:46
  make a better me.
• 0:48
  What is going on, everybody?
• 0:49
  As Trent Olive always likes to say,
• 0:52
  It's lunchtime.
• 0:54
  You need to take five minutes out of
• 0:56
  your day and record that so you don't
• 0:57
  have to mess your voice up every single
• 0:59
  time.
• 0:59
  I know.
• 1:00
  I know.
• 1:03
  I'm having so many roadcaster problems on
• 1:05
  the Sunday night show because it goes so
• 1:07
  long.
• 1:08
  Apparently, at some point, it just quits.
• 1:10
  It just taps out.
• 1:13
  It just says, I'm done.
• 1:15
  And I've got to shut it off and
• 1:16
  then restart it to get it to click
• 1:18
  back in.
• 1:19
  Thankfully,
• 1:20
  Jamie and Carolyn are to a point where
• 1:23
  they talk enough.
• 1:24
  Last night,
• 1:24
  they didn't even notice me going.
• 1:25
  I just, a lot of roadcasters are like,
• 1:29
  you know what?
• 1:30
  You guys keep going.
• 1:32
  I'll be right here.
• 1:36
  train all of his extra jazzy because she
• 1:38
  worked out at six a.m.
• 1:40
  So did I. More power to you.
• 1:44
  So did I.
• 1:45
  We did me some raw animals this morning.
• 1:49
  I woke up freezing last night.
• 1:52
  I went to set the,
• 1:53
  I always turn the temperature down to go
• 1:55
  to bed and I went to set it
• 1:57
  down.
• 1:57
  And this flashing thing is on the screen.
• 2:00
  I can't see it because the light won't
• 2:01
  come on.
• 2:02
  And it says net time to replace the
• 2:04
  battery.
• 2:05
  Well,
• 2:06
  I was still able to like switch everything
• 2:07
  around.
• 2:07
  So I'm like, well,
• 2:09
  it must be just that the battery is
• 2:11
  the light.
• 2:12
  For now.
• 2:13
  And it's warning me,
• 2:14
  you better get it in before the whole
• 2:16
  thermostat decides to conk out.
• 2:18
  Right.
• 2:19
  I woke up this morning freezing and I
• 2:22
  I'm like that son of a bitch died
• 2:24
  on me overnight and I've had no heat
• 2:27
  and I went over and it didn't die.
• 2:29
  I just was, I just was cold.
• 2:31
  I mean,
• 2:33
  I got to get that battery in there
• 2:34
  before long.
• 2:36
  How cold is it at your house right
• 2:38
  now or outside?
• 2:40
  Uh, probably low thirties.
• 2:44
  I don't know.
• 2:44
  I can check for sure.
• 2:47
  It's fifty-two here.
• 2:48
  It's not going to get any higher than
• 2:49
  that today, but it's fifty-two here.
• 2:52
  Tomorrow morning,
• 2:53
  it's going to be in the high thirties.
• 2:56
  Twenty-eight.
• 2:58
  No, thank you.
• 2:58
  Yeah, and we're only like,
• 3:02
  we have one day in the forties,
• 3:04
  and other than that,
• 3:04
  it's I think this weekend is supposed to
• 3:07
  be a high of fifteen.
• 3:09
  I'll be in Arizona.
• 3:10
  Okay.
• 3:12
  I wish I was, man.
• 3:19
  I've already watched it, man.
• 3:22
  I already watched the bro sesh.
• 3:25
  I get into those bro-ing out sessions
• 3:27
  because back then is when I first started
• 3:30
  doing CrossFit.
• 3:31
  So it's like a walk down memory lane
• 3:33
  for me.
• 3:34
  But I know a lot of newer people
• 3:35
  to the space don't even know what those
• 3:37
  events were or what they were doing back
• 3:40
  then.
• 3:41
  I really dig it.
• 3:43
  I enjoy them for that reason.
• 3:45
  And because I just like hearing them tell
• 3:47
  stories about stuff that you've never
• 3:49
  heard about that happened, you know,
• 3:51
  back then.
• 3:52
  And especially, well,
• 3:53
  like they were still trying to figure
• 3:54
  stuff out.
• 3:55
  Like when Rich tells that story,
• 3:59
  like the first time they did two workouts
• 4:01
  in one day and people were like,
• 4:02
  you all are going to die.
• 4:04
  Like just freaking out and stuff like
• 4:06
  that.
• 4:06
  Like I geek out on stuff like that.
• 4:09
  That's funny to me.
• 4:12
  Um, vindicate.
• 4:14
  I need to create a product that everybody
• 4:16
  complains about,
• 4:16
  but everybody still buys it.
• 4:21
  Yeah.
• 4:21
  Have you considered,
• 4:22
  have you considered starting the open?
• 4:24
  Because that's something that everybody
• 4:26
  buys and pitches about the entire time
• 4:27
  it's going on.
• 4:29
  Um, yeah, I was going to say,
• 4:31
  do you think about buying CrossFit?
• 4:33
  Yeah.
• 4:37
  Yeah.
• 4:37
  I think Travis has got CrossFit by
• 4:38
  CrossFit money.
• 4:40
  Fairly certain.
• 4:40
  I'm sure.
• 4:41
  He's been selling a lot of shirts this
• 4:43
  month.
• 4:44
  He's got, he's on his five,
• 4:45
  five per day.
• 4:46
  And we are.
• 4:47
  Yeah.
• 4:48
  Five,
• 4:48
  he's on his five per day to the
• 4:50
  end of the year.
• 4:50
  He's got to have,
• 4:51
  buy CrossFit money by now.
• 4:56
  Train all of it's eighty-two.
• 4:57
  I think she's in South Florida, right?
• 5:00
  Oh, I have absolutely no idea.
• 5:02
  I think so.
• 5:02
  But that tracks, if it's eighty-two,
• 5:04
  she's probably in South Florida.
• 5:06
  You know what's good is the Emma Lawson,
• 5:08
  Manon Anganese video for WFP.
• 5:11
  I have not even said...
• 5:13
  WFP doesn't even show up in my algorithm
• 5:15
  anymore.
• 5:15
  I need to find it, though.
• 5:17
  I need to... Because that is coming up.
• 5:22
  A roadcaster makes money.
• 5:23
  CrossFit, not so much.
• 5:26
  I know.
• 5:27
  I do not want to buy another roadcaster.
• 5:28
  This one is a few years old.
• 5:30
  It's made us some trips.
• 5:34
  I...
• 5:36
  When you pay that much for something,
• 5:37
  it should work longer than a few years,
• 5:40
  I would think.
• 5:44
  They don't make them like they used to.
• 5:48
  I do have to get one thing off
• 5:49
  my chest before we get into the other
• 5:51
  stuff,
• 5:51
  and that is everybody talking about the
• 5:54
  Stan Bears game yesterday.
• 5:58
  everybody saw it.
• 5:59
  Right.
• 6:00
  So for like the first time,
• 6:01
  the bears got some media attention two
• 6:04
  weeks in a row.
• 6:06
  They had the black Friday game.
• 6:07
  And now this week, the, the,
• 6:08
  the game of the week on Fox coming
• 6:13
  into this season,
• 6:14
  I had very little hope that the bears
• 6:17
  would finish five hundred or better new
• 6:21
  coach developing quarterback.
• 6:24
  We knew we didn't have a defensive line.
• 6:27
  then there were injuries piling up
• 6:30
  everything so when we end up nine and
• 6:33
  three going into this game like i'm
• 6:35
  playing with house money right because we
• 6:39
  are already have guaranteed a five hundred
• 6:40
  season about better than five hundred
• 6:43
  season and then they played the packers
• 6:45
  and they played them down to the last
• 6:47
  freaking play of the game and they could
• 6:49
  have won that game
• 6:51
  So I'm happy to go on the road
• 6:55
  into their house, play them that tough,
• 6:57
  and we get them in two weeks to
• 6:59
  play them again.
• 7:01
  Everybody is just ripping Caleb for the
• 7:03
  last pass.
• 7:05
  And yes, could it have been thrown better?
• 7:06
  Could it have been thrown to the back
• 7:08
  corner?
• 7:08
  It sure could have.
• 7:10
  But when you're rolling left...
• 7:12
  and you're right-handed,
• 7:14
  and the way you have to flip your
• 7:15
  hips to be able to throw that ball,
• 7:19
  you have to slow down all of your
• 7:21
  own momentum to flip the hips to get
• 7:23
  that ball out.
• 7:25
  And then you don't have the gusto on
• 7:27
  the ball that you normally would.
• 7:32
  It came up short.
• 7:33
  On the other hand, the tight end,
• 7:36
  he threw it with enough loft that the
• 7:39
  tight end should have made a play on
• 7:41
  the ball and not just waited for it.
• 7:46
  Come to it.
• 7:46
  The defensive back was five, ten,
• 7:47
  two hundred pounds.
• 7:48
  The tight end is six, five, two fifty.
• 7:52
  Like if you have a jump ball,
• 7:54
  the tight end has a better shot.
• 7:56
  I would say so.
• 7:58
  Right.
• 7:59
  So that would have been OK.
• 8:02
  The other thing is everybody's saying they
• 8:04
  should have thrown it to DJ Moore.
• 8:05
  DJ Moore was leaking out the backside,
• 8:09
  so you're running left.
• 8:10
  He is now behind Caleb.
• 8:12
  To flip your hips over a hundred and
• 8:16
  eighty degrees to make the throw to DJ
• 8:18
  Moore would have been asking so much.
• 8:21
  Yes, he came open last minute,
• 8:24
  but to stop flip your hips with two
• 8:27
  defensive guys now charging at you
• 8:30
  And stopping your velocity entirely going
• 8:33
  in one direction?
• 8:35
  Impossible to ask.
• 8:37
  Monday morning quarterbacks.
• 8:41
  So,
• 8:42
  and I actually was in the Bears chat
• 8:44
  this morning,
• 8:45
  which I don't normally jump into.
• 8:48
  And everybody's fighting with me.
• 8:50
  So, I'm a little feisty.
• 8:52
  And then I tune into Savan and everybody's
• 8:54
  saying that it was a shitty throw.
• 8:56
  Sure,
• 8:57
  it wasn't the best throw in the world.
• 8:59
  But...
• 9:00
  what they were what he was being asked
• 9:02
  to do in that situation
• 9:05
  was very, very difficult.
• 9:07
  And it was a play they ran last
• 9:09
  week identically against Philadelphia.
• 9:12
  And if you watch the beginning of the
• 9:13
  play,
• 9:14
  you see like six Green Bay Packers running
• 9:18
  exactly straight right in their defensive
• 9:21
  right, offensive left,
• 9:22
  right to where Caleb's going to go.
• 9:24
  They knew he was rolling out to that
• 9:26
  side.
• 9:27
  They made a picket fence where he could
• 9:29
  not get the first down with his legs.
• 9:32
  So they knew it was coming.
• 9:33
  I don't know.
• 9:36
  So I just want to – I don't
• 9:38
  want to give them an excuse.
• 9:39
  I just want to say, hey,
• 9:41
  it's one game.
• 9:42
  They're still nine and four.
• 9:46
  We've got four games to go.
• 9:50
  Just relax.
• 9:52
  It's almost exactly the Saints record
• 9:55
  flipped.
• 9:57
  It's now three and ten.
• 10:00
  Could be worse.
• 10:01
  You could be the Browns losing to the
• 10:03
  Titans.
• 10:03
  Correct.
• 10:04
  Correct.
• 10:07
  um stroud had bad throws too every
• 10:10
  quarterback has bad throws patrick mahomes
• 10:12
  threw three interceptions last night
• 10:15
  considered the best quarterback in the
• 10:17
  world and he throws three picks last night
• 10:20
  every quarterback has that so there it is
• 10:24
  just had to get that off my chest
• 10:26
  and the last thing to get off my
• 10:27
  chest notre dame didn't make the college
• 10:29
  football playoff they lost head-to-head to
• 10:31
  miami that was their fault
• 10:35
  They don't belong to a conference.
• 10:36
  That is their fault.
• 10:38
  Last year,
• 10:38
  when they made it to the national
• 10:39
  championship game and got twenty million
• 10:41
  dollars and didn't have to share it with
• 10:42
  anybody,
• 10:43
  they got all that money to themselves.
• 10:45
  The rest of these schools have to share
• 10:46
  it with their conference.
• 10:48
  And because they're in a conference,
• 10:49
  they have a better shot at making the
• 10:50
  playoffs.
• 10:52
  Don't bitch about not making it because
• 10:54
  you want to be greedy and take all
• 10:55
  the money for yourself as an independent.
• 10:58
  And this whole, like,
• 10:59
  I'm taking my ball and going home and
• 11:01
  I'm not going to the bowl game that
• 11:04
  you have designated us to.
• 11:05
  We're not going.
• 11:07
  Freaking crybaby, shut the hell up.
• 11:11
  I'm so sick of your name, fans.
• 11:13
  Go play your bowl game.
• 11:16
  How hard is that?
• 11:18
  LSU is going to the Texas Bowl to
• 11:20
  play the Houston Cougars.
• 11:23
  Why?
• 11:23
  Because that's where we deserve to go
• 11:25
  after this year.
• 11:27
  But they're going.
• 11:28
  And they're going to play like,
• 11:32
  tell us how you really,
• 11:33
  that's how I really feel.
• 11:34
  I'm so sick of Notre Dame.
• 11:37
  Um, yeah,
• 11:39
  we're going to the pinstripe bowl,
• 11:40
  Penn state versus Clemson and the
• 11:42
  pinstripe bowl,
• 11:43
  both biggest disappointments in college
• 11:45
  football this year.
• 11:46
  So should be fun.
• 11:47
  Yeah.
• 11:51
  Uh,
• 11:53
  jake dude i updated my ios last night
• 11:57
  yesterday yeah it is messing me up see
• 12:02
  mine's working just fine i guess i gotta
• 12:05
  look it it's moved everything
• 12:07
  didn't move none of them when i screenshot
• 12:10
  something to make a thumbnail or like now
• 12:13
  it wants to automatically crop it for me
• 12:16
  and and then the save to photos is
• 12:19
  moved from the left side to the right
• 12:20
  side and it's a check mark now instead
• 12:23
  of down and it's like what the hell
• 12:25
  do you have to change everything all at
• 12:27
  once i messed with too much of it
• 12:32
  i guess i guess that's why i'm like
• 12:34
  my mind is working fine
• 12:36
  When you do a podcast and you're trying
• 12:37
  to make thumbnails and you're trying to
• 12:38
  get stuff ready for the show,
• 12:40
  everything changes on your phone.
• 12:43
  Like, it is maddening.
• 12:45
  And I'm not a spring chicken, man.
• 12:47
  Fifty-five years old.
• 12:49
  Trying to keep up with this technology is
• 12:50
  not easy.
• 12:53
  I understand that.
• 12:54
  I feel like most of the time you're
• 12:54
  more technologically savvy than I am,
• 12:56
  so...
• 13:01
  uh it's not affected corey because he uses
• 13:04
  a nokia fifty one ten apparently
• 13:06
  indestructible baby i was playing snake
• 13:10
  earlier break the record no never never
• 13:16
  never
• 13:19
  You use the phone to make it.
• 13:20
  I don't use my phone to make my
• 13:21
  thumbnails, Jonathan,
• 13:22
  but I sometimes grab pictures that I have
• 13:26
  in different locations to make the,
• 13:30
  to do the art.
• 13:30
  And I've got to like screenshot it to
• 13:32
  be quick.
• 13:34
  And sometimes I use my phone because I'm
• 13:36
  in a work meeting and I can do
• 13:37
  it under my desk while I'm in the
• 13:41
  meeting.
• 13:41
  Yeah, no, I'm paying attention.
• 13:48
  Absolutely.
• 13:48
  Yeah.
• 13:50
  Exactly.
• 13:53
  Exactly.
• 13:54
  What'd you guys say?
• 13:54
  Yeah, no, I got that.
• 14:01
  I'm a, I'm a, I'm a hooligan.
• 14:03
  I am.
• 14:04
  It's whatever it takes.
• 14:05
  Cause I don't even know what we're going
• 14:06
  to talk about on the show until about.
• 14:08
  As I,
• 14:08
  as I try to get through all the
• 14:12
  CrossFit news to make sure I catch
• 14:13
  everything.
• 14:13
  Sometimes not even then.
• 14:19
  Do you know how to slow the videos
• 14:20
  down on reels?
• 14:23
  The three dots?
• 14:25
  I didn't even know you could slow down
• 14:26
  the video on a reel.
• 14:27
  Like while you're watching it, Jake?
• 14:28
  I assume that's what he means.
• 14:36
  Larry Young, I feel this.
• 14:37
  After trying to run yesterday,
• 14:39
  I already felt eighty-five,
• 14:40
  and now phone is wonky.
• 14:41
  Oh.
• 14:48
  You can change it whilst you watch.
• 14:51
  Sean J.
• 14:55
  Did not even know that was functionality
• 14:57
  on a reel.
• 15:00
  So I could have slowed down the guy
• 15:02
  dragging the C-II bike across the finish
• 15:04
  line at the IF-III.
• 15:08
  I laughed so hard at that because in
• 15:12
  my head, I just kept going, how?
• 15:14
  Like, how?
• 15:16
  How did that happen?
• 15:18
  It looked like his shirt hung up on
• 15:20
  it.
• 15:21
  Yeah.
• 15:22
  I think Jenny said last night in our
• 15:23
  show that it was like footloose on the
• 15:25
  tractor where the lace got stuck around
• 15:27
  the pedal.
• 15:32
  Here's what I don't understand.
• 15:36
  Well,
• 15:36
  a couple of things that there's actually a
• 15:38
  whole lot I don't understand,
• 15:38
  but as far as that video is concerned,
• 15:40
  number one, how did that happen?
• 15:41
  Number two,
• 15:42
  those things are not easy to drag.
• 15:44
  They are heavy.
• 15:46
  You're not just going to pick one up
• 15:47
  and toss one.
• 15:48
  So the fact that he was dragging it
• 15:50
  and got it across the line that fast.
• 15:52
  Three,
• 15:52
  the fact that in that video alone he
• 15:54
  beat two people dragging a C-II bike.
• 15:58
  Yeah,
• 15:59
  I was pointing out the two people he
• 16:01
  beat and they have to be thinking like,
• 16:03
  son of a bitch,
• 16:05
  I can't even beat the guy with the
• 16:07
  bike attached to his leg.
• 16:09
  Attached to a C-II bike sprinting across
• 16:13
  the line.
• 16:16
  Oh, Amanda fillers.
• 16:17
  I thought that was a sled until I,
• 16:19
  until I saw you show it on Clydesdale
• 16:20
  last night.
• 16:23
  Yeah, bro.
• 16:25
  Insane.
• 16:26
  I, so I've got to ask you,
• 16:28
  and I,
• 16:28
  and I put this up on the thumbnail.
• 16:30
  I have three happened this last week.
• 16:32
  U S didn't even send any contingent to
• 16:35
  the, I have three worlds.
• 16:36
  It was held in Lithuania.
• 16:38
  Canada did most of the European countries
• 16:42
  did, uh,
• 16:44
  And all this was created to make this
• 16:47
  feasible as an Olympic sport.
• 16:51
  I ask you,
• 16:52
  do you give a shit whether this is
• 16:54
  an Olympic sport or not?
• 16:58
  No.
• 16:58
  I don't either.
• 17:00
  Are we trying to make something that
• 17:01
  nobody really wants?
• 17:03
  Stop trying to make fetch happen.
• 17:09
  Why does it need to be an Olympic
• 17:10
  sport?
• 17:11
  Why does breakdancing need to be an
• 17:13
  Olympic sport?
• 17:15
  Why does ultimate Frisbee need to be in
• 17:17
  the Olympics?
• 17:17
  Why does... No,
• 17:19
  not everything needs to be in the Olympics
• 17:21
  for it.
• 17:21
  Just because you think it's cool and it's
• 17:24
  niche and it can be highlighted once every
• 17:27
  four years or two years or however they
• 17:29
  do it now.
• 17:31
  No, that's insane.
• 17:33
  It does not need to be in the
• 17:34
  Olympics.
• 17:35
  It's the only way you can represent your
• 17:37
  country at CrossFit.
• 17:37
  That's not true.
• 17:39
  The games put your flag up by your
• 17:41
  name
• 17:42
  At the CrossFit Games,
• 17:44
  when they hand you out your uniforms,
• 17:46
  it usually has your country flag on the
• 17:49
  uniform.
• 17:50
  Yep.
• 17:51
  So you are representing your country in
• 17:53
  addition to yourself and your affiliate at
• 17:57
  the CrossFit Games.
• 18:01
  But I do like this.
• 18:02
  Imagine the moment he had to decide to
• 18:04
  just do it.
• 18:05
  Messing around for a few seconds and
• 18:06
  thinking, sought it.
• 18:07
  Sought it.
• 18:08
  I'm done.
• 18:10
  I can't get it undone.
• 18:11
  I'm just going.
• 18:19
  I also knew when I did the lift,
• 18:22
  I fit run program.
• 18:23
  I was like, this isn't bad.
• 18:25
  Then I was like,
• 18:26
  did I just think that I never liked
• 18:28
  the pre generated shit.
• 18:30
  Father time has one, I guess.
• 18:35
  Who wants sports to become an Olympic
• 18:37
  sport to begin with?
• 18:39
  Who wanted skateboarding or surfing or
• 18:41
  breakdancing to become one?
• 18:43
  I have no freaking idea.
• 18:46
  Olympic sports should be swimming, track,
• 18:49
  figure skating, gymnastics,
• 18:51
  like the big ones.
• 18:53
  And I'll even give you like curling and
• 18:55
  jujitsu and fencing, right?
• 18:58
  They've had a home in the Olympics for
• 18:59
  a very, very long time.
• 19:01
  But freaking breakdancing,
• 19:02
  are you kidding me?
• 19:04
  Yeah,
• 19:04
  as soon as I saw that was announced,
• 19:05
  I was like,
• 19:06
  this is going to be an absolute shit
• 19:08
  show.
• 19:09
  And it turns out I was right.
• 19:11
  That didn't happen real often.
• 19:12
  So like the fact that whatever that
• 19:15
  Australian woman's name was that just came
• 19:17
  out just completely.
• 19:20
  I almost wonder if she did it on
• 19:22
  purpose.
• 19:24
  Like just to show how stupid,
• 19:27
  you know what I mean?
• 19:28
  Like, hey, breakdancing, really?
• 19:30
  I love breakdancing.
• 19:32
  Let me be clear.
• 19:34
  It's super fun to watch clips on Instagram
• 19:37
  or YouTube or whatever,
• 19:38
  watch people break dancing.
• 19:39
  I love it.
• 19:39
  I've been dancing all my life.
• 19:41
  That is fun as shit to watch.
• 19:42
  It's not Olympic sport.
• 19:43
  It's not.
• 19:47
  All right.
• 19:48
  Jake wants to throw down.
• 19:49
  I think there's a very big difference in
• 19:50
  the way USA feels about international
• 19:52
  sport and the rest of the world.
• 19:54
  Your top five sports aren't really
• 19:55
  international,
• 19:56
  so you don't really see the value in
• 19:57
  it.
• 19:59
  I don't agree with you on this.
• 20:01
  I do believe that we get USA phobia
• 20:04
  or USA...
• 20:06
  Mania would mean mania.
• 20:08
  That's it.
• 20:09
  USA mania during the Olympics and for the
• 20:12
  sports that it means something like
• 20:13
  soccer, like the Olympic sports that,
• 20:17
  that have been there forever and matter.
• 20:19
  It does mean a lot.
• 20:22
  And I mean,
• 20:23
  I remember watching the U S women's team
• 20:25
  the year they made the run for the
• 20:27
  gold medal.
• 20:29
  The USA Canada hockey matches in both
• 20:32
  men's and women's have,
• 20:34
  I've watched every second of those.
• 20:36
  Um, so I like,
• 20:38
  I'm into that support my country thing in
• 20:42
  the sports that it's meant to be in.
• 20:44
  I just don't think CrossFit needs to be
• 20:46
  one of them.
• 20:49
  It's already a global sport.
• 20:50
  We,
• 20:51
  we compete against everybody
• 20:53
  internationally all season long.
• 20:55
  There's nothing special about it.
• 20:57
  Just taking place at this event called the
• 20:59
  Olympics.
• 21:00
  No, and not, and,
• 21:05
  I'm going to preface this by saying I
• 21:07
  know very little about the IM-III as it
• 21:09
  goes,
• 21:09
  but if you're segmenting stuff into
• 21:13
  various like endurance events,
• 21:15
  a gymnastics-only event,
• 21:17
  a weightlifting-only event,
• 21:18
  that's not CrossFit.
• 21:19
  That is individual events.
• 21:22
  A CrossFit event would be gymnastics,
• 21:25
  weightlifting, and it's doing heli, right?
• 21:29
  Kettlebell swings, running, and pull-ups.
• 21:31
  That's an actual CrossFit event.
• 21:33
  You're going to have
• 21:34
  If you actually want to have it at
• 21:36
  the Olympics,
• 21:36
  it needs to be actual CrossFit,
• 21:38
  which you're never going to do because
• 21:39
  it's, you know, varied, not random, right?
• 21:44
  It's never the same thing,
• 21:45
  unknown and unknowable.
• 21:46
  That's what I was looking for.
• 21:47
  So I just don't,
• 21:50
  if you're going to have it,
• 21:51
  that needs to be actual CrossFit.
• 21:52
  I don't think you can separate the
• 21:54
  individual things out like IFC seems to
• 21:57
  do.
• 21:59
  And that's me assuming that part of it.
• 22:03
  So, Andrew,
• 22:04
  I do understand what he was talking about.
• 22:06
  Our big four are not Olympic sports,
• 22:08
  but hockey and basketball are in the
• 22:10
  Olympics.
• 22:12
  And you compete in those.
• 22:14
  Baseball and football are the only two
• 22:15
  that do not.
• 22:17
  And, hell,
• 22:17
  flag football is being put in there in,
• 22:19
  what, twenty-six or twenty-eight?
• 22:22
  I think so, yeah.
• 22:23
  It's coming soon.
• 22:26
  I just... I'm not a... And I...
• 22:30
  I am go USA all the way through
• 22:32
  the Olympics all the time.
• 22:35
  Baseball was in there and it got removed.
• 22:38
  You are right.
• 22:39
  The movement doctor.
• 22:41
  That's CJ, right?
• 22:43
  Yeah.
• 22:43
  Yeah.
• 22:44
  Baseball was there and was removed,
• 22:47
  which I didn't understand that.
• 22:50
  But anyway,
• 22:55
  I would say that hockey is a truly
• 22:57
  international sport.
• 22:58
  That's probably my,
• 23:01
  Second favorite sport of the big ones,
• 23:04
  not counting CrossFit football,
• 23:05
  then hockey.
• 23:07
  Um, when we had the,
• 23:09
  when the NHL for their all-star game did
• 23:11
  the big four or whatever it was,
• 23:13
  and they had four countries represented,
• 23:15
  man, that was hugely exciting.
• 23:17
  Um,
• 23:19
  so anyway i didn't need it to be
• 23:22
  like a huge thing but i just don't
• 23:25
  think crossfit needs to be an olympic
• 23:26
  sport i think we have bigger issues to
• 23:29
  to fix and get right in our own
• 23:32
  seasons than trying to create something
• 23:35
  that would be an olympic sport yeah um
• 23:40
  hey look kudos to i-three if they actually
• 23:42
  make it happen good for them i just
• 23:45
  i don't see the point
• 23:48
  So I didn't have this on my rundown,
• 23:50
  but I know this is Legends Week.
• 23:52
  It is.
• 23:54
  And you are preparing for that yourself.
• 23:58
  I know some of our other listeners,
• 24:00
  I saw Denise Moore is getting ready to
• 24:02
  compete.
• 24:05
  I'm sure Cindy and a bunch of our
• 24:07
  other friends are doing it as well.
• 24:11
  When are you flying out to Arizona?
• 24:13
  We fly out Thursday morning.
• 24:15
  I should be...
• 24:18
  I did not say I was going to
• 24:20
  be the mustache man.
• 24:23
  I am flying out Thursday morning.
• 24:26
  We take off at seven and we will
• 24:29
  be in.
• 24:30
  We had a direct flight.
• 24:31
  God bless my wife.
• 24:33
  We will land in Phoenix at Sky Harbor
• 24:37
  right around like ten o'clock in Phoenix
• 24:40
  time.
• 24:43
  And the competition begins Thursday or
• 24:45
  Friday?
• 24:46
  Friday.
• 24:47
  Friday.
• 24:48
  Thursday,
• 24:48
  we got to check in and get our
• 24:52
  shirts, athlete briefing, et cetera,
• 24:56
  et cetera, et cetera.
• 24:57
  And then Friday,
• 24:58
  we still were supposed to be getting our
• 25:01
  actual heat schedules and the workouts
• 25:04
  were supposed to go out today,
• 25:05
  but we haven't gotten them so far.
• 25:08
  So I got my email up just waiting
• 25:10
  for it to come through.
• 25:12
  Very cool.
• 25:13
  And you've already been,
• 25:14
  they already did an online athlete
• 25:17
  briefing?
• 25:17
  They did an online, sort of, I mean,
• 25:20
  they walked us through the flow of all
• 25:25
  the workouts.
• 25:26
  So, like, the swim, we're swimming.
• 25:29
  And then there's another one, like,
• 25:32
  fan bag cleans and thrusters and wall
• 25:35
  walks and wall fans,
• 25:36
  fixing handstand push-ups.
• 25:37
  And, like, they weren't supposed to have
• 25:41
  rep schemes and time domains and whatnot.
• 25:43
  And for the most part,
• 25:44
  they got that down.
• 25:46
  Some of them,
• 25:47
  they like forgot to take off four rounds
• 25:51
  for the sandbag clean one.
• 25:52
  They,
• 25:53
  there's one that's dumbbell snatches and,
• 25:55
  uh,
• 25:55
  very box jump overs and it's three and
• 25:58
  three, six and six.
• 26:00
  Like it goes up by threes,
• 26:02
  every single one.
• 26:03
  And it's, uh, according to John Glice, uh,
• 26:06
  Mark's talking about it's four minutes
• 26:07
  long.
• 26:08
  I missed that part on the call.
• 26:11
  Yeah.
• 26:12
  So if people have never been there,
• 26:14
  it's held at Arizona State University.
• 26:16
  It is one of the coolest complexes to
• 26:18
  hold a competition.
• 26:20
  There are two running floors and an
• 26:22
  Olympic sized swimming pool right outside
• 26:24
  the door.
• 26:26
  And so it's all within eight steps of
• 26:30
  one another.
• 26:31
  You can literally walk from both inside
• 26:34
  floors and literally go through one door
• 26:35
  and you're at the pool.
• 26:37
  Right.
• 26:38
  So it's a beautiful complex.
• 26:40
  The swimming events are really cool there
• 26:42
  because it is a massive.
• 26:44
  And what they do is they take the
• 26:46
  fifty meters and make it the width so
• 26:49
  it can have like twenty lanes.
• 26:54
  You can get through everything amazingly
• 26:57
  fast.
• 26:58
  The weather there is always stunning.
• 27:01
  Arizona's freaking awesome in December and
• 27:03
  January for someone who comes from a land
• 27:05
  of twenty eight degrees.
• 27:09
  But it's a great event to go to
• 27:11
  and hang out with.
• 27:12
  And of course,
• 27:13
  the Masters athletes are so amenable to
• 27:15
  just hanging out and talking.
• 27:17
  It's really a tremendous event to go to
• 27:20
  if you're in the area.
• 27:22
  I highly suggest it.
• 27:24
  It's a lot of fun.
• 27:25
  It really is.
• 27:27
  Very well run.
• 27:29
  I mean, everything runs on time.
• 27:32
  The announcers are always great.
• 27:34
  I mean, vendors are cool.
• 27:35
  I cannot...
• 27:39
  agree with you more possibly agree with
• 27:41
  you more like the the venue itself at
• 27:43
  Arizona State is fantastic and the weather
• 27:49
  coming from somebody who's like it's going
• 27:51
  to be colder here than it will be
• 27:53
  in Arizona which is not usually the case
• 27:55
  but there's no humidity so like I get
• 27:57
  to go over there and actually breathe my
• 27:59
  air instead of drink it like I normally
• 28:01
  do which is pretty cool for me
• 28:04
  Amanda says the best complex in the
• 28:06
  weather is amazing.
• 28:07
  That could not agree more.
• 28:09
  Absolutely.
• 28:10
  Absolutely.
• 28:11
  And plenty of way most,
• 28:12
  if you want to like hop in one
• 28:14
  of those to get from place to place.
• 28:17
  Sure.
• 28:17
  Don't not at all.
• 28:18
  Not even close.
• 28:19
  I watched, uh, one of my best friends,
• 28:22
  Gareth and his wife get into one, uh,
• 28:24
  last year.
• 28:25
  And me and Robbie were still sitting there
• 28:26
  at the Airbnb and we're like, okay,
• 28:28
  never see y'all again.
• 28:29
  All right.
• 28:30
  Bye.
• 28:31
  Like, I don't know if y'all ever seen,
• 28:33
  uh,
• 28:33
  Terminator,
• 28:34
  but this is how everybody dies.
• 28:35
  Right here,
• 28:36
  you just start putting your life in the
• 28:37
  hands of the robot.
• 28:39
  Yeah,
• 28:41
  I am too big of a control freak
• 28:42
  for that, man.
• 28:43
  There's no possible way on God's green
• 28:45
  earth I am getting into a Waymo.
• 28:47
  Not happening.
• 28:49
  We got on Turo.
• 28:51
  Rented.
• 28:52
  You have it.
• 28:56
  So...
• 29:02
  Ms.
• 29:02
  Winter, Ms.
• 29:03
  Trey Dolls.
• 29:04
  It's funny you should mention a crime
• 29:06
  scene.
• 29:07
  So last year we left Arizona State after
• 29:13
  I think the weightlifting event.
• 29:16
  So we stayed a little bit late.
• 29:17
  We wanted to watch Scott and Jake go
• 29:20
  through the weightlifting event.
• 29:23
  We leave going back to our Airbnb and
• 29:28
  On the main drag that we were on,
• 29:29
  because we weren't ten minutes from
• 29:32
  Arizona State,
• 29:32
  all the roads were blocked off with the
• 29:34
  police.
• 29:35
  And when I say all of them,
• 29:35
  like as far as you could see.
• 29:39
  Police cars everywhere.
• 29:40
  We had to make, like,
• 29:42
  get a ways to take us through some
• 29:43
  neighborhood and whatnot.
• 29:44
  So naturally,
• 29:46
  we're trying to figure out what the heck
• 29:50
  is going on.
• 29:52
  It turns out somebody got murdered.
• 29:54
  right close by when i said close by
• 29:56
  like we had to go into the neighborhood
• 29:58
  we were staying in via not the way
• 30:00
  we normally would like i would have called
• 30:01
  it the back way um to get back
• 30:04
  to our airbnb and that was the night
• 30:06
  we also decided we were going to go
• 30:07
  swim in the pool whenever we got back
• 30:10
  and then like it was to the point
• 30:11
  where there's a helicopter flying flying
• 30:15
  around with the searchlight like you see
• 30:16
  on the movie like looking into people's
• 30:18
  backyards and shit like that it was and
• 30:20
  then of course the three of us are
• 30:22
  back there in the pool going
• 30:24
  if the murderer just jumps over the fence
• 30:26
  and like coming through like all the
• 30:28
  police are coming through and i was like
• 30:29
  he can have the backyard dog like i'm
• 30:33
  not hanging out trying to fight nobody
• 30:35
  they just killed somebody no thank you uh
• 30:39
  andrew says everyone is going to be sure
• 30:41
  to say hi sometimes it gets so busy
• 30:43
  i don't get to meet people andrew
• 30:47
  apparently judged me last year and i
• 30:48
  didn't know who the hell he was
• 30:50
  uh jody says andrew i brought a checklist
• 30:53
  of people to the games i wanted to
• 30:54
  meet it helped for sure apparently i
• 30:56
  didn't get to make that list jody thought
• 30:59
  i was on the list thought i was
• 31:01
  on the list and you know even how
• 31:04
  organized is that you understand jody's
• 31:06
  like all right check that guy off my
• 31:07
  list moving on to the next one yeah
• 31:13
  and even she even got to use the
• 31:15
  tickets i gave away on this show and
• 31:18
  i still didn't get to meet jody
• 31:21
  Can you believe that?
• 31:22
  I had an important cabinet meeting.
• 31:27
  Huh?
• 31:28
  That's a good one.
• 31:31
  Jody had a cabinet meeting.
• 31:36
  Yeah.
• 31:38
  I did see the reads.
• 31:39
  I met the reads.
• 31:42
  I met the reads at MFC.
• 31:43
  That was awesome.
• 31:46
  um but i i saw judy for sure
• 31:49
  in at the games and her daughter uh
• 31:52
  and then at the age group games i
• 31:54
  saw david judy and daughter don't read his
• 32:06
  best read that is correct um okay so
• 32:08
  did you see any of hiller's video
• 32:10
  yesterday about marketing of crossfit
• 32:13
  Absolutely.
• 32:14
  I saw it within ten minutes of getting
• 32:16
  notification.
• 32:17
  I watched it.
• 32:17
  Thoughts?
• 32:21
  He's a hundred percent correct.
• 32:25
  He's a hundred percent correct.
• 32:28
  I understand to a degree,
• 32:31
  I understand what CrossFit is trying to
• 32:34
  do, like the media stuff here lately.
• 32:36
  And the stuff they're putting out is not
• 32:37
  bad,
• 32:38
  but it is recycled almost precisely from
• 32:41
  what it was
• 32:43
  probably in what, in what, in that area.
• 32:48
  And they're not doing anything new.
• 32:49
  And who is it targeting?
• 32:53
  Because the only people that see it,
• 32:54
  from what I can see,
• 32:55
  are the people who are already doing
• 32:57
  CrossFit.
• 32:57
  It's like having CrossFit commercials
• 32:59
  during the CrossFit Games.
• 33:00
  Probably not necessary.
• 33:03
  If you want to get your message out
• 33:04
  to people,
• 33:06
  it needs to be on a wide range.
• 33:10
  to where people can actually see it,
• 33:13
  who might be affected by it,
• 33:14
  who aren't doing CrossFit or who aren't,
• 33:17
  or might be on the fence,
• 33:18
  something along those lines.
• 33:20
  And for them not to be leveraging Jason,
• 33:26
  Tia,
• 33:26
  which I understand Tia is pregnant right
• 33:28
  now, but I mean,
• 33:29
  there's plenty enough footage and I'm sure
• 33:31
  she would be happy to do it.
• 33:32
  She got up at three o'clock in the
• 33:33
  morning to do the fricking announcement,
• 33:35
  you know, a couple months ago.
• 33:38
  Like she's all in still.
• 33:43
  It's an easy get that they are just
• 33:45
  missing completely,
• 33:46
  and I do not understand that at all.
• 33:50
  Jody claims that she looked for me the
• 33:52
  entire time.
• 33:59
  Kenneth,
• 34:00
  Corey sounds like he's calling in on a
• 34:01
  roadcaster.
• 34:02
  Yeah,
• 34:03
  we tried to figure it out beforehand.
• 34:06
  I don't know what it is.
• 34:07
  It's something off.
• 34:09
  He's got some new stuff,
• 34:11
  and we're trying to figure it out.
• 34:15
  When he gets back from Legends,
• 34:17
  we're going to get him a microphone.
• 34:19
  Clear this thing up.
• 34:23
  Here's what I thought he said.
• 34:25
  Not what I thought he said,
• 34:26
  but what he said about the Sidney Sweeney
• 34:29
  ad is a perfect example.
• 34:31
  Copy it.
• 34:33
  Copy it.
• 34:35
  Flat out.
• 34:36
  Why not?
• 34:38
  What difference does it make?
• 34:39
  You don't have to do it word for
• 34:42
  word,
• 34:44
  but
• 34:45
  copy it and use it because it's effective
• 34:48
  and it's new and it's not the same
• 34:51
  old stuff you just keep saying repeating
• 34:53
  ad nauseum over and over and over again
• 34:56
  and leverage the fittest guy on earth who
• 34:58
  is sitting there literally just making
• 35:00
  videos at his house with his metal on
• 35:03
  doing push-ups and then talking to his dog
• 35:06
  like that's that's not it's not doing
• 35:10
  anybody any good hey i'm jason hopper i
• 35:13
  play for clemson
• 35:16
  I think has found your mic.
• 35:19
  Corey looks like he's in the doctor's
• 35:21
  office waiting for his butt exam.
• 35:22
  Maybe that's where the mic is.
• 35:32
  Anyway,
• 35:33
  use him because I am certain he would
• 35:37
  be more than happy to do it.
• 35:39
  Hey, I'm Jason Hopper.
• 35:42
  I play tight end at Clemson.
• 35:46
  I am not as good as guy on
• 35:47
  earth.
• 35:49
  I don't even think it has to be
• 35:50
  Jason.
• 35:51
  It can be any of the popular athletes,
• 35:53
  right?
• 35:54
  Correct.
• 35:56
  When they first came out with F the
• 35:57
  quick fix, I was like, okay,
• 35:59
  that's pretty cool.
• 36:01
  You're, you're,
• 36:01
  you're trying to recapture that rebellious
• 36:04
  attitude of what CrossFit was.
• 36:08
  Fifteen years ago.
• 36:11
  Then you come out with forging elite
• 36:12
  fitness.
• 36:13
  Everybody's endeared to that.
• 36:15
  So now you're pulling in the base.
• 36:17
  Okay.
• 36:17
  I get that.
• 36:19
  Do I think it was perfect?
• 36:20
  No, there's no action item.
• 36:21
  There's no way to tell me how to
• 36:22
  join an affiliate.
• 36:23
  There's no way to actually help me take
• 36:26
  action on anything you're saying.
• 36:29
  Now with the cult thing, dude, are you,
• 36:32
  are you just going to get with the
• 36:34
  programming and going down their list of
• 36:35
  t-shirts?
• 36:37
  Because I swear to God,
• 36:39
  now it's almost comical how much it's just
• 36:44
  copying what has already been done.
• 36:47
  And that's where I'm really frustrated
• 36:49
  now.
• 36:49
  I'm happy you're putting stuff out in much
• 36:53
  more mass than you have been in a
• 36:55
  long time.
• 36:56
  But can we get freaking creative a little
• 37:00
  bit?
• 37:01
  Or if you're going to copy stuff,
• 37:03
  go see what's going viral and copy that,
• 37:06
  just like you said.
• 37:07
  The Sidney Sweeney ad.
• 37:09
  Copy it.
• 37:10
  Make a parody of it.
• 37:12
  Do whatever is popular at the time.
• 37:19
  People do it all the time in social
• 37:21
  media.
• 37:22
  They copy sound.
• 37:24
  They copy the motions.
• 37:25
  They copy...
• 37:27
  whatever gets people talking.
• 37:28
  And I think that's where Hiller drilled at
• 37:30
  home is like,
• 37:32
  you need to get people talking about
• 37:34
  what's happening.
• 37:37
  And not just us.
• 37:39
  Right.
• 37:39
  You present you to the choir at this
• 37:40
  point,
• 37:41
  you have to get it to where it's
• 37:43
  going to at least have an opportunity to
• 37:45
  go viral.
• 37:46
  When I first saw the cult thing,
• 37:48
  whenever that was last week,
• 37:49
  week before last, I legitimately,
• 37:50
  I'm glad you brought up Chase and Bill
• 37:52
  because I thought it was an ad for
• 37:53
  one of their shirts.
• 37:57
  I've indicated I offered it to them.
• 37:58
  They declined.
• 38:00
  Thanks, CrossFit.
• 38:00
  Yeah.
• 38:03
  No, thanks.
• 38:04
  It's fine.
• 38:05
  We shouldn't need that.
• 38:05
  Next.
• 38:05
  Next is simple, not easy.
• 38:12
  Yeah.
• 38:12
  That would probably be their next ad
• 38:13
  campaign.
• 38:14
  Simple, not easy.
• 38:16
  Next.
• 38:17
  Okay, gotcha.
• 38:17
  Okay.
• 38:19
  Yeah.
• 38:21
  It wouldn't surprise me.
• 38:22
  Varied, not random.
• 38:24
  They're just going to throw...
• 38:26
  Boz and what's his face on a shirt?
• 38:29
  Hey.
• 38:31
  Routine is the enemy.
• 38:31
  Yeah.
• 38:35
  I mean, they're going to do that?
• 38:35
  Just give me a shirt with fitness in
• 38:38
  a hundred words on there again.
• 38:39
  Routine is the enemy.
• 38:41
  I mean,
• 38:42
  it's all this stuff I can spot out
• 38:44
  over and over and over again,
• 38:45
  but if nobody else knows what the hell
• 38:46
  it means and if it's not getting in
• 38:51
  front of different eyeballs,
• 38:54
  you don't have to
• 38:58
  It's selling ice to an Eskimo.
• 39:00
  Like, I got plenty.
• 39:01
  I'm good.
• 39:02
  I don't need it.
• 39:03
  I'm not going anywhere.
• 39:06
  But the people that are on the couch,
• 39:08
  the people that are on the fence,
• 39:09
  especially the fence people who've heard
• 39:11
  about it maybe a little bit,
• 39:12
  maybe heard it was dangerous,
• 39:14
  maybe heard it was this,
• 39:15
  maybe heard it was that,
• 39:16
  but really don't know that you need to
• 39:19
  hit those people.
• 39:22
  So I'm going to show you something if
• 39:25
  I can.
• 39:27
  um so i posted i posted this yesterday
• 39:33
  hopefully it'll let me show you the
• 39:34
  insights okay so i posted this just for
• 39:40
  fun i don't friday yeah right and it's
• 39:45
  just the thumbnails i've been using for
• 39:47
  the show and i put it out there
• 39:50
  and i and i tagged everybody that i
• 39:52
  made a superhero
• 39:54
  So then I look at the insights on
• 39:56
  this.
• 39:57
  Look at how like only twenty eight percent
• 39:59
  of my followers viewed this.
• 40:01
  And seventy one,
• 40:03
  seventy two percent of non followers.
• 40:06
  Watch this.
• 40:08
  That's what Hiller's getting at.
• 40:09
  Like.
• 40:10
  Yeah.
• 40:10
  Find something that people outside of your
• 40:13
  normal circle are going to actually look
• 40:15
  at.
• 40:16
  And by taking something viral,
• 40:18
  that's what you're doing because people
• 40:20
  are sharing it outside of the circle to
• 40:22
  get other people to look at it.
• 40:25
  And I'm going to blow this up because
• 40:26
  you can't see it, but sure I am.
• 40:31
  So see how it's followers is only twenty
• 40:34
  eight point one percent non-follower,
• 40:36
  seventy one point nine percent.
• 40:38
  Because of that,
• 40:39
  that's getting more reach than I normally
• 40:42
  get with any of my posts because it's
• 40:44
  totally outside my circle.
• 40:48
  Because the algorithm picked it up and
• 40:50
  started showing it to people because it's
• 40:53
  different.
• 40:55
  Right.
• 40:58
  So because of that...
• 41:00
  It's getting more reach.
• 41:01
  It's getting more impressions.
• 41:02
  It's getting all those things because it's
• 41:04
  outside of my normal thirty or forty eight
• 41:07
  hundred followers.
• 41:10
  Right.
• 41:11
  And I think that's what he's he's trying
• 41:13
  to get at is CrossFit is just hitting
• 41:15
  the base and they're not they're not
• 41:17
  getting outside the box.
• 41:18
  Right.
• 41:19
  The last the one he used,
• 41:21
  I can't remember what example it was.
• 41:22
  The video only has seventeen comments.
• 41:26
  Yeah.
• 41:26
  Because it's not getting outside the
• 41:28
  normal circle.
• 41:30
  People have seen it already.
• 41:32
  He was talking about the fact that they're
• 41:34
  still obviously buying views.
• 41:38
  Well, they do, but he's looking at the,
• 41:40
  well,
• 41:40
  he's looking at the ratio and that's like,
• 41:43
  if you get this many views,
• 41:44
  you should have at least this many
• 41:46
  comments or you get this many comments,
• 41:47
  you should have this many,
• 41:49
  this many views or whatnot.
• 41:51
  Like the views were way too high to
• 41:54
  only have seventeen comments.
• 41:56
  right so i just i thought he made
• 42:02
  some great points and i hope that people
• 42:05
  take him up on the advice he's given
• 42:08
  because i think it is important in in
• 42:11
  that moment so in that i lost my
• 42:15
  here okay good so here the last thing
• 42:18
  i wanted to share is that there's a
• 42:22
  new app out
• 42:24
  Did you see this?
• 42:26
  It just came out an hour ago.
• 42:28
  And Rogue has a new app.
• 42:36
  And what's cool about it is it has
• 42:38
  a quick connect to all Rogue machines.
• 42:42
  It will track any movements you do on
• 42:45
  a Rogue Echo Rower, an Echo Ski,
• 42:48
  or an Echo Bike.
• 42:50
  Well, the Echo Bike is coming soon.
• 42:52
  but it automatically connects just by
• 42:54
  scanning it,
• 42:55
  just like you're paying with Apple Pay at
• 42:58
  the store.
• 43:00
  Get out.
• 43:01
  You just tap it to the monitor,
• 43:03
  and it will track all of what you
• 43:07
  do on those Echo machines,
• 43:11
  which I found that's the coolest part of
• 43:13
  the app.
• 43:14
  That's pretty neat.
• 43:17
  But it also is, it's going to have,
• 43:19
  here's the live machine activity monitor.
• 43:21
  You'll actually be able to see it on
• 43:22
  your phone as well as your...
• 43:27
  The screen right in front of you?
• 43:30
  But what you could do is you could
• 43:32
  actually record this in the open and show
• 43:37
  that your work has been done in addition
• 43:39
  to, right?
• 43:43
  Especially if it's time-stamped.
• 43:45
  So anyway, you go over here.
• 43:47
  It has new training features.
• 43:49
  So you can actually log your different
• 43:51
  workouts, repeat your recent workouts,
• 43:54
  browse standard workouts, and get moving.
• 43:57
  So there's going to be some programming in
• 43:58
  there.
• 43:59
  Your go-to workouts,
• 44:01
  create custom workouts,
• 44:02
  track and analyze your training data.
• 44:07
  And it also is going to allow you
• 44:09
  to shop.
• 44:10
  So from the app,
• 44:11
  you'll be able to go right to Rogue
• 44:13
  and buy equipment.
• 44:18
  if you're rogue i mean isn't that the
• 44:20
  point and then download the new all new
• 44:24
  rogue app it's available now um you can
• 44:27
  go get it in your app store but
• 44:30
  i just thought that was pretty interesting
• 44:31
  there's so many apps coming out where you
• 44:32
  can train you can track your training and
• 44:34
  all that kind of stuff but very few
• 44:37
  of them can connect to a machine and
• 44:42
  actually have that as a part of the
• 44:43
  tracking mechanism
• 44:48
  So, Lito's saying that, to be fair,
• 44:50
  the Concept-II has had this sort of app
• 44:52
  for a while now.
• 44:53
  It's called, yeah, and then Wayne said,
• 44:58
  very similar to ErgData and the CTU
• 45:00
  website.
• 45:03
  I vaguely knew that was a thing,
• 45:05
  but I never use it because I don't
• 45:07
  really have anything to use it for.
• 45:09
  Does that make sense?
• 45:10
  Like, I don't have any...
• 45:15
  If I need to or if I want
• 45:16
  to,
• 45:17
  like if I'm recording a workout for a
• 45:18
  qualifier or something like that,
• 45:20
  you can hook most of the video timer
• 45:25
  apps, waterproof and whatnot.
• 45:27
  You can hook to the grower and it'll
• 45:31
  show your calories or your meters or
• 45:32
  whatever on the screen as you're going.
• 45:38
  A lot of people are saying they could
• 45:39
  track it.
• 45:40
  Did you need a hard wire to track,
• 45:43
  Jody?
• 45:44
  Or is it Wi-Fi?
• 45:44
  It's Wi-Fi.
• 45:45
  Yeah.
• 45:54
  Peter Benoit,
• 45:55
  ConceptU has a worldwide leaderboard for
• 45:57
  every WOD, which is cool to follow,
• 45:59
  broken apart by machine that's used.
• 46:02
  Okay.
• 46:03
  So just like...
• 46:08
  the Echo Rower,
• 46:11
  Rogue is just copying what has already
• 46:13
  been done and making it and rebranding it
• 46:15
  as their own and putting their own store
• 46:17
  in it where you can buy their equipment
• 46:19
  right from the app.
• 46:22
  Just killed yourself on an Echo Bike
• 46:24
  workout?
• 46:25
  Come buy one of your own.
• 46:27
  Come get a lacrosse ball and a foam
• 46:30
  roller.
• 46:32
  Get you two lacrosse balls and one for
• 46:34
  your butt cheek.
• 46:37
  I did not know this.
• 46:40
  Leo says she's heard that all the time.
• 46:42
  She's doing intervals in the C-tube
• 46:43
  machine because it connects to Strava and
• 46:45
  Gorman, too.
• 46:46
  I would love to connect them on Gorman.
• 46:48
  I'm going to have to go look that
• 46:51
  up so I can track that kind of
• 46:52
  stuff.
• 46:54
  Yeah,
• 46:55
  I think that a lot of our watches
• 46:56
  do way more than we know they do
• 46:58
  because we're just too lazy to look at
• 47:00
  all the functionality and to figure it
• 47:02
  out.
• 47:03
  It's like, mine's got all these modes for,
• 47:05
  like, is it a weightlifting watch?
• 47:07
  you running are you walking swimming blah
• 47:10
  blah whatever i'd usually nine times out
• 47:12
  of ten i just hit cardio and just
• 47:15
  rock and rock with that because like i'm
• 47:17
  not doing the rest of it that's just
• 47:19
  way too much uh leader says yep just
• 47:22
  download erg data corey and sync it to
• 47:24
  your garment very easy i'm gonna do that
• 47:27
  today i wish i'd known that this morning
• 47:29
  i didn't grow in intervals as well
• 47:32
  Mark Phillips,
• 47:33
  does Rogue give prizes for meters like
• 47:34
  C-II?
• 47:37
  I didn't see that in their recap,
• 47:39
  but I'm betting the Rogue challenges will
• 47:42
  have to be done through their app.
• 47:44
  And maybe like the Rogue qualifier will
• 47:46
  have to be done through their app moving
• 47:48
  forward.
• 47:50
  That's what I would do if I was
• 47:51
  Rogue.
• 47:57
  I wonder was a qualified just on their
• 48:00
  website before, right?
• 48:01
  Not on that.
• 48:01
  I mean,
• 48:01
  obviously they didn't have that app.
• 48:03
  They had their sales app,
• 48:04
  but not that app.
• 48:05
  I don't think it has,
• 48:07
  as opposed to like competition corner or
• 48:09
  whatever.
• 48:11
  Hopefully they can do the same with
• 48:12
  technology.
• 48:13
  CT uses for the competitive competitions.
• 48:15
  So spectators can see live action.
• 48:17
  Yeah.
• 48:18
  I love when CrossFit works with C two
• 48:21
  and you can see like on the row,
• 48:23
  the boats going across the screen and
• 48:26
  who's kind of in the lead.
• 48:27
  It actually makes watching that erg a lot
• 48:31
  easier than just.
• 48:32
  The marathon row in twenty eighteen, like.
• 48:38
  had it on the screen so i was
• 48:39
  watching it at home on my tv but
• 48:41
  they had the boats the boat race part
• 48:43
  of it like up on the screen you
• 48:44
  could see where everybody was at that was
• 48:45
  cool uh doesn't rogue use beyond the
• 48:50
  whiteboard maybe not anymore i know i've
• 48:56
  seen the rogue challenges on on beyond the
• 48:58
  whiteboard but i don't know if they use
• 48:59
  them specifically if that makes sense yeah
• 49:06
  larry says his apple watch the vo-to max
• 49:09
  asking him if he's still alive so all
• 49:21
  right well that was news that just broke
• 49:23
  like right before we went on the air
• 49:26
  uh you're gonna be back before you fly
• 49:28
  out yeah all right five percent i'll be
• 49:32
  here i'll be here all week more likely
• 49:33
  because i won't be here this i won't
• 49:35
  be available
• 49:36
  Thursday, Friday.
• 49:39
  And I say that I have no idea
• 49:40
  what our schedule looks like yet.
• 49:41
  Like I said,
• 49:42
  we still haven't gotten the schedule or
• 49:43
  the workouts.
• 49:48
  David Reed,
• 49:48
  the standard is currently using beyond the
• 49:50
  whiteboard.
• 49:52
  I'm sure it is,
• 49:53
  but now this just launched today.
• 49:56
  So they can't go like retroactive,
• 49:58
  but I'm betting in the future,
• 50:00
  all of their stuff will be on their
• 50:02
  own app.
• 50:03
  I mean,
• 50:03
  it makes sense that they do everything
• 50:05
  else in house anyway.
• 50:07
  Like Bob, when they do that,
• 50:09
  I'm honestly surprised it took this long,
• 50:11
  probably waiting until they got the three
• 50:13
  herbs that they wanted done.
• 50:17
  Are we going to look at a call
• 50:18
  before they,
• 50:19
  they went ahead and did that because
• 50:20
  otherwise there was no need to have an
• 50:25
  app because they already had an app,
• 50:28
  their sales app.
• 50:31
  Yeah.
• 50:33
  A few bigger UK comps have done this
• 50:35
  too.
• 50:35
  It's pretty neat.
• 50:36
  And as an athlete too,
• 50:37
  cause you can see where you are,
• 50:38
  how far ahead or behind you are from
• 50:40
  others, et cetera.
• 50:41
  Yeah.
• 50:41
  I think that technology is really cool.
• 50:45
  You just have to have the screens to
• 50:46
  be able to pull it off.
• 50:50
  So David Reed,
• 50:55
  imagine a rogue mayhem best hour collab
• 50:58
  CrossFit two point.
• 50:59
  Oh, you forgot NC fit in there too.
• 51:09
  Oh,
• 51:09
  I still don't know that that is not
• 51:11
  to compete against CrossFit.
• 51:13
  They are, they love the methodology.
• 51:15
  They want to be a part of CrossFit.
• 51:20
  Even though Jason D affiliate,
• 51:21
  he always gems just to re affiliate them
• 51:24
  several months later.
• 51:27
  He said on the podcast,
• 51:27
  he never D affiliated.
• 51:34
  Here's so, and you can say that, right?
• 51:36
  You can say that because many people just
• 51:39
  said,
• 51:39
  I'm going to let my affiliation expire.
• 51:42
  They didn't like write in and say, Hey,
• 51:43
  I want to de-affiliate.
• 51:45
  And then before it actually expired,
• 51:46
  they went, Oh,
• 51:48
  maybe we reacted too quickly and we really
• 51:51
  don't want to de-affiliate.
• 51:52
  So we're not going to let it expire.
• 51:53
  That's hilarious.
• 51:57
  I mean,
• 51:57
  I know James around me right here that
• 51:59
  we're going to de-affiliate.
• 52:01
  And then we're going to let it expire.
• 52:03
  And then before the expiration,
• 52:05
  they were like, you know what?
• 52:06
  It's not so bad being here.
• 52:07
  You know, on second thought.
• 52:14
  So the deaffiliation never truly happened
• 52:17
  only in their mind because they didn't ask
• 52:20
  to be deaffiliated from CrossFit.
• 52:21
  Right up in that place.
• 52:25
  Yeah.
• 52:25
  Now with the way it's structured today
• 52:27
  with monthly payments,
• 52:28
  you can deaffiliate pretty quickly.
• 52:31
  Yeah, I imagine so.
• 52:32
  I just de-affiliated with my health club
• 52:34
  membership because I don't need to swim
• 52:35
  anymore until next year at some point.
• 52:39
  Is that what they call it,
• 52:40
  the swim club de-affiliation?
• 52:43
  I mean,
• 52:44
  I'm no longer affiliated with them,
• 52:45
  so I feel like I de-affiliated with the
• 52:50
  beach health club in Baton Rouge.
• 52:52
  Thank y'all very,
• 52:53
  very much for letting me use y'all pool.
• 52:55
  Travis says,
• 52:56
  NC Fit gym barely made it one year
• 52:58
  in Omaha.
• 53:00
  my understanding is where they're actually
• 53:02
  making headway is in asia i mean kalipa
• 53:11
  opened up some affiliates in asia and
• 53:14
  they're doing okay good fam and that is
• 53:20
  really why maybe mayhem wants to a piece
• 53:22
  of it because they're probably not in asia
• 53:24
  like it's a huge market i mean
• 53:32
  insanely big so yeah i could see that
• 53:36
  i could see it so lito's asking can
• 53:36
  you actively de-affiliate before it
• 53:38
  expires so i am not an expert on
• 53:41
  this i'm just trying to remember back to
• 53:43
  the covid years and um floyd you could
• 53:48
  actually call crossfit and ask to be
• 53:51
  de-affiliated
• 53:53
  But what most gym owners did is just
• 53:55
  said, I already paid my fee.
• 53:58
  I'm probably not getting it back.
• 54:00
  I'll just let it expire.
• 54:02
  And then before it actually expired,
• 54:04
  the climate changed rapidly back in
• 54:06
  another direction.
• 54:08
  And so they just stayed on.
• 54:12
  That is not my expertise.
• 54:14
  That is just remembering how it went
• 54:18
  during those times.
• 54:19
  I have no idea.
• 54:24
  Back then you had to pay yearly.
• 54:26
  You paid one time whatever you paid back
• 54:31
  then because it wasn't the forty five
• 54:33
  hundred.
• 54:33
  It was all kinds of different things.
• 54:35
  It depends on where you were and how
• 54:39
  long you've been an affiliate and whatnot.
• 54:41
  I mean,
• 54:41
  there was a dude that was still paying
• 54:42
  like five hundred bucks or some shit like
• 54:44
  that.
• 54:44
  Right.
• 54:45
  it was brought up again when they changed
• 54:46
  the price to every for everyone up to
• 54:48
  forty five hundred because if you were
• 54:50
  grandfathered in at five hundred you got
• 54:53
  to keep that for the remainder of your
• 54:55
  year and only at the time of renewal
• 54:57
  where you then charge the forty five
• 54:59
  hundred so people who decided they were
• 55:02
  going to de-affiliate rather than renew
• 55:05
  just waited for that to expire because
• 55:09
  most people would i mean why were you
• 55:10
  at that point
• 55:13
  but now it's a monthly payment from what
• 55:15
  I understand.
• 55:17
  So if you don't make your payment,
• 55:18
  you're done.
• 55:20
  Yeah.
• 55:21
  That's my understanding.
• 55:22
  Yeah.
• 55:22
  So just shut off your payment,
• 55:23
  call it good and go on about your
• 55:24
  business.
• 55:24
  Yeah.
• 55:26
  But you also have to take everything off
• 55:28
  that says CrossFit and revamp your website
• 55:31
  and whatever else you got to do to
• 55:34
  remove the word CrossFit from your gym.
• 55:41
  Any insight into what happened to WFP
• 55:43
  affiliate program?
• 55:44
  No mention on their website and no listing
• 55:46
  of affiliates.
• 55:47
  Wayne?
• 55:52
  I am definitely not on the in crowd
• 55:54
  of the WFP,
• 55:55
  but I will tell you I got some
• 55:56
  good news.
• 55:58
  I did get a cameraman approved to be
• 56:01
  in Copenhagen to get pictures of the
• 56:04
  Copenhagen event,
• 56:06
  which was very surprising to me,
• 56:08
  but I'm glad that they did approve him.
• 56:11
  His name is Nicholas Erickson.
• 56:14
  He is from Sweden.
• 56:15
  He is a friend of Ishmael,
• 56:21
  who is my normal photographer,
• 56:23
  and he's going to be getting shots over
• 56:25
  there for that.
• 56:27
  So super, super stoked for that.
• 56:35
  Good stuff.
• 56:35
  So follow him on Instagram.
• 56:37
  He's going to collab with everything he
• 56:38
  does with us.
• 56:40
  And so we'll have some shots from
• 56:42
  Copenhagen when that happens in what,
• 56:45
  two weeks now?
• 56:50
  Yep.
• 56:51
  Should be right before Christmas and.
• 56:53
  going to arizona later this week so it's
• 56:55
  right and it's right after that so yeah
• 56:57
  it's gotta be next weekend and last quick
• 57:00
  update for me before we sign off uh
• 57:02
  i did get scheduled my consult for my
• 57:05
  biopsy uh for the um sarcoidosis to show
• 57:12
  that it is in fact sarcoidosis and not
• 57:14
  cancer um which they don't think it is
• 57:17
  cancer but
• 57:19
  They have to verify that before I can
• 57:22
  start treatment.
• 57:26
  The medical system.
• 57:29
  We're going to consult with you before we
• 57:30
  do a biopsy.
• 57:31
  We're going to tell you about it before
• 57:32
  we actually do it.
• 57:34
  There are two options for the biopsy.
• 57:36
  I think that's why there's a consult.
• 57:38
  I get to pick which way they go.
• 57:41
  either down through my nose and inside my
• 57:44
  lung or through the chest,
• 57:47
  through the lung and then grab it from
• 57:50
  and pull it outside.
• 57:53
  Neither one sounds appealing.
• 57:56
  No,
• 57:57
  I think that's what was kind of explained
• 57:58
  to me,
• 57:59
  but I think the surgeon wants to actually
• 58:01
  like show me how they're going to do
• 58:03
  it.
• 58:05
  And then let me know which way I
• 58:07
  want to,
• 58:08
  and probably like what the recovery time
• 58:10
  is and what all of that is coming
• 58:12
  out of it.
• 58:19
  So.
• 58:21
  But, you know, wives,
• 58:22
  like I got it scheduled and I told
• 58:24
  her and where it was going to be.
• 58:26
  And it's at the cancer center.
• 58:28
  And she's like, cancer.
• 58:30
  You didn't tell me you had cancer.
• 58:32
  Like, I don't know that I have cancer.
• 58:34
  They don't think I have cancer.
• 58:35
  It's just at the place.
• 58:40
  I'm like, we've had this discussion.
• 58:42
  They have to just make sure it's not
• 58:45
  before they start treating it.
• 58:47
  And she's like,
• 58:48
  you don't have enough life insurance, bro.
• 58:52
  I have plenty of life insurance.
• 58:54
  Thanks, wife.
• 58:59
  We're all right.
• 59:02
  Seems horrible.
• 59:04
  You don't have enough life insurance.
• 59:05
  I don't think I want you telling me
• 59:08
  no crazy shit like that.
• 59:11
  I think she was saying it because I
• 59:12
  scared her to death.
• 59:13
  In that case,
• 59:16
  she doesn't have enough life insurance.
• 59:21
  She does not have as much as I
• 59:22
  do.
• 59:24
  That is for sure.
• 59:25
  But with that, guys,
• 59:28
  hopefully we get answers soon, man.
• 59:29
  I am ready for some answers and ready
• 59:31
  for some treatment.
• 59:32
  Yep.
• 59:34
  So much.
• 59:36
  But with that, we're going to head out.
• 59:38
  I'm going to get back to work.
• 59:39
  You get back to work, too.

• 1:00:10
  in Greek yogurt and eat it that way.
• 1:00:13
  Found out that is a good thing.
• 1:00:15
  Thank you, John George, for that.
