Lunch with the Clydesdale - Cookin up Cajun with Cory | What is next for Cory? · Clydesdale Media Podcast

0:30
What is going on, everybody?
0:34
It's lunchtime.
0:36
And it's Wednesday,
0:37
meaning we are cooking up
0:38
Cajun with Corey Leonard.
0:40
What's going on, man?
0:43
Same stuff, different day, brother, man.
0:44
Same stuff, different day.
0:46
Got my coaching in early this morning.
0:49
Had some strict pull-up or
0:52
strict weighted pull-up
0:53
work and some... I don't
0:56
know what the actual name
0:57
of the workout is.
0:57
I just kind of christened it
0:58
cardio hell because...
1:02
Rob echo, biking,
1:03
running and ruin as just on
1:07
Wilson used to say, how y'all are.
1:09
Hey, look at that.
1:15
I used to love watching him
1:16
when I was a kid.
1:20
I used to watch way more of
1:21
that than I like to admit.
1:23
Uh,
1:24
It was always funny to me
1:25
because he didn't sound
1:26
like anybody I know.
1:27
And I grew up as cool as you
1:28
can possibly imagine.
1:30
And I just always thought
1:31
that he sounded like he
1:32
sounded funny to me.
1:36
And I know I sound funny to
1:37
everybody else.
1:38
Right.
1:40
Like you're halfway by you.
1:41
He was the whole way.
1:43
No, I'm not halfway in the body.
1:45
Believe what I'm telling you.
1:46
Like there's I got home from
1:49
school one day.
1:50
This isn't.
1:51
Not a made-up story.
1:53
This is an actual thing.
1:54
I got home from school one day,
1:56
and there was about an
1:57
eight-and-a-half-foot
1:57
alligator on the road right
1:59
behind my mom's house.
2:01
Mom's house is here.
2:03
Road goes through,
2:04
basically cuts actually
2:05
through the swamp.
2:06
It goes back to some, like,
2:08
camps and stuff like that.
2:09
It leads out to Lake Barrett.
2:10
And there was about an
2:10
eight-and-a-half-foot
2:11
alligator sunning itself on the road.
2:14
And there was a dude in a
2:15
truck trying to go down the street,
2:17
and alligator was just
2:18
sitting there looking at him like,
2:19
I ain't moving, bro.
2:24
Lynn noticing a little grooming.
2:27
Yes, ma'am.
2:28
Got my hair did this morning.
2:29
I mean,
2:29
my birthday is tomorrow and it's
2:32
Easter this weekend.
2:33
So I figured it's a good time as any.
2:37
Birthday tomorrow.
2:39
What number are we hitting?
2:41
Forty-eight.
2:43
Forty-eight.
2:43
We'll be forty-eight on the planet.
2:46
So I'm in year forty-eight
2:48
of not making the games.
2:54
All right, man.
2:54
As long as you make it in
2:55
the next two years, you've met your goal.
2:57
A hundred percent.
2:59
A hundred percent.
3:01
Yeah.
3:02
I don't.
3:04
So it's funny.
3:04
Andrew says that, but the dude,
3:07
Troy Landry from a small
3:10
people actually went to
3:11
high school with my mom.
3:13
That's a real thing.
3:17
Yeah.
3:18
You are authentic.
3:20
I don't get much more.
3:22
I'll get much more.
3:24
I ain't never hunted alligators,
3:26
but I have run crawfish
3:27
traps and crab traps and
3:29
set nets and all of the things.
3:32
I can do all of that.
3:34
So I... Which ones?
3:40
I don't know.
3:43
I have no idea.
3:44
I don't know what Jay Birch is saying.
3:47
But hey, Jay Birch, welcome.
3:48
Andrew, Lito, Lynn, Andrew, Helson,
3:54
Jody, man, they're all here.
4:00
My one encounter with an
4:01
alligator is when I was
4:02
living in Tallahassee, Florida,
4:05
which is right across the
4:06
Gulf from New Orleans.
4:10
It was very common to be on
4:11
a golf course and see a gator.
4:15
Oh, yeah.
4:16
Very common.
4:17
And then we had this place
4:19
called Wakulla Springs,
4:21
which was this really deep spring,
4:24
like one hundred and fifty feet deep.
4:27
And it was crystal clear water.
4:29
National Geographic has gone
4:31
back into the spring to try
4:32
to find like the source of it.
4:34
They've never been able to find it.
4:36
They found new species of
4:38
fish back in where there's no light.
4:42
Like the fish had no eyes.
4:45
Just wild stuff, right?
4:47
And then out in where it
4:49
empties out into it formed a river.
4:52
And so the gators are all
4:54
along the banks of that river.
4:58
And then it is full of mullet fish.
5:01
Have you ever seen a mullet fish?
5:02
Oh, yeah, a hundred percent.
5:05
They jump.
5:06
They jump out of the water quite high,
5:08
like into the boat.
5:10
But they have like a fin
5:11
that looks like a mullet.
5:12
And that's why they're called mullet fish.
5:20
Like good bait.
5:21
Yeah.
5:22
The other thing that I
5:22
cannot... The gators I was fine with.
5:25
Yeah.
5:27
The snakes hanging from trees,
5:29
different story.
5:32
Completely different story.
5:33
Hanging from a tree.
5:35
Like if you see an alligator
5:36
and it's just chilling
5:38
where it's supposed to be,
5:39
then that's not a big deal.
5:41
If you see a snake, it's not necessarily,
5:44
you know,
5:45
not expected to be hanging from a tree.
5:47
And alligators for the most
5:48
part will leave you alone
5:49
if you are not listening to them.
5:51
They don't, you leave them alone,
5:53
they will leave you alone.
5:55
Snake hanging from a tree,
5:56
that's not necessarily the
5:57
case because if they fall
6:00
or if you happen to see
6:01
that and get stanced and it
6:02
kind of slithers and all of
6:03
a sudden it's just coming at you,
6:06
the air which is not what
6:08
you would expect from a
6:09
snake every time I come
6:21
into this basement man I
6:22
get one little dry spot on
6:24
my throat every time so
6:28
when my family would come
6:30
down from the north we
6:31
would take them to this
6:32
place to show them the alligators because
6:36
They don't get to see them in the north.
6:38
Right.
6:38
And one time we were there
6:41
and there's an alligator
6:42
just kind of swimming in
6:43
the river as they do.
6:46
And a couple deer came down
6:48
to get a drink of water.
6:51
Ooh.
6:52
And all of a sudden that
6:53
alligator picked up speed.
6:56
And I thought for sure my
6:58
whole family was going to
6:59
see a live National
7:01
Geographic special right in
7:02
front of their eyes.
7:03
Yeah.
7:08
But thank, and it was close.
7:11
It was close.
7:12
Um, but, uh, the, the deer did get away.
7:17
They have ridiculous reflexes,
7:19
unless you're coming at
7:20
them at sixty miles an hour
7:22
in a pickup truck at two
7:24
o'clock in the morning.
7:24
In that case,
7:25
they'll just stare at you
7:25
until you run them over.
7:26
It's ridiculous.
7:30
Yeah.
7:31
Um,
7:33
I missed the dart throw you
7:35
have not missed the dart
7:36
throw um I actually forgot
7:40
so what are what are the
7:42
odds today am I going to
7:43
put a hole in my wall or am
7:45
I going to hit the
7:46
dartboard today like when
7:51
you throw darts normally
7:52
it's it's like tight and
7:54
just a push right yeah now
7:58
I've got a longer distance
8:00
And I've got to go up and over.
8:03
Right.
8:04
Right.
8:04
Here we go.
8:10
Oh, I think I actually got triple ten.
8:17
You know what?
8:18
Ain't nobody can see that but you, Scott.
8:20
As far as I'm concerned,
8:21
I would be hitting a
8:22
bullseye every single time.
8:24
Nailed it.
8:25
No, because when I hit it for real,
8:27
I want it to be real.
8:27
If you hit it for real,
8:29
you'll probably freak out anyway.
8:31
I hit a triple ten,
8:32
so lower part of the board this time.
8:35
So last time I was way up above.
8:38
I hit the board,
8:39
but it was like up by the twelve.
8:41
Now I'm down to the lower.
8:42
Now I just got to zone in
8:44
that little middle spot.
8:46
I would never understand it like that.
8:49
I will go throw darts.
8:50
If I used to, I say I would go,
8:53
I probably wouldn't go now.
8:54
Cause it'd be out after eight, eight PM,
8:56
but I just never, I, then I hit it.
9:00
Yeah.
9:00
Cool.
9:01
What did it score?
9:02
Whatever.
9:02
All right.
9:02
Awesome.
9:03
Moving right along.
9:04
Like it's not.
9:06
So you're talking to a guy
9:07
who bartended and bounced
9:09
for like five years.
9:11
Right.
9:11
What, what do you do with your downtime?
9:15
I mean, that's fair.
9:16
you either play pool you
9:18
throw darts or you play
9:20
pinball or the video games
9:21
that happen to be at the
9:22
bar so I got pretty decent
9:27
at like all of them I
9:29
didn't get great at any one
9:30
of them but I was decent at
9:32
like most of it the thing
9:34
that we spent most of our
9:35
time on was the video game
9:36
nba jam the four person
9:40
he's on fire yeah lots and lots of that
9:46
But we had a phase where it
9:47
was a lot of darts.
9:49
A lot of darts.
9:50
There was a daiquiri shop.
9:55
It's still there, as a matter of fact,
9:56
in Thibodeau when I was
9:57
going to Nichols that had Cruisin' USA.
10:02
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
10:04
Was it a side-by-side or just a solo?
10:07
Just a solo.
10:08
But we would use that at the
10:09
end of the night to see who
10:10
was driving home.
10:14
I'm not saying it was a great idea.
10:15
I'm just telling you it's a
10:16
thing that happened.
10:18
Yeah.
10:19
My friends and I used to do
10:20
that with Mario Kart,
10:21
but we got so good at Mario Kart,
10:23
we could do it half in the bag.
10:26
So it wasn't a good test.
10:33
We have Lito in the chat talking to Lynn,
10:35
and apparently he, she is a, sorry,
10:40
I don't know.
10:42
But you're close to making
10:44
it to the CrossFit Games.
10:46
So we will be rooting you on for sure.
10:49
Hopefully,
10:50
I get approval to do behind the
10:52
scenes again this year.
10:54
And I've got to be able to
10:57
do behind the scenes in my hometown,
10:58
right?
11:00
Yeah.
11:02
I mean, if you're talking to Joe,
11:05
I would stress that part of it.
11:06
Hey, man, I'm already here.
11:08
I can get some stuff ahead of time.
11:10
I'm already here.
11:12
I'll be able to get good sleep at night,
11:14
get here early in the morning, refresh,
11:17
ready to go, get good stuff.
11:19
As long as I have the
11:20
correct amount of access,
11:22
the entire weekend would be fantastic.
11:25
Would be.
11:28
Did I sound bitter about that?
11:29
Because I wasn't even involved in that.
11:31
You weren't.
11:31
You weren't even there.
11:35
Yeah, and it still came out well.
11:37
Like, I don't want to... It did.
11:38
It absolutely did.
11:40
It's a lot more work to, like,
11:42
yell at people and have
11:43
them come over to the side as opposed to,
11:48
like,
11:48
just walking up to someone and
11:50
asking them a question.
11:51
Right.
11:55
Salido is a female,
11:56
thirty-five to thirty-nine.
11:59
And according to Lynn, complete badass.
12:02
Well, if she's sitting in eighth or ninth,
12:03
then yeah, one hundred percent.
12:05
She is.
12:06
She's better than I am.
12:07
That's for damn sure.
12:08
Well, I am, too.
12:10
So if you listened yesterday,
12:12
I was talking about how
12:13
some of the emails have
12:14
gone out and are confirming
12:19
people's workouts.
12:20
Right.
12:21
And some of them are saying that, hey,
12:23
due to public voting,
12:28
we took a look and your
12:30
your video is good.
12:34
um and so carolyn yesterday
12:38
on her instagram she told
12:40
us but then she posted it
12:42
got all five confirmed good
12:45
but I don't know if you
12:48
guys know this because all
12:50
five are good look who is
12:55
now the winner of the
12:59
thirty five to thirty nine
13:00
year old division
13:05
She won the Open, and now she won semis.
13:12
And she checked in and said,
13:14
can't wait to see you guys in Columbus.
13:16
So there's Lito.
13:19
Yeah, right there.
13:22
There she is.
13:28
Lito, are you from Greece?
13:30
Is that Greece?
13:32
Okay.
13:37
I think Greece is one of the
13:38
most beautiful places on
13:39
earth I am fairly certain I
13:45
actually scrolled over it
13:46
and it told me it was
13:47
Greece so Christine says
13:56
holy isht I didn't see that
14:00
what happened was she was
14:01
in fourth before I think
14:03
she was in third most of the time
14:06
But the people ahead of her got penalties.
14:09
We went back and looked at
14:10
the video to try to figure
14:11
it out because it was Stevie Dellinger.
14:18
The only thing I think that
14:21
they could have dinged her
14:22
on the one workout was she
14:25
moved her box and didn't
14:27
remeasure the five foot section.
14:31
And then on the last rep,
14:32
she jumped off the box with both feet.
14:38
And that's definitely.
14:38
So,
14:39
but that wouldn't have been a big penalty,
14:41
but not measure it.
14:42
She moved the box around and
14:44
then didn't remeasure.
14:45
That's the only thing there
14:46
might've been a soft elbow a time or two,
14:49
but not anything that was like really,
14:52
really bad.
14:53
So I don't really know what
14:55
happened with Stevie.
14:56
And then with Sarah,
14:59
Alicia Fernandez Costas,
15:01
I think is who was in first.
15:03
Yeah.
15:06
It looks like she miscounted
15:07
her reps on a round,
15:10
and they stopped it at that point.
15:13
Her score stopped.
15:15
Yeah, that's a thing.
15:16
And it was one burpee.
15:18
She missed one burpee,
15:20
and then they stopped the
15:21
workout where she missed the one burpee,
15:26
which seemed harsh to me.
15:29
That was...
15:31
was the rules that they put
15:32
out though I remember that
15:33
being a big thing like hey
15:35
if you miss a rep and you
15:37
keep going and it's like we
15:39
figure out that's where you
15:40
miss the rep that's where
15:41
your workout stops lito
15:43
that's exactly what we saw
15:44
is that sarah did twenty
15:45
nine of thirty burpees on
15:46
her first round and then
15:51
they they stopped even
15:54
carolyn who was competing
15:55
for her for the win was
15:56
like that's too harsh but um
16:02
yeah it's such a silly
16:04
mistake to make too like if
16:06
you're the judge and you
16:07
miscounted you you've got
16:09
to be feeling awful oh one
16:11
hundred percent dude my
16:14
judges would go back and
16:17
watch my stuff afterwards
16:19
because jeff's sitting
16:21
there actually judging
16:22
counting rest making sure
16:23
I'm doing everything I'm
16:24
supposed to do and then
16:26
bernard was just kind of
16:27
like hovering and watching stuff and then
16:31
uh for the for that one as a
16:33
matter of fact um bernard
16:35
went back and watched me
16:37
lunge across the line for
16:39
one rep arm and which one
16:40
it was like five different
16:42
times because he was making
16:43
sure that my feet he was
16:44
like I mean if they slow it
16:45
down I said bro I'm not
16:46
supposed to slow it down he
16:48
said it kind of looks like
16:49
both of your feet like it
16:50
looks like they are but it
16:51
could be interpreted I said
16:52
it's not no could be
16:53
interpreted they are they are
16:56
But they were on top of that,
17:00
making sure that even that
17:02
kind of stuff was as it should be,
17:05
I guess you could say.
17:06
So I didn't get dinged for
17:08
any kind of crazy stuff like that.
17:13
Yeah.
17:13
Jamie moved up a spot since
17:16
it was originally posted.
17:17
So she's in seventh now.
17:19
But she does not have all of
17:20
hers verified.
17:21
So it looks like they're
17:23
still working on her age
17:24
group with all of the reviews.
17:34
I started out in the eighty fifth.
17:36
I went all the way up to seventy fourth.
17:39
Yesterday,
17:39
I dropped back down to the eightieth,
17:41
and this morning,
17:42
I'm in the seventy-eighth.
17:44
So, like, whatever, I mean,
17:46
they're definitely looking at it,
17:47
and there's definitely stuff going on.
17:48
It's just wild to me that, like,
17:51
up at eleven spots,
17:52
which has people getting, like,
17:54
zeroed out, right?
17:55
Yep.
17:57
back down to aiding.
17:58
Okay, cool.
18:00
That's, you know,
18:00
people putting scores back in.
18:02
Awesome.
18:02
So I expect it to happen.
18:04
And then now I'm back in seventy eight.
18:05
So that to me,
18:06
that means that somebody
18:08
else's stuff got watched
18:09
and like they got dinged completely,
18:11
completely out or something happened.
18:14
I didn't I didn't pay enough
18:15
attention to the people in
18:16
front of me to see exactly what happened.
18:19
But it's just it's
18:21
interesting to see how much
18:21
movement has actually
18:22
happened and will continue
18:24
to because we still got five days.
18:27
Yep.
18:28
Uh, Lynn says, uh, man,
18:31
they'd have to pay me.
18:32
That's so painful.
18:33
At least she still is going
18:34
to come to masters, but ouch.
18:36
Yeah.
18:36
Thank goodness.
18:37
Like it only made her drop
18:39
to the twenties.
18:40
Um,
18:41
cause she's still in a qualifying spot.
18:43
Um, so yeah, cool there.
18:48
Uh, Jay Birch, congratulations.
18:50
Finished up the online L one yesterday.
18:53
So next year,
18:54
give me a holler if you need a judge,
18:56
Corey.
18:59
Love it.
18:59
Appreciate you, Jeff.
19:01
That's cool.
19:03
I love that he's
19:04
credentialed and can do all the things.
19:08
I am extremely lucky and
19:10
blessed to be surrounded by
19:11
people who care about me,
19:14
hold me to the standard and, and like,
19:18
we'll give up an entire
19:19
weekend just to come and
19:21
basically watch me suffer for fricking,
19:24
you know,
19:25
five workouts plus or minus if I
19:27
got to redo any of them.
19:30
it's a, it's pretty good feeling.
19:33
It's pretty good feeling.
19:34
So.
19:36
Yeah.
19:37
It's amazing though.
19:38
How many people aren't
19:39
credentialed apparently and doing, doing.
19:43
It keeps happening.
19:44
I know.
19:46
Are you kidding me?
19:47
It keeps happening.
19:48
Like the,
19:49
the thing that may him was kind
19:50
of a big deal,
19:50
but then you look at it and it's like,
19:52
it's not,
19:52
that's not the only place that happened.
19:53
Like it's, it's a lot.
19:58
What I don't understand is
20:03
even if you know you're
20:04
going to come in a hundred
20:05
and twenty-fifth place.
20:07
Yeah, that's we're getting to that.
20:12
Even if you know you come in
20:12
a hundred twenty-fifth place, right?
20:14
If you know,
20:15
I'm not going to get anyone
20:17
anywhere close to that, whatever.
20:19
You still, if you're going to play,
20:22
you still have to follow the rules.
20:24
The same rules apply to everybody.
20:27
So I don't look three, four, five, six.
20:31
Yes, train to live.
20:34
So much going on.
20:36
So Bill Grundler's been
20:38
mentioned three times just now.
20:40
Lino, Shay, what's going on, Shay?
20:42
Glad you could be here.
20:44
And Lynn.
20:47
And then we have the impersonator,
20:52
which is insane to me.
20:54
then they made the video not
20:55
public so now it's not a
20:57
valid video anyway
20:59
regardless one way or the
21:00
other um which is admitting
21:03
guilt fyi like you just as
21:06
soon have said yeah okay no
21:08
that she's not actually who
21:09
she says she was so the
21:12
grundler thing surprised me
21:13
because someone who
21:16
has been such an integral
21:19
part to the ecosystem as he has been.
21:25
Neither him nor the other
21:27
judge had their credentials.
21:31
And he was seminar staff.
21:33
He was an L-to.
21:35
He owns an affiliate.
21:37
Right.
21:37
And as an affiliate owner,
21:39
isn't it required that you
21:40
or somebody that represents
21:42
you has an L-to?
21:47
So, yeah.
21:49
Well, along those lines,
21:51
we got a comment after Sunday show.
21:53
And it was from at John George, nine, four,
21:58
two, three.
22:01
And this goes to like what
22:03
Denise talked about on the
22:04
phone call in about the
22:06
fairness of them getting the exception,
22:09
but others not in the past
22:12
or even this year.
22:13
So this is at John George, nine, four, two,
22:16
three.
22:18
As far as mayhem, I'm mixed.
22:20
I had an issue with the
22:21
submission that was fine
22:22
when I submitted.
22:23
Somewhere along the way,
22:24
it was flagged for music
22:26
infringement and someone
22:27
flagged it as unviewable.
22:29
I did not realize this
22:30
because I could see it
22:32
because it was mine.
22:34
I received an email Friday at nine p.m.
22:36
letting me know I got a zero.
22:39
It was a sixteenth.
22:42
uh workout number three I
22:43
made correction the
22:44
correction immediately
22:46
crossfit emailed me back
22:47
and said based on rule
22:48
number two blah blah it
22:50
should have been fixed by five pm
22:53
I didn't know until nine,
22:55
so they couldn't cut me slack,
22:57
but they can for this mayhem issue.
22:59
So shame on me for not
23:00
double-checking late Friday.
23:02
I don't blame athletes at mayhem,
23:04
but if you're going to have
23:05
the ability to make exceptions,
23:07
make it available for all
23:08
potential issues, shit happens.
23:11
Just my opinion.
23:12
Great show.
23:16
So nothing was wrong.
23:17
He followed all of the rules
23:19
except for somebody flagged
23:20
his video for music and
23:26
copyright infringement.
23:27
I got three of mine that
23:30
have music copyright infringement.
23:31
It means they can't be
23:32
viewed in some countries.
23:34
Right.
23:34
His, they made it unviewable worldwide.
23:39
Oh.
23:41
That's a problem.
23:42
And so, and he went and he fixed it
23:47
He knew it was a problem.
23:48
He fixed it.
23:50
But CrossFit said, too bad.
23:52
You didn't follow rule number two.
23:54
You're out.
23:56
I will say this.
23:58
I went and made sure.
24:03
And this kind of stuff drives me bananas.
24:06
And I get it.
24:07
They're trying to play the game, whatever.
24:08
But the people that wait...
24:10
until Sunday at four o'clock.
24:14
And then I'm gonna go upload
24:15
all my videos right now.
24:17
I'm gonna upload all my
24:18
score here because I don't
24:18
want anybody to see what I did.
24:21
They either gonna beat you or they ain't,
24:22
bro.
24:23
Period.
24:25
Like,
24:25
especially in that small window that
24:26
we had to do five workouts.
24:29
Like,
24:29
I ain't had time to go watch anybody
24:30
else's workout or try to go
24:32
watch somebody else's
24:33
workout and figure what they did.
24:34
Like, I was focused on me.
24:37
So if that's what ends up happening,
24:39
all of them get uploaded,
24:42
and then you end up getting
24:42
flagged because for whatever reason,
24:45
music, copyright infringement, blah, blah,
24:47
blah, okay, it's not viewable here, there,
24:49
or yonder.
24:52
It sounds harsh, dude,
24:53
but whose fault is that?
24:54
If you put it up when you do it,
24:58
if it's a last-minute thing
24:59
that you have no control over,
25:00
like I have to get this done or redone,
25:02
whatever, and it's...
25:04
Three o'clock on Sunday
25:05
afternoon and they do it five.
25:07
Okay.
25:08
That's one thing.
25:09
But if you got them all done,
25:10
like we had since Thursday,
25:12
I did my last one Sunday morning.
25:14
I had it uploaded by noon Sunday.
25:17
So Lito says that's why I
25:19
mute all my videos.
25:22
Um,
25:22
it's a known problem that music gets
25:24
dinged,
25:25
just mute in advance and upload early.
25:28
There's also an option with
25:30
the new versions of AI.
25:32
You can actually go into
25:33
your video once it's up and
25:35
you can have it remove the music.
25:38
Yeah.
25:39
So it'll keep everything else.
25:40
Like your spoken word will stay,
25:44
but all the music is gone.
25:47
But you have to have it in
25:47
in time for that edit to happen, right?
25:51
Yeah.
25:51
But just put it up as
25:52
private until you get that editing done.
25:54
Well, and then
25:59
That's another good reason
26:00
to hold up the board
26:03
beforehand with your name on it,
26:04
judge's name,
26:06
all that good stuff so
26:08
somebody can read it.
26:08
So if it does get flagged or
26:10
has to get muted, then it's done.
26:13
Yes.
26:14
What Leo just said right there.
26:15
Even YouTube offers the
26:17
option to mute the
26:18
copyrighted bit so that
26:20
video will still play.
26:22
And it's just, you just won't hear that,
26:24
which is fine.
26:25
They even give you the
26:26
option to use their YouTube
26:28
created music to put over
26:30
top of the music that you're eliminating.
26:33
So it doesn't look silly, right?
26:35
There's so many options.
26:39
Yeah,
26:39
they have like YouTube creators that
26:41
put out stuff that's
26:43
royalty free and it'll
26:45
allow you to take that and
26:46
just slap it right over
26:47
whatever you're removing.
26:50
The part that
26:54
I understand what the part he's saying,
26:55
like,
26:56
because it seems to be just a mayhem
26:57
problem as far as the, the,
27:00
the judge's thing is
27:00
concerned and his is a more
27:02
or less a technical failure, right?
27:05
Still on him.
27:07
But I would argue that this
27:08
stuff that happened in mayhem is still on,
27:11
still on the athletes.
27:14
Yeah, they got invited.
27:16
It sucks for them.
27:17
It absolutely does.
27:18
But I am not going anywhere
27:20
that I do not know.
27:22
One hundred percent.
27:23
Like if I'm trying to make the game,
27:24
I'm trying to do as well as
27:25
I can in this semifinal
27:27
stage so I can keep advancing,
27:29
keep getting better.
27:30
I am going to make damn good
27:32
and sure that the people
27:34
that are going to be taking, you know,
27:37
basically taking my athletic career,
27:40
whatever you want to call it,
27:40
into their hands,
27:42
have everything they're supposed to have.
27:46
Maybe, maybe I'm that dude, but do we know,
27:50
do we know if Grundler got
27:51
Grundler's athletes got the
27:53
same thing that mayhem did?
27:56
I have absolutely no idea.
27:57
All that.
27:58
I haven't, I haven't dug that, that,
27:59
that I dug down into that.
28:01
As far as that is concerned,
28:03
I just saw that people were
28:04
saying that bill didn't the
28:06
fact that he's not come out
28:07
and addressed it,
28:09
not anywhere that I've seen.
28:10
Anyway, it's kind of weird.
28:12
I would think because yeah.
28:18
He's so well-known.
28:19
He is such a face and a voice in, you know,
28:24
all of the things that for,
28:28
like we were saying the other day, dude,
28:30
you know, I know, like you get,
28:32
you know when your L-one is up.
28:36
You just know.
28:39
All of ours as coaches are
28:41
printed on the gym,
28:43
like the print versions and
28:44
frames with our little
28:45
picture next to it.
28:47
At the gym.
28:47
So I can go look at it whenever I want to.
28:50
Or with anybody else.
28:51
I can tell you that, yep,
28:51
mine expires in twenty twenty six.
28:54
Yeah,
28:54
when I was coaching at my previous gym,
28:57
we all had our certificates on the wall.
29:00
And you could look at the
29:01
expiration date of all of them.
29:04
Train to live is verifying
29:06
judge credentials will be
29:07
added to everything else, i.e.
29:08
cameras, backup cameras, backup batteries,
29:11
extra cords.
29:13
Yeah.
29:15
All of that.
29:17
When I was doing the documentary on Rudy,
29:19
Rudy Berger, he has a team that has, like,
29:23
three cameras.
29:24
They have three cameras on
29:26
every workout in case one goes down.
29:28
They've got two others.
29:30
Like,
29:30
it is insane the amount of steps they
29:33
take.
29:36
Dude, last year for quarterfinals,
29:37
I was doing that –
29:40
the three rounds, fifty wall balls,
29:43
fifty burpee box jump overs workout,
29:45
and I was halfway through
29:46
my second round of burpee
29:47
box jump overs when one of
29:50
my partners said, hey,
29:53
this camera's not on.
29:56
And I had,
29:57
and that was one percent my fault,
29:59
instead of putting it on do not disturb,
30:00
I just put it on airplane mode,
30:02
thinking it would be the same thing.
30:03
And I got a spam call in the
30:05
middle of my workout that
30:07
killed the video.
30:12
It's terrible.
30:14
Yeah.
30:14
That was a horrible workout
30:15
to have to redo halfway.
30:17
I did it one and a half times.
30:18
Absolutely terrible.
30:24
Hopefully they'll add it for individuals.
30:26
At least if you're an individual athlete,
30:28
after what you've just seen
30:30
and you have not learned
30:32
from this fiasco.
30:33
A hundred percent.
30:35
Like when it comes your turn,
30:37
you better be going down
30:38
the checklist and making
30:40
sure all of the stuff.
30:44
That is one hundred percent
30:45
on you at this point,
30:46
if you can see all this
30:47
stuff that's going on and
30:49
not have all your ducks in
30:51
a row by the time it's time to go.
30:54
Yeah.
30:56
Insane.
30:57
It.
30:58
Man, yeah.
31:03
So much is happening.
31:06
I can't wait till these five
31:07
days are over though.
31:09
Like I'm stressed and I'm
31:10
not even an athlete.
31:11
Like I'm stressed for Jamie, for you,
31:14
for Lito,
31:15
for all these people that are
31:16
like waiting, waiting for that final,
31:20
like, okay, you're good to go.
31:23
Like I kept texting Jamie,
31:24
do you get any more emails?
31:26
Do you get any more emails?
31:28
Hey Jamie, do you get any more emails?
31:29
Hey, you heard anything from HQ?
31:32
HQ, email me.
31:33
Yeah.
31:34
I will say I'm excited that
31:37
I have not gotten anything
31:37
from HQ whatsoever,
31:40
which means that either my
31:41
videos are good or nobody's
31:42
looked at them.
31:47
Probably the second one.
31:49
My guess is we're focused on
31:51
that like top thirty five ish.
31:54
I'm hoping.
31:55
Yeah.
31:55
Somewhere top fifty,
31:56
let's say somewhere up in that area.
31:58
Yeah.
32:00
Yeah.
32:00
So we're not worried about
32:01
seventy eight right now.
32:03
No, thank God.
32:04
Leave me alone.
32:05
Leave me alone.
32:06
I'm good where I'm at.
32:09
I'm good where I'm at.
32:11
I am back to normal training
32:13
as of this week.
32:15
If you really want to know
32:16
what the threshold is.
32:19
I would love to know what
32:20
the threshold is.
32:20
Super review.
32:22
I would.
32:23
Absolutely.
32:24
And I don't think we ever will.
32:27
Unless somebody goes and like,
32:28
that would be one hell of
32:30
an analytical deep dive to like,
32:33
See how many downvotes a video got.
32:37
Like you'd have to go
32:38
through everybody's stuff,
32:39
see how many down they got
32:40
and see if they got reviewed.
32:42
I don't even know how you'd
32:43
be able to tell if it got
32:44
reviewed at that point.
32:46
Well,
32:46
the only person is the athlete
32:48
because they get the email
32:49
that tells them it was reviewed.
32:51
Right.
32:51
So you'd have to put a poll out,
32:55
talk to those people,
32:56
see how many they got.
32:59
see how many they were at
33:00
when they got the trigger,
33:01
when they got the email
33:02
that said it was... And even that,
33:05
I think you're still coming
33:06
out with basically an
33:07
educated guess at that point.
33:09
If I was CrossFit,
33:10
I wouldn't tell anybody.
33:13
Yeah.
33:15
Like if we're going to do
33:16
this again next year, if I was CrossFit,
33:19
I wouldn't tell a single
33:20
soul because all that does
33:22
is open up the floodgates for...
33:29
Well, good job.
33:29
So Halpin says he's doing
33:30
that review outside looking
33:32
in and those that show a
33:33
scoring adjustment,
33:34
how many votes they had.
33:36
Yeah,
33:36
but what it won't tell you is the
33:39
people that got reviewed
33:41
and didn't get a score change.
33:45
Right.
33:49
So a leader said,
33:53
all my emails said
33:54
following public reviews,
33:55
your video was accepted.
33:57
Yeah, I know there's two emails.
33:59
Like Carolyn got some that said,
34:02
based on public voting,
34:04
we did a further review of
34:06
your video and your video
34:09
has been accepted.
34:11
And then others said, hey,
34:14
workout number three was accepted.
34:16
And they leave out the other part.
34:20
And she had three that had
34:22
deeper dives and two that
34:24
were just accepted.
34:28
but all of them were accepted.
34:30
So she had no score change.
34:32
So like that won't show up
34:33
on Mike's spreadsheet.
34:35
Right.
34:36
Right.
34:37
Even though three of them were reviewed.
34:39
Anyway, like I was saying, if I'm CrossFit,
34:45
I'm keeping that number as
34:46
close to the best as possible.
34:47
I hope that doesn't leak out
34:49
because next year it would just make it,
34:52
it would cause that much
34:53
more of an issue where people knew that,
34:54
oh, well, if you get
34:58
your video is going to get
34:59
immediately reviewed.
35:00
Well, then people are just going to,
35:01
you know, human nature at that point.
35:06
Some people, I would say,
35:07
are just going to go in
35:08
there and just get people
35:09
to just go downvote it
35:10
until it gets reviewed, no matter what,
35:12
or if it's good or not.
35:13
Yeah, I think that's a Pandora's box.
35:18
Jake says,
35:19
that window behind Corey is
35:20
really far away.
35:20
How big is that room?
35:22
You don't know.
35:22
My boy is big wigging it.
35:24
He's got the big office.
35:28
The big closet.
35:29
You've got the corner office
35:30
with the view of the mountains.
35:32
The view of the mountains
35:33
right here in South Louisiana.
35:34
There you go.
35:46
So they were considering the
35:47
video reviews.
35:48
So what they did is they
35:49
determined if it met a certain threshold,
35:53
they got a further review.
35:54
That's how they considered the, the,
35:59
um the votes to do the video
36:02
reviews I think is what you're saying
36:18
Yeah.
36:18
Halpin said,
36:19
I would also be able to see a
36:20
high number needs review
36:22
that didn't have a score change,
36:24
which is also interesting
36:25
as it means the community
36:26
voted improperly according to HQ.
36:29
Correct.
36:32
Yeah.
36:33
That's going to take a lot of work, man.
36:35
Which we know happened.
36:37
Yeah, we do.
36:38
I can promise you that happened.
36:41
uh we'll work out a ton ton
36:45
of down votes um that lunge
36:49
like everybody dinged so it
36:54
it's interesting no I was
36:55
saying yesterday I don't
36:56
remember where I saw it at
36:57
but like there was two
36:58
different standards shown
37:01
in the video as far as the
37:02
lunch is concerned like how
37:03
did and turning around so
37:09
But I think a lot of people
37:10
felt like people didn't
37:12
come to full extension at the top.
37:15
Because you're trying to go fast, right?
37:17
So you're like up and trying
37:19
to hit extension and go
37:19
right back down as quickly as you can.
37:23
And usually just because of
37:25
the pure space that took,
37:27
you don't have a really
37:28
great angle to see that
37:31
extension on video.
37:35
No,
37:35
and not all angles are created the same.
37:39
Like I had to make the best
37:41
they do because of how our gym is set up.
37:43
Like it didn't make any
37:45
sense to me to set it up.
37:48
Like they asked to set it up.
37:49
So I had to kind of move
37:52
stuff around as far as that's concerned,
37:53
but to get to the feet and
37:55
make sure you could see the
37:55
dumbbell and make sure you
37:56
could see the box that I
37:58
was going to be jumping
37:59
over and make sure the box
38:00
is five feet away from
38:01
where the dumbbell is.
38:01
I got done with my last snatch.
38:04
I just tossed the dumbbell.
38:07
Well, that's what happened.
38:10
So that's what happened in
38:11
Stevie Dellinger's video.
38:14
They put the stuff there,
38:15
they measured it all,
38:16
and then they were seeing,
38:17
can you see this?
38:18
Can you see that?
38:19
And then they kept moving
38:20
the box to make sure you
38:21
could see both sides of the box.
38:25
After they measured it.
38:26
And then measured it after they moved it.
38:29
So I'm thinking, and again,
38:31
there's no comment to tell
38:33
you why it was changed or
38:35
why they did it.
38:35
So you're just going on pure assumption.
38:39
But my assumption is because
38:40
she didn't remeasure the
38:41
distance from the dumbbell to the box,
38:44
they gave her a penalty.
38:46
I tell you what I did is I marked,
38:48
when I measured from the
38:50
dumbbell to the box, I put a tape mark.
38:53
where I was going to put the
38:53
dumbbell so that, hey,
38:55
this is my five foot.
38:57
There's a tape mark.
38:58
Like, here's a line.
38:59
I'm starting behind.
39:01
Here's a tape mark behind the line,
39:02
which my dumbbell is going
39:03
to sit on at the very least.
39:06
But I did that last snatch, dude,
39:07
and I just,
39:08
I got it further away from the
39:09
box because I didn't want
39:10
to have any kind of, any kind of,
39:13
any kind of reason for somebody to go, oh,
39:15
well,
39:16
his dumbbell is right there by the box,
39:18
you know,
39:18
while he's doing these box jump overs.
39:22
Lito, she's asking,
39:24
assuming Stevie would have
39:25
gotten the reason for the
39:26
penalty in her email, I would assume that,
39:28
but I've not seen one where
39:30
there's been a scoring
39:31
adjustment to know if it
39:32
was spelled out for the athlete.
39:35
But I believe in years past, it does say.
39:41
The other thing,
39:41
like where her dumbbell was,
39:43
and I'm not trying to pick on Stevie.
39:44
I think she's a great athlete.
39:46
And she just happened to get
39:47
a scoring adjustment that I
39:48
saw that affected Carolyn's landing.
39:51
So it's not that I'm picking
39:53
on her at all.
39:54
She also used a chalk line
39:56
for the dumbbell instead of tape.
39:58
And it was like handwritten.
40:01
So it was a squiggly line.
40:04
But I don't think that would
40:05
have affected it because
40:06
the chalk line was there
40:07
from beginning to end.
40:09
It didn't like get erased in
40:10
any form or fashion.
40:17
Lito said, if you look at Sarah's email,
40:20
said that she only did
40:22
twenty nine burpees.
40:22
If you look at her stories.
40:23
Yeah, I thought so.
40:26
In years past,
40:27
CrossFit has usually pointed
40:28
out why they've given you a penalty.
40:32
I thought that rule was kind of harsh.
40:34
But if for no other reason that, okay,
40:39
add a second to my score, to my time.
40:45
That's where it gets tricky though.
40:49
if you did all three rounds
40:51
that's one thing but if you
40:52
did twenty nine one round
40:53
where do you draw the line
40:55
of hey it takes a second
40:56
because there is a build up
41:00
of fatigue fatigue that can
41:03
affect the moves after and
41:06
so that's all arbitrary at
41:07
that point I don't disagree
41:11
I do think it's harsh for
41:13
one burpee to stop the
41:15
workout bam especially if
41:17
if it's at like if it's in
41:19
your first round dude like
41:20
you still got two more
41:21
rounds to go like now your
41:24
score is uh stevie was
41:30
given a one minute and
41:31
forty second penalty uh
41:33
which moved her from second
41:34
to fifteenth overall
41:35
Yeah, we looked at all that yesterday,
41:38
and she's still going to
41:39
the games as long as
41:41
everything else is accepted.
41:43
And she's going to be great at the games.
41:46
She's a great athlete,
41:47
and she's probably going to
41:48
compete with Caroline and
41:51
Caroline Klutz and all of
41:52
those ladies for the championship.
41:57
So she's still going,
41:59
and someone as fit as
42:00
Stevie is going to be fine.
42:06
It's interesting now that
42:07
everybody can see all the
42:09
things no matter what.
42:13
And like, so, I mean,
42:14
when you talk about public forum, dude,
42:15
like we are now,
42:16
we are now very much a public forum,
42:20
especially being able to see that, no, no,
42:22
this needs review.
42:23
That's unviewable completely.
42:25
This person is not even the
42:26
person they said they were
42:27
whenever they got on the thing.
42:30
That was insane, by the way.
42:35
I think the fear of getting
42:36
judged over your video made
42:38
people do the best they
42:40
could to meet all the standards.
42:44
I would say that, but yeah.
42:50
Yeah.
42:51
Yeah.
42:51
Dude, for me, like.
42:55
Leader said not all reps are
42:56
created equal.
42:56
One burpee isn't the same as
42:57
one jump rope or which
42:59
isn't the same as one rope climb.
43:00
Correct.
43:04
Absolutely.
43:04
Carolyn made the point yesterday.
43:06
Like if I miss a double under,
43:07
do you stop the workout for
43:10
one double under?
43:11
And so you're right.
43:13
Like they're not created equal,
43:15
but by this standard,
43:17
wherever you missed a rep, it ends.
43:22
Right there.
43:23
Yep.
43:26
And double unders are the worst account.
43:29
Not my favorite thing to do.
43:32
Man, I'd do five extra just in case.
43:35
Not my favorite thing to do.
43:36
I'll go until my judge tells me to stop.
43:40
I'm not even – I'm counting in my head,
43:42
but, like,
43:43
even if I do fifteen and they
43:46
say I'm at forty-eight, then, okay,
43:48
we're doing two more or
43:49
however many it is.
43:50
Like,
43:51
I'm not stopping until they tell me good,
43:53
and I will roll on through
43:54
with it because I'm not
43:56
getting dinged for that.
43:57
Same way, dude.
43:59
For the open, the –
44:03
Thruster pull up chest of our thing.
44:10
Because I can't count.
44:11
I did twenty one or twenty
44:14
chest or twenty pull ups to
44:15
start off with.
44:16
And my judge was like, hey, man,
44:17
you need to do another pull up.
44:18
Like, yeah, I probably did.
44:21
I took ten,
44:21
did another one and went on
44:25
about my business.
44:28
What I've learned is get a
44:30
good judge that you trust,
44:32
that's willing to tell you
44:33
when you've done it wrong,
44:35
that's willing to tell you
44:36
you didn't count right
44:38
because the ramifications
44:42
of that are so big now.
44:45
So big.
44:48
It's just not worth having to redo it,
44:50
especially if you end up with it.
44:52
If nothing else goes wrong,
44:55
And like you said,
44:56
you missed two double
44:57
unders or you miscounted a
44:59
burpee or something like that.
45:01
And nothing else goes wrong
45:02
during that workout.
45:03
You got a phenomenal score.
45:06
And then you go back and
45:07
look at the video and you go, oh shit,
45:10
I got to do this again.
45:13
Like that's demoralizing at that point.
45:16
And have someone look at
45:16
your video before you submit it.
45:19
Like say, hey, look at this.
45:21
And tell me,
45:22
did I miss anything along the way?
45:26
Tell you, dude, Benorn got, God bless him,
45:28
him and Jeff,
45:29
they took my camera away
45:31
from me after I got done
45:32
and went back and, all right, show me.
45:37
Train to live.
45:38
Guess this shows having a
45:39
judge taking courses and
45:40
having an L-one maybe isn't
45:41
that important.
45:45
I mean, he ain't wrong.
45:48
I think it's overkill, but sure.
45:52
An L-one,
45:54
while it helps you
45:55
understand the methodology
45:56
of CrossFit in the best way possible,
45:59
does not teach you how to
46:01
judge a competition.
46:02
No.
46:05
I know people who have their
46:06
L-ones who have no business
46:07
judging anybody whatsoever.
46:09
It is also that because you
46:11
have an L-one and you know
46:12
what good movement is
46:12
supposed to look like,
46:13
does not mean that you move
46:14
well or know what good
46:16
movement is supposed to look like.
46:19
Denise says,
46:20
I got a penalty on workout
46:21
three and it was a correct penalty.
46:24
Did your email tell you why
46:25
you got the penalty, Denise?
46:32
Lito,
46:32
I feel like the advanced course
46:33
should have had a lot more
46:35
counting in it.
46:38
My thing with the videos are
46:39
you need to video an elite
46:40
athlete going at elite speed.
46:44
That's what people need practice with.
46:47
Yeah.
46:49
Not whoever they had,
46:51
Joe Bob from down the street.
46:53
I mean, yeah, he was moving well,
46:54
but... Then he said, yeah,
46:58
great explanation too.
47:01
Good.
47:02
That's encouraging.
47:04
That's encouraging.
47:05
I hate to cut this party short.
47:07
Wednesdays,
47:08
we always seem to run over and
47:11
I've got a one-thirty
47:12
meeting and I need to eat something.
47:14
I don't know why.
47:17
So...
47:19
And I'll leave it on this.
47:20
Jay Birch,
47:21
competition movement is
47:22
different than gym movement.
47:23
Yes, it is.
47:26
My first judging experience
47:29
at regionals and it was team.
47:31
My first judging experience.
47:34
Holy cow.
47:34
When they started moving, I was like,
47:36
I have never been in this
47:38
ball game before.
47:42
These are not normal human beings.
47:44
What's happening right now.
47:45
Right.
47:45
And that was the team competition.
47:47
Yeah.
47:50
I was outside lane like I
47:52
was new so I didn't get any
47:54
of the preferential
47:54
treatment um dude the first
47:58
time I saw elite athletes
48:00
move in person or even back
48:03
when that's watching uh
48:04
scott pancheck at legends
48:06
uh this past year dude like
48:08
there's elite athletes and
48:11
then there's the scott
48:12
panchecks of the world I
48:14
would not have wanted to
48:16
I mean,
48:16
I say that judging him probably is
48:18
fairly easy because he moves so well,
48:21
but he's also moving so
48:22
fast the entire time.
48:24
Like you got to keep up.
48:27
Yeah.
48:28
So, yeah.
48:28
To those of you who do that elite judging,
48:30
God bless y'all.
48:31
I wouldn't want to do it.
48:32
There's no way.
48:34
Well, don't forget tonight,
48:36
five PM cats catching feelings.
48:39
She said it's going to be a wild show.
48:41
She had a first date last night.
48:43
She had a wild night Friday
48:45
night with the girls night out.
48:48
So she's going to share all
48:49
of that tonight.
48:50
Make sure you check in to
48:51
that five PM Eastern standard time.
48:54
And then tomorrow I just
48:56
started watching behind the
48:57
scenes of mayhem that I
49:00
I think Taylor did for Savan.
49:03
I'm about fifteen minutes in so far.
49:07
Pretty cool.
49:09
But I'll let you know how
49:10
the whole episode goes
49:11
tomorrow when we get back
49:13
here for lunch with the Clydesdale.
49:15
With that time to get back to work,
49:16
you knuckleheads.
49:17
Lunchtime is over.
49:19
We'll see you next time.
49:20
Lunch with the Clydesdale.
