- 0:32Welcome to the spin. We're never late.

- 0:41That's right. Guys, I'm sorry.
- 0:44Abby has been making a habit of exploding like 2 minutes before
- 0:51we start it. Two weeks in a row this has
- 0:53happened. She like Jack.
- 0:55Jack. That's like 628.
- 0:56It's time for her just to unleash the world in her diaper.
- 1:02Hey, sometimes you got it, you know what I mean?
- 1:04And I'm not as quick at it as Leslie is, but you know, we get
- 1:07through it. Sherry saw on the phone with Tia
- 1:13100% that's what we were doing. I was calling her.
- 1:16I said thank you for posting your announcement an hour before
- 1:20the show. We said, Are you sure we don't
- 1:22want to get woodland here? We told, we told her, hey, just
- 1:26wait. Yeah, don't do it on Tuesday.
- 1:29They wanted to do on Tuesday, Spend reached out to, Shane
- 1:32said. Just wait.
- 1:33Wait to lift. That up.
- 1:34Lift that up. That's how it works.
- 1:37The news comes out on Wednesday because they know this is the
- 1:39most popular CrossFit show out there, at least on Wednesday
- 1:42nights. And so yeah, JY can definitely,
- 1:48definitely. Not far enough to pre empt
- 1:50explosions evidently. I can't, I can't.
- 1:54I can't make it happen quicker. Tyler.
- 1:57I could know it's coming. It's not going to help anything.
- 2:00Yeah, I am not lucky. It's it's skill.
- 2:03Wednesday night is the time for CrossFit news to come out.
- 2:09No guests this week, Copasur. We get news.
- 2:13Yeah, I mean, we just get news. So that's about it.
- 2:17But before we get into all of that, let's start with some
- 2:21viewer comments, because that's always, always.
- 2:25Comments. Yeah, let's take a look and see
- 2:30what was said. A few of them on the road trip.
- 2:34So we they. Like that idea?
- 2:37Yeah, Chad Scott, I think JY and I would have a great road trip,
- 2:42maybe some sports talk, but otherwise just us and our
- 2:45thoughts. In the road.
- 2:47Who is it? Who is this commenter?
- 2:49This was looks like Chad Scott. Or Chad.
- 2:52You have two first names, but I won't judge you for.
- 2:54It Yeah, I have a hard rule it's no dudes in the car with two
- 2:58first names I. Don't even.
- 3:01Really. Buy that rule?
- 3:02No, definitely not Ricky. At Alex Frank, so we're 2 for
- 3:08two or Alex Franks, I don't know.
- 3:11Either way, close enough. JY and I would get along on a
- 3:13road trip. Well, I'm just getting along
- 3:16with everybody I guess. Y'all acting like I was the.
- 3:19Worst easy there Loquay. How is Jon pretending he's some
- 3:25sort of stoic Rd. tripper? Jon not talking?
- 3:29Really. People don't get to finish their
- 3:31sentences around Jon. Dude, you're not Jr.
- 3:34There we go. That's more like it.
- 3:36Yeah, me and Jr. whatever. Fantastic.
- 3:40Actually. Have you been alone with Jr. for
- 3:43like longer than 30 minutes? I think Jr. is a complete
- 3:46different person in. Person Yappa Yappa Yappa.
- 3:49Than he is online you get Jr. going on something man he's.
- 3:55But he he. Takes off.
- 3:57He really does. This suspend JY and I would
- 3:59fight on the whole Rd. show. You'd be walking.
- 4:06Missus Finn is spicy. Yeah, she would not take your
- 4:09shit. All right at the Clooney's
- 4:12adventures. Great show, boys.
- 4:15If you want a preview of the World Fitness Project, check out
- 4:18Grand Slam Track. That just happened over the
- 4:21weekend. That was, I think it was last
- 4:23weekend, 2 weekends ago when we were in Mayhem.
- 4:26Very similar set to what World Fitness Project is trying to
- 4:29produce, but for track and field.
- 4:31They had all the money, all the athletes and it was meh at best.
- 4:36So I did some research on this one.
- 4:38If they have signed prose with the with the salaries, they have
- 4:44challengers. So there's like 3 modalities
- 4:48like short, long distance and like sprinting or something like
- 4:52that. And the crowd was meh at best.
- 5:00Look like it look like the West Coast classic, right?
- 5:04Like certain certain spots you could be like OK, looks fine and
- 5:07then other parts you'd be like no, there's nobody in the stands
- 5:11and Michael Johnson is behind it.
- 5:15The The Olympian $12 million total prize burst for the year
- 5:20if you win your little event. So each like long distance runs
- 5:24like a 3K one day and a 5K the next day.
- 5:27The sprints are like 100 meters, 200 meters.
- 5:30If the if you win your little thing between the two two races,
- 5:37you win $100,000. Dude.
- 5:40Wow, that's. Got to be more money than any
- 5:42track meet ever. Usain Bolt gets 500,000 for
- 5:46breaking the world record. That's a little different.
- 5:49So it's yeah, lots of money there.
- 5:51I'd have no idea about the viewership or anything.
- 5:53It was on like it was on the CWI think is what I could find.
- 5:56Like I. Don't know.
- 5:59Formally known as the WB. Did I Did you guys know they get
- 6:05every? I don't know if USA does, but a
- 6:07lot of the countries get bonuses like that for breaking the world
- 6:10record. So that's why they only like
- 6:11lift 1K more. So when they break the world
- 6:14record in the Olympics, it's only 1K over because they so
- 6:17they could just break it again the next weightlifting meet and
- 6:21they just get another $500,000. That's that's why I don't know
- 6:25if it's $500,000 for everybody, but that's why they only break
- 6:28it from my 1K. That's smart.
- 6:31Yeah, they don't in China. They don't put your kid into the
- 6:33concentration camps if you break it.
- 6:36Otherwise you do. They're pretty rough.
- 6:39They're in China. Let's see what else do I got at
- 6:44CYBYP 60? I used to like you guys.
- 6:50It's one of Elon's kids, I think.
- 6:51Yeah, he, I, I used to like you guys.
- 6:54It had four thumbs up, so you smile, but so apparently five of
- 6:59us. There was also another comment
- 7:02underneath that one. Do you care to read that one?
- 7:04I don't have that one. It says that one.
- 7:06They didn't sound like you, I think.
- 7:08They never liked you anyway. Julian Iford, great show guys.
- 7:14Question for John. All right, let's hear it.
- 7:17Is Griffin Rowley and his team your main competitors in the
- 7:22Grid League this season? I I don't know what you mean by
- 7:25main competitors. Like are they the best team?
- 7:28We actually won't play them in the season unless we play them
- 7:31in the playoffs. And I actually don't think
- 7:35Griffin's on the team anymore. So, but I don't think he's on
- 7:39their roster right now. Him or Amanda Fisher.
- 7:43What about the the one guy that tried to?
- 7:46Yes, that's her name. Her name is Amanda Fisher.
- 7:49That's not her real. Name Her last name is not Thigh.
- 7:53That's when your when your handle becomes more important
- 7:56than your real name. That's when you know you made.
- 7:58It I, I don't think they're playing this year.
- 8:01So, but yes, I, I would say their team and is probably our
- 8:05biggest rival, if you will, But I mean, we're a new team.
- 8:08So like, how much of A rival can you be?
- 8:10What about Tommy Soroka, the guy that was?
- 8:13I think he's, I think he's still on the team.
- 8:16I think he's yeah, that'd be good.
- 8:18I feel much better about beating him than Griffin.
- 8:20I'm gonna tell you right now if I I would, I don't think it's
- 8:25Griffin wins every time. I think, I think it's a
- 8:27guarantee, but I feel much better about going to
- 8:31Soundtroker than Griffin when it comes to weightlifting.
- 8:36Did you do practice this weekend?
- 8:38We did, yeah. How'd that go?
- 8:40It was really sloppy. It did, honestly, it wasn't
- 8:43great. I think everybody trained on
- 8:45Friday and it's we had practice on Saturday.
- 8:49I did have Isabel on Friday because it was the only time I
- 8:52can get a photographer there. And for our for our little
- 8:57thing, we'll, we'll talk about it too, I'm sure.
- 9:01And man, everybody was just tired.
- 9:03But it's nothing. Everybody can do everything.
- 9:06We were just slow. So we'll be better.
- 9:10OK. Thank you, Crossfat.
- 9:11I want to. I want to like, I want to.
- 9:13I don't think people understand what goes into like a full match
- 9:17and great like you're pretty ripped up by by the end of it.
- 9:21It's. You do like 6 reps and you're
- 9:23done right? Yeah, but it's just very
- 9:25intense. And then there's not, there's
- 9:27such a quick turn around like you can't, it's not a CrossFit
- 9:30workout. It's like go as hard as you can,
- 9:32rest for two minutes as hard as you can, rest for two minutes as
- 9:35hard as you can. And you just repeat, for
- 9:38instance, like I'll give you this is what happened this
- 9:39weekend. So I did.
- 9:43And one of the things it's called triad.
- 9:44I did 15 hang kettlebell snatches with a 70 fine rest, 20
- 9:50seconds, 15 wild balls with a 30 rest, 20 seconds.
- 9:54And then 15 hang squat cleans with 155.
- 9:57OK, you're fine, You're fine. But you're, you're juiced up
- 10:00like your legs feel it and you're out of breath, but you're
- 10:03fine, right? Two-minute rest and then I have
- 10:06to touch and go 315 for three. It's not just, yeah, go do it.
- 10:12No warm up in between. So like you juice yourself
- 10:15freaking up and then two minutes you have to do that cold.
- 10:20Like there's no, no weights you want to touch in between.
- 10:23And like, thankfully I was able to do it, but but like, I mean,
- 10:26my legs were shook enough that I don't know what, I don't know
- 10:30what this is. He did one KG.
- 10:33Yeah, he did. 180K he did, £400 for three, for what I don't
- 10:37know. For three, dude.
- 10:39OK, All right, here's the thing. You have I I don't, I don't care
- 10:43what he does, what he did, and how much weight it was at all.
- 10:47You have to be able to move faster than the other person.
- 10:51And there's not one thing that guy can do faster than me.
- 10:53Well, maybe one thing, but that's just a family show.
- 10:58Look Kale, layman's in the chat. Send me Adm spin.
- 11:01I don't have your number, Kale. I don't think that's the real
- 11:04Kel Layman. You don't think so?
- 11:05You don't know that. We do not know that.
- 11:09We do not know that. We really don't.
- 11:13But John could probably send you the link.
- 11:16We'll never be able to prove it either.
- 11:23Got quiet there, John. This is a reminder.
- 11:34Subscribe leave comments, we'll read them next week on the show.
- 11:40Moving on to some semifinal, I guess mayhem.
- 11:45We got some interesting news with the in affiliate semifinals
- 11:52for the age groupers on Friday. CrossFit said that they were
- 11:58aware that there are quite a few people who did who had expired
- 12:02CrossFit credentials. One of those was actually at
- 12:09Mayhem for the part of the AFJ, the director of competition, and
- 12:19because of this, the CrossFit is saying that they were going to 0
- 12:24out all those scores, do the video review, and then add the
- 12:31scores back to that based off of a modified score following that
- 12:37video review. That's caused quite a bit of
- 12:40frustration for some, because it sounds like there's others who.
- 12:45Did it right. Yeah, they they, well, they did
- 12:48it right. Or they're their like they
- 12:57didn't, their judge didn't have the advanced judges course.
- 13:01And so they got their scores zeroed out for the not having an
- 13:04advanced judges course. Oh God.
- 13:08But yeah, yeah. So like, why is it if somebody
- 13:14doesn't have their L1, which you think you would know, right,
- 13:19versus somebody not taking the advanced judges course for one
- 13:22of your judges? Let me see.
- 13:25I had somebody had posted something.
- 13:27Let me see if I can find it real quick.
- 13:32I think Hillary may have called it out too.
- 13:34Let's see. Yeah.
- 13:36And that would that would I, I, I guess I kind of get this, this
- 13:40rebuttal, Michael. Michael Walsh.
- 13:47He's cool as shit. He's from the Walsh family.
- 13:52He. Is so yeah he takes he takes
- 13:56ownership. I was OK with with missing my
- 13:59own fault. A massive mistake and misread on
- 14:01my part. I had myself and another coach
- 14:03do an advanced judge's course. I thought head judge needed and
- 14:06everyone else just needed the normal course.
- 14:09However he was wrong. So what is hard now is to take
- 14:13that people with scores 0 for their judges having an expired
- 14:18L1 or not finished L1, their videos and scores are getting
- 14:21validated. He's raises as high as he can
- 14:24with CrossFit and Adrian Bosman and apparently his is in a
- 14:28different category so it will not be checked and that is the
- 14:31final decision. That kind of blows because you
- 14:36picked favorites. I can't.
- 14:38You opened up a loophole for one, but not for the other.
- 14:42And I cannot remember if this is the guy that I was talking to,
- 14:45if it was somebody else. There's another masters athlete
- 14:49that was hoping to go to the Games with his son.
- 14:53Was it? Oh, it's him.
- 14:54Yeah. So Michael and his son both at
- 14:56or, or any qualifying spots to go to their age group Summit or
- 15:01finals CrossFit Games. And yeah, it's his score has
- 15:09been invalidated. His son is fine because he
- 15:11because Michael has his L1. So I think his son is going to
- 15:14be OK but he will not be able to compete with his son, which to
- 15:18me I'm struggling to understand that.
- 15:24Understand what? Why not having an an L1 expired
- 15:31L1 is given an exception, but not having an advanced judges
- 15:38course it's new. This this goes, I mean this
- 15:45would be a Bryson argument and and probably 1 I would agree
- 15:48with Bryson on is that like if you held to the standard in the
- 15:511st place and you just said like, hey, sorry you didn't have
- 15:55your L1, your scores invalidated.
- 15:58Like once you start opening up exceptions, you have to keep
- 16:02opening up exceptions. And so they've caused this
- 16:05problem on their own. And this, this, this really
- 16:08blows. Yeah.
- 16:10I also really like Michael. So I'm a really pretty biased.
- 16:14I, I don't, I never, I don't know anything about Michael, but
- 16:16yeah, I saw his, his post there and I was like, I mean, it's, I
- 16:25also struggle with like this is the second year in a row that AF
- 16:28JS had something go wrong, right?
- 16:32Like you guys are the, from what I've heard, they're working with
- 16:36CrossFit on numerous things. You're supposed to be like the,
- 16:42the, the ones who know it all how to, how to follow this.
- 16:45And you don't have one of your guys have the, the L1.
- 16:49I've reached out to him. I've tried to get comments.
- 16:51I've tried to have, you know, people come onto the show.
- 16:54They're waiting until Monday. Before they comment.
- 16:58Before they comment when the when the scores are finalized.
- 17:01I don't understand why. I don't know.
- 17:04Nothing changes on Monday. Yeah, I, I, I don't know if it's
- 17:08Yeah, I, I don't doesn't make any sense to me.
- 17:14John, what about you? Do you have anybody in your your
- 17:17gym that did the did anything they have to go to a different
- 17:21affiliate to? Yeah, we, we had a one girl, but
- 17:25she went and had a vacation and Scotland at the time.
- 17:29So she did it in a gym in Scotland.
- 17:31And then, well, what they did is they just got like a group
- 17:35around like of all the people that made it.
- 17:39And then they all did the workouts together where they'd
- 17:42like and like had the same judges for each of them.
- 17:44And like it was just like a get together for these like 4 days.
- 17:48And but it was from everybody around.
- 17:51So they all figured out, hey, we're all going to do this gym
- 17:53and then, you know, segregate everybody else to different,
- 17:57different gyms and it worked out for them.
- 18:01But I'm, I'm in Tyler's camp. I think you, I think it's one of
- 18:04these things you have to enforce very hard and like, if you want
- 18:07to set this standard, then you have to abide by it.
- 18:11I kind of think it's a bit of like too much hoops to jump
- 18:15through. But if you if you are set on
- 18:19doing that, then I think you need to make everybody abide by
- 18:21it no matter what. Do you think it was an
- 18:24overcorrection from last year? I I think it's too much, but it
- 18:31I, I'm perfectly fine with people saying it's not too much
- 18:35or it's, it is how it should be. I get, I'm not, I'm not like mad
- 18:41by it, but it, it is a lot of hoops you got to jump through to
- 18:44get your stuff in and or you know, not everybody can get.
- 18:46I know my girl who's in the 40 to 44 year old division had
- 18:53trouble like we wanted, we really needed to redo the row
- 18:56workout and she had trouble finding 2 judges that could do
- 19:02it on Sunday, you know what I mean?
- 19:03Because she had done them all, but she had to squeeze them in a
- 19:07certain time when these people are available.
- 19:09And then if you wanted to do something last minute, he kind
- 19:12of didn't really have an option to, you know, so like if you're
- 19:16going to abide by everything they want and you should like
- 19:19that's how it should be. And I told her, if you can't
- 19:21find anybody, like then we'll live with it, right?
- 19:23And that's how it's you don't you don't get somebody and cheat
- 19:27and say you did it right. But I do think it's a lot to
- 19:31jump through, but I understand it.
- 19:33I'm not mad by it. And I think everybody, I think
- 19:36it's with what's if they're set on this is what we're doing.
- 19:40You cannot make any exceptions. That's because it's unfair to
- 19:44everybody that abided by the rules.
- 19:47It's unfair to everybody that did it correctly.
- 19:50Yeah, I mean, for for every story that it's like, hey, I I
- 19:53checked with my judge or, and they they were incorrect or I
- 19:58just didn't read the rules. There's somebody that's like I
- 20:00did XYZ above and beyond what I had to to make sure that this
- 20:05was legit. Like in some cases the the
- 20:08athletes or the the gym owners were paying.
- 20:12The like an extra judge to come in on a Sunday to judge these
- 20:17people or to pick get their judges course.
- 20:19Like, you know, it's one thing if you're at a mayhem, right,
- 20:24and you have AFJ and you have a bunch of athletes or wherever
- 20:27you know that has has a bunch. But if you're a small affiliate
- 20:30with one member, like there might be, there might not have
- 20:35another, there might not be two L ones if you're a super small
- 20:38affiliate, right? Or or what if you are the you're
- 20:42the owner and you're the only one that has your L1 right?
- 20:47Like mean you got to go find. Like that?
- 20:50Yeah. You got to go find two people
- 20:54that has an L1 somewhere nearby to make sure that you can do.
- 20:58This I agree. I think it's a lot.
- 21:01I think they over swung definitely in this.
- 21:03It also like is a weird invalidation on the entire
- 21:08process because like you have essentially have all these crazy
- 21:12level of reviews. You have, you know, you're
- 21:14supposed to have two judges. I think that's redundant in and
- 21:18of itself, but OK, you have two judges and then you have the
- 21:20community and if the community downloads it enough, it then
- 21:23goes through review to that. And it's like, so you're saying
- 21:26because 1 judge wasn't there of part of a three-part judge
- 21:30process, really a four part judge process, but one wasn't
- 21:33there that you can't catch the bads.
- 21:36Like that's crazy to me. It's just.
- 21:38And you also have to make your videos public like it's, it's, I
- 21:43mean, I think, I think that by itself is good enough, honestly.
- 21:46In Michael's case, like if I'm, if I'm HQ, I'm going through at
- 21:53least the top qualifiers. And then if you have any weird
- 21:56outliers, that's like they only hit, they only got like, you
- 21:59know, top 100 on this one workout.
- 22:01You go check those and then you're probably good.
- 22:04Like you don't have to do this for everybody.
- 22:05So invalidating somebody who's like, I don't know, 600th on the
- 22:09leaderboard, not a big deal. Like don't invalidate them, Only
- 22:13invalidate the ones that are like are super important or like
- 22:17review those ones that are super important.
- 22:19So it's like this seems like an easy way out.
- 22:21They could have just been like, hey, we'll review these if
- 22:24they're they're within this, but if not, like we'll just leave
- 22:27them good because it really doesn't matter.
- 22:30Yeah, yeah, I, I think first of all, I think especially too far
- 22:36are trying to keep to make it right in the gym.
- 22:39I I think in practicality, and we've seen Hiller find it like
- 22:44they're either lying about who they were as a judge, right,
- 22:48because they didn't have, they couldn't get a second person in
- 22:50there, or they're still like, he's just put the person to look
- 22:53like JY. Or at least he had the same
- 22:55shorts and shirt on as JY doing the half reps on the shoulder to
- 22:59overhead. Do you see that?
- 23:02Yeah, I think he's reps for a lot more half than mine.
- 23:05I think. I think if you, if you want to
- 23:09call like that's fine If you want to be a Dick about my reps,
- 23:12but like, let's let's be honest, like these were at least five
- 23:166th reps like you. I don't think you, I don't think
- 23:18you were in the same boat. That's cool.
- 23:20You chooses 6th as the denominator.
- 23:23You be you be you, because that's what it is.
- 23:25Listen, I got big biceps, guys. That's what locked out looks
- 23:28like. OK?
- 23:30Look, do you own those shorts? No, I don't.
- 23:34I don't. Is that Sean Young I.
- 23:36Don't. I'm that color.
- 23:37No, I don't see the resemblance. But you go ahead.
- 23:40You want me? You want me to take a video of
- 23:42people who can't squat past parallel?
- 23:43Just send it to you every time that happens.
- 23:46I thought that was drunk. What's also crazy is how wide
- 23:49his grip is. Like you're already like you're
- 23:51already pushing it bro, and then you're just not going to finish
- 23:54the Rep. Yeah.
- 23:57The judges, though, definitely all over it, though.
- 24:02Yeah. So I mean, you go through all of
- 24:04that and it's not solving it. Shout out to Hiller for
- 24:11expanding his repertoire. He finally has started to veer
- 24:14into the The Office references. He he, he hated that for a long
- 24:18time, yeah. The office is amazing, man, and
- 24:21it's filled. It's filled with wonders.
- 24:24I and then like the video review, I know you guys have
- 24:26talked about it on on Sivan like on Friday night and the update
- 24:29show. I I think it's masters, so we
- 24:35don't know how it's going to actually work.
- 24:38Yeah, we got two out two out of the four layers.
- 24:40So that that is a good Rep. I don't know how I feel about
- 24:47the the community judging, but I think we have to see it play out
- 24:53on individuals because I mean, I took the judges course.
- 24:58I watched a few. First of all, it's boring.
- 25:01Like I can guarantee people are not watching a 20 minute video
- 25:05legitimately, right? Like it is.
- 25:09You're not going to waste hours of your day doing it.
- 25:12I think people are going through and just like not liking
- 25:17somebody and hitting it. I think we what we all called
- 25:21for is just making them public so that when somebody did get a
- 25:23penalty, we can go back and look at what CrossFit was looking at,
- 25:29right? Like if when Paige Powers got
- 25:30her penalty or Sidney Wells or Pat Veldner, we want to see what
- 25:34the actual video was. So do you think the answer is to
- 25:37make your videos public but not able to like vote on and then
- 25:42that way we can see it the social.
- 25:45Media process of this will work fine, like #1 Hitler exists and
- 25:50he's going to give anybody shine that that veers off the path.
- 25:53And so then CrossFit sees that and goes and checks it if if the
- 25:59community's talking about it, it's bad.
- 26:02Didn't didn't Kyle Ruth wasn't he complaining about it because
- 26:06he got a bunch of down votes? I think he I saw that he had his
- 26:09approved like all of his workouts.
- 26:10Yeah, it's like it doesn't it doesn't mean that you're going
- 26:13to get a penalty. But if you are definitely a note
- 26:17more notable name. You're the one that is getting
- 26:19looked at, right? Either, I mean, who are we going
- 26:22to pull up? You had to pull up a really bad
- 26:25workout. You're going to have that looked
- 26:27at like if you are, you know, top 20 everywhere and then you
- 26:29have 100th or the OR the inverse, your 100th everywhere
- 26:33in the second place on one, you're going to have that viewed
- 26:35at. But unless you're hip and steal
- 26:37pan chick Kyle roots like somebody that you know, Jason
- 26:40Grubb, people aren't going through the masters.
- 26:44They may go a little bit more through individuals, but I think
- 26:50we just want to be able to see what they're posting and that's
- 26:54it. They don't need to go through
- 26:55that extra layer. So I don't know would you have
- 27:02well, how would you handle the Tyler in in this situation?
- 27:07Me, if I'm opening up a loophole, I'm allowed.
- 27:11I'm, I'm going to give other people loopholes because you,
- 27:14you brought that on yourself. I, you can't, you can't pick
- 27:16favorites. And that's sort of what they
- 27:18did. I mean, I would handle it
- 27:20exactly like I said I would. I would see who needs to be like
- 27:24who the the key players are, who's on the top of the
- 27:28leaderboard, go through those. And then like if you fall in
- 27:31that list where it's like if you missed one of the of the judges
- 27:36or something, this didn't happen.
- 27:37You didn't know or both of your judges had a judges course but
- 27:42didn't know that both of them needed the advanced, the
- 27:46advanced. OK, reviewed it like, but then I
- 27:49would say at the end of this like, hey, next year we're not
- 27:53going to be kind about this. This is your warning.
- 27:55We know this is a new process. We're trying to be friendly
- 27:57about it. Get with the program.
- 28:00And if you don't do this next year, you're, you're done.
- 28:02Like, sorry, we, we rolled this out and we didn't make you guys
- 28:05more aware. I don't know which you know how
- 28:07they would have made people more aware, but this is your, your,
- 28:11your trial year next year. It's all.
- 28:14It's all axis. John, would you just cut
- 28:20everybody out or would you give the exemption?
- 28:23Would you do what Tyler does and give everybody the exemption?
- 28:27No, I think you cut everybody out.
- 28:30Including the AFJ people. Yeah, I think it's, I think
- 28:35it's, I think it's hard, but I think you abide by the rules
- 28:39that you set and it's and everybody next year will make
- 28:43sure not and go through the right process.
- 28:47I just think it's unfair for the people if you give the
- 28:49exemptions or whatever, it's unfair for the people who did it
- 28:52right or who went through the necessary steps to do it right.
- 29:00What if CrossFit realized that it may be overstepped and it's
- 29:03it it's a bad process? Then they should pay for it and
- 29:09have the wrath of everybody after they've just cut
- 29:12everybody. That's what this is.
- 29:16You know, do you think Dave thinks he overstepped the cardio
- 29:21programming in 2024 and he's going to change this year
- 29:24because of that it. Would have been different if we
- 29:26had the sledgehammer. John I.
- 29:31Would have changed everything you.
- 29:32Know what I mean? Like I don't if.
- 29:35We had the sledgehammer. You wouldn't be.
- 29:36Saying I just think you make a decision, you stick by it, I
- 29:39don't. And then if it could be a bad
- 29:40decision and you evaluate after, then don't make that decision
- 29:45again. I don't like a wish washy way.
- 29:49You're freaking you run this sport.
- 29:51I don't like going being wish washy and just going back and
- 29:54forth because you think you messed up and fixed it after the
- 29:57like I would fix it after the fact.
- 29:59Don't I don't know. I just I think you set these
- 30:02rules, you should abide by them. If it's bad and like you're
- 30:06like, well, we way overdid it. You don't just well, let's just
- 30:09go back like like, I mean, what do we do it like, let's just
- 30:13change the rules as our. Best, John, our best.
- 30:16Yeah, first of all, thank you Chaz for the 499.
- 30:18Appreciate it. I mean, I think this is where
- 30:22the ever changing like iteration process messes you up, right.
- 30:31And so I think I, I'm more, I learn more towards Tyler's side.
- 30:37Beside, I don't like how onerous it was in this.
- 30:43And I think you admit that you probably you went too far in it.
- 30:48And at this point, at least for the age groupers, you say, all
- 30:54right, anybody that has an issue, whether it's an advanced
- 30:57judging course or an expired L1 credential, we're going to
- 31:03review it. Oh, Abigail likes that.
- 31:06She wants. To review it, yeah.
- 31:10When I think you'd come out and say, hey, I think I think we may
- 31:12have gone too far right, Like we had.
- 31:16This is why we had the intention to do it.
- 31:18And it it, it in practicality, it's, it's too difficult and we
- 31:23understand that it caught people up.
- 31:26We're working to resolve it. The other thing I would do is
- 31:31it's good that it happened now in the Masters before in
- 31:35affiliate semifinals happens, I would put Baz or somebody in
- 31:41front of a camera and I would like, I'd get him this close and
- 31:44I'd be like, listen, individual athletes, if this happens to
- 31:47you, we're not changing it. Do it right.
- 31:51We're not doing this again. So.
- 31:53I'm, I mean, I'm fine with that. I, I invited, I invited David
- 31:57Baz, either of them on no response.
- 32:01So I wanted to hear like their thoughts on what happened.
- 32:05But I, I, I, if I was them, I would actually backtrack and
- 32:08say, I know we said this, we need 1L1 and you don't, you need
- 32:13one person with an advanced judges course as your judges
- 32:17'cause I think it's, again, I think it's too much for it.
- 32:22And again, if you're going to have everybody have a community
- 32:25review and video review, why, why do we need to have it so
- 32:28strict when we can see just because you have that doesn't
- 32:31mean that you're going to call it right?
- 32:33So yeah, that's that's kind of where I stand.
- 32:38Before we move on to the big news of the day, I do want to
- 32:42spend some time on Syndicate Crown down there in the bottom
- 32:46left hand corner. That is AQR code.
- 32:50Yeah, way down there. That is AQR code to register for
- 32:55the community divisions, four person teams.
- 32:58There's some pairs code spin. Just like anything.
- 33:02Code spin gets you 15% off. Is it spend 15 or just spin?
- 33:08Just spin. All you got to do is spin.
- 33:10We keep it simple here. Code SPIN gets you 15% off your
- 33:14registration fee to compete in the community division.
- 33:18Not only that, you get a free ticket to watch the action.
- 33:23Not only that, when you compete, it's not overlapping with the
- 33:26elite individuals looking to qualify for the games.
- 33:30You get to compete in the morning and you can go watch, go
- 33:33in, watch the the the best individuals in the East compete
- 33:38for two game spots after that. So just 'cause you're competing
- 33:42does not mean you'll miss the action so.
- 33:44Go, guys, it's going to be all. It is.
- 33:46Freaking fun event. Me and Tyler will be competing
- 33:49as well in the community pairs so you can see us.
- 33:53Have you gotten feet on your team yet?
- 33:56No, I'm taking a girl from my gym, Summer, she kind of
- 34:00comments sometimes me and Summer are doing the open division.
- 34:04No, I've evaluated. I didn't.
- 34:07I didn't realize what my day was going to look like, but it's I
- 34:12mean, I'm going to be pretty roasted everyday.
- 34:15So I'm I'm just I'm doing, I'm doing easy beasy.
- 34:19I want he's open on this, on the community.
- 34:22I think I heard Tyler got Abigail Domit to do the open
- 34:25division. I I did.
- 34:27That's cool. That's cool, partner.
- 34:30That's totally fine, I think. Partners.
- 34:32A stretch, actually. See, I, I think me and Anton are
- 34:37going to make like bets on like just how much she buries you in
- 34:40every workout and then it'll be fun for me.
- 34:42I'll just watch y'all die, you die.
- 34:45And then me and Summer, we'll just have a good seat.
- 34:47You know what I mean? Black cat, leisurely, 50 RPMS.
- 34:50You know, just just have fun with the community, man.
- 34:53That's right. Me and you pick the parts that
- 34:54we want to do and then we put it off on everybody else.
- 34:56We'll just race our little pieces.
- 34:58All right, Isabel, dude, I'm going to do Isabel like 7 times
- 35:04that weekend because I have to do a, a clinic and then we're
- 35:07doing Isabel like partner Isabel and then I got to do Isabel like
- 35:12165 Isabel in the open and then heavy Isabel like before
- 35:15everybody. Is it 165 in the open division
- 35:17or is it 135? I think it's one, it's maybe 165
- 35:20was quarters division, maybe that's what it was.
- 35:22But I'm doing a, I'm doing a clinic and then we're doing it
- 35:25again. I don't know who I'm doing that
- 35:26with, but. Are we, are we allowed to talk
- 35:29about have we talked about heavy is or John and Isabel it?
- 35:33Was announced. OK.
- 35:36Yeah, they put it on Instagram. Yeah, we talked about it last
- 35:39week, right, 'cause you. Don't think I remember posting.
- 35:41That there's still a there's still a few spots, guys, if you
- 35:44want to go against me and heavy Isabel right before the elites
- 35:48go, it'll be basically like heat 0 and then as soon as we're
- 35:53done, heat one will kick off with the individuals.
- 35:57So have you seen who's signed up for it yet?
- 35:59I have seen, yes. Are there some people who can
- 36:03hang? There's a, there's a dude who
- 36:04snatches 315. I'm like, that's a cool guy
- 36:07here. We'll see how you are in Rep 20.
- 36:10But the, the, the, I, I mean, he's, he's cool.
- 36:13He's thick. He can snatch 315, and he did
- 36:15all right. I'm.
- 36:18I'm so excited for that part. Like it's going to be great.
- 36:21We're literally going to get the like 10 Bill Murray slots and
- 36:26then the elites are going to go. So we're going to have a crazy
- 36:30like here's the. Here's the thing, man, Like all
- 36:33of the dudes signing up are like pretty good at it, Similar to
- 36:36me, you know what I mean? They're just they're they're
- 36:40just really strong, like like like like again, like that guy
- 36:44snatches 315, right? So like, I don't, I think it'll
- 36:47actually be a pretty comparative heat to the elites, maybe
- 36:51probably even better than the. 1st.
- 36:53Three and then you know, heat 4 might be better but.
- 36:55Think about that. Like, I mean, you have to be
- 36:58able to do it at 2:25. You don't want to go out there
- 37:01in front of the full crowd and then just like not do, yeah, get
- 37:06time. That's the thing, yeah, you
- 37:07can't just, I agree. I think you have to be very
- 37:09confident you can do it with 225 and those people, you know, I,
- 37:14I, I think everybody will make it under, under, under the time
- 37:18cap that does it. Of the people that I've seen,
- 37:21they're like, they're like 2 guys.
- 37:23They're two guys that I'm like, they might beat me.
- 37:27I, I hope, I hope they don't, but they might beat me.
- 37:30I think dad could beat every single person, including D to 15
- 37:36and then and then after that, and then, and then after that,
- 37:40it's a wrap. I'm, I'm serious.
- 37:42I think he might be the best in the world to, to 15 and then,
- 37:46and then it's over. The wheels are off and then the
- 37:52wheels aren't off like the car's in a ditch.
- 37:54I'm telling you right now. But but, but I'm telling you, I
- 37:57don't think anybody could beat him to 15 straight up.
- 38:00Please, Larry, please. Go moving into the house can
- 38:04wait a week 3. Sets of three, sets of five,
- 38:07touch and go at 2:25 and then I'm done.
- 38:09I'm done. Hey, that's worth one shot.
- 38:13You're 1 opportunity, Larry. You got to, you got to
- 38:16capitalize on this. I'm and I'm I'm hoping for a
- 38:19special guest that people don't know about, Tyler doesn't know
- 38:22about. Nobody knows about it.
- 38:24I'm the only one who knows about it, but I'm hoping for a special
- 38:26guest. Wilson knows that's it, at
- 38:29least. Wilson knows yeah.
- 38:34So yeah, use the QR code down there if you want to do it
- 38:38later, Competition corner, if you look for it again, code spin

- 39:09banned and now they're not so unbanned.
- 39:14Unbanned. Moving on to the big news this
- 39:19evening, Tia clear to me, I guess she's retiring.
- 39:24Is that how you interpret it? People are tripping on that.
- 39:28She didn't say retire. She said goodbye.
- 39:31What's how? Much play more than you need.
- 39:36Well, let's see. Let's see what she says.
- 39:41Why is it not voluming? Oh, come on.
- 39:47You got to click the little little sound right there in the
- 39:49bottom right corner. Couldn't reach it.
- 39:52As most of you know, in May I'm taking the floor at the Taurian
- 39:56Pro. But this time it's different.
- 40:02This time it's my moment to say goodbye to this chapter.
- 40:07This sport has given me everything, every challenge,
- 40:14every triumph. Dominance, that is.
- 40:16Tia to. Me, and most importantly, the
- 40:18incredible community that surrounds it.
- 40:22Competing to be the most dominant athlete in CrossFit
- 40:25history has been my life, my passion, and my purpose.
- 40:30And it shaped me in ways I could never have imagined.
- 40:33But I'm always going to remember and be so grateful for the love,
- 40:37the lessons, and the legacy I will continue on striving to
- 40:41build. Now it feels only right to bring
- 40:44it full circle, celebrating where it all began, in the place
- 40:49that ignited the drive and determination to pursue this
- 40:54path. So join me in this exciting
- 40:58time, doing what we love and surrounded by the amazing energy
- 41:03my home crowd brings year after year.
- 41:09Very good. For you girl.
- 41:13John, you got your wish, buddy. So it wasn't a wish, it was a
- 41:18certainty. It's a demand.
- 41:21Tired to watch you to win. Listen, listen, I don't know if
- 41:24y'all don't understand this. If I say it's going to happen,
- 41:27it happens. But you just need to, you just
- 41:29need to. She could have.
- 41:31Retired when she was 83 years old and John would have went
- 41:34told. Y'all.
- 41:37And then she's retiring. Listen, I Albany free making it
- 41:42tea and retiring just if I put ether, it's going to happen.
- 41:46I just y'all just. Need October 7th definitely
- 41:48happened. I had bad.
- 41:50I had bad info. October 7th was bad info.
- 41:55RIP October. 7th. Y'all don't even know what
- 41:59October 7th was about. It was.
- 42:01It doesn't matter. We know that you were wrong.
- 42:04Nothing happened on October 7th. Yeah.
- 42:08Saying goodbye has to be in retirement.
- 42:11Like, does it mean that like, that's her last competition?
- 42:16Is that how you're reading it into it?
- 42:19Yeah, disappointed. Disappointed.
- 42:22Yeah, Goonies never say goodbye. Just.
- 42:26Damn. Yeah, no, John, you called it.
- 42:31You said Torian could be your last time competing.
- 42:37Go back to Torian, hang it up after that.
- 42:43It's what it'll be emotional, it'll be cool.
- 42:45I mean, they're going to give her so much love.
- 42:50I you think you think she's more happy and like, like, you know,
- 42:58like happy with retiring and like her career and like looking
- 43:01back on it and having going to be more happy at touring in.
- 43:05Or do you think every other girl who's in the games is more happy
- 43:10because for the first time in a long time, you can count Laura
- 43:14if you want, but for the first time in a long time, we don't
- 43:18know who's gonna win. And that's pretty wild.
- 43:23And like it could be a lot of people.
- 43:26I mean, I almost think we should do, we should make what's today,
- 43:29April 17th, April 17th should be Tia Toomey Day, 'cause that was
- 43:34the day that somebody else could win the CrossFit Games.
- 43:37Today's the 16th. Is it, is it the 16th?
- 43:40April 16th, 17th in Australia? Boom.
- 43:44Yes, Sir. Spin.
- 43:45You're all over it, buddy. Yeah, April 17th is, is Tia
- 43:48Toomey Day. It's it's like, it's like 8:00
- 43:52right now over there. Yeah, everybody's waking up in
- 43:55Australia, all of our Australian friends and.
- 43:59I mean, I'm excited. I'm happy for her and I'm
- 44:01excited for the women's field. It's it'll be, it'll be a, you
- 44:06know, it's going to be a great send off for if you're Gracie,
- 44:13if you're Gracie and Maddie, I think you should put her in the
- 44:15dirt. I don't think you should let her
- 44:17win. Question before you pivot into
- 44:21this, why do you think she announced this today instead of
- 44:24announcing it on the floor? He sells the tickets.
- 44:28Well, not only that, but this I don't, Tyler, I don't.
- 44:32You know, sometimes you're unaware, but you know the
- 44:35barbell spin is on a Wednesday. And that's true.
- 44:38News only comes out on Wednesdays.
- 44:40She could have announced it any other Wednesday.
- 44:43But how do we get the news out to the most people?
- 44:46And that's on announcing it. Announcing it, that's.
- 44:48True, that's true. Yeah, I mean, it's, I mean, I
- 44:54think she kind of hinted at it her last video.
- 44:56I think it was kind of there. But yeah, Torian Pro, it'd be
- 45:01interesting to see how tickets sell.
- 45:07Going forward, Matt, it only just when it fits our narrative,
- 45:10it's the only reason, OK. Well, there's some seats,
- 45:14there's decent amount seats. Looks like Albany at this
- 45:17moment. I'm excited for all of it, man.
- 45:22It'll be fun to watch. Do you do you think she'll still
- 45:24take top 2 and then decline her spot or I?
- 45:29I think it'll be a battle dude. I I don't think she lifts as
- 45:32much as she used to. I think she I obviously, but I
- 45:35mean I don't think she lifts as much to where it's like like she
- 45:38will get hurt in a lifting like for for top two.
- 45:42I'm saying like if she takes a 10th place in whatever lift even
- 45:47event they have that, that is devastating because you know,
- 45:51Gracie and Maddie are going to be top three in almost
- 45:54everything, right? So I, I think it'll be a battle.
- 45:59I think it'll be really, really fun to watch.
- 46:01I'm going to go ahead and say she does not get top 2.
- 46:05I don't think she's training at all.
- 46:07I think she's trying to win the High Rocks World Championships
- 46:09and she wants to do that. So I don't think she's training
- 46:12for CrossFit, and I think she's going to go to that competition
- 46:14and let it ride and see what happens, you know what I mean?
- 46:16You think she goes out on an L though?
- 46:19It's Tia man. I don't think she cares.
- 46:21I don't think she cares about CrossFit anymore.
- 46:24That that that is not in a bad way.
- 46:25Competitively, yeah, no, no, if this.
- 46:29Isn't training for CrossFit. I don't know what is.
- 46:33The old bamboo bar front squat, say.
- 46:38Look at that thing. Oh God.
- 46:40Yeah, that's what, Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
- 46:42That 12 * 3. That's all I see.
- 46:44I'm just saying she's not she, I'm not saying that she's not
- 46:48going to ever squat spin, but I'm saying she's not going to
- 46:51abandon a running session like she's.
- 46:54Going to be training. For high rocks and then and then
- 46:58dabble in like her CrossFit stuff, you know?
- 47:01But it's not. She's not training for Tori and
- 47:04she's just going to make sure she doesn't suck.
- 47:07Do you think she does Rogue? No, I think she's done.
- 47:12I think she does this and is like is done done.
- 47:15Completely done. That's right.
- 47:17I say goodbye, dude. I think yeah, she said goodbye.
- 47:22Not like see you later. I said good day.
- 47:28Yeah. So I mean, it's pretty
- 47:30interesting. I think this is do you think she
- 47:36cares about going out on a loss or a win or does he think she
- 47:40cares anymore? I mean, it's just hard.
- 47:46Like she's won everything and, and she's an Uber competitor.
- 47:50I can't see her going out there and just being like, I mean,
- 47:52hell, she retired and was like, never mind.
- 47:57You're right, yeah, A couple days later, I just.
- 48:00Think she's she's proven man, she doesn't need to.
- 48:04We got the vowels, yeah, curving.
- 48:10So thinking through, fast forwarded to the Games, we only
- 48:14know 2 two women who've qualified.
- 48:18John, who's your front runner to win the Games now?
- 48:23Man, I think we're just going to have to wait for the mountain to
- 48:25come out to see that man. It's.
- 48:28Forcing this on you so hard. Every day I think we're just
- 48:34going to have to wait and see. I don't think we here here how
- 48:37it how it is. I think I think it's truly
- 48:40anybody's anybody's to have. I think he could be literally 7
- 48:45different people. What a freaking what a freaking
- 48:49Lucy Campbell comes out with the games like like, I'm, I'm not
- 48:53going to predict that to happen, but.
- 48:56She's, she's like the highest woman on your mountain right
- 48:58now. No she's not.
- 49:00New mountain y'all don't know this yet so I've tried to get it
- 49:03but spin hates it. For some reason John's been
- 49:07balling for this for like 3 weeks straight.
- 49:11I wanted, I wanted to get it out before Tia retired.
- 49:15I knew it was going to happen and I wanted to get it out
- 49:19before it happened, OK. I wanted it to show before this
- 49:23and no Sprint got his wish. And now it sucks, OK?
- 49:28Like like it was it. I was, it was going to be
- 49:30beautiful. I had this beautiful solilically
- 49:34planned out for what it was going to be.
- 49:36And now it now can't be it anymore.
- 49:38It's like anything happens and John's like, you know, since
- 49:41this news happened, it would be a good time to put out the
- 49:44mountain and spins like, yeah, no.
- 49:46So can't. We can't.
- 49:48Can't overdo it, John. I I also have a problem.
- 49:52This is going to be a. A bit of a.
- 49:54Damper, a damper on what she just said.
- 49:56I had I, I think, I think I think Tia would have been better
- 50:00off saying I leave the sport as the best CrossFit at Crossfitter
- 50:05ever or even the greatest Crossfitter of all time.
- 50:08I would I would have accepted that.
- 50:10But she said most dominant and she was and as dominant as Matt.
- 50:16It feels like a Kareem Abdul Jabbar Shaq situation.
- 50:20You see what I'm saying? Kareem won more.
- 50:22He did. And Kareem's looked at as
- 50:23better, right? If you look on the all time
- 50:26list, I got no problem with that.
- 50:28But Shaq, everybody knows Shaq's peak was the most dominant thing
- 50:33you've ever seen. And so when she says dominant,
- 50:36it makes me just like, what? You, you weren't, you know what
- 50:39I mean? And I know, and that sucks
- 50:40because she's retiring and that everybody wants to be like, T is
- 50:43amazing and she is. I just I think she should have
- 50:46picked a better adjective is all I'm saying.
- 50:48Another back story, John, I, John and I have been going after
- 50:54the the Michael Jordan LeBron debate for a while.
- 50:58And so one day. I don't know if we have been.
- 51:00I feel like you try to bring it up and I don't want to.
- 51:03I don't, I don't. I know we have a different
- 51:05opinion. I don't care to have the
- 51:06argument. So one day a real pops up about
- 51:09how dominant Michael Jordan was and why he's better than LeBron.
- 51:12And I sent it to John. He didn't really care for it.
- 51:16But then, John, every day still to this day after that, I just
- 51:21get real after real after real of how much more dominant
- 51:26Michael Jordan was than LeBron. They did one, yeah.
- 51:31Like your algorithm, your algorithm hit it.
- 51:33That's all it takes. They did one where they read off
- 51:36a bunch of stats and they were like, you know, they would guess
- 51:39LeBron and the guy would be like, then he gets to the end.
- 51:42He goes, oh, I misread that. That was all Michael Jordan.
- 51:45And see, if you were a real fan, you would have known that they
- 51:48were not Lebron's in the first place.
- 51:50Yeah, that's true. You know, I, you can do that.
- 51:54You should do that with just something you don't believe in
- 51:57at all and like but like watch a video of it and then your
- 52:00algorithms, all that and then all.
- 52:02About it and then. You start to believe it.
- 52:03Dude it yes, and like if you just see it every single day and
- 52:07like I you can pick I can pick little things that like little
- 52:11stats every single day that LeBron dominates Michael in and
- 52:14then if it comes on your algorithm, same thing happens,
- 52:17but it's crazy if your algorithm just keeps feeding it to you how
- 52:20like you start to believe it. It's kind of scary because if
- 52:24somebody controls your algorithm, that's not cool, but
- 52:27you? Do John, I won't be controlled.
- 52:31Courtney Wiseman boys interrupted as trying to steal
- 52:33your show. Oh.
- 52:35They're on. They're on right now.
- 52:37I don't think they're on are. Can we see if?
- 52:41They're on the format. I think we should crash their
- 52:43show with our comment section. If that's really happening.
- 52:46Because yes, I think that I don't think they would know
- 52:48where it's coming from if we threw them a random word.
- 52:50You know what I mean? I.
- 52:51Didn't think they were doing it on Wednesday nights.
- 52:55No, they're not. If they're.
- 52:55Doing it. What's?
- 52:56They're not live. They're not live 0.
- 52:59Damn, I think the word should be mountain.
- 53:01But we can pick. We can pick a better word.
- 53:02We can pick a better word. That digs it, digs it, Jason.
- 53:06Yeah, I think Jason and Alan would both be like, what's
- 53:09what's going on, right. They probably like, did he come
- 53:13out with that and that like. They didn't start watching our
- 53:17show to see where they are on the.
- 53:18Mountain Justin and the Justin, it's like, what are we doing
- 53:21guys? What are we?
- 53:22What are we doing? That happened on Barstool.
- 53:24Somebody started a rumor that one of the employees had a rash
- 53:27and then everybody was just like, how's your rash doing?
- 53:29And he's like, I don't have a fucking rash.
- 53:31That's so funny, dude, that's so funny.
- 53:35Yeah, All right, I got a new game for you.
- 53:38Before we do that though, if you want to get the new barbell Spin

- 54:25bad that you are wearing your revenue, that you bought a a
- 54:31thing that. That.
- 54:33Advertises his name, that's what.

- 54:43will give a free JY Barbell shirt to all of those 9 do.

- 54:59wear it, but I'm going to give it.
- 55:01To you make it in vintage. I'm not sure what that means.
- 55:05They have the like the relaxed fit kind.
- 55:08So it's pretty close. Uh oh, John's done.
- 55:15Oh oh. All right, Sorry.
- 55:22Oh, there we go. We can bring that up, Jeanette.
- 55:25We can. Bring that up.
- 55:26Do we do we get a free T-shirt if we piss people off every time
- 55:29we write an article? That's kind of how it works.
- 55:32I. Can't.
- 55:36Find articles that's that's a good point.
- 55:38I would like to see an article that you would write, John.
- 55:40No dude, it would be really bad. Have I ever told you guys about
- 55:44my ACT score? Please do.
- 55:48Like, OK, you know, you know how AC TS is out of it's out of 36,
- 55:52right? So, so I have an like amazing
- 55:58science and math score. I forget what they are, but they
- 56:00are they're like mid to high 30s or mid.
- 56:03You know, it's 36 for like, you know, 3335 one of those it but
- 56:07it they're so high. My math and science and then
- 56:10reading was like a 29 or a 30. My English literally retarded
- 56:15like it was 22. I think I got was 22 in it and
- 56:19it brought everything down. It brought everything down so
- 56:22hard and and I think I took it like 3 times and every single
- 56:27time my English never got better and it and it just I can't see
- 56:30gladly brought everything down. John with them and Zeus, right?
- 56:38Right my it was the only college my English score was good enough
- 56:41for. I went to UK, you basically only
- 56:44have to go to high school. They're like you finished high
- 56:46school. Cool.
- 56:47Listen, I was like Ivy League, OK, math, science, and my
- 56:51English was Kentucky Mizzou. Subpar.
- 56:57Yeah. All right, let's let's do this.
- 56:59Yeah, Miss Watkins wrote an article titled Grassroots Health
- 57:06Revolution, How the CrossFit Medical Society is Transforming
- 57:09Community Healthcare. In that she interviewed Jennifer
- 57:13Pishko, who is one of the main players, I guess in CrossFit
- 57:18Medical Society, got quite a few quotes.
- 57:24And then I posted on Instagram. My bad to tell people that there
- 57:30was something out there and then all hell broke loose.
- 57:35From the sugar free revolution. Sugar Free Revolution.
- 57:38Karen Thompson. Pretty sure that's a ban Prince
- 57:41from the sugar free revolution. This article is factually so
- 57:47incorrect. Jen wasn't ever around during
- 57:50the CrossFit health days because if she was, she'd be aware it
- 57:53was so much more than the storytelling.
- 57:56Pathetic. So was I?
- 57:59Was I pissed? Well, you said cool story bro.
- 58:03That that was picking up for your wife.
- 58:07Oh, you all. Goodness, you're.
- 58:09So you can so much as like step on my wife's toe and I'll pull
- 58:13out a freaking knife. Like I, I, I kind of lose it.
- 58:17But then I really like read her what she said and I'll I, if one
- 58:23thing pisses me off, it's like a bad argument.
- 58:27And this was just so bad. How how you get pissed off with
- 58:32Taylor so much? Yes #1 because he interrupts me
- 58:35and won't, won't allow the argument to like go through its
- 58:38its course. But then yeah, he also like will
- 58:41just bounce at some point and call me gay.
- 58:46That's what it's. Over.
- 58:50But yeah, she said. It's factually incorrect.
- 58:52Jen wasn't around during the CrossFit health days, so it's
- 58:56like if you read the article, oh John, that might be difficult
- 58:59for you. My reading was fine, Tyler.
- 59:03OK, I was reading Harry Potter and Kindergarten.
- 59:06Get off of me. Jen never said she was around
- 59:12during the CrossFit health days. It's like so she said the story
- 59:17is factually incorrect. Her quote is factually or her,
- 59:20her little blurb there is factually incorrect.
- 59:23It's it's completely made-up. Yeah, and then Twin Yogi, who is
- 59:30Jeanette's twin sister, then jumped in the the comments.
- 59:35While coming from an author, you'd think she'd recognize a
- 59:37personal perspective when she reads one.
- 59:40Not everything needs to fit your narrative to be valid.
- 59:44So who is sugar free Revolutions Ben?
- 59:49Who is she? Karen Thompson.
- 59:52What? What does she do?
- 59:53Her name is Karen. Karen for.
- 59:56Real amazing. She is an author, a Wellness
- 1:00:00rebel, and a fierce living advocate.
- 1:00:03Of what? Sugar.
- 1:00:06Anti sugar. Oh, OK, I thought.
- 1:00:09She and she's a Victoria's Secret model.
- 1:00:12Really. I don't know.
- 1:00:13That's what it says right there. At my bio.
- 1:00:18Yeah, she wrote a book on something.
- 1:00:21I don't want to opt in so. So she's with BSI?
- 1:00:27She is with BSI and Metfix. I don't know to what degree.
- 1:00:32Yeah, she's associated, I don't know if she works for them or
- 1:00:34she's just buddy buddy with them.
- 1:00:36And it's like, I don't really have any problems with BSI, but
- 1:00:40like Jeanette just wrote this article to talk about CrossFit
- 1:00:44health or the CrossFit Medical Society and what they're what
- 1:00:47they're trying to do. Like she, the thing that, like
- 1:00:49Jeanette and I have been talking about this for years is doing
- 1:00:53more research in using, utilizing CrossFit gyms.
- 1:00:56And that's how Jeanette wrote an article a couple weeks ago and
- 1:01:01it was about that whole idea. And Jen reached out to her about
- 1:01:04that 'cause they want to do that too.
- 1:01:07And so like Jen or Karen just starts to go off and it's like,
- 1:01:13oh, wait a minute. Like they're just trying.
- 1:01:15UBSI has stated that they don't have any problems with the
- 1:01:18CrossFit medical Society or, or competing with CrossFit in
- 1:01:20general. And then I'm like, but this
- 1:01:23comes off as a rather competitive statement, like
- 1:01:26someone who's being defensive. Yeah, I don't.
- 1:01:29I didn't understand it. I don't, I don't think even if
- 1:01:35what if you took it out of context?
- 1:01:36I don't think what Jen quoted, like her quote, is anything bad
- 1:01:42about what CrossFit Health was. No.
- 1:01:46Like I feel like CrossFit medical society is the next
- 1:01:48step, right? Right.
- 1:01:51Like you start down that path and then you figure out how to
- 1:01:55implement in this, in this case, they're, they've created a, it's
- 1:02:00not insurance, they're called community care, but it's similar
- 1:02:03to it, right? It's, it's a replacement for
- 1:02:05health insurance that they're, they're using the affiliates, I
- 1:02:11guess is the best way to use to say it, that you can become part
- 1:02:15of this program with the idea being that hopefully the
- 1:02:19affiliates, I guess are probably a more healthy group of people,
- 1:02:25right? Like your risk is probably
- 1:02:27lower. I think the whole idea behind
- 1:02:31the I, I mean, I thought of this years ago.
- 1:02:33I don't think it was like a revolutionary idea, but it's
- 1:02:36like, if CrossFit really wants to like boost up how much money
- 1:02:40they can make. I mean, you're starting to see
- 1:02:42it like you can use your, your, your HSA or your FSA for like
- 1:02:47affiliates or like Mayhem even has it where you can use your
- 1:02:51HSA for their programming. I mean, that's huge if you can
- 1:02:55basically lower your deductible or overall healthcare costs
- 1:02:59because you go to an affiliate. Like you're talking about a
- 1:03:02crazy value that CrossFit can provide for both gyms and normal
- 1:03:06members. I mean, all of a sudden you
- 1:03:07won't care to spend $200 for a membership if you know that
- 1:03:10you're going to save 4 to $800 on your healthcare every year,
- 1:03:14right? So that's like the.
- 1:03:15General in some cases. Yeah.
- 1:03:17And it's like that's the general idea, I think, of what they're
- 1:03:21trying to do, and then also propagating further research
- 1:03:27into like what CrossFit does. I mean, like, this is the whole
- 1:03:29science part that we're trying to get at.
- 1:03:31BSI should be right along with that.
- 1:03:34If they're also on that mission, why does that cause a problem?
- 1:03:37Yeah, I didn't understand that. When I see Karen, Karen who's
- 1:03:45somehow like affiliated with BSI and she's being very
- 1:03:50argumentative and very defensive of that whole thing, I'm like,
- 1:03:53oh, so you do have problems, She said she didn't, But you're
- 1:04:00fighting an awful lot like somebody who does well.
- 1:04:05I mean, I still don't understand exactly what Netflix is, and I
- 1:04:12would argue that Broken Science Initiative is not.
- 1:04:18They're telling the story about how science is broken.
- 1:04:21They're not giving you the science of things in most cases.
- 1:04:25At least that's how I understand it.
- 1:04:27Right? Like they're showing how science
- 1:04:28is broken, which is a story, right?
- 1:04:32You're not conducting the science and telling you the
- 1:04:33results of their studies. Well, that's what that's what
- 1:04:36Jeanette said like or part of the the title and then part of
- 1:04:40the article is like science through stories.
- 1:04:43And it's like no one, no one buys anything if they don't
- 1:04:47understand the story of why this is important.
- 1:04:50And Karen had a big thing behind it.
- 1:04:52And that's what really got me upset is that she number one,
- 1:04:56she said I didn't understand science.
- 1:04:58Like this lady knows nothing about me.
- 1:05:00I would imagine me with 3/4 of an engineering degree, a wife
- 1:05:04who's a double PhD and have been in the university systems for
- 1:05:09years. I understand one or two things
- 1:05:11about science. That's not bad.
- 1:05:14Dare I say more than? 2 genders.
- 1:05:21Now, I may not know anything about language arts, but I do
- 1:05:24know about science. And so it's just telling watch,
- 1:05:30I guess watch what happens is this starts to it starts to
- 1:05:34unfold. It's funny.
- 1:05:35It's it's just again, it's one of those things where Jeanette
- 1:05:38wrote the article, didn't think anything of it.
- 1:05:40I post it like OK and then it then then something happens in
- 1:05:46the comments like I don't anticipate this at all like.
- 1:05:51We're just at that here over over at the Watkins household.
- 1:05:55He he, he anticipates it. He's like, oh man, dude, we're
- 1:05:59going to get some fighting on this one.
- 1:06:01He don't tell me you don't expect anything.
- 1:06:04I've been thrown under the bus like 27 times by you spin.
- 1:06:07You know what you're doing. I don't.
- 1:06:10I don't. I'm just really good at it.
- 1:06:12All right, John is rearranging Abby stuff.
- 1:06:19It's time to play a new game. Hang on.
- 1:06:26Play this. I like the Pukey pick, by the
- 1:06:28way. That was good.
- 1:06:28That was a good. Pull you like that?
- 1:06:30Yeah, it was trying to find something that made sense.
- 1:06:33I'll wait for John to. Top 10 game.
- 1:06:39Top 10 game. We'll see how how good you guys
- 1:06:43are. We can't hear you, John.
- 1:06:49He can't hear us, can hear us now.
- 1:06:52He can hear us. We can't hear you, bud.
- 1:06:57You got me now. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:06:58Welcome back. She's getting, she's getting
- 1:07:00fussy. So I'm I'm trying to.
- 1:07:02Well, well, this is this is probably the most important
- 1:07:05part. We'll finish it up.
- 1:07:07Top ten game. It's a new game.
- 1:07:10This time we're going to look at the top ten men, the career, the
- 1:07:17top 10 most career regional slash semifinal wins.
- 1:07:22Oh, this is like Family Feud. It is like family.
- 1:07:25Oh, I like this a lot. All right, all right.
- 1:07:27I'm with it. So we have a men and we have a
- 1:07:30women's leaderboard and so basically you guys will ping
- 1:07:34pong back and forth if you get 3 losses.
- 1:07:37If you give us three times you lose.
- 1:07:39OK, well the winner can see if he can finish it out.
- 1:07:42I guarantee you will not get the women's leaderboard right.
- 1:07:47We'll see. If I guarantee it.
- 1:07:49Although it is regionals, I'm not nearest.
- 1:07:52Regional and I'm not nearest and and first of all I want to thank
- 1:07:57Barkley Dale from Apollo Form for pulling the data A1 caveat
- 1:08:03the mayhem classic that happened last week is included in these
- 1:08:08numbers. So it is very up to date and so
- 1:08:12Tyler, we'll start with you. Who is one of the top ten
- 1:08:17technically 11 men on this list? Rich.
- 1:08:20Froning, Rich Froning, that is correct number 4 #4.
- 1:08:28Nice job. Tyler, John.
- 1:08:30Matt Fraser. That's a tough one.
- 1:08:32He is #1 Yep, let's see, I have, I have the stats here.
- 1:08:38Rich Froning, he, he had thirteen wins.
- 1:08:43Matt Frazier had 20. Question for you guys, when it
- 1:08:48says regionals, is this for the world or just their regional?
- 1:08:51Their region. OK, so OK, that makes a huge
- 1:08:55difference. That makes a huge difference in
- 1:08:57this. Yeah, he's not a worldwide
- 1:08:59leaderboard. This is it.
- 1:09:00Don't worry. Don't worry about it, Tyler.
- 1:09:01Don't worry. Go ahead.
- 1:09:03Tyler Pat Veldner Pat Veldner is on the list.
- 1:09:10Barely. He was down there tied for tenth
- 1:09:13with 10 regional semifinal event wins.
- 1:09:19John. Go Brent Fukowski.
- 1:09:22Fukowski is also on there. He is tied for 6th.
- 1:09:26Up there with eleven wins. Bunch of guys had 11.
- 1:09:33Tyler Justin Medeiros. That is incorrect.
- 1:09:40I'm going to go Jason Khalipa. He is there.
- 1:09:46He is fifth with 12. Tyler, you have one, one strike.
- 1:09:54Wait, are we out if we? Get 3, you get 3.
- 1:09:56Yeah, you're out. Oh shit, Josh, be ready to carry
- 1:10:01the team. Jesus, there's a whole bunch of
- 1:10:06people there. That should not be hard right
- 1:10:08now. I'm already running out of
- 1:10:11people in my head. BKG.
- 1:10:17Oh Jesus, that's two strikes. Oh my gosh, Tyler.
- 1:10:22Good group. All right, Josh Bridges.
- 1:10:24Yes, let's see, where is he? He is #3.
- 1:10:29OK, so I need I need. Like 16 event wins.
- 1:10:36Scott Panczyk. Jeez, you're down.
- 1:10:38You're you're still. Oh no, no, that is bad.
- 1:10:44Tyler. I needed you to do better than
- 1:10:46that, my man. Why you scared John?
- 1:10:49I don't think I could reel off all of them.
- 1:10:51Yeah, OK, good. Can John make it to the end?
- 1:10:55Everybody, I think, here we go. OK.
- 1:11:02That was a good guess. No, it wasn't.
- 1:11:04Scott Panjik's never won anything.
- 1:11:06Yeah, he's not even the top 30. Noah Olson, that is your first
- 1:11:11incorrect answer. Olson has seven.
- 1:11:14He has seven wins. OK, OK.
- 1:11:16Under over how many? Before John?
- 1:11:19Before John strikes out. Before we get into it, BKG had
- 1:11:23four event wins. Did PAC Panjik even win
- 1:11:30anything? I don't think he ever won an
- 1:11:32event. In our hearts he did.
- 1:11:35Yeah, he's, I don't think he ever won, I think.
- 1:11:37He got robbed. He got robbed of 1.
- 1:11:40Yeah, I I don't even see. He's not even the top 100 Tyler.
- 1:11:45Scott had three. He did, yes.
- 1:11:47He's 100 and tied for whatever. What place is this?
- 1:11:52Tied for 66th I'm. Going to go on a ledge here.
- 1:11:56I'm going to say Lucas Parker. Wow, there you go.
- 1:12:00That was one I didn't know if. There we go.
- 1:12:04Here's my thing, man. I'm like stuck.
- 1:12:05I have these like odd regions that I have to try to think
- 1:12:08about, right? Where these guys just won and
- 1:12:10you don't think of them #2 is killing me though, I feel like.
- 1:12:16It shouldn't be that hard. It might be before your time
- 1:12:19though. I don't know when they started,
- 1:12:25When did I hate that you said that that. 20 What was it 2012?
- 1:12:322011 there for. Sectionalism.
- 1:12:34Yeah. OK, OK.
- 1:12:39OK. All right, let's go.
- 1:12:41Dan Bailey. Close, but no.
- 1:12:45That's two strikes. Oh no.
- 1:12:50Oh man. OK.
- 1:12:52Dan Bailey had eight wins. There's got to be like a
- 1:12:56European guy there, too, all right?
- 1:12:59Oh. Oh.
- 1:13:00What about all right? I might miss it on this, but I'm
- 1:13:02OK with missing on this. OK.
- 1:13:05Ben Smith. Yeah.
- 1:13:06He's #2. OK, here we go all.
- 1:13:10Right. And that that was why it was a
- 1:13:11little bit before your time, because he won a lot of them
- 1:13:13before you got into it. I gotcha.
- 1:13:19OK, do. You want any hints?
- 1:13:23Oh, John gets hints. We get hints.
- 1:13:25I don't think that's fair. Like I just let me think, Just
- 1:13:28let me think. I can think of Australia and
- 1:13:29Europe and I feel like it's Rob Forte on there.
- 1:13:35Is that your answer? Oh no, no it's not.
- 1:13:37I don't like your smile, Yonokoski.
- 1:13:41Yes, Yonokoski is on there. Job, Jon.
- 1:13:45Come on, Jon. Man, I feel like Rob when a lot
- 1:13:52of them. I don't see the comments you
- 1:13:53guys are missing on the comments.
- 1:13:55I don't see any of the answers. I'm trying to I don't want to
- 1:13:58look at the the comments are we? Not going to.
- 1:14:00You're not going to get any help if you do, so it doesn't matter.
- 1:14:03Cool, that's cool. Actually I don't.
- 1:14:07I've only seen 1/2. Oh, I know who it is.
- 1:14:13Only only two of you have called out one.
- 1:14:16Spencer Handel. That is your third strike, John.
- 1:14:20Dang it. All right, all right, hold on,
- 1:14:22Hold on. Before you really give us a hint
- 1:14:23and then we'll try between the two of us.
- 1:14:26One is from South America. Oh.
- 1:14:29Dude OK, guy that sucks that. Sucks dude that.
- 1:14:34Doesn't that doesn't count? I think it does.
- 1:14:36Nobody cares. About South America.
- 1:14:38The last Jason, the last one is the Mayhem athlete.
- 1:14:45That doesn't help me very much. A Mayhem athlete.
- 1:14:52Current. Yes.
- 1:14:56Roman. But you have to think about
- 1:14:57that. Roman I probably, I probably
- 1:14:59should have gotten Roman guy. I don't care about it all.
- 1:15:03That's not even a thing. Like at least Jonokowski's fit.
- 1:15:07Like that's not fair. OK, But I'm happy with how we
- 1:15:10did there. I'm not.
- 1:15:13I'm not. I am really scared for the
- 1:15:14women. I'm not a regional savant, like
- 1:15:17I'm just, I'm. I'm not.
- 1:15:18I've never claimed to be. You guys are we're.
- 1:15:21Going to be fine. We're going to be.
- 1:15:22Fine, I don't think you guys get well let me let me go to the
- 1:15:25page first. I'm.
- 1:15:27Just going to think way back. I'm going to think way back in
- 1:15:29the day, dude, I got. This.
- 1:15:30Yeah, they just wrapped them up. Yep.
- 1:15:33So there's actually 13 on here because there were four tied in
- 1:15:3710th place. I don't think you get 4 strikes.
- 1:15:47I don't think you get 5 guaranteed.
- 1:15:49You guys do not get 5. I'm starting Julie Fouchier.
- 1:15:55Well, there's an X right there. What not?
- 1:15:59Hey, hey. Julie Fouchier has eight event
- 1:16:02wins. Oh Dang, eight event winsers not
- 1:16:05on on top 10. No, neither was the men.
- 1:16:10Actually both. Top ten is 10 wins.
- 1:16:13You have to have at least double digits to be in the top ten list
- 1:16:15of either. Right, there's one easy 1, John.
- 1:16:18Yeah, Annie Storr's daughter. That's right, right?
- 1:16:21Not the any. Any guess where she would be
- 1:16:22though? Europe on the list in.
- 1:16:27Europe I. Mean I feel like I think 80s
- 1:16:31number one man maybe #2. No, no, she's down here tied for
- 1:16:37fifth. 16 wins. So Tia's Tia's number one.
- 1:16:44Is that your guess? Yeah, T is a good guess.
- 1:16:47Tia is on the list. She is not number one first, she
- 1:16:51is not. I don't.
- 1:16:52She's down here tied for second with 21 event wins.
- 1:16:59K All right. Is it my turn?
- 1:17:05It is your turn, John. Let's go, Sam Briggs.
- 1:17:08Sam Briggs is on the list, and he guesses where she is.
- 1:17:11I don't care. Let's just go.
- 1:17:13Don't care. OK.
- 1:17:14How am I getting this? Tied for 8th event wins, huh?
- 1:17:21Laura. Laura.
- 1:17:25There it is. 10 event wins. John.
- 1:17:31Catherine. Catherine, she is on the list
- 1:17:35right above Miss Thora's daughter with 17 versus 16.
- 1:17:42I am going to say Cara. Cara Saunders is tied with Tia.
- 1:17:48Good job, Tyler. So there's seven left.
- 1:17:54Can you get, can you get three more or am I going to be right?
- 1:17:58I'm going to go. John's cheating.
- 1:18:01I'm telling you right now, he's cheating.
- 1:18:03No, I hate that we don't have #1 it's true.
- 1:18:12But you know what? I bet it's like some girl from
- 1:18:15Africa who just won and didn't actually wasn't actually good.
- 1:18:18Or Latin America. That is country.
- 1:18:20I'm gonna go Camille. She is #1 Camille LeBlanc.
- 1:18:26Bazinet has 26. That's wild, I would not have
- 1:18:30caught that. Wins, yeah, but she remember she
- 1:18:34competed in the South. Was it South, Central or South
- 1:18:38region? That's right.
- 1:18:39And there's like, no, like it was her and nobody else for a
- 1:18:43while. They were trash, yeah.
- 1:18:45They always had to throw in Mexico in there for a bit or
- 1:18:47Central America, just because they need to put them somewhere.
- 1:18:51All right, Tyler. This is tough, man.
- 1:18:59This is tough. I don't think you guys get
- 1:19:05another one right. I believe in you, Tyler.
- 1:19:09I'm like blank. Like it's when you try to think
- 1:19:11of something and just nothing comes to your head.
- 1:19:15The thing is like my brains trying to go to all those
- 1:19:17regions and it's trying to do too much at the same time.
- 1:19:22I'm getting overloaded. Oh isn't ready?
- 1:19:35Lindsay Valenzuela didn't compete long enough to rack up
- 1:19:37that many wins. That's correct.
- 1:19:42There we go, Tyler. Let's just let's just like boil.
- 1:19:44Just wait. Somebody feed me something here.
- 1:19:48Sheila Barden, are you out of your fucking mind?
- 1:19:54Let's see here who was a good competitor in Europe.
- 1:20:02I mean, I don't want Catherine wasn't good enough to win
- 1:20:05events. We already have Catherine.
- 1:20:09Do you mean Sarah? Yeah, Sarah, OK.
- 1:20:17I think Sarah's a fair shot. Tyler I, I don't, I, I have, I
- 1:20:22have one that I feel fairly confident about that's going to
- 1:20:25blow Spin's mind. That's a good one.
- 1:20:27But I don't, I think, I think, I think Sarah's a fine shot, man.
- 1:20:32Carrie Pierce? No, Sir.
- 1:20:36Carrie Pierce is not even close. All right, you ready for this?
- 1:20:40It's either going to be a home run or.
- 1:20:42Carrie Pierce only had five wins, Tyler.
- 1:20:47All right, John, let's hear it. Teresa Barnett.
- 1:20:58No. How did you were you?
- 1:21:01Were you scrolling? Were.
- 1:21:04You. Scrolling, I will hold my hand.
- 1:21:07That's the only one I had. She's Latin America girl.
- 1:21:10No, Latin America didn't have anybody that did the regionals.
- 1:21:14If they did like I, I remember going and doing this actually
- 1:21:19research I did with Brian, we're going back and looking at all
- 1:21:24the regional, regional winners and there was 1 leaderboard.
- 1:21:27If you look at Latin America, I don't know what year it is, 2012
- 1:21:30or 2011 or 2013. 20/11/2012. There's nobody there except her.
- 1:21:35It's like she is first place in all the events That was the.
- 1:21:39She won five in one year and six out of seven the next year in.
- 1:21:42I don't know any other Tyler. That was the only one.
- 1:21:45Oh my God. She won 11 events.
- 1:21:49I, I didn't believe it. I was like, there's no way this
- 1:21:51is right. I'm going to go out on a limb.
- 1:21:55Well, if they're all, if they're all the rest of them like that
- 1:21:57spent, that's the only one that I knew that.
- 1:21:59Was you have, you have. I don't know if the other two
- 1:22:04had been on the podium. At least one more podium athlete
- 1:22:07on there. Oh dude, I think Sarah's worth a
- 1:22:09shot then, man. Do I want to strike out on
- 1:22:13Sarah? You we have XS.
- 1:22:16I have two. I have two strikes on me.
- 1:22:19All right, go ahead. I know who I'm saying, but I
- 1:22:24don't think it's right. I'm going to go out on this and
- 1:22:27I don't care. Sung Young Choi
- 1:22:42so. No, she has six wins.
- 1:22:47Oh dude, I was hoping so hard, Tyler, I was.
- 1:22:49Hoping so hard. John.
- 1:22:58Jamie. Jamie Simmons or Jamie Green?
- 1:23:01That's a strike there, Chief of. Of South Africa.
- 1:23:07Of just Africa. Jamie Simmons has five event
- 1:23:11wins along with Carrie Pierce. Cool, is Tyler still in?
- 1:23:19No, but I'll I'll let him try if he wants because he ain't going
- 1:23:21to get any of them. I do you like I do you like
- 1:23:29Emily Bridgers? Yeah, I'm fine with that.
- 1:23:32Let's go, Emily Bridgers. You go Bridgers.
- 1:23:36Hey. We're on a board.
- 1:23:37Crushed the southeast region back in the day.
- 1:23:39Nice, nice. All right, I'm going to go.
- 1:23:45I Let's go, Sarah. That's that's an X.
- 1:23:49No, she has 9 so she's technically tied for what is it,
- 1:23:5414th? OK, I'm the only one letting
- 1:24:00Tyler. Tyler still gets to try.
- 1:24:03Yeah. Sure.
- 1:24:06I'm I'm going to say no, I'm not going to say Emily Abbott.
- 1:24:15Can we get hints? Yeah, I think we should get
- 1:24:17hints. Hold on, hold on, hold on.
- 1:24:19No, I guess let. Me just strike out before.
- 1:24:21We yeah. Let me X out first.
- 1:24:22Let me X out first. OK.
- 1:24:28What year was Terasa Barnett? 11:00 and 12:00.
- 1:24:31I'm going to say the Africa winner of 11 and 12.
- 1:24:35I don't know her name. No, that's an X.
- 1:24:40OK. John, you didn't even have a
- 1:24:43name and you got in there I. Was and I don't even have a name
- 1:24:45and I can tell you it's not right.
- 1:24:47Shot in the dark. All right, man, I'm just going
- 1:24:53to see myself out. Who John who were the athletes
- 1:24:58during a What's her face that just married Rasmus or is having
- 1:25:04a baby with Rasmus? Lauren Fisher, Yeah.
- 1:25:08Who were the athletes? I would guess her.
- 1:25:10Like like Michelle Etondra was really good.
- 1:25:14From California. Oh, from California, Brooke
- 1:25:17Ants, but she was only there for a year.
- 1:25:21Cassidy Lance Mcwhorter. I'm just I'm I'm just no, none
- 1:25:26of these things would fit. I'm just thinking of people.
- 1:25:28Emily Abbott, that's. Not that's.
- 1:25:32Not it wasn't. A China Cho would always win the
- 1:25:34rope climb event every year. Valley Ro Mobile didn't really
- 1:25:39win anything but was always good at everything.
- 1:25:42Hell with it, I'm going to say Lauren Fisher because we're not
- 1:25:45thinking of any more by more dominant than her.
- 1:25:48She didn't dominate anything nice.
- 1:25:51Lauren Fisher. Yeah, No, she didn't win all.
- 1:25:58Right. Yeah, Give us, give us hints,
- 1:26:00man. You got one in North, in North
- 1:26:03Central, you got 1-2 in Asia and you have one in Europe.
- 1:26:07OK wow, what the freak are we supposed to do with Asia?
- 1:26:11North Central. North Central.
- 1:26:16I'm going to say Akanwali. She's North Central, right?
- 1:26:20That's right, yeah. Let's go.
- 1:26:22What? Yeah, she'd always have a a few
- 1:26:25home runs. I probably should have said,
- 1:26:26well, I have an X out right. We I have an X.
- 1:26:28Out you guys are toast or you guys?
- 1:26:29I probably should have said Asia's not fair, man.
- 1:26:32That's not fair. So who's the other one that's
- 1:26:34not Asian? Yeah, give us the hint.
- 1:26:36Give us the hint for the other one that's not.
- 1:26:38She's from Europe, she's also competed in Africa, according to
- 1:26:43Tyler. And it's not, Oh, Kristen Holta.
- 1:26:47That's right, Kristen Holta. Dang, I would have only picked
- 1:26:51her to win the first event. She won 10 events.
- 1:26:55I guess you competed for 10 years if she did the first.
- 1:26:58Win the first one every time. I mean like like that's.
- 1:27:02That's true. Can we get any hints on the
- 1:27:05Asian? Is there any chance?
- 1:27:07One is still a current athlete and 1 is a athlete who competed
- 1:27:12in 2012 through 2015. She's a One or 2011 through
- 1:27:182015. Competed in the Games one time
- 1:27:22in 2011. Is Saint Archaea the one that's
- 1:27:26still doing it? It is, yeah.
- 1:27:30Who's Who's the top 10? Hold on, we might can get 2011
- 1:27:35dude. I there's no way from Asia.
- 1:27:39Yeah, just just real, just just just let's just think through
- 1:27:42it, man. She also competed in the
- 1:27:44Meridian region in 2015, if that helps the.
- 1:27:49Meridian. The Meridian.
- 1:27:50Meridian, 2011. Meridian, 2011.
- 1:27:55No, she was in Asia 2011 12/13/14 and then Meridian in
- 1:27:582015. So she would have competed with
- 1:28:01Cara in them. In Asia.
- 1:28:06In the Meridian. No, Meridian was the European
- 1:28:11regional. Oh OK, so she moved.
- 1:28:17Does she have the last name of another girl that has the same
- 1:28:21last name? General So that's racist, Judy.
- 1:28:27Do you understand what I'm saying?
- 1:28:28Spin you get a pass I guess. Spin what?
- 1:28:33Is is her last name the same as another last name of somebody
- 1:28:37who competes now? No.
- 1:28:42'Cause there's a girl named Candace Howe.
- 1:28:44Yeah, but I don't know what country she's from, but I
- 1:28:48remember that name, but it's not Asian.
- 1:28:51The the name is Candace. It might just change.
- 1:28:56It might. Is this, Is this the one I'm
- 1:28:57thinking of then? Barkley, Do I have it?
- 1:29:03Say it. I'd say her name was Candace.
- 1:29:06Howe but but I don't it. Was Candace Howe.
- 1:29:12Nice, John. Let's go.
- 1:29:14She's also goes by Candace Ford these days.
- 1:29:18Candace Ford. Is it Fjord or Ford?
- 1:29:22It is Ford, but it was Candace Howe.
- 1:29:23If I remember correctly, Barkley, you can check me on
- 1:29:26this. Her name is right next to Teresa
- 1:29:31Barnett. On the games leaderboard.
- 1:29:35Yeah. Yeah, I bet you couldn't pick
- 1:29:37Tarasa Barnett out of the line. Oh, no shot, Tyler, But I look,
- 1:29:41I look at the leader. Listen, I have photographic
- 1:29:45memory of every leaderboard there is, and it's just I just
- 1:29:49got to catalog. It he ate Rome, look at.
- 1:29:56There, look at there. Wow dude I got this.
- 1:30:01Autism comes in clutch for top 10 things.
- 1:30:06Click on her profile. I want to see these people.
- 1:30:08I'm not going to win any lotteries, but I know I can pick
- 1:30:11these names. Oh, that's impossible to see.
- 1:30:15Perfect. Yeah, I would never.
- 1:30:20I would just that's that's dude. I I'd have no If you showed me
- 1:30:24your face, I would have no shot. To Russell Barnett's doing some
- 1:30:29box jumps there from the Cayman Islands, so.
- 1:30:32Nice. So there you go, top 10.
- 1:30:37Good job, John. I I I didn't do good, but you
- 1:30:40did good. I mean, I didn't do, I didn't do
- 1:30:43great either. That was tough.
- 1:30:45I know, I knew, I know. But like those random names,
- 1:30:48though, I don't know that they're top ten in victories.
- 1:30:51He just. If they would have, they
- 1:30:53wouldn't have said, hey, these names are impossible.
- 1:30:57I think you would have been. Fine.
- 1:30:58Oh no, I would have just said Sarah.
- 1:31:00I would have just said other. Good.
- 1:31:01Yeah, all the good. You know what I mean?
- 1:31:03They they just said, Hey, you're never going to get these.
- 1:31:05So then I'm thinking, OK, who are the people?
- 1:31:09Let me tell me 11 these names that make no like aren't a
- 1:31:13thing, you know what I mean? And that's, that's you see, you
- 1:31:15see what I'm saying? I would have never gotten there
- 1:31:17had a they said. They're they're impossible.
- 1:31:19Maybe she married. I don't know.
- 1:31:21I I just count the numbers and that's it.
- 1:31:25There you go, last one real quick.
- 1:31:28Copa Sewer. That's this weekend.
- 1:31:31That's exciting all. Right, next topic.
- 1:31:39There is a live stream here. It is if you go to the Copa
- 1:31:42Sewer YouTube channel. It will be live streamed for you
- 1:31:47all three days in English too, so starting at 12:50 central
- 1:31:54time. Sewer and the leaderboard, we
- 1:32:01went through it last time a little bit.
- 1:32:02I don't know what that is. Competition Corner has the
- 1:32:07leaderboard that that updates faster than the game site.
- 1:32:12Really. It does a bunch of workouts.
- 1:32:20I will tell you, they're squatting with thrusters.
- 1:32:24They're squatting with a barbell complex.
- 1:32:28Wait, there's Echo Bike? What's that?
- 1:32:30That's that's squatting. That's squatting.
- 1:32:32What's going on though? Yep, triple chipper.
- 1:32:36There are some. No squatting.
- 1:32:38So yeah, but the seated legless rope climbs, if you have to keep
- 1:32:41your feet over your hip line, you're using your legs.
- 1:32:45Heavy as belt that he's got, these these South American
- 1:32:48athletes will definitely have to squat.
- 1:32:50I I know I disagree. I think it's more deadlifts for
- 1:32:53them. Oh, OK.
- 1:32:57And then this last workout, this one's wild.
- 1:33:02Part 1. All athletes echo bike again.
- 1:33:05So that's the second echo bike one legged squats, also known as
- 1:33:09pistols. So more squatting, handstand
- 1:33:11walking, more back biking, squats, handstand walk, fastest
- 1:33:1510 athletes then advance to Part 2 where there's five elimination
- 1:33:20rounds. Nice SO.
- 1:33:25They have to do. Last one walking so I'm like it.
- 1:33:31Right. I don't know how it's going to
- 1:33:32work. I I'm afraid this might be like
- 1:33:34a a 16 hour event on Sunday. How?
- 1:33:39Long it. How long is it right?
- 1:33:422 minutes. Ran 2 minute time cap ran
- 1:33:44correctly. I think it's freaking awesome.
- 1:33:47Yeah, but if. You trip one-on-one hand, same
- 1:33:51walk on one. Yeah, you're single leg squat.
- 1:33:53You're you're done. But I just like that you're
- 1:33:56going to have to Sprint your bike as hard as you can right in
- 1:33:59the pistols, right in the handstand, walk like like that's
- 1:34:03I mean, these are this is a fun workout.
- 1:34:08I wouldn't call it fitness, but it's a fun.
- 1:34:10Workout and there's a pure wedding in there.
- 1:34:12More ability based but but these are I like workouts like.
- 1:34:17These oh is it 24 and back? Yeah, where do you see Pirouette
- 1:34:23the? Very bottom.
- 1:34:24At the bottom it. Says 1 pirouette each 48 foot
- 1:34:28segment. So I don't know if it's like you
- 1:34:29finish and you do a pirouette, I have no idea.
- 1:34:33But it's probably 24 feet. This one could be, if it's
- 1:34:36close, this one could be pretty exciting because you're watching
- 1:34:40like, does somebody drop out? Like if you're, you know, if
- 1:34:43it's like if there's 10 athletes and it's 8, then there's six,
- 1:34:45then there's 4, then there's two.
- 1:34:48And like, if it came down to somebody having to, you know,
- 1:34:51win versus over the other person, like, it could get
- 1:34:53fairly interesting. So there's two handstand walks
- 1:34:58in the first round, right? Yeah.
- 1:35:02So 48 * 5 + 48 + 48. That's 336 feet of handstand.
- 1:35:10Walks. You got to add another 48 square
- 1:35:12another 48, because there's 96 the first time.
- 1:35:15Oh shit, yeah. Almost 400 feet.
- 1:35:19Yeah, that's a lot. I mean, it's fine.
- 1:35:25It's just like those those last handstand walks are going to be
- 1:35:29hilarious. Yeah, it is.
- 1:35:32It'll be a little brutal. That's the case though.
- 1:35:34Do you think the best handstand Walker just wins this event and
- 1:35:37the rest of the stuff doesn't matter?
- 1:35:39Not necessarily. Cause 400 feet is just is enough
- 1:35:43that like that just that handstand walk volume.
- 1:35:45Like even if you're a monster. I think if you make it to Part
- 1:35:492, I'm saying if you make it to Part 2, the I think it's just
- 1:35:53the best handstand Walker after that, especially with that
- 1:35:56pirouette. Do you think the waist will do
- 1:35:58anything? But you, everybody that made it
- 1:36:01to Part 2 was able to do them. OK, Does that You see what I'm
- 1:36:05saying? So and then it's an elimination
- 1:36:08after elimination after that and you're just keeping on keeping
- 1:36:11on keeping on handstand walking with the pirouette.
- 1:36:14I think whoever makes it a Part 2, the best handstand Walker out
- 1:36:18of that group wins. Steven.
- 1:36:23Yeah. I mean, 12 calories isn't going
- 1:36:25to take very long. I don't think you could get
- 1:36:27that, you know, I mean, I mean, you get winded up for a while,
- 1:36:31but I don't think it's going to be depending on how fast they
- 1:36:35go, right. We don't know how close these
- 1:36:37are. That'd be the worst though if
- 1:36:41there's like challenges and stuff and like that delays.
- 1:36:43And remember the Rogue duel? Oh yeah, no, if it's if it's
- 1:36:46like Rogue, it's going to be really bad.
- 1:36:48But if it's, I think if they can go quick about it, it'd be cool.
- 1:36:54And then the leaderboard, the women's leaderboard, I don't
- 1:37:03think other than this is like more of a trivia side.
- 1:37:10Only one woman, Maria Quintero, has been, I think the individual
- 1:37:14side at the Games in 2019 when she won Columbia.
- 1:37:21Where are all of them? Victoria campus isn't competing,
- 1:37:27Pinero is doing masters. And then who was the 3rd last
- 1:37:31year? I don't remember.
- 1:37:34Oh, Julia Cotto. So yeah.
- 1:37:39OK. So I mean, there's a handful
- 1:37:41that have been close to in the past, but it's definitely not a
- 1:37:46field of of names that, you know, on the men's side,
- 1:37:50Augustine, Rochelle May, who was just at the Mayhem Classic and
- 1:37:53finished like 18th Bruno Marines, Who else?
- 1:38:03Phile, Monsuza. Caiike.
- 1:38:06Taike cerveny we're seeing Italians there.
- 1:38:10Juan Ignacio Cerveny, the Second.
- 1:38:15Yeah. Martine, Alfonso.
- 1:38:16Fuentes, Pasa. Pedro Martins I think he was
- 1:38:22busted for drugs that were tainted and got A2 year ban.
- 1:38:27Renato Guimareri. You should be announcing this
- 1:38:32one, John. Guimarice.
- 1:38:34So again, it's a bunch of guys we don't know.
- 1:38:36Cali and Souza's there. Bruno Marin's Ben Gutierrez has
- 1:38:43always been close. I mean, it's probably gonna be
- 1:38:47fairly close. Hey, hey, where's where's
- 1:38:51Nicholas Badoon at? Badoon.
- 1:38:55There's Badoon here. Isn't he South American?
- 1:38:59I thought he was competing, but no, not in this one.
- 1:39:01He's in every other one. Dude, Nicholas, this this is
- 1:39:05this would. Have been one this would have
- 1:39:06been 1 Nicholas. Yeah, this this was one that was
- 1:39:10important. So he's not in the, he's not on
- 1:39:13the roster. Nicholas Badoon is officially
- 1:39:15this year's Dejuan Young. Like we're all rooting for you,
- 1:39:18buddy. We all, we all want you to make
- 1:39:20it, man. Yeah.
- 1:39:22Dejuan. Dejuan qualified for the Far
- 1:39:24East throwdown. So go Dejuan.
- 1:39:28Yeah, good stuff. So yeah, we, you know, we don't
- 1:39:30have any rankings for you, but that's because we, we'll just be
- 1:39:33making up stuff, but. We're not really analysts.
- 1:39:35We can't do that. No, we don't know what we're
- 1:39:38talking about. We're just here to play little
- 1:39:41games. Just talk.
- 1:39:42About except of course, for John.
- 1:39:43John's a the senior analyst. Just let my let my actions speak
- 1:39:49for themselves. Did that even mean anything?
- 1:39:57Yeah, I meant it from the heart. Yeah.
- 1:40:00But it didn't mean anything. Fico is right, Nico is going to
- 1:40:05Spain for the wildland fest with 79 other guys.
- 1:40:09Do they get 2 or one? 2 So everybody gets 2 except for
- 1:40:14Asia and Africa. And annuals the guy to beat.
- 1:40:19Next. Next week.
- 1:40:21Yeah, I I'm just assuming Romans got one, but I'm saying annual
- 1:40:25would be the guy. We assumed Alexis did too.
- 1:40:28That's a good point. Yeah, yeah, you're, yeah, that's
- 1:40:32a good point. Traveling is never easy.
- 1:40:36All right, I think it's time to leave.
- 1:40:38Leslie is telling John to go feed their baby.
- 1:40:41She's she's sleeping. Keeping it real.
- 1:40:45Wants to know what happens if you say, say, Kale Lehman in the
- 1:40:48mirror three times. Nothing shows up.
- 1:41:01On that note. I apologize to absolutely
- 1:41:05nobody.
