- 1:28Like, what in the world?
- 1:31Why wouldn't you?
- 1:33This is such a great world to live
- 1:35in.
- 1:36Honestly.
- 1:40I appreciate living in America by spending
- 1:43at least five minutes a day just
- 1:44discussing who is the king of Yacht Rock.
- 1:48And so we asked Vicki.
- 1:50Vicki's response was Steely Dan.
- 1:54Which is legit.
- 1:55Corey came in legit.
- 1:57He was all on board.
- 1:59And then I said,
- 2:00the only thing I can picture about Yacht
- 2:02Rock is Michael McDonald.
- 2:03Michael McDonald.
- 2:04Gosh darn, man.
- 2:07And he's there.
- 2:08He's everywhere.
- 2:10that's the discussion we were having like
- 2:12you can't you can't there's not six yacht
- 2:14rocks on like you can pick six yacht
- 2:16rock songs off a playlist on spotify and
- 2:18i'll bet michael mcdonald's on four of
- 2:20them because we were talking like he has
- 2:23his own stuff he has the doobie brothers
- 2:26he appeared on christopher cross's album
- 2:29was also on um oh what is his
- 2:33the dude's name top gun soundtrack kenny
- 2:36loggins kenny loggins did yacht rock for a
- 2:38minute he's on kenny loggins albums like
- 2:40the dude is everywhere yeah
- 2:50The funny thing is, one, Fergie,
- 2:53I've not heard John Sakata in a long
- 2:55time,
- 2:56but one of the favorite moments of my
- 2:58life is when John Sakata was singing at
- 3:00the World Cup and fell through the stage
- 3:03and continued to sing.
- 3:06Didn't miss a beat.
- 3:07He didn't miss a beat.
- 3:09His torso is the only thing you can
- 3:11see, and he just kept on singing.
- 3:15Oh, my Lord.
- 3:17Oh, one of my favorite moments ever.
- 3:20I trained Olive.
- 3:21I prefer trailer park rock.
- 3:23Listen, like, I love all kinds of music.
- 3:28Sure.
- 3:28Seriously, like,
- 3:29if you went to my Spotify,
- 3:31the algorithm just goes, I give up.
- 3:34Yeah.
- 3:36But, you know,
- 3:37occasionally I like a good yacht rock
- 3:39tune.
- 3:40I love Christopher Cross.
- 3:42My wife's wedding song and I is sailing,
- 3:45so...
- 3:47There it is.
- 3:49I saw something the other day.
- 3:50So he wrote that after one of his
- 3:51friends took him sailing and he fell in
- 3:54love with sailing, right?
- 3:56So I said,
- 3:57imagine if Christopher Cross's friend had
- 3:58took him bowling instead.
- 4:06Bowling, take me away to where I'm going.
- 4:12Roll the ball.
- 4:17Get a strike.
- 4:18Get a strike.
- 4:21Just saying.
- 4:23That song could have been way different is
- 4:24what they're getting at.
- 4:27Daniel Arnson got his swag.
- 4:29That's what we're talking about.
- 4:31Let's go.
- 4:33So Daniel Arnson and Meg got their shirts
- 4:35today.
- 4:36That's awesome.
- 4:39two things from this one I get an
- 4:42email every morning from a guy named
- 4:44Daniel Anderson it is a spam email it's
- 4:47in my work email address Daniel Anderson
- 4:50it is so close to Daniel Arnson every
- 4:52time I see it I'm like what crazy
- 4:56idea is coming from Daniel Arnson like why
- 4:58do I have to be reminded every morning
- 5:00at eight ten a.m of Daniel Arnson by
- 5:04Daniel Anderson
- 5:06And why is he giving me...
- 5:08Why does he have my email address,
- 5:10for one?
- 5:10And why is he...
- 5:11Every time I just see it out of
- 5:12the corner of my eye, I'm like,
- 5:14how did Daniel Arnson get in here?
- 5:15And it surprised me every morning.
- 5:18Yeah, it would shock me as well.
- 5:22And the other thing...
- 5:25I checked the reports on the deliveries.
- 5:28You know how you talked about you and
- 5:29your friend ordering the same thing from
- 5:31the same store on the same day,
- 5:33and yet the deliveries were a week apart?
- 5:36Yeah, more or less.
- 5:38Yeah,
- 5:39like there is no rhyme or reason as
- 5:41to what got delivered where and when from
- 5:44the U.S.
- 5:44Postal Service.
- 5:46I still haven't gotten the shirt that
- 5:49Shanna mailed me.
- 5:50Well,
- 5:51Shanna hasn't got the shirt I sent her
- 5:54a week ago.
- 5:55So there will be some time-space continuum
- 5:58between here and Oregon that all mail has
- 6:02to go through.
- 6:04Before I like to think I like to
- 6:05think of the fact that or my imaginary
- 6:08scenario I made of my head where somebody
- 6:10is like passing the stuff from one and
- 6:13like the shirts are crossing each other.
- 6:16Some sort of timeline.
- 6:18Somebody's like, Oh,
- 6:18is that one going to Shanna Buntz?
- 6:20Yeah.
- 6:20Okay, this one's from Shanna Buntz.
- 6:21Cool.
- 6:21Let's go just go ahead and trade and
- 6:22we'll get them going in the right
- 6:23direction.
- 6:25yeah it's weird it's really weird but i'm
- 6:28glad that people are getting their shirts
- 6:30and their stickers hopefully they have not
- 6:32made them confetti in their jeep like cory
- 6:35did i did yeah stickers i got most
- 6:43of them picked up so there's that uh
- 6:44jeff j birch uh it's lost in space
- 6:46and only like three of us even get
- 6:48that reference it's on the pony express
- 6:54I don't know why they call it Express.
- 6:56If it's on a pony,
- 6:57it's not coming real fast.
- 6:58There's not really anything.
- 6:59Yeah, Shanna's is on the pony.
- 7:00Meg's was on a stagecoach.
- 7:04Danger, Will Robinson.
- 7:05Danger.
- 7:06See, someone got it.
- 7:07Someone got it.
- 7:12So last night I went to mail another
- 7:14batch of shirts out.
- 7:16Had them all in a stack.
- 7:17Get to the post office.
- 7:19Throw them in the mail bin.
- 7:22then we went up to the puppy park
- 7:24to take my dog let him run and
- 7:27when we get up to the puppy park
- 7:28we find one t-shirt bag had slid to
- 7:31the back seat oh who's that like son

- 7:43southbound direction so now i have to loop

- 12:40Andrew Sten,
- 12:42we're just always fighting now.
- 12:43Terrible writing and found.
- 12:44The writing was good.
- 12:45The lead actress sucked as an actor.
- 12:49The rest of the cast was pretty good.
- 12:51She was.
- 12:54She I had to get past it.
- 12:56I had like mentally get past that because
- 12:59the storylines were pretty good.
- 13:05So, yeah, and Trent agrees with me.
- 13:08Oh, yeah, that was a great show.
- 13:12Do we want to talk about some CrossFit?
- 13:13Are we going to dive into any of
- 13:15that?
- 13:16Is there anything to talk about?
- 13:17Did anything happen between yesterday and

- 13:43especially when it comes to video and
- 13:45stuff,
- 13:45because they are super serious about it.
- 13:48Better have your scales ready.
- 13:50And your video camera and your phone wiped
- 13:54of all memory stuff because it's going to
- 13:57take you forty five minutes to document

- 16:24I know two people or three people,
- 16:26actually four people that do really like
- 16:28personally, but yeah.
- 16:31And we sponsor an athlete in the grid
- 16:33league.
- 16:34Yeah, no, I'd love, I saw Lauren and,
- 16:36uh,
- 16:38At Monster Games,
- 16:39one of my favorite people to run across.
- 16:41She's one of the four people that I
- 16:42know.
- 16:42It's like her, John Young, my boy Taylor,
- 16:45and Jessica.
- 16:52So she's going to make that debut as
- 16:54well.
- 17:00I want to talk a little bit about
- 17:03the Mayhem video today.
- 17:06I saw that it was out.
- 17:07I need to check it out.
- 17:08I was watching Lydia this morning on
- 17:10Savant.
- 17:10Yeah,
- 17:14I skipped the Lydia interview and went
- 17:16with Mayhem and TTT,
- 17:18which I just want to touch on a
- 17:19few things from those.
- 17:21I got sent some stuff last night about
- 17:23Mayhem and some Reddit stuff about the
- 17:26Empire collapsing.
- 17:28And I chalked it up as...
- 17:30This is Reddit.
- 17:31This is the cesspool of social media.
- 17:35It is what it is.
- 17:39I want to hear from the horse's mouth
- 17:40if all this is truly happening.
- 17:43I can't go on Reddit because it gives
- 17:45me a headache.
- 17:47and i get irrationally angry after about
- 17:50four or five posts i'm like y'all are
- 17:51these people are insane absolutely insane
- 17:55and then dense posted a clip of angelo
- 17:59saying he refused to do an interview with
- 18:00bella so that has added to the speculation
- 18:04that the empire is collapsing and so
- 18:07ridiculous like the man's got his own
- 18:10reasons for doing something that doesn't
- 18:12mean that the empire is collapsing like
- 18:14just because they both work there that's
- 18:16so stupid
- 18:17Well, and honestly,
- 18:18I don't know the context around it all.
- 18:20Like, was he joking?
- 18:21Was it like,
- 18:24I don't know what they're cause if you
- 18:27watch the mayhem podcast, they,
- 18:30they dog on each other all the time.
- 18:34It was a short clip.
- 18:35I don't know what else happened before
- 18:37that or after that.
- 18:39i so it's on the uh cf network
- 18:43it's behind the scenes once the one's
- 18:46behind the scenes like he seemed pretty
- 18:48serious at the time because he told one
- 18:50of the girls on his team like hey
- 18:51they're doing an interview you can go over
- 18:53there i'm not going to talk to her
- 18:54so okay whatever whatever the rest of it
- 18:59is like the man's got his reasons
- 19:04That's such a thin straw to grasp at
- 19:10because, oh, well,
- 19:11Angelo didn't want to talk to Bella.
- 19:12They're reporting that there's a mass
- 19:14exodus of coaches and athletes.
- 19:18They just did a big post about it.
- 19:22I haven't seen any evidence,
- 19:23and I watch a lot of shit.
- 19:26Haley left.
- 19:27Okay.
- 19:28Yeah, okay.
- 19:31That's not the first time.
- 19:34FYI.
- 19:34Um, so anyway,
- 19:34I was tuning in because I wanted to
- 19:36know if Angela was going to talk about
- 19:39the clip,
- 19:40if they were going to address the Reddit
- 19:43stuff and they didn't,
- 19:44they didn't do any of that stuff.
- 19:47Um,
- 19:50But a couple things I did learn from
- 19:52the interview or the podcast was that the
- 19:56San Jose Sharks gave Sharks jerseys with
- 19:59names on it to all the podium winners.
- 20:01Oh, that's cool.
- 20:04I thought that was a really cool gift
- 20:06to give to the podium winners.
- 20:08We'll talk about it.
- 20:12I have a couple questions.
- 20:13The Service Cup begins soon.
- 20:15Yep.
- 20:17And the live finale will be at Mayhem
- 20:18again.
- 20:20cool and our very own carolyn privo won
- 20:23that last year for the teachers um and
- 20:28she is still an active educator so hey
- 20:34uh jay birch i have one second i
- 20:36gotta looks like might be an important
- 20:38call i'm gonna take okay no problem uh
- 20:40jay birch i don't i have not seen
- 20:42anything about um
- 20:45Austin leaving.
- 20:46So, uh,
- 20:48if he did it's news to me,
- 20:50and that is not even what was mentioned
- 20:53in the rumors on Reddit.
- 20:57So Ortega there's just a,
- 21:03there's a Reddit sub group talking about
- 21:06the decline of mayhem and the crumble of
- 21:09the empire.
- 21:13But I took it with a grain of
- 21:14salt because it was Reddit.
- 21:18So a question I have for everybody is,
- 21:22during the Mayhem podcast...
- 21:27Rich made the statement that they
- 21:29shouldn't give out medals anymore at the
- 21:30CrossFit Games.
- 21:31They should give out rings like sports
- 21:35champions get, like a Super Bowl ring,
- 21:37World Series ring, things like that,
- 21:41that he doesn't really care for medals.
- 21:42He thinks it'd be cooler to have a
- 21:44ring.
- 21:46And I just wanted to put it out
- 21:46to you guys.
- 21:47What do you think?
- 21:49Medal or ring?
- 21:50Which would you rather have if you won
- 21:53the CrossFit Games?
- 21:57And the other thing I wanted to put
- 21:59up,
- 22:00and it was just a thought that crossed
- 22:02my mind watching the Mayhem podcast is,
- 22:06do we need more Guy Mejeros to market
- 22:10the sport?
- 22:14And this is what I mean by it.
- 22:18Do we need more Guy Mejeros to market
- 22:23the sport?
- 22:24And I say that because
- 22:27he is beautiful to watch moving sure like
- 22:34if i'm not a crossfitter and i see
- 22:36that man on tv doing a snatch doing
- 22:43a muscle up doing whatever it i'm gonna
- 22:47be like who is that and what the
- 22:50hell are they doing he definitely makes it
- 22:53looks easy i mean
- 22:55Every single snatch of the snatch ladder
- 22:57looked exactly like the one before it.
- 22:59And every one of the snatches or clean
- 23:03and jerks looks the same.
- 23:05Like his movement and his athleticism in
- 23:09short bursts is beautiful to watch.
- 23:14Yeah.
- 23:17I would have a,
- 23:17I don't see a problem with it,
- 23:19but I don't, I'm just not a fan.
- 23:24Well, we're nerds.
- 23:25This isn't for me.
- 23:26This isn't for me and you.
- 23:27This isn't for Vicky.
- 23:28This isn't for the people in the chat.
- 23:30It's for people...
- 23:33It's for people who do not watch the
- 23:35sport and catch a glimpse and want to
- 23:38know more.
- 23:40Yeah, so you're going to...
- 23:44In my humble opinion, at that point,
- 23:46you're going to turn him into Danny
- 23:47Spiegel.
- 23:49Because...
- 23:50Danny Spiegel didn't look that good moving
- 23:52like it.
- 23:53She looks that good moving depending on
- 23:54who you are.
- 23:56Yeah, she does.
- 23:57But you're talking about like more
- 23:59attraction and I'm talking about it still
- 24:03becomes superficial at that point because
- 24:05look at how good this dude moves.
- 24:06Look at how good this chick looks while
- 24:08moving.
- 24:09Okay.
- 24:11Counter argument.
- 24:12How many times did Danny Spiegel finish
- 24:14top ten at the games?
- 24:17Nothing as far as I can tell.
- 24:18How many times has Guy finished top ten
- 24:20at the games?
- 24:21Was that twice?
- 24:22Yeah, at least twice.
- 24:23Maybe three times.
- 24:25Yeah, I'd have to look.
- 24:26Vicky can tell us.
- 24:29No clue.
- 24:30No clue.
- 24:31I understand that,
- 24:32but the average person doesn't know that
- 24:33either.
- 24:34The average person is going to see this
- 24:35good-looking kid moving really well.
- 24:39Just like if they had marketed Danny like
- 24:40that,
- 24:41they'd have seen this good-looking kid
- 24:42who, to their eyes,
- 24:44probably moves pretty well.
- 24:45They don't know she's not squatting a
- 24:46parallel.
- 24:48But Danny's never in the top heat with
- 24:50the top athletes.
- 24:51Guy is.
- 24:54And we dog on Guy because he can't
- 24:55run.
- 24:56Right?
- 24:57Because we're CrossFit nerds.
- 24:59Because he can't run long.
- 25:00He's rounded enough.
- 25:02Yeah.
- 25:02Right?
- 25:03He can run.
- 25:03He just can't run long.
- 25:05Right.
- 25:05He has no endurance.
- 25:07Whatever you want to say.
- 25:08He has one big fast twitch muscle.
- 25:10Watching him sprint,
- 25:11he looked like a track star.
- 25:13A hundred percent.
- 25:14And got beat by Ricky.
- 25:17Okay,
- 25:17but second place in the world for a
- 25:21CrossFitter.
- 25:22Still the first loser.
- 25:25I'm with Lito.
- 25:26More Harry Lightfoot.
- 25:28You guys are so tainted by the narrative
- 25:32that's out there.
- 25:33Here's why.
- 25:36I'm with Lito.
- 25:37More Harry Lightfoot.
- 25:38Harry is way more likable.
- 25:41Harry is way more...
- 25:43community oriented did he make the games
- 25:46this year no he did not but he
- 25:48is a coach first and he'll be the
- 25:50first one to tell you that like him
- 25:52making the games last year was a side
- 25:54quest for all intents and purposes did he
- 25:55want to sure absolutely do you want to
- 25:57this year absolutely but he is way more
- 26:00invested in the actual community and
- 26:01making people better whereas gee two years
- 26:05ago three years ago was begging people to
- 26:07send him a free bike
- 26:12You guys won't let anything die in this
- 26:14spirit.
- 26:16The guy says one thing.
- 26:18English isn't even his first language,
- 26:20and we're dogging him about everything.
- 26:22Like, I am so against the Gee hate.
- 26:27So against it.
- 26:29I don't hate him.
- 26:30Great, great athlete.
- 26:34Sure.
- 26:35He won events individually for the world
- 26:38team.
- 26:39Mm-hmm.
- 26:41Because most of them are real quick.
- 26:43Harry Lightfoot's made the games one time.
- 26:45Sure.
- 26:47In what?
- 26:48Eighteenth?
- 26:49Nineteenth?
- 26:52Who's more likable?
- 26:54I like Guy.
- 26:56I like Guy.
- 26:57When he was on the Dave Castro interview,
- 26:59I thought he was very likable.
- 27:02Very engaging.
- 27:04And how many green lizards do you see
- 27:06in the comments every time Guy shows up
- 27:08on the screen?
- 27:09I will give you that.
- 27:10The Brazilian fans love their people.
- 27:13that's not just for him that's for any
- 27:15of the any of the brazilians that that
- 27:16that show up they are there looking for
- 27:19them and that's that's just that's the
- 27:21culture thing because they show up for the
- 27:23world cup they show up for the copa
- 27:25america they show up for any tournament
- 27:27their soccer tournament that brazil is
- 27:28playing in if you watch brazilians doing
- 27:32uh mma like you go look at those
- 27:35kind of fights they are there in whatever
- 27:37comment section like they show up for
- 27:39their people so
- 27:42Yeah, I agree with you on that.
- 27:44Absolutely.
- 27:46Jody, I don't hate him,
- 27:47but he hasn't done anything to endear
- 27:49himself to me.
- 27:51OK,
- 27:52but like every time he's on the floor,
- 27:55I want to watch because nobody moves as
- 27:58well as he does.
- 28:00Like everybody talks about Hobart being
- 28:02like the perfect mover.
- 28:05Guy is not far behind.
- 28:07If he is behind,
- 28:09like I would put them as the two
- 28:12best movers in the sport.
- 28:16At AI,
- 28:16I was at Waterpalooza and I was getting
- 28:18out of a porta potty and he was
- 28:19going in like, dude, I have to poop.
- 28:21Funny moment with him.
- 28:26English is not his first language, right?
- 28:29And we have a bias as Americans that
- 28:32we want to endear ourselves to our home
- 28:36athletes.
- 28:40So I don't know.
- 28:44We had a couple ring votes too.
- 28:45We had a couple medal votes for the
- 28:48championship when you were on your call.
- 28:51Rich said on his podcast,
- 28:52he'd rather have a championship ring than
- 28:54a championship medal.
- 28:56yeah i could i could see that um
- 28:58i i would like to present a third
- 29:00option and that would be the belt yeah
- 29:05dude i just i like the idea of
- 29:07the belt take it from wrestling well if
- 29:09it's a wrestling about i'm for it if
- 29:11it's the stupid leather weight belt that
- 29:14doesn't do anything for me no like a
- 29:16like a real like hold it up hey
- 29:20come take this championship belt from me
- 29:22type deal
- 29:24I think that's a great idea.
- 29:26You get to keep it,
- 29:28but going into the next year, like, hey,
- 29:31James has got the belt.
- 29:32Who's going to take the belt from him?
- 29:35I don't hate the belt idea if it's
- 29:37a cool championship belt.
- 29:42My wife's in an all-day meeting, FYI,
- 29:45just in case.
- 29:47She just texted me and said,
- 29:49love all-day meetings.
- 29:52yeah that's the best american
- 29:54exceptionalism yeah i i just think that
- 30:00like gee gets a really bad rap yeah
- 30:04he has top ten finishes he is relevant
- 30:10I would say he wasn't relevant.
- 30:12He's definitely relevant.
- 30:13I mean, he's going to win events.
- 30:14There's stuff that we know he's going to
- 30:16take top one or two on.
- 30:17Before the game started,
- 30:18everybody knew the snatch event is his to
- 30:21lose.
- 30:22The only way he's losing it if he
- 30:23makes a mistake,
- 30:24and it better be a big mistake.
- 30:27The sprint,
- 30:27everybody was going back and forth.
- 30:29It's going to either be him or Ricky.
- 30:30Sure enough, Ricky wins.
- 30:32He's hot on his heels the entire time,
- 30:34a hundred percent.
- 30:36Well,
- 30:36I want to say this is how much
- 30:38the Gee slander has been around is when
- 30:42the sprint was announced,
- 30:43everybody was like, Ricky wins,
- 30:45no competition, no question, blah, blah,
- 30:47blah, blah.
- 30:50You knew Gee was going to give him
- 30:51a run.
- 30:52Yeah, that was fun to watch.
- 30:54That was great to watch.
- 30:56That's another thing they said on the
- 30:57Mayhem podcast was that
- 31:01The activities on Barack Obama were so
- 31:03much fun and CrossFit needs to lean more
- 31:06into that.
- 31:07Can we talk about the fact that they
- 31:09never said Boulevard at the end of it?
- 31:10They just kept saying,
- 31:12we're running on Barack Obama.
- 31:13We're pushing above on Barack Obama.
- 31:15I was like, hey, man,
- 31:16can we leave Barack alone?
- 31:18Like,
- 31:19let's just talk about the street instead.
- 31:21That's what I'd say.
- 31:22Every time they said that, like,
- 31:23we're doing this on Barack Obama.
- 31:25My twelve year old brain is like picturing
- 31:26a giant Barack Obama and them doing stuff
- 31:28on top of him.
- 31:30Sorry, I know it's a non sequitur,
- 31:31but that's just where my head that.
- 31:34And I will admit, like,
- 31:35all the stuff I went out and watched
- 31:37on the street,
- 31:39we'll just say on the street,
- 31:41was really fun to watch.
- 31:43Yeah.
- 31:45i liked it i did the sprint especially
- 31:47i didn't get to see the uh i
- 31:49only saw one ending of the the big
- 31:51bob push but the uh the sprint was
- 31:55super fun to watch even though and look
- 31:58it was literally just a bunch of dudes
- 32:01running in one direction going around the
- 32:04the uh the pylons for lack of a
- 32:07better word running the other direction
- 32:09going back around the pylons and then
- 32:11coming across the finish line and that was
- 32:12still fun to watch i enjoyed the out
- 32:14of that
- 32:15Well, the running squat clean workout,
- 32:19I watched from the street.
- 32:21I watched the run part of it.
- 32:22I bet that was good.
- 32:26And it was so fun to watch.
- 32:28Because out on the street,
- 32:30the fans are right there.
- 32:33In the arena,
- 32:35you were pretty far off the floor.
- 32:38And even the finish line in the past
- 32:40has been right at
- 32:42the stands and this year there was a
- 32:44big gap between, well, you,
- 32:47there were four private boxes.
- 32:49If you had a private box,
- 32:50you were by the finish line, but the,
- 32:53but the normal fans were back off quite
- 32:55a ways.
- 32:56So when you were out on the street,
- 32:57the fans were right there.
- 33:00Yeah, when they,
- 33:02the false start that wasn't a false start.
- 33:05I mean,
- 33:06you could reach out and touch them from
- 33:07right there.
- 33:08Like somebody could have grabbed whoever
- 33:10that was on the end,
- 33:10like grab the hold of them and not
- 33:12let him take off if they wanted to.
- 33:13Like that's, that's cool.
- 33:15I like that a whole lot because it
- 33:17feels like you're right there on top of
- 33:19them.
- 33:20And even as the couple of events I've
- 33:22done where you're doing stuff and the
- 33:25crowd is right there behind you.
- 33:28That's a cool feeling as a competitor
- 33:30because it's like, man,
- 33:31these people are right here.
- 33:32You can feed off the energy one way
- 33:33or the other.
- 33:34I'm a big fan of that.
- 33:36Can we talk about false starts?
- 33:38Let's be real here.
- 33:40Please do.
- 33:41I don't know if there's a CrossFit event
- 33:43that doesn't have a false start.
- 33:47Every single event,
- 33:48someone is leaning forward before the
- 33:51beep.
- 33:53Trying to anticipate it, man.
- 33:54Trying to get that whole shot.
- 34:00It is something that as a former swimmer,
- 34:05like false starts are – and when they
- 34:09went to one false start and then the
- 34:12field is – anybody from the field can
- 34:14be disqualified on the second one.
- 34:17in track and swimming and all of that
- 34:19stuff,
- 34:20like it just annoys the shit out of
- 34:23me when I see someone leaning forward at
- 34:27the beginning of an event and the,
- 34:29the sprint just made it even worse.
- 34:31Like it was way worse.
- 34:33That wasn't a lean.
- 34:34That was like two steps.
- 34:36That was everybody doing their best
- 34:37Michael Jackson impression.
- 34:39Just with the,
- 34:43that lean forward and get that,
- 34:44that whole body weight thing going on.
- 34:46Uh, which honestly,
- 34:49if you're trying to do a sprint is
- 34:51probably not the best position to put
- 34:52yourself in.
- 34:53Just let me keep leaning forward, forward,
- 34:55forward, forward.
- 34:55Cause that's going to throw your weight
- 34:56balance off completely from trying to
- 34:58start off and get a hard sprint start.
- 35:00Yeah.
- 35:01That's the best Mark Phillips.
- 35:03So when they lean to get that three,
- 35:05one thousandths of a second,
- 35:07and then they jog to the first implement.
- 35:09Yeah, a hundred percent.
- 35:11Hey, I'm guilty of it.
- 35:12I'll tell you that right now.
- 35:14You'll see, like, we stay on that start,
- 35:15Matt, and you hear him in ten seconds.
- 35:17And everybody, like,
- 35:20I like seeing it when I'm doing,
- 35:22we're doing interval with the class I
- 35:24coached this morning,
- 35:25which we only had one person at five,
- 35:26one person at six.
- 35:27But when you're doing interval work and
- 35:30there's a rest period and I'm coaching the
- 35:32class,
- 35:34I love to watch around and everybody's,
- 35:38they got two minutes of rest.
- 35:39Everybody's breathing and take a sip of
- 35:41their water and whatnot.
- 35:42And you're like, one minute.
- 35:44And everybody all of a sudden,
- 35:45they perk up.
- 35:47And in thirty seconds,
- 35:48because I'm the world's best alarm clock,
- 35:50I let everybody know, like,
- 35:51if you're in my class,
- 35:52you're going to have plenty of forward
- 35:53motion,
- 35:54forward warning before the actual next
- 35:57thing starts.
- 35:58Thirty seconds,
- 35:59and then everybody tenses up.
- 36:01And at ten seconds,
- 36:02everybody just leans in.
- 36:03Whatever they were doing is...
- 36:05And it's the same thing if you're on
- 36:06the floor, right?
- 36:08And they bring us all out there,
- 36:10you meet your judge, you know, Hey,
- 36:11let's blah, blah, blah, whatever.
- 36:13Okay, cool.
- 36:13This is what I'm doing.
- 36:14You know, introduce yourself,
- 36:15all that good stuff.
- 36:17And everybody's loose.
- 36:17And as soon as they say, ten seconds,
- 36:19everybody's on that start mat.
- 36:20And it doesn't matter what the first thing
- 36:22is, what the first implement is.
- 36:24Everybody's leaning it.
- 36:26Or they're leaning over to grab the bar.
- 36:30I don't do that.
- 36:30That's so stupid.
- 36:32I think that's so stupid.
- 36:33Like I'm not touching it.
- 36:34I'm not touching it.
- 36:35Like your hands are like right here.
- 36:36Yeah.
- 36:37I'm not touching it.
- 36:38I'm not touching it right here.
- 36:39All right, dude, stand up.
- 36:41Come on.
- 36:42Stand up.
- 36:43That extra like frigging more to say that
- 36:45extra three thousands of a second is
- 36:47probably not going to make you win this
- 36:49thing.
- 36:49Like, Oh, I, I did it every time,
- 36:51man.
- 36:52I started to lean down to the bar.
- 36:55That's the only thing I was,
- 36:57if we got,
- 36:57if I got to run to,
- 36:58to a thing,
- 36:59like to the wall or to a billboard
- 37:01or rings, whatever the case may be.
- 37:03Yeah.
- 37:04I'm leaning forward.
- 37:04But if I just got to go to
- 37:05the barbell to stand in front of me,
- 37:07I'm not that guy.
- 37:08I'll be like, no, three, two, one, go.
- 37:10I'll reach down and grab it.
- 37:11It'll be okay.
- 37:11Well,
- 37:12you don't have as far to go as
- 37:15I do.
- 37:16Facts, facts.
- 37:18Yeah.
- 37:20Um,
- 37:22I listened, Vicky had sent me a timestamp,
- 37:25but TTT talked about the Masters games.
- 37:29And the podcast is about the games,
- 37:33and there's a segment that's about the
- 37:34Masters games.
- 37:36And a lot of the things that were
- 37:38being said by both Perrin and Adam were
- 37:42what Carolyn and Jamie talked about
- 37:48exactly.
- 37:48That it felt like a semifinal event,
- 37:50not a games event.
- 37:56But they did make this statement that it
- 37:58used to be that people looked at the
- 38:01Masters as a way to get a quick
- 38:02podium,
- 38:04and they thought it was a cakewalk once
- 38:05they went from elite individual to the
- 38:09Masters, and it's not that anymore.
- 38:11There's no cakewalk in the Masters.
- 38:14They were talking about not just like the
- 38:16Noahs and the Travises and the Carolins.
- 38:18They were talking about the entire Masters
- 38:22division has upped its game to a place
- 38:25where there are no cakewalks in the
- 38:28Masters division.
- 38:29And so I loved that they were loving
- 38:31on them like that.
- 38:33Yeah,
- 38:37I would be the first one to tell
- 38:38you it's not easy to do.
- 38:41just to make it to an in-person semifinal,
- 38:43right?
- 38:43Finish high enough in between the open and
- 38:46quarterfinals to make it to, you know,
- 38:49get an invite to an in-person semifinals
- 38:50is not easy to do.
- 38:52You have to work your ass off.
- 38:55And then you get there, I'm telling you,
- 38:56dude,
- 38:59I hate to use legends as an example,
- 39:01not the semifinal,
- 39:02but the last legends that I did in
- 39:04twenty five.
- 39:05First time my wife ever got to see
- 39:06me really compete in person.
- 39:09And like before we left, she was like,
- 39:11get on that podium.
- 39:12And I was like, hmm.
- 39:14yeah probably not we're gonna give
- 39:17everything that we got i said but and
- 39:20it took uh until about the middle of
- 39:22the second day and then she didn't even
- 39:24really talk about it until we were at
- 39:25dinner on sunday night and she was like
- 39:29she said i know how hard you work
- 39:31like i know the sacrifices that you make
- 39:32all the things that you do she said
- 39:33but it never dawned on me that everybody
- 39:37else does too
- 39:39and like everybody's fast everybody's
- 39:41doing all these things and whatnot i'm
- 39:43like yeah dude it's like that throughout
- 39:44the whole masters community that i've seen
- 39:47go watch any heat any of them doesn't
- 39:49matter first heat last heat whatever
- 39:51whoever whoever's in it and it doesn't
- 39:53matter what age group there are some
- 39:56impressive things going on out there super
- 40:01impressive can you pull up amanda's
- 40:03comment vicky please
- 40:07My favorite thing is when someone says,
- 40:08I can't wait till I get into masters.
- 40:11LOL.
- 40:12Yo, it's still so, so hard.
- 40:15That's what she said.
- 40:16And it's getting harder.
- 40:22Yeah, that is.
- 40:24Yeah.
- 40:24Give me Martin Phillips right there,
- 40:26please.
- 40:28There seems to be a highly capable cohort
- 40:31moving its way up through the age group.
- 40:32Seems like fifty five and down are way
- 40:33more capable than those that came before
- 40:35him.
- 40:36Everybody can do all of the things.
- 40:40Everybody can.
- 40:42It's not like it was in years past
- 40:44where you could, well,
- 40:45I can walk on my hands and these
- 40:47guys can't.
- 40:47Well, no,
- 40:47everybody can walk on their hands now.
- 40:49And that's the correlation that Perrin and
- 40:51Adam were making,
- 40:53that we are treating them like they can't
- 40:57do all the things.
- 41:00Yep.
- 41:02And that's a problem.
- 41:03Like the people running the masters
- 41:06competitions are treating the people like
- 41:08they can't do those things now.
- 41:10And they can,
- 41:11they have advanced in their fitness to a
- 41:14point where they can do the hard things.
- 41:17Yeah.
- 41:18And do them well.
- 41:21Uh, Daniel Arnson,
- 41:22me getting into masters doesn't matter.
- 41:24Noah, Dan Bailey, Scott Pancheck,
- 41:26and so many others are in my division.
- 41:28noah dan bailey scott panchick travis sam
- 41:32dancer travis mayor marquand jones bro
- 41:36marquand is an animal marquand beat travis
- 41:40man i watched that dude in person at
- 41:44uh in birmingham and he is an absolute
- 41:46beast it's ridiculous uh vera says it's
- 41:50hard imagining when you're thirty eight
- 41:51how you will feel when you are fifty
- 41:53you won't be in fifty to fifty four
- 41:55age group and feel like you did when
- 41:56you're thirty eight
- 41:59Facts.
- 42:00Well, it depends.
- 42:02Yes and no.
- 42:03It depends on what your training age is
- 42:04for one, right?
- 42:06If you've been,
- 42:07if you've been in it since you were
- 42:08twenty six, if you're Scott Pancheck,
- 42:10yeah, one hundred percent.
- 42:11You not feel like you did when you
- 42:12were twenty six.
- 42:12You probably feel like you lost a couple
- 42:14of steps even though you are still out
- 42:15there smashing it.
- 42:16Same thing for Travis.
- 42:17Same thing for Noah.
- 42:19All of those guys,
- 42:20because they've been doing this shit for
- 42:23basically twenty years at this point,
- 42:25right?
- 42:27Other people.
- 42:30Myself being one of them,
- 42:32this is my eighth year or going into
- 42:34my ninth year of just doing CrossFit,
- 42:36period,
- 42:36much less being able to compete at a
- 42:37high level.
- 42:40The rare time, like right now,
- 42:42when I'm getting over actually being
- 42:44injured is the first time it's ever
- 42:45actually happened to me because I just
- 42:48don't have that many hours racked up in
- 42:52it.
- 42:54I can bounce back a little bit better
- 42:55because it's not a nagging something
- 42:57that's been going on for God only knows
- 42:58how long.
- 42:59It's a different type relationship at this
- 43:01point.
- 43:01Yeah,
- 43:04but it was interesting to get the
- 43:07confirmation that they saw the same things
- 43:10our girls saw.
- 43:11Yeah, I like that.
- 43:12And the fact that they're also putting it
- 43:15out there so that hopefully the powers
- 43:19that be can see that kind of stuff
- 43:20and understand that.
- 43:22I've also seen evidence of, um,
- 43:24Becca Voigt is responding to people who
- 43:27have DM'd her with,
- 43:30and you can tell that she's read what
- 43:32they sent.
- 43:33Yeah.
- 43:34It's not just a standard.
- 43:35Right.
- 43:37Um,
- 43:38so that's awesome because they need to be
- 43:42heard.
- 43:43A hundred percent.
- 43:45And I have confirmation she listened to
- 43:47our podcast on Sunday.
- 43:51Awesome.
- 43:52So she heard right now, Jamie.
- 43:54Becca,
- 43:54if you're listening to us right now,
- 43:57we love you.
- 43:58Thank you.
- 43:58Appreciate you.
- 44:00And again, if people don't know,
- 44:01when I was with morning talk,
- 44:03Becca was my analyst.
- 44:05I brought her on the show to be
- 44:06my, so I, I adore that woman.
- 44:09Um,
- 44:10and we've been friends for a long time
- 44:13and her husband's pretty awesome too.
- 44:16He's like her coach at all the events.
- 44:18Uh,
- 44:24uh is the masters was okay i don't
- 44:30i my spanish is rusty ortega sorry see
- 44:36the masters steve the masters was not the
- 44:39greatest is that what i heard probably so
- 44:43it's probably that because that i know it
- 44:44was right next to your keyboard yeah
- 44:49very agree to a point i went to
- 44:51the games in on a team and i
- 44:53was the fittest i've ever been in my
- 44:55life but i also was the most unhealthy
- 44:57i've been in my life yeah nutrition and
- 45:01stuff hasn't even been like brought into
- 45:03the um into the mix until the last
- 45:08five six years
- 45:11Yeah.
- 45:11And CrossFit Games athletes are not the
- 45:15paragons of health.
- 45:17No.
- 45:19Yeah,
- 45:19they might look like they were carved out
- 45:21of granite,
- 45:22but believe me when I tell you, like,
- 45:24their biomarkers are probably not
- 45:25fantastic.
- 45:26Yeah.
- 45:30someone made the comment i can't remember
- 45:31what i was watching but like if you
- 45:32look at the old rich videos from maybe
- 45:37it was froning four where they had the
- 45:39pizza boxes and cereal boxes all over the
- 45:41hotel room yeah and that's what they were
- 45:43eating that that weekend and now you have
- 45:46them with their tupperware containers with
- 45:48their chicken and rice and the avocados
- 45:51and the
- 45:52froning's room hotel room looked like a
- 45:55frat party had happened like pizza boxes
- 45:59cereal and just laid about everywhere like
- 46:02that's what it looked like it really
- 46:04really did that's what he ate all weekend
- 46:06when he actually ate because he also was
- 46:10not eating so i don't i'm gonna go
- 46:16down this road i don't know okay so
- 46:20on the bay on the mayhem podcast
- 46:22They're talking about how the media room
- 46:25is like a frat house.
- 46:27Yeah.
- 46:28That they don't let housekeeping come in
- 46:30because of all the rental equipment they
- 46:32have and all the high-end equipment they
- 46:34have and all that stuff.
- 46:35Sure.
- 46:36The hotel they got did not have
- 46:38microwaves,
- 46:38so they bought one at a local Target
- 46:41so they could do stuff.
- 46:43And Ben is talking about draining his
- 46:49chicken in the sink.
- 46:50Yeah.
- 46:52And that everybody drains their chicken in
- 46:53the sink.
- 46:56And the more he kept calling it drain
- 46:58the chicken,
- 46:59the more the twelve-year-old me kept
- 47:02losing my... I lost my mind.
- 47:05And Scott Vandersloot is like,
- 47:07do you really mean drain the chicken?
- 47:10And he goes, yeah,
- 47:11we all drain the chicken.
- 47:17No, you didn't.
- 47:18And he says,
- 47:19and I guess they get chicken in a
- 47:20bag and it
- 47:23And he said something that went along with
- 47:27it that, like, I totally busted a gut.
- 47:30Yeah, I lost my mind completely.
- 47:35Yes, Ortega,
- 47:36that is not what you should call it.
- 47:40Not at all.
- 47:42Not even a little bit.
- 47:44Oh, he said,
- 47:44because they were talking about how dirty
- 47:45the sink was.
- 47:46They drained the chicken,
- 47:47and then he said that Vander Sloot just
- 47:49kept pumping lotion.
- 47:57oh it's not lotion it's soap it's not
- 48:01no no god no i wouldn't have made
- 48:03it there's no way i had to turn
- 48:05it off because i wouldn't have got
- 48:06anything past that i just would have been
- 48:08sitting there and that wasn't even the
- 48:10funniest part of the podcast today because
- 48:13ben fell at the games
- 48:16And they called Darren Hunsaker,
- 48:19and he's witnessed it,
- 48:21and he describes it on the phone over
- 48:24the microphone.
- 48:25It is, I couldn't stop laughing.
- 48:28Jesus Christ.
- 48:30Darren, and I don't know you, obviously,
- 48:35but every time I've seen him somewhere,
- 48:37he seems like he is a kicking ass
- 48:39to hang out with because.
- 48:41So much fun.
- 48:42Yeah, he looks like he's a whole lot.
- 48:46when i work security volunteering at like
- 48:48regionals and stuff he was a blast yeah
- 48:51i bet i have no doubt and his
- 48:56wife is a ball buster well yeah she
- 48:59crack she cracks it and he comes running
- 49:03he's like yes ma'am i'm here um but
- 49:06yeah uh he's he's great the whole mayhem
- 49:09team was awesome to hang out with uh
- 49:11when i work security
- 49:13Oh, I bet.
- 49:15I have no doubt about that.
- 49:19I talked to Garrett Glinton.
- 49:23I think we have a time for the
- 49:24sports show.
- 49:26It appears so.
- 49:26That we talked about yesterday.
- 49:28Yay, sports.
- 49:29Yay, sports.
- 49:32Tuesdays at six p.m.
- 49:33Eastern time.
- 49:39What's worse,
- 49:39draining the chicken or tasting the potato
- 49:41rainbow?
- 49:42FYI,
- 49:44Dan Church texted me yesterday and said he
- 49:46was particularly proud of tasting the
- 49:48potato rainbow.
- 49:48Well,
- 49:50I have given him his flowers over the
- 49:52last two days.
- 49:53Yeah, well-deserved.
- 49:55Well-deserved.
- 50:01I mean, if I'm going to be honest,
- 50:03both can be pleasurable.
- 50:06Depending on what's going on.
- 50:07Yeah.
- 50:10Depending on what's going on.
- 50:11Kind of a hard choice, Trent.
- 50:13Yeah, it's really situational,
- 50:15if I'm being completely honest.
- 50:17It's definitely situational.
- 50:20Oh, that's good shit.
- 50:24I think that's it for today.
- 50:26Nikki is submitting her resignation.
- 50:29She has had just about enough of our
- 50:31shit.
- 50:33Yeah.
- 50:35I have a feeling we're going to get
- 50:36called into HR.
- 50:38It's fine.
- 50:39I'm actually the head of HR, so.
- 50:45Oh, the community cup.
- 50:48How much college football talk will there
- 50:51be, I think it is.
- 50:52I'm curious to know how soon I'll be
- 50:54kicked out of the comment section on that
- 50:56show.
- 50:57I don't have anything against Michigan.
- 50:59I mean,
- 50:59if you want to follow a cheating,
- 51:04adultery-ridden university,
- 51:07that's up to you.
- 51:11Um,
- 51:12but I don't have a problem with them.
- 51:14I'm not an Ohio state fan, Daniel.
- 51:16No, he is not.
- 51:17I just live in the hell that is
- 51:21Ohio state.
- 51:21And he just, yeah.
- 51:25Uh,
- 51:25Avera says my view on the community cup
- 51:26has not changed.
- 51:27Thank you.
- 51:27But hard pass.
- 51:28I like the concept of the community cup.
- 51:30I just think it is an afterthought to
- 51:32CrossFit.
- 51:33And so why is it not going to
- 51:35be an afterthought to everybody else?
- 51:37If you need any more proof that it's
- 51:39an afterthought to CrossFit,
- 51:40it's after the games.
- 51:43Like it's now.
- 51:45No, thank you.
- 51:47Also signing up for that.
- 51:49Train says simultaneous.
- 51:53Huh?
- 51:55Taste the potato rainbow.
- 51:57While draining the chicken.
- 52:02There you go.
- 52:06Corey is the assistant to the HR manager.
- 52:12I can't tell you how much of a
- 52:13fan I am of the office, but yeah,
- 52:15I'll take that.
- 52:22Daniel Arnson says,
- 52:23tasting the potato rainbow would not have
- 52:25happened without him.
- 52:26Yeah,
- 52:26it was your snack time that started the
- 52:28whole fiasco that was yesterday.
- 52:30Brought us to, yeah.
- 52:35Oh, was that dude that commented on it?
- 52:37Is that the guy you met at the
- 52:38games who found out that I wasn't black?
- 52:42I don't know.
- 52:44I did not.
- 52:45I do not.
- 52:45No, no, no, no, no.
- 52:50Yeah.
- 52:50Um, he just probably heard the story.
- 52:52He must've heard the story.
- 52:53Okay.
- 52:56Um, yeah, I think that's it.
- 53:00We ended a little more professionally
- 53:02today.
- 53:03Well,
- 53:04It's about as professional as we get,
- 53:06let's be honest.
- 53:08Oh, yeah.
- 53:09Maybe.
- 53:09Oh, yeah.
- 53:12I know, Tega.
- 53:13It was the imagine my surprise when I
- 53:15found out.
- 53:19Yeah, maybe we didn't end professionally.
- 53:22Don't forget to get your shirts.
- 53:25Still got a ton of them.
- 53:29I think that's it.
- 53:30They're super comfy.
- 53:31The color is absolutely beautiful.
- 53:35They fit well.
- 53:38I probably will sign up for the qualifier
- 53:40for Fittest of the Coast,
- 53:41but I'm not actually going to South
- 53:43Carolina.
- 53:46With that, you know what?
- 53:48It's time for you knuckleheads to get back
- 53:49to work because I got to get back
- 53:50to work too.
