Crossfit, boobies, music on repeat.
0:34
Half hour hustle, yeah,
0:35
we building that brand.
0:36
Grab a plate, tune in now,
0:39
you're part of the fam.
0:43
What is going on, everybody?
0:46
If you are still up,
0:47
you must be on the West Coast.
0:51
I thought I would do one more show
0:53
before I left San Jose.
0:55
I'm catching an Uber down to San Francisco
0:58
in about an hour.
1:01
So just trying to fill some time before
1:05
I have to jump in an Uber and
1:07
head down there because I'm taking the
1:09
overnight red eye from
1:12
Um,
1:13
from San Francisco to Columbus tonight,
1:17
so I can get in bed when in
1:20
my own bed tomorrow at some point.
1:24
But, um, I wanted to like,
1:27
just kind of debrief kind of the
1:29
experience here in San Jose.
1:31
Uh,
1:33
I want to say like I came in,
1:37
um,
1:39
And yes about bedtime in Southern
1:41
California at eight o'clock Meredith.
1:44
Are you ninety?
1:46
I'm just just kidding.
1:50
What a cool like.
1:53
It was just a cool weekend.
1:57
I could nitpick things if I wanted to
2:01
here and there,
2:02
but overall the entire games was just a
2:07
fun watch.
2:08
fun to hang out uh there were only
2:12
like two drops in emotion inside the uh
2:21
inside the venue um so and we talked
2:26
about it the other night that the the
2:27
sack toss the air kind of came out
2:30
of the venue
2:32
They did the seventy two hundred machine
2:35
workout this morning.
2:37
I don't think anybody was up and ready
2:39
for just to watch people row and ski
2:42
erg for twenty minutes or whatever it was.
2:47
But other than that, like.
2:49
There was a lot of cheering,
2:50
a lot of loud.
2:53
They were doing the wave.
2:56
It just was really, really wild.
3:01
And fun.
3:03
And they really loved on the athletes.
3:06
Lots of cheers.
3:07
Every time Pat Vellner came out,
3:09
he got a huge ovation.
3:12
Which, you know,
3:13
I wasn't sure that was going to happen
3:15
with the way the communities reacted to
3:18
things he's done in the past couple years.
3:20
But they really loved on him this weekend.
3:23
And I really love that.
3:27
He's a legend in our sport.
3:29
Multiple time podium winner.
3:35
He also had to do the Pat Vellner
3:37
fall off the rings today,
3:39
just as one last little to the CrossFit
3:43
Games, which was really,
3:46
really kind of funny and ironic.
3:53
But it was a great weekend,
3:55
a great weekend.
4:00
Yeah.
4:06
I listened to the spin cast for twenty
4:08
plus minutes of that event,
4:09
couldn't just watch machines for all that
4:11
time.
4:12
Yeah Meredith,
4:13
I was in the arena for that.
4:16
Thank goodness I was sitting beside Fluffy
4:18
Duck and we were talking the whole time.
4:21
Just chatting, shooting the breeze.
4:26
So that was fun.
4:29
Denise says, the fans,
4:32
first of all Denise,
4:32
congratulations on your silver medal.
4:37
Susan Clark is a savage who scored a
4:42
perfect six hundred points this week in
4:45
the Masters division.
4:47
She is just iconic in the Masters world.
4:51
But Denise came in right behind her.
4:53
So congratulations to Denise.
4:56
The medals looked really cool this year.
5:00
The back of them had a picture of
5:01
the ranch.
5:02
The front showed the CrossFit Games,
5:06
and they were really, really nice.
5:12
So Sherry saw the amount of content this
5:17
weekend was crazy.
5:19
Yeah,
5:20
I was on the Glittens earlier tonight.
5:22
And if you think about it,
5:23
this is our Super Bowl.
5:25
And when the NFL has their Super Bowl,
5:28
the media is blitzed around that place.
5:31
People that don't even cover sports go to
5:34
that event.
5:35
And that's what it feels like at the
5:37
CrossFit Games.
5:38
When you're back in the media room,
5:39
there's people I've never even seen
5:41
before.
5:42
And I watch a lot of content.
5:44
And I've been around this scene since
5:50
And to see people back there I've never
5:51
recognized before is wild.
5:54
But that's the way it is.
5:59
Denise says, thank you.
6:00
Feel like I won coming in second.
6:01
Yeah.
6:04
Coming in second to Susan Clark is nothing
6:09
to scoff at, for sure.
6:12
So today we was kind of the...
6:19
the coronation of Amy Kringle,
6:22
she had such a dominant performance.
6:25
And I want to spell this out for
6:27
you guys.
6:28
The podium,
6:30
the top three in the women's side,
6:33
were two hundred points ahead of fourth
6:38
place.
6:40
Two hundred.
6:41
The top three were a Tia-like performance
6:45
against the rest of the field.
6:48
And then with that,
6:49
Amy Kringle was another hundred and twenty
6:52
ahead of them.
6:56
That is a mind boggling domination.
7:03
When Tia did her thing,
7:04
second through tenth were all in that
7:06
little hopper basket of stuff, right?
7:10
This was three women dominating the field
7:15
and one dominating them.
7:19
That's how epic Amy Kringle was this
7:22
weekend.
7:23
And you could tell,
7:25
I'm not sure she'd admit this,
7:27
but the foot came off the gas pedal
7:29
a little bit today.
7:31
She was just making sure she was clean
7:34
and getting through every event and doing
7:39
what she needed to take the crown.
7:45
It was masterful what she did this
7:49
weekend.
7:50
Five events,
7:51
a quarter of the events she won.
7:57
A quarter.
8:00
That's amazing.
8:03
Then on the men's side, we have
8:07
The podium there were well over a hundred
8:10
points ahead of fourth place.
8:12
There was no chance of anybody catching
8:16
Jay Crouch, Dallin Pepper,
8:19
and James Sprague.
8:22
They dominated the field and James and
8:26
Dallin were close.
8:29
I picked James to win a week ago,
8:34
but my heart wanted Dallin to win at
8:36
the event.
8:39
And it was...
8:42
Dallin tried everything he could.
8:45
Everything he could to overtake James.
8:47
And James just didn't make the big
8:49
mistake.
8:52
He made a big one earlier in the
8:53
weekend by not hitting the buzzer.
8:56
But he didn't make the big mistake to
8:58
open up the door for Dallin to sneak
9:03
in.
9:05
So...
9:08
Yeah.
9:10
Crazy.
9:14
So fun to watch.
9:16
The arena was ramped up today.
9:20
The forward roll to support,
9:23
backward roll to support got so much
9:25
applause.
9:26
So many people yelling for it.
9:28
I thought it was going to be a
9:30
dud.
9:31
It was far from a dud.
9:34
The people trying to get those last-minute
9:38
rolls in, the place blew up for Ariel,
9:42
blew up for Paige,
9:44
blew up for Dallin and James.
9:47
It was wild.
9:54
Had my fingers crossed that Justin
9:56
Capodian this weekend wasn't in the cards.
9:59
No.
9:59
And they,
10:00
and they really pulled away from him over
10:03
the last few events.
10:05
Um, it was, uh,
10:10
poor page was never mentioned on the
10:12
broadcast.
10:13
That's crazy.
10:15
During that role to support stuff,
10:18
like she did great on the last two
10:19
events.
10:21
Really great.
10:23
Um,
10:25
They were calling her name out a ton
10:28
in the arena with the floor announcers.
10:40
KDL points out no American woman on the
10:43
podium.
10:43
Yeah, we're just back to where we are.
10:49
Used to be that way all the time.
10:57
Just like how they missed Olivia on the
10:59
last event winning.
11:00
Oh, my gosh.
11:03
I watched the broadcast yesterday just
11:06
because I wanted to see what it was
11:07
like.
11:08
And I just needed to get out of
11:10
the noise because I'd been here since the
11:12
Masters started.
11:14
And I thought it was good.
11:17
I thought it was really good.
11:21
So that sucks that today kind of went
11:23
that way.
11:30
Yeah,
11:31
Paige went first and second on the last
11:32
two workouts.
11:35
I wish she didn't come in with a
11:36
rolled ankle.
11:37
It would have been cool to see how
11:40
she would have done fully healthy.
11:44
But you just can't, it's sports.
11:46
You just can't control that kind of thing.
11:51
Denise says it was pretty crowded even
11:53
Friday.
11:53
The Vendor Village was a hit, I think.
11:57
It was really crowded today and yesterday
12:01
and pretty good crowd on Friday.
12:05
And it's a much bigger arena than we've
12:06
ever been in.
12:07
So that was good to see.
12:12
It gives me hope that we might be
12:14
heading in the right direction in some
12:16
aspects.
12:22
But who knows?
12:24
They got to take this momentum and they
12:27
got to put it into a season that
12:29
makes sense next year.
12:33
Because if they don't build off of the
12:35
momentum they created here,
12:37
which was good momentum, good momentum,
12:41
smart marketing throughout the off season
12:45
to get us to what was announced tonight,
12:48
the new open dates for twenty twenty
12:50
seven.
12:52
which is a week earlier than it's been
12:57
in the past.
12:59
So maybe that means no invites to
13:02
semifinals.
13:06
Yes, Shanna,
13:07
hopefully a season that is smarter.
13:10
Something that I can explain to my
13:12
friends.
13:22
Meredith says,
13:23
I'm really curious if Lucy could have
13:25
challenged Amy if she had been able to
13:27
do triple unders and the parallel bar
13:29
thing.
13:31
But she couldn't.
13:32
That's kind of the name of the game.
13:38
If you got to be able to do
13:39
the things that are put in front of
13:41
you.
13:44
And you can't say what if.
13:48
You just can't like.
13:57
I think people at home will consider this
13:59
year a step backwards,
14:00
but I think that's short-sighted.
14:02
It was a good games.
14:05
Can you elaborate, Markham,
14:06
why you think that?
14:08
Because being here, I don't feel a step.
14:13
I think it was way better than last
14:15
year.
14:16
And last year had good vibes.
14:19
in the arena.
14:20
This year was much better.
14:22
I saw Denise say earlier that she loved
14:24
the opening ceremonies.
14:25
It was so cool seeing all the divisions
14:28
walk out together with their flags filling
14:32
the floor.
14:34
It was awesome.
14:37
Awesome.
14:45
Shelly young,
14:45
who I got to meet this weekend or
14:47
this week.
14:48
And she's just the loveliest person.
14:51
Uh,
14:51
most of the people who are sitting around
14:53
us for first timers,
14:54
they were having a blast.
14:56
One just started CrossFit last year.
14:58
That's what we need to see.
15:05
Um,
15:12
I have made comments about the spin savant
15:15
beefs.
15:16
That is not my place to step in.
15:18
I don't know the facts,
15:20
and I'm not going to irresponsibly make
15:22
comments that I don't know.
15:29
Mark Phillips,
15:29
I'm trying to get you up here.
15:31
Boring events, broadcast nafus,
15:33
paywalled events.
15:35
Well,
15:35
if you think the paywalls are going away,
15:37
you're highly mistaken.
15:40
If you didn't see it already,
15:42
Waterpalooza has signed a deal with Flow
15:44
Elite.
15:45
So now Flow Elite is going to have
15:48
Waterpalooza on its umbrella as well.
15:52
It is an infusion of money into the
15:54
ecosystem.
15:56
And just like every other thing that we
15:58
watch or have for entertainment,
16:02
you are going to have to pay for
16:05
it.
16:06
It just is what it is.
16:10
But I will give Flo this.
16:12
I started following them on Instagram.
16:14
They promoted the hell out of the CrossFit
16:17
Games.
16:19
A ton.
16:22
A ton.
16:30
Not a fan of the GHD wall ball
16:31
triple unders.
16:32
I watched all the events.
16:33
The only event I turned off early was
16:35
the sandbag throw.
16:38
Again, John, I could nitpick things,
16:41
but as a whole,
16:42
it was really fun to watch.
16:45
And I can say this,
16:46
going back in all my years,
16:48
there was an event that I didn't like
16:50
at the games.
16:52
They never go about a thousand during the
16:55
games.
16:55
There's stuff that I didn't like.
17:00
So to nitpick this one,
17:04
they all have their shortcomings.
17:08
You're going to.
17:10
You don't know how it's going to play.
17:11
Like, I, honest to God,
17:12
thought this forward roll,
17:13
backward roll thing was going to be as
17:15
lame as lame could be.
17:17
And it turned out to be so much
17:19
fun in person.
17:21
I don't know if that came through on
17:22
the TV, but it was fun in person.
17:30
Anna Shoup,
17:31
I think that is understating it.
17:33
Amy came prepared for all of it.
17:36
She did.
17:40
Meg says,
17:41
the best part of the weekend you got
17:42
to hang with us.
17:45
It was.
17:45
You and Joseph are awesome.
17:48
But the true best part was watching you
17:52
try to take down a sandwich that thick.
17:56
I think you unhooked your jaw like a
17:59
snake to get your mouth around that
18:03
sandwich.
18:03
And you just...
18:07
Plus,
18:07
you looked like you hadn't eaten in six
18:09
days.
18:10
You were going after that sandwich like it
18:11
was your job.
18:13
That was my favorite moment of the
18:14
weekend.
18:22
Wayne Short,
18:23
I sat next to a couple from Australia
18:25
with no personal connection to an athlete,
18:27
just traveled here for the games as fans.
18:30
That's not a cheap trip from Australia.
18:37
Mark agrees that those takes are
18:40
short-sighted.
18:51
John George paid, will pay again.
18:53
Worth it.
18:53
Back to the idea.
18:54
If it helps CrossFit, I'll keep paying.
18:57
This is what I want to see next
18:58
though, John.
19:00
There were promises that they were going
19:03
to do some update shows.
19:05
They were going to create some content.
19:08
Maybe they're going to pull in some
19:09
third-party media.
19:11
Who knows?
19:12
But to put content out year-round,
19:15
not just these events.
19:18
And that's what I want to see next.
19:25
Shanna said there seemed to be more first
19:27
timers and multi-year attendees.
19:29
I was expecting more repeat people,
19:31
especially since it was the twentieth
19:32
anniversary.
19:33
Yeah,
19:34
Kiki did a thing like cheer if this
19:37
is your first time at the games,
19:39
cheer if you've been here multiple years.
19:41
And I think the first timers were louder
19:44
than the multi-timers.
19:58
He says a quick turnaround on all the
20:00
workouts is great to spectators,
20:01
but hard on the athletes and have no
20:04
issue with that.
20:05
It was hard on the media too.
20:18
I know nobody cares about us.
20:20
But trying to like download pictures and
20:22
download stuff and really getting no break
20:26
unless you were going to miss a heat
20:28
or two.
20:33
Denise Scott, I looked for you,
20:34
never found you.
20:35
I saw you a bunch at the Masters
20:37
games, Denise, from across the way.
20:41
But you seemed preoccupied,
20:42
and that's fine.
20:43
You're an athlete out there taking your
20:45
silver medal,
20:46
doing all that kind of stuff.
20:47
I get it.
20:51
And Meg says,
20:52
but demolish that demolish that sandwich.
20:55
She sure did.
20:56
I think it was her job.
21:03
Um, what else from the weekend masters,
21:08
uh,
21:08
the events played out much better than I
21:10
thought they were.
21:12
Uh, DT was fun to watch.
21:16
I always get to love to watch my
21:19
Masters athlete friends like Shanna and
21:23
Denise and Kate and of course Jamie and
21:26
Carolyn.
21:28
And speaking of Jamie and Carolyn,
21:30
tonight is our normal Sunday Night
21:32
CrossFit talk show.
21:33
Everybody's traveling right now.
21:36
And so we are postponing that until
21:38
Tuesday night.
21:39
But we're going to do a Tuesday night
21:41
show and debrief with both of them on
21:45
their experiences at the games.
21:48
And of course,
21:48
Carolyn winning the thirty five to thirty
21:51
nine year old division and getting gold in
21:53
that.
21:55
And and then going out into Vendor Village
21:58
and winning the deadlift competition.
22:06
Speculation is next year's site of the
22:08
games.
22:09
I have not heard a peep.
22:13
I think they are.
22:16
I think that Bruce has to make whatever
22:20
moves he's gonna make with CrossFit HQ
22:24
before we hear much more about that.
22:28
But I'm glad they got the open dates
22:29
out there.
22:31
So people doing the open can schedule
22:33
around it, can figure it out.
22:38
She has, gosh,
22:40
I have a dry throat tonight.
22:43
Shanna says Europe.
22:45
I think it's too early to go to
22:46
Europe and it's expensive.
22:49
All that equipment to ship overseas.
22:53
They complain that they don't have any
22:54
money now.
22:59
Can you imagine if they tried to get
23:01
all that stuff over to Europe?
23:03
And the one thing that is for sure
23:05
if they go to Europe is there are
23:07
no venues that will give you a festival
23:09
feel.
23:14
didn't get that here as much but the
23:17
nice thing was you have the arena and
23:21
then over here you had a park with
23:24
workouts going on and then back here you
23:28
had vendor village that was outdoors with
23:32
everybody having tents vendor village i
23:35
think was bigger than last year it felt
23:39
bigger because it was outside
23:42
People were out getting some sun.
23:44
The weather was beautiful this weekend.
23:49
So Vendor Village felt cool.
23:51
And CrossFit had a big store there.
23:54
So did Rogue.
23:56
Proven had a big tent there.
23:58
And then, of course,
24:01
you had your coffee places.
24:03
You had Yeti.
24:04
You had RX Smart Gear.
24:08
Velites was making custom stuff this
24:11
weekend.
24:18
So to me,
24:21
it felt much bigger than in the last
24:26
two years, Albany and Fort Worth.
24:31
Trish says there will be no games next
24:37
year.
24:38
I don't think that's the case.
24:39
I just don't know what it's going to
24:41
look like.
24:49
I wonder if they felt having all the
24:51
divisions in one week at one location is
24:54
something that worked.
24:56
I don't know.
24:57
I don't know.
24:58
I'm hearing so many conflicting things,
25:00
Denise,
25:01
from organizers of the age group division
25:06
athletes, the adaptive athletes.
25:10
I'm hearing so many conflicting things.
25:12
I don't
25:13
I just don't know.
25:15
I don't know if I have faith that
25:17
there's as much communication back and
25:19
forth as it is.
25:23
I really feel like CrossFit just wants to
25:27
rid themselves of the divisional athletes,
25:31
but they're too big of a moneymaker for
25:34
them.
25:40
Dana M had a frigging blast.
25:42
My voice has gone from cheering for
25:44
Colton.
25:45
Everyone seemed to be having a great time.
25:55
I agree.
25:56
Everybody seemed to be having a fun time.
25:59
People were dancing in the seats.
26:03
People were doing the flex cam.
26:05
People were just having a good time,
26:08
singing to the music.
26:11
The DJ was doing a good job.
26:16
And you know what was one of the
26:17
coolest things is them awarding the event
26:21
prizes right after the event.
26:24
In years past,
26:25
you waited until the very end in the
26:27
awards ceremony.
26:28
and you had to go through all twenty
26:31
events, both male and female,
26:33
handing out the plaques,
26:36
handing out the checks.
26:38
This year they did it right after each
26:40
event.
26:41
You won this event, come on over,
26:43
here's your plaque, here's your check,
26:46
presented by the sponsor of the event,
26:50
shake some hands, take a picture, move on.
27:04
Denise,
27:04
I don't believe that Legends is having
27:06
their comp in December this year.
27:09
I don't.
27:11
You know me.
27:11
I have like zero contact with Bob and
27:16
Joe.
27:18
Bob sat by me in the stands today,
27:21
looked at me and said, what up, Bob?
27:23
And I said, not much.
27:25
And that is all we said to each
27:26
other.
27:28
And I think he did it just to
27:30
like get at me because he knows I've
27:32
been critical of them.
27:34
But he didn't confront me about any of
27:35
that.
27:36
He just kind of did the passive thing.
27:39
So I don't know.
27:48
I don't know.
27:49
I just feel like there's no
27:55
outside-the-box thinking in that area with
28:00
the two-floor thing.
28:01
I just can't get over it.
28:04
I just can't.
28:05
If you have to do two floors,
28:07
then do it in a way that you
28:09
can watch the best athletes at different
28:11
times.
28:21
So, yeah, it just,
28:25
that really bummed me out because I was
28:29
there in person.
28:31
And when Carolyn's going head-to-head with
28:33
Mackenzie Riley,
28:35
and Noah and Scott are going head-to-head
28:37
on the other floor,
28:38
and I didn't get to watch any of
28:40
Noah and Scott.
28:42
You just can't split, like, I don't know.
28:46
I'm a man.
28:46
I can't multitask.
28:49
What can I tell you?
28:50
It's frustrating.
28:54
Ariel Lone won Spirit of the Game's
28:58
Nobody deserves it more than she does.
28:59
She's freaking awesome.
29:01
I love that Yeti changed the trophy to
29:04
something cool as opposed to that noble
29:09
thing.
29:15
So glad that happened.
29:17
And you get a Yeti cooler,
29:19
which is the packaging to get it home.
29:22
That was pretty cool.
29:28
What else?
29:30
Trying to think of the vibes of the
29:32
day and different things I just wanted to
29:33
share.
29:38
Yeah, that's pretty much it.
29:41
I'm headed for a plane in about forty
29:44
five minutes now.
29:52
Makes sense.
29:53
Scale down number of athletes,
29:54
bigger space, stupid dueling floors, dumb,
29:56
just my opinion.
29:58
We all have opinions.
30:05
The Yeti is amazing and so is the
30:08
medal.
30:21
um scott did you go to the wednesday
30:24
morgan hill event i did not so i
30:28
only got one lanyard so only one admission
30:32
uh to those events with my media
30:34
credentials and my photographer uh who is
30:37
e captures on instagram his name is
30:40
ishmael he is the best in the business
30:44
i let him have the lanyard so he
30:46
could go out and get all the shots
30:49
um
30:50
And he has posted them and collaborated
30:52
with me.
30:54
So if you go to my Instagram,
30:55
you can see them all.
30:58
He is freaking fantastic.
31:03
John,
31:03
we don't need to make fun of people.
31:05
My red eye is truly overnight.
31:09
I will leave at twelve thirty a.m.
31:11
tonight and I will get to Columbus at
31:14
ten a.m.
31:14
tomorrow.
31:21
Denise says,
31:22
I'm confused why the Monster Games was the
31:24
same weekend as the games.
31:26
That is because the games moved their
31:28
schedule.
31:30
The Monster Games always are this week.
31:33
They have been for a while.
31:36
They had everything set.
31:37
They had the venue already acquired.
31:43
And then CrossFit moved their games to the
31:46
same weekend.
31:56
And it was too late and too much
31:58
commitment made to this week for Monster
32:00
Games to give up on that.
32:03
But from everything I heard from Corey,
32:05
it was an awesome event.
32:08
Really well run.
32:09
Had a lot of fun.
32:11
So who knows?
32:16
It may be an option or an alternative
32:18
to the CrossFit Games Masters next year.
32:25
If you want to try something different.
32:31
So.
32:33
Well,
32:33
that's all I really have to say tonight.
32:35
I'm going to try to get my thoughts
32:37
organized more.
32:44
Shanna says it looked more awesome than
32:46
the Masters games.
32:48
I don't know.
32:48
I didn't really see anything,
32:49
so I can't really comment on that.
32:53
The one thing I know for a fact.
32:55
is the field at the Masters CrossFit Games
32:57
was awesome.
32:58
You had the best of the best here.
33:02
And if you, as a spectator,
33:06
flushed all of the other crap out and
33:10
watched the events and watched these elite
33:13
athletes do things at ages that you would
33:17
never expect them to do,
33:21
You know,
33:21
everybody bitches about the hip mobility
33:24
and high rocks because the woman is sixty
33:26
five.
33:28
I posted a video of seventy plus grass
33:32
to grass on their squats.
33:36
That's what's cool.
33:39
These athletes that are like defying age,
33:43
showing you that you can age gracefully.
33:46
That's what's cool.
33:51
And I don't want that taken away from
33:53
a games atmosphere,
33:57
but I understand the frustrations as well.
34:03
But just from a spectator view,
34:05
like you athletes are freaking awesome.
34:08
And we had the best of the best
34:10
here.
34:12
And it was at the CrossFit Games.
34:16
And if you want to go up against
34:17
the best, you kind of stuck with it.
34:23
So I don't know.
34:26
We'll see what happens.
34:28
I've heard there's some proposed changes,
34:32
but who knows if those are going to
34:34
happen.
34:35
Who knows if CrossFit's going to listen to
34:37
them.
34:42
So same weekend as Comic-Con, too.
34:49
Well, what I can tell you,
34:51
this I know for sure.
34:54
is that the anime convention was in San
34:59
Jose this weekend.
35:02
And so in my breakfast area of my
35:07
hotel in the morning,
35:09
it was all CrossFitters and all people
35:12
dressed up like different anime
35:14
characters, which is a wild combination.
35:23
And they actually shared the convention
35:26
center with the divisional athletes this
35:30
weekend.
35:33
What a combination to put together in the
35:35
same convention center on the same
35:37
weekend.
35:42
Shannon says it was a fun mix.
35:45
The oddity convention too.
35:51
Yep.
35:52
San Jose was awesome.
35:54
I said to my wife,
35:55
if it wasn't for the taxes, the politics,
35:58
and the earthquakes,
35:59
I would move here in a heartbeat.
36:05
But here we are going back to Ohio.
36:13
So anything left on what I want to
36:18
say?
36:20
Huge shout out to eCaptures,
36:24
Holly Dugan for putting out schedules all
36:26
weekend.
36:27
And behind the scenes,
36:29
Vicki Duncan has been helping me with
36:30
thumbnails and scheduling and all of that
36:36
kind of stuff.
36:38
Small team.
36:39
Small team.
36:41
But we get a lot done.
36:43
And I got to do, what,
36:44
five shows this weekend?
36:45
Yeah.
36:48
Got to hop on with Glintons too.
36:50
So that's fun.
36:53
The last thing I'm going to tell you
36:54
is I was talking to Wayne Short at
36:58
the Masters Games,
36:59
who is in our chat all the time.
37:01
We had a conversation.
37:04
I've been looking for something creative
37:05
to do in the upcoming season,
37:08
and Wayne may have solved my problem.
37:13
So thank you, Wayne.
37:16
We're going to test some things out,
37:18
and hopefully we have a fun,
37:20
fun project to do in the upcoming season.
37:25
With that, guys, I'm going to head out.
37:28
I'm going to finish packing,
37:30
and then I will see you not tomorrow.
37:34
Guaranteed no lunch show tomorrow.
37:38
I am not going to be equipped to
37:40
do that.
37:41
But we'll be back with lunch on Tuesday.
37:43
And then Tuesday night,
37:44
we'll get the girls in and we'll do
37:48
a Sunday night CrossFit talk on a Tuesday.
37:51
And then back to the regular schedule
37:53
after that.
37:54
I hope.
37:56
With that, guys,
37:57
have a great rest of your night.
38:00
Come on, John George.
38:02
It's season finale.
38:04
I got to do a cliffhanger.
38:06
I got to do a cliffhanger.
38:13
Taxes, politics, road congestion,
38:15
and cost of living,
38:18
earthquakes are the least problematic.
38:21
Yeah.
38:24
Safe travels, sir.
38:25
Tuesday it is.
38:25
Thank you.
38:26
Safe flight from Merida.
38:27
Thank you.
38:30
Yeah.
38:32
I think you guys are going to like
38:33
the project I'm trying to do.
38:34
Hopefully I can pull it off.
38:36
I don't want to say too much because
38:37
if I can't pull it off,
38:38
then I'm just empty promises.
38:40
Oh, and when I get home,
38:42
When we get back on the air on
38:43
Tuesday,
38:44
I'll have how you can order shirts.
38:46
I have the shipping materials already
38:48
purchased.
38:48
The shirt showed up three hours after I
38:51
left.
38:52
So I have them.
38:54
I have all sizes.
38:57
We'll figure that out.
38:59
I'll give you guys how you can order
39:00
next this coming Tuesday on both shows.
39:06
With that, now we'll say good night.
39:08
Hope you guys have a great rest of
39:09
your night and a great start to your
39:11
week.
39:12
And we'll see you next time on Lunch
39:15
with the Clydesdale.
39:16
You wouldn't wait to get to the editing
39:18
room to jazz me up.
39:20
I'm already jazzy.
39:31

39:33
