Lunch with the Clydesdale - I Respond to the Top 100 Women's List · Clydesdale Media Podcast

0:02
So they did it.
0:04
They counted down the top one hundred
0:06
women.
0:07
Did we need it?
0:19
I love the chase and the hunt and
0:21
I set the pace when I'm running.
0:22
I always take what I want and I
0:24
always give it one hundred.
0:25
Don't need a bank, no I'm funded.
0:27
Play the game like it's nothing.
0:28
I'm always thankful for something.
0:30
Don't take for granted, stay humble.
0:31
Now wake up!
0:33
It's time to look at the enemy.
0:35
Look in the mirror if he is no
0:37
friend to me.
0:38
It's not working out,
0:39
maybe it's the chemistry.
0:41
It's time to break up so I can
0:43
make a better me.
0:44
It's lunch time.
0:50
what is going on everybody welcome to
0:53
lunch with the clydesdale good to be back
0:55
on a friday afternoon oh man what a
0:59
week what a week ready for the weekend
1:02
ready to chill and relax hope you guys
1:05
have had a great week yesterday i tuned
1:09
in for the us canada finals in the
1:12
women's hockey it was a beautiful day
1:15
outside
1:17
One thing you have to know,
1:18
I get very excited at watching sports,
1:22
watching sports.
1:22
But most of the time,
1:25
most of the time,
1:26
like my passion is my Chicago Bears and
1:30
then the CrossFit events.
1:31
So most of the time,
1:33
my house is sealed up.
1:36
And because it's winter time and I'm
1:38
rooting for my bears,
1:40
but yesterday I tuned into USA,
1:42
Canada women's hockey.
1:43
What a game comes down to an empty
1:48
net extra man situation for the U S
1:52
women who tip the goal in,
1:55
tie it up and take it to overtime.
1:58
They go to three on three hockey for
2:00
overtime.
2:02
And then, and then,
2:06
What an amazing play.
2:08
A little deke,
2:10
go past the goalie and backhand in for
2:13
the score.
2:14
And I literally, literally screamed, goal!
2:21
as loud as I could back door was
2:24
wide open,
2:24
letting some fresh air come in yesterday.
2:27
My whole neighborhood knew I was excited
2:29
that the U S scored the goal.
2:31
I couldn't like, it just,
2:33
it just blurted out of me at full
2:36
decibel language or, uh,
2:38
uh loudness what a game what a game
2:42
i that's why we love sports it is
2:44
so unpredictable the u.s women dominated
2:47
the entire tournament and canada had them
2:51
on the ropes the u.s has not won
2:54
a goal since
2:57
They've been silver to the Canadians the
2:59
last two Olympics.
3:01
And to finally get that win, oh,
3:04
so freaking awesome.
3:07
What a way to end yesterday.
3:10
I was so pumped.
3:13
Really made the end of my workday go
3:14
wild.
3:15
But yeah, so, so cool.
3:17
If you did not get a chance to
3:18
see it,
3:19
Amazing.
3:20
And today we have the men.
3:22
Canada plays in the one semifinal against
3:24
Finland.
3:25
The US plays in the other semifinal.
3:27
Hopefully we get a US Canada final where
3:31
we can watch that.
3:32
I think it'll be on Sunday.
3:36
But yeah.
3:37
But in that case,
3:38
I think the Canadians would be favored.
3:40
U.S.
3:41
would be the plucky underdogs.
3:43
And we'd see how that kind of played
3:45
out.
3:45
But man, what a freaking game.
3:48
What a freaking game.
3:51
Got a lot of people in the chat.
3:53
We got Vicky.
3:54
We got Dave.
3:55
We've got Frida.
3:56
We've got Mark.
3:58
Corey.
3:58
Corey is not here because he's dealing
4:00
with stuff from the accident.
4:02
But he says he might jump on if
4:03
he gets back in time.
4:05
We've got Andrew Sten.
4:09
We've got Sean in Oregon back with us.
4:12
Good to see you, Sean.
4:13
Been a minute.
4:14
Glad to be here and happy to be
4:15
a paid supporter of this channel.
4:17
Yes, thank you so much for just,
4:19
I think, as low as three ninety nine.
4:21
You can support the channel by hitting
4:22
that membership button.
4:24
It helps us keep this show running.
4:26
So, yeah, there's Terry.
4:31
We've got Amanda.
4:32
Figure skating had me up way too late,
4:34
but so worth it.
4:36
Yeah,
4:37
I haven't got into figure skating this
4:38
year.
4:39
Watching a lot of snowboarding,
4:41
watching a lot of skiing,
4:43
watching some curling,
4:45
watching a lot of hockey.
4:48
I think that there's so much going on
4:50
at the Olympics that it's hard to digest
4:54
it all.
4:55
You almost have to pick your lanes for
4:58
the Olympics and then just get the updates
5:02
on everything else.
5:05
So yeah, it's been fun though.
5:11
So the big news,
5:13
if anybody didn't see it,
5:21
I think this is the real.
5:23
I'm going to share it.
5:24
Hopefully this is the real.
5:29
Hiller clipped this from a show I did,
5:32
I think.
5:33
Yep.
5:34
like Brian is sticking his chest out like,
5:37
John can't beat me down to a hundred.
5:41
I think there's people that would still
5:42
like to see me and John do some
5:43
stuff together.
5:44
Like a top hundred sort of deal?
5:46
I would be up for it.
5:47
I don't know if John could go a
5:49
hundred deep.
5:49
But here's the deal.
5:50
Why do you need to go a hundred
5:51
deep?
5:52
Top ten in the world for women,
5:54
top twenty for men.
5:55
He's as good as anyone.
5:56
Why is that even a thing?
5:58
My full-time job is this sport.
6:01
The media is too close to the athletes.
6:03
What happens if he were to beat you?
6:05
I will never root for Brooke Wills.
6:06
How would he beat me?
6:08
John was riding Austin Hatfield.
6:10
It became personal with me.
6:12
I will never root for Brookwells.
6:14
Sorry.
6:15
It's a fact.
6:15
Brian Brent,
6:17
that's why I'm the best analyst in this
6:19
place.
6:20
It makes no sense.
6:24
It doesn't matter what you think.
6:29
So, uh,
6:31
Hiller clipped that up from my show and
6:33
some of his show, uh,
6:35
and they did a top one hundred women
6:37
in the world countdown today.
6:41
Uh, it was released about two hours ago.
6:43
I watched it on time and a half
6:45
speed, uh,
6:46
to get through it before we did the
6:49
show today.
6:52
Um, my question to you is,
6:53
and I still stand by this,
6:55
why do we need to go to a
6:57
hundred?
6:58
Why do we need to go to a
6:59
hundred?
7:00
And, um, and so because,
7:08
and we talked about this and I talked
7:09
about it with Corey a few weeks ago.
7:13
I don't get it.
7:14
Like the games only has the top thirty
7:18
in the world.
7:20
And so the people relevant to the games
7:23
are probably top fifty or
7:28
Now,
7:29
I want to make it clear because Jamie
7:31
kind of came at me last night when
7:32
we were texting that her and I have
7:35
been one of the people who care about
7:37
the top one hundred.
7:38
It's not that I don't care about the
7:40
top one hundred.
7:41
It's not that I don't care about those
7:43
athletes and their stories because I do.
7:46
I think those stories could be told.
7:48
And there are some really interesting
7:50
stories in there that should be told.
7:53
But when you get past...
7:57
I mean, let's safely say forty.
8:00
I would probably say thirty.
8:04
The difference between the athletes is so
8:06
minute, is so minute,
8:09
and it's so program dependent that to rank
8:13
them just seems silly.
8:17
Like,
8:17
I'm glad that some of these people are
8:19
getting talked about and that their
8:23
stories are being told a little bit.
8:26
But to rank them just doesn't seem to
8:30
matter to me.
8:32
Because really, really, the, gosh,
8:37
you could even, like,
8:39
they made a great point with Hannah Black,
8:41
right?
8:43
John is like, she is a specialist.
8:45
She's a strength specialist.
8:46
She can win strength events and she can
8:49
do very well at that.
8:51
If the bias of that programming is towards
8:54
strength,
8:55
she will do better than somebody who is
8:58
not strength bias.
9:00
Yet,
9:01
if Hannah goes to another competition and
9:05
it is not strength biased and it's more
9:07
CrossFit-y and it's more gymnastics,
9:11
she's going to get trounced by some of
9:13
these people that you have ranked around
9:15
her.
9:15
It is so program dependent.
9:18
It is so, so program dependent.
9:21
Yeah.
9:27
Larry Young says,
9:28
I watch everything and I have zero desire
9:30
to watch that.
9:40
We don't.
9:40
No one cares after maybe twenty five or
9:42
thirty.
9:43
See,
9:43
I think that's where the verbiage is is
9:46
different.
9:47
There are people I care about.
9:51
deeply that they've ranked beyond thirty.
9:55
That I love their stories.
9:56
That I love seeing them at events.
9:59
That I love watching them on the floor.
10:02
But I think to rank them is the
10:04
silly part.
10:06
Now,
10:08
this is a world where you're trying to
10:09
create content.
10:10
You're trying to come up with
10:13
conversations.
10:14
And the two-hour interview they did
10:17
together was
10:19
created storylines they talked it was some
10:22
of it was very very compelling and some
10:24
of it was very interesting but to to
10:27
have the rankings mean anything just just
10:32
doesn't matter just doesn't matter um
10:37
I already said that one.
10:39
Sean,
10:39
how many elite CrossFit athletes are even
10:41
out there?
10:41
Doesn't a hundred basically cover them
10:43
all?
10:44
You'd be surprised who they have in the
10:46
top one hundred.
10:47
They are names you know.
10:52
But again,
10:53
I just don't know what the difference
10:56
between sixty and ninety is.
10:59
Because ninety could beat sixty on any
11:01
given day if the programming's right.
11:08
Craig says a hundred would highlight
11:09
developing and upcoming athletes to look
11:11
out for her in the future.
11:13
I think we should do that.
11:15
I do Craig.
11:15
I think we should highlight up and coming
11:17
athletes.
11:18
I just think a ranking is, is silly.
11:25
It would only matter if we had regionals
11:26
back.
11:28
I think even if we had a semifinal
11:31
that you had one shot and,
11:36
or maybe two shots but this like where
11:38
you can be at sixteen different semifinals
11:41
takes a lot of the fifty beyond out
11:44
of the mix um so uh Mark says
11:54
I'm about fifty minutes in in the banter
11:56
is interesting I suppose um
12:02
Yeah, like I said,
12:03
there was some good banter.
12:04
There was some good discussion.
12:06
I think what came out of it for
12:10
me on the whole is...
12:13
That John and Brian have very distinct
12:15
differences in what they value as
12:19
meaningful competition for these athletes
12:23
and how they rank them is dependent on
12:27
how they performed in what they deem to
12:30
be important.
12:31
And what they deem to be important is
12:33
very different.
12:38
So...
12:41
Terry says,
12:41
has this been posted on YouTube on
12:43
Hiller's channel?
12:43
I haven't seen it.
12:44
It is on Hiller's channel.
12:48
Here is the, they actually have,
12:52
if you don't want to sit through the
12:53
two hours,
12:54
they actually have the rankings.
12:57
They're right here.
12:59
The barbell spin actually put it up.
13:03
And he collaborated with Hiller
13:04
apparently.
13:06
But there are the rankings right there.
13:09
One through a hundred.
13:14
So if you just want to see what
13:15
the rankings are, there they are.
13:19
The other thing that became abundantly
13:21
clear to me and is something that I
13:23
mentioned in the show previously is that
13:28
every one of us media members,
13:29
because of the close-knitness of this
13:32
community,
13:33
have a relationship with a lot of these
13:36
athletes.
13:38
And because of those relationships,
13:40
we have a bias.
13:43
And that's where when I said,
13:45
I don't root for Brookwell's, right?
13:48
That was one example that I gave.
13:50
Like the full context of that is in
13:53
all of my travels,
13:55
in all of my covering events,
13:57
I've asked a lot of athletes for an
13:59
interview.
14:00
A lot of athletes.
14:02
And Brooke Wells always denied me an
14:07
interview every single time.
14:09
And she has the right to do that.
14:11
She's at a competition.
14:13
I'm not there to take away from her
14:15
performance.
14:16
But because of that,
14:17
I'm just never going to root for her.
14:19
She never gave me the time of day.
14:21
She gave other people the time of day,
14:23
but she chose not me.
14:25
And because of that,
14:26
my bias is that I didn't want her
14:28
to do well.
14:31
On the other hand,
14:32
someone like Ariel Lowen will just come up
14:34
to me and stand beside me on the
14:36
rail and have a conversation with me.
14:38
I don't even have a mic in front
14:39
of me.
14:40
We just hang out and talk.
14:42
Emily Rolfe will do that.
14:43
Because of that,
14:45
they are way higher in my rankings than
14:48
other people because I have a great
14:50
relationship with them and they always
14:53
come and say hi and they always say
14:55
yes when I ask for an interview.
14:57
So I have a bias and I know,
15:00
I know that Brian and John have biases
15:03
as well because they've developed
15:05
relationships with athletes.
15:08
I see John on the spin all the
15:09
time,
15:10
text Allen or text Austin or text whoever,
15:14
like he has a relationship with these
15:17
people.
15:18
And so in his head,
15:20
he is going to root for them or
15:23
that is going to taint his opinion of
15:26
them in how they should be ranked.
15:33
So all of these rankings have biases to
15:37
them.
15:38
And in this case,
15:39
because of what happened in twenty twenty
15:41
fourth,
15:41
the CrossFit Games and WFP being created,
15:45
the two of them have very,
15:46
very different biases.
15:48
And it became abundantly clear when they
15:50
were talking how those biases affect
15:54
affected these rankings.
16:00
Frida, when it gets personal,
16:02
it gets real.
16:03
it's not even like Frida,
16:04
it's not that I took it personally.
16:06
It's just,
16:07
it gives me a perspective in my head
16:09
where I just don't want her to do
16:10
well.
16:12
Like,
16:13
because I want to interview the people
16:15
that do well.
16:17
And if she's not doing well,
16:18
I don't have to worry about it anymore.
16:19
She's retired now.
16:20
So she's a good example to use.
16:23
Um,
16:28
Terry says, thank you.
16:29
I'm not that interested in Hiller's new
16:31
two-hour stuff just too long.
16:33
I love some of it, though.
16:34
Terry, I got to tell you,
16:36
I really like that he's doing the
16:39
interviews in person.
16:42
To me, that makes a huge, huge difference.
16:46
A huge difference.
16:48
And he's just recently starting this.
16:52
I,
16:53
that made the banter between John and
16:56
Brian much better because they were
16:59
sitting across the table from each other.
17:02
It wasn't done on a zoom meeting.
17:04
It wasn't done through stream yard.
17:07
They were sitting at a table right across
17:09
from each other face to face,
17:12
and they were answering each other's
17:13
questions and accusations.
17:16
That's what made it better.
17:20
Um,
17:21
but I think he just needs like more
17:24
content in that Avenue, uh,
17:26
to make it swing a lot better,
17:29
but it's really, really good.
17:31
And it's really made it.
17:32
So when I'm on the road this year,
17:34
my goal is to sit down with athletes
17:38
and record those interviews as opposed to
17:41
like doing a stream yard version of it
17:44
or quick hitters,
17:45
like actually having a conversation and,
17:48
um and recording those and banking those
17:51
to play throughout the year um jody says
17:58
brooke has no clue she's like a popular
18:00
girl who won't acknowledge the peasants
18:03
i'm sure there's a touch of that i'm
18:05
sure of it um
18:08
She's not the only one that has refused
18:10
me interviews.
18:11
I will say that.
18:13
Just because she's retired,
18:15
she's no longer in the game.
18:17
It was just a safe example to use.
18:22
For sure, they both have strong biases.
18:24
Yes, Craig.
18:25
And when you watch this ranking,
18:29
they actually question each other and why
18:33
they did things.
18:34
And that's where it gets interesting.
18:36
Not necessarily where they put people,
18:38
but why they put them there.
18:47
Love Gabby, but she missed a full year.
18:50
Look how high they placed Gabby.
18:53
I've been saying on this show,
18:54
I think she needs another year to recover.
19:01
Achilles injuries are no joke.
19:04
And coming back from them takes time.
19:06
And I think for her,
19:09
it's going to take some time.
19:11
Now, in a ranking show,
19:13
you get to have that discussion, right?
19:15
Why is she not ranked higher?
19:17
Why is she ranked too high?
19:19
Those are interesting.
19:21
But when you're doing that at ninety and
19:23
eighty seven,
19:24
like the reasons for it are so slight.
19:32
So there it is, right?
19:36
Um,
19:37
the Hiller pod was way better than what
19:38
if I guy listen, that's,
19:42
what's beautiful about this content space.
19:45
There are tons and tons of options that
19:47
we all can listen to, um,
19:50
depending on what we're interested in that
19:52
day.
19:53
And, uh,
19:54
and I love that we have those options.
19:56
Right.
19:58
So the other thing that blew me away
20:01
is right off the top,
20:02
Hiller used some of those clips that I
20:04
just showed you at the beginning of his
20:07
video.
20:08
And he was asked about,
20:11
should we go deeper into this ranking?
20:14
And John actually said the words,
20:17
I agree with the Clydesdale that we
20:19
shouldn't go that far.
20:21
And
20:23
when John gets to say that he agrees
20:25
with me, um,
20:28
that makes me happy because John and I
20:30
don't always agree.
20:32
We agree sometimes,
20:33
but when I hear that he's agreed with
20:35
me on this take made me happy.
20:38
Um,
20:40
Cause I love poking fun at John.
20:42
I love giving John, um, grief.
20:46
Um,
20:46
and I'm sure he loves poking it back,
20:48
but, uh, it,
20:49
it was just really entertaining for me
20:52
when he gave me, uh,
20:54
props at the beginning of, of the,
20:58
the rankings or whatever.
21:06
Um,
21:08
I'm going to be in that camp after
21:09
the shit you gave me on the lightweight
21:12
open.
21:13
Which camp?
21:15
What are you referencing, Larry?
21:21
Joseph says it's sixty percent
21:23
performance, forty percent popularity.
21:26
I don't think that it's that that weighted
21:29
of a bias.
21:30
I would say like eighty twenty seventy
21:33
five twenty five somewhere in that range
21:36
that I think the bias kicks in because
21:38
I think a lot of us do watch
21:40
the sport and we do try to.
21:43
look at the performances and think where
21:45
we think people are going to finish i
21:48
don't think it's it's blind loyalty to
21:51
somebody else but i do think that if
21:53
it comes down to me picking between ariel
21:57
lowen and brooke wells i'm gonna lean
21:59
ariel lowen because she's that's just my
22:02
bias right
22:11
Jody,
22:12
it's so weird it all started with you.
22:13
I don't think it started with me.
22:15
I think it started with Brian saying that
22:17
on Hiller's show.
22:18
And then I reacted to it.
22:20
And just because of my reaction,
22:23
it played well into what Hiller was trying
22:25
to do.
22:33
Rankings are seldom only performance.
22:36
Oh, don't go, Larry.
22:38
I wanted to get into some open talk
22:40
with you.
22:43
I just didn't understand what you were
22:45
referencing in the previous comment.
22:54
Maybe you have a bias against me because
22:56
of what I said about the lightweight.
22:58
I want to make this clear, Larry.
22:59
I want to make this clear.
23:00
Hopefully you're still here.
23:02
I love a heavy open.
23:05
I do way better in a heavy open.
23:08
Me personally, I do much,
23:10
much better in a heavy open.
23:12
I would want what you want,
23:16
but I don't think it's what's best for
23:18
the overall community.
23:20
Do I think they need to be more
23:21
creative?
23:22
Yes.
23:24
I don't think it should be the same
23:25
workout every year.
23:27
But I do think there are levels to
23:30
this thing,
23:31
and the open needs to be accessible for
23:35
a majority of the community to start.
23:38
It doesn't mean it needs to be dumbed
23:40
down and not creative.
23:42
It just needs to be accessible.
23:49
So...
23:51
My heart agrees with you.
23:52
I want heavy.
23:53
I want a shot to lift some weight.
23:56
I want to show that I'm strong.
23:58
I haven't had that opportunity to do that.
24:06
Joseph Ramirez says,
24:06
That would just be hellish.
24:15
Uh,
24:15
the B that beep agent workout guests would
24:18
be sweet.
24:19
No way.
24:19
Is Dave going to take a Hiller workout
24:22
and make it the first workout of the
24:24
open?
24:25
No way in hell.
24:27
No way.
24:34
Uh, David Reed says double grace, please.
24:37
That would be cool.
24:38
That would be cool.
24:41
Um, Freitas's prediction,
24:43
seven minutes of burpees followed by max
24:44
reps of snatch at Randy weight.
24:50
That'd be awesome.
24:51
I just,
24:53
I hope it's a barbell and not a
24:56
dumbbell.
24:57
I think Larry does make a good point.
24:59
If we go dumbbell snatch and burpees
25:02
again, it that's, it's too repetitive.
25:07
We need something different.
25:13
Dave's latest video,
25:14
we're getting a heavy deadlift.
25:17
Deadlift is accessible for everybody.
25:22
I don't think it's the greatest test of
25:23
fitness.
25:24
Depends on what it's paired with, I guess.
25:30
But yeah, I saw the video today.
25:33
He did the cap workout.
25:35
It was a set of heavy deadlifts today.
25:38
So...
25:44
Joseph Ramirez.
25:45
I'd be good with that.
25:48
Train all the burpees over rower.
25:50
I don't, I think if they do that,
25:54
they have to bastardize it.
25:55
And I don't,
25:57
they have to allow the step over.
26:00
And if they allow the step over,
26:01
it just kind of bastardizes it.
26:05
I mean, that's,
26:06
that's a much more significant jump than
26:08
over a bar.
26:11
And for newbie athletes in their first
26:13
year, is that something you want to do?
26:16
I don't know.
26:25
Um, bench in the judge's course.
26:28
Some said I'd be thrilled.
26:30
I'm taking the judge's course this
26:31
weekend.
26:33
Um, so we'll see.
26:34
I heard it's in there.
26:35
I've heard some other things.
26:40
But the bench was in the team series.
26:43
I don't see it making it into the
26:46
open.
26:46
I'd love that,
26:48
but I don't see it happening.
26:56
Kettlebell snatches would be different.
26:57
I don't see them doing kettlebell snatches
26:59
in the open.
27:03
You have to learn how to punch the
27:06
kettlebell at the top so it doesn't break
27:08
your wrist.
27:12
and I'm being a little facetious, but, um,
27:14
but yeah,
27:15
that punch at the top is so important
27:16
on a kettlebell snatch.
27:18
And if you haven't learned that, man,
27:19
that gets painful.
27:24
Uh, uh,
27:26
train olive says maybe allow a step for
27:29
all.
27:29
See, I think that bastardizes it too much.
27:32
Do we want to see a bunch of
27:33
videos of people stepping over the rower?
27:37
Um,
27:39
I guess you could do jump over the
27:41
rower for RX and step over for scaled.
27:47
But again,
27:48
it's just a much more significant jump
27:51
than a bar, but we'll see.
27:55
I know,
27:55
I think Carolyn and Jamie both said that
27:57
they think they would see it in it.
28:05
So there we go.
28:08
What about a seventeen point four redo?
28:10
I don't remember seventeen four, Joseph.
28:12
You'd have to tell me which one that
28:14
is.
28:14
I'm not great with the numbers.
28:17
The only numbers I remember are the ones
28:18
that I hated.
28:23
Yeah, Corey,
28:23
we have time if you want to jump
28:24
in.
28:29
Jody says, yeah,
28:30
I don't do kettlebell snatch.
28:32
I ain't going to the games and I
28:33
need my wrists.
28:34
Kettlebell snatch are one of my favorite
28:36
moves in all of CrossFit.
28:38
The feeling of that pop at the top
28:40
when you get it down is so,
28:43
so much fun.
28:44
I do kettlebell snatches in my garage all
28:46
the time.
28:48
They are one of my favorites.
28:50
Overhead squat, kettlebell snatches,
28:54
love them to death.
28:57
Would love to see it.
28:58
I just don't think we will.
29:04
Asking for trouble jumping over rowers.
29:06
Yeah.
29:08
I agree, Arlene.
29:09
I agree.
29:13
So it was the fifty-fives.
29:14
Gotcha, Joseph.
29:15
Fifty-fives was great.
29:17
The thing about the fifty-fives is you
29:19
think it's easier than it is.
29:21
You're like, fifty-five deadlifts,
29:22
no problem.
29:23
Fifty-five wall balls, no problem.
29:25
You get like ten reps into those wall
29:27
balls and you're like, holy shit,
29:29
I'm dying.
29:31
That was a great one.
29:33
Love the fifty-fives.
29:34
And I think they did it twice.
29:38
It was a repeat as well.
29:41
That was a fun one.
29:50
I didn't even get to the handstand
29:51
push-ups on that one.
29:52
What is up?
29:55
What's up, dude?
29:57
Sorry I'm late.
30:02
You get everything taken care of?
30:04
I did.
30:04
I did.
30:05
I did.
30:06
I absolutely did.
30:07
We actually got a hard copy and a
30:09
digital copy of the police report,
30:11
which is going to play really,
30:13
really well as soon as Jennifer gets it
30:14
back to that girl's or her parents'
30:17
insurance company.
30:18
Because it literally has her statement
30:20
where she says she got over,
30:21
decided to get over,
30:22
did not see my wife and ran smack
30:24
into her.
30:24
So it's kind of the important part.
30:28
So Hillary's in the house.
30:29
Why do we need to go to a
30:30
hundred?
30:30
Why not, Patrick?
30:31
Why not?
30:33
because it gives him a two-hour podcast.
30:37
I don't know if you saw it in
30:38
the beginning, Hiller,
30:39
but my point is the gap between the
30:42
athletes from fifty to a hundred is so
30:45
small, ranking them just seems silly.
30:50
I like the stories.
30:52
I actually like the discussion,
30:54
but I think we could have had the
30:55
discussion minus the ranking, maybe.
31:00
I don't know.
31:01
I listened to the whole thing.
31:02
I actually enjoyed the banter,
31:05
but the ranking was meaningless to me
31:08
until we got down to the top thirty.
31:14
I would say even the top fifty would
31:15
make sense to have a discussion about
31:17
because the twenty outside of the top
31:20
thirty, the next twenty in line,
31:23
are all fighting to get into that top
31:25
thirty.
31:27
I get that.
31:28
I totally get that.
31:29
But those twenty are so close.
31:32
That's what I'm saying.
31:33
Program dependent.
31:34
Correct.
31:35
Yeah, I would agree.
31:36
Program dependent.
31:37
Yep.
31:39
So.
31:42
So anyway, there we go.
31:45
But I did enjoy it.
31:46
I thought the banter back and forth was
31:48
really good.
31:50
And for John to say what two weeks
31:53
ago, I'm never working with Brian Friend.
31:56
Unless Taylor calls.
31:59
And now he does a pod with him.
32:02
I'm never working with Brian Friend unless
32:03
Andrew calls.
32:04
If Andrew calls, then I'll do it.
32:06
I didn't hear the Andrew calls part last
32:08
time.
32:08
No, but that's implied at this point.
32:09
Oh, gotcha.
32:10
That's implied.
32:15
Gotcha, gotcha.
32:17
I haven't had to watch it.
32:18
I saw a chance to watch it.
32:19
I saw it popped up this morning,
32:20
and I was doing three different things
32:23
between listening to –
32:26
um cj and claire and moving on to
32:30
savann for a little bit and then just
32:31
trying to get caught up with actually work
32:35
fun stuff um uh jody says she's sorry
32:41
about your wife's accident that's awful
32:43
appreciate it uh jody she's fine by the
32:46
way everybody uh car's not she is though
32:52
Oh, um,
32:54
Vicki wants to know if Hiller paid JY.
32:57
I don't think Hiller paid JY.
32:58
I think JY jumped at the chance.
33:02
My guess, my guess, but anyway,
33:06
he's got to prove that senior analyst
33:08
status.
33:11
Yeah, I think, uh, yeah,
33:15
I think the ego of PR of proving
33:18
that he is the senior analyst means more
33:21
to him than the cash.
33:23
Absolutely.
33:24
But it may not mean more to him
33:27
than the C-IV.
33:31
I don't blame him.
33:31
There's a twelve pack of it.
33:33
Well,
33:33
about half a twelve pack now sitting right
33:35
over there next to my desk.
33:37
So I've cut way back on the C-IV,
33:39
like way, way, way back, right?
33:42
because of the heart bib stuff, right?
33:46
But I saw that Jolly Rancher flavor,
33:48
and my mouth started watering watching him
33:52
through that whole show.
33:53
What kind of Pavlovian response is that?
33:58
I got the Hawaiian punch right here next
34:01
to my desk, and it is fantastic.
34:03
Yeah.
34:11
um actual work laughing my ass off i
34:14
don't start working until after scott
34:16
finishes i'm glad i have that effect um
34:24
i need to try gorilla mind hearing good
34:27
things it's pretty good they make it uh
34:29
they have some good flavors the uh oh
34:33
which one is it the black cherry vanilla
34:36
is the best one i've tried so far
34:37
mark get you some of that it's pretty
34:39
darn it's pretty darn tasty
34:41
Yeah.
34:43
So, uh,
34:44
I had something here on my list.
34:45
I wanted to ask you,
34:46
it started on the WOD prep podcast this
34:49
morning and it's all about like,
34:53
they were talking about periodization from
34:56
the Hiller Mason startup video and their
34:58
argument over what is varied, what is not,
35:03
uh,
35:04
but it got into running and how people
35:07
hate running.
35:10
When I started CrossFit,
35:12
every workout I did,
35:13
when it came to the run,
35:15
I lost ground on everybody.
35:17
Every single time, right?
35:20
I cycle a barbell fast,
35:22
get ahead of everybody, head out the door,
35:24
and they all like blow by me on
35:26
the run.
35:28
So at some point in like,
35:30
the only way I'm going to stop this
35:32
is just start running like every single
35:35
day.
35:38
And so as much as I hated it,
35:40
as much as I hated it,
35:42
I started running every single day.
35:45
I would, it would be,
35:46
I would get to the gym early and
35:47
I would just go out for,
35:48
and it may only be an a hundred
35:50
meter that day.
35:50
That's all I had time for or whatever,
35:52
but I was going to go run every
35:54
single day on two days a week.
35:57
I did like a couple of miles.
36:00
Those were my long running days just to
36:02
kind of get over the whole thing.
36:04
And at one point,
36:06
like a year into that,
36:09
I got into it and I would get
36:10
into workouts and the run became where I
36:14
like caught my breath.
36:16
Yeah.
36:17
And then it was like, oh,
36:19
I don't like, I don't hate this anymore.
36:21
Like this is the part where I kind
36:23
of get to catch my breath and I'm
36:25
not losing so much ground.
36:28
And in some cases I'm losing no ground.
36:32
And I was like, okay,
36:33
now I don't even hate it.
36:36
Then I started hating other things.
36:38
But with all that,
36:39
then my burpees got better.
36:42
Other things got better.
36:45
And I think it was more,
36:46
it was as much a mindset shift as
36:49
it was the actual physical doing.
36:53
I think the physical doing helped a ton.
36:56
But I think the mindset shift was as
36:58
much an asset to that as everything else.
37:03
And as I'm going through these surgeries
37:05
and starting to feel better,
37:06
I feel that Scott coming back.
37:11
Like, I want to embrace the suck.
37:13
I want to get past the things I
37:15
suck at,
37:16
and I want to build that back.
37:19
Do it anyway.
37:22
Right.
37:24
But it's more than just do it because
37:26
you know you have to.
37:27
It's about embracing it.
37:29
that's what i that's what i was trying
37:30
to get across is that um before i
37:33
started crossfit i was doing a lot of
37:34
running like half marathons five k's ten
37:38
k's all that good i ran a whole
37:41
bunch because that was my my marker for
37:44
fitness i guess you could call it is
37:45
i wanted to get a sub-twenty-one five k
37:48
i wanted to run a sub-forty-five uh ten
37:51
k and uh eventually like a sub hour
37:54
and a half half marathon like that would
37:56
those are those are my milestones
37:59
um and i was just i was a
38:01
decent runner and then more i got into
38:02
crossfit the less i ran right and at
38:05
one point it the whole thing flipped i
38:06
went from being that guy who we had
38:09
running in the workout i was all excited
38:10
and people looking at me like i was
38:11
retarded and it flipped to i don't i
38:17
don't want to do this anymore and here
38:18
just recently
38:20
uh okay i need to get out and
38:22
run i need to i need to why
38:24
because it needs to get done and because
38:26
i don't like it so i need to
38:28
dive head first into it and i'm not
38:31
i'm not saying i'm gonna like it at
38:33
no point i'm gonna turn around and be
38:34
like oh yeah this is fun again because
38:36
it's not it's just not but embrace it
38:40
because it's there it's not going away i
38:43
am a terrible rower
38:46
Brandon would say I'm not because I've
38:49
been making some pretty decent progress,
38:51
but I am not built for rowing.
38:53
Anybody who's ever met me will understand
38:55
just by looking at me for about ten
38:57
seconds is that I am not built to
38:58
row.
38:59
I got stubby legs.
39:00
I got stubby arms.
39:01
I'm all torso, not built to row.
39:05
But I row as if my life depends
39:08
on it so that I can get better
39:10
at it.
39:11
Because the only way to get better at
39:13
it is to actually do it.
39:15
And what I've seen from like doing our,
39:18
our,
39:18
our two K program is that it affects
39:20
everything else.
39:21
Because now that I'm a better rower,
39:24
I can bike better.
39:25
I can run better.
39:26
I've been running,
39:27
which it's all transfers over.
39:30
It all transfers over and you don't have
39:32
to like it.
39:35
You don't have to be that guy who's
39:37
like, oh,
39:37
I get to run a mile for time
39:39
today.
39:41
But you're going to have to do it
39:43
anyway.
39:43
Well,
39:44
what it changes in your daily life too,
39:46
not just in workouts,
39:49
but just your daily life, like,
39:52
running down your,
39:53
your kid in the yard or running after,
39:57
you know, Oh my gosh,
39:58
I'm late for this and I need to
39:59
run.
40:00
Gosh,
40:00
I remember a time like when I was
40:02
doing all this,
40:03
I was on a business trip and I
40:04
wanted to work out at eighth day CrossFit.
40:07
I was in grand Rapids, Michigan.
40:09
Eighth day is always going to the games.
40:11
I wanted to go to their gym,
40:13
signed up for a class.
40:14
My,
40:15
my seminar went late and like I put
40:18
on my shit and I ran and
40:20
Like the four blocks to eighth day
40:22
CrossFit to get there.
40:24
And it was, it was like nothing.
40:26
It was like my warmup for the workout.
40:30
Wild how that works.
40:32
Wild how that works.
40:33
Your dog gets off the leash and he's
40:35
one of those dogs that like,
40:36
once he gets off,
40:37
he's trying to get to freedom.
40:39
Right.
40:39
What are you going to do?
40:41
He's not paying attention to you at that
40:42
point.
40:42
You're going to have to run and chase
40:43
him down.
40:45
The kid thing is like highly,
40:48
highly motivated.
40:49
Right.
40:50
You run around,
40:51
you want to be able to run with
40:52
your kids, to chase your kids, to go.
40:54
My daughter wants to run the bases after
40:56
she gets done with softball practice some
40:59
days.
40:59
Guess who gets nominated for that?
41:01
That would be me.
41:03
We all do it.
41:04
Jennifer does it.
41:06
If Brody's there for her practice,
41:07
for her games or whatnot,
41:08
he'll run with her as well.
41:10
But it's kind of a thing, right?
41:13
It's a natural evolution from walking,
41:16
which everybody does.
41:17
So why wouldn't you run?
41:19
Doesn't matter if you don't.
41:21
Well,
41:21
look at the real world application here.
41:24
Ortega uses it to run away from ice.
41:27
Everyday things.
41:29
There it is.
41:30
It's just part of life.
41:32
It is just part of life.
41:34
Sean in Oregon, don't love running,
41:36
but Glassman said we need to try new
41:37
sports.
41:38
So I use CrossFit to train for trail
41:40
running.
41:41
Have two coming up in March and April.
41:44
I run Tuesday, Thursdays, and Saturdays.
41:48
a ten K and a half marathon,
41:49
which would be the longest distance I've
41:51
ever run.
41:52
Kudos to you.
41:53
I've gone quarter marathon,
41:57
never gone half.
41:59
We, uh,
42:02
Our head coach slash owner Cecil and his
42:04
wife signed up for,
42:06
this was years and years ago,
42:08
but signed up for a half marathon and
42:11
just showed up on race day and ran
42:14
it because they do CrossFit five or six
42:16
days a week.
42:17
Some of that involves running.
42:20
And it's a more mental thing at that
42:21
point is just to keep going.
42:24
Keep putting one foot in front of the
42:25
other.
42:26
It doesn't matter if you're going in,
42:27
you know, that's an old runner nonsense.
42:30
It doesn't matter if you're running a
42:31
fifteen minute mile or a four minute mile.
42:33
Like you're still running if you're out
42:35
there.
42:36
We just keep keep on plodding along.
42:40
And this isn't just running.
42:41
It's whatever you need to get better at.
42:43
That's what you do.
42:44
You embrace.
42:45
Right.
42:45
Yeah.
42:45
It's not just for me.
42:47
It's running.
42:48
For someone else,
42:49
it might be pull-up stamina.
42:51
It may be barbell cycling.
42:53
It may be whatever.
42:57
Frida says,
42:57
I might be biased with running.
42:59
Most of the time during the winter,
43:00
I got to choose between hamster wheel and
43:02
skidding on ice.
43:04
Well, I hate running on ice.
43:07
And actually, running on ice hurts me.
43:09
It makes my stride so short that I
43:13
ache in places I didn't know I could
43:15
ache.
43:16
And so I would choose hamster wheel over
43:21
ice running any day of the week.
43:24
Lucky for me.
43:26
Yeah.
43:26
In a climate that that's not,
43:29
it's eight degrees outside right now.
43:32
As you guys are shaming me into adding
43:34
more runs in.
43:35
Thanks a lot.
43:36
You are welcome.
43:38
As a, uh, no extra charge.
43:43
So you're telling me there's a chance.
43:53
Yeah!
43:53
Like him or not,
43:54
Nick Bear's ability to run a sub-two-forty
43:56
marathon at his size is impressive.
44:02
Ugh,
44:02
you have convinced me I need to run.
44:05
There we go.
44:07
Just go and... Where is my super suit?
44:08
Beautiful thing.
44:18
Yeah, both of those are legitimate.
44:20
Why would you run a nice birch?
44:22
Why?
44:22
My question is how?
44:25
I signed up for a five K on
44:26
New Year's Day.
44:27
My birthday is New Year's Day.
44:29
This was a couple of years ago and
44:31
we got a snowstorm the night before.
44:33
There was literally a tractor with a plow
44:38
making a trail for us on the run.
44:43
I had to go short and choppy strides
44:46
to get through that five K and I
44:48
ached for a week.
44:50
There's an old video, um,
44:53
old clip from a,
44:54
some like man on the street reporting with
44:56
two people out there running like an in
44:58
and running clues.
44:59
And they got the little reflective stuff
45:01
on and ask him about running when it's
45:03
cold and snowy outside.
45:05
And the girl's like, no, it's fine.
45:06
We do it all the time, whatever.
45:08
And she turns around and the camera
45:09
follows her and she takes six steps and
45:11
falls.
45:11
Um,
45:15
It's fantastic.
45:16
Be free to short strides and hope for
45:17
the best.
45:21
I don't run outside if it's too cold,
45:23
period.
45:24
Like if it's cold and breezy, nope.
45:27
You know what we call it in Ohio?
45:30
Wolfs.
45:31
Yeah, just call me whatever you want.
45:33
That's fine.
45:36
I'll take it, dude.
45:37
I am not from somewhere –
45:40
just cold is one thing if it's twenty
45:42
seven degrees outside but there's not
45:44
there's not much wind to speak of I
45:46
will get layered up and I will go
45:47
run but if it's breezy nah bro I'll
45:53
be all right I'll find I'll do I'll
45:54
do I'll do a thousand burpees per time
45:56
before I do that and I'm not exaggerating
45:59
um
46:04
Yeah.
46:05
On another subject,
46:06
let's move on from running.
46:08
CrossFit Oslo announced their finalized
46:11
roster.
46:12
They are the defending CrossFit Games
46:14
champions.
46:16
Kristen Holta is back.
46:19
Thought she was just filling in last year
46:21
as a last-minute replacement.
46:23
Looks like she had so much fun,
46:25
she decided to do it again.
46:27
I mean, winning is fun, Scott.
46:28
Yeah.
46:31
She's going with Tola Morakunio and BKG
46:36
going team.
46:38
It's the time, right?
46:39
It's time for BKG to go team.
46:42
What I just find odd is that he
46:45
owns Reykjavik and now he is competing
46:48
with Oslo.
46:51
That's a hell of a team.
46:54
It is.
46:55
It's just like we talked all last week
46:59
about
47:00
To make CrossFit great again,
47:01
we needed a regional type competition.
47:04
And we needed the teams to be like
47:06
affiliate based.
47:09
This is so counter that,
47:11
that it just is...
47:16
I don't want to say icky.
47:17
It's just not my ideal of what I
47:19
want CrossFit to be.
47:21
You're trying to say BKG is not from
47:23
Norway?
47:24
Well, he's Icelandic.
47:26
He just is.
47:27
He's not even from the country.
47:29
And that's fine.
47:30
The rules are what they are right now,
47:32
and they can do that.
47:34
I just think I like the regionalized...
47:40
with more affiliate-based stuff.
47:42
I think that's how you get affiliates more
47:44
involved.
47:44
I think that's how you grow everything.
47:47
I would agree.
47:49
And while this is a great team and
47:53
they have a great shot at winning again,
47:57
it's not what I want.
48:01
Will I still enjoy them at the games?
48:03
Probably.
48:04
I was about to say,
48:04
it's still going to be fun to watch
48:05
because that is a hell of a team.
48:09
It is.
48:10
It is.
48:11
Like you added BKG because, you know.
48:14
You could.
48:15
You could.
48:16
Yeah.
48:19
Yeah.
48:19
It's pretty awesome.
48:22
It's pretty awesome.
48:23
I would like to see, speaking of that,
48:26
because I would think it's a possibility
48:28
in all Australian super team would be
48:31
pretty easy to do.
48:35
Because they almost had that – they had
48:37
like one odd man out when Kara Saunders
48:41
went.
48:41
Was that two years ago?
48:43
It was Kara and – That was a
48:47
Mayhem team though, right?
48:49
It was,
48:50
but they were all – they were like
48:51
Mayhem Australia or whatever.
48:54
It wasn't by any stretch of the
48:55
imagination that the main Mayhem team.
48:59
Yeah.
48:59
They beat the Noah Chandler team.
49:03
Yep.
49:04
um yeah i why can't i remember who
49:07
it all was but i know what you're
49:08
talking about yeah emily de roy cara
49:14
goodness is it royce or no probably that
49:20
wouldn't that wouldn't surprise me and
49:21
then um what is the man's name anyway
49:28
that was a fun team to watch
49:29
Yeah,
49:30
that's why we're the best in the business,
49:31
man.
49:31
That's why you can't get analyst.
49:34
You can't get Brian friend.
49:36
Yeah, you can't get it.
49:37
You can't get stuff like this anywhere
49:39
else.
49:39
This is only here.
49:41
You know that team with the people doing
49:43
it.
49:43
They had faces.
49:44
They had pretty fit, visible abs,
49:46
you know, hair.
49:48
Most of them.
49:49
Yeah, probably.
49:51
Yeah, that team.
49:51
Exactly.
49:54
All right.
49:54
We have we have numbers from yesterday.
49:58
And then I'll see if we have numbers
49:59
from today as I'm doing this.
50:02
Helping put these out yesterday at twelve
50:05
thirty three hundred thirty three thousand
50:08
three hundred and sixty six.
50:11
People signed up for the open.
50:15
And then I'll see if anything updated is
50:18
usually does it while we're in the show.
50:21
Got it.
50:23
And no.
50:26
You can add one more to it because
50:27
my son's going to get signed up at
50:30
some point probably today or this weekend
50:32
because he was asking me about it last
50:34
night after class.
50:35
Vicky knows we're the best stats guys,
50:37
Scott and the Cowboy.
50:39
Honestly.
50:40
And when you want hard facts,
50:43
we are your men.
50:44
Yeah.
50:46
It's synonymous.
50:47
Our name is synonymous.
50:52
Yeah!
50:56
How many did we have last year?
50:57
That's what I really want to know.
51:01
How many what?
51:02
How many did we have last year?
51:05
You cut out on me a second time.
51:08
How many sign-ups did we get last year?
51:11
It was only a hundred and some thousand.
51:12
We're almost there.
51:15
Okay.
51:16
Let me see if he has that still.
51:19
So at this point last year,
51:21
we were at one hundred and four thousand.
51:24
Twenty point one percent increase over
51:27
last year.
51:31
The overall number,
51:32
I don't know if you put it in
51:34
here or not.
51:36
Yeah, he didn't put it in.
51:40
But I want to say it was under
51:41
two hundred thousand was the total for
51:43
last year.
51:46
And a lot of people wait till last
51:48
minute.
51:51
A lot of people are like,
51:52
I'm going to sign up.
51:52
When?
51:53
When the workout comes out,
51:54
when the first one comes out.
51:57
This is the way people are, man.
51:59
I would never understand that.
52:00
We have one week to go.
52:02
Within the hour that registration went up,
52:06
I'd signed up.
52:09
Yeah.
52:11
Because here's the thing.
52:12
I'll forget.
52:14
If I don't do it, I'll be like,
52:16
I've been meaning to take the judge's
52:17
course for three weeks now.
52:18
I still have yet to do it.
52:21
Yeah, I've got mine purchased.
52:22
I just have to do it this weekend.
52:26
Because I got judge at my gym every
52:27
single year.
52:30
Claire jumps in late.
52:33
She missed our whole conversation about
52:35
what she did to inspire me to have
52:36
a conversation about running.
52:38
Yeah.
52:42
But she runs a mile every single day,
52:44
which I find super inspiring and really...
52:51
Yeah, to do that no matter what weather,
52:53
what is at you, where you're traveling to,
52:55
where you're traveling from.
52:59
And I liked how she explained it this
53:00
morning that it just makes her day better.
53:03
And when I was doing the running five
53:05
days a week,
53:06
it really set up the rest of my
53:09
day, week, whatever.
53:10
Yeah, absolutely.
53:12
And I mean, look, even if you run,
53:15
if you average a twelve minute mile,
53:18
it's twelve minutes out of your entire
53:20
day.
53:21
Yeah.
53:22
Now I'm,
53:23
this is somebody saying that that does not
53:25
run a mile a day,
53:26
but if I were to set that upon
53:29
myself, it's not gonna take that long.
53:32
It's even if I run super slow,
53:34
that is ten minutes from our gym,
53:38
from the gym door, stop sign,
53:40
stop sign back to gym door is one
53:42
mile, ten minutes, boom, done.
53:45
It's already in you accomplish something
53:46
for the day.
53:47
Hey, if you did nothing else,
53:48
you ran a mile today.
53:51
Yeah.
53:53
A good owner, dude.
53:54
Good owner.
53:55
I am not that.
53:58
So, you know, you know,
53:59
what's great is we have a chat that
54:01
knows more stats than we do.
54:04
Yeah.
54:04
And that's why we have Joseph who can
54:06
go find us the stats.
54:08
Two thousand twenty five at two hundred
54:10
and thirty three thousand eight hundred
54:11
and fifteen signups down from three
54:14
hundred and forty three thousand four
54:15
hundred ninety six and twenty twenty four.
54:18
I think the realistic goal that everybody
54:20
is looking at is.
54:21
Right.
54:25
Um, is where we are trending right now.
54:31
Um,
54:32
and I think that's the most realistic
54:34
that's coming out of COVID that was
54:36
recovering from a,
54:38
from Greg selling the company from the
54:40
COVID thing,
54:42
all of that recovering from that.
54:43
And we started to build,
54:45
then we had the death at the games
54:47
and then it tanked again.
54:48
And now we're on that uphill swing again.
54:52
We just need to have a clean couple
54:54
years to see where this truly can go.
54:58
hundred percent we have a couple years
55:00
where nothing crazy happens and like it's
55:05
just steady on growth the positivity
55:08
that's building it just needs to keep
55:10
rolling and keep rolling keep rolling i'm
55:12
gonna tell you this dude my gym in
55:15
particular we have had we had two more
55:19
people sign up for memberships just last
55:22
week
55:24
They did an on-ramp actually earlier this
55:26
week and been in big church since then.
55:31
And on top of the other one, two,
55:33
three, four,
55:34
probably ten or twelve people that signed
55:37
up since the first of the year and
55:39
have been coming.
55:40
Like not just I signed a membership and
55:42
then, you know,
55:43
I'm paying you all this money and like
55:45
they are actually attending class.
55:47
That's a good sign for me to say
55:49
that people are still looking at it.
55:51
We got CrossFit on the sign.
55:52
Can't miss it.
55:53
Like I want to go do that.
55:57
Everyone in this chat better have signed
55:58
up, says Vicky.
56:01
Do you know who else is doing some
56:04

56:41
What better way to do it
56:43
than with some Thirteen.
56:45
I can't think of a better word.
56:47
It doesn't have that melatonin hangover.
56:49
It doesn't have any of the crap in
56:51
it.
56:51
It is tested.
56:53
Athletes can use it,
56:54
not worried about testing positive for
56:56
anything.
56:57
It has the protein collagen in there,
57:00
grass-fed, that help you recover better.
57:06
And so with all that,
57:07
just go to Thirteen.com backslash Jazzy.
57:16
um if you do this at check out
57:18
yeah if you uh uh had four hundred
57:24
and fifteen thousand participants did it
57:30
though i that doesn't i thought twenty
57:33
eighteen with three hundred something was
57:35
like peak uh
57:45
So,
57:46
Vicky was asking Claire to go live with
57:48
her run so people could run with her.
57:51
Claire's response is that she snags the
57:53
mile at most random times based on the
57:55
day's schedule.
57:56
That would be tough to coordinate with any
57:58
consistency,
57:59
but it would be fun to play something
58:01
IRL at events when possible in real life.
58:05
Getting good.
58:06
Oh, you're learning.
58:07
Good man.
58:08
Getting better.
58:10
Yeah.
58:11
After my daughter moved out, man,
58:13
trying to keep up with all the, uh,
58:15
it's a lot.
58:16
Yeah.
58:18
So yeah, it's going to be fun.
58:23
Well, I think that's it for today.
58:26
We've got USA going hockey semifinal
58:30
today.
58:30
Um, I will not be here on Monday.
58:36
I'll be here Sunday night, no show Monday,
58:39
lung biopsy to hopefully be the last piece
58:43
of the puzzle to get me back to
58:46
fully Scott again.
58:48
Let's go.
58:49
Um,
58:51
So hopefully, hopefully that all,
58:53
it turns out to be good on Monday.
58:56
I'll probably get the results later in the
58:58
week.
58:58
So we'll update you as to whether I
59:00
can be on for lunch at that point.
59:03
But I don't have the follow-up scheduled
59:04
yet to know.
59:07
But yeah,
59:07
I have that first thing in the morning
59:08
Monday.
59:10
And then they're putting me under for this
59:14
biopsy.
59:15
So I'll be all like sleepy all day
59:19
Monday.
59:19
And then we'll be back Tuesday.
59:22
fresh and better than ever oh yeah uh
59:25
thank you very much vicky for that i
59:27
feel the nose surgery was a tremendous
59:30
success so so much better i know i've
59:35
told you this before and other people have
59:36
too but the difference in quality of your
59:40
voice
59:43
Since surgery, it's not even the same guy.
59:47
I go back and listen to older shows
59:48
compared to what is happening now.
59:51
Even my boss, when I'm on meetings,
59:52
they're like, man,
59:53
you sound like a totally different person.
59:55
In a good way.
59:59
It has been really life-changing.
1:00:02
I couldn't believe how bad it was.
1:00:03
You just think about it.
1:00:04
Three and a half hour surgery to clean
1:00:06
out my sinuses.
1:00:09
There was a lot of bad choo-choo up
1:00:11
there.
1:00:13
And we're glad all that's gone.
1:00:16
And even like when I blow my nose
1:00:17
now, like nothing big comes out,
1:00:21
which is pretty nice.
1:00:23
Whole different person.
1:00:25
Whole different person.
1:00:26
And now we just get the lungs fixed
1:00:29
and then I'll be like burping all over
1:00:30
the place.
1:00:32
Let's make it happen.
1:00:33
I'm down for that.
1:00:35
Frida says, yeah,
1:00:36
your voice is way cleaner.
1:00:39
My throat dries out more now,
1:00:41
but other than that, like, it's good.
1:00:46
Just got to stay hydrated, brother, man.
1:00:47
That's it.
