- 0:34What is going on, everybody?
- 0:36It is lunchtime.
- 0:38Time to take some rest from your workday.
- 0:40Come hang out with us.
- 0:42Talk about everything that's
- 0:43going on in sports
- 0:44entertainment and the
- 0:45CrossFit space specifically.
- 0:47And damn,
- 0:48did we get hit with some breaking
- 0:51news right before we went on air.
- 0:54As it's being talked about in the chat,
- 0:57if you go on Instagram,
- 0:59Alex Kazan posted some
- 1:00pictures and video from
- 1:03what appears to be a brutal
- 1:05car accident in where she broke her leg.
- 1:11It says a small fracture in her fibula.
- 1:13Yeah.
- 1:16There's also pictures of her husband, Jake,
- 1:19in a neck collar.
- 1:20Yeah.
- 1:22they are both currently out
- 1:23of the hospital and they
- 1:25are home recovering we wish
- 1:27them all the good things
- 1:29all the prayers all the
- 1:30wishes all the thoughts um
- 1:33for a speedy recovery but
- 1:36dang how it's wednesday
- 1:42like they were just in just in in norco
- 1:46over the weekend.
- 1:48So if I'm assuming which I
- 1:50obviously don't know,
- 1:51but left from NorCal,
- 1:54take a little vacation, right,
- 1:55just finished the competition,
- 1:56take a couple days off, whatever.
- 1:58And then that happens.
- 2:00Whatever it is, it looks terrible.
- 2:02Like, I mean,
- 2:03there's a giant hole in the
- 2:05passenger side,
- 2:06right where Alex is sitting, apparently.
- 2:09in the roof glass everywhere and whatnot.
- 2:12So yeah, she, they're extremely lucky,
- 2:16extremely lucky, blessed,
- 2:18whatever you want to call it.
- 2:19That that's bananas, dude.
- 2:22So I've,
- 2:24I've gotten to know them a long time, uh,
- 2:27net for a long time now.
- 2:29Um,
- 2:29Jake worked for us at the CrossFit
- 2:30games two years ago as a photographer,
- 2:33videographer.
- 2:34Um,
- 2:36they do not live together
- 2:38for a period of the year
- 2:39because jake's job is um
- 2:42fire prevention in
- 2:44california wildfire
- 2:45prevention so he goes and
- 2:47does that for like six
- 2:48months a year and then they
- 2:50live together the other six
- 2:51months but during that time
- 2:52they're apart that is this
- 2:54time of the year where they
- 2:55are not together so when
- 2:57norcal was done they were
- 2:58taking some time together
- 2:59they have a camper pickup truck
- 3:02Very much like the Dolmets have.
- 3:05And they,
- 3:06if you followed their Instagram
- 3:07at all this week,
- 3:07they were out on the beach,
- 3:09like just chilling in their camper,
- 3:11doing the things, you know,
- 3:14Alex is a land lover, hippie at,
- 3:18at heart.
- 3:19They were doing all of those
- 3:20like camping things that are,
- 3:24that are upper alley.
- 3:26And apparently something happened.
- 3:28While traveling from place
- 3:30to place and man looked the
- 3:34video footage at the very
- 3:35end of her Instagram post looks awful.
- 3:38Yeah.
- 3:41But hopefully she's okay.
- 3:44She does say it's a small
- 3:46fracture of her fibula and
- 3:49we'll see what happens.
- 3:51I see the comments asking,
- 3:52would Carolyn get her invite now?
- 3:55if she could not go to the
- 3:57crossfit games that invite
- 3:59would go to carolyn by rule
- 4:02but she is twenty two years
- 4:05old twenty three years old
- 4:08bones heal six weeks or
- 4:09less we have what eight
- 4:12weeks to the crossfit games
- 4:14ish something like that
- 4:19could she make it to the
- 4:19crossfit games she could
- 4:24How much training can she
- 4:25get in without a
- 4:27weight-bearing leg injury?
- 4:29I don't know.
- 4:32We don't even know what the
- 4:33extent of it all is, right?
- 4:35Right.
- 4:37How much is Cutler going to let her do?
- 4:44You know what I mean?
- 4:46Knowing that there's a
- 4:47fracture right there.
- 4:48Because he is way more
- 4:51interested in long game
- 4:52than he is in right this very second.
- 4:54Or I feel like he is anyway.
- 4:56So, Justin's my boy.
- 4:59With her potential, he's what it is.
- 5:01Justin's my boy.
- 5:02And this is,
- 5:03it's weird where your head
- 5:04goes in these situations.
- 5:07He had Ricky set up to win the games.
- 5:11And Ricky flies over some handlebars,
- 5:13jacks up his shoulder,
- 5:14and cannot participate in the games.
- 5:17Alex was having the season.
- 5:22The season.
- 5:26And two days after she
- 5:28qualifies for the games, bam,
- 5:33we have a car accident.
- 5:36Justin get a break as a coach.
- 5:41How unlucky is that?
- 5:46I can't wrap my head around it.
- 5:49You think of these people as
- 5:51being practically
- 5:52indestructible from all the
- 5:53things that you see them do all the time.
- 5:54And then that kind of stuff
- 5:56just reminds you that they
- 5:57are still people.
- 6:00And unfortunately,
- 6:01as much as we don't like to admit it,
- 6:02shit happens.
- 6:04And that is a perfect example of that,
- 6:06because I am willing to bet
- 6:07they were not doing anything crazy.
- 6:09Like they're not driving like maniacs,
- 6:12you know,
- 6:13doing Dukes of Hazzard type shit.
- 6:14It looks like they were just
- 6:15driving along the road and
- 6:17then whatever happened happened.
- 6:19And if you know them,
- 6:21they're just not that type
- 6:22of person to do Dukes of Hazzard stuff,
- 6:25right?
- 6:26Probably a reference only you, me,
- 6:29and Doug Reed know.
- 6:33But they're not that type of people.
- 6:37But I'm just gutted for them like that.
- 6:45Alex is one of my favorites, man,
- 6:48on the female side.
- 6:49Like, she's a lot of fun to watch.
- 6:53Her smile is infectious.
- 6:55Her energy is, like,
- 6:57off the charts nine times out of ten.
- 7:00So, yeah, I hope she recovers.
- 7:04Selfishly, hey, I like Caroline.
- 7:09Um,
- 7:09but I don't think I would even say that.
- 7:13I don't think Caroline would
- 7:14want to accept an invite
- 7:16under these circumstances.
- 7:18You know what I'm saying?
- 7:19Like, because of car accident,
- 7:21like if she wanted cool,
- 7:23if somebody popped for drug tests,
- 7:24that's one thing,
- 7:25but I don't think Caroline
- 7:27would want it because
- 7:28somebody can't go because
- 7:29they got in a car wreck and, you know,
- 7:31got themselves hurt.
- 7:33I wouldn't, I would feel.
- 7:36I agree she wouldn't want it
- 7:37to happen that way yeah but
- 7:39I'm telling you if she gets
- 7:40if they call yeah no
- 7:42absolutely dude I'd be the
- 7:45same way like like would I
- 7:47feel bad about it yes am I
- 7:49still taking it absolutely
- 7:52absolutely no question
- 7:53about it you will still
- 7:54find me there after talking
- 7:55to carolyn this week thirty
- 7:57seconds more on that clock
- 7:58she's hitting that that clean
- 8:00Like her max is two fifty five.
- 8:02So two, two and a quarter, two fifteen,
- 8:04whatever it ended up on that bar.
- 8:06I don't even know at this point.
- 8:09Like she was going to hit it
- 8:10with just with a good setup.
- 8:11Yeah.
- 8:12She told me she hits two
- 8:13twenty five in her sleep.
- 8:18But I wish we would have had
- 8:21that opportunity to see it finish.
- 8:23Comes down to the wire, man.
- 8:25Comes down to the wire.
- 8:27If with some rest could have hit it.
- 8:29So we don't know.
- 8:29She may have taken longer to
- 8:31set up if she would have
- 8:31known she had more time.
- 8:33So we don't know like how
- 8:34any of that plays out.
- 8:35And we were just cheated for that end.
- 8:37I didn't mean to dive back
- 8:39into that right now, but.
- 8:42well wishes everything for
- 8:43the Gazan family again Jake
- 8:46worked for me two years ago
- 8:47at the games could not ask
- 8:49for a better dude to hang
- 8:52out with and I really got
- 8:55to know I knew Alex before
- 8:57got to know her much better
- 8:58because she was hanging out
- 8:58with Jake during her
- 9:00downtime and that's the
- 9:03year we followed her at the
- 9:04games that year I remember that
- 9:07they are freaking awesome
- 9:08people and I do think she
- 9:12will one day win the
- 9:14crossfit games and I think
- 9:16she was having the year
- 9:19even if t is there I think
- 9:21she is now to the point
- 9:23where she can go toe-to-toe
- 9:24with her on some things
- 9:27yeah and maybe enough of it
- 9:29to make a difference
- 9:30And enough to like test into,
- 9:34to have the ability to test
- 9:35herself against Tia would be really cool.
- 9:39Yeah.
- 9:40I think that's what any high
- 9:41level athlete wants.
- 9:42Like I want to go against when,
- 9:45when Matt Fraser said on
- 9:47one of the old documentaries, like,
- 9:49I hope you're having,
- 9:50I hope you're in good shape.
- 9:52I hope you are.
- 9:53Cause I want a good race.
- 9:55Like I don't want same.
- 9:56And I feel like most high
- 9:58level athletes kind of feel
- 9:59stuff like that.
- 10:01Judy Reed,
- 10:01DBE putting a hex on Justin Athletes.
- 10:08I think some of that.
- 10:09I think they're past some of that.
- 10:10Yeah, I'd be willing to say.
- 10:13Justin doesn't seem like the
- 10:14type to hold on to that kind of stuff.
- 10:17That doesn't serve anybody.
- 10:18It doesn't serve a purpose for anybody.
- 10:24Yeah, so if you're just joining us,
- 10:25Alex Kazan in a car accident,
- 10:28her and Jake both taken to the hospital.
- 10:30Both are out of the hospital
- 10:31now recovering,
- 10:33but Alex does have a broken leg.
- 10:36She says it's a small fracture.
- 10:38So I don't know what that means,
- 10:39small fracture.
- 10:40Is it a hairline fracture?
- 10:42All of that is dependent on
- 10:44how long it's going to take to recover.
- 10:46depending on what that
- 10:47definition turns out to be
- 10:50and um and she's recovering
- 10:53and she says she can't wait
- 10:54to get back to doing what
- 10:55she loves the most so with
- 10:58that we'll see where that
- 11:00takes us we'll see what
- 11:01that means for her crossfit
- 11:02games ticket um hopefully
- 11:05in the next couple weeks um
- 11:09And the cast in the picture
- 11:10didn't look like a big,
- 11:12thick plaster cast either.
- 11:15So it almost looked more
- 11:18like gauze where she may
- 11:21have had the glass.
- 11:23I was going to say the same thing.
- 11:25It looked more like bandages
- 11:26than it did anything else.
- 11:27Yeah.
- 11:28So I don't know what that means.
- 11:30And hopefully we'll find
- 11:32something out in the near future.
- 11:36I mean,
- 11:36I feel like they're pretty
- 11:37transparent when it comes
- 11:38to stuff like that.
- 11:38Like, and why wouldn't you being, I mean,
- 11:40you got in a car wreck.
- 11:41It's not like you had a
- 11:42training injury and you
- 11:43don't want to tell people
- 11:44because you don't want to
- 11:45like you got in a car accident.
- 11:48So why wouldn't you be like, Oh no, no,
- 11:49I'm fine or not fine or
- 11:51whatever the case may be.
- 11:52Well, one of the,
- 11:55one of the things I had on
- 11:56my list to talk about today
- 11:57was I feel like with all
- 11:59the craziness that happened at NorCal,
- 12:01we didn't give the winners their flowers.
- 12:03Not at all.
- 12:06And so I wanted to come on
- 12:08the show today and give
- 12:10Alex her due because it was
- 12:13a dominating performance.
- 12:15And I know I've made
- 12:16statements this week that I
- 12:18don't think it should,
- 12:19that NorCal should be a
- 12:20qualifying event the way it
- 12:22was carried off.
- 12:23But even with all of that
- 12:25stuff that happened at NorCal, Alex,
- 12:30dominated and showed that
- 12:32her mental aptitude has
- 12:34changed dramatically where
- 12:36she can handle all of that
- 12:37stuff and still go out and perform.
- 12:40And I think that's even more
- 12:41important on the men's side
- 12:43where William Leahy,
- 12:45who has been ridiculed for
- 12:47his lack of mental
- 12:51preparedness and things like that.
- 12:55He,
- 12:56took this opportunity to win,
- 12:58win convincingly during a
- 13:01strange situation and
- 13:04pretty much one handedly.
- 13:05And he deserves a huge amount of kudos.
- 13:08And I know, you know, him personally.
- 13:10So I'll let you talk.
- 13:11It was a good dude, man.
- 13:12So I think a lot of what
- 13:14Bill's problem was,
- 13:15as far as that part is concerned, like,
- 13:16you know,
- 13:17people saying he didn't execute
- 13:19at semi right up until his,
- 13:20he blew his Achilles out and whatnot on,
- 13:22you know,
- 13:23You know, when he did crash,
- 13:25what was that?
- 13:26Not this past year, but year before last,
- 13:27same thing.
- 13:28He doesn't have a lot of
- 13:29competition experience.
- 13:31People don't realize that.
- 13:33But, like, he is very, very young.
- 13:35He started doing CrossFit, like, after,
- 13:38you know, playing high school sports,
- 13:40being a basketball, basically, phenom,
- 13:43superstar type deal, you know.
- 13:47He doesn't have a whole lot
- 13:47of CrossFit competition experience,
- 13:50a lot of experience on the floor.
- 13:52So what I've learned over my
- 13:56very many competitions at this point,
- 13:57you got to kind of roll
- 13:58with whatever's happening.
- 14:00You have to kind of be aware
- 14:01of what's going on around you,
- 14:02what's going on inside your body,
- 14:04what you can do,
- 14:04what you can't do at that
- 14:05moment and learn how to
- 14:07just kind of roll through it.
- 14:08And he's still that's still
- 14:10happening for him.
- 14:11Right.
- 14:13So all of the Jody's thumbnail,
- 14:20all of the things that
- 14:25that's been building, you know,
- 14:26and in him rebuilding his
- 14:27Achilles after blowing it
- 14:30out last year and having
- 14:31surgery like that in and of
- 14:32itself is like a miraculous event.
- 14:37For him to come out, show up,
- 14:39and like you said, I mean,
- 14:41he was far and away the
- 14:43best person there all weekend,
- 14:45and he's just going to get better.
- 14:48I mean, bottom line.
- 14:48Don't worry that he drops
- 14:49from the top on rope climbs.
- 14:52That's a youth in probably
- 14:56just a used to it thing.
- 14:57I mean, the dude can, he can still dunk.
- 15:01So like he's used to being
- 15:02up that high and just
- 15:03dropping and cutting loose.
- 15:04And we'll just see what
- 15:05happens when it gets to the bottom.
- 15:06Look, I'm the same way, dude.
- 15:08I don't,
- 15:09I did legless rope climbs yesterday,
- 15:11Scott.
- 15:11And I am, when I get to the top, I touch,
- 15:14lock my feet back in, slide,
- 15:17probably cut loose twice before I cut,
- 15:19before I come down from the
- 15:20top of the roof.
- 15:21Like I'm not,
- 15:22That's insane to me.
- 15:28Yeah.
- 15:28Jody Lynn, OMG,
- 15:30laughing so hard at the thumbnail late,
- 15:31but I'm here.
- 15:33Yeah.
- 15:35Took me a couple attempts
- 15:37with some AI to combine a
- 15:39picture of Corey and I into
- 15:41the Step Brothers movie poster.
- 15:45It's my wife's second
- 15:48favorite movie of all time.
- 15:49Her favorite is Dumb and Dumber.
- 15:51But I showed it to her.
- 15:53When you sent it to me,
- 15:54I was pulling it in the garage.
- 15:55And I'm sitting there looking,
- 15:56and I'm laughing, dude, like so hard.
- 15:58And I walk in the door,
- 15:59and I just had it up.
- 16:01And she said, what are you laughing at?
- 16:02And I said, come here.
- 16:04I said, the Wednesday show I do with Scott,
- 16:07yeah, we make a thumbnail, go on Twitter.
- 16:10I said, check it out.
- 16:11We had just watched Step Brothers,
- 16:13like the night, literally not last night,
- 16:16night before last.
- 16:20She looked at it, she said, what in the AI,
- 16:23what in the AI hell is this?
- 16:26I said, I don't know.
- 16:27I think it looks pretty good.
- 16:29Next week,
- 16:30I have to try to get it to do a
- 16:31Dumb and Dumber movie poster.
- 16:36You might get a call or a
- 16:37text from my wife.
- 16:38It's entirely possible.
- 16:43It's so good, Scott.
- 16:44It's so funny.
- 16:45I'm not deleting that
- 16:47picture because it came out so well.
- 16:54Kaya, oh my God, just checked Alex's post.
- 16:57Hopefully she is fine soon.
- 17:01Very scary post.
- 17:05So yeah, so before we leave this,
- 17:08huge congratulations to
- 17:09both Alex and Bill for such
- 17:12a dominating performance in utter chaos.
- 17:15Yeah.
- 17:17They both seemed relaxed.
- 17:19They both seemed like they
- 17:21had everything in control
- 17:23the entire weekend and
- 17:25everything went super well for them.
- 17:28And again,
- 17:31that alone has to give Bill confidence.
- 17:34Absolutely.
- 17:36Absolutely.
- 17:37Absolutely.
- 17:39I mean, I would think so.
- 17:40Speaking of Bill,
- 17:41what he was known for
- 17:42before this weekend was
- 17:44maybe not following
- 17:45directions correctly on a
- 17:47score sheet or a workout description.
- 17:51And that brings us to Corey.
- 17:53And I'm wondering if it's
- 17:54just the Cajun language and
- 17:58there's a barrier.
- 17:59Do we need to get a better
- 18:00Google Translate from the
- 18:02directions to...
- 18:06The the workout.
- 18:07So you did the the MFC qualifiers.
- 18:11You finished in the top
- 18:12twenty to go elite this year,
- 18:16which was a huge goal of yours.
- 18:18And then you get an email
- 18:20saying they want to make a
- 18:21scoring adjustment for your
- 18:23handstand pushups.
- 18:24And why do they want to make
- 18:26a scoring adjustment for
- 18:27your handstand pushups?
- 18:28Because I did them to a butt
- 18:30pad and not to the floor.
- 18:34That's it.
- 18:35That's full stop.
- 18:36It's not because I didn't
- 18:38come to full extension.
- 18:39It's not because my feet
- 18:42weren't this wide or anything else.
- 18:44It's because I had a
- 18:47three-quarter inch butt pad
- 18:48that probably compresses
- 18:50down to less than a quarter
- 18:51of an inch by the time my
- 18:52one hundred and ninety
- 18:53pounds worth of body is
- 18:55sitting all the way into it.
- 18:58And I get it.
- 19:01I email back and forth with them.
- 19:04So I got it Saturday, which, first of all,
- 19:08I want to give them their
- 19:09props for actually watching
- 19:11all of these videos because
- 19:14these qualifiers have been
- 19:15done for a while now,
- 19:19like at the beginning of May.
- 19:21And before you go further,
- 19:22when you say butt pad,
- 19:23it's actually a gardening
- 19:24pad that old ladies use to
- 19:28kneel down on when they're gardening.
- 19:30CrossFit gyms usually buy
- 19:32them as an extra padding to
- 19:34put on underneath the head
- 19:36or whatever in the gym.
- 19:38It does compress very small,
- 19:40but the rules do state that
- 19:42your head and hands have to be even.
- 19:45Right.
- 19:46And look, and to their credit,
- 19:49I missed that completely, obviously.
- 19:52Anytime I've done handstand pushups,
- 19:55whether it be for a workout, honestly,
- 19:57probably for qualifiers before,
- 19:59for the open that we've had them,
- 20:02we've thrown a mud pad down
- 20:03because stall mats hurt.
- 20:05Bottom line,
- 20:06beating head against the ground.
- 20:07I know, Andrew, don't start.
- 20:11So this, this,
- 20:12I'm going to get into it
- 20:13here in a second.
- 20:14So I didn't think twice about,
- 20:15I honestly did not.
- 20:17I was getting set up when
- 20:21it's not compressed.
- 20:22Yes, absolutely.
- 20:23Jeff.
- 20:24Um,
- 20:25I didn't think twice, twice about it.
- 20:27I threw it down.
- 20:27It was six wall facing
- 20:29handstand pushups at a time.
- 20:31So it was fifty foot lunge,
- 20:33six wall facing handstand pushups.
- 20:37I forget how many box jump
- 20:38overs and then six bar muscle ups,
- 20:40four rounds.
- 20:40So grand total of twenty
- 20:42four wall facing handstand pushups.
- 20:45Got to think saying that, hey, you know,
- 20:48we noticed in regularity,
- 20:49whatever you want to call it,
- 20:50whatever you use the pad.
- 20:56We'll talk about that in a second.
- 20:58Use the pad.
- 20:59So much bounce from those pads.
- 21:01Yeah, so much, a hundred percent.
- 21:03It's like they're basically
- 21:04like jumping on a trampoline.
- 21:07What took me aback,
- 21:10I guess you could say startled me,
- 21:12was that they adjusted my
- 21:15score according to the
- 21:16email that I got from nine
- 21:18forty eight to eleven fifty.
- 21:23which you ain't got to worry
- 21:24about doing the math
- 21:24because I did it myself,
- 21:25is a two-minute and two-second penalty.
- 21:28It said that because I used the pad,
- 21:31none of my handstand push-ups counted,
- 21:32and we adjusted your score
- 21:34from nine-forty-eight to eleven-fifty,
- 21:37which is two minutes and two seconds.
- 21:41And it took me a solid day
- 21:42and a half to process that
- 21:44to where when I did email him about it,
- 21:47I didn't just say a whole
- 21:48bunch of words that we try
- 21:51to avoid on this show so we
- 21:52don't get demonetized.
- 21:55And I finally, Monday,
- 21:57I emailed scoring and I said,
- 22:00I said it to you, Scott,
- 22:03you said it was well stated.
- 22:06Basically that while I
- 22:08understand that I – no, not two seconds.
- 22:12Yeah, it would have been, Jeff.
- 22:14So two minutes, twenty-four,
- 22:16about five or so, something like that.
- 22:20No,
- 22:21that's not even – it's more than – it
- 22:22would have been more than that.
- 22:24So it's twenty-four reps.
- 22:25I don't know what
- 22:26twenty-four times five is.
- 22:28Math is hard.
- 22:29Math is hard.
- 22:31So basically saying that I –
- 22:35You know,
- 22:35none of my handstand pushups kind.
- 22:36So I said,
- 22:37I sent him a video of the mat that I used
- 22:40like showing my hand
- 22:42compressed all the way down into it,
- 22:43et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
- 22:45Um, and said, look, I understand.
- 22:47I'm not saying I don't deserve a penalty.
- 22:49I'm just saying that the
- 22:50penalty that y'all says
- 22:51seems fairly harsh.
- 22:53Um,
- 22:54understand I hold y'all in the highest
- 22:55regards.
- 22:55I am super glad that y'all
- 22:57are actually looking at all
- 22:58of these videos.
- 22:59So that's cool.
- 23:00Um,
- 23:00because I don't feel like a lot of people,
- 23:02like,
- 23:02I feel like I record a lot of
- 23:03qualifier videos for people
- 23:04not to look at them.
- 23:07Um,
- 23:08So I get an email back
- 23:11Monday night saying that, you know,
- 23:15we sent it to the head judge, et cetera,
- 23:17et cetera.
- 23:19And she agrees that
- 23:22basically what I said that
- 23:23probably didn't gain a
- 23:24whole lot competitive advantage.
- 23:25But the point is that I was
- 23:27not on the same level as my
- 23:28hands in my head.
- 23:30So they can't count.
- 23:31And that's fine.
- 23:33I am perfectly fine with the
- 23:34fact that I was going to get a penalty.
- 23:37so what I emailed her back
- 23:40saying was that okay can we
- 23:41talk about how we got to
- 23:42two minutes and two seconds
- 23:45for twenty four reps
- 23:46because that seems kind of
- 23:49wild to me like it was four
- 23:51rounds three of the rounds
- 23:52I did the handstand
- 23:53push-ups unbroken the last
- 23:55round I did them four and
- 23:56two that's not two two
- 23:58minutes and two seconds
- 23:59like cool give me a penalty
- 24:01I deserve a penalty but
- 24:03probably not two minutes
- 24:04and two seconds worth
- 24:07I therefore got another email back saying,
- 24:10well,
- 24:10that's not what your actual penalty is.
- 24:12Your penalty,
- 24:12like we changed your score
- 24:14from nine forty to ten thirty.
- 24:15And I went, well,
- 24:17that's not what the email I got said.
- 24:20That part.
- 24:23And I understand they got a
- 24:25big they got a big group,
- 24:26they got a whole lot of
- 24:26stuff going on and whatnot,
- 24:28but they took the entire
- 24:30qualifier off of competition corner.
- 24:33So you can't see any of it right now.
- 24:35You can't like I couldn't go
- 24:37back and check to see where
- 24:38I missed it on the standards.
- 24:39I can't go back and see what
- 24:40my score was as opposed to
- 24:42what it is and what it's
- 24:42going to do to me and whatnot.
- 24:44They took the whole darn thing now.
- 24:47So when they send this email
- 24:49out and I get it and it
- 24:50says that I got a two
- 24:51minute and two second
- 24:52penalty and I'm going, really?
- 24:54And I want to see what other people got.
- 24:58You know, because.
- 25:01That seems kind of crazy.
- 25:02And then the lady tells me, no, no, no.
- 25:05Your score is actually ten
- 25:06minutes and thirty seconds now,
- 25:08not nine forty.
- 25:10Like the email that she said,
- 25:11I'm looking at the leaderboard.
- 25:13It's fixed.
- 25:13It's right on here.
- 25:14Just the email that got sent
- 25:15to you was wrong.
- 25:17And I'm like, well,
- 25:18that's like I'm over here
- 25:20about to have a heart
- 25:21attack because of that.
- 25:24And I'm like, you know, whatever it's done,
- 25:27it's over with.
- 25:29So Andrew says often when
- 25:30the number of no reps
- 25:31exceeds a certain number,
- 25:32they give a percent penalty,
- 25:34not doing the math right now.
- 25:37They, she told me it was two seconds per.
- 25:40So none of my handstand pushups kind of,
- 25:41because I did them to the
- 25:42pad and she told me I got a,
- 25:44a two seconds per rep
- 25:48penalty for all of them.
- 25:50So that math actually, yeah.
- 25:52And,
- 25:55That's fair.
- 25:56That's way better than two
- 25:58minutes and two seconds
- 25:59because that's not discrediting.
- 26:02That's almost taking an
- 26:03entire round away from it.
- 26:05Or almost adding,
- 26:06it'd be like if I had did
- 26:07five rounds instead of four
- 26:10or pretty close to that anyway.
- 26:12And so at the end of the day, you asked,
- 26:14because you have to be in
- 26:15the top twenty to stay in the elite.
- 26:17Yeah.
- 26:18So I said, so how was it?
- 26:19I said,
- 26:20and so elite invites was go out Friday.
- 26:23They can start with elite
- 26:24invites and then backfill from there.
- 26:26And then RX invites go out
- 26:29at that and then backfill from there.
- 26:31So the last thing I said was, well, I mean,
- 26:33can you at least tell me
- 26:35where do I stand or do I
- 26:37have to wait till Friday or whatever?
- 26:39And the last email I got back from him,
- 26:42she said,
- 26:43it looks like you're still in the top.
- 26:46So all of that for nothing,
- 26:49you know what I mean?
- 26:51Like,
- 26:53anxiety annoyance whatever
- 26:56you want to call all all of
- 26:58the things all the emotions
- 26:59end up basically being for
- 27:01no good reason because I
- 27:02didn't I either didn't move
- 27:04or didn't move enough to
- 27:05where it made it made a
- 27:06difference because once
- 27:07you're an elite you get to
- 27:08the competition you start
- 27:09at zero percent it's a
- 27:11whole different thing and
- 27:12there's a judge there like
- 27:13andrew stenn to tell you uh
- 27:15remove the butt pad
- 27:17Right.
- 27:17Or it just won't be there to begin with.
- 27:20Right.
- 27:21And then they just put stuff on the floor,
- 27:23whether you need it or not.
- 27:25We did.
- 27:29Yes.
- 27:30Yes.
- 27:31A hundred percent.
- 27:33I will say this and I want
- 27:34to say this publicly
- 27:36because I understand that's where I was,
- 27:40Jeff.
- 27:40I don't know if that's where I'm still in.
- 27:46I understand the argument about all,
- 27:48you know, being on the same plane, right?
- 27:51Hands at hands, head, blah, blah,
- 27:53whatever on the same plane.
- 27:54So what they said was in the
- 27:57initial email I got back is
- 27:58that if I had put pads under my hands,
- 28:01like the same pads under my hands,
- 28:03as I had it in my head,
- 28:04I'd have been fine.
- 28:05Well, I get that in theory,
- 28:08but if I'm doing a cartwheel to get up.
- 28:12and trying to land my hands on these pads.
- 28:14And one of them goes sliding
- 28:15out from underneath me
- 28:17because that's not where
- 28:18they're designed to do.
- 28:20Now I'm having shoulder
- 28:21surgery because I'm coming
- 28:22down on my head and my
- 28:23shoulder at that point.
- 28:25My other,
- 28:27because- Are you trying to join
- 28:28the PFAA now?
- 28:31I'm just saying, dude,
- 28:31like that's in my head.
- 28:34That's where that that's where I go.
- 28:35Like, that's the first thing.
- 28:36The other thing is they talked about,
- 28:38you know, some people use an ab pad pad.
- 28:41If you put a twenty five on
- 28:42either side of it,
- 28:44it's all on the same plane.
- 28:45Yes.
- 28:46Until your head hits the ab
- 28:49pad and now is going below
- 28:51the level of the twenty five.
- 28:52And now I'm doing a deficit
- 28:54handstand push up.
- 28:56To the same level that I'm doing a short.
- 28:59But that is the acceptable
- 29:00way of doing that.
- 29:02Or you find someone who has
- 29:04cut up like an old
- 29:05wrestling mat into rectangles.
- 29:09I had five different people send me,
- 29:12and I'm not kidding.
- 29:13I'm not exaggerating.
- 29:15I had, yeah,
- 29:17just because you know how much those are?
- 29:19Pull that up, please.
- 29:20That Kia in nineteen twelve.
- 29:24Easy fit pads that are big
- 29:25enough to place heads and hands on them.
- 29:29They're ninety five bucks a piece.
- 29:31I know that because I had
- 29:33five different people,
- 29:34Jamie Latimer being one of them.
- 29:36And then for my other friends,
- 29:37send me the link to where
- 29:39you can buy them on Rogue
- 29:41or on some other company.
- 29:44Probably that's probably who
- 29:46buys them from whatever.
- 29:47They're ninety five bucks a
- 29:48piece for something that
- 29:50I'm going to use.
- 29:53Four times a year?
- 29:55No,
- 29:56you start using them for every workout
- 29:58you do handstand push-ups
- 29:59in so that you're used to
- 30:01it when it comes to the qualifiers.
- 30:05They had them at Legends.
- 30:07The first workout we did,
- 30:08the first thing I did at
- 30:09Legends was handstand push-ups.
- 30:13And they had them,
- 30:14and I think they were stuck
- 30:15to the ground.
- 30:16I don't know if they taped
- 30:16them down or whatnot,
- 30:17but I know when you kicked up,
- 30:18it wasn't going in.
- 30:22Maybe you get your affiliate to buy it.
- 30:24Yeah, he won't buy a freaking C-tube bike.
- 30:28And we have C-tube bike
- 30:29stuff programmed every single week.
- 30:32I'm with Andrew.
- 30:33Either spend the money on the equipment,
- 30:35do it without anything,
- 30:36or use something and get a penalty.
- 30:39Hey, lesson learned.
- 30:42I'll put it to you like that.
- 30:43I'll put it to you like that.
- 30:47Maybe we can do it.
- 30:50If you donate money to the chat,
- 30:51I will give that to Corey to buy a pad.
- 31:01No.
- 31:02One of my partners that I've
- 31:05been knowing for quite some
- 31:06time helped him open his affiliate.
- 31:10Actually,
- 31:10he just shut down not that long ago.
- 31:12He's one of the ones that
- 31:13sent me the link to that pad.
- 31:14He said, I'm buying you one of these.
- 31:17Father's day, birthday,
- 31:18all the things together.
- 31:19And I was like, dude, you know,
- 31:22they have those mats that you walk on,
- 31:24you put in your kitchen.
- 31:26So when you're doing dishes and cooking,
- 31:28like it's cushiony on your,
- 31:31that's what train to live uses.
- 31:33Those aren't ninety bucks.
- 31:35I still can't.
- 31:36Every time I see train to live thirty two,
- 31:38I still,
- 31:38I still read it as trained olive.
- 31:40I can't help myself.
- 31:41Yeah.
- 31:46Erland pad.
- 31:47I love them.
- 31:48I love me some Doug Reed, Doug and Judy.
- 31:55The problem with, so with,
- 31:57with Bert saying right there,
- 31:58the soft interlocking pads
- 31:59at Academy for cheap.
- 32:01Yep.
- 32:01They absolutely do every time.
- 32:04So we have a giant,
- 32:05like those giant gymnastics
- 32:06pads and ones that fold up or whatnot.
- 32:09I've tried to do them on there.
- 32:10And when my hands sink into
- 32:12it every single time,
- 32:17I feel like I'm doing either
- 32:18more work or not enough.
- 32:19It just doesn't feel right.
- 32:23I'm hearing a lot of excuses here.
- 32:25Oh, you can.
- 32:25Yeah, a hundred percent.
- 32:26I got a pocket full of them.
- 32:28Yeah.
- 32:29I got a pocket full of them.
- 32:31You know, you learn how to do stuff.
- 32:32You want to be a games
- 32:32athlete in two years, man.
- 32:35Oh yeah.
- 32:35I need to buy a ninety five
- 32:37dollar early pad.
- 32:38Apparently.
- 32:38There you go.
- 32:39Apparently my handstand push.
- 32:41Or a kitchen, kitchen softening pad.
- 32:45If that makes you feel more cozy.
- 32:49I should change my thing to
- 32:51kitchen softening pad.
- 32:52I might write that down so I
- 32:53won't forget it next week.
- 32:55Good news is I'll find out Friday.
- 32:57One way or the other.
- 32:58Here's my thing, dude.
- 33:01I don't have a problem buying stuff.
- 33:04I just bought a drag rope
- 33:05because Brandon programs it
- 33:06about once a week, something like that.
- 33:08I just got that in Monday.
- 33:10I was actually...
- 33:13peer pressured into buying out,
- 33:14but that's a whole nother thing.
- 33:18Those aren't really expensive.
- 33:20Say again?
- 33:21Drag ropes are not that expensive.
- 33:23No, they're not.
- 33:24I just haven't bought one.
- 33:25I meant to buy one while I
- 33:27was at Legends because they were there.
- 33:30Oryx Morgan was there and I just didn't.
- 33:33We went back to the Airbnb
- 33:35and Robbie had bought one
- 33:37and Gareth had bought one
- 33:38and they both bought different sizes.
- 33:39We were practicing them that
- 33:40night and I was like,
- 33:41I'm going to buy one of
- 33:42those tomorrow and I just didn't.
- 33:45Oh, but anyway, I was,
- 33:50every time it comes up,
- 33:51I just ended up using, uh,
- 33:53a heavy rope that I have
- 33:54access to instead of the drag room.
- 33:56And so a friend of mine from
- 33:57the chat from our text
- 33:59group or email company text
- 34:01group texted me one day last week.
- 34:03I was like, what's your address?
- 34:06And I said,
- 34:07it sounds like a loaded question.
- 34:09And she already had it in the cart.
- 34:11Like she was fixing to buy me a drag rope.
- 34:13And I was like, no, no, no, no.
- 34:16Kaya says, grow thicker hair.
- 34:19I mean, God, dog.
- 34:24Get that man bun up there to
- 34:25bounce off of.
- 34:25I don't have the patience.
- 34:28This is way long right now.
- 34:30I need a haircut.
- 34:31I'm going to go get one Friday,
- 34:32and I just don't have the
- 34:33patience to do that.
- 34:35I wish I did.
- 34:37Yes, Lito, drag rope dubs or absolutely.
- 34:42Yeah, I have a drag rope.
- 34:44I did some... My rope came
- 34:46in Monday and we had a drag
- 34:49rope workout program this
- 34:50week and I did them... I
- 34:52did it Monday and it was
- 34:54absolutely miserable.
- 34:58Absolutely miserable.
- 35:00Yeah, I... I got a drag rope at MFC.
- 35:04They were selling them that
- 35:05they used in a comp like a
- 35:06couple years ago.
- 35:08So I got it for like twenty bucks.
- 35:09Yeah.
- 35:11Dude, it was forty dollars.
- 35:12Like...
- 35:14It's not that big a deal.
- 35:16It's just me going,
- 35:17I'll just use the heavy rope instead.
- 35:19Or we have a calf rope at the gym,
- 35:22which is miserable.
- 35:25It's worse than the drag
- 35:26rope because it's heavy and thick.
- 35:30One of our first ever
- 35:31sponsors was RxMark here.
- 35:34I have a beaded rope.
- 35:35I have the Echo.
- 35:41Is that right?
- 35:44the really fast one.
- 35:45I have their normal RX Mark here rope.
- 35:50Yeah.
- 35:52Like when NorCal said that
- 35:53they were breaking apart, like I've had,
- 35:55I've had RX Mark here ropes
- 35:56for years and nothing has
- 35:59gone wrong with them.
- 36:00Oh dude, that's tough.
- 36:01Like I finally,
- 36:02I had an RPM rope forever and at legends,
- 36:05they had their booth there
- 36:06and I went and tried out that, uh,
- 36:09super bad-ass speed rope,
- 36:11whatever's like the, uh,
- 36:13And I bought one,
- 36:15like I ordered one the next day.
- 36:17Evo is what it's called the Evo.
- 36:19Yeah.
- 36:19The Evo dude.
- 36:21And that thing's a game changer.
- 36:23Um,
- 36:23we just ha how well and how easy it
- 36:25spends and whatnot.
- 36:26And you don't have to worry about cutting,
- 36:29measuring, like you just, Hey,
- 36:31this is the one I need to order.
- 36:32You want to do is I ordered that in a,
- 36:33in a spare cable.
- 36:36And yes, Judy, there is that.
- 36:39Each item isn't necessarily expensive,
- 36:41but it adds up when you're
- 36:42buying everything you think you need.
- 36:45Yeah.
- 36:45I guess like when I first started CrossFit,
- 36:47I bought it.
- 36:47I bought all the stuff, right?
- 36:49Like the knee sleeves, the arm sleeves,
- 36:52the wrist wraps, the.
- 36:55Eighteen pairs of nanos.
- 36:58I still have a problem with shoes.
- 37:01I still have a problem with buying shoes.
- 37:02Like I'm waiting for those Adidas,
- 37:06the new ones, the.
- 37:08Drop set.
- 37:09No, not the drop sets.
- 37:10You can buy drop sets right now.
- 37:12The ones that they just came out with,
- 37:14Bill was wearing some.
- 37:16They look like regular Spezials.
- 37:22Spezials.
- 37:24They are a training shoe
- 37:25that does not look like a training shoe.
- 37:29The problem is that, yes, those, Lito.
- 37:33I love drop sets, man.
- 37:36One of my...
- 37:39Actually,
- 37:39two people at the gym bought some,
- 37:41and the one that I trust
- 37:42more than anybody else, Benoit,
- 37:44my training partner,
- 37:47because I need something I can run in.
- 37:49And he's like,
- 37:50I don't know about running in these.
- 37:56That's the only reason why I
- 37:57haven't bought a pair of drop sets.
- 37:58But those Spezia are lower profile.
- 38:02Yeah.
- 38:03And... Well, my running sucks anyway,
- 38:06so it wasn't really...
- 38:10uh ddos yes sir yeah I'm
- 38:13actually going to probably
- 38:13buy it because I got a
- 38:15notification to uh get an
- 38:17email or whatever whenever
- 38:17they come back in stock for
- 38:19the white ones because
- 38:20that's uh but in the
- 38:21meantime they just
- 38:23announced that workout at
- 38:24monster games that is
- 38:27basically a high rocks type
- 38:28event um with a k of
- 38:31running so it's a a k of rucking actually
- 38:36So it starts off with a K of rucking.
- 38:38There's a hundred meter sled drag,
- 38:41another one K run.
- 38:42Then as a K, a one K skier, another run,
- 38:48one K run,
- 38:50and then a hundred meter sandbag lunge.
- 38:54And then it ends with a one K run.
- 38:55So I need new running shoes
- 38:56because the ones I have are
- 38:58beat to absolute crap and
- 39:00just not going to work well for that.
- 39:04Yeah.
- 39:06That's a great segue because
- 39:09have you noticed that like
- 39:10some of the conventional
- 39:11old school media are going
- 39:15all in on high rocks and
- 39:17have kind of like left the
- 39:19CrossFit space?
- 39:23It blows my mind.
- 39:23That's the exact same event
- 39:25every single time.
- 39:26So like how many different
- 39:27times can you come?
- 39:28How many different times can you cover it?
- 39:32I mean, like,
- 39:33I mean I'll name names like
- 39:34the buttery bros just an
- 39:35hour before we went on air
- 39:36came out with a new video
- 39:38it's high rocks specific
- 39:41and they're running the
- 39:42race with a different
- 39:44partner than they've ever
- 39:45had before and how are they
- 39:47gonna like and they're
- 39:49trying to race each other
- 39:50like it it doesn't even
- 39:54interest me like no to be fair
- 40:01And I know Morrison and
- 40:02Hebrew are two of the
- 40:03hardest working dudes in
- 40:04the space as far as that's concerned,
- 40:05but none of their stuff has
- 40:06interested me in quite some
- 40:07time because it's the same
- 40:09stuff over and over and over again.
- 40:13You know, it's, and I'm sure it's,
- 40:24I'm sure it's good, but
- 40:26I haven't watched any of it
- 40:27because nothing that
- 40:28they've done here lately
- 40:29has looked interesting.
- 40:31Like, it really hasn't.
- 40:33Yeah, I mean,
- 40:34I was one of the biggest
- 40:36Buttery Bro fans when they
- 40:37first came out.
- 40:38Same.
- 40:38Watched everything, really respected them.
- 40:42But man,
- 40:44like the Hiller stuff that's
- 40:45coming out now,
- 40:47Because Hiller doesn't focus on himself.
- 40:49He focuses on the athlete
- 40:50that he's covering or the
- 40:52behind the scenes from this
- 40:53weekend's NorCal.
- 40:55All about the athletes and
- 40:57the people he was talking to.
- 40:59And the random athletes.
- 41:01Right.
- 41:01Like not all elite athletes, just people.
- 41:06People that were in whatever he.
- 41:10Yeah.
- 41:14So I agree.
- 41:15Okay.
- 41:16I have to address this.
- 41:18So Kaya says Formula One's
- 41:20the same every time also.
- 41:22Hundred Meter Dash is the
- 41:23same every time also.
- 41:25I'm not talking about High
- 41:26Rock's The Race.
- 41:27I'm talking about the coverage of it.
- 41:30And the way they do the
- 41:31coverage starts to get the
- 41:33same flavor over and over again.
- 41:36Yeah.
- 41:38What I thought made the
- 41:39buttery bros great was
- 41:41going to Australia and
- 41:42doing that competition.
- 41:44They did there.
- 41:44That was very different than
- 41:45anything I'd ever seen
- 41:46before doing skydiving,
- 41:49doing like weird and crazy
- 41:52stuff that I would,
- 41:55that was different and new.
- 41:56And now it just seems like
- 41:58every other episode is a
- 41:59high rocks episode.
- 42:02doing the strongman stuff,
- 42:03going up to train with Matt
- 42:05Fraser or being there on
- 42:07his off day one weekend,
- 42:10I guess when it comes to mine,
- 42:11when they built the – he
- 42:13built the target for them
- 42:14to throw axes at.
- 42:16That kind of stuff was fun
- 42:17to watch because it felt more real.
- 42:20It felt more not just, hey,
- 42:22let's go run this high rocks again.
- 42:25Oh,
- 42:25and this time I'm going to run it –
- 42:27this time I'm going to run
- 42:28it with Charlie instead of whoever.
- 42:31Yeah.
- 42:31And I'm not here to dog them.
- 42:33They did one of my favorite
- 42:34videos of the year.
- 42:35They did the Laura Horvat video for WFP,
- 42:38which was spectacular.
- 42:41Dude,
- 42:41they're... But it was not a Buttery
- 42:43Bros umbrella.
- 42:47They're... Which documentary did they do?
- 42:53Was that in the year?
- 42:53Yeah,
- 42:56their CrossFit Games documentary from
- 42:58twenty nineteen is one of
- 42:59my favorite ones to watch.
- 43:03when they're talking about, you know,
- 43:05they got the, the workout,
- 43:07they had the first workout
- 43:08figured out and they're, you know,
- 43:10they in the motor home with
- 43:12Dan Bailey talking about which should be,
- 43:13and just that,
- 43:15that entire thing and the
- 43:16way they put it together,
- 43:18I thought was fantastic.
- 43:19Um,
- 43:22And like I said, I'm the same way.
- 43:23When they first started putting out videos,
- 43:25like when they first got
- 43:25fired from CrossFit and
- 43:27started putting out their own videos,
- 43:29they were outstanding to watch.
- 43:31It was fresh.
- 43:32It was new.
- 43:33It was fun.
- 43:37And I'm not saying that
- 43:38their stuff's not now.
- 43:38It's just there's nothing
- 43:39that they're putting out
- 43:40that I have any interest in watching.
- 43:42I hope they still get views.
- 43:45To Lito's question,
- 43:47I have no idea what their
- 43:48views on High Rocks episodes look like.
- 43:50god bless them I hope they
- 43:51get all of you I wish them
- 43:53nothing but success but for
- 43:55me personally I just don't
- 43:58care anymore like until
- 44:00they put out something that
- 44:02you or somebody I know and
- 44:04trust will send me
- 44:05something that says that
- 44:06hey this you should
- 44:07probably watch this this is
- 44:08pretty darn good then I'll
- 44:09probably watch it at that
- 44:10point but up until then so
- 44:14the high rocks video that
- 44:15came out an hour ago that
- 44:17currently has one point one k
- 44:24That's impressive.
- 44:24No.
- 44:25Mayhem Classic,
- 44:26when they're focusing on a CrossFit event,
- 44:28Mayhem Classic, a hundred thousand.
- 44:38They did a thing with the
- 44:40daughters at Waterpalooza,
- 44:43a hundred and sixty thousand.
- 44:49When it's adding stuff together,
- 44:50you know it's going to work, right?
- 44:51People still want to watch
- 44:52stuff about the daughters.
- 44:54People still want to watch
- 44:55stuff about Waterpalooza.
- 44:58I would watch that.
- 44:59I'd at least check it out.
- 45:02A feature of Kelsey Keel,
- 45:03who didn't even make the games.
- 45:04One hundred and forty one thousand.
- 45:08Like they have big numbers in.
- 45:11It was not a hundred K Jose.
- 45:15It was one thousand in the first hour.
- 45:20I'm trying to find other high rocks ones.
- 45:27I know they've done some others.
- 45:29Here we go.
- 45:30They're high rocks.
- 45:31The last high rocks that's
- 45:33been out for a month.
- 45:34Forty nine K. Yeah.
- 45:37Mayhem classic out a month.
- 45:39A hundred K.
- 45:42So that's telling me a lot.
- 45:46Fifty percent.
- 45:48It's kind of a big deal.
- 45:52Yeah.
- 45:53There you go.
- 45:56So anyway,
- 45:59it was just an observation I'd made.
- 46:01Thought I'd make a comment.
- 46:03It's usually where I get in trouble.
- 46:05Yeah, it's fine.
- 46:08Well, that's the thing, you know,
- 46:09they are doing it for the views, though,
- 46:11because that's how they get paid.
- 46:13Yeah,
- 46:15they're probably the highest paid
- 46:17content creators in the CrossFit space.
- 46:20I've heard the numbers of
- 46:21what they get for title
- 46:23sponsor for an episode,
- 46:25and it is bananas.
- 46:28Oh, I'd imagine so.
- 46:29Because they were the
- 46:30biggest thing in the sport.
- 46:34They're bringing on it.
- 46:36If I'm a sponsor, yes,
- 46:38I want to sponsor your show
- 46:39because I know how many
- 46:40hours I'm going to get on my product.
- 46:43And the, and to be, and also to,
- 46:45to prop them up, give them their,
- 46:48their ad reads that they do
- 46:51like in the mid in mid show
- 46:53are usually smooth,
- 46:54smooth as glass and entertaining.
- 46:57And for the most part,
- 46:59smooth as you can be smooth
- 47:01as you can be exactly.
- 47:03So bless them for that.
- 47:04Like they're good at, they're,
- 47:05they're good at it.
- 47:07So why wouldn't you pay them
- 47:08or why wouldn't, or couldn't they, I say,
- 47:10why wouldn't you pay it?
- 47:10Because I'm sure they're,
- 47:12they have a set price at this point.
- 47:14Like, no, no,
- 47:14this is how much it's going
- 47:15to cost for you to,
- 47:17for us to promote your stuff.
- 47:19Yeah.
- 47:20I, yeah.
- 47:22I don't know how much it is
- 47:23in inside the episode.
- 47:25I do know the title is what
- 47:27they were charging a year ago.
- 47:29Yeah.
- 47:30which was like I said
- 47:32bananas and again good for
- 47:35them yeah they deserved it
- 47:38they're if you're averaging
- 47:39a hundred k on your
- 47:41crossfit videos like you
- 47:43you're getting eyes on
- 47:45everything and the rest of
- 47:49us are just trying to get
- 47:50anywhere near there that
- 47:54includes I mean it's
- 47:57When Hiller goes over a
- 47:58hundred K that's a big deal
- 48:00to him still for them.
- 48:02That was the norm.
- 48:05Right.
- 48:06So like, we're all striving for that.
- 48:07They,
- 48:08they set the bar and Hiller and Savannah,
- 48:13the only ones that are even
- 48:14approaching those numbers anymore.
- 48:19But, but it's a,
- 48:21it's not a consistent thing
- 48:22to hit six figures on views.
- 48:25Yeah.
- 48:28No.
- 48:28I wonder what the Mayhem show,
- 48:32the Rich Fronten podcast,
- 48:34what does that do?
- 48:35Yeah, he's an anomaly.
- 48:36Well, that's what I'm saying.
- 48:38He might be another one that's... Because,
- 48:44like it or not, or admit it or not,
- 48:46but he's basically universally loved.
- 48:50He's got haters just like
- 48:50anybody else does, but in our space.
- 48:54Did you see that short the
- 48:55other day about asking
- 48:59Angelo about how famous
- 49:01Rich was in Cookville?
- 49:06And it's like,
- 49:07he rides with Santa in a
- 49:08Christmas parade.
- 49:09It said basically, it's him and the mayor,
- 49:17like,
- 49:18pretty much what and what as
- 49:19far as famous people in town.
- 49:20Like he can't go anywhere
- 49:21without being recognized.
- 49:22He said, now that he goes anywhere,
- 49:24Angelo said he door dashes
- 49:26Chick-fil-A and his groceries.
- 49:28Like he doesn't leave the
- 49:30house unless he absolutely has to.
- 49:31So yeah, they're,
- 49:42they're podcasts around thirteen K.
- 49:46Some of their stuff out like
- 49:49Mayhem on the Mountain or
- 49:50Syndicate Crown behind the scenes.
- 49:52Yeah.
- 49:53One K,
- 49:54seventeen K. Individual athletes
- 50:00with semifinals,
- 50:02sixty two K. So they're not
- 50:03even hitting those buttery bros numbers.
- 50:08That's impressive.
- 50:11What Lito said right there.
- 50:15Speaking of mayhem,
- 50:16looking forward to the next
- 50:17podcast and what they think about NorCal.
- 50:19Yeah, I'm anxious to hear that as well.
- 50:21I am.
- 50:22I'm going to watch that one.
- 50:23I can promise you that.
- 50:24I don't watch all of their stuff.
- 50:25I will have it playing
- 50:26sometimes while I'm working
- 50:27just so I can hear them talking.
- 50:28But, oh, my,
- 50:30I really want to hear about that, I guess,
- 50:32for execution boards' concern.
- 50:34Kaya has to take off.
- 50:36Yeah,
- 50:36we're running a little over today
- 50:39than our normal time.
- 50:41But, yeah, we just got into that.
- 50:42Sorry, we got off on a sidetrack.
- 50:45But that usually happens when Corey joins.
- 50:48Easily derailed.
- 50:51Did you notice the thumbnail
- 50:52that I added some jambalaya
- 50:53instead of steak to the thumbnail?
- 50:56I am in the jambalaya
- 50:57capital of the United States.
- 50:59Yeah,
- 51:01added some jambalaya and a hurricane.
- 51:04God bless you for that.
- 51:08I don't think I've had a
- 51:10hurricane since I was
- 51:11probably nineteen years old.
- 51:14Yeah, I had one in New Orleans.
- 51:17Because you have to have one.
- 51:19And it was way too fruity for me.
- 51:22Yeah, no, it's super duper sweet.
- 51:26Judy, I am... So happy I caught it live,
- 51:30especially with the great Corey Leonard.
- 51:32I don't know about great, Judy.
- 51:33I'm working on it.
- 51:34Apparently I need a giant
- 51:35pad to do handstand push-ups on.
- 51:39All right, guys.
- 51:40As everybody's leaving to get back,
- 51:42the rest of you
- 51:43knuckleheads get back to work.
- 51:45We're going to get back to work.
- 51:46We'll see everybody tomorrow
- 51:48on Lunch with the Clydesdale.
- 51:49Bye, guys.
