- 0:00I feel like if you sign a contract, you're contracted.

- 0:10You. Know what they should post the
- 0:12mountain we need to, we need to they, they, that's what they
- 0:16need to do. They need to post the mountain
- 0:18we should collab. Next mountain we need to collab
- 0:21with them. Like there are moments where I'm
- 0:23not saying like we're a big deal, but it's like there's more
- 0:25moments where I look back and I'm like, man, in in 2014, if I
- 0:29were to say like, hey, the games will like repost a take that you
- 0:34had, that's kind of crazy. Yeah, dude, as soon as the Games
- 0:38collabs on the mountain, I'll feel like I've made it like this
- 0:42is now legitimate. I'm the guy.
- 0:43Yes, the mountain is like Jeff. Jeff better care about the
- 0:47mountain. It's all the CrossFit Games
- 0:49website it. Stands hits the record.
- 0:51It's it's a rich tapestry of fitness history, man.
- 0:57It's the richest it's going to be.
- 1:31Welcome to the spin. I'm back.
- 1:34I'm so glad you're back. You don't like you don't like
- 1:38hosting? It was good.
- 1:40I think we've definitely got better.
- 1:43It was much better than the previous time, I will say that.
- 1:47It was good, I watched it back, obviously pulled out some clips
- 1:50for you guys I. Feel like you're contracted to
- 1:55do so. I sound so dumb sometimes.
- 2:00I, I, it's I, I can't. I don't think.
- 2:04Let's go. Let's go ahead.
- 2:06That's good map, lady. My favorite part of the week.
- 2:09Thanks for getting us through hump day, Sarah Hooper.
- 2:15How you doing, Shay? I don't know what kept me real.
- 2:20The show has more girls. Welcome.
- 2:25But no strong women. We got to keep the.
- 2:27Ratio, right? We're, we're not trying to run
- 2:29one of those Project X parties where it's just all dudes circle
- 2:32jerking. No, we invite chicks to this
- 2:35party. Yeah, here you go.
- 2:37ESC Sounds last week was the best episode yet.
- 2:42Of the episodes that John and I have done.
- 2:45That was the best. That was the best one.
- 2:47As good as any. Any show that's been has not
- 2:49been a part of that was the best one.
- 2:51That was vindicate. You guys did just fine.
- 2:55Speaking of vindicate, I got a Hiller.
- 2:57That's a dope shirt. It is dude, the color looks
- 3:00amazing. It's good.
- 3:02I like it. Yeah, the Purple 1 Grant's been
- 3:06talking trash about the Open with me, so we'll see.
- 3:09Grant, have you not learned your lesson yet?
- 3:12Dude, do you want to do Grant and Spin as the undercard?
- 3:14Done. I mean, that's really amazing.
- 3:20That's what you can do it dude. Well, in for those who don't
- 3:24know. I think Spin should say because
- 3:27we're going to be on his podcast.
- 3:30It's your idea. We're hopping it up.
- 3:31No, I know idea. We're going to hop it up and do
- 3:34something. Let's let's let's freaking do
- 3:35it, man. That means you have to get
- 3:37behind it, so go. Ahead, we need a banner.
- 3:39We probably need some poppers. I mean, John in his Grid league
- 3:45body wants to challenge Tyler. You're you're, you're wording
- 3:52this. You're wording this.
- 3:53Friend do a live a live open workout show following the
- 4:01official live announcement every week.
- 4:03So not Roe versus Baz, but John versus Tyler?
- 4:08We need to come up with a good name for it.
- 4:11I like heat one versus JY Barbell.
- 4:14But like, if we if we come up with something like Clever, I
- 4:18think I think we should rock with it.
- 4:19Like I think we should try to come up with something.
- 4:21Clever Grant just referred to himself in the third person.
- 4:25Did he? Grant beat Tyler and John in
- 4:2924.1 Standy. And then he, he flat out lied,
- 4:33'cause he did it. He was close to me.
- 4:39Hey, I was really close to a guy in that workout one time.
- 4:42This this is actually a good one.
- 4:47I yeah, but like, it's I. Represent the entire state,
- 4:52John. I like it.
- 4:57We'll have to figure something out, so stay tuned.
- 4:59Got. I'm super down for two weeks
- 5:01though. I'd have more fun watching them
- 5:03than than us, I think. Yeah.
- 5:07But I think, I mean, Colton was all about it.
- 5:09Maybe, maybe if we could figure out a way to work it.
- 5:11And Colton was free and it's done with the farm.
- 5:13Maybe, maybe Colton and I could commentate and watch you too.
- 5:17Dude, I mean, I think I think it'd be amazing.
- 5:19I think it'd be amazing. And I know there's I'm going to
- 5:24get crushed in something, you know, it's fine.
- 5:26I mean, if there's a lift, it's going to be.
- 5:28Hilarious, obviously, but but you know, at least the thing
- 5:33you're crushing me and it's just fitness.
- 5:35Oh, this is we have to move too fast for me to be good at this
- 5:39workout. So Tyler's just going to be good
- 5:41at this. I don't know.
- 5:44I mean, I don't think there's going to be a Max lift.
- 5:47I think if anything, it's going to be like last year.
- 5:50Yeah. I honestly think it's going to
- 5:51be almost identical Which. If it's identical 100% I think
- 5:55Tyler beats me like on all 30 Sierra.
- 6:01Oh. I might have to put grid on hold
- 6:04of Sarah. If you.
- 6:09If you. So bad, Sarah, by saying that
- 6:13you were going to do that because I'm going to have.
- 6:15To. You know.
- 6:17Get back CrossFit a little bit if money's on the line.
- 6:20John and I were just going to like barely try, but now we're
- 6:22like for real good to try. I got.
- 6:25I got to wait to cut. Now I got to. 15 days. 15 days.
- 6:30Sarah, if you send me some of your products that may or may
- 6:32not be legal, I will definitely Rep those now that my official
- 6:38career is over. So that'd be a great.
- 6:41Listen, as the only CA peptide athlete on the panel, I don't I
- 6:46don't know how I feel about Sarah just dishing out other
- 6:48other sponsorships like that. But by the way, Sarah, now that
- 6:54while we have you, if you want to sponsor the grid team, my
- 6:59grid league team 100% get in like like text me.
- 7:06I'm this is a serious and I can tell you like your stuff would
- 7:10be posted everywhere. But like, let's talk.
- 7:13If you really want to talk, you either sponsor me or the whole
- 7:15team. But I we're struggling.
- 7:17We need somebody. So I I'm super serious about
- 7:21that. But you know, I'm serious about
- 7:22this thing too. Glee start of the funding for JY
- 7:28versus Taylor's Tyler's understudy coverage.
- 7:32Tile. Oh, Taylor's understudy, Tyler.
- 7:36Yeah, I'm Taylor's understudy. Or is this Bryson?
- 7:40Bryson's Taylor's understudy. Yeah, Tyler's study.
- 7:43Weren't you, weren't you working with Taylor to understand
- 7:45programming though, Tyler? Yeah, he was just programming
- 7:49for me for a while. There you go.
- 7:51Do you guys want to get into it? We're going to do some fewer
- 7:55comments. Yeah, talk about the open and
- 8:00the only place you'll find details on the WFP.
- 8:07Any details? Any details?
- 8:09Any of them? Here's where you want to get
- 8:12those. All right, Viewer comments.
- 8:14I got a handful of them. First one from James in the gym.
- 8:19ALDI is the GOAT. US ALDI sucks a bag, but
- 8:24European ALDI is class. Christy Taylor then added US
- 8:30ALDI provides me with German treats for my childhood.
- 8:33For that alone, it's it's amazing.
- 8:35So everybody likes, likes the ALDI Dalton Bland.
- 8:41All right, here's one thing that bothers me.
- 8:44You all keep saying Sprague has an Asterix because of the games.
- 8:49Where is Adler's Asterix? He only won because of a broken
- 8:54foot. Wouldn't that simply make him
- 8:55second? I mean, I I've commented under
- 8:59this one. I responded to this guy.
- 9:02I've never referenced James's win as an asterisk win.
- 9:06I don't think Tyler has. I don't think, I honestly don't
- 9:09even think Spin has. Probably the one that's said
- 9:12it's less of an asterisk than anybody.
- 9:14So like I feel like this is coming out of left field and
- 9:16you're just trying to spew hate you I.
- 9:21Think hates I think where he gets confused.
- 9:24Negative Nancy of a man. I think where he's getting
- 9:29confused is the talk about the mountain Adler and how like
- 9:34who's better? The mountain is not the
- 9:38standings. I get it.
- 9:39But we, we don't have, I mean, we really don't, James.
- 9:42Is ahead of Adler. James is ahead of Jeff.
- 9:44Right. We don't have a good comparison
- 9:46of all of it, right? Like.
- 9:49That's why it's the mountain. I'm just saying there's at least
- 9:52on this show, there is nowhere where I feel like we have given
- 9:58we are pro James more than I think every other place on this
- 10:03show. Would you say like as far as
- 10:06fitness goes, not even just as a person.
- 10:08I think as a person it's kind of obvious, but a lot of shows like
- 10:11that. But no offense, Jeff, actually,
- 10:14I mean it's kind of a fence, Jeff.
- 10:15But as far as this, never mind as far as this fitness goes.
- 10:23So yeah, I think this comment. Is what's this guy's name?
- 10:26Pretty idiotic. Dalton Bland.
- 10:29Dalton. Pretty bland comment, let.
- 10:32Me, let me let me. Let me set you straight here,
- 10:34Dalton. You're trying too hard to
- 10:35understand the mountain as someone who has recently become
- 10:39enlightened in the ways of the mountain, the paths of the
- 10:42mountain, the true tapestry that is the mountain.
- 10:47Do try less. Just just you got to see it, but
- 10:51don't look at it. You got to feel it but don't
- 10:53hear it. You know what I'm saying?
- 10:55Yeah. Pat Lang.
- 10:58Oh, I wanted you to keep going, man.
- 10:59I was. I was.
- 11:01I was like, yeah, yeah, I was. I was.
- 11:04I was in that. Pat Lang I tuned in to watch
- 11:07Tyler eat his young. Good luck.
- 11:12No part of John is going in my mouth, if that's your situation.
- 11:19Adler is now going to block spin, become one with the
- 11:25mountain. Jenny Dense's Twin Peaks is
- 11:30greater than the. Mountain, I disagree, Jenny.
- 11:34I see what you're doing there, but this is the wrong show for
- 11:36that. And I and we won't, we won't be
- 11:39seduced by your seductive tactics, Jenny.
- 11:45Kyle Greenlee just got his cheater grips.
- 11:50Those things are crazy sticky. Speaking of which, code spin,
- 11:54Tyler, you gonna get that code spin?
- 11:56Saves you 15%. Code spin.
- 11:58I had people reach out and I had to check again this week.
- 12:01Code spin keep it simple don't put a number after it.
- 12:04Just everybody is code spin VZ this one's after you 2 guys.
- 12:10This is crazy rewriting of history.
- 12:13And he said exactly what she wanted.
- 12:16She's on the PFAA board was WTF You claim she didn't make
- 12:21demands. There's too many letters, right?
- 12:23Now more WTF to. Comment.
- 12:25Too many acronyms. I, when I, I will say when I
- 12:30listen to you, you said I need more details.
- 12:33I I think I'm kind of in agreement with VZ.
- 12:37You think it's bad We you think we rewrote history?
- 12:40I think no. I think that she gave enough
- 12:43demands to understand why she's not competing.
- 12:49OK, maybe I miss AI. Did not assume that those were
- 12:55hers. I assume like I've heard so many
- 12:57athletes be like, yeah, I was not OK with what the WFP put out
- 13:02and they just can't or not WFP the PFAA.
- 13:06Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
- 13:08Yeah. ABC.
- 13:13I assumed that she, I, I bet, just assumed that most athletes
- 13:17were not on board with what the PFA demanded.
- 13:21And so, OK, maybe she was did want Dave gone.
- 13:24All right, Cool. Then say that.
- 13:27Don't say morally, I don't morally I can't do the open, but
- 13:32it's OK for you to do the open. No, say I'm not doing the open
- 13:37because they didn't fire Dave and I want him gone before I can
- 13:42be like I'm I'm I'm in CrossFit. I can't support CrossFit if they
- 13:47are going to keep Dave around. And if say that, say that so
- 13:51weak. That like you're doing, you're
- 13:55not saying it out loud because you don't want people to not
- 13:58follow you, that don't agree with you.
- 14:00That's not. A then that's a that's.
- 14:02Morally shitty. Too, Yeah.
- 14:06And it's like, if people really like you and they really want to
- 14:08know what you're going to say, then say your fucking thing.
- 14:11I mean, look at Taylor and I'm not you.
- 14:12Will have people. Hey, I'll be careful with that,
- 14:15Taylor. Can't you know?
- 14:16Hey. I'm not saying you out.
- 14:17You can you need to say everything offensively, but like
- 14:20if you truly believe in your stance, you do want to get rid
- 14:22of Dave. And then somebody says, hey, why
- 14:24aren't you doing the open and you look at the camera and you
- 14:27say, I wanted to get rid of Dave and they didn't get rid of Dave.
- 14:29And so I'm not OK with doing the open anymore.
- 14:32That would be I would kind of respect that take more than I
- 14:37respect the take that she had. It would be just like Laura
- 14:40quitting the games and never coming back.
- 14:43Like I respect Laura for that. She didn't like be kind of
- 14:47Weasley about it. She fucking made a stance.
- 14:49She's never changed it. Yeah, I mean, I, I, I get that.
- 14:56I don't think she knows who she wants fired.
- 15:04What I mean by that is everybody keeps saying somebody has to be
- 15:07the fall guy. And I think de facto everything
- 15:11goes back to Dave. But I, I don't know if it's just
- 15:17Dave. I think it would be.
- 15:18I think they want somebody to be publicly fired or like blamed.
- 15:27Whether that's Dawn, Dave, somebody else, I don't know.
- 15:32I think that's what it is. Maybe I'm wrong.
- 15:35And, and I guess if she, in that video of Buttery Bros had said
- 15:39exactly that, then I guess there's not any interpretation.
- 15:42I interpreted it as she was part of the PFAA and we could
- 15:47basically say that what CrossFit has done does not fit what they
- 15:52demanded, what she signed and Vindicate asked a question that
- 15:58kind of ties into it. What about Royce Dunn now?
- 16:00Something to Dave to host an open announcement after calling
- 16:03for his head. And I think like.
- 16:06'Cause I mean, he was. He was one that signed it.
- 16:09He signed it. Is this he's he's still with me.
- 16:15No. Well, he's still with Mayhem,
- 16:17yes, but he's not on the PFAA board anymore.
- 16:20Didn't Max also sign sign it? But then was really like, I
- 16:24didn't fucking sign that shit. No, he didn't sign it.
- 16:26It was just. The Roy Roy It was just the
- 16:28Eater 9. It was just the athletes that
- 16:32signed it. I still stand by what I said
- 16:37last week. I want to remember Annie for all
- 16:39the good she's done for all of the people that she's inspired
- 16:43from 2009 up until 20/21. I want to look at Annie for
- 16:47that. I don't want to look at Annie
- 16:49because she we disagree on this subject and people are want and
- 16:55you want to make a big deal about.
- 16:56It I don't. I don't I.
- 17:02Mean. That's always the thing.
- 17:03You separate the music from the person.
- 17:06Yeah, Yeah. It's not that, Michael.
- 17:09Jackson it's not no, it's not that, but it's a it's a
- 17:11separation. It's the same what what Michael
- 17:14did, his music. I'm I'm going to, I'm going to
- 17:17Kanye West. Kanye West is a better one.
- 17:20It's even worse. I don't.
- 17:21Know what I don't? Yeah, because, yo, Kanye doesn't
- 17:25really know what he wants, you know?
- 17:27He's just kind of. He's all over the place.
- 17:29Yeah, my, I mean, Michael Jackson's sleeping with kids and
- 17:35not thinking. Nothing's wrong with it.
- 17:37Like, I'm not putting Annie in that.
- 17:38Boat. No, I don't.
- 17:39I don't trying to say that. I'm just saying that like you
- 17:41have to separate 2 aspects of yes.
- 17:44You didn't stop loving Michael. Pumping right?
- 17:47Whichever whichever person you're speaking with.
- 17:49Yeah, that's that's how I want to think about Annie.
- 17:52And then like, we just disagree. You know what I mean?
- 17:55She feels this way, I feel another way.
- 17:57And it's about the sport of CrossFit.
- 18:00Sir. Let's see, no one really liked R
- 18:05Kelly. I don't.
- 18:06I've never met a real R Kelly fan.
- 18:09Like of his music. Yeah.
- 18:11I I believe I can fly that Ignition.
- 18:16Those are two of the greatest songs of all time.
- 18:19Of all time, John. Yes, every single person that's
- 18:23watching this knows those two songs that I just said, right,
- 18:28everyone? But you're not you're.
- 18:32That doesn't mean you like it. You're.
- 18:33Telling. Me doesn't mean we like.
- 18:35It saw space Jam and you got 12 year old Michael Jordan looking
- 18:40at the rim right in the beginning of space jam and then
- 18:43this song comes on and then and then like you're you didn't have
- 18:47like goosebumps, adrenaline, your name, your what is this
- 18:50thing about the. Big song R Kelly, right?
- 18:52Now, no, no, everybody had those feelings, No.
- 18:56And then Ignition, Alan's a little bit of a it's a different
- 19:02thing, but like, it's a freaking banger, OK?
- 19:05It's a classic. I yes, everybody knows it.
- 19:11I'm not sure everybody likes it, but.
- 19:15If I put it on, you would sing it.
- 19:17OK, I bet you know not as much as you would sing 2 weeks.
- 19:20Ago I bet you know every word to ignition Brian.
- 19:22I guarantee you dude, I bet we put.
- 19:24It I don't even know that and. You just start singing it word
- 19:28for word. I.
- 19:30Do not. It's really catchy.
- 19:31I honestly don't. I would know it if I hear I
- 19:33honestly. Do not start dancing like oh I
- 19:36oh man. No, no, no, absolutely not 100%.
- 19:41You'd be like that. Indicate what the fuck is
- 19:47ignition? And listen, if y'all don't know
- 19:52this song, go ahead and look it up because it's one of the most
- 19:55catchy songs I've ever heard. I honestly do not know it, I'm
- 19:58sorry. Though I think you heard it.
- 20:00You heard it. I've heard it.
- 20:01I have no idea what it is though.
- 20:02He's. Like dear God, let's pivot.
- 20:05Let's move on to Houston, TX. It's saying that he peed on
- 20:11little girls. He's a terrible person.
- 20:13He's a terrible person and he is not that and he's not that all
- 20:18right if. There's if there's a dark spot
- 20:21of a subject we're not supposed to touch, we will get so close
- 20:25we're not touching it. And John?
- 20:26Texas. Wait a minute.
- 20:28Texas Texas What happened in? Texas Brian.
- 20:31Houston, TX. Oh, we're going to Houston.
- 20:34That's where I'm in. Houston, that's right.
- 20:36Right down the corner, Around the corner, here we go.
- 20:39Houston, TX 94. I'll do something I don't think
- 20:43most will and explain why. I'm like, not likely not signing
- 20:47up for the open. It's not for moral reasons.
- 20:51I don't belong to an affiliate, so I'm either doing workouts in
- 20:55my garage or the corner of my local gym.
- 20:59That was #1 #2 I can track my fitness through standardized
- 21:03metrics like lifting P, RS5K time, Fran time, etcetera.
- 21:08Or local events where I can see how I stack up against people I
- 21:11know personally. I care more about how I compare
- 21:14to Billy from 4 towns over than James Sprague who I'll never get
- 21:18close to and likely never meet beyond a selfie #3 There are
- 21:24only ways other ways to support CrossFit.
- 21:26Like I have my L2 for personal growth and training.
- 21:31Now these may be specific to Houston TX 94 and I'm not saying
- 21:36it's absolutely off the table, but it's like a 5545 chance.
- 21:40I also may receive backlash, but at least I'm willing to put it
- 21:43out there. No, I mean like good, good
- 21:47aspects of what he is saying is that or she, what this person is
- 21:52saying is that like they're self motivated.
- 21:57The one thing like I always struggled with was like
- 21:59comparing myself to everybody else.
- 22:02I was always mad because I couldn't beat so and so or
- 22:04whatever. So it's cool that like you look
- 22:06at standardized metrics that way and you are right, like you can
- 22:09support CrossFit with the education stuff.
- 22:12I think that probably actually goes a longer way than the open
- 22:16dollars. I still feel like you should
- 22:23sign up for the Open. Yeah, but it doesn't go to an
- 22:25affiliate. So is is he educating or he just
- 22:29has it? If he has it for himself.
- 22:32Yeah, but you workout. Guess we bought 5050 open.
- 22:36I got you, purchase. I got you. 1000 bucks purchase.
- 22:38Whatever you need to tell yourself to justify not doing
- 22:41the open. If you're going to do the
- 22:42workouts. I think you should sign up if
- 22:44you plan on doing the workouts in your garage.
- 22:49There we go, add a baby. Sorry, that's my fault.
- 22:52What are you? Doing there, Tom, I got I, we
- 22:55got it. I got pressure.
- 22:57Houston Houston, TX 94 So I ended up signing up for the
- 23:01open. There we go, I.
- 23:02Got pressured from a fitness pal so no shirt because he looked
- 23:05dumb this year. OK, that's fine.
- 23:08I like that one. That's fine.
- 23:10Yeah, you're right. The shirts are retarded.
- 23:11I got I'm with you. I'm just.
- 23:13I'm just kidding. Like some they're special, The
- 23:17shirts are special. I don't want to get in.
- 23:19Trouble super special. If you do the workouts, I don't
- 23:24care if you're an affiliate or if you're in a garage or if
- 23:27you're homeless, but you still like CrossFit and you'd hit it
- 23:30on the street, I think you should sign up for the open.
- 23:33Maybe not the homeless person because it's gonna cost money,
- 23:35but I if you're doing the workouts, I think you should
- 23:39sign up for the open. If not, then why are you even
- 23:42doing the workouts? Just just do a workout you make
- 23:45yourself, you know, it's supporting the methodology that
- 23:51you love. Period.
- 23:56That's it. That's a good segue to 25.1
- 24:03Open. We'll be right back after you
- 24:07see who's going to be competing at 25.1.
- 24:09Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the announcement of the Open
- 24:12workout. Here comes Hayley Adams, the
- 24:154th, the storm with Hayley Adams.
- 24:17Here comes Austin Hatfield. And Austin Hatfield picks up his
- 24:20first semifinals event win. He is blocking down the top
- 24:25spot. Roman clinic off.
- 24:26It's raining right now. I'm your host, Rory Mckernan.
- 24:32Welcome back. Everyone.
- 24:33I'm. Chase Ingram, It's going to be
- 24:36close. 25.1 CrossFit Mayhem Before we get into that though,
- 24:50I was thinking recently about the registration numbers.
- 24:55Hit hit us. So we're at like 79,000 right
- 25:00now, right? We're lagging.
- 25:02It was at like 40% behind after it kind of launched the date the
- 25:05first couple days and now we're down to like 34% behind.
- 25:10I know all of you guys are waiting to sign up, right?
- 25:15There's this huge push, like a third of the people signed up
- 25:18the last seven days, right? Like it's almost the open
- 25:21announcement. It's the day before and you
- 25:24finally sign up. But what I think is happening is
- 25:30that people that are on the fence are looking at the numbers
- 25:33going, no, other people aren't doing it.
- 25:39Maybe I shouldn't do it either, right?
- 25:43Like it's like almost a justification of seeing it.
- 25:47The numbers are down. And so it's like, well, if I
- 25:49don't sign up, I'm kind of with the majority of people.
- 25:52Maybe I just don't sign up either.
- 25:55But what if we what if people started seeing those
- 25:59registration numbers creep up or it's only like 5% back?
- 26:03Like what if instead of waiting till the last minute, we saw a
- 26:07push now to get it closer. And maybe you don't have a huge
- 26:11like spike the last few days, but it gets people that are on
- 26:16the fence to go. Maybe I should sign up, right,
- 26:20Because others are doing it. A lot of people are bandwagon
- 26:24everything, athletes, fans, what have you.
- 26:27I don't know, I, I, I, I feel like if you're going to sign up,
- 26:34just go sign up now and. Tell people.
- 26:37Yeah, like use that QR code up there, go sign up.
- 26:42I get you can sign up later, but I think I really think that
- 26:45there is a people are kind of looking around saying, well, if
- 26:52others don't sign up, then I'm just not going to sign up, not
- 26:55be part of that group. That's hilarious to me because
- 26:58it's like they came out and I basically, I waited a couple
- 27:01days for whatever reason, but I signed up pretty quickly.
- 27:04It's like just just go sign up. Like, you know, you know, you're
- 27:07probably going to do it anyway, so just do it now.
- 27:11Yeah, we peer pressured Bill and he did it today on the spot.
- 27:14I saw that he. Hadn't signed up yet.
- 27:17Well, he's trying to figure out what he wants to do if he wants
- 27:19to. Like he's got a little because
- 27:21he doesn't want to scale the weight, so he's got to figure
- 27:23out if he wants to call himself 54.
- 27:27Or just just do it and crush everybody.
- 27:30And just do it with heavier weights.
- 27:32That still crush everybody. Yeah, but he'd rather be in like
- 27:35the division underneath and then the division above and still do
- 27:39it with heavier weights. Does that make sense?
- 27:41Yeah, I. Understand like what if he just
- 27:43signs up for 55 plus does the heavier weights and then still.
- 27:46He would rather be ranked with the 54 year olds.
- 27:49That's fair. Because that he's doing the
- 27:51workout they're doing. I don't speak for him but like
- 27:55that's I'm pretty sure. He's going to wait till
- 27:57tomorrow. Phil, quit waiting.
- 28:01Phil That's the second best time to do it, but if you're not
- 28:07first, you're last. Phil.
- 28:08Right. See Hill.
- 28:11Don't think anyone cares about others signing up.
- 28:14I think 100%. It it is.
- 28:16You would think that people aren't like that, but you're
- 28:20wrong. When it comes to general
- 28:22population, 100%. Because like it.
- 28:26Is you want to do what everybody else is doing.
- 28:29In those first years, everybody was just like, they had no idea
- 28:32really what the open was. And they were like, did you sign
- 28:35up for the open? Do you sign up for the open?
- 28:37And it's just like they just kept asking everyone to sign up
- 28:40for the open. There was like, this was like
- 28:432013, Like, no, it had been out what, two years?
- 28:47Yeah, 2011. Yeah, And there were so many new
- 28:49people. And it like, it really is just
- 28:52about hype. Like people sign up on hype
- 28:54alone, but it's like we all know what the open is.
- 28:57We know that it's fun. We know that it's cool.
- 28:59We know it's worthwhile. It was my goal when I originally
- 29:03started to do the open, have a decade's worth of opens now.
- 29:09And I've done that. And it's like, well, why would I
- 29:12ever stop? Like I've seen my fitness and
- 29:14how it's changed and how I've felt about it.
- 29:16It's like there's no reason to quit.
- 29:19No, I agree with that. Hang on, let me, I'm trying to
- 29:22pull up because I have a list of maybe the list of athletes who
- 29:31have signed up that you might know more and more of the top
- 29:36athletes are signing up because Jenny or Tia Den's update just
- 29:41said Tia has not signed up last she checked, which is correct.
- 29:45But again, people are signing up at the end.
- 29:51And don't do it. And Emma Lawson's the 2025
- 29:55CrossFit Games champion. That'd be crazy.
- 30:00Let's see, Dallin Pepper has signed up now.
- 30:04Roman Kranikov. Austin Hatfield.
- 30:08Thank God. Hayley Adams that the next.
- 30:11Day, Bruno, Marins, Ruan. I'll pop the guy through Maddie
- 30:17Sturt. Jay Crouch is not yet though.
- 30:21Kyra Milligan soon going to Troy Dewan.
- 30:27Dewan is going to make a return trip or at least attempt to.
- 30:30And then obviously Colton, which is not last year's game athlete,
- 30:34but one, one and semifinal athletes are are now signed up
- 30:39as well. Taylor signed up still.
- 30:42So JC just signed up. There we go.
- 30:46I signed up for the. That course, what did the the
- 30:50athletes at Mayhem that were at that gym in Nashville, where did
- 30:54they sign up? Which one?
- 30:57Did they signed up? Hendersonville.
- 30:59Oh, across with Hendersonville, Yeah, they are all signed up in
- 31:02a different affiliate. They're all signed up, yeah.
- 31:08That's off to. Sarah Cooper.
- 31:10That's it for games people. That is it for the individuals
- 31:13of last year. They can.
- 31:15They tend to wait. It's in the wait till last.
- 31:16Minute, that's the that's it, right?
- 31:18Like everybody waits and I think generally speaking it's not a
- 31:22big deal, but when this year is what it is, I really think that
- 31:28just seeing others sign up would give people like, OK, well I
- 31:35know they were struggling with it, but they signed up so I'm
- 31:37going to sign up too. Two times the meat.
- 31:44Honest question, can you guys really not see the other side
- 31:46that people are upset with HQ and are just deciding to sit
- 31:49this one out? You can still love your
- 31:50community and do CrossFit without pain.
- 31:52It's not HQ. You're not doing the open for
- 31:56HQ. You're doing the open because
- 31:59that's what CrossFit is, OK? It's not about supporting Dave
- 32:04Castro or supporting HQ. It is CrossFit like it's not.
- 32:12It is a statement on the whole. You're, you're being selfish by
- 32:17saying that. Well, I'm not supporting it
- 32:20because it's coming out of HQ. Nobody's ever liked HQ.
- 32:25That's kind of true. And that's cool, but you're 100%
- 32:30justifying to it, to yourself that that's your reason.
- 32:35And it's, it's, it's dumb. If you, if you love CrossFit or
- 32:42if you like CrossFit at all, that's what you do.
- 32:45Like you your workout regimen is CrossFit, then you should sign
- 32:50up for the open. It's not about supporting HQ.
- 32:54It's just, it's the principle of it.
- 32:59Yeah, like I, I liken it to a boycott, right.
- 33:06And and some some some degree the boycott is trying to want.
- 33:12You could say it like the the minor thing is make change, but
- 33:15at the end of the day, like if you push them out of business
- 33:19right hold. On this is this is this is I
- 33:21want. To bring this up, I just did.
- 33:24No, I'm, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
- 33:26Go ahead. Go ahead, Spin.
- 33:27You were yours. Yeah.
- 33:28I mean, it's it's it goes back to C JS point about what's what
- 33:32separated us from every other fitness endeavor out there.
- 33:35Like I'm not saying if you don't do the open CrossFit ceases to
- 33:42exist. But if CrossFit was just a
- 33:47different F45 or orange theory, there wouldn't be a community,
- 33:54right? Like somebody doing orange
- 33:55theory in Chicago could care less about somebody doing orange
- 34:00theory in Florida. Like who cares?
- 34:04They have no reason to talk to each other, communicate, think
- 34:08about all the people that you've, you know, if you go to
- 34:10the games, how many people you've met from all across the
- 34:13country or the world, right? Like I think if people just
- 34:19start going away and it ceases to exist because it's just not
- 34:25financially viable or whatever, like then then we're just a gym
- 34:30and you can say, well, there's an affiliate and you have your
- 34:33community in your gym. If you just go to the XYZ gym
- 34:39and there is nothing tying you all together, it's fine.
- 34:45But it's I think there's something bigger and better to
- 34:48having a whole community. And I think that's what you are
- 34:50supporting is the entire community to having this thing
- 34:53that unites us across the world. We're the only fitness
- 34:56methodology or anything like this that has one time of year
- 35:01where we all put down all our shit and do the same thing all
- 35:04at the same time. And we, we have to remember that
- 35:08we are different. Like I think we've been afraid
- 35:11to like the in the early days, that's all we ever said is like
- 35:14how different we were and everybody else is fucking dumb.
- 35:17And we've gotten away from that. And I think it's our time of
- 35:20year to say like, no, This is why we are cool.
- 35:22Like we all do the same shit and we all care about the one same
- 35:25thing, everybody in the world the same time.
- 35:28And if we don't treat ourselves like we are different, we will
- 35:33cease to be different or relevant.
- 35:35And I think, I think, and even if you don't care about
- 35:38comparing yourself to other people, like across the world, I
- 35:42know if there's, I know like a Houston 94 guy, he's like, I
- 35:45don't care what other people across the world does.
- 35:48Like if you don't participate in the open or pay for the open,
- 35:54you are actively trying to kill CrossFit.
- 35:58And I mean, like, it's hard to look at it like that, but
- 36:01instead of like thinking you're either supporting it or you're
- 36:04actively trying to kill it. I true like that one.
- 36:07And even this goes to like gyms that do CrossFit but aren't
- 36:11affiliated 'cause there's a lot of them out there.
- 36:13I go to one, right? The owners of my gym, we're not
- 36:16an affiliate. And I told my owner straight up,
- 36:21like, I think we should affiliate.
- 36:22He gave me a whole bunch of reasons why he doesn't want to.
- 36:24I'm like, right now you are actively killing CrossFit
- 36:29because they need us. They need us right now.
- 36:34And, and it's choosing not to pay $20.00 because of some moral
- 36:42principle. You are actively trying to kill
- 36:46it. Something that you love.
- 36:49You just, you're just mad at them.
- 36:54Clooney's your arguments are very poor, so generally I would
- 36:59understand why you're saying what you're saying.
- 37:02We are sort of making a religious based argument like
- 37:06it's it. It isn't based in fact.
- 37:08Other than that if we all stop doing CrossFit, like the open,
- 37:14it'll cease to matter and CrossFit kind of will cease to
- 37:17exist. The Open is what made CrossFit
- 37:20into everything we care about as far as the sport goes.
- 37:25The sport was like cool kind of, and then the Opened happened and
- 37:30it became very cool very quickly and it made it into what it is
- 37:34today. We you're, you're a freaking
- 37:38idiot, man. Like if you can't, if you can't
- 37:41like have a actual intelligent conversation, I'm going to block
- 37:44you because you're, you're freaking the.
- 37:48Problem. The problem is I can't.
- 37:50I don't know how to unblock you, so you're kind of screwing that
- 37:52case going. Back ass ass Magnus.
- 37:55It took us a while. Going back to what Amy said
- 37:58about, like I, I said this last week, I think her take should be
- 38:04and like, I don't want to push my take on anybody else, but I
- 38:07think CrossFit gave her everything that she has
- 38:11everything. And she, I mean, like she did
- 38:14the work to earn it, but it facilitated that for that to
- 38:17exist. And I think she has to be grown
- 38:21up enough to understand the open is sort of sacred.
- 38:26I will say, hey, I have a problem with what's going on,
- 38:30but be in spite of that. I will put that down for the
- 38:33open because it is sort of sacred and I will, I will voice
- 38:37my opinions. But this is how much the open
- 38:39matters, I think. And just say I'm not supporting
- 38:41Dave Castro, I'm not supporting HQ, I'm supporting our community
- 38:46and our community needs it. I think that's a much stronger
- 38:49statement because yes, you like deuce you, you acknowledge that
- 38:54CrossFit, the Open is more, is bigger than Dave, it's bigger
- 38:57than HQ, it's bigger than everything.
- 39:01But you also acknowledge that you have issues with Dave or
- 39:03whoever. Yeah.
- 39:08One, one question I would have for Andy is if you're so upset,
- 39:13why do you keep your affiliation?
- 39:18I don't know. I don't want to harp on Andy
- 39:20because I feel like we. You want to.
- 39:21You want to forget that? I feel like, well, I feel like
- 39:24we do. I feel like we have for a while.
- 39:26That's fine, fine Ben and Ho. I think it's less about the
- 39:29moral principle and more about CrossFit not having a clear
- 39:32direction with the season changing every single.
- 39:34Year. They haven't had a clear
- 39:35direction since 2007. Benning to H2O.
- 39:38You want to talk about a clear direction?
- 39:412008 every single workout was 4 minutes.
- 39:45They don't know. They didn't even know how to
- 39:46work out. You know a clear direction.
- 39:49There's never been a clear direction.
- 39:51There's never been a clear direction.
- 39:53Unknown and unknowable. I know it sucks that they get to
- 39:55just have like this, this ultimate cop out by saying that,
- 39:59and they really do because they can mess up a lot and then just
- 40:03say unknown and unknowable, right?
- 40:07But like, if that's your reason because they don't have a clear
- 40:10direction, Nick, give me a year where it was clear.
- 40:13Like, dude, get over yourself. You're just spewing stuff
- 40:18because you don't know what else to say, but you're just mad.
- 40:22It makes no sense like that makes no sense.
- 40:25I like the. Principle.
- 40:27That's a clear direction. That's the stupidest comment
- 40:30I've ever seen in my life. A clear direction?
- 40:33Are you serious right now? Yes, Pat Lang, you're saying
- 40:39CrossFit can't operate on 30 million plus in affiliate fees.
- 40:42Yes, CrossFit affiliates can operate on 30 million of
- 40:46affiliate fees, but if you don't have the open, I think you lose
- 40:52a little bit. Magnus, can confirm you don't
- 40:56want to be blocked. Trust me, it takes takes weeks.
- 40:58I like this comment. I like this comment a lot.
- 41:01Yeah, I I agree. And if you are a any like any
- 41:06three of us or wide range of fitness and you're worried about
- 41:10the season structure it it doesn't matter, right, Like it
- 41:16doesn't. Yeah, two times to meet.
- 41:20If you're unhappy with the way the Open has been operated, such
- 41:22as removal of quarterfinals, we're constantly changing.
- 41:24How else would you voice your disappointment?
- 41:26Just keep doing it, yes? I just figured out who Marshall
- 41:30Applewhite was. I don't.
- 41:33Even he's not Marshall Applewhite.
- 41:35He's the leader of a cult. Map lady Map lady this this is
- 41:40so cult like. You're not Marshall Apple.
- 41:44I I like cross it when it was a cult.
- 41:47Yeah, bring back the cult. It's that's really the OG
- 41:51culture, I think. I mean.
- 41:52Everyone you listen to liked those days and is trying to get
- 41:57us back to those days. It's not, it's not everyone's
- 42:02gonna do it, and I'm OK with that.
- 42:04Yeah. That's that's the hard part
- 42:06about trying to become so popular where you have 30
- 42:09million people. I'm just doing so sick of trying
- 42:12to make everybody like everything like just like I'm
- 42:16I'm, I'm so with it. No, not, not me, but like
- 42:20CrossFit, like you know what happening?
- 42:23Like Greg sold it and then it became about we can't upset
- 42:26anybody. Everybody has to like everything
- 42:29like I'm with. Go back to the days where it's
- 42:33like I do this thing and you. Other people in the world.
- 42:36Have no idea. You're beneath me.
- 42:39You can't do what I can do because CrossFit is that much
- 42:43better than every single thing else.
- 42:46And the people that we produce are are just better than
- 42:51anything else there is in the world that the regular person
- 42:55that goes to our gym is just better than the regular person
- 42:59anywhere else because of what CrossFit does for you.
- 43:04I want to go back to that cocky attitude, right?
- 43:09That people get sick of that like like every when there was
- 43:12the meme, you know, somebody's doing CrossFit because they'll
- 43:15let you know about it, right? Or you can't stop talking about
- 43:17CrossFit because when the bug bites to you and everybody knows
- 43:21about the bug that I'm talking about, when that bug bites you
- 43:24at the end of your first CrossFit workout and your whole
- 43:27body just died from 5 minutes of work, then you understand, oh,
- 43:34this is going to make a difference in my life.
- 43:39That is why you're doing the open that that feeling. 100% Pat
- 43:47Lang My first open was in 20/20/17.
- 43:49I was immediately colted. Yeah, I mean, I would rather
- 43:56have a smaller group of people who are 100% dedicated to it
- 44:01than more who are just yeah, it's it's what I do to work out.
- 44:09So As for the actual announced open announcement?
- 44:16We even talked about the topic at all.
- 44:19No, I, I, I want to talk about that.
- 44:21I think it's important that people think about the
- 44:24registrations and all that that goes into it.
- 44:27Austin Hatfield, Roman Kranikov, Hayley Adams, and maybe.
- 44:32A special guest. Which it's rich.
- 44:36It is 100% rich. It's Angelo.
- 44:38Dude, the clip of Angelo comments.
- 44:41Yeah, it's Angelo. The clip, The clip of Angelo on
- 44:45the on Instagram. I, I posted to my story, but
- 44:48he's like, and the special guest and who do we know that?
- 44:51Is he just waiting to see what the workout is seeing, seeing,
- 44:55seeing how the if there's pistols or not seeing if the old
- 44:58knees are up to it? Like that's what the special
- 45:00guest is doing. I thought that was hilarious.
- 45:05I like Pool Boy's question. Am I the special guest?
- 45:08It's like when you go to the airport and you you're like,
- 45:10I've never carried a gun on me in the airport, but for some
- 45:13reason do I have a gun do. I have this special guest.
- 45:18Am I the special guest? Here here is the the video.
- 45:23She'd been an open announcement, like a true one, at Mayhem.
- 45:26Mayhem No. No, the first SO.
- 45:27That's exciting. Austin Hatfield, Roman
- 45:32Kranikoff, Hayley Adams. And then an unknown guest.
- 45:35An unknown guest. I don't know who that guest is.
- 45:39Who that gonna be a man. I don't know who's gonna be OK.
- 45:42OK. I I bet that guest is on like a
- 45:44day by day basis. That guest is waiting to see if
- 45:49if there's pistols in the workout.
- 45:50No, it's not even waiting to see if.
- 45:51The workout, what the workout is, it's waiting to see what the
- 45:55guest's body feels like. You know, the day or two before
- 45:57wake up and have a good knee day.
- 45:59Yeah. Shoulder day or back day?
- 46:01Yeah. Or hip Day.
- 46:02Hopefully I'll give up. You know, man, there's a dose of
- 46:06reality, but it will be cool. I think it'd be really cool for
- 46:09our members. We're gonna we're gonna open up
- 46:12the doors, let people come right?
- 46:13Come for free. There's never.
- 46:17For free. For free.
- 46:19What if? What if it was Mal O'Brien?
- 46:24Holy shit that would be fucking. That would be that would be out
- 46:27of like it's it's not it's rich. I mean I'm excited, I'm excited
- 46:31to see rich, but think about thing.
- 46:33I'm just how funny it would or not funny, but like just mind
- 46:38blown Joe Rogan meme, right. If all right, and I think we got
- 46:43somebody else coming out the door and then it's just allowed
- 46:46me to reintroduce myself and then Mal O'Brien walks out.
- 46:51Would that not be like the most insane thing?
- 46:54I'm sorry to point you Mal is on on lab management under the
- 46:58fitness category. Not in CrossFit.
- 47:02Not the CrossFit athlete. These are all.
- 47:04Gross. I can't.
- 47:04I don't know why I clicked on that.
- 47:06I can't see that. I just clicked on her Instagram
- 47:08page and it took me to nothing. CrossFit.
- 47:13Yeah. So she's not in the CrossFit
- 47:15list, she's in the fitness list. So maybe it'll change it, but I
- 47:22don't think it smell. No, no, I don't think so either.
- 47:24I just think it would be. It would be pretty cool.
- 47:27Yeah. Well, that's that's the tough
- 47:30part. Like if we go there, then we
- 47:31can't do John versus Tyler. Might have to make an exception
- 47:35because I've never been doing open announcement, John, and I
- 47:40kind of really fucking want to. Hey, let's just tell boss to let
- 47:44us do it after and we'll be on. There.
- 47:45Hey, boss, boss. Well, hey, hold on, Why would
- 47:50they not let us? Why would they not let us after
- 47:53their thing is? Done Mayhem?
- 47:54You coming to Mayhem? I mean if you know if this is a
- 47:58thing. I if we could swing it, dear
- 48:03Jenna, I, I would. I didn't talk.
- 48:07To my wife real quick, I guess. I guess it's coming about.
- 48:10Right. I'd want to go 100% Sarah.
- 48:13We might need your help to get John here, but I would want 100.
- 48:19Yes, I will need. I would need that paid for me to
- 48:23do that. I want to go anyway, but I would
- 48:27want 100% do it in front of everybody if we could do it out.
- 48:31On a while. Oh yeah, dude, I'll die.
- 48:33I'll. I'll be like, hey guys, let's
- 48:36see a slow sloth about to die on the road.
- 48:39Wanna level sponsor you? Thanks.
- 48:41Wanna. Thank you.
- 48:42Wanna. Sarah Yeah.
- 48:50Are you excited? John Austin Hatfield open
- 48:55announcement. We'll see.
- 48:57We'll see what the workout is. Do you think?
- 49:00That's the repeat. If it's the repeat that I think
- 49:06it is, then I think it I think it has to be the repeat because
- 49:12the first workout is always the most accessible.
- 49:15It is the easiest one to do. Just like movement wise,
- 49:20movement wise you're. You're doing wall balls and
- 49:24rowing, is that yours? No, I would like that one though
- 49:28if. It's double unders.
- 49:29I actually feel pretty good about my chances with Tyler on
- 49:31that, on that one. If that's the repeat 19.1 the
- 49:34wall balls and rowing that's. A That's a lot of time for you.
- 49:37It's 1515 minutes. I got that unbroken all day.
- 49:40Then it's just rope pace. I'll take, I'll take me.
- 49:42On yeah, he'll get he'll get me everyday on rope pace alone.
- 49:46The no the 20.2 is the one that I think it's going to be and
- 49:49that's double unders, toasted bar and dumbbell thrusters, 120
- 49:52minute amrap. It's disgusting.
- 49:54I like us for that. Like I it could be a crapshoot.
- 49:58I think you'll get me on that. I think it's just too long.
- 50:00I think I'll just, I think so. So 15 is the cut off, is that
- 50:04what you're saying? Yeah, I got about a 15 minute
- 50:07clock. Yeah.
- 50:08Have you noticed the like, gymnastic thruster workouts?
- 50:12There's always a 15 minute cap and I always just finish it at
- 50:15the last second. I got a 15 minute clock on me.
- 50:18You know what I mean, 'cause there's really like eight of
- 50:20those and I'm, I'm always, I usually beat you.
- 50:23You always like almost finish and, and I'm always barely
- 50:27finishing those. No, I think it'll be 20.2.
- 50:31I give you, I give you the edge on that, but it'll be, if that's
- 50:35the workout, then I think it has to be the repeat because that's
- 50:39the most accessible. It's an easy one to do.
- 50:42It's a great workout for people who don't have a lot of double
- 50:46unders to still participate because it's only 24.
- 50:50So you're still working the whole time, you know what I
- 50:53mean, which is nice. Thrusters.
- 50:57That'll be the first time ever programmed in the first workout.
- 51:04Yeah, I think so, yeah. I don't.
- 51:07I don't. Hate it.
- 51:08This is the Open. Anything for double unders so I
- 51:12can take down Grant? That does sound pretty high
- 51:15skill though, the way the Open has been in the past or the last
- 51:19two years for AT to be the first workout to have double unders.
- 51:22Double unders is a high skill for the last two years the way
- 51:27the last two years has been. I've never under shuttle.
- 51:31Runs so I could beat your ass. I'm not, I'm not bad at shuttle
- 51:35runs. I'm not good.
- 51:36I'm not good at them, but like I'm not, I'm not that bad at
- 51:39them. I think, I think I beat you in
- 51:40the Burberry pull up workout. The 9 that's all shuttle runs.
- 51:43That's pretty cardio 1. Oh, I think I redid it right at
- 51:48the end and got. You OK?
- 51:49OK, OK, Well, I. Original 1 pull up is.
- 51:53That what you're talking about? Yeah, I screwed it up bad the
- 51:551st. Time.
- 51:56Yeah, you might be right. Because I, I remember I was, I
- 51:58was, I was surprised that I was ahead of you.
- 52:01That was the only one. That was the only one I ever did
- 52:04where I like somebody was like, what are you going to do
- 52:07different? And I was like, I just going to
- 52:10do it harder. And that actually played well,
- 52:15like that actually worked. Yeah, I'm just, I hated that.
- 52:18Try this time. That's what I'm going to.
- 52:20Do I hated that because my pull up bar is like 6 inches above my
- 52:23fingertips. So it was way harder than for
- 52:27than for everybody else, especially like a Scott Tetlow
- 52:30where he was like. It did humble me.
- 52:33Hiller beaten me walking. That humbled me a lot.
- 52:37I did redo that one on you're really interested.
- 52:39It got faster. It was.
- 52:41That's wild that he figured that out.
- 52:43That's all him too, because like.
- 52:45Once, once you hit a wall in that workout, it's like it.
- 52:47It makes it worth it to like. I wanted to, I do want to go
- 52:53back on the open and just the general community video
- 52:59submissions when you're not an affiliate, if you're just a
- 53:06community member, should we even require it?
- 53:10I don't think so. I don't think 1.
- 53:11I don't think people are going to watch your.
- 53:14Video. Yeah, if you're 138 thousandth.
- 53:17Yeah, I think I think I'm I wouldn't mind like a cut off
- 53:21like if you think you'll be in the top 10,000 then you need to
- 53:26post a video and then the crowd and then you'll and then you'll
- 53:30Crowdsource I. Don't think anybody's looking at
- 53:3312,000. I wouldn't be surprised.
- 53:35You'd be surprised. I think people might right
- 53:37around you might a little bit, but.
- 53:41Yeah, if you think you're going to have like a top, I think
- 53:44there should be a rule like if, if it's a top 500 workout or
- 53:48whatever. Yeah, if it matters.
- 53:50If it matters, yeah. Like to make it in the top 1% if
- 53:53you're if you're cutting for that, sure.
- 53:55But not, not even if you want to make it 'cause they'll be like,
- 53:57I know that they're not going to do this.
- 53:59But like remember when they programmed the clean and didn't
- 54:02like penalize you for not basically doing the other piece?
- 54:05But like, say you're just going to have a killer workout and
- 54:09like, you know it's going to, but you're not, you're not
- 54:11trying to gun it for the semifinals.
- 54:14You I think it should be mandatory that you have a top
- 54:17500. Dude, that's the repeat.
- 54:20If that's the repeat, 18.22 AI might have a shot of the top 1%.
- 54:27I don't see it happening. Because that's front squats with
- 54:31the dumbbells, right? And then burpees over the
- 54:35dumbbells. But it's 12:50 or 1:00 to 10:00.
- 54:39Something like. That it's a 4 minutes.
- 54:41It's like just balls to burn it. That's that's short enough like
- 54:45I won't die and then it's a Max clean.
- 54:50That's two workouts. Dude if they do that.
- 54:53Two workouts with no skill and you know, there's going to be
- 54:56like muscle up somewhere in there.
- 54:57Like I'm going to be decent at that.
- 54:58I might. Not if that's if they do that
- 55:02like I can't win at all. Well, one workout.
- 55:08That that, that, that you won't win that one.
- 55:11But yeah, but I think like if we did it by open rank like between
- 55:15you and. I no, I don't just head to head.
- 55:17We'll just do head to head. All right.
- 55:20You would have beaten me in the prove it throw down correct?
- 55:22And if we were, it was just head to head.
- 55:25Yeah 'cause you you won like 3 of the.
- 55:28Four. Yeah.
- 55:30Ernie Garza 499. Thank you, Ernie.
- 55:32Will there be a barbell spin leaderboard?
- 55:35Want to see if I'm fitter than Tyler and John?
- 55:37You're actually in luck. I have created it.
- 55:43There is hashtag, hashtag the barbell spin.
- 55:49The barbell spin. So you need to add myself to
- 55:52that, Yeah. How do you add it to your?
- 55:56Profile. If you go into your like account
- 55:59settings, there's like hashtags like where you can sign up for
- 56:04the service cup. There's also a hashtag group
- 56:07there that you can do that. Larry Young Well, Hitler's bench
- 56:12post should have made you feel like a God.
- 56:16Probably like probably the John. I don't know what he's talking
- 56:18about. He benched 275 for three.
- 56:22Not he benched 315 for three. He might have.
- 56:26It was five. It was 5. 5.
- 56:28Yeah. Yeah, I mean, I that's fine.
- 56:32I can probably. That's kind of crazy, I know for
- 56:38you. There's, there's, there's
- 56:39crazier things. I've hit three O 5 one time.
- 56:43The other's got a really good bench press though.
- 56:45His his all time is more than my all time.
- 56:48I don't know if you can out bench me right now because I'm
- 56:51probably do my best right now, but his all time's more than
- 56:56mine. Just barely, unfortunately.
- 57:03There should be. I'm sure there is.
- 57:07Start it, start that, start that hashtag.
- 57:11#Unemployed. So.
- 57:15Yeah, no, the no service open. Yeah, I, I don't know, I I just
- 57:23wonder about the the requirement for a video.
- 57:27Could you get some people that just sign up and do it, put
- 57:30their score out there and their thirty thousandth?
- 57:34Like does it limit people? I know you're trying to get
- 57:36people in the affiliates and stuff like that, but right, no,
- 57:40just something to think about going forward.
- 57:43Anything else before we move on? We'll have another I guess two
- 57:46weeks before the actual 25.1 World Fitness project.
- 57:53The details are out only in one place, thebarbellspin.com.
- 57:59The athletes received a an e-mail.
- 58:05The pro athletes received an e-mail earlier this week that
- 58:09gave out some information. I think that a lot of people
- 58:13would like to know prize purse movement lists, which I guess
- 58:18it's official now. We know exactly what movements
- 58:22can and cannot be programmed and the point system for the pro
- 58:26Division I guess before we get into all of the details.
- 58:33Damn, not the 30 day fitness challenge.
- 58:36Isn't there today. It's good.
- 58:38Click on it. It's a it's a good, good
- 58:42program. Pays me when you click on it
- 58:44anyway. I love how Google does that.
- 58:50Going to the pro athletes first. I have no idea when somebody
- 58:56like myself, a challenger, would get this information, but when
- 59:01it comes to like a movement list, are you OK with the pro
- 59:06athletes getting access to that first?
- 59:09It's dumb that the challengers didn't get well.
- 59:12I guess you don't know who the challengers are technically.
- 59:16I signed up for the online qualifier.
- 59:18The people who are the people who are signed up for the online
- 59:20qualifier. It should be posted on their
- 59:23website. Mertens is also there.
- 59:26Yeah, I want to take first, I'll take second.
- 59:28It'll be fine. I want to say Ibar is going to
- 59:30be a challenger too. I don't know that for a fact,
- 59:32but Colton Colton's a challenger.
- 59:38We'll see him on the leaderboard.
- 59:39What, what? What?
- 59:39Tyler. I was just trying to make a joke
- 59:41like who you talking about? Some short dude.
- 59:45Yeah, some guy it should live on the website like it.
- 59:49That's a marked feature that is different about WFP from every
- 59:53other CrossFit event we've seen is that they have actual
- 59:56movement list that they go to. We've never seen that before.
- 1:00:01So why would you not put that on your website?
- 1:00:03It makes you. It is a very different defining
- 1:00:06factor for you. Their websites operational now.
- 1:00:10It's been operational, but it hasn't had anything on it.
- 1:00:14Oh, it has all kinds of stuff on there now, have you not?
- 1:00:16Have you not gone there and looked?
- 1:00:18No. Man.
- 1:00:21I wake up every day, go to W. Just double, double check world
- 1:00:24fitness project. All right, so there and then.
- 1:00:33This is who we are. People matter more.
- 1:00:37To be honest, video some videos. Tyler you could do you do
- 1:00:45strengths and weaknesses and my and my strength can be strength.
- 1:00:52Look season overview. You got me.
- 1:00:56Are you guys excited? Season Overview.

- 1:01:31intermediate and scale divisions.

- 1:01:37for these teams in the duos does not start until March 1st, but
- 1:01:43you can click on this and then it just takes you back to the

- 1:01:53But no, there's no link for you can register for the Challenger
- 1:01:58qualifier one done that. Yeah, but there's no, there's no
- 1:02:04list of movement standards or anything like that.
- 1:02:10So to your point. Yeah, 100% Be there.
- 1:02:14I. Don't know when they're going to
- 1:02:16share it either. It's wrong thing.
- 1:02:19But you were. You were sent it.
- 1:02:21Somebody, somebody decided to send it to me and say hey.
- 1:02:25It just showed up on your. Pretty interesting actually.
- 1:02:26Yellow Hosta shared it first on a story and then World Fitness
- 1:02:30Project shared it and I was like, oh look, that looks like a
- 1:02:33movement list. And then all of a sudden.
- 1:02:36Showed up for you, huh? It showed up.
- 1:02:37Who's programming the event? Mr. Moran, he's the director of
- 1:02:42sport, yeah. That means Laura's not going to
- 1:02:44win. He likes handstand push ups.
- 1:02:48Cuz he likes him some. Strictly the strictly handstand.
- 1:02:51Any kind? Any kind?
- 1:02:53Will's got some short arms, man. I've got short arms and Will's
- 1:02:56right there with me. Dude, Will's are shorter than
- 1:02:59yours man. He's.
- 1:03:00They're really short. The World Fitness Project is
- 1:03:05here to champion and support you as we hold ourselves to the
- 1:03:08highest standard of execution and service.
- 1:03:10World Fitness Project is more than just the league.
- 1:03:12We are a team and a support system for you, the pro
- 1:03:16athletes, our community and the broader fitness space.
- 1:03:22So here's the welcome packet we will redo Redefine the sport of
- 1:03:26professional fitness. I feel welcomed.
- 1:03:34Oh, they posted the movement list while you're on the pod.
- 1:03:37They knew it. They knew we were going to do
- 1:03:39that. Well played, hey?
- 1:03:43That's good. Game recognized game.
- 1:03:46Oh, there it is. Yeah, real.
- 1:03:50It's real. It's all on one page.
- 1:03:52It's also on my website where you can see it, but there is
- 1:04:00swimming in a pool shuttle runs here it is a whole bunch of
- 1:04:07different handstand push ups. So to John's point, there's
- 1:04:10skipping and strict and strict wall facing.
- 1:04:13All those down strict. Deficit strict wall facing
- 1:04:16deficit kipping this deficit parallel.
- 1:04:19Strict deficit parallel. Good luck Laura.
- 1:04:22Laura, you're going to make the least amount of money you've
- 1:04:24made in like 8 years. Not because other movement has
- 1:04:27that many modifications. You're not doing the games and
- 1:04:30there's going to be a handstand push up event in every.
- 1:04:32Single thing. What's interesting is there's
- 1:04:37not strict ring muscle UPS. OK, fair.
- 1:04:42I I also thought it was interesting that where was it?
- 1:04:47They had box jump overs. Oh, here's more rebound or step
- 1:04:57down South rebounding box jumps. Thought that was interesting.
- 1:05:06Lots of strict pressing also also one of Will's strong suits.
- 1:05:14Do you guys like, I mean, I'll this is kind of a lot of it is
- 1:05:17really just obvious. Right.
- 1:05:20It's basically just anything and everything you could do in a
- 1:05:23gym, plus swimming. Pool, but no crossovers, no
- 1:05:26triple unders. None of the dumb stuff.
- 1:05:31No ring handstand push ups? Do you like the idea of actually
- 1:05:36publishing a list like this? I mean, it's fine.
- 1:05:39But I'm in different. I don't.
- 1:05:40I don't. Care like is anybody, if they
- 1:05:43program push ups, is anybody going to be like it's not on the
- 1:05:45list, you can't program that. 100% dude, yes.
- 1:05:54And then I, I, that's why I'm not in the WFP 'cause that'd be
- 1:05:57like you're. Obese.
- 1:05:58No, you're not in the WFP 'cause you're not fitted on Tyler.
- 1:06:01That's. No, this is the only reason,
- 1:06:03John. This is the one reason is 'cause
- 1:06:04that would be if you know if, if, if Jason said well, will
- 1:06:09push ups aren't on the list. And I'd be like, Jason, don't be
- 1:06:12a bitch, dude. Like get get out of here.
- 1:06:14Let us do push. I bet somebody would complain.
- 1:06:17Hey, hey. I think when they run on
- 1:06:20runners, I'm going to be like it, said, a treadmill.
- 1:06:23It didn't say an assault runner. I've been training on a
- 1:06:28treadmill ever since this list came out.
- 1:06:31I think I went to a been going to a Globo gym for for months
- 1:06:35now. Have all the have all the
- 1:06:37runners been tested? I I want to make sure they're
- 1:06:39all calibrated correctly. That one in lane eight I think
- 1:06:43is calibrated incorrectly. It's fair, it's fair.
- 1:06:52I can't argue with you. Excuse, excuse me, Mr. Morad.
- 1:06:56I like that you're getting more from him in your nose.
- 1:07:00Well, this. Used to be a good show one day
- 1:07:07and we. It's just off the rails.
- 1:07:09It's fine rock running sandbags. I mean, I don't know if there's
- 1:07:18anything they missed, but. There's a list.
- 1:07:26I I think what it does is there's no slow shamer, there's
- 1:07:30no back. There's no back squat.
- 1:07:33There's no innovation on movements.
- 1:07:35Was there not? Oh, no, I'm looking at dumbbell
- 1:07:41movements. Sorry.
- 1:07:43Back rack. It's back squat.
- 1:07:44It's over there. It's over there.
- 1:07:46Yeah. Searcher squat.
- 1:07:48There's not that. Nope.
- 1:07:50No searcher squat. There's no, you know, different
- 1:07:58types of carries. I assume you can't do that.
- 1:08:01I don't know. This so this just appeases the
- 1:08:07PFAA. They've been wanting this for
- 1:08:09years. You know, I wonder if this is
- 1:08:12better to find somewhere or if this is just like a bottom, you
- 1:08:16know, a base hit on trying to put put out something.
- 1:08:19I thought I saw double unders in the other.
- 1:08:21Yeah, there's. There's double unders, but
- 1:08:23there's not triple unders. No crossovers.
- 1:08:28Is there single unders? No, OK.
- 1:08:33Double or nothing but yeah it's like this just works to appease
- 1:08:37the PFAA. I really don't understand the
- 1:08:41need for movements. Like when is a movement ever
- 1:08:43come out and them be like Oh no, like we should think this is too
- 1:08:48dangerous or I mean like. I mean, you're right, it's
- 1:08:54you're limited like in this case, like Jr. with his
- 1:08:59handstand walk obstacles can't do it.
- 1:09:04I I can't do it. I think it's an interesting type
- 1:09:06thing. I love those, I think they're
- 1:09:07really cool. You know there's probably a
- 1:09:10place for a searcher. Carry a yoke.
- 1:09:14I, I, I really just indifferent. Like the athletes are going to
- 1:09:18go there. They're going to then they're
- 1:09:19going to do it. Like it's not if it's something
- 1:09:23you hadn't seen before, it's figure out who can adapt the
- 1:09:25fastest. If you're all seen it before,
- 1:09:26it's just, everybody's seen it before.
- 1:09:28Like I just, it's and it's enough things.
- 1:09:30I don't think you can like just train for it, right?
- 1:09:34Like it's enough. Like it's pretty much everything
- 1:09:36that you're gonna ever do in a gym.
- 1:09:38Sure, Ever. But you don't have to prepare
- 1:09:41for anything that's kind of off the wall.
- 1:09:43Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, that's but would you have
- 1:09:46prepared for off the wall without?
- 1:09:48People, I think practice people were practicing crossover,
- 1:09:51double unders, triple under. OK, just be like, hey, we're not
- 1:09:53doing things. But they don't.
- 1:09:55They're not going to not do that now because of the.
- 1:09:57Games. Because of the games.
- 1:09:59And then it's like your training should be generally
- 1:10:02all-encompassing so that that you like you be able to overcome
- 1:10:10anything that is weird. And then it also like it hurts
- 1:10:13them from a marketing standpoint because it's like, say they were
- 1:10:16really good at like coming out with weird new workouts or
- 1:10:19movements. Like we would talk that up all
- 1:10:22day. That's gone.
- 1:10:23That's really the biggest thing that goes away from this.
- 1:10:26I don't think Will wants to take that chance.
- 1:10:28He's already. Why we do it every year with the
- 1:10:31with Rogue? They're being, but this is a
- 1:10:33professional fitness league, Tyler.
- 1:10:35OK. Where we can't be weird.
- 1:10:39This one has no like no log muscle UPS.
- 1:10:43I, I, I, I mean, I think it's fine, but like, I don't think
- 1:10:47it's a bad thing or a good thing.
- 1:10:49I think, I think athletes could have just trained without
- 1:10:51knowing anything and now they know that there's no weird
- 1:10:53stuff. They're still going to.
- 1:10:55I guess a horizontal pegboard's kind of a weird thing, but I
- 1:10:59don't think it's going to hurt their training very much, is
- 1:11:01what I'm saying. My thing is it's like, OK, they
- 1:11:04want to do a weird movement. When did is that decided?
- 1:11:07That has to be decided. It's probably the beginning of
- 1:11:09the season before the 1st event, in which case you're telling
- 1:11:13everyone. So then we all start looking at
- 1:11:15it and it just takes a lot of the the surprise.
- 1:11:19If we Fast forward to 26 and there's something new on there,
- 1:11:22it's like we're. Going to know immediately,
- 1:11:24right? Yeah, you don't know where and
- 1:11:27when, but you might be able to make some guesses.
- 1:11:30I don't know. I I, I think I'm kind of with
- 1:11:32John, like, why even put it out there if you don't want to
- 1:11:36program interrupt, like different stuff, then just
- 1:11:39ripple under it. Just don't do it.
- 1:11:41I don't know. And then the athletes also got
- 1:11:48information on the point system. So of course, the points they're
- 1:11:53trying to accumulate the most points over the three events to
- 1:11:58earn their pro card for next year.
- 1:11:59The top 20 men and women 500 points, 485 all the way down to
- 1:12:05270 for 30th place. And then the challengers 1st
- 1:12:09through 20th get something less than that.
- 1:12:11We don't know how much, but we do have a point system.
- 1:12:17So they're not using P score Tyler or maybe I guess they make
- 1:12:20they could technically, but. Is base it off 500?
- 1:12:24500 you get for taking first, OK, we'll see how that plays
- 1:12:29out. And then the prize money,
- 1:12:32$380,000 prize purse between the two divisions, so 190,000 each
- 1:12:39for men and women and then the final has 766,000, so almost
- 1:12:45double all three events over $1.5 million paid out.
- 1:12:52Now, there's been questions, rumors that the contract money
- 1:12:58that they get applies to their prize money.
- 1:13:03I've been told today by a reputable source that that is
- 1:13:07not true, that this prize money is on top of.
- 1:13:11Yeah. I mean, I don't, I don't think
- 1:13:13you, I don't think you can do that.
- 1:13:15I don't. Do anything you want, John.
- 1:13:17No, I mean I I think it's doing the athletes dirty.
- 1:13:20If you don't pay their way. If you.
- 1:13:23Say they're winning as part of the contract.
- 1:13:25I'm like, that's not what I signed on for.
- 1:13:28Like I. Don't.
- 1:13:28Well, I mean, you would have signed it, but I'm saying like,
- 1:13:30yeah, if if you had a $20,000 contract and you took first at a
- 1:13:33tour event and made 30,000, it's like, here's an extra 10.
- 1:13:37Yeah, I don't. I think that's wrong.
- 1:13:39So I've been told that's not the case.
- 1:13:41So it's on top of it, which if it's true that these contracts
- 1:13:46are anywhere from 10 to 80, a $100,000, I imagine most are
- 1:13:51probably getting 30. From what I've gathered, that's
- 1:13:54$1.2 million for contractual amounts, $2.5 million for a
- 1:14:03price, or another $1.5 million for a prize purse.
- 1:14:07I've also been told that they're actually going to give out
- 1:14:10stipends for travel and cover the hotel for the athletes.
- 1:14:15There's another $2.5 million. So there's another.
- 1:14:19I mean, I mean, good on them though.
- 1:14:20It's really probably a meal. It no shit, it's probably a
- 1:14:23million. For all three.
- 1:14:25I mean, I think that's, I think that's awesome that they're
- 1:14:27doing that. So what's that 6,000,000?
- 1:14:32I mean, I don't know if it's that.
- 1:14:33I don't think I'd say it's that much, but.
- 1:14:35OK, say $500,000. I mean at least at least a
- 1:14:43couple 100,000. I I think at the end of the day
- 1:14:45when you think about contracted money, guaranteed price, purse,
- 1:14:51travel stipends, renting venues, doing a broadcast, I assume that
- 1:14:59the the 10 people that are listed below are all honest type
- 1:15:02of salary. I $400,000 million dollars of
- 1:15:09like out the door immediately. $500,000 is $2700 per athlete to
- 1:15:17go to an event. That's an.
- 1:15:19Expenses. What I was told.
- 1:15:24How are they? How do they make money?
- 1:15:29Well, what you do? Is well, I paid $25 for the
- 1:15:32Challenger qualifier. The Fratellis and the Goonies
- 1:15:36figured this out. You buy a printing machine and
- 1:15:38you store it in the old warehouse and you you buy paper
- 1:15:42that sell paper for this and you put it on that machine and then
- 1:15:45you you print it and you cut it and then you can put it in your
- 1:15:48wallet and give it to people. The.
- 1:15:52Challenger. The challenger that they That
- 1:15:54can't be the only the only thing.
- 1:15:57What I will say is, yeah, I mean they're basically going to do,
- 1:16:00if you're international, it's 2000, 1000 for US events for
- 1:16:05travel stipend to get you there, plus the hotel accommodations.
- 1:16:12Right, which you know that mean that can.
- 1:16:14Be all $300.00 a night at least. Dude, it sounded more and more
- 1:16:18about like Fire Festival. Man, I just can't get Will out
- 1:16:21of my head being in that big old house and his World Fitness
- 1:16:24project hat it's fire festival CrossFit version.
- 1:16:30What I've also been told is that you're supposed to put World
- 1:16:33Fitness Project in your Instagram bio, so I don't know
- 1:16:42it's. In the contract.
- 1:16:43Yeah, confirmed that if you if a Mr. Adler, right, he just tests
- 1:16:51in the waters, pulls out after an event, he just gets 33% of
- 1:16:56his contract money. So I know you guys were talking
- 1:17:00about it last week like that's it.
- 1:17:03That's that. So that is that confirmed?
- 1:17:06Yeah. I hate that I hate that for the
- 1:17:13WFP. Like that was a bad call.
- 1:17:16Dude Jeff such a Dick man if he does dude.
- 1:17:21I tell you right now, I tell you guys all the time how big of a
- 1:17:24piece of shit I am. I would 100% do that.
- 1:17:28I would 100% leave. Take take May and go to the
- 1:17:34first one. And the next thing that came up
- 1:17:36the road, if I'm just trying to make cash, 100% doing it.
- 1:17:40I'd like to believe that he's not going to do that and he just
- 1:17:43will respect the contract and and do what he wants to do.
- 1:17:48Yeah, I what's interesting, I, I thought if that, I mean, when I
- 1:17:50heard that that was kind of the rumor, it was like, well, maybe
- 1:17:54it's less than 33%, right? There's some type of breakage
- 1:17:57fee like you only get like 20%, right, So you don't get the full
- 1:18:0133%. But it looks like that is not
- 1:18:03the case if. They've made all their posts.
- 1:18:11One post per month, four stories.
- 1:18:17I hope nothing but the best for the World Fitness project.
- 1:18:20Man, I wanted I'm I hope it's, it's great.
- 1:18:23I think it's great. You remember when Pat said that
- 1:18:29he was happy that something was, you know, not having a bunch of
- 1:18:33leaks anymore? The.
- 1:18:40I've never seen one CrossFit contract other than the one we
- 1:18:43signed for the Games. That's true.
- 1:18:50Can you tell me? So like let's say they lose like
- 1:18:53$6 million. Yeah, doing doing this.
- 1:18:57Right. Would they just keep doing that?
- 1:19:03Why wouldn't you? Because.
- 1:19:05You're losing. For the athletes, I have it.
- 1:19:11I'm in there, guys. Nice, nice.
- 1:19:14So I'm a WFP challenger athlete. I'm pulling my contract.
- 1:19:18Desk, Sir, She. Getting ready you showing them
- 1:19:21you're ready. I am like I'm ready to do this.
- 1:19:25So not dead, don't you, I? Don't want to do that.
- 1:19:30I mean, I think it's crazy. I think it's pretty wild they
- 1:19:32even can pull it off one year like listening to how much
- 1:19:35everything is. It's wild, right?
- 1:19:38The fact that they're going to give this kind of money to them
- 1:19:41like and like, I mean, I think it's awesome.
- 1:19:43They're paying for their flights and stuff.
- 1:19:45I all of this money that like you've just said, I think it's
- 1:19:48amazing they could even do this this year if it is something
- 1:19:53they can keep on doing. I don't know how, but but if
- 1:20:00they can keep but if they can keep on doing it like I think we
- 1:20:03should support it. I.
- 1:20:06Don't have. I mean, Natalie, you got a good
- 1:20:07point. This is what we do at Heat One.
- 1:20:10We just can't operate anyone. Yeah.
- 1:20:14But Natalie, those are those losses, $6 million.
- 1:20:19Could be. Could be.
- 1:20:25Yeah, $30,000 first place prize that's.
- 1:20:30Somebody help me please. That's that's amazing.
- 1:20:31That's amazing boats and hoes. 30,000 for the 1st place prize,
- 1:20:4125 for second, third gets 20,000 tenth to 15th all get the same
- 1:20:47amount, 5000. And then you just show up, go
- 1:20:52through the motions of cool, $1500 for last place and 270
- 1:20:58valuable WFP season points and then the the end of season
- 1:21:05payout. I guess this would be the the
- 1:21:07finals 75,000 first place prize, so $135,000 if you go win the
- 1:21:18the Grand Slam, I guess it would be like a triple slam.
- 1:21:20I don't know. No, it's a Grand Slam.
- 1:21:23Grand Slam's 4. There's only three events
- 1:21:25though, John. But there's one final.
- 1:21:28There's 2 events in a final. That's why you were confusing me
- 1:21:31about this last. Week, OK.
- 1:21:34Oh man, I thought there was more than that.
- 1:21:36They're getting paid $6 million for that well.
- 1:21:41I mean, they're going to be, I mean, that's their, that's their
- 1:21:42outlay, yes. OK, then it would be I I I
- 1:21:48Triple Crown or a cycle. Triple, triple slam, triple
- 1:21:51slam, Triple Crown. No, no.
- 1:21:53Triple slam, well, Triple Crown is that's in the that's that's
- 1:21:56horse racing, I guess. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:21:57But I thought we were going to do that for like CrossFit
- 1:21:59competitions, not functional fitness competitions.
- 1:22:03What about like a? Brian's already called it.
- 1:22:06It's already, it's already the Dubai Tijuana Palooza and.
- 1:22:09Stop. Dubai's not real.
- 1:22:11And road, that's the, that's the CrossFit Triple Crown if you
- 1:22:17have to come up with something else.
- 1:22:19We we should come up with some. We can, we can come up with
- 1:22:21something. I like to call it the three
- 1:22:22finger money. WFP hats will cost $100 and
- 1:22:27shirts will be 250 or if you volunteer, you will get some of
- 1:22:31that exclusive swag to wear out there as a judge or as a
- 1:22:36volunteer. So go sign up for that.
- 1:22:38Indianapolis, May 9th to 11th or something like that.
- 1:22:42Meet me there, I'll see you there.
- 1:22:45Are you going to be our our on the floor correspondent Tyler
- 1:22:47I'm. Getting my press credentials
- 1:22:50currently, yeah. I'm sure we'll be the first ones
- 1:22:53approved for sure. It'd be a bad move if they, I
- 1:22:58mean like don't give them to us if you don't want to, but.
- 1:23:01I don't think they will, Tyler. I don't know.
- 1:23:03You know, I don't think you have to tell.
- 1:23:04Them. I think that would be dumb.
- 1:23:07I mean, we're covering it, nobody else.
- 1:23:09You can't find this stuff anywhere else.
- 1:23:10Well, you can't move the standards now, but.
- 1:23:12No, no, no. Listen, listen.
- 1:23:14If they don't, if they don't want to, then they've made their
- 1:23:18bed, then we won't talk about them.
- 1:23:20And it's your fault. It's not our fault.
- 1:23:22We tried. I'm getting in and you won't
- 1:23:28stop me. $3000 for last. Place and I'm going to burn it
- 1:23:33to the ground. So if you are last place in the
- 1:23:38pro division, every single time, you'll walk away with $6000 of
- 1:23:43prize money. That's not a Batman.
- 1:23:44They make it very it's it's tantalizing.
- 1:23:51The $3000 prize burst. Well, no, just like just by
- 1:23:54showing up you get $6000, but like they're going to pay for
- 1:23:57your flights and everything and like everything's going to be
- 1:23:59handled. You just, it's just an
- 1:24:00inconvenience to you and then you have $6000.
- 1:24:03What I don't know is what I don't know is that for like a
- 1:24:05challenger like myself, if that's covered.
- 1:24:09No. You're on your own.
- 1:24:11There's no way, because what if there's a million challengers?
- 1:24:14There's. No, it's the actual in person
- 1:24:16like so when you do the when I do the Challenger and I finished
- 1:24:19in the side inside the top 10, I get to go to the pro division.
- 1:24:22And. Then 11th through 30th get to go
- 1:24:25to the Challenger division. So it'll be me, Colton, probably
- 1:24:30Tudor, I don't know, Ruan maybe, you know, we'll be getting all
- 1:24:38the pro division spots and then like a borrow, we'll get a
- 1:24:42Challenger pass, right? And so, you know, I don't know,
- 1:24:48I don't know if the Challengers get paid to go fly around or
- 1:24:52they just have to fight for their prize purse.
- 1:24:54But I think if nothing else, like if this highlights like you
- 1:25:01just said, John, it's probably 5 to $6 million to run this first
- 1:25:04season, right? And at last place, you're
- 1:25:10walking home, walking away with $6000 if you take 10th or 20th
- 1:25:17in every single event, right? So now you get a pro card, 20th,
- 1:25:2120th, 20th probably ends up that way.
- 1:25:24You get $10,000 plus your contract.
- 1:25:30Like it's not a lot of money. Rolling, dude, it's an
- 1:25:35opportunity, OK? You're thinking too small.
- 1:25:42There's going to be so many vendors and so many brands that
- 1:25:45want to be a part of this huge. No.
- 1:25:49But what I mean, what I mean is it's hard.
- 1:25:52Like if you don't know, give somebody.
- 1:25:54Everything is paid for. Everything's paid for.
- 1:25:56No. Then you're not living.
- 1:25:57It's not a loss. Yeah, like you just have to show
- 1:26:01up, dude, and then you're getting 10 grand.
- 1:26:03I think it's a pretty sweet deal.
- 1:26:08So $10,000. If you said, hey, I need you to
- 1:26:12come, come to this thing three times and I'll give you $10,000,
- 1:26:17Do I have to pay for flights? Nope.
- 1:26:18We'll pay for everything. You just have to.
- 1:26:20Be here but train 7 hours a day and.
- 1:26:22I mean, just train your normal day and then you have to do this
- 1:26:25whenever I call on you to do this three times a year for
- 1:26:2810,000, absolutely. Plus your base of the 30.
- 1:26:32Absolutely. Maybe if you're 30, is it maybe
- 1:26:3630? It's 10. 1000 even if you're 10
- 1:26:38I would do it like for 20,000. Dude, these people aren't making
- 1:26:42people who are finishing 20th place.
- 1:26:44They're not making 20 that doesn't like that's probably
- 1:26:47twice as much. They're doubling what they make
- 1:26:50with the CrossFit game season, I'm willing to bet.
- 1:26:54You're looking at it from, yeah, it's great to get just like free
- 1:26:57money. What I'm talking about is
- 1:26:58though, is like they keep saying like we want them to be pro
- 1:27:02athletes to be supported by, they can make a career out of
- 1:27:07this, right? They're, they're making a
- 1:27:08career. They're making a career out of
- 1:27:09this by sponsorships and the games on top of it, right.
- 1:27:15But if you told somebody you're going to make, you're getting a
- 1:27:17$10,000 contract and they qualify to be a pro next year,
- 1:27:20you're going to get $20,000 of prize money.
- 1:27:24That's very sustainable. Versus what though?
- 1:27:26Versus what? What are they doing right now?
- 1:27:28Well, my whole point is like to get to a point of where it's
- 1:27:32sustainable, where a, a, a top 20 athlete in the world makes
- 1:27:39significantly more money, That's like a sport worth, you know,
- 1:27:43professional sport worthy. Like how much more of that, like
- 1:27:46that 5 to $6 million blows up to $10 million now.
- 1:27:50Like, it's so expensive to run a league where there's that much
- 1:27:56prize money out there, that much money available for these
- 1:27:59athletes. No, I don't.
- 1:28:00It's a hard. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:28:01Scale. That's that was my whole point.
- 1:28:03Of it OK OK, OK it's right like the scale of it is not gonna.
- 1:28:06Yeah. Like I'm not saying like, hey,
- 1:28:07it's not, it's not great to get $20,000 for going to three more
- 1:28:12competitions and being flown there.
- 1:28:13But how are you going to? Scale it.
- 1:28:15But how do you scale it? Like now you need $10 million a
- 1:28:19year, $15 million a year to run this.
- 1:28:21So the athletes, you know. That you're just make 50.
- 1:28:23To $100,000 if you're the low end.
- 1:28:26Like. What's that?
- 1:28:28And and you're just losing this like you're not getting.
- 1:28:31This is before one event get pops off.
- 1:28:33Yeah, this is what you're outlaying.
- 1:28:36No, Yeah, yeah. I think it's a really hard thing
- 1:28:39to grow. Back in the napkin.
- 1:28:43So it's like we're looking at like about 6,000,000 before
- 1:28:46we've even put on an event. We're looking at another, I
- 1:28:51would say maybe 2,000,000 per event.
- 1:28:54No, I'm saying that includes it. 2.
- 1:28:57Million, yeah, yeah, you got, you got to knock down whatever
- 1:28:59you're thinking like by like 4. Million.
- 1:29:01OK, all right, fine. So.
- 1:29:02I'm saying 6,000,000 is the entire the entire.
- 1:29:05Thing is, is everything, Yeah. So and then you're going to have
- 1:29:08three events, so that's 2 million an event sponsorships
- 1:29:13like say you have 10 killer sponsors that are all at $50,000
- 1:29:20a piece is $500,000. So you're at $1.5 million that
- 1:29:24you're left to cover. Besides that, how many tickets
- 1:29:30you said you planning on selling?
- 1:29:33Well, they're $100 for a three day pass.
- 1:29:35And I don't think they're going to sell very many tickets, man.
- 1:29:38You can do the $100. Yeah. 15,000 Tickets No.
- 1:29:43Big hell yeah you can do that. That's the Games 3.
- 1:29:48Games. And all the best people are
- 1:29:51going to be there, so why wouldn't all the IT would be the
- 1:29:54same as the games, right? Yeah, everybody wants to come
- 1:29:58hang out in. Indiana, the hats are 200 or no.
- 1:30:00Hats are $100 like the hats. That's what Barry said.
- 1:30:04Barry Mccochner said hats are 100, shirts are 250.
- 1:30:08No, I think he's joking. I was.
- 1:30:12Meant to lose it. It's like, it's like a, it's
- 1:30:15like a yeezy like, like like. Yeah, I like Travis.
- 1:30:19You need to up your prices real bad.
- 1:30:20Jesus. I mean it's.
- 1:30:25Not joking. I don't know, sorry, without a
- 1:30:32broadcast deal nothing is sustainable.
- 1:30:36That's true Jenny, the real dense updates.
- 1:30:40What a tier. Sorry, Tiruadapalooza did not
- 1:30:43sell 5000 tickets. Grant.
- 1:30:47This sounds about as fiscally stable as opening a buy one
- 1:30:51$5.00 bill get one free emporium.
- 1:30:57Actually, that's why we bought the money machine, so we could.
- 1:31:04Actually, I mean it's, and again like that, that's what I'm like
- 1:31:09they're spending a ton of money on this.
- 1:31:12Like the scalability of how to actually increase that is rough.
- 1:31:16I'm actually excited to see how they do it.
- 1:31:20I mean, it could be it. The thing about the Fyre
- 1:31:24Festival was is it had the potential to be so cool.
- 1:31:29And it was so bad. So listen, listen, listen.
- 1:31:34I'm excited either way. I'm going to choose to be an
- 1:31:38optimistic person. I'm going to choose to hope for
- 1:31:41the success of the World Fitness project.
- 1:31:43You're hoping that Jeff doesn't just.
- 1:31:45Ban on it. And no, no, listen, Jeff's going
- 1:31:48to do what Jeff's going to do. I'm not going to act like I know
- 1:31:51what Jeff is in Jeff's head. I will approach that whenever it
- 1:31:56happens. Like when any, when any athlete
- 1:31:58gives me a reason to talk about him, I'll approach it when that
- 1:32:00happens. I'm not going to preemptively
- 1:32:02talk about it. True, there's no units on this
- 1:32:04these money here. But I'm going to hope for the
- 1:32:07best and I if they, if they do find a way to freaking grow it,
- 1:32:11man, like it's going to be one of the most awesome things ever.
- 1:32:15It really, really will be. And that's going to be really
- 1:32:18cool. And on the greater percentage
- 1:32:22side that it it will fail really badly.
- 1:32:28It's also going to be entertaining in a way, you know,
- 1:32:32you know what I'm saying, but. I We're just here for it.
- 1:32:34This is my thing about the fire fest.
- 1:32:37People are saying, oh, Tyler loves the fire festival.
- 1:32:40I would have killed to be one of those people that got stuck on
- 1:32:44the island while everything was up in flames.
- 1:32:47I would have loved that so much. I love that kind of thing.
- 1:32:53I love chaos. I would have killed for that.
- 1:32:56So yes, I'm about it. Let's party will.
- 1:32:58Let's do it, baby. I.
- 1:33:01I don't. I don't.
- 1:33:02I wonder who's in charge of all the like, athlete coordination,
- 1:33:07cutting, stipend checks cutting. This is a good.
- 1:33:10One managing hotels. That's that's hey you, you
- 1:33:19should make. That should be a shirt.
- 1:33:22That should be a shirt. Yeah, not or like you can even
- 1:33:25make it like we're not saying I'm going to die, but there will
- 1:33:28be signs like like a like a a workout shirt.
- 1:33:31You know what I mean? Oh, dudes, sign me up.
- 1:33:35If they have Creed come out and and and and sing before they
- 1:33:40start, before they start doing their workout, you know, that
- 1:33:44would be amazing. Maybe they got to climb stairs
- 1:33:47and then yeah dude, I'm all about it.
- 1:33:54Zone 2 didn't tier, sorry. Tiruata Palooza.
- 1:33:58Let's get it right. Tiruata Palooza get 800,000 from
- 1:34:01Miami that is for 2026. I've heard they may have gotten
- 1:34:04something for 25 to move it to Miami Beach, but I do not know.
- 1:34:08Do you think if you're if you're Indianapolis, you're you're WFB
- 1:34:16and you're yeah. And you're, you're pitching this
- 1:34:18idea. They have not run.
- 1:34:22Indianapolis is pumped for the world fitness project.
- 1:34:26They won the lottery. And they're pitching this idea
- 1:34:28to the city or whoever you. Know was going to the little
- 1:34:32Colts Stadium. Yeah, so they're pitching the
- 1:34:35Colts admin. They have no proof of product.
- 1:34:41There's no way the Colts are giving them $500,000.
- 1:34:45They're they're paying rent for this facility.
- 1:34:46Yes, yeah. They're not receiving any sort
- 1:34:50of rebate or whatever. I doubt it.
- 1:34:55That's part of that's part of the $6 million that we just
- 1:34:56started trying to calculate. Pull up the venue where it's
- 1:35:04located. I'll try to get to that.
- 1:35:05We're running out of time, though.
- 1:35:07Athlete safety Josh Hicks, the Josh Hicks is he is the event
- 1:35:14emergency activation and medical advisor.
- 1:35:19You are going to be safe while competing in the World Fitness
- 1:35:23project and then also Saxon Panchick, he was announced he
- 1:35:28would not be competing anymore. That's why Jeff Adler signed up.
- 1:35:33Saxon is now the head of community development And so
- 1:35:37there are 10 individuals listed at the back of their little
- 1:35:42thing. I just typed them out so that I
- 1:35:44didn't feel like they shouldn't have their e-mail addresses
- 1:35:46blasted everywhere. So Miss Isabella Terry, the
- 1:35:51daughter of Miss Gillette, is the executive director.
- 1:35:56Her husband Jackson Terry is the director of operations.
- 1:35:59Will more add the director of sport, the Dave Castro of the
- 1:36:02World Fitness Project, Ryan Husband and Maggie Husband,
- 1:36:08directors of stuff and Saxon Pan Chick, as I mentioned, Jason and
- 1:36:13Heidi Ansley also doing stuff with events.
- 1:36:17Diana Queretto, Queretto Queretto executive Director.
- 1:36:24She's the admin, I think essentially and Roger Nielsen,
- 1:36:29European Event Director, that is your.
- 1:36:32Husband, husband, wife. Yeah.
- 1:36:37They're more than just a sport, John, They're a they're a
- 1:36:40family. They're a family.
- 1:36:44Clock that would be 3 husband and wife teams, the Terry's, the
- 1:36:48husbands and the Ansleys so. Head of the.
- 1:36:53Initiatives is is an interesting title I it makes me actually
- 1:36:58kind of hopeful that Saxons involved.
- 1:37:03Why wouldn't he be? Why wouldn't he be involved?
- 1:37:09Yeah. I don't know, but like my
- 1:37:12biggest qualm with WFP is that like if they don't get the
- 1:37:16community engagement and participation off the ground,
- 1:37:21doesn't matter how much you're paying everybody, you're only
- 1:37:23going to be able to do that for one season.
- 1:37:26Yeah. No, you need to have the 600
- 1:37:28people there for sure. You need those community
- 1:37:32divisions, which just a quick plug for community divisions, if
- 1:37:36you are near Knoxville, plan on going to Knoxville for Syndicate
- 1:37:41Crown May 30th through June 1st. The registration for the
- 1:37:46community events is open. Really.
- 1:37:50Yeah. So.
- 1:37:54What all divisions do they have? It's four person teams.
- 1:37:57I think it's like elite RX and they're not calling it or
- 1:38:01they're not calling it those, but it's like there's an elite
- 1:38:03division, RX division to intermediate or scale division.
- 1:38:07So there's like 3 divisions for that, maybe more, but I know at
- 1:38:11least those 3. So no game spots.
- 1:38:15But like again, it's like a a primer if you're a team, right?
- 1:38:19That that may go to the CrossFit Games or just missed out be a
- 1:38:24good competition, that level of competition and then RX and then
- 1:38:29throw your kind of yeah. That'll actually be interesting
- 1:38:32for us this season because I would imagine like a lot of the
- 1:38:35games teams do end up competing at some of the semifinals in the
- 1:38:39in, you know, like in the community leaves.
- 1:38:42Yeah. And.
- 1:38:42I get some time together. I mean, I think it's important.
- 1:38:45I mean, Jr. Crescendo should be big, same
- 1:38:50type of thing. Like if you're planning on going
- 1:38:52and competing at the game, that's probably a good, good
- 1:38:54competition to go to, yeah. You're going to need a tune up,
- 1:38:56but we'll have to do some actual digging to find out.
- 1:38:59Like we'll have to keep our our nose to the ground on that one.
- 1:39:02Yeah, maybe CrossFit, Hendersonville will be there.
- 1:39:05All right, let's wrap it up here.
- 1:39:06Blind rankings. I think John, you are going to
- 1:39:09love this one. You are going to be big fan.
- 1:39:14I usually hate them, so we'll see what we'll see.
- 1:39:17Big big fan of this one. Can almost, can almost.
- 1:39:22I feel like I'm not going to like it.
- 1:39:24I feel like you're you're making this like a.
- 1:39:26We've already talked about it today, tonight, just recently,
- 1:39:30and you guys are almost ruining it.
- 1:39:34I'm thinking about the 2025 CrossFit Games in Albany, NY and
- 1:39:41when there's some breaks in the action, Should CrossFit bring a
- 1:39:49musical performance? Yeah, halftime show.
- 1:39:55Dude that would be cool we. Did get kind of.
- 1:39:58And so. You were not going to agree on
- 1:40:01at all on this. R Kelly, number one.
- 1:40:04Come on. And so in 20, in 2017, they had
- 1:40:10like in the beer garden, they hadn't somebody come and sing
- 1:40:14like afterwards. I don't know how well attended.
- 1:40:16Oh no. We got to go.
- 1:40:16To the floor. I'm saying like now you're in an
- 1:40:18arena, you have time have a have a have a concert to entertain
- 1:40:24them in between events. Let's do it.
- 1:40:28Enough people in our group, we could actually we could actually
- 1:40:31do this. I don't know what you're talking
- 1:40:34about. A band.
- 1:40:35We're going to be the band. We're going to be the live
- 1:40:36performance. Yeah.
- 1:40:38Yeah, Right. This is going badly all right.
- 1:40:41Dicks don't even know the name of my band.
- 1:40:45See. So, but I'm on a panel called
- 1:40:49Spanning my Friends, and over here we've got a short man, said
- 1:40:56Van. You just, you just keep going.
- 1:41:01And there is Hailer. Yeah.
- 1:41:02His name is Batman. It's.
- 1:41:07That rapping you see sounds save the top spot for Haley.
- 1:41:12She will do the national anthem, not the halftime.
- 1:41:15Show not the hat. We're having fun at the halftime
- 1:41:17show. It's not.
- 1:41:17Great. It's a party, all right?
- 1:41:19You're gonna rank halftime show. Brian Brandon Haley with kill.
- 1:41:32Is is is Brian just sitting in a chair listening to him?
- 1:41:36Like I'm trying to figure out what's going on here.
- 1:41:43Natalie, you're right. But here we go.
- 1:41:45First one, first one, Post Malone.
- 1:41:49I like Post Malone. I feel like he does a lot of
- 1:41:52different genres. OK, I'm good.
- 1:41:55Too. Wow, you actually I think
- 1:41:58Postie's good. You want you want to wait for
- 1:42:01something to really knock your socks off.
- 1:42:03But like Post, Malone's got stuff that everybody likes.
- 1:42:06I don't love Post Malone, but like, I I can listen to his
- 1:42:09shit. I also dig that he can do rap
- 1:42:11and rock'n'roll. Yeah, and country.
- 1:42:13He's got a huge range. Yeah, no, I agree.
- 1:42:16And I'm I'm with you. Like there's none of his songs.
- 1:42:18It's like, oh, I like, but I but I do like his music is but it's
- 1:42:23not like I have yeah, I'm going to I we're 100% in lockstep.
- 1:42:27On this, yeah, yeah. Yeah, Vindicate wants to know
- 1:42:29where they're getting the budget.
- 1:42:30That's I don't know. He'd be like I wrote this song
- 1:42:35about Gee when I saw him running on the 5K course.
- 1:42:39I need some help. That's it.
- 1:42:43That's all I know about song. That's why you're blocked.
- 1:42:47That's why you're blocked. Next one Bad Bunny.
- 1:42:53I'm OK, Cool. Isn't he like the most popular
- 1:42:57artist out there or something? I don't.
- 1:42:58Mean because he sings. He's Spanish.
- 1:43:01Well. I don't know, I just I'm trying
- 1:43:04to play up to the community. I have no idea who he does.
- 1:43:07Couldn't tell you one song, but supposedly he's popular.
- 1:43:11So all right, you guys don't like?
- 1:43:12Him for the first Anytime I see Bad Bunny, I have to remember
- 1:43:15it's not Bad Baby. And then I'm even more.
- 1:43:19Who is bad baby? That's Catch Me Outside.
- 1:43:23It's that girl. Is she Australian?
- 1:43:27No, that's how she says it. Her voice doesn't drop 3
- 1:43:32octaves. I.
- 1:43:35Don't know about the. Octaves.
- 1:43:36I picked up what you were talking about, but man, that's
- 1:43:40how. She does it dude.
- 1:43:41You dude, that's bad baby. On some on some big Mama
- 1:43:44steroids, that's what that is. Cash me out soy.
- 1:43:48That's what you that's. How you got to say it?
- 1:43:52All right, bad bunnies out there in #5 next one.
- 1:43:56Lock step so far, Tyler. The Foo Fighters. 4.
- 1:44:05John, who else is on this list? I don't, I don't know.
- 1:44:08These are all three really different people.
- 1:44:12Taylor Swift's probably one of them because she's like, she is
- 1:44:15the biggest singer in the world. Foo Fighters are played out, but
- 1:44:23I don't know that anybody's going to do a better show than
- 1:44:25Foo Fighters. OK, I agree that they have a
- 1:44:27good show, but like I you weren't at the CrossFit game,
- 1:44:30you're trying to get pumped up like I just no dude.
- 1:44:33Any other songs? No, yes.
- 1:44:35Yes, they're all. Fucking The Pretender in my
- 1:44:38opinion is their Best Song and it just takes so long to get
- 1:44:41there. I say 4.
- 1:44:44No, they got monkey wrench. That one like is immediate.
- 1:44:48I'll go with four. I don't care.
- 1:44:49I I was going to say 3, but we'll go 4.
- 1:44:52Four. All right.
- 1:44:55I mean, Creed's number one man, Creed needs to be on here.
- 1:44:58Creed sucks ass. Dude, dude, dude, Creed's
- 1:45:01amazing. Creed sucks so bad.
- 1:45:04They only have 4 songs that are worth anything, but those four
- 1:45:07songs just hit so. That's how ACDC is, but they
- 1:45:10have. ACDC hits so hard, like like,
- 1:45:14all right dudes, go ahead all. Right next one Morgan Wallen.
- 1:45:22Again, like, like I'm trying to get pumped up, man.
- 1:45:25And like these aren't I thought. You didn't like to get pumped
- 1:45:27up. I thought you liked all this pop
- 1:45:28stuff, country stuff, like just I don't like Morgan.
- 1:45:32Wallen at all. Put him in three.
- 1:45:36OK. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
- 1:45:38Will you, if we both agree on this, just so me and Tyler can
- 1:45:41feel like like perfect about this, is if we can put Foo
- 1:45:47Fighters at 3 and Morgan Wallin at 4:00?
- 1:45:50Because I think no. It works.
- 1:45:55Can't open that up. John's going to get his wish.
- 1:45:58It's going to be greed. And the last one.
- 1:46:05Oh. Well, that's, that's fine.
- 1:46:07That's. Fine, the fans will like.
- 1:46:09It yeah, yeah, the fans, the fans will like it.
- 1:46:11Oh. Will they?
- 1:46:12Yes they will. CrossFit fans will like Taylor
- 1:46:15Swift. Dude, everybody likes to.
- 1:46:17Dude, you just don't want. To you just don't want to admit
- 1:46:19admit about it you can. I don't like her.
- 1:46:22You might not like her new stuff, but then you like her own
- 1:46:24stuff like. That's not true.
- 1:46:26She tried to she tried to cancel my boy John Mayer.
- 1:46:29And so I've been anti Taylor Swift ever since get booed.
- 1:46:35The tickets would sell out instantly, yeah.
- 1:46:40Yeah, dude, dude, you would sell so many tickets.
- 1:46:42The resell tickets would be insane.
- 1:46:47OK, so if you had to redo the list, I think I would put Post
- 1:46:52Malone 1, Taylor 2, Foo Fighters 3, Morgan Wallin 4, Bad Bunny 5.
- 1:47:01Foo Fighters won Post Malone, Morgan Wall and Taylor Swift.
- 1:47:05Bad Bunny. You just don't like Taylor Swift
- 1:47:06because it's a cool thing to do right now, not like.
- 1:47:08Taylor Swift. I literally have always hated
- 1:47:11Taylor Swift. She she writes music for people
- 1:47:15who have an IQ of under 6, and evidently that's most of the
- 1:47:19United States. Well, guess what?
- 1:47:22She has never had a real experience here in her entire
- 1:47:24life. My my IQ is over that.
- 1:47:28I don't I. Don't and I and I like Taylor
- 1:47:31Swift. You're also an anomaly.
- 1:47:32You're shredded and you eat McDonald's.
- 1:47:34You. I mean, I'm a big.
- 1:47:35Fast of your own. I'm a big Swifty fan, just I'll
- 1:47:39hurt myself so. That just blow it through the
- 1:47:43roof. Tickets for $2000.
- 1:47:46Dude, you know what's my like favorite workout song of all the
- 1:47:48time is like my favorite song to work out to is No Air by Jordan
- 1:47:54Sparks. I have hurt so bad to that song
- 1:47:59and for some reason whenever she just sings the chorus it just
- 1:48:03fills me with energy and I don't know how but dude No Air by
- 1:48:08Jordan Sparks is my most favorite song to work out to.
- 1:48:12Of all the times to tell me to stop talking, it's the time that
- 1:48:15I have a problem. With Taylor Swift, I feel like
- 1:48:17he's speaking like the voice of reason right now.
- 1:48:20Like I'm OK with being the one that's.
- 1:48:23Wrong. No, no, not, no, not that.
- 1:48:26And like, like, come on you, you know, but I'm OK with being
- 1:48:29wrong. Christian, we need more
- 1:48:35diversity in this list, so I just looked up the betting odds
- 1:48:40for 2026 Super Bowl halftime show and picked out some of the
- 1:48:45ones I almost had. I had Creed on there, but Foo
- 1:48:49Fighters beat that out and then I also had Tim McGraw instead of
- 1:48:53Morgan Wallin. But.
- 1:48:54Tim McGraw was up there. He does CrossFit, so that's why
- 1:48:56I was going to put him up. Oh, I like that.
- 1:48:58I like that. Yeah, you're kind of limited a
- 1:49:01little bit with who you can pick.
- 1:49:04Believe it or not, Travis, it's not the first time that.
- 1:49:07Somebody. Someone has asked me that.
- 1:49:09I'm pretty sure the entire first year I was on Sevon they were
- 1:49:14trying to decide if I was gay or not.
- 1:49:16Like, like, wholeheartedly. OK, Pat, I'll, I'll, I'll see it
- 1:49:22a little and I'll say that it maybe it's not got to do with
- 1:49:25low IQ at all. It's got to do with absolutely
- 1:49:29no taste. Zero.
- 1:49:31You have terrible taste. I'm I'm fine with that, aren't
- 1:49:34we? See ya.
- 1:49:40That's it. It's kind of slow, like as much
- 1:49:44as we're coming up to the CrossFit Open, like all of the,
- 1:49:48I mean, if it wasn't for world fitness project, you'd just be
- 1:49:50kind of waiting for the open to start.
- 1:49:53Can I ask you? Thank you.
- 1:49:54Thank you, Will H. WFB.
- 1:49:55Can I ask you guys a question? If you could pick one person for
- 1:49:59your halftime show, who would you pick?
- 1:50:01Just period of it, yeah, yeah. You can pick.
- 1:50:04I mean, he put Taylor freaking Swift.
- 1:50:06You think we're going to get her to do a halftime show?
- 1:50:08No. So like like and and it's been
- 1:50:11you 2 like if you can pick one person, one or you know, band or
- 1:50:15whatever, who would you pick? But I'm picking for.
- 1:50:21I'm picking for. People.
- 1:50:24I'm not picking for me. Pick Yeah, No, no, no.
- 1:50:27Yeah. Pick.
- 1:50:27Pick what? Just pick a combination.
- 1:50:34Miss Ben gets it. She gets.
- 1:50:35It she was, she was so mad during halftime.
- 1:50:37She's like she saw somebody on Twitter X comment Creed and
- 1:50:42she's like, I love it. I'm like, I would hate it so
- 1:50:44much. I do not want to hear him.
- 1:50:48I would pick what's this guy? The guy behind Moonlight.
- 1:50:55Dancing in the moonlight. No moonlight.
- 1:50:58So he's a DJ. So he does like these.
- 1:51:00Oh my. Gosh.
- 1:51:02He does this. He remixes the.
- 1:51:08OK. I it would be a DJI would get a
- 1:51:11D. J You would get a DJ so like
- 1:51:13like a marshmallow man. Yeah, or like.
- 1:51:16I could see Marshmallow Man. I, I, I could get down with
- 1:51:19that. I could get down with
- 1:51:20Marshmallow Man. It's what's his name?
- 1:51:24What's his What's his real name? The guy with the marshmallow
- 1:51:27head. Yeah, is is he?
- 1:51:30Do they have real names? What is he called?
- 1:51:32I have no idea. I feel weird saying Marshmallow
- 1:51:36Man, but I can get down with that guy or like a DJ just
- 1:51:40mixing up stuff. But I feel like they argue that
- 1:51:43and nobody pays attention to it. Deadmouth, they're they're
- 1:51:51another one, right That kind of DJs it up.
- 1:51:56It's just marshmallow. I'm going to rock with
- 1:52:01Marshmallow Man. I'd rather say Marshmallow Man
- 1:52:03than just than just Marshmallow. John gets to introduce him and
- 1:52:07this is Marshmallow Marshmallow Man.
- 1:52:13Yeah, I don't. I don't.
- 1:52:15Think. I listen to anything that would
- 1:52:16be appropriate for. Yeah, it's like if I want, if I
- 1:52:22had my way, it would be like Krangman and everybody would
- 1:52:25hate it so. OK.
- 1:52:27No, you're picking for. You're picking for people too
- 1:52:29you. That's why I said.
- 1:52:30You want to like it, but you're picking for people too.
- 1:52:32I can get down to your choice. Spin.
- 1:52:33Who'd you get? I mean, the Marshmallow Man's
- 1:52:39the best one I've heard. I I listen to screaming music,
- 1:52:45inappropriate rap and electronic music, so.
- 1:52:51Ice Cube would go fucking hard. I could do that.
- 1:52:56I'd do ice cube for days. I don't, I don't know, man.
- 1:53:00I feel like you'll get a little bit of like how how the Kendrick
- 1:53:03Lamar thing went for people. No, that's that's the whole
- 1:53:06point. Like I don't think the music
- 1:53:08that Tyler and I listen to on completely different spectrum
- 1:53:12would be appreciated or liked by 12,000 people.
- 1:53:17Oh, Killer Mike. And.
- 1:53:25I don't know who that is, I'm sorry.
- 1:53:29Run the jewels, Run the jewels would be good.
- 1:53:31OK, yeah, I've heard. Yeah, I've heard that.
- 1:53:33They they have entertaining shit, he can clean it up when he
- 1:53:36needs to. They're fun.
- 1:53:38Yeah, on the jewels. Yep.
- 1:53:45There you go. Yeah.
- 1:53:47I'm gonna, I'm gonna rock with, I'm gonna rock with Chris Brown.
- 1:53:50Chris Brown. Like, yeah, yeah, he's got some.
- 1:53:54He's got some songs. I'm really.
- 1:53:55Didn't he have some scandal back like a few years ago?
- 1:53:58Rihanna threw his keys out the window.
- 1:54:00What do you expect him to do? She asked for it.
- 1:54:02I'm just don't, don't, don't clip that.
- 1:54:04Don't, don't, don't clip that. Garth Brooks?
- 1:54:12No Kanye West? I don't know if that would be
- 1:54:17appreciated anymore. I like Kanye.
- 1:54:22Got separate the person from the the music.
- 1:54:26Usher was like last year's Super Bowl.
- 1:54:28If we don't want to just be this.
- 1:54:29Is CrossFit word? Summer wants an Insane Clown
- 1:54:33Posse. You know anything about them?
- 1:54:36The only, the only, the only song I know about them is the is
- 1:54:39the Boogie Woogie song. That's that's that's the only
- 1:54:41song. I know.
- 1:54:46So maybe, maybe there'll be a halftime show at the CrossFit
- 1:54:48Games. I think it'll be good.
- 1:54:51They have more time. They should do something like
- 1:54:53that. Jeff, don't joke about such
- 1:54:55things. You know a grid league.
- 1:55:00When does that start, John? Is there an official schedule
- 1:55:02out yet? I can't say, but our first match
- 1:55:06will be in late May. Yeah.
- 1:55:10I think, I think, I think. Well, one day, one day we'll see
- 1:55:14out there on the competition grid for it.
- 1:55:16I'm, I'm, it's like, I'm so at like excited for when John gets
- 1:55:20to do Gridley. It feels like it's never going
- 1:55:22to come. It's coming.
