• 0:40
  coming full bangs this week
• 0:43
  and we're starting fifteen
• 0:44
  minutes early because we
• 0:46
  got meetings and we got
• 0:47
  stuff we have to do we are
• 0:49
  busy yeah so how are you
• 0:53
  doing I'm good how are you
• 0:56
  good christmas tree still
• 0:57
  up I think it's gonna stay
• 1:00
  up I have nowhere else to put it so
• 1:04
  Might as well just leave it up.
• 1:05
  That's the storage facility.
• 1:08
  I think,
• 1:09
  I think I might just make it like a,
• 1:10
  like a holiday tree and I'll get little,
• 1:12
  maybe, you know,
• 1:13
  little red bows for
• 1:14
  Valentine's day and little
• 1:16
  pink bows for Easter.
• 1:17
  And I'll just make it a year round tree.
• 1:21
  Same morning to James.
• 1:23
  What's going on?
• 1:26
  Yeah.
• 1:27
  The last, Hey Jody, what's going on?
• 1:30
  Uh, again, I mentioned it yesterday, man,
• 1:35
  being a caretaker is a lot of work.
• 1:37
  I am so tired.
• 1:40
  Um, just before we came down here, um, uh,
• 1:46
  to do this,
• 1:47
  she had to go to the bathroom
• 1:49
  and that is not like a five
• 1:50
  minute process.
• 1:52
  And she gave me like seven
• 1:53
  minutes to get it done and
• 1:54
  to get down the stairs and
• 1:56
  launch the show.
• 1:58
  Um,
• 2:00
  And, uh, yeah.
• 2:03
  And we had to get her in a
• 2:04
  machine cause she's going
• 2:05
  to PT for the first time, uh,
• 2:08
  this afternoon at two o'clock.
• 2:09
  So she's in the machine that
• 2:10
  moves her knee back and forth.
• 2:13
  Loosen her up.
• 2:14
  Yeah.
• 2:15
  Jody.
• 2:16
  I didn't just cut bangs.
• 2:18
  I cut bangs a while ago,
• 2:19
  but I've been hiding them
• 2:20
  from everyone because they
• 2:21
  are not necessarily a fan favorite, um,
• 2:24
  in my life.
• 2:25
  So, uh, we're dealing with them.
• 2:29
  luckily my hair grows like a weed.
• 2:31
  And, um,
• 2:32
  if I wanted to make it look like I
• 2:33
  didn't have bangs by like next week,
• 2:35
  I could probably pull that off too.
• 2:36
  So we'll see.
• 2:38
  It's also very dark.
• 2:39
  I don't know if you caught that, but, um,
• 2:42
  it's a lot darker than it was.
• 2:44
  So we're getting used to it.
• 2:47
  Judy says, cute.
• 2:48
  You're brave.
• 2:48
  Yeah.
• 2:50
  I've always been a pretty
• 2:52
  adventurous with my hair.
• 2:53
  People that have known me for.
• 2:54
  Twenty, thirty years, um, have seen.
• 2:57
  a wide variety of hairstyles
• 3:00
  and hair colors.
• 3:01
  So,
• 3:02
  so I've known you for five and I've
• 3:05
  seen a lot.
• 3:08
  Yeah.
• 3:08
  I can't imagine.
• 3:10
  You never saw like the
• 3:11
  blonde pixie cut or the
• 3:15
  full on red or anything like that.
• 3:16
  So yeah, you've,
• 3:17
  you have seen a lot and
• 3:19
  it's one of the things that
• 3:20
  I know a lot of people remember me by.
• 3:22
  I know people that I used to
• 3:23
  work with at Chase, you know,
• 3:24
  they'd be like, what colors are here now?
• 3:26
  like is it long or short so
• 3:30
  yeah this is the color god
• 3:31
  gave me so I feel like it
• 3:32
  should be you know the most
• 3:34
  flattering on me but it's
• 3:36
  just so uh so different
• 3:37
  than what I'm used to that
• 3:39
  it's uh it scares me
• 3:40
  sometimes I still don't
• 3:41
  recognize myself in the
• 3:42
  mirror when I look at
• 3:43
  myself I'm like who's that
• 3:45
  so I'll make a comment at
• 3:49
  risk of whatever but so
• 3:51
  when I when I first saw the
• 3:52
  bangs on tick tock
• 3:54
  like I was taken aback
• 3:56
  because you do very
• 3:57
  different with them than
• 3:59
  you do without but the more
• 4:01
  I see you with them the
• 4:03
  more it actually looks
• 4:05
  really good thank you I
• 4:08
  think it depends on what
• 4:08
  you do with your hair too
• 4:09
  because like I can put this
• 4:11
  up here and have this down
• 4:13
  and that looks very
• 4:14
  different that just took
• 4:15
  ten years off of you right
• 4:16
  that looks much better and
• 4:18
  then if I take it all the
• 4:19
  way up and put it in like a
• 4:20
  like a ponytail or a bun
• 4:22
  same thing it just
• 4:23
  creates like a whole
• 4:23
  different look so I think
• 4:25
  that's what I like about it
• 4:26
  and I can take these and
• 4:28
  like clip them up and it
• 4:30
  looks like I'm normal like
• 4:31
  I never had a haircut so
• 4:33
  yeah all that that's how I
• 4:35
  like about them they're
• 4:36
  versatile what what is the
• 4:37
  workout style well if I was
• 4:41
  working out um they're my
• 4:42
  t-one um but I usually just
• 4:45
  wear my hair down when I'm
• 4:46
  working on anyway so
• 4:47
  there's really not like I'm
• 4:48
  not wearing headbands or anything um
• 4:53
  Yeah.
• 4:54
  Like yesterday I worked out
• 4:55
  and I just put it up in a bun,
• 4:56
  left the bangs down.
• 4:57
  But sometimes when I get sick of them,
• 4:59
  if I, I'll just take these two,
• 5:01
  I have these like two
• 5:01
  little clips and I just
• 5:02
  clip them like this and
• 5:03
  then whatever happens to
• 5:04
  the rest of it happens.
• 5:06
  Yeah.
• 5:07
  Jody with a show.
• 5:08
  Yeah.
• 5:09
  We need to rate CrossFitters hairdos.
• 5:11
  Oh, that would be good.
• 5:13
  Let's do it next week.
• 5:15
  Yeah.
• 5:15
  Let's do like a top five and
• 5:17
  a bottom five.
• 5:18
  Yeah.
• 5:20
  We'll dig through Instagram
• 5:21
  and show pictures.
• 5:22
  And so that,
• 5:25
  that'll be our show idea for next week.
• 5:27
  Boys and girls.
• 5:29
  Yep.
• 5:30
  Okay.
• 5:32
  Okay.
• 5:35
  Yeah.
• 5:35
  Cause like cons had at least
• 5:38
  seven different hairdos
• 5:39
  since I've known them.
• 5:41
  Yeah.
• 5:42
  Yeah.
• 5:42
  And then you got some people
• 5:43
  that are just steady Eddie
• 5:45
  the whole time too, but yeah,
• 5:46
  that would be cool.
• 5:46
  I would like that.
• 5:48
  Let's do it.
• 5:48
  You got some interesting ones too.
• 5:49
  Like how many different
• 5:51
  haircuts has Noah had?
• 5:52
  You know,
• 5:53
  he tried the dreadlocks for a minute.
• 5:56
  He had the long haired Noah.
• 5:58
  You have the short haired Noah.
• 6:00
  How many,
• 6:00
  how many haircuts has Dave Castro had?
• 6:03
  Very good point.
• 6:04
  Right.
• 6:05
  We got some material here.
• 6:06
  Yeah.
• 6:07
  Now that we're workshopping this.
• 6:11
  Good idea.
• 6:11
  Yeah.
• 6:12
  Yeah.
• 6:13
  But I'm,
• 6:13
  I'm like two weeks away from going
• 6:15
  to get highlights again,
• 6:16
  just so everybody knows,
• 6:17
  like I'm still not,
• 6:18
  like sold on the color
• 6:19
  either because I am going
• 6:20
  gray at my roots here and
• 6:23
  with the bangs down you
• 6:24
  can't see it but when I put
• 6:26
  them up you can see and
• 6:27
  that's the whole reason why
• 6:28
  I was going lighter before
• 6:29
  in the first place so just
• 6:32
  to think about being a girl
• 6:34
  so if you have gray hair
• 6:37
  and your hair grows like a
• 6:38
  wheat does the gray grow just as fast
• 6:40
  It does,
• 6:41
  but I'm just not consistently gray
• 6:43
  everywhere.
• 6:43
  I have like five strands of gray hair,
• 6:46
  like through here.
• 6:48
  And then I just have a bunch
• 6:49
  like at my hairline,
• 6:50
  like as this starts to grow out,
• 6:52
  I'll just get like a little
• 6:53
  bit here and like a little bit there.
• 6:55
  So it's enough that you notice it,
• 6:57
  but it's not like, I mean, I,
• 6:59
  I've embraced the full gray, the white,
• 7:01
  whatever, like I'm okay with that,
• 7:03
  but sorry to fix.
• 7:06
  But it's just like these
• 7:07
  like random spots that don't look great.
• 7:10
  And they are very, like,
• 7:12
  I think it's very aging.
• 7:13
  It's not very youthful.
• 7:15
  Yeah.
• 7:16
  I go grayer as I go down.
• 7:18
  Oh yeah.
• 7:19
  Like the beard fully.
• 7:22
  And,
• 7:23
  and then I have like the Jonah Jameson
• 7:25
  from Spider-Man,
• 7:26
  the guy who owns a newspaper,
• 7:28
  like really gray in here,
• 7:30
  but like the tops, not so much.
• 7:32
  Yeah.
• 7:33
  I think I like gray hair on men.
• 7:35
  I think it's, I don't think,
• 7:38
  I don't think it ages them
• 7:39
  and I don't think it makes
• 7:40
  them look any less attractive at all.
• 7:44
  Um, even in, in facial hair,
• 7:46
  like I'm totally cool with that.
• 7:48
  But I think for women, it's just,
• 7:49
  I don't know.
• 7:50
  It's different.
• 7:50
  It's my own opinion, I guess.
• 7:52
  Yeah.
• 7:52
  I've totally embraced it.
• 7:53
  I just,
• 7:54
  I actually tried to grow the beard
• 7:56
  out again, but it's been,
• 7:58
  it's been like a year of
• 8:00
  like semi consistently shaving it.
• 8:03
  And it was, it,
• 8:05
  it was to that point where
• 8:06
  it was digging into the skin,
• 8:07
  like curling back in.
• 8:09
  And, um,
• 8:11
  and if you don't beard oil it like
• 8:13
  regularly, like it's,
• 8:14
  it's just not even possible.
• 8:17
  And my skin is more sensitive now.
• 8:19
  Cause I have not had a beard for a year.
• 8:22
  Have you ever grown a goatee?
• 8:24
  I have.
• 8:26
  What does goatee Scott look like?
• 8:28
  Do you look, I was,
• 8:29
  I was goatee Scott for probably,
• 8:30
  probably ten or fifteen years.
• 8:33
  When I was really, really heavy,
• 8:36
  like the five and a pound Scott,
• 8:37
  I thought that thinned out my face.
• 8:40
  Okay.
• 8:43
  Let's be honest.
• 8:43
  It did not.
• 8:47
  Bring the goatee back.
• 8:51
  It's been a minute.
• 8:52
  It's been, gosh,
• 8:56
  it's probably been ten years.
• 8:59
  Here's the more important question.
• 9:00
  How does Julie feel about the goatee?
• 9:03
  I don't think she really
• 9:04
  cares about facial hair.
• 9:06
  She likes whatever I do.
• 9:07
  She does not like Fu Manchu, Scott.
• 9:09
  I've done that just out of a joke,
• 9:11
  like shaved again.
• 9:13
  She does not like that at all.
• 9:17
  Especially when I come down
• 9:17
  with the Hulk Hogan.
• 9:18
  Come on, brother.
• 9:21
  And the Fu Manchu coming down.
• 9:22
  Yeah, not a big fan.
• 9:27
  Guess who's prioritizing protein?
• 9:29
  And there you go.
• 9:32
  That stuff's good.
• 9:34
  Their core power that's even
• 9:36
  like double the protein.
• 9:38
  It's so expensive, but it is so tasty.
• 9:44
  I take this and a scoop of
• 9:48
  fat-free pudding mix or
• 9:50
  sugar-free pudding mix in a blender.
• 9:53
  And then I stick it in a
• 9:54
  mason jar and I put it in
• 9:56
  the refrigerator for a few hours.
• 9:59
  And it's like protein pudding.
• 10:01
  And I'll put blueberries and cashews,
• 10:04
  maybe some chocolate chips or just plain.
• 10:06
  Um, and it's absolutely delicious.
• 10:08
  And if you get the white
• 10:11
  chocolate jello mix,
• 10:14
  sugar-free jello mix with the chocolate.
• 10:16
  So good.
• 10:18
  My favorite tip if you want, you know,
• 10:21
  cause I like ice cream and
• 10:22
  this is sort of an,
• 10:23
  it's an alternative to ice
• 10:24
  cream night protein pudding.
• 10:27
  Yeah, we, we bought a Ninja creamy.
• 10:30
  Oh, you did.
• 10:31
  yeah is it amazing it it
• 10:35
  took me a minute to like
• 10:36
  refine the recipe but now
• 10:39
  that we have it it's really
• 10:40
  good um you just have to
• 10:43
  kind of because once you
• 10:45
  make it it has to freeze
• 10:46
  for before you can put it
• 10:47
  in the machine oh so yeah I
• 10:50
  don't have patience for
• 10:51
  that ahead of like what
• 10:52
  flavors you want and what
• 10:53
  you want to do but I got to
• 10:55
  where like my base is
• 10:56
  really good and I can just
• 10:57
  add stuff to it cool um
• 11:01
  But it's, yeah.
• 11:03
  And it comes out like not totally hard,
• 11:07
  like a hard ice cream.
• 11:10
  So it's like a little bit of
• 11:11
  a mix between soft serve and hard.
• 11:12
  Like a gelato.
• 11:15
  Sure.
• 11:16
  Sure.
• 11:17
  It's really creamy.
• 11:20
  And when I do the mix at the end,
• 11:21
  I do add a little milk.
• 11:22
  So it's probably me doing it that way.
• 11:24
  But I actually prefer it better that way.
• 11:27
  Okay.
• 11:28
  Yeah, I would love to try it.
• 11:29
  I think Braden had one at
• 11:30
  the house at one point in
• 11:31
  time and then he broke it.
• 11:32
  So never got to use it.
• 11:35
  Yeah.
• 11:35
  I, I,
• 11:37
  I want to try like a peanut butter swirl,
• 11:39
  but you should not put
• 11:41
  peanut butter in the creamy.
• 11:42
  It can damage the machine.
• 11:44
  That's a bummer.
• 11:45
  That's probably what he did.
• 11:46
  So you,
• 11:48
  they tell you to put like PB two in
• 11:49
  it or something like that
• 11:51
  to get the flavor,
• 11:52
  like gumming up the machine.
• 11:54
  Okay.
• 11:58
  But I did want to PSA real quick.
• 12:03
  If you weren't watching Savan this morning,
• 12:05
  they have been pretty much
• 12:06
  talking about the LA
• 12:07
  wildfires all day today.
• 12:10
  And there is a GoFundMe
• 12:12
  campaign out there for the
• 12:13
  CrossFit gyms in LA that
• 12:15
  are suffering damage.
• 12:17
  One of them just celebrated
• 12:18
  their twenty year
• 12:19
  anniversary and everything.
• 12:22
  So it's CrossFit LA and Oak Park.
• 12:26
  um it's a gofundme campaign
• 12:27
  and I did put the link in
• 12:29
  the description below if
• 12:31
  you want to go do that like
• 12:33
  a dollar five dollars
• 12:34
  whatever you can um can
• 12:37
  manage to donate I'm sure
• 12:39
  they would appreciate
• 12:40
  anything you could give to
• 12:42
  that because if you have
• 12:43
  not seen the footage from
• 12:44
  la it is it is gosh scary as hell
• 12:50
  It really is.
• 12:51
  And I just don't, yeah.
• 12:54
  What is going on?
• 12:55
  This new year has just been wackadoodle.
• 12:58
  my understanding is the
• 12:59
  winds are really strong out
• 13:01
  there right now and so one
• 13:03
  little spark gets like
• 13:04
  shoved to another location
• 13:07
  and boom then we have
• 13:08
  another start but what what
• 13:09
  really like took my breath
• 13:11
  away was the hollywood
• 13:13
  hills are hit right now and
• 13:15
  they they showed on I think
• 13:17
  cnn or one of those should
• 13:19
  I can't remember which one
• 13:20
  but it was an overlay of a
• 13:22
  map so the fire's
• 13:24
  Berlin up here on the Hill
• 13:26
  and right at the base of
• 13:27
  the Hills Hollywood Avenue
• 13:28
  like it is that close to
• 13:32
  like downtown Hollywood um
• 13:36
  I I just I don't know how
• 13:38
  they're going to get under
• 13:38
  control because they don't
• 13:39
  have enough water in LA for
• 13:42
  this um yeah and it's it's just sad
• 13:50
  It's really sad.
• 13:51
  Yeah.
• 13:51
  Again,
• 13:52
  there's a link to the GoFundMe in
• 13:54
  the description below.
• 13:55
  Make sure you click on that
• 13:57
  and do that if you are so inclined.
• 14:03
  So on to brighter news.
• 14:05
  I talked about this
• 14:06
  yesterday because I am so excited.
• 14:09
  The Masters and Queens
• 14:10
  CrossFit Games are coming to Columbus.
• 14:13
  Yeah.
• 14:17
  I I said yesterday that I
• 14:19
  thought it would be at the
• 14:19
  columbus convention center
• 14:21
  based on the layout they
• 14:23
  had in birmingham
• 14:26
  convention center like uh
• 14:28
  and andrew stenn kind of
• 14:29
  confirmed that in the chat
• 14:31
  yesterday um and he's close
• 14:34
  with those legends folks so
• 14:36
  um I will take him at his word uh but
• 14:41
  What I love about it is,
• 14:42
  and not just for me because I live here,
• 14:44
  but because I think it's a
• 14:46
  great town to come visit.
• 14:48
  And we actually do have,
• 14:50
  in that area where the
• 14:51
  convention center is,
• 14:52
  a ton of restaurants.
• 14:54
  Oh, yeah.
• 14:55
  That's where the Arnold was, right?
• 14:58
  Yes.
• 15:00
  And an international airport
• 15:02
  where you're not struggling
• 15:04
  like Madison to find a
• 15:07
  flight that's affordable to
• 15:09
  get in and out of.
• 15:10
  And we have tons of
• 15:11
  different airlines you can pick from.
• 15:15
  Yeah.
• 15:15
  So I've always thought that
• 15:18
  Columbus would be a great
• 15:19
  place for the games games.
• 15:22
  But if we have to start with
• 15:23
  masters and teens, let's do that.
• 15:26
  and they're going to be
• 15:27
  going on at the same time, right?
• 15:29
  Like same weekend.
• 15:31
  Cause then you don't,
• 15:33
  I passed over a little bit yesterday,
• 15:35
  but we've been,
• 15:36
  we've been begging for that, right?
• 15:39
  Why not have the fans of
• 15:40
  both the teens and the
• 15:42
  masters all wanting to
• 15:44
  watch the same event at the same time?
• 15:46
  Yeah.
• 15:46
  And I mean,
• 15:47
  you don't dilute your judging
• 15:49
  population and all that either.
• 15:51
  You know, you get everybody in one place.
• 15:53
  It's going to be a,
• 15:55
  I think a huge benefit to
• 15:56
  everybody that's really
• 15:57
  cool yeah so and I don't
• 16:01
  know if like they had three
• 16:03
  floors in in birmingham for
• 16:04
  the masters games and
• 16:07
  everybody kind of rotated
• 16:08
  around uh during the day so
• 16:12
  what I liked about that was
• 16:13
  and I didn't think I would
• 16:15
  but if you're tired of seeing
• 16:18
  the standard being done over
• 16:20
  here and you want to see the deadlift run,
• 16:22
  you can kind of change up
• 16:23
  your workout day by going
• 16:25
  from Florida or if you're
• 16:27
  there and not having to
• 16:30
  watch everything at once.
• 16:37
  Let me just clear this up, Judy.
• 16:38
  That's my work computer.
• 16:40
  My laptop is literally
• 16:41
  sitting right in front of
• 16:43
  my three monitors for my work computer.
• 16:45
  So you're hearing a meeting requests and,
• 16:50
  teams messages and all that
• 16:51
  kind of stuff in the background.
• 16:52
  I don't have a doorbell.
• 16:55
  So you are not a Columbus native.
• 16:58
  No.
• 16:58
  You've been here for the Arnold.
• 17:00
  You've been here for rogue.
• 17:01
  Yes.
• 17:03
  Thoughts as an outsider.
• 17:04
  I mean, the,
• 17:06
  the setup for Arnold was great.
• 17:07
  I mean,
• 17:07
  Braden and I stayed sort of closer
• 17:10
  to the university.
• 17:11
  So we weren't in, we didn't stay in town,
• 17:13
  but it was an easy drive.
• 17:16
  There's plenty of like, even,
• 17:19
  in the surrounding areas,
• 17:20
  if you don't want to be in downtown,
• 17:21
  there's, you know,
• 17:23
  resources and Walmarts and, you know,
• 17:25
  grocery stores and whatever
• 17:26
  else you would need when you're here.
• 17:29
  But the downtown was so cool.
• 17:31
  Yeah.
• 17:31
  Super quaint,
• 17:32
  lots of cute little restaurants.
• 17:34
  I mean, you know,
• 17:35
  we had to sit at the bar one night to,
• 17:38
  you know,
• 17:38
  just to eat because we didn't
• 17:39
  make reservations or
• 17:40
  anything like that because
• 17:41
  we weren't really sure what was going on,
• 17:42
  but yeah, it was, it was great.
• 17:43
  Cute little town.
• 17:44
  I loved it.
• 17:46
  Yeah.
• 17:46
  You're right.
• 17:47
  Like South of the, of the short North,
• 17:49
  which is a kind of a bougie
• 17:52
  little area where there's a
• 17:54
  ton of like quaint little restaurants,
• 17:56
  mom and pops.
• 17:57
  Um,
• 17:58
  there's lots of bars and clubs if
• 18:00
  you're into that thing.
• 18:01
  And then a couple blocks West is, uh,
• 18:05
  the North market.
• 18:07
  So it's like a big open
• 18:08
  market with a lot of places
• 18:10
  to eat or like,
• 18:14
  and it's nice like like
• 18:15
  knoxville like downtown
• 18:16
  knoxville yeah yeah but
• 18:22
  different like this is like
• 18:24
  what I would picture I've
• 18:25
  never been there but like
• 18:26
  seattle's uh pike market is
• 18:29
  that what it's called or
• 18:30
  okay where it's just like
• 18:33
  there's a like a polish
• 18:34
  stand and then a jewish
• 18:35
  deli and then there's um an
• 18:38
  ice cream shop there's hot
• 18:41
  chicken takeover there's
• 18:43
  It's just,
• 18:44
  you go around in like a... So
• 18:53
  dry in my house right now.
• 18:57
  You go around in a square
• 18:58
  and it's just a restaurant
• 18:59
  after restaurant after restaurant.
• 19:01
  Or like a cheese shop or a
• 19:05
  sweet shop or...
• 19:09
  And it's an old warehouse
• 19:10
  that they turned into this
• 19:13
  quaint little place.
• 19:14
  As long as they have ice cream.
• 19:16
  Yeah.
• 19:18
  Lots of ice cream in Columbus.
• 19:19
  Good.
• 19:19
  I'll be good.
• 19:24
  So super excited about that.
• 19:25
  And hopefully we can do
• 19:29
  another documentary this year.
• 19:30
  And maybe I'll have more
• 19:32
  people on cameras to get even more angles,
• 19:37
  more perspectives, more topics.
• 19:39
  Yeah, that'll be great.
• 19:40
  You'll have to get more media passes too.
• 19:42
  Yeah.
• 19:43
  Bigger team.
• 19:45
  That'd be great.
• 19:47
  Yeah, I'm excited about it.
• 19:49
  I'm excited for you guys.
• 19:50
  I'm excited for Charlie and Amy,
• 19:51
  like the three of you will
• 19:52
  be like right there.
• 19:54
  I think that'll be super cool.
• 19:55
  And maybe Corey and Charlie
• 19:59
  get to meet face to face.
• 20:01
  Yeah, maybe.
• 20:04
  Well, it's weird.
• 20:10
  You said Corey and I have
• 20:12
  this like of asking my
• 20:14
  daughter to come with her
• 20:15
  photography skills.
• 20:17
  Yeah.
• 20:17
  I heard that getting like
• 20:19
  candid shots during the
• 20:21
  event that we could add
• 20:22
  into the documentary.
• 20:25
  Yeah, that would be cool.
• 20:26
  But, uh,
• 20:28
  yeah what is she what is she
• 20:29
  typically is she doing more
• 20:30
  like fashion photography or
• 20:31
  what's her sort of
• 20:32
  specialty I have this
• 20:36
  little itch in my throat
• 20:39
  but um yeah fashion
• 20:40
  photography right now she's
• 20:42
  doing a lot of headshots
• 20:45
  modeling okay so like
• 20:49
  sports and action would be
• 20:51
  maybe something new for her
• 20:53
  to explore and investigate
• 20:55
  that would be cool
• 20:57
  she's done some in her past.
• 20:59
  Um,
• 21:02
  she got a media pass to cover the blue
• 21:04
  jackets hockey team here in town once.
• 21:08
  And she was around CrossFit a lot,
• 21:11
  but we'll see.
• 21:13
  We'll see.
• 21:14
  I've asked her to do other
• 21:15
  things in the past and she's declined.
• 21:19
  Um, I was going to ask you, um, the,
• 21:22
  the master's athlete that
• 21:24
  passed away from cancer, Will Powell, um,
• 21:27
  I don't know if, did you know him?
• 21:30
  Had you interviewed him?
• 21:31
  I've never interviewed him.
• 21:33
  Of course I knew, I knew of him.
• 21:34
  Of him, right.
• 21:38
  Was he at the games this past?
• 21:41
  He was not.
• 21:42
  So he, he competed in the open,
• 21:45
  but he was.
• 21:46
  Oh, that's right.
• 21:47
  No, this year and didn't make games.
• 21:51
  But he's,
• 21:52
  he's fought cancer a few times in
• 21:53
  his career.
• 21:54
  Yeah.
• 21:56
  And sounds like held off on treatment to,
• 21:58
  to compete.
• 22:00
  Yeah.
• 22:01
  Based, based on what I've read.
• 22:02
  So he was really like giving
• 22:04
  it the middle finger.
• 22:05
  when I first got addicted to CrossFit,
• 22:08
  like he was,
• 22:10
  he was the grand poobah of
• 22:12
  the master's division.
• 22:13
  Like everybody knew who he was.
• 22:15
  And I think when they first
• 22:16
  went to Madison and first
• 22:18
  did that swim thing,
• 22:19
  he actually almost drowned in Madison.
• 22:23
  Like one of the competitors
• 22:24
  had to stop and pull him to
• 22:28
  safety and they both got disqualified.
• 22:31
  Okay.
• 22:31
  I had heard about that story.
• 22:32
  I didn't realize that was him.
• 22:36
  Yeah,
• 22:36
  that's probably the lowest light of
• 22:38
  his career.
• 22:38
  Right.
• 22:40
  Because he won like five times.
• 22:42
  But yeah,
• 22:44
  he always did fine in the ocean
• 22:46
  swims in California because
• 22:47
  of the saltwater.
• 22:50
  And less buoyant,
• 22:52
  that freshwater in Madison
• 22:55
  did not do him well.
• 22:56
  Yeah, I bet not.
• 23:01
  But he passed away...
• 23:03
  earlier this week from cancer,
• 23:06
  and he'd been fighting it
• 23:08
  off and on for probably the
• 23:09
  last seven years, maybe.
• 23:13
  And actually went to the
• 23:14
  games after the initial
• 23:16
  diagnosis a couple times.
• 23:17
  Yeah, yeah.
• 23:21
  So, quite the fighter.
• 23:24
  And from all accounts,
• 23:25
  like one of the nicest men
• 23:27
  you'll ever meet.
• 23:29
  Just a really nice guy.
• 23:30
  Can you hear that in the background or no?
• 23:33
  No.
• 23:34
  Okay.
• 23:35
  The trash trucks are here
• 23:36
  and they're dumping and
• 23:38
  they're taking like eight,
• 23:40
  ten shakes of the dumpster
• 23:42
  into the back of the truck.
• 23:43
  Yeah.
• 23:43
  Yeah.
• 23:43
  I hate that.
• 23:50
  The last thing I have from
• 23:52
  CrossFit World is...
• 23:55
  And I know, like,
• 23:57
  Carolyn has some really
• 23:58
  strong opinions on this,
• 23:59
  so I'll let her go off on this on Sunday.
• 24:01
  But CrossFit added the
• 24:03
  NorCal Classic as an in-person semifinal.
• 24:10
  All I'm going to say about it is,
• 24:13
  you know...
• 24:14
  I've talked about the wfp
• 24:15
  and everybody being
• 24:16
  negative about it and that
• 24:18
  it the one thing it does is
• 24:20
  it gives us a linear season
• 24:21
  where if someone asks us
• 24:22
  what is it it's really easy
• 24:24
  to say tour event one year
• 24:26
  earn points tour event two
• 24:27
  year earn points the top
• 24:29
  thirty point getters go to
• 24:30
  the finals to find out
• 24:31
  who's the best in the world
• 24:32
  right super straightforward right
• 24:35
  crossfit in its infinite
• 24:37
  wisdom as they do every
• 24:38
  year after they've
• 24:40
  announced nine events have
• 24:43
  now a month later and added
• 24:45
  a tenth which now changes
• 24:48
  the equation of like how
• 24:50
  many people get in online
• 24:52
  how many people get in in person um and
• 24:58
  the less and less people
• 24:59
  that can get in online,
• 25:00
  like that changes that
• 25:01
  equation and whether people
• 25:03
  can think they can go for
• 25:04
  that or do they need to
• 25:06
  start signing up for these other events?
• 25:08
  And some of these other
• 25:09
  qualifiers are happening this month.
• 25:12
  Yeah.
• 25:12
  I'm sorry.
• 25:13
  I'm so confused by all the
• 25:15
  ins and outs is do we have
• 25:16
  a rule book yet?
• 25:17
  Exactly.
• 25:19
  That's all we can say.
• 25:21
  Yeah, we don't have a rule book.
• 25:22
  And the fact that someone
• 25:24
  could qualify to go to the
• 25:26
  CrossFit Games and not
• 25:28
  attend an in-person event
• 25:30
  prior to the CrossFit Games
• 25:33
  is freaking crazy to me.
• 25:37
  How?
• 25:39
  We're not in COVID.
• 25:40
  It's not the online semifinal like we did.
• 25:45
  I don't understand it.
• 25:47
  Well,
• 25:47
  it happened in the past with the open
• 25:49
  straight to the games in
• 25:51
  that nineteen whacked out season.
• 25:54
  Top twenty in the open got
• 25:55
  an automatic bid.
• 25:58
  Oh, in twenty twenty nineteen, you mean?
• 26:01
  Yeah.
• 26:01
  With the with the national
• 26:03
  champions and all that.
• 26:05
  Yep.
• 26:07
  Crazy.
• 26:07
  I don't get it.
• 26:08
  Yeah.
• 26:09
  I mean,
• 26:10
  let's look at the semifinals when
• 26:12
  you get like a handful of
• 26:14
  athletes to the semifinals
• 26:16
  that have no business being here.
• 26:18
  Yeah.
• 26:18
  Cause everything was online up to that.
• 26:20
  There's no way to like
• 26:21
  double check everything.
• 26:22
  And you get five to ten
• 26:24
  athletes at the bottom of
• 26:25
  the pile that can't even do
• 26:27
  some of the movements.
• 26:28
  Right.
• 26:30
  Now you're sending them
• 26:31
  directly to the CrossFit games.
• 26:33
  And they're going to take
• 26:34
  the place of someone who
• 26:35
  might have gotten third or
• 26:37
  fourth in one of these
• 26:39
  in-person semifinals who
• 26:40
  clearly deserves to go to the games.
• 26:43
  Yeah.
• 26:43
  I don't, I mean,
• 26:45
  Again, I'm trying to stay positive.
• 26:47
  I know things change and I
• 26:49
  don't want to shit all over it,
• 26:50
  but it's frustrating.
• 26:55
  And yesterday on Coffee Pods and Wads,
• 26:57
  Peter responded to my reel
• 26:59
  that was out there about
• 27:01
  everybody being negative about the WFP.
• 27:04
  I just want to quickly say.
• 27:06
  And they said, well,
• 27:08
  we're negative about everything.
• 27:09
  We're critical of everything.
• 27:12
  We do.
• 27:13
  There's a difference in
• 27:13
  being critical and there's
• 27:14
  a difference in being negative.
• 27:17
  Critical is taking facts
• 27:19
  that are established and
• 27:20
  saying that this is not the
• 27:22
  way it's going to work.
• 27:24
  Negative is saying things like, well,
• 27:27
  if the WFP holds an event
• 27:29
  and CrossFit holds an event
• 27:31
  and the WFP has their
• 27:33
  top-twenty athletes plus
• 27:34
  the challengers and CrossFit has no names,
• 27:37
  CrossFit will still outdraw the WFP.
• 27:41
  Yeah, you don't know that.
• 27:42
  You don't know that.
• 27:43
  It hasn't happened yet.
• 27:44
  Right.
• 27:45
  It's you just being negative
• 27:46
  about that sport in that moment.
• 27:49
  It's not factual.
• 27:51
  And it's okay to have that opinion,
• 27:53
  but it's a negative opinion
• 27:55
  about the WFP.
• 27:57
  Yeah, and we're very critical of CrossFit,
• 27:58
  but we've had twelve,
• 28:00
  thirteen years of the
• 28:01
  CrossFit Games to warrant
• 28:05
  the criticalness of our commentary,
• 28:07
  right?
• 28:08
  In fact, we haven't had anything.
• 28:09
  We haven't had anything.
• 28:11
  Right.
• 28:11
  We don't have any experience.
• 28:12
  It's based on experience.
• 28:13
  Right.
• 28:13
  And we don't have experience
• 28:15
  with this one.
• 28:15
  So, yeah,
• 28:16
  I totally understand the nuance there.
• 28:19
  And the example they used
• 28:20
  last night was the syndicate crown.
• 28:23
  The syndicate crown hadn't
• 28:25
  drawn that well the couple
• 28:27
  of years before that.
• 28:28
  What makes you think that
• 28:30
  now that they're competing with the WFP,
• 28:32
  all of a sudden their
• 28:33
  numbers are going to go up?
• 28:35
  Yeah.
• 28:36
  Yeah.
• 28:38
  Now,
• 28:39
  maybe they're talking streaming numbers.
• 28:40
  I don't know.
• 28:41
  But it just, that's all I'm saying.
• 28:45
  And they're entitled to their opinion.
• 28:46
  They can, if they want to think negative,
• 28:48
  they can think negative.
• 28:49
  I just,
• 28:50
  I'm the naive guy that wants to
• 28:52
  think positive and hope
• 28:53
  that it has a shot.
• 28:54
  Well, and you're keeping an open mind,
• 28:56
  right?
• 28:56
  I mean, believe me,
• 28:58
  if something happens with
• 28:59
  the WFP that we don't agree
• 29:01
  with or that we think sucks,
• 29:02
  we're going to talk about it.
• 29:04
  Right.
• 29:04
  But hopefully we have facts to back it.
• 29:06
  Well, that's what I mean.
• 29:07
  Like when, if,
• 29:08
  and when something were to happen,
• 29:09
  we will, we, it's not like we're going to,
• 29:12
  we're not trying to elevate it to some,
• 29:13
  you know, not putting it on a pedestal.
• 29:17
  And I will admit that the,
• 29:19
  that spin knows more about
• 29:21
  what's going on behind the
• 29:22
  scenes than I ever,
• 29:23
  like that guy digs and he
• 29:26
  has so many contacts.
• 29:28
  He may know more about
• 29:29
  what's going on than we do
• 29:30
  and just can't say it.
• 29:32
  And maybe that's what's
• 29:33
  causing it to happen.
• 29:35
  Um,
• 29:37
  entitled to say whatever he wants to say.
• 29:39
  Um, but I have,
• 29:42
  I have the platform to rebut that.
• 29:44
  So there it is.
• 29:49
  Yes.
• 29:49
  We are the masters of our own words.
• 29:51
  We can say whatever we want.
• 29:54
  Well,
• 29:54
  I know we were pulling right up
• 29:55
  against your twelve thirty deadline.
• 29:56
  Yeah.
• 29:59
  So short show today.
• 30:00
  Uh,
• 30:01
  but we'll be back tomorrow with lunch
• 30:02
  with the Clydesdale.
• 30:04
  Um,
• 30:05
  Go Penn State tonight against Notre Dame.
• 30:07
  Hopefully we're in the
• 30:08
  national championship when
• 30:09
  I speak to you tomorrow.
• 30:11
  Other than that,
• 30:12
  thank you for joining us
• 30:13
  and we'll see you next time.
• 30:15
  Peace out.
• 30:15
  See ya.
