- 2:13Because last week,
- 2:14if you guys didn't notice, every week,
- 2:18every day of the week last week,
- 2:20there was a different art
- 2:22style of a portrait of
- 2:24myself in the picture of the thumbnail.
- 2:29And except for Wednesday,
- 2:32Wednesday was Corey and I
- 2:34doing stepbrother's.
- 2:39But Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday,
- 2:41four paintings were done
- 2:44from different famous artists.

- 2:50artists were in the comments,

- 3:12and I will send you a prize pack.
- 3:20And just to kind of give you
- 3:24a quick remembrance of what
- 3:26those look like.
- 3:28I'll try to pull that up real quick.
- 3:50So here is last year's one from last week.
- 3:55There's one from last week.
- 3:57There's one from last week.
- 4:03So yeah,
- 4:05there were four artists last week.
- 4:08Name the four
- 4:10There's one.
- 4:14And, uh, yeah, there you go.
- 4:21Can win a price back some fun,
- 4:28something new.
- 4:30Um,
- 4:33Last chance qualifier has come to an end.
- 4:36We are waiting for the
- 4:38official results by this Friday.
- 4:41But unofficially,
- 4:43it appears that Yonikoski
- 4:46and Lydia Fish are the two
- 4:48people going to the
- 4:49CrossFit Games pending
- 4:52further video review.
- 4:56I think it's an
- 4:57interesting... First of all,
- 5:00I think the way... And I
- 5:01said this last night on our show.
- 5:03I think this season has been
- 5:06the worst structured season of all time.
- 5:09And I think that the last
- 5:10chance qualifier was a joke.
- 5:12When you have over a hundred
- 5:14people that qualified on
- 5:16both the men's and women's
- 5:17side to do the last chance
- 5:19qualifier to get your shot at the games,
- 5:22and you had...
- 5:23Nineteen women sign up,
- 5:26fifteen submitted scores,
- 5:29and I think you had like
- 5:30fifteen men and nine submitted scores.
- 5:35Out of a hundred from each side.
- 5:37That is a complete joke.
- 5:41Complete joke.
- 5:45But anyway.
- 5:45Anyway.
- 5:48Lito said everyone was just exhausted.
- 5:51I don't doubt that at all,
- 5:53but I think it's the way
- 5:54the season was structured
- 5:56that created this to happen.
- 6:00I think, and I don't know.
- 6:05Okay,
- 6:06let's talk through this for a second.
- 6:08You have the WFP come on the
- 6:10scene and it's,
- 6:11we want to have more
- 6:12opportunities to compete, right?
- 6:15Then for the first time
- 6:18since twenty nineteen in
- 6:20the CrossFit game season,
- 6:22you can take multiple
- 6:24attempts to qualify for the
- 6:25CrossFit Games.
- 6:28Other than twenty nineteen,
- 6:29you only had one shot,
- 6:31you had regionals or you had semifinals,
- 6:34and that was your one shot.
- 6:36Now you have multiple attempts to do this.
- 6:41Many people took four,
- 6:43five shots to do this.
- 6:48And so I do think because
- 6:50people felt their odds
- 6:52would be better in the
- 6:54in-person qualifying events
- 6:57and the online semifinal,
- 7:01they tried there and then
- 7:05were completely exhausted
- 7:07by the time they hit the
- 7:08last chance qualifier.
- 7:15Okay.
- 7:20so I I also said last night
- 7:25that because of the way it
- 7:26was planned out with the in
- 7:30affiliate semi-final in the
- 7:32middle of the season it
- 7:33really messed up the
- 7:34in-person qualifying events
- 7:36it weakened the fields
- 7:37everywhere it gave the
- 7:40third party people running
- 7:42those events literally no
- 7:44chance to make any money back um
- 7:48And they they just did a
- 7:49really poor job and by the
- 7:52way they structured the
- 7:53team season that really
- 7:55screwed up the in person
- 7:57qualifying events,
- 7:58because the teams are what
- 8:01draw people to those
- 8:03regional slash in person
- 8:06qualifying events.
- 8:09and
- 8:11We took that away from the
- 8:12event organizers as well.
- 8:14So affiliates didn't come in
- 8:17droves to cheer on their teams.
- 8:20It was just you had to be
- 8:22the fan of an athlete to do that,
- 8:25which actually caused a reduction,
- 8:27in my opinion,
- 8:28of the attendance at those events.
- 8:39lido is a thirty five to
- 8:41thirty nine year old
- 8:41athlete and her first time
- 8:43qualifying for the crossfit
- 8:44games which are being held
- 8:49here in columbus cannot
- 8:51wait for that so the season
- 8:55was all messed up but
- 8:58regardless of that we had a
- 8:58last chance qualifier
- 9:02I was really afraid that a
- 9:03lot of the people would not
- 9:04submit their last scores if
- 9:06they did not feel like they had a chance.
- 9:08That did not happen as I expected.
- 9:11It only happened a couple
- 9:12times on the men's side.
- 9:16Really, all the women put in their scores.
- 9:19But what we ended up with at
- 9:21the end of the day was
- 9:22Lydia Fish on the women's side,
- 9:24Yona Koski on the men's side.
- 9:26Yona was pretty much a no-doubter.
- 9:28he finished in the tops in
- 9:31most of the events,
- 9:32which isn't surprising
- 9:33because Yona is very good
- 9:34at online events.
- 9:36Plus these really worked out
- 9:38for him on the women's side.
- 9:42Um, Carolyn and I were actually debating,
- 9:43I don't think it was on the show.
- 9:45I think it was after the
- 9:45show last night between
- 9:48Kyra and Lydia fish.
- 9:50Um, and Lydia fish won it.
- 9:55Um,
- 9:56and really happy for her.
- 9:58Um,
- 9:58she had like the moment of the year
- 10:00last year when I was at
- 10:02syndicate crown and she
- 10:04finished the snatch ladder, um,
- 10:07which nobody probably thought she could,
- 10:10um, including her own parents and fans.
- 10:13Um,
- 10:14but I caught a really cool video from
- 10:16behind of her finishing
- 10:18that with all of her crew
- 10:20in front of her leaping to their feet,
- 10:23leaping to their feet as
- 10:24she finished that event.
- 10:27so super happy for lydia um
- 10:30and then we wait this week
- 10:32just to make sure all the
- 10:33video reviews go through
- 10:35again with this small of a
- 10:37number they should be able
- 10:38to review just about all of
- 10:41them without too much
- 10:44effort so there is that um
- 10:57And that review, I believe,
- 10:58is being done by CrossFit.
- 11:00There is some conflicting
- 11:01information with that,
- 11:03but who the heck knows?
- 11:10Also,
- 11:10if you didn't tune in to the last
- 11:11night's show,
- 11:13we got clipped by Dents Updates.
- 11:16So I'm going to show that real quick.
- 11:25Sure I am.
- 11:38If you guys did not see last
- 11:40night show or this,
- 11:42here is the clip that they did of that.
- 11:46Facundo,
- 11:47director of International for
- 11:48Mayhem and coach to many
- 11:50big-name athletes,
- 11:51dropped in on Savon's live
- 11:53show the other morning.
- 11:54Do you know that I compete
- 11:56with your Jenny?
- 11:57Yes, yes, yes.
- 11:58I sometimes get jealous.
- 12:00And there are rumors
- 12:03floating that Facundo could be the CEO.
- 12:06Oh, really?
- 12:11one of my favorite people in the space.
- 12:13So last night we talked
- 12:14about the sale of CrossFit
- 12:18and some things that I am hearing.
- 12:20One of the possibilities for
- 12:22CEO was Facundo.
- 12:24He's not the only name that I've heard,
- 12:26but I have heard his name
- 12:27floated out there.
- 12:28I am in no way
- 12:30No way an insider in this sale,
- 12:34but that is a name that I
- 12:36heard as someone that could
- 12:38be the CEO of CrossFit once
- 12:40the sale goes through.
- 12:43But she put that out.
- 12:46I shared it.
- 12:47But please know, I am not an insider.
- 12:50That is just something that
- 12:51I've heard floated.
- 12:54But I've heard it a couple times.
- 12:57So there is that.
- 13:01The other thing I wanted to
- 13:03dive into briefly is we had
- 13:05the community cup going on
- 13:06this weekend and there's
- 13:07been very little attention given to that.
- 13:10We talked about it briefly
- 13:11last night on our show.
- 13:13Jamie's gym actually used it
- 13:15as an in gym competition and,
- 13:19And they did the three
- 13:19workouts as the competition for the gym.
- 13:23They do those every year,
- 13:25which I thought was a very creative idea.
- 13:29Carolyn's gym used each
- 13:33workout as one different
- 13:35day of their programming.
- 13:38So I think from like
- 13:39Thursday was one workout,
- 13:40Friday was another, Saturday was another.
- 13:44so that everybody could do it.
- 13:45But not everybody signed up
- 13:47for it in both cases.
- 13:49Some people did some people didn't.
- 13:53I also just finished
- 13:53watching Amanda Hari's
- 13:56video where she finished
- 13:57the last two workouts.
- 13:58She has another video where
- 14:00she did the first workout
- 14:02and talked about doing it.
- 14:04But at the end of it, she's like,
- 14:08After reviewing her video,
- 14:09she felt like her reps
- 14:10weren't necessarily the best reps.
- 14:13But after thinking about it,
- 14:14like it wasn't for anything.
- 14:17It was just to like come
- 14:19together as a community.
- 14:21And so she ended up not
- 14:22redoing the workout because
- 14:25she felt like it wasn't
- 14:26really for anything.
- 14:28And you can go check that
- 14:29out on her YouTube channel.
- 14:32It's a pretty short video
- 14:33because the one is just the
- 14:35lift and the other one is
- 14:37just the intervals.
- 14:43And so...
- 14:45My question to this whole thing is,
- 14:47I think it's a cool concept.
- 14:49I think the timing sucks.
- 14:52You put it right in the same
- 14:53weekend as the last chance qualifier.
- 14:55You're in the summertime
- 14:56when everybody is off and
- 14:59vacationing with family and you're
- 15:02I mean,
- 15:03I've been an affiliate since two
- 15:05thousand eleven every summer.
- 15:07Our numbers go down because
- 15:09people are on vacation.
- 15:11People are on the road.
- 15:13People are in and out.
- 15:14Kids are out of school.
- 15:15So schedules are all wacky.
- 15:17There's sports all summer.
- 15:19And so you have less
- 15:21participation as an affiliate overall.
- 15:24And then to put this
- 15:25community cup smack dab in
- 15:26the middle of that.
- 15:28plus these other things that
- 15:29are completely different
- 15:31going on the same weekend.
- 15:33That's,
- 15:34that's a hard thing to put on the
- 15:36affiliate,
- 15:37a community cup and a last
- 15:39chance qualifier that we
- 15:40didn't have much
- 15:40participation in the last
- 15:42chance qualifier,
- 15:44but they're both on the same weekend.
- 15:50I think that actually
- 15:51getting rid of the
- 15:52quarterfinals was a mistake and
- 15:56Now, maybe instead of quarterfinals,
- 15:58you do the Community Cup a
- 16:00couple weeks after the Open,
- 16:03and then people can
- 16:04continue on and have this
- 16:06competition in their levels
- 16:08before we get to summer,
- 16:10before we get to the heart
- 16:11of the competitive season,
- 16:13and maybe all that is done
- 16:15in that little February
- 16:17through March-April time.
- 16:22Yeah.
- 16:24Andrew Sten says maybe
- 16:25schedule it around the time of the games.
- 16:29Use it to get games more attention.
- 16:35That's a possibility.
- 16:38Or use the same workouts as
- 16:39the last chance qualifier.
- 16:41Or what I think,
- 16:43use the same workouts as
- 16:44the in-affiliate semifinal
- 16:47event and let everybody participate.
- 16:53and have the in affiliate at
- 16:54the end of the season.
- 16:57And then you have your upper
- 16:59one percent or whatever,
- 17:01three percent that are
- 17:02competing for a shot at the
- 17:04CrossFit Games.
- 17:05And then you have all the
- 17:06scaled versions of that
- 17:07down below for everybody to
- 17:10participate in.
- 17:12And then maybe you get more
- 17:14attention to the games that way.
- 17:20I don't think many people
- 17:21are interested in doing yet
- 17:22another online comp,
- 17:24whether that's the LCQ or
- 17:26the Community Cup,
- 17:27and affiliates aren't
- 17:28interested in running it.
- 17:30Yeah,
- 17:30that's why I think you should combine it.
- 17:33Combine it into one event
- 17:35and not add on another one.
- 17:43I wonder if hosting the
- 17:44Community Cup soon after
- 17:45the open could be
- 17:46burdensome on affiliates
- 17:48I'm sure it would be I'm
- 17:49sure it would be.
- 17:55Jay birch who works out in
- 17:58camp pendleton out behind
- 17:59his house don't make it
- 18:01where you have to do it in an affiliate.
- 18:06yeah.
- 18:10Then we have Jonathan coming in.
- 18:11What about the service
- 18:12member cup at the may at mayhem?
- 18:16I don't think it's called service member,
- 18:17but service members are involved.
- 18:20It is the occupational service.
- 18:24games because you do have first responders,
- 18:27police, fire, teachers,
- 18:30healthcare workers,
- 18:32and then you have the
- 18:32service service members as well.
- 18:37That is happening in the fall,
- 18:39completely after the season,
- 18:41completely away from everything else.
- 18:49Which I like that idea.
- 18:59My affiliate owner had zero interest.
- 19:00A couple people did the workout,
- 19:02so that's it.
- 19:05Yeah,
- 19:05it almost needs to be a thing where
- 19:08it can be used as a
- 19:08marketing thing if you want
- 19:10the buy-in of the affiliates.
- 19:22And Lito, this is what I think.
- 19:24The LCQ needs to be merged
- 19:26with the online semis.
- 19:27Three spots only done after
- 19:29all the in-person semis.
- 19:31Yeah, I don't know about the number.
- 19:32Like, I'm okay with five.
- 19:34I'm okay with seven, whatever it is.
- 19:37However many spots are left
- 19:38of the thirty after in-person,
- 19:41put them all into that last
- 19:43chance qualifier, merged online semi,
- 19:46and do the whole thing at once.
- 19:57Corey says, stop making sense, Lito.
- 20:00I know.
- 20:03But we're probably going to
- 20:05have new owners very, very soon.
- 20:07And they may change all this stuff.
- 20:21Um...
- 20:24That's really all I had on
- 20:25the CrossFit front today.
- 20:28If you did not see last night's show,
- 20:31I implore you to go watch it.
- 20:33There's a really cool
- 20:34dynamic with Carolyn
- 20:35Prevost talking about her
- 20:40experience from NorCal,
- 20:43almost making the games,
- 20:45and coming down to that
- 20:46last split second of the clean.
- 20:49She talks about that into...
- 20:52how her week went with just missing out,
- 20:56then Alex having the car accident,
- 20:59how that affected her,
- 21:02how she got a call from
- 21:03CrossFit telling her to
- 21:05stay ready in case Alex couldn't go,
- 21:11And then talking with Alex
- 21:12and they had actually
- 21:13planned on working together
- 21:16through the last chance
- 21:17qualifier where Alex was
- 21:19going to test workouts for
- 21:20Carolyn to help her make it
- 21:23through the last chance
- 21:23qualifier before the accident happened.
- 21:28So all this happens this week.
- 21:30And then she had to try to
- 21:31do the last chance qualifier,
- 21:34very much mentally fatigued
- 21:36from everything that
- 21:37happened during the week.
- 21:39It's a really good listen as
- 21:41she talks through that whole thing.
- 21:43If you did not hear it last night,
- 21:45I think it's some of the
- 21:47best stuff we've done on this channel.
- 21:53And she also said this, Corey,
- 21:55if you stay ready,
- 21:56you never have to get ready.
- 21:58She just works out all the
- 21:59time because she works a full-time job.
- 22:03She doesn't really get the
- 22:04opportunities much to ramp
- 22:06up for different competitions.
- 22:08So she has to stay at kind
- 22:09of an even keel readiness
- 22:12all season long.
- 22:14She has a little bit of
- 22:15extra time in the summer
- 22:16when she's not teaching,
- 22:19and so she does ramp up if
- 22:20she has games training.
- 22:22But most of the time,
- 22:24it's the same thing
- 22:25year-round because of her
- 22:27being a full-time school teacher.
- 22:35David Johnson,
- 22:35we did the Community Cup workouts.
- 22:37We just programmed one each
- 22:39day early last week.
- 22:41Yeah, that's what Carolyn's gym did too.
- 22:45Alito, great show last night, Scott.
- 22:47I caught up this morning.
- 22:49Corey, last night's show was great.
- 22:51Agreed.
- 22:52Yeah,
- 22:53I'm not saying we were great the
- 22:54whole way through,
- 22:55but that Carolyn part was really,
- 22:56really cool.
- 23:00And she was also asked if
- 23:01she would hit that last bar at NorCal.
- 23:05And her response was,
- 23:07I never miss two twenty five.
- 23:11Her only attempt at that two
- 23:12twenty five bar was with
- 23:14three seconds left to go.
- 23:17And by the time she lifted it,
- 23:18there was no way she could
- 23:19complete the lift before
- 23:22the buzzer went off.
- 23:23And she just kind of like left it go.
- 23:31Did Carolyn do the in affiliate semi?
- 23:34She did.
- 23:36She finished around twentieth, I think,
- 23:38Jay Birch.
- 23:39So about seven spots out.
- 23:49Corey, I don't miss two twenty five.
- 23:51Carolyn,
- 23:52the absolute G. Love that from her.
- 23:57And by saying that,
- 23:58we're not taking anything
- 23:59away from Hattie because I
- 24:00think Hattie rushed that lift too.
- 24:03If she would have had more time,
- 24:05she would have had more time to set up.
- 24:07But it would have come down
- 24:09to this hugely climactic
- 24:12finish that we as
- 24:14spectators all got cheated out of.
- 24:18Cause one of them was going
- 24:19to make a lift.
- 24:21You add a minute to that time cap.
- 24:23One of the two of them were
- 24:23going to make a lift at
- 24:24some point and they were
- 24:26going to look down at each other.
- 24:28They were going to face off.
- 24:29And it was the first one to
- 24:30get that bar up was going to win.
- 24:34And one of them was going to make it.
- 24:37And we got cheated out of that.
- 24:39That's what sucks.
- 24:40But it was cool getting her
- 24:41perspective and,
- 24:43Um,
- 24:43about that and really going into the
- 24:45race before they lowered the weights, she,
- 24:49her plan was to go slower
- 24:51on the rope climbs and the box jumps.
- 24:53Cause she knew her max clean
- 24:56squat clean was more than Hattie and, um,
- 25:00Holta's and her plan was get to the bar.
- 25:05She knew she could hit it
- 25:07and then she would be able
- 25:09to beat them at that point.
- 25:11But she gave kudos to Hattie
- 25:13who stayed ahead of her the
- 25:15entire time through that race.
- 25:22But yeah.
- 25:23And speaking of which,
- 25:24we are going to have Hattie
- 25:25on the show tonight at six thirty p.m.
- 25:28Eastern time.
- 25:30So we'll get Hattie's
- 25:30perspective as well and how
- 25:33it came down for her and
- 25:35what her process was, what her plan was.
- 25:40We'll hear from her and get
- 25:41the other side of the coin.
- 25:44But yeah, six, six thirty p.m.
- 25:47Eastern time right here on
- 25:49Clydesdale Media YouTube channel.
- 25:51We'll have Hattie Canio
- 25:52talking about that experience as well.
- 25:59Of course,
- 26:00Hattie will be on while I'm training.
- 26:02She actually asked, like,
- 26:03when is Corey training when
- 26:05he's training?
- 26:05That's the time I want to
- 26:06pick to come on the show.
- 26:13She just wants to make sure
- 26:14you do the rewatch and not the live.
- 26:16That's all.
- 26:19Uh, two twenty five.
- 26:20That's around my deadlift PR.
- 26:27Yeah, these women are.
- 26:29They're just amazing athletes.
- 26:32Amazing athletes.
- 26:37So, um.
- 26:41if you listen to the show
- 26:42last week and we talked
- 26:44about Corey's experience
- 26:45with MFC qualifiers,
- 26:49I think we have a
- 26:49continuation of that story
- 26:51coming this Wednesday.
- 26:52So stay tuned for that as well.
- 26:55Cause I believe we're still
- 26:56in limbo status with that.
- 27:01And I,
- 27:02you'll get to hear his perspective
- 27:03on that as well.
- 27:06Yeah.
- 27:08This, this Saturday night,
- 27:10I went to see buddy guy
- 27:11play at a local concert
- 27:14venue here in Columbus.
- 27:17And, uh,
- 27:19about an hour West of Columbus
- 27:20towards Dayton.
- 27:22It's like the best venue in Ohio.
- 27:24It's coolest venue ever.
- 27:26Um, went to see him.
- 27:28Friend had extra tick, an extra ticket,
- 27:31offered it to me.
- 27:32I offered to drive in return.
- 27:35We got down there and, um,
- 27:38I love live music and I
- 27:39haven't been doing that as
- 27:41much lately as I used to.
- 27:44And, uh,
- 27:47I'm really glad I took the
- 27:48time out to do that for myself.
- 27:51Since COVID,
- 27:51I have not been to concerts much,
- 27:54and I'm really glad I took
- 27:55the time out to do this.
- 27:56The blues are not
- 27:57necessarily my favorite genre of music,
- 28:00but Buddy Guy is a living legend.
- 28:02He's a Rock and Roll Hall of Famer,
- 28:04seven-time Grammy Award winner, and...
- 28:07And he said it in his show,
- 28:08there's only three living
- 28:10blues men left on this earth.
- 28:13And he feels like it's a
- 28:14responsibility for him to
- 28:16go out and play for as long as he can.
- 28:19And at eighty eight years old,
- 28:20he was crushing it.
- 28:22His guitar playing was amazing.
- 28:24His singing and storytelling
- 28:26were fantastic.
- 28:28If you ever get the chance to see him,
- 28:30even if you're not a blues fan,
- 28:32it's very entertaining.
- 28:34And we're not going to get
- 28:36many more opportunities to
- 28:38see musicians like him.
- 28:42But I really, really enjoyed it.
- 28:44And it gave me the itch.
- 28:45And I'm going to another concert in July.
- 28:51um live and collective soul
- 28:53and then I think my wife
- 28:55and I are going to go to
- 28:56another one in august just
- 28:58because it gave me the itch
- 29:00to start doing I need to
- 29:02treat myself to these
- 29:04things that I used to love
- 29:05doing and that covid got us
- 29:07out of the practice of
- 29:08going and doing and uh yeah
- 29:13and get back to like things
- 29:14I love like live music so
- 29:16that was that was a blast for me and uh
- 29:21Yeah, just wanted to share that.
- 29:25The other thing that's kind
- 29:26of new this weekend is I'm
- 29:27running out of shows to watch.
- 29:31So if anybody has any suggestions,
- 29:33throw them into the chat.
- 29:35I'd love to hear them.
- 29:36But my wife and I started
- 29:38watching FUBAR this weekend.
- 29:45And it's an Arnold Schwarzenegger series,
- 29:48but it is the...
- 29:51It is that awesome eighties
- 29:54action with Arnold stupid humor stuff.
- 29:59If you miss any of that in your old,
- 30:00like me, uh,
- 30:02it's been fun to watch so far.
- 30:05Um, and I'm, I'm really,
- 30:07really enjoying it, but it is,
- 30:10it's not going to win any
- 30:12Emmys or Academy awards or
- 30:14anything like that,
- 30:15but it is freaking funny
- 30:19and it it's nostalgic.
- 30:23Jay Birch says I should go
- 30:24back and watch Mad Men.
- 30:29I just finished Apartment Q.
- 30:30Only one season, sadly, but very good.
- 30:33Okay.
- 30:35I'll check that out.
- 30:39We did get rid of a few of
- 30:40our streaming services.
- 30:42We're going to kind of
- 30:42rotate them in and out.
- 30:46Arnold one-liners are a huge
- 30:47part of my childhood.
- 30:49Mine too.
- 30:51And they do find ways in
- 30:53this show for him to say
- 30:55choppa in different aspects.
- 31:00And it's not even where you expect it.
- 31:04And it's hilarious.
- 31:09Corey says,
- 31:10I saw Jared Lee Lewis and Elton
- 31:11John back in two thousand twelve.
- 31:13And I felt the same way then, Scott.
- 31:15Absolute legends.
- 31:16I've seen Elton John twice and he's great.
- 31:20I saw him with Billy Joel in the nineties.
- 31:23Rocket Man meets the Piano Man.
- 31:25And then I saw him solo
- 31:28early two thousands.
- 31:30And then.
- 31:33Jerry Lee Lewis, I actually saw.
- 31:36early nineties at three rivers,
- 31:39three river stadium in
- 31:40Pittsburgh before it was
- 31:42torn down and it started to rain.
- 31:45And he went in and played
- 31:46the organ they use for the
- 31:47baseball game to entertain
- 31:50during the rain delay.
- 31:52That is one of my greatest
- 31:54musical memories ever to
- 31:56hear Jerry Lee Lewis pounding,
- 31:58pounding on a baseball
- 32:00organ was fantastic.
- 32:07so jay birch I would have
- 32:12loved to see elton um I to
- 32:16be honest I went for billy
- 32:18joel billy joel is one of
- 32:20my favorite artists ever I
- 32:21actually own every one of
- 32:23his records on vinyl except
- 32:25one that I cannot find for
- 32:28an affordable price um and
- 32:30my wife is a huge elton
- 32:32john fan so we were
- 32:34actually dating at the time
- 32:36and she went for
- 32:38Elton John, I went for Billy Joel and we,
- 32:41we ended up both liking the
- 32:43other artists just as much.
- 32:45And, uh, it's good.
- 32:50trained to live not sure
- 32:51I've if you've seen
- 32:52severance on Apple came
- 32:54highly recommended started last night.
- 32:56My daughter has been trying
- 32:57to get us to watch that
- 32:58Apple TV is one that we've
- 32:59kind of canceled for now.
- 33:02And but we have to get it
- 33:04back because I'm a huge Ted
- 33:06lasso and huge shrinking fan.
- 33:09So when it comes back,
- 33:10maybe I'll jump in and
- 33:11watch severance while we have it.
- 33:14Brett Owsley,
- 33:14Four Seasons on Netflix was good.
- 33:16I've seen that already.
- 33:19My only issue with Four Seasons, Brett,
- 33:21is that by the end of the show,
- 33:24I didn't like any of the couples.
- 33:31That...
- 33:33the first four episodes, I was like,
- 33:34this is pretty good.
- 33:36And then by the end,
- 33:37you don't like any of them.
- 33:39And that,
- 33:39that kind of let me left me a
- 33:43little limp at the end of it.
- 33:47Um, and then after Jody says,
- 33:51afterlife Lito says, Oh my God,
- 33:53afterlife.
- 33:54Yes.
- 33:56And you've said that to me before.
- 33:58I've got to find it.
- 34:01Brett says, agreed.
- 34:03I thought it was good at
- 34:04first and then we were really into it.
- 34:06And then, man, I,
- 34:08I thought I was going to really like the,
- 34:12um, Tina Fey.
- 34:17And I can't think of who her
- 34:18husband was that couple.
- 34:20And they just didn't, didn't it.
- 34:24I'd start hating them too.
- 34:28Judy Reed, yes.
- 34:29Ted Lasso, can't wait.
- 34:30Oh,
- 34:31I cannot believe they're coming back
- 34:32for a fourth season.
- 34:34I really had reserved myself
- 34:36the thinking it was completely over.
- 34:39And then I found out that it
- 34:42is not completely over.
- 34:45And I am so stoked for that.
- 34:47I cannot wait.
- 34:48Ted Lasso is one of the
- 34:50greatest shows ever made.
- 34:52Ever made.
- 34:55Jay Birch,
- 34:56my greatest memory is having the
- 34:57flu at a KISS concert in
- 34:59Waco and it snowed fourteen inches.
- 35:02Oh my gosh.
- 35:05Yeah, I've thrown up at a KISS concert,
- 35:07but it was not from the flu.
- 35:09I will say that.
- 35:10I've seen KISS four times.
- 35:13I really went to a lot of
- 35:15concerts when I was younger.
- 35:17A lot.
- 35:22Brett says,
- 35:23the waterfront is coming in two
- 35:24days and looks good.
- 35:27Judy,
- 35:28I cried so hard when Ted Lasso ended.
- 35:31If I were being honest,
- 35:32I would admit I cried as well.
- 35:39I saw an interview where Ted
- 35:40Lasso was sharing him
- 35:43asking coaching questions
- 35:44to Jim Harbaugh.
- 35:45Great stuff.
- 35:46If you didn't know this,
- 35:47Ted Lasso actually started
- 35:48as a commercial.
- 35:50It started for a commercial
- 35:53that aired during NFL games
- 35:55to promote the World Cup
- 35:58coming to the United States.
- 36:00And from that commercial,
- 36:04Jason Sudeikis and Brett
- 36:07Goldstein took that and
- 36:09made a complete series out of it.
- 36:12So it really started as a commercial.
- 36:20Of course you did.
- 36:21You're a good dude.
- 36:21Yeah.
- 36:22I'm an emotional wreck.
- 36:24I didn't cry a lot as a kid.
- 36:27When I had a daughter,
- 36:30all of a sudden the
- 36:32waterworks started to open
- 36:33up in my eyes and I cry
- 36:34over the silliest stuff now.
- 36:38The silliest stuff.
- 36:44That would be an interesting
- 36:45top five for people to
- 36:46share best concerts.
- 36:48I imagine it would be an
- 36:49interesting mix with this group.
- 36:51I am sure it would be.
- 36:55I'm sure it would be an
- 36:56interesting mix for sure.
- 37:00It was an NBC promoting the
- 37:02premier league.
- 37:03Okay.
- 37:04So it was not the world cup.
- 37:05It was a premier league.
- 37:06Got it.
- 37:07Thanks.
- 37:07Thank you, Andrew.
- 37:08He is our resident football expert.
- 37:13Are you caught up on Wrexham, Andrew Sten?
- 37:15Because I am caught up and I
- 37:17am loving this season.
- 37:22Jay Birch's first concert
- 37:23was Duran Duran in Dallas
- 37:25in nineteen eighty three.
- 37:28My first concert that I went
- 37:30with my parents was the Beach Boys.
- 37:33Then we just lost Brian
- 37:34Wilson the other night.
- 37:36Um, that was sad.
- 37:38Well,
- 37:38my first concert was the beach boys
- 37:39with my parents.
- 37:40My first like rock concert
- 37:42was Pat Benatar in.
- 37:46Eighty four, eighty three, eighty four,
- 37:50probably eighty four.
- 37:55Um,
- 38:02Uh,
- 38:03Andrew is caught up pretty sure it's a
- 38:05short season for the show though,
- 38:07which sucks.
- 38:08Yeah.
- 38:08It keeps getting shorter and
- 38:09shorter and that really bums me out.
- 38:13Um,
- 38:14but I think the emotion this year
- 38:16because of the growth of
- 38:18the team and how some of
- 38:21the players haven't grown
- 38:23as fast and as they're getting promoted,
- 38:26they're just not able to
- 38:27keep up and that they have
- 38:29to let people go and
- 38:31and move people from
- 38:33different roles within the
- 38:34organization is really emotional.
- 38:38Like I said,
- 38:38I'm an emotional wreck these days.
- 38:41I cry over everything.
- 38:43And when you bring in a new
- 38:45CEO and the old CEO has to
- 38:47move to this role and this, it's just,
- 38:51if you have not watched
- 38:52Welcome to Wrexham,
- 38:55It's real life.
- 38:56It's a real-life documentary
- 38:57of a team that was bought
- 38:59by Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhinney,
- 39:02and it is so good.
- 39:04So good.
- 39:08Brett Owsley,
- 39:09Poison was my first rock concert.
- 39:12I've seen Poison.
- 39:14Not my favorite concert ever,
- 39:16but that's a pretty good first one.
- 39:19Craig Pasley, Eric Clapton, you dog.
- 39:23I would have loved to seen Eric Clapton.
- 39:26He actually lives here in Columbus.
- 39:28He married a girl,
- 39:29a girl from Columbus and
- 39:31has a house here in Columbus.
- 39:33Um, and I've been by it several times.

- 39:40him and his wife gave birth
- 39:42the same time we did.
- 39:45And we missed being in the
- 39:47same Lamaze class by one night.
- 39:55Yeah.
- 39:58Jody asks, what's it on?
- 40:00Andrew asks, it's on, whoops.
