We cover the sport of CrossFit from all angles. We talk with athletes, coaches and celebrities that compete and surround in the sport of CrossFit at all levels. We also bring you Breaking News, Human Interest Stories and report on the Methodology of CrossFit. We also use the methodology to make ourselves the fittest we can be.
When it comes to CrossFit,
there's one guarantee.
People talk way too much.
There are no secrets.
It's up next.
I love the chase and the hunt.
And I set the pace when I'm running.
I always take what I want.
And I always give it one hundred.
Don't need a bank.
No, I'm funded.
Play the game like it's nothing.
I'm always thankful for something.
Don't take for granted.
Stay humble.
Now wake up.
It's time to look at the enemy.
Look in the mirror.
If he is no friend to me,
it's not working out.
Maybe it's the chemistry.
It's time to break up.
So I can make a better me.
it's lunch time what is going on everybody
welcome to lunch with the clydesdale here
we are again taking a break from the
busy work day i've got it is such
a crazy week i thank goodness thank
goodness i get to speak with you guys
every day
What's going on Meredith, Frida,
John George.
I messed up the scheduling of the show
today.
I apologize for that off the top.
I initially set it for eight p.m.
Then John George made it clear to me
that I scheduled it for dinner with the
Clydesdale instead of for lunch with the
Clydesdale.
The breaks of doing things way early in
the morning and trying to keep up.
so we got it all corrected it's now
scheduled for we got it up and running
got it just in the nick of time

Today is her birthday.
So wish her,

any of that stuff,
make sure to wish her a happy birthday.
She's been such a great addition to this
channel.
I appreciate her so much and I hope
she has the happiest of birthdays today.
So.
That's all out of the way.
I gotta confess to you guys,
I am really,
really struggling this week to focus on
anything but the Bears playoff game this
week.
It's been five years since the Bears have
been in the playoffs.
The last time they were there was the
COVID year.
They have not won a playoff game since
So I am hoping,
hoping upon hope that we have a good
weekend.
But it is a crazy,
crazy football weekend starting Thursday
night.
With college football and the NFL,
there will be eight playoff games,
eight win or go home games between
Thursday and Monday night.
Um,
so a lot of football action if you're
into the football thing.
Um, so super stoked there.
Um,
there is a college football playoff game
Thursday night, Friday night,
and then two NFL games Saturday,
three on Sunday and one to finish up
the weekend on Monday night.
Um, so super fun stuff.
If you're into the football thing,
I can't wait for all of that.
Now, catch my breath.
What's going on, Jody?
Kenneth, Amanda, Kenneth,
I'll have a shot of maple syrup in
Carolyn's honor.
That is so nice of you.
I love maple syrup, but the real stuff,
not like the Aunt Jemima pancake syrup or
whatever other brands are out there,
Log Cabin, whatever else.
But man, you get like pure maple syrup.
It is so, so good.
Maple is one of my favorite flavors in
the entire world.
It's probably why I'm a Canadian-based
show or leaning show as I'm accused of
by Kenneth all the time.
But yeah, for my birthday,
my wife made me French toast and we
got real for live maple syrup and it
was so, so good.
I can only eat about
a piece maybe two if i push it
um because like it just it hits my
stomach really bad with that much sugar in
it but i only get it like once
a year on my birthday so that's when
i splurge two pieces of french toast uh
and some real maple syrup so
Yesterday, it's been leaked,
and that's kind of going to be the
theme of today's show.
Apparently,
there are leaks all over the place going
on right now.
Let me start with this.
This morning,
I watched Boys Interrupted Live.
It was leaked that the Chad workout
standard was leaked before the CrossFit
Games in twenty twenty four.
And they were giving Dallin crap because
he had the standard that he was practicing
on and others did not have it.
We had speculated that.
We had speculated that people knew.
There were video out there of people with
the box set up like what happened at
the CrossFit Games.
But they actually full out admitted it
this morning on Boys Interrupted.
So there were leaks on that workout.
Then you go to what's happening with CBG
and Chattanooga is kind of putting it out
there.
Leaks or rats.
CBG is offering a five hundred dollar cash
reward.
showed it on camera um for anybody who
exposes the leaks that are saying that the
crossfit games athletes that use his
program are not actually using the program
and he's offering a reward to identify the
rat
Everything CBG does is over the top.
That's kind of his brand.
This seems like such like eighties mafia
movie, pulling out a wad of cash,
offering money for the rat just seems over
the top.
I don't even know the details of
everything that's going,
going on with him, but good God, man,
like you run a business and I know,
I know you're so over the top.
He wears like the eighties sunglasses and
the chains and he does the stuff and
And I've actually talked to him quite a
bit.
It's just everything is kind of over the
top.
And then to come on when people are
saying that there's, I guess,
some evidence out there that people are
truly not using your program,
even though they say they do.
Shocking.
That happens in marketing and campaigns
all the time.
Now you're coming out, defending yourself,
looking like an eighties mafia guy,
pulling out your wad of cash.
All you need to do is roll it
up with a rubber band and say, Hey,
I'm offering money for the rat.
Tell me the rat.
Tell me the rat.
I'll give you some money.
What the hell dude?
Come on, man.
It just,
there's better ways to deal with it than
that.
Um,
guess he threw a two hundred dollar super
chat into a podcast last night uh saying
defending himself i'm not sure that is
everything that is the way to clear your
name or to make people think it's less
cringy it's so damn over the top throwing
money at it is not the answer
Cause that's kind of what you're accused
of.
You're accused of throwing money at
athletes to get your name out there,
to make your company bigger.
And now your solution to it is to
throw more money at it and just show
money.
You show people you have some money to
kind of clear your name.
And it, it's real bad PR move,
real bad PR move.
Um,
But it's just starting.
It's on his Instagram this morning.
He did a real show in the cash,
offering the money to find the rat.
But if you're in this business too,
and if you're in CrossFit,
let's look at the other side of this.
What has let you believe that CrossFitters
can keep a secret?
I think if you are in the CrossFit
space and you watch what's going on,
the one thing that you know is that
people are going to talk about what's
going on.
People are going to tell the secrets they
know.
It's happened this year alone with like
James spilling the beans about some stuff
that he was doing with Dave Castro earlier
in the year.
Um, it, and I, it,
I don't think it's all intentional or it's
all like in a, um, vindictive way.
I think sometimes these athletes are just
young and they,
they haven't learned discretion yet.
Um, it's.
And so if you're in business with these
athletes and they're nineteen, twenty,
twenty one, twenty four.
I'm not sure you can actually release
information to them and expect them to
keep it a secret.
And so to think that you can trust
people not to talk about what's going on
in this space,
you're not paying attention.
You're just not because...
And I've been in this space since two
thousand eleven.
I joined a CrossFit gym two thousand
eleven.
I volunteered for CrossFit events from two
thousand thirteen on.
People talk all the time and they talk
very openly.
There are no repercussions for talking.
And so they just say things.
So if you're in the business side of
CrossFit and you're working with these
athletes,
one expectation you cannot have is that
they're going to keep their mouth shut
during this time.
They're just not.
So now to be upset and flash your
cash to find the rat, dude,
you didn't have the right expectations
going in.
People are going to talk.
It's what happens in this world.
Crossfitters cannot keep the trap shut.
They just can't.
So for you to expect that and then
to come out and play the victim and
throw around some cash and say, hey,
I'm going to find the rat.
I'm going to find the person who exposed
me because I'm Joe Mafia.
It's too much.
Too much.
So.
speaking of leaks um it appears that john
wooley has been talking to some people and
found out that indianapolis is going to be
a tour stop on the wfp again this
year
don't have a lot of details on that.
Don't have like when that is.
Um,
there are rumors that it's the second tour
stop.
They're going to start in Europe and then
do a second tour stop in Indianapolis.
And I think they've already announced that
Copenhagen is going to be the final tour
stop.
So if they back down to three tour
stops again, that would be it.
You go Europe, Indianapolis,
and then back to Copenhagen.
Um, we don't know that for sure.
Some of that speculation, um,
But if they are in Indianapolis,
I'm going to try to go.
I've been dogging on them for...
With my smear campaigns for the last
little bit,
I want to go see it in person.
Indianapolis is two and a half hours away.
I'll drive over.
If I can't get media because I haven't
been really kind to them lately,
I will buy a ticket.
I will go in and I just want
to see what it's like live.
like all everything i've judged on is what
i've seen from their actions around the
sport and on the streams i want to
go see it in person and to see
if it's any better um
So I'm hoping that it is in Indianapolis,
and I'm hoping I can drive over and
at least catch a little bit of it
so I can give a more honest opinion.
Well, not more honest,
but a more complete opinion after seeing
it in person.
So, uh,
that is my hope that they are actually
in Indianapolis.
Now I want to say one more thing
about John Woolley.
Uh,
I know he gets ripped on a little
bit in the space, but man,
these little mini pods he does,
I don't always agree with him, but man,
it,
he really has found something that isn't
being done in the space doing these short
little mini pods on Instagram.
And, uh,
I don't always agree,
but they always make me think.
And they're very consumable.
It's very easy to digest in a short
amount of time.
And I just want to say kudos to
finding a different approach to things.
There's so many podcasts out there.
There's so many...
media outlets out there right now to do
something different in a short form is
really something different.
And I applaud him and they make me
think.
And a lot of times he makes sense
with things.
Sometimes I don't agree.
Sometimes I don't think it makes sense,
but I've always listened and it always
makes me think about the situation.
So kudos to him for finding that.
Yeah.
Prescott to, man, Prescott Ocigi.
I didn't try it.
His Ravens lost to the Steelers.
What a freaking crazy game.
If you're a Ravens fan,
that had to be heartbreaking.
Thank goodness my wife is a Steeler fan
and she's happy for a week.
Congratulations to your bear, Scott.
Yeah.
I wish we weren't limping into the
playoffs.
I wish we could have won a game
and not gone in with a two-game losing
streak,
but we're here and we get a shot,
so I'm happy about that.
Chad Anufi back on the CBG guy.
He's one of those people who word things
very specifically for a reason.
Yeah,
I just don't think he set himself up
with the right expectations.
I really don't.
And what's going on Lito?
So looks like Kenneth and Joseph are
making a deal to split the ransom money.
There you go.
Just be careful.
Don't mess up.
You might end up with a horse in
your bed in the morning.
Horse head.
Horse head in your bed in the morning.
It's hard to say.
Anyway.
So
another thing I wanted to talk about, I,
I was listening to the Monday night
CrossFit crew, uh,
from the WOD prep podcast,
which is really hard to say fast.
Um,
with CJ and Claire and John Young,
a couple of things I wanted to talk
about.
They talked about athleticism,
which we've talked about a lot on this
show.
And the reason we talk about it a
lot is I don't think that CrossFit
actually tests athleticism very much.
And
And everything is straightforward.
Like, if you're doing CrossFit,
you're moving forward and back,
but there's not a lot of lateral movement.
And really,
it's just testing skills and not necessary
athleticism.
The adaptability, the sprinting...
And the one comp that always tests
athleticism, at least in one event,
is Rogue.
When Rogue does the duels,
that is the best test of athleticism that
I've seen in the CrossFit space.
But it doesn't happen a lot.
And you can tell who the athletes are
by who does well in the duel.
When you look at the over-under on those
logs and you see how people get over
and slide under or dive under,
you can tell the people that play other
sports.
And our birthday girl, Carolyn Prevost,
is a prime example of that.
She is so athletic.
If you watch her Instagram,
some of the stuff she does by like
bounding over hurdles and stuff like that
is crazy.
But you look at like that event and
you can tell who did other sports.
Like Jason Hopper is athletic.
Ricky Garrard is athletic.
He played rugby before he came into the
sport.
Carolyn Prevo,
Paige Semenza played ice hockey as well.
Danny Spiegel is super athletic.
Laura Horvat, super athletic.
Tia Toomey is super athletic.
You can tell that those people played
other sports before they jumped into
CrossFit.
So I think it's kind of great that
at least one competition, big competition,
actually has an athletic test.
What I miss from the CrossFit Games is
they used to do that with the sprints,
the sprint obstacle course.
If you remember the famous video of Dan
Bailey losing his sunglasses as he hurtled
over an object,
That was in and out lateral movement,
jumping over objects and sprinting to the
end.
That tested athleticism.
I don't think we do that enough anymore.
the famous twenty nineteen games where
people got eliminated because they
couldn't stay inside their lines going
around objects as part of the sprint they
would step outside the lines and get a
penalty which cost them their games
weekend many of them the penalty was so
severe they fell off and and could not
recover from that and ended up getting cut
from the games um
That hasn't happened since then.
There has not been a sprint course.
There has not been anything like that to
test that athleticism.
Before the sprints,
there was the obstacle course,
the full obstacle course.
Or Mark Phillips reminds us of Matt
Frazier and Patrick Vellner's fancy rope
dismounts.
Yes.
It's adding something to the mix that you
have to adapt to quickly and show
athleticism to get up and over,
to go balance on the top of logs,
to swing from ropes and land on a
log.
Those are things that we don't test for
anymore.
And I really, really miss it.
And so I'm really glad that like CJ
and Claire and John brought this up last
night because it's a great discussion
point.
Um,
And if you watched Andrew Hiller's video
on his reconstructed WFP,
where he looked at things like this stop
would be a strength-biased test.
This stop would be a skills gymnastics
bias test.
And then the last one would be a
combination to test all the different
things, right?
And so...
one of the things that he brought up
was a very similar NFL combine type of
event.
And they talked about this last night and
they talked about it being like each
aspect of the NFL combine being like a
twenty point test.
Not sure like that was well thought out.
If you have thirty members doing it,
how do you split the points where there's
not just a lot of zeros?
But the one thing I want to ask
you,
is my friend,
and I love him to death,
John Young said that if they did an
NFL combine and he did it,
he would be able to finish top five
against the CrossFit Games athletes.
Now, I applaud John's confidence.
I applaud his belief in himself,
but I find it very,
very hard to believe that
That John Young going up against the Ricky
Garrards and the Jason Hoppers of the
world and the Dallin Peppers would finish
top five against those men in an NFL
combine style test.
So Kenneth says, J.Y.
is a very powerful athlete.
So what I will give him is his
bench press.
Not with that pec right now.
Apparently, the pec's not so bad.
He said last night he actually got up
on the rings and did some muscle-ups,
so it's not as bad as they thought.
J.Y.
may be a very powerful athlete,
and he may dominate the bench press.
But when you're talking like three-cone
drill, forty-yard dash, vertical leap,
all of those other things,
I don't see him competing with the best
in the world at CrossFit.
So, Mark Phillips,
bench is the only strength component,
right?
The rest is jumping speed, agility.
Correct.
Yeah,
that's kind of what I'm pointing out.
don't see him like beating people at a
three cone drill or um beating people to
vertical i think people are going to be
able to jump higher than john um uh
john george john young face palm palm face
whatever that's called and then laughs yes
mark phillips i don't see it uh john
gets more full of the odor he gets
Yeah, Jeremy,
it's the guy telling the fishing story and
the fish keeps getting longer and longer
as the more he tells the story.
John is a fairly big dude too.
So you're talking like vertical or,
and I think they do like a standing
broad jump too, right?
Which actually was a games event back in
the day.
There's no way with his size,
he's going to compete with some of those
other athletes.
He just isn't.
I'll give him the bench press.
He might even win the bench press.
Probably would win the bench press.
But I don't see him winning any top
five in the vertical, in the broad jump,
in the forty-yard dash.
I just don't see it.
Chattanooga,
if you make it an off-season podcaster
challenge, let's see Seve's combine too.
My money's on Hiller.
In the podcast world... Yeah,
Hiller's a good choice.
I would go with my Carolyn Priva, though.
My Jamie Latimer.
I think they would do pretty damn good.
They would lose the bench...
But Carolyn's vertical's got to be good.
Her broad jump's got to be great.
If you saw her broad jump onto the
box, it was mind-blowing.
Yeah,
Adrian Conway would be really damn good.
Yeah, Adrian probably wins.
Nice call, Kenneth.
Former college football player now and
games athlete and now
Podcaster, yeah, it's probably that.
John George,
this is coming from a guy that eats
McDonald's on the regular.
He would be dead last overall.
Sorry, John.
Well, damn, now, Jason, I'm not counting.
If you're an athlete,
a current competing athlete,
I don't count you as part of the
podcast world.
This is just a side hustle to your
main gig.
Frida,
with athletes being more and more focused
on CrossFit,
their capacity in something like that will
become less.
I don't disagree with you.
And I do think it should be tested.
And I do think they should find ways
to test athleticism.
But even at a lesser capacity,
I think that five of them beat John,
if not more.
What I find cool about Carolyn is Carolyn
keeps training it because it's fun.
She just trains it because it gives her
a break from her normal workout day.
And if you have not seen her sitting
broad jump onto a box, that's athletic.
I don't care who you are.
That thing blew me away.
and to not be fearful that the box
would slide out from under my feet when
i hit it because of the horizontal
momentum going towards the box and trying
to land on top and keeping it from
sliding while you land unreal unreal um
chata nufi uh that video is i think
those are thumbs up or stars stars
Oh, bananas.
Those are bananas.
Yeah.
I had to find the right lens in
my bifocals, Chetanufi.
All I could think of was my shins.
Yeah.
So then they got into this talk about
what is the ideal body type for a
CrossFitter.
And we don't need to go over it
a lot,
but I do think that back in the
day, body type was a big deal.
There was a time where the Rich Froning
body type was definitely more advantageous
than anything else on the men's side for
sure.
And anybody who kind of came in that
was an outlier didn't necessarily do as
well.
On the lower side, like Chris Spieler,
on the upper side,
it wasn't until Brent Fikowski came that a
taller athlete even had a shot.
And...
hit home runs and things that weren't
lifting.
There was a time where some taller
athletes came in and killed the lifts,
but nothing else.
And then Brent kind of came and changed
everything.
And he probably doesn't get enough credit
for that because when Brent came in,
he was a unicorn.
He was the only taller athlete that was
able to compete with the Matt Frazers,
with the Pat Vellners,
with all of those people.
And now when you look at the field,
it's pretty much all Brents.
It's Hopper.
It's Sprague.
They're all in that.
Even Dallin is six foot.
And so it's amazing how much things have
shifted over to that taller athlete.
And now the smaller you are,
the more disadvantage you're at.
And it probably goes down to all of
these damn machines.
Right?
Exactly, John.
John George, what's changed?
The continued use of an increased of
machines.
Brent was a true unicorn.
Great at classic CrossFit.
Do you think the workouts reflect the
bigger guys?
I do.
I think that the more machines,
the more power output that has happened
with those machines,
the more these bigger athletes have an
advantage.
I do.
But to give them credit,
they're also really good at classic
CrossFit.
And they're getting better at it.
So, you know, Jeremy says,
shout out to Chad McKay,
AJ Bartow for leading the way.
The problem with AJ Bartow and Chad McKay
is that they were good at some things,
but they didn't have the balance that
Brent had when he came into the world
of CrossFit.
Brent completely changed the game.
He was the one of one,
the unicorn that changed the game.
And all these new athletes probably owe a
lot to Brent in showing that it's
possible.
Like you have to have that first that
comes into the sport and shows you that
it, that can be done.
And Brent did that for everybody.
So, so huge shout out to him,
but it, it, so I don't even,
I think the ideal athlete now used to,
it used to be when rich was there
like five, six to five, eight and,
um, a hundred and ninety pounds.
That was kind of the ideal athlete.
And I think now we're looking at six
foot to six two and probably two hundred
and ten pounds.
So it definitely has swayed upwards into a
much bigger athlete than we used to have.
Do I think that carries over to the
women's side too?
I don't know.
I do think the smaller athletes are at
a much bigger disadvantage.
You know,
I used to go to CrossFit Polaris where
Christy Aramo-O'Connell owned it.
She was a much smaller athlete and she
had to work her tail off to be
competitive.
like for her top ten was realistic,
podiuming was not.
She just couldn't,
she just didn't have enough,
like if you saw her on an echo
bike,
she could barely touch the pedals and the
arms at the top.
They actually,
her husband customized one moving handles
down to make them lower and
And when they did that,
her power output changed dramatically just
in the design of the Echo bike because
she could actually get behind the handles
to really push.
The way it is designed now,
it was almost like it was above her
head to push.
And she couldn't get the power on it
like she could when he moved the handle
down.
And I don't,
I don't know why Rogue doesn't make a
version for smaller athletes like that.
You know, the row,
you can only pull so far.
Your pull strokes are only X, right?
And then you go to, like, Laura,
who's five-eight.
Christy's five-two.
That's six more inches that she can pull
that rower.
And then you look at a skier.
For some athletes,
they have to jump to get to the
handles.
So there is a very big disadvantage to
the shorter athlete.
I don't know if we've seen the trend
upward in the average height and weight of
the CrossFit athlete.
Tia is a slighter athlete.
She's not as small as Christy,
but she's not as big as Laura.
She's not as big as Katrin.
And
she has dominated so much and I think
she's skewing the numbers,
but Annie is taller than all of them.
Annie won in two thousand eleven and two
thousand twelve and she hasn't won since.
So.
I think that that is really.
I don't think it is impacted the female
side as much other than the very small
athletes are at a very big disadvantage.
Christy was so tiny.
She really was.
Amanda,
I've hit myself in the face with Echo
Bike handles.
I don't even know what,
like Rogue is so ingenious.
I don't know why they don't have a
way to lower the handles for a smaller
athlete.
It would actually decrease the gap between
the taller and smaller athletes.
Corey says, jump to get to the handles.
You talked about me.
Well, if the shoe fits, buddy.
Do I have a big old Chicago Bears
medallion on that thick chain necklace?
No.
No.
I do not.
Well,
then you would have to change other
standards like the width and a handstand
push up for people with longer arms.
Okay.
Okay.
I find the width of the parallettes when
they go to deficit handstand pushups
increasingly difficult for a taller
athlete.
So I don't disagree with you, Shannon.
I think that they should allow them to
spread them out a little bit more if
they are a taller athlete.
Frida,
there were a lot of tiny athletes prior
to twenty twenty one,
but not so many now,
I think I I don't disagree with you.
I think that the tiny athletes are the
outlier now.
And Jeremy.
Jeremy.
To have your rival be your first playoff
game in so long has me very,
very stressed out.
I hope I make it to Saturday.
I hope.
Corey says, five, six, one, eight, eight.
As of this morning, sometimes I feel tiny.
Because you are.
So, so we talked about athleticism.
We talked about body types.
I do think it's changing dramatically.
Um,
and then the last thing I just wanted
to touch on is, um,
I watched Hiller's Brittany Weiss video
yesterday.
Great video.
Talk about a cool chick, man.
That she just seems to have her life
in order and it was really, really cool.
Um,
I think I connected with it because she
had a severe back injury.
And it's,
it was the same one that I had.
And she talked about how her leg went
numb and,
and that she couldn't even like push on
a gas pedal because she couldn't feel her
leg.
And I can really,
really relate to that because I went
through that.
I had the same symptoms she had.
The recovery was awful.
Um, it's, it,
it really gave me a connection to see
what she fought through, um,
to get back to where she is.
And it's truly, truly a great, uh,
day in the life or a couple of
days in life, whatever it was.
And she's really funny.
She, um,
Just a great video to watch.
It's hard to describe because to me,
I felt like it was less CrossFit and
more about life and balance.
And I really enjoyed that.
It was very different than other things
that are out there.
And it's kind of like what I talk
about with the WFP and their stuff that
they're coming out.
The stuff that they are bringing out is
the same old, same old.
I tried to watch the Future of Fitness
video from the Buttery Bros.
Oh my gosh,
it's the same thing that I've seen for
ten years.
Where this Hiller one is completely,
completely different.
How she interacts with her family.
How her mom's her best friend.
How her dad doesn't work out.
And teasing him about it.
It was so, so good.
Yeah.
if you have not seen it make sure
to go check it out um he does
a really good job with it and i've
interviewed brittany a couple times she's
she's always been fun and energetic during
interviews um i did some post event stuff
at granite games with her she was awesome
and uh and it was really fun to
kind of see a day in the life
with her
And kudos to Hiller for putting that out.
Because she's not a top five athlete.
She's not a top ten athlete.
Her goal is to make the CrossFit Games
as an individual.
Yeah, she won as a team.
They talk about that.
They talk about what does that mean.
But she's not like your top five.
And it was excellent.
You got to learn about her.
Now you want to root for her.
and that's the stuff that that's the gold
that i think um not taking the top
ten the top five all the time and
just exposing them over and over and over
and over and over again and we know
everything this was someone that i really
wanted to learn more about it was awesome
to get to know her and he did
an excellent job in showing us like how
goals can be different
And how she doesn't want to do CrossFit
the rest of her life as a sport.
She wants to do it as a fitness
thing.
She wants to make the games.
And then she wants to ride off in
the sunset doing CrossFit as a class the
rest of her life and having balance.
And it was really, really cool.
Jodi,
I have a slightly different opinion of
that expose.
But overall,
I think she's an accomplished athlete.
Curious to know your thoughts.
As apparently Jay Birch wants as curious
to know thoughts as well.
So I just found it very enjoyable.
So
Anything else on the docket people?
I'll open it up to the chat.
We got about three more minutes and then
I've got to get back to work.
I do have an all day meeting on
Thursday.
Hopefully I can get away long enough to
do the show.
That's my only hiccup this week.
Other than that, we'll be here all day.
All week at lunch,
even if I post it for eight o'clock
at night, I'll be here at twelve fifteen.
Sometimes I just get in the groove because
my Sunday show is at eight o'clock.
That's what I hit.
Messed it up.
Um,
last thing I'm going to talk about is
third Z, um, third Z,
the stuff right there.
This stuff is awesome.
Uh, I am so much more energetic.
I'm sleeping so much better.
It gives me that recovery I need when
we're doing stuff around the house.
When I'm doing my light workouts,
it has that grass-fed beef collagen in it.
It's not melatonin.
Melatonin makes me feel awful.
This stuff doesn't.
Make sure thirdsy.com backslash jazzy gets
you fifteen percent off your order or just
go to thirdsy.com at checkout.
Type in the code jazzy with jazz hands
and
And there you go.
Fifteen percent off your order.
Easy as that.
An all day meeting.
Yuck.
Yeah, it's.
Yeah.
It's not even for my department.
A partner department is building a brand
new system and we have to send information
to them and we have to sit in
an all-day meeting to make sure that we
cover all the information that goes back
and forth and that it is accurate and
they pull from the right tables and that
they pull from... It sounds even more...
Yeah, double yuck.
There you go.
Double yuck.
It is...
I am not looking forward to it.
I just got it like ten minutes before
this show, the meeting notice.
I truly hate meetings.
If I didn't have to meet ever,
ever again, I wouldn't.
And these ones are just mind-numbingly
boring.
John George says, get a substitute.
The problem with the substitute for the
lunch show is...
that most of my people are busy during
lunch uh jamie is at her gym uh
carolyn is at school and maybe we get
corey there someday but i don't think he
wants to do a solo show yet um
but maybe someday we'll get him there
we'll see
And the other thing is you have to
have control.
You have to be able to sign into
the stream yard to launch the show.
Frida, I completely agree with you.
I would rather see it in writing and
write comments about it than to meet and
try to explain these things in verbal
communication.
It's much better written communication to
make sure we get everything accurate.
But people love meetings that I work with
and they're awful.
Not the people, but well,
some of the people.
But
The meetings are definitely awful.
With that,
don't forget to like and subscribe to the
channel.
I appreciate it so much.
Leave a comment.
That helps the algorithm so much.
And one last time,
happy birthday to Carolyn.
Hope she has a great day celebrating
today.
And we will talk to everybody next time
on Lunch with Clydesdale.
Bye, guys.
