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.
Well, the Cowboys back.
We are live for lunch.
Let's go.
From the gym to the screen, yeah,
we cover it all Midday motivation every

Clydesdale,

music on repeat Half hour hustle, yeah,
we building that brand Grab a plate,
tune in now,
you part of the fam Boom!
What is going on, everybody?
Welcome to Lunchtime.
That theme song is in my head now.
I wake up at like three o'clock in
the morning singing.
It's ridiculous.
It's really good.
Cowboys in the saddle today, man.
It reminds me of like a almost like
a nineties R&B type, you know,
like a SWV or somebody would have sang
it like that.
Not about us, probably, but you know.
Yeah, yeah.
Maybe no scrubs.
Yeah, that type of deal.
I don't know.
Yeah,
my wife and I were listening to a
lot of, like,
nineties hip hop this weekend.
So when you said that, like,
all this stuff's flooding through my head.
That's when I was bouncing in bars,
and so all that music was played nonstop,
and it is stuck in my head forever.
Some of that stuff, I say still,
like I go to the ballrooms nowadays,
but when we were still going out any
kind of regularly, was still being played.
Like,
Shoop is still a fairly popular song to
play now.
get the ladies out on the floor i
wish i was making that up but it's
not it that's not it i'm not making
that up so it's thirty something years old
so i was old enough to have two
mortgages yeah every time i hear um good
vibrations by marky mark and the funky
bunch i'd start to cross my arms get
in position get ready yeah you know anyway
um
Before we get into all the CrossFit stuff,
I want a huge shout out to Dex
Hopkins for jumping on with me last night.
You know,
Corey's got some stuff going on with the
family.
Then he's got Magic City this weekend.
And Carolyn and Jamie had given it all
yesterday.
And it was awesome for him to jump
on, give them a break.
And it's...
Dex is such an old friend in the
CrossFit space for me.
When I was volunteering back in the day,
I was working security in the warm-up
area.
That's where I met him.
That's when he had the long beard,
long hair, the whole nine.
Like a Viking.
Yeah.
And early on on this podcast,
he was on all the time.
used to call it uh clyde sale after
dark when dex came on and uh it
was it was a different kind of special
back then outstanding love dex joe was
great last night he was he was he
was really really good i enjoyed it he
is best at reminiscing like the dude has
been around crossfit since it's all
started his retention
Below is my mind, like the details, names,
because I can tell you all kinds of
stuff that I did,
but when I started having to remember
people's actual names,
I started calling them short.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Well,
he's not as old as we are yet.
Fair.
So he's got more stuff flowing into the
gray matter.
A hundred percent.
You know?
One quick thing before we jump into it.
I am releasing one lost tape of a
Masters athlete every day because of
Legends and Magic City,
just celebrating the Masters athletes.
They're going up on members only for
seventy two hours and then they will be
released to the general public after
seventy two hours.
So there's like six of them up already
on members only.
And then every day at eleven a.m.,
a new one's released.
They're all like five minutes short,
super quick,
just getting to know some of the Masters
athletes in the game.
I enjoy sitting and talking to them as
much as anybody.
And I think it shows in these interviews.
So they're not a big time waster.
If you just, you know,
have to use the facilities and you need
something quick to get you through,
it's a nice little five-minute view.
Also get to know some of your Masters
athletes.
You might be sitting on the floor
somewhere.
Yeah.
Hear a name somewhere and you're like, oh,
yeah.
Just heard Scott talk to him.
Yeah.
Fun stuff.
Jay Birch says, nice hoodie, Scott.
Yeah.
When I did that year at Rogue with
the documentary team,
got this nice little.
Very nice.
It is one of the most comfortable hoodies
ever.
Go run.
It has like the front pocket,
but it doesn't connect.
It's like two individual pockets.
You know?
It's weird when I first got it,
but I do kind of like it.
It's like having pocket mittens.
It's like my own little muff.
A hundred percent.
Yeah.
So this weekend,
I talked about it a little bit last
night, but since you're on the show,
both Lydia Fish and Jamie Latimer are
missed out on their invite to the CrossFit
Games by a half a step.
That's rough.
Lydia Fish,
if she would have beat Sydney Smith,
instead of losing by a half a step,
would be going to the CrossFit Games.
Damn.
If Jamie Latimer beats Carly Newlands,
instead of losing by a half a step,
she's going to the CrossFit Games.
Four points.
I am watching the stream.
I am yelling as loud as I can
for her to stop adjusting her belt and
pick up the dumbbells.
And my wife,
who never watches CrossFit ever,
is yelling at Jamie to pick up the
damn dumbbells.
Pick it up and go.
It's rough, dude.
You get those...
it's almost ingrained in most athletes
when you're competitive.
It's almost a nervous tick.
It's like, oh,
I need to do this before I do
this.
I need to do that before I do
that.
And nine times out of ten, you don't.
And I'm willing to bet she's going to
go back and watch that and go, well,
shit, why did I even do that?
She didn't have to go back and watch
it.
Yeah.
We talked minutes after.
She's already beaten herself up.
No, I'm sure.
And
I just tried to tell her like this
programming was not her wheelhouse.
Not at all.
For her to be in it showed the
fight that she has.
And she's,
she was supposed to have nine months of
recovery to a year from the hip surgery
and to go out on the floor with
the best in the world and be that
close.
before scheduled to be like okay to start
this stuff and the fact that her shoulder
is held together with duct tape and
freaking like chewing gum at this point i
mean she did phenomenal dude she's
absolutely phenomenal yeah she's fit and
she refuses to admit it but she is
elite level fit yeah i'm convinced if she
went to magic city she'd be going to
the games
It's way more in her wheelhouse.
So much, so much.
But man, when you're,
when you're that close to an athlete,
like she's my best friend, right?
Like we talk all that we talk every
day.
And I wanted it so bad.
And, like, it just hurt, man.
It hurt.
It put me in a funk.
And then we kind of come back and
rallied to do the show last night.
I was hurting, I'll admit.
Then, on the other hand, Carolyn,
complete domination.
Three event wins,
a second place and a fifth place.
I watched her, well,
just her finishing off the chest of war
sandbag one dude, and it was just silly,
honestly.
It really, really was.
She looked so casual, dropped down,
scooted across the line.
She didn't look tired.
What's crazy is now that she has that
ticket punched, now her focus is elite.
This weekend,
she's actually going to do WFP.
She's going to London.
She's doing WFP.
And then she's focusing on trying to make
the elite games.
She's going to NorCal for that, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And WFP is a good move on her.
I think it's a good move because with
all the people with Drew,
she has a legit shot to get a
pro card and fund her entire season next
year.
Absolutely fantastic, dude.
Absolutely fantastic.
Wish none but the best for Carolyn.
Really, really do, dude.
She's probably the most humble person in
the space at this point.
She's kind of like, oh, whatever.
whatever.
Right.
She's never like,
I'm going to come out here and smash
this kind of stuff.
Like she knows what she's good at,
but she's not throwing it up in
everybody's faces type deal.
And she just comes out there and just
smashes everybody.
The more you get to know her,
the more you realize she,
she's very confident in her abilities.
Confident is one thing.
Confident and arrogant is something
completely different.
She does.
Doesn't tell the public.
But like if we're talking workouts behind
the scenes, like she'd be like, yeah,
that's not a problem for me.
Hellson says she's not like Colton.
I don't know.
I think, I don't know.
Yeah, Colton is more like public persona,
like new Colton.
Not like five years ago,
but the new Colton.
The current Colton?
The new Colton gets it.
Sure.
In order to fund his season,
he has to be a public personality.
And he has embraced it,
and he knows what it takes.
I love it when he does a post-game,
a post-workout, post-event, whatever,
interviewing.
He just says stuff like,
these nerds knew I was going to come
out here and smash this.
Yeah.
yeah that's my favorite colton of all time
what's going on meg um hey i don't
know if this is public yet or whatever
but uh i'm going on glintons on thursday
let's point out yeah it's it's always
weird to like go on to a podcast
as a guest and control
because I don't get to dictate the
questions or the flow or the format.
On one side,
it's very exhilarating because I don't
have to do any of that.
I just get to react and hang out
and shoot the shit and do all that
kind of stuff.
And then on the other hand,
it's a little nerve wracking because I
don't have any control.
Good news is for you is that
uh garrett and colleen make it enormously
easy to be on there oh yeah yeah
yeah yeah like it it's it's fantastic um
i like every time i've been on dude
like you can go on it's very casual
it's safe but it's you know it's a
good conversation and it's not it's
definitely not and it's your favorite
color blue type stuff you know what i
mean
I've said it before.
I've said it a hundred times.
They're very,
very good at what they do and underrated
as a thing.
John George asks if their show is live.
It is.
Yes, it is.
It is every bit live.
Yes, it is.
It's live and it's super fun.
I've never tuned into one and not found
myself laughing at something that was
going on.
Yeah.
They don't think themselves as a great
community.
They have like a really cool community and
they do a variety of shows.
Like they had, they do the interviews.
They do just like hangout shows where a
bunch of the community comes on and talks.
I think they're going to be filming.
They're going to be filming Joseph doing
the semifinal workouts online.
Yep.
And those are,
those are fun to be in the chat.
So, yeah, check it out.
I'm sure it's all going to come out.
Meg says the details will be coming out
soon.
Dropping deep sometimes.
So, yeah,
I'm actually going to go finally get my
haircut to be on there.
I told myself I wasn't going to get
my haircut until my heart worked right.
Well, your heart's working right,
so no more suggestions.
yep now my heart's working right so i
got a scheduled appointment on wednesday
or you could just let the flow go
i debated it i debated i because it's
been a long time since i've had long
hair right uh it's been since the it's
been since the mid-nineties since i've had
long hair
no thank you no jeff i'm at my
home this is still my house that's outside
um well uh jeremy they even allow me
to come on and meg says yeah we're
questioning that decision i would too it's
only because his internet only works from
between the hours of nine in the morning
until like three thirty in the afternoon
and he gets shut off after that that's
because he um he bought his internet on
timu
I bet Scott can pull off a mullet.
Scott had a mullet.
Scott had a mullet back in the day.
And this is going to be embarrassing,
but I did the thing that no man
should ever do in the eighties.
And that was, I got a perm.
I got the mullet permed.
Oh yeah.
No, bro.
Down here, that was a thing.
Like when I was in probably...
fifth or sixth grade,
I never did it because my mom wasn't
going to pay for me to get a
perm no matter what,
but they would just perm the back.
So from here down,
it'd be curly as shit and then the
top would be straight mother type stuff.
Oh yeah, dude, I remember that well.
So my sister is a
She does hair,
whatever you want to call it.
So I got it for free.
I just had to go and buy the
little kit at the supermarket.
My vision was that my mullet was going
to be Steven Tyler from Aerosmith.
The reality was I became Gabe Cotta from
Welcome Back Cotta.
Welcome Back Cotta.
yeah yeah that's oh that's terrible uh
really not billy ray cyrus i am not
a country music fan i am a rocker
from back i really pictured steven tyler
with the curls down the whole bet bit
doing is uh oh which one with uh
Oh,
of course I can't think of it right
now.
I can see it in my head, though.
It'll come to me.
John Crook.
CrossFit,
if it would have come out as John
Crook, I would have been okay with that.
Right?
I would have been cool with John Crook.
I got Gabe Cotta.
I got the tight Afro curls.
Yeah, the itty bitty ones.
I grew a mullet to impress my wife.
Then everything shut down for COVID.
Turns out the joke was on me.
I remember, uh, right.
Whenever they shut everything down,
I made a post on Facebook.
At one point I said,
you see me a couple of months from
now and I have a mullet mind your
business.
Ain't nothing I can do about it right
now.
And, uh,
I made it.
I already needed a haircut.
I was in the same boat you were.
I already needed a haircut when everything
shut down.
And I made it about another three weeks.
And then I shaved.
Because Jennifer wouldn't.
She don't mess with nobody else's hair.
But I shaved mine in the driveway.
Like just all the way with my clippers
right there in the driveway to get it
off.
I couldn't take it no more.
I just have to say this to cows
and CrossFit.
If your wife is impressed by mullet,
you found the right woman.
A hundred percent.
That's all I got to say about that.
You married well, my brother.
Grown the Hogan mullet, bald on top.
Rest in peace.
Rest in peace.
I can't wait for the Netflix doc to
come out on Hogan.
Uh, something is out.
I don't know if it's that or not.
Cause I saw something about it on Netflix
the other day.
It might've just been that it's coming.
I it's it's soon.
It's either just came out this weekend or
it's coming soon.
Oh, it's out.
Okay.
It's out.
Yeah.
I pulled up Netflix and that was the
first thing that came up the other day
was that thing.
I need to watch it.
Might do that while I'm at the Airbnb
this weekend in between events.
Yeah,
it was such a sports-dense weekend for me,
like with the legends going on,
the NFL draft, Penguins in the playoffs.
I was having a hard time keeping anything.
And then my wife and I went to
the hardware store, Menards.
It's the Home Depot of the North.
Menards!
That's where a pirate says when he gets
kicked.
You're welcome.
I did not expect that one, man.
And I was,
we're going to make a patio.
And so I needed to build the frame
and I need to get some quick crete
and I needed to get some sand and
I'm loading the shit in my cart.
And all of a sudden I felt where
my incision was from the heart thing
starting to like expand.
And I was, oh shit.
Yeah.
Blind panic at that point.
I'm like,
I think we have enough quick cretin sand
right now.
Yeah, this is fine.
Just check out with what we got.
This is fine.
This will get us going.
Yeah, it'll get us started,
and then we'll figure it out.
Because technically,
I'm not cleared till today to do anything,
and now I'm not even sure how heavy
– because the Sentinel workout today is –
squat snatches and cleans yeah you should
be fine so that may be an empty
barbell workout for me today it's your pvc
pipe oh get you a broomstick i have
pvc pipes dude yeah but if you got
a broomstick then you could bring back the
uh the living room workouts that uh
them with some blue some blue water jugs
couple blue water jugs each side some
puppies then the couch from that
everybody's grandparents had in their in
their house perfect uh that i don't know
trish sorry no i don't know the broken
science met fix i did hear that uh
greg has left uh the building i did
I'm super curious at this point because if
he just retired,
retired now and just like, you know what,
I'm tired of all of this.
I'm just going to sit here and raise
my kids.
And I mean,
he's got more money than God at this
point.
So it's not like he needs to do
anything.
Right.
And if he entrusted to the people that's
running it and just let, you know, Hey,
this is a good thing.
My vision is still going.
I don't have to worry about it and
just can go sit back and raise his
kids.
Then more power to him.
Uh,
I have antifreeze,
but I've been on Facebook Marketplace,
can't find the plaid casting couch.
Having a hard time with that.
I'll let you know if I find any
around here.
So, you know what I can find?
Is Thirdsy.
All I have to do is go to
thirdsy.com backslash jazzy,
get fifteen percent off my order.
That's using promo code Jazzy at checkout,
fifteen percent off.
Get the best recovery you can,
because some of these athletes are doing
like two weeks in a row.
What better to help them recover from the
weekend before than some thirdsy to get
them a good night's sleep,
get that collagen protein in their system
and help them recover quick.
Olivia and Abby.
Right.
Back to back weekends.
And they qualified on the second weekend.
How insane is that?
Not to mention all the other ones that
were there that were also at Mayhem.
I feel like there was a fair
representation as far as that's concerned.
But that is absolutely insane.
That would be funny if someone created a
CrossFit persona based around those old
people on the seventies couch with the
antifreeze and CrossFit says we could call
it Danny No Flex.
I think, gosh,
I don't want to keep bashing on Bob
and Joe because I do think the event
came off pretty well.
They were on time all weekend.
There was exciting moments.
But the programming told you that if
Olivia and Abby could just recover a
little, they were going to be okay.
A hundred percent.
And to me,
that's more of an indictment on the
programming that they were able to come
back in a week and still win.
And Olivia, not by a little.
No, Olivia, by a lot.
Yeah.
And I heard Siobhan and Taylor go back
and forth about it this morning,
and I completely agree with Taylor.
Like, each workout on its own was fine,
and some of them were really good.
But when clumped together,
it doesn't make sense.
No.
They were five good individual workouts.
But as a unit,
which is what it's supposed to be to
make a complete test to get people to
the next level, it didn't make any sense.
No,
I would one hundred percent agree with
that.
And if you have three people within one
point of each other on the women's side
after five events,
it almost demonstrates you needed six.
Yeah.
I would agree.
I don't understand five.
I really didn't.
If you're going to have them there for
three days and you only need to do
five,
then you only need them there for two
days.
You can do three on one day and
two on the following day or two the
first day and three the second day.
It really doesn't matter one way or the
other.
um the difference in who got their tickets
was definitely not having a run with a
run i think danielle goes and not olivia
i disagree i think olivia had a big
enough lead that if she just could do
damage control on a run she would have
been fine it's abby that i think would
have lost her spot
There's a whole lot more involved in that
as well,
because it can't just be a run.
It would have to be a run that
makes, that makes a difference.
Does that make sense?
Like it needs to be a run that
actually this is part of the workout,
not just a run to get you from
one thing, a to thing.
Uh,
did they bite off more than they could
chew a program like an old garage games?
I think a program like an old garage
games.
Cause that's what they were.
Yeah.
And when they were their own thing that
didn't connect to the season,
be whatever you want to be.
I've said that a million times.
If you are not part of the season,
be you.
I've been to Legends twice,
and this is pretty much typical of what
they would have programmed.
The only thing that's different,
we might have swam if we'd have been
at Arizona because we did the pools there.
But this was very,
very typical of what they would have
programmed at a Legends competition,
which is fun.
If you're going for that,
but it doesn't necessarily... I mean,
because it's just...
You know what you're signing up for at
this point, right?
It's kind of like Rogue at this point.
It's going to be heavy.
But not to get people to the games.
Right.
They need some more balance.
Ortega says, if there's a run,
that also helps Emily Rolfe.
And that mixes up the leaderboard even
more.
Yeah.
You never know what...
that sixth workout would do yeah because
if it's a run that matters then the
whole leaderboard gets shaken up it's not
just and it also depends on where it's
at in the in the event as well
do we lead off with it like mayhem
did and now everybody's got tired legs for
the rest of it because running up running
up a mountain is no easy task right
especially when it's over three miles and
there's fifty burpee getovers in the
middle of it
Or is it in the middle of it?
And we just kind of see where everybody's
at as far as that's kind of concerned.
So, yeah, I mean,
all of that plays in.
It needed more balance in my quite humble
opinion.
Yeah.
From the running of the event and from
what I've heard about the support they
provided people there, I mean,
I have my own beef because they denied
me media credentials and my photographer,
which there was plenty of space.
Bruh.
That's a whole other thing.
That's a whole other thing.
So I have that beef with them.
And other, but other than that,
and it's the programming,
like if they just would have done a
little bit of better programming,
I think I could have gotten over the
media thing and, and moved on.
Did you see the boys last night?
Was I interrupting?
I have not seen it all.
I've only seen clips.
So they were saying that it was initially
supposed to be like triple three,
the first workout, the run, the whatever,
right?
And then basically the stepper people came
in and was like,
here's a bunch of money.
Let us use our whatever.
And that's why CrossFit's saying they sold
the windshield.
This sticker is dangerous and whatever
else, but I do like figure.
Yeah, I get it though.
When you're putting on these events,
they're not moneymakers and you have to
make your money where you can.
Oh, I'm not mad at them for it.
You got to take the money,
but then you adjust the rest of the
programming so it is balanced the rest of
the way.
take all the money you want,
but let's make it balanced across the
board.
Yeah.
You still have to,
you just have to be some concessions made
at some point.
Uh,
how'd Corinne get away with going live
famous athlete wife.
So my photographer did make it in,
but he had to buy a ticket and
he wasn't allowed to use anything other
than like a standard lens.
So he got some great shots.
If you go out to East McCaptures,
you will see some great shots from
legends.
But he didn't represent us because I
couldn't get him in for media.
And he wasn't allowed to use any kind
of a longer lens.
But he could shoot.
And he got some amazing shots.
I like the floor stuff.
Like he walked around the venue and got
people like...
chilling out with their families and stuff
like that,
which I thought were amazing shots.
Nice.
What was their basis for denying your
pass?
I read it out loud.
I read the email and they said essentially
that they had,
before they went public with the
application,
they had handed out all of their
all of their media credentials through
sponsors and other media obligations and
there were none left.
Then why post a public application?
Was my question then and it still is
today.
Bob and Joe are the only people that
have ever denied me media credentials in
the past four years.
so it just it just sucks because i'm
glad he got in and got his shots
it would have been cool if he could
have been there for us and i could
have shown some representation there um
but again i've done a lot for the
masters community a lot for legends
including and i've mentioned them on here
i did an eleven part documentary behind
the scenes of the twenty four games i
did um i interviewed every single winner
of legends two thousand twenty four um and
collaborated with them on all of it and
it just sucks it just sucks
i should have just let him sign up
as a backfill masters athlete floor access
easy there you go just get out there
with your camera in your hand three two
one go everybody else takes off running do
it for bob and joe
When I did it back then,
I didn't do it for anybody but the
Masters community.
And I put out a collaboration with Legends
on every post I made,
and I sent them the links.
And they still haven't accepted the
collaboration.
They still haven't done anything with the
links.
And that was...
And I didn't charge them a cent.
And that was two years ago.
It was literally free publicity.
And I got paid back last year's games
by not having any access other than what
a spectator had.
No.
You basically got a free weekend pass.
Which you still got some great
conversations with people.
I did.
And that's what matters.
And I find ways to pivot whenever things
are against me.
And I will continue to do that moving
forward.
A hundred percent.
But that's the way it is.
I did find out this at Legends, too.
Masters athletes were not drug tested.
I wish somebody would drug test me.
I really, really do.
I'd feel so honored.
I'd be like, shit, yeah, let's go pee.
What sucks, though,
is now Masters athletes are going to know
there's no drug test at in-person
semifinals.
And that means they know they're not going
to get tested until the games.
And unless you're bad at math... Yeah.
Easy day.
It's still...
It's a easy day.
It's a easy day.
So, yeah,
I was talking with the girls last night
and I'm like, did any of,
cause I wanted to know if Jamie got
drug tested.
And so if anybody ahead of her would
fail, would she get the ticket?
Blah, blah, blah.
Right.
And they were like, nobody got tested.
Were they even on site to test?
I did like got tested.
i see bruce says that means next year's
his his year get it alonzo oh uh
in the words of the cowboy that's crazy
town banana pants it really really is no
drug testing is this is that true is
this true
John George is heading to the pharmacy
now.
I don't I don't get it.
I really, really don't.
I don't.
And I never will.
It's probably not for me to understand at
this point.
But I just don't understand why not.
Like what's not it's fine.
It'll be fine.
Hey, you extremely tan man with veins.
Don't you know everyone gets ripped and
jacked in their fifties?
One thing that was not covered this
weekend that needs to be covered is Sam
Dancer's mustache.
God, yes.
At this point,
Sam Dancer's mustache deserves its own
Instagram page.
It really,
really does because it has a personality.
Tom Selleck is calling around to find out
where his went.
We found it.
We found it.
It's to the point where they had a
camera on him.
Whoever was chasing him down with the
camera, after he put the barbell down,
he kind of looked over and thought they
were an athlete,
so he picked up his pace and whatnot.
I didn't know who it was for a
second.
When he turned around, I was like,
what is happening right now?
And it looks like this.
He turned his head and I was like,
what in the hell is happening?
In addition to the stat,
Sam is looking good.
Yeah, he is.
Yeah, he is.
God bless him.
So good.
And I love when he was doing the
post interview with Taylor and he said,
man, I thought I would win this one,
but damn it, Scotty P. Damn it,
Scotty P.
and nobody p all i can think of
is we're the millers you know yeah you
know you know uh also sam no nobody
calls him scotty p but you nobody's ever
said that but sam sam has his own
language if you've ever talked to sam
Sam is always who Sam is going to
be,
and he will never try to be anybody
else.
That's one of my favorite moments from any
of the documentaries.
Matt Fraser asking Sam if he was going
to warm up before the deadlift after the
run at the ranch.
And he said, dude,
I just ran four Ks.
I'm warm.
Jay Burch says it can't be as iconic
as E's or Ortega's.
So you're talking a different style.
It's a whole different style.
Tega and he have this Salvador Dali look
going and it's beautiful and it takes a
lot of work and it's awesome.
Sam is flat out.
Seventies porn star, Thomas Magnum,
just full.
She,
and he's just like two weeks away from
Wilford Brimley.
A hundred percent, dude.
A hundred percent.
It's almost a Walrus.
Like,
he turned around and it was like,
and it's dark.
You know what I mean?
Like it's full and it's like brown, brown.
It blew me away.
It absolutely blew me away.
Yes.
Sam did that deadlift on a broken leg.
That was dude.
That was impressive.
He just stood it on up.
Like,
Put it back down.
You got any more?
Yeah.
More weight?
He just kind of casually looked around.
He wants to know who wins a two-person
team competition between the oars and the
panchecks.
Wow.
I've got to go with the Tumi oars.
I would probably go with the Tumi oars.
Okay, so let's quantify that.
Is Tia pregnant while they're competing?
If she is,
it makes it a closer race.
And it depends on how pregnant she is
too, right?
Because if she's three months pregnant,
it's not even close.
If she's seven months pregnant,
it's probably a better race.
And that's no slight on Scott and freaking
Christian because they're amazing.
But
Tia could probably be both of them
together by herself.
Healthy Tia.
Healthy Tia.
I think, I don't, you know,
it's probably a better question than I'm
giving it credit for.
I think it is because I do think
Scott dominates Shane and Tia dominates
Kristen.
And in my head, just immediately,
I'm thinking Tia dominates Kristen way
more than Scott dominates Shane.
And Kristen's fit.
But Tia is a machine.
Yeah.
To kill John Connor and to just keep
winning the CrossFit game until she
decides that she's tired of it.
What I would like to see.
So you,
you remember the video from a documentary
of Tia and Shane in, uh,
in Rich's basement training, right?
While everybody else is upstairs partying
and downstairs training.
And like, he's like, Shane's like, no, no,
I didn't say five.
I didn't say four.
I said five.
Just based on that, right?
Knowing that that's that coach athlete,
I would love to see them partner together
or a comp like that.
And just Tia, just skull dragging him,
like just taking out the past,
years of training and everything else that
she's done.
It's like, come on, bro.
Let's go.
Like,
you want to yell at me while training?
Let's go.
We in this comp right now.
I would pay good money to see that.
Cross fat.
Thanks.
Sam hit it with some,
just for men that with the flow of
that mustache and as thick as it is,
I don't hate them for hitting it with
some, just for men.
Not at all.
Not at all.
Can I say I tried just for men?
My beard hair grows so fast that I
would have to just for men every morning
to keep the gray out.
You'd have to keep the comb handy?
Yeah, pretty much.
I'd have to put a little in midday
just to... As Robin Williams used to say,
man,
I got five o'clock shadow at nine a.m.
Bro.
Rest in peace, Robin.
That dude...
His arm hair had arm hair.
Tia wanted to smack Shane.
Yeah, she did.
You said one more.
I've been letting the gray come in for
several, several years.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
We got to let it roll, bro.
You got to let it roll.
It's part of nature.
So I got something fun for you.
No, because we haven't had enough yet.
Sweet.
I'm in.
Have you seen this?
I have not.
So this picture in the middle is from
January thirty first of twenty thirteen
where Ariel and Dylan did a move thirteen
years ago.
See it?
Okay.
They're going to try to reproduce it in
twenty twenty six.
Hmm.
The instant replay.
Sorry, I'm injured.
Are you okay?
He's like a lump on the floor.
He tells her that he realized he needed
to grab the calf, not the thigh.
Yeah.
Then once he got the calf,
they got it.
That's outstanding.
I want to say when my daughter was
a year old, maybe.
Something along those lines.
We went to family pictures.
Our photographer is also a close friend.
She's over there and she's messing with us
or whatever.
I kind of took Jennifer and I dipped
her a little bit.
then kind of picked her back up leslie
said that was super cute do that again
and i was like okay and i went
to go dip her again and my wife
very very much she's the smartest person i
know said thought she was going to help
me in the room she is she's right
over there she's she thought
I'm going to help him and like threw
herself back and threw and consequently
threw herself completely out of my grip.
So and Leslie got the whole thing on
camera.
She just kept snapping the entire time.
And you see.
And then my face going, oh, no.
She threw herself completely onto the
ground as I'm sitting there trying to
catch her before she hit.
It was fantastic.
Smartest woman you know.
Smartest woman I know.
Smartest woman I know.
Sitting right over on the couch,
not about to watch Charlie and the
Chocolate Factory.
Wayne says,
have you seen the meme for Time Post
about Legends Regionals?
I have.
It is really, really good.
That is some of his best work.
absolutely some of his best work yes some
of the names he pulls out and dude
so so far and if you haven't seen
it he it's basically him going to del
mar thinking it's twenty fourteen
regionals and he's looking for the
progenics booth he is all twenty fourteen
stuff yeah lauren fisher's in it rasmus is
doing handstand push-ups
He's dogging Rasmus about his handstand
pushups.
And then, yeah, Lauren Fisher.
Why aren't you out there?
Aren't you supposed to be on the floor?
She just turns around.
She's like, no.
He's looking for the Progenix booth.
It's fantastic.
Weren't the vendors supposed to be here?
Yeah.
In the parking lot.
Yeah.
Because back then there were so many.
Yeah.
Now they just have like a couple behind
each rig.
Oh, that was a great, great meme.
Great.
Yeah.
That's one of his, some of his best.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Well, it's been fun.
We,
we have a big week ahead with magic
city coming.
Corey is competing,
trying to punch a ticket to the CrossFit
games.
And we've got WFP with Carolyn competing
there.
And we have Copasaur.
Oh, is that this weekend?
Yeah.
And we have Far East Throwdown.
That I knew was this weekend.
Shout out to my girl, Sammy Pugh,
trying to punch a ticket to the games.
So I thought last weekend was a dense
sports weekend,
just with the CrossFit stuff that's going
to be out there.
It's going to be crazy trying to keep
up with it all.
So this week,
we'll look at some programming.
If you want to know about Magic City
programming, last night with Dex,
because Dex lives in Birmingham.
Dex is tight with Micah.
You got some good insight into the
programming and what the events are going
to look like.
He was awesome with that last night.
We'll dive into Far East.
We'll dive into Copa Sur this week.
And...
All of that.
All that.
And CrossFit says the Pens aren't dead
yet, too.
However,
they probably will be by the weekend.
I have no confidence in the way they
have been playing.
If they play the next three games like
they played Saturday night, we're okay.
But I don't see it happening.
God bless you.
I have no idea.
I believe you.
Craig, I said WFP.
One hundred percent said WFP.
I'd said WFP because Carolyn's going to be
there competing.
You know,
I put in my application to be able
to go to Indianapolis and they said they'd
get back to me in a week.
Yeah.
So that was what, fourteen days ago?
Still don't know if I'm allowed to go
to Indianapolis for that one.
Well, you're allowed to go campaigns.
You're allowed to go whether or not you
actually will have access.
It's a free country.
You go to Indianapolis any time you want.
Are you going to do a show with
the girls this week?
I am not.
Because Carolyn is literally flying home,
getting on another plane,
and flying to London.
So she is not available this week.
God bless her, dude.
That's a lot of fun.
jamie is flying back from california she
runs a gym her she's going to be
playing catch up all week and but she'll
be back this sunday night so jamie and
i will be live recapping magic city wfp
copasur and far east throwdown
see if you can get an interview with
diego pavia i hear you every time he
got picked up by the ravens did it
really i'm drafted for you yep so we'll
see last thing with is my wife is
the biggest taylor fan she's a redhead
right yeah and
And I think there's something where all
redheads feel like together.
That they are connected in some way.
The Steelers drafted an Iowa lineman with
the last name Dunkers.
Who has a mullet.
And it is full ginger.
I know exactly who you're talking about.
That dude is amazing.
They are now calling him the Ginger
Yinzer.
Because he's in Pittsburgh,
and my wife now has a new favorite
player.
I saw plenty of covers.
Sorry,
he popped up on Instagram almost once a
week leading up to the draft.
That dude looks awesome.
Diego Pavia was also invited to Legends.
He was.
Bro, the Pavia memes are everywhere.
I love it.
Yeah, so she's super excited.
I know you brought him up like months
ago that this guy had this flow.
I think his name is Jennings.
Or maybe Jenny, one of the two.
So you've seen him now?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Absolute legend.
Packers picked up a Penn State edge.
Dennis Sutton is any good.
I wanted the Bears to get him,
if that tells you anything.
Super quick twitch, quick off the ball,
a little bit undersized.
But I think across from Micah Parsons,
not getting double teamed,
it actually pisses me off he's with the
Packers.
So there it is.
I think that'll tell you everything.
I hate that he's a Packer.
And Jeremy says bears still suck.
Yeah.
All right, guys.
Larry Young,
keep teaching Shelly how to ride that
bike.
If you have not seen Larry Young's post
where he's riding a bike backwards and
Because he has to teach Shelly how to
ride.
It is priceless.
I wish I could pull it up,
but I got to get back to work.
We'll be back tomorrow previewing some of
the stuff for this week.
Hope you all have a great rest of
your day.
