Today is Tuesday.
It is the beginning of a long podcast
day for me.
We've got this show, we've got Yay Sports,
and we've got the Sunday Night Crew
breaking down WFP tonight.
So let's get it rolling.

It's lunchtime!
What is going on, everyone?
Welcome to Lunch with the Clydesdale and
the Cowboy.
Oh, and Vicki, apparently.
How about that?
Yeah.
She just popped in the back door again.
Yeah, well, she's sneaky.
I heard the screen door slam.
Mm-hmm.
That's how I knew.
You know, a whole lot of, oh, shit,
oh, shit, oh, shit, oh, shit, oh, shit.
Yeah.
Like me at, like,
you know i never ever got away with
that my mom was the biggest night owl
ever and there was no way i was
going to sneak in at night without her
knowing it wasn't my mom it was my
dad so once my mom was asleep she's
asleep like she's out like she's out like
a light it's ridiculous but my dad would
be up and he would just be sitting
there in the dark and sitting
Come in, just open the door real slow,
and he'll be like, you're a little late,
huh?
And I was like, fuck, yes.
Night, going to bed.
All right.
Yeah, I'd get home.
My mom's there watching the Rockford Files
and Barnaby Jones reruns.
Yeah.
And if you know any of those shows,
you are as old as me.
Oh, the Rockford Files.
I love it.
Jim Rockford.
Yeah.
So, yeah, fun day, fun day.
I'm going to get into this real quick
and then I'm going to get past it
because I just I don't want to talk
about it.
We have said from the beginning on this
show that this whole media beef fight,
whatever you want to call it, I don't.
to me it makes absolutely no damn sense
for the media to become the news no
that's a problem actually right like yeah
like we shouldn't be the news we should
be the the people reporting on the news
or the people sharing the news or whatever
right absolutely so i've said from the
beginning i have friends on both sides of
this argument
To be honest,
we are not in any of the circles.
None of the circles.
Have I made a conscious decision to not
be in a circle?
Maybe.
But I also haven't been asked.
And that's okay too.
It's a neither here nor there thing.
We haven't.
You haven't.
I know I haven't.
Like you said, been asked at all.
nor have I made an intentional thing to
do one or the other.
I am perfectly,
and I think I can speak for you
here,
I'm perfectly content just seeing it all
play out and wonder why it's even a
thing.
It's so frustrating because it is...
As everybody's saying in the chat,
it distracts from the athletes and trying
to grow the sport.
And I've been saying this for weeks.
The fact that in Dave's Week in Review,
every week we have to have a John
Young comment.
It's the same John Young comment.
It happened a month and a half ago.
Can we just move on?
Right?
Can we just move on?
Absolutely.
So last night I'm watching the review of
the Week in Review.
finishing up some stuff to prep for this
week.
And I hear my name.
And I'm like, wait, what?
Well, not my name, but my moniker.
Correct.
And that Savant said,
and then I was reminded that I got
Clydesdale credentials for the games.
And so I was like, wait,
how am I ending up in this whole
apology explanation thing as to what's
going on with Hiller and Young and John
Young and Savan and Taylor and all this
stuff that's been going on?
How did I show up there?
And what I will say is,
That's not one hundred percent accurate,
but it is somewhat accurate.
I have had credentials at the CrossFit
Games since twenty twenty one.
Twenty twenty one.
I got them through morning Chaka.
Twenty twenty two and beyond.
I got credentials via the Clydesdale Media
Company and the reputation that we have
built.
What happened last year was.
was i got into my feelings about who
was saying they had um accessed uh that
enhanced access thing yeah i was talking
to jenny about it when i talked to
jenny
I was just saying,
I can't believe they got it and I
didn't.
And I didn't really like,
I wasn't doing it for any certain purpose.
I was just venting to someone I considered
a friend.
It's twenty minutes later and I get
notification that I now have enhanced
access to the games.
So I went from regular media credential to
enhanced access.
I get that message from Siobhan and from
Jenny back that I now have it.
And then I get the email from Jenna
Hauka saying that I have it.
So all this happened within like,
twenty minutes.
Siobhan and Jenny both said to me,
please do not mention how this happened.
Do not say who got you or who
played a role in getting you this enhanced
access.
And because that is the way I roll
and I don't share information that I'm
asked not to share,
I never shared that information.
Even though I felt weird about it,
not being able to thank them for that
at the time and felt like a little
bit of an imposter when I got the
enhanced access and people were
congratulating me.
Right.
But it did happen that way.
so that is one that is one hundred
percent the account of what happened i was
asked not to share it but now that
it's being shared i feel like i need
to explain what went down please don't
share this until i do in the middle
of a rant about other stuff that'd be
fantastic so it's fine it's out it's over
it's done i don't understand why
You and I already had this conversation.
I'll bring that up again.
Moving right along.
How about that?
And this year, I got access again.
I got access for Ishmael.
And honestly, last year,
I got two enhanced accesses.
I got myself and Ishmael both got enhanced
access.
This year,
we got a lanyard to be down in
the pit and the warm-up area.
I gave that to Ishmael because his content
is way better than mine.
Turns out he's an actual photographer.
Right, right.
So I let him go nuts.
That was just through our normal
application this year.
And so there it is.
So I just wanted that to be understood
because I have been getting DMs and texts
this morning like, wait,
Savan got you access last year?
He got me enhanced access.
I had access.
I had credentials.
I just didn't have enhanced.
But I do want to say this too.
The reason I hate this fight is both
Savan and Hiller have been a huge part
in the success of this show.
So Vaughn has recommended this show to
people on his own show.
He has had me on his show.
And he has talked about things that we've
talked about.
And all of that has elevated this show
in certain respects.
On the other side,
Hiller has shared videos that we've put
out.
He has clipped us.
He has used us as an example in
things.
And all of that has increased our views,
our engagement, our subscribers,
all of that.
So between the both of them,
they've both helped elevate this show in
some ways.
But never have we been in the circle
of either side.
Nope.
And I appreciate both of them.
I appreciate both of them for what they
have done for me.
And I consider all of them friends.
Do I talk to them every day?
No.
I talk to Corey every day.
I talk to Jamie every day.
I talk to Carolyn every day.
And I talk to Vicki every day.
That's who I talk to every day.
Everybody else I talk to,
I see them at the games.
We interact.
I am cordial with everyone.
And I hate that everybody's fighting.
Again,
it comes back to what are we here
for?
What is our purpose?
And my purpose is, one,
to have a way as an outlet of
a dream that I had when I was
sixteen years old.
And that was to be a sports broadcaster.
And this is a way to do that.
And the other thing is I love these
athletes.
The more I get to know them,
the more I love them,
and the more I want to promote them.
So that's what we're here for.
And if you ask me not to say
anything, I'm not going to say anything.
And that's a reputation I've built with
the athletes.
Hey,
and I can confirm that because Scott's
told me a whole bunch of stuff that
he's heard from a source,
and I still don't know who those sources
are.
And I talk to this dude every single
day and confirm.
If you tell Scott something in confidence,
he is going to keep it in confidence.
He's going to take that shit to his
grave.
Unless you say it out on a podcast
live for thousands of people.
Well, I mean,
you just made it fair game at that
point, right?
That's a different thing.
So and the last thing is the reason
I do this is because CrossFit saved my
life.
I started this whole methodology with my
next door neighbor in two thousand eleven
because I was five hundred plus pounds.
And it saved my life and it means
a lot to me and I want to
pay it back in some form or fashion
in any way I can.
just here so i don't get fined uh
amanda fillers i have plenty of divorce
friends and i'm still friends with both
sides same same so i'll give her that
um we we have uh some divorce friends
that we we want to pick the side
on but there was a good reason for
it uh me too scott i came into
this space because i love crossfit i liked
all the shows and people i don't want
to see it go south you'll neither
And I think that's why it was so
refreshing at WFP.
And so because there was none of that
at WFP.
All I had to do was turn off
the comments.
and everything was fine right oh yeah
because i was in a bubble i was
at wfp yeah and all i had to
do was shut off the comments in the
outside world and it made the wfp one
of the most enjoyable experiences i've had
I do the same thing every year for
the games.
And I've said this before.
I told Garrett and MNS,
I'm pretty sure I've said this on the
show,
when the games run around or actually any
live competition that is being streamed,
I tell myself,
I'm not going to watch the comments.
I'm not going to put the comments up.
I'm not going to put the comments up
because I know what's going to happen.
Right?
Everybody needs to bitch.
It's the most ridiculous thing on the face
of the planet.
So I turn them off for a little
while and then I go,
let me go see what everybody's saying.
I just, it breaks,
I break down and then Jesus H Christ.
It just, it continually happens.
It continues to happen.
Who can't see stuff?
Oh, what's going on?
Oh, man, man, man, man, man, man, man,
man, man.
I'm like, bro,
y'all need to do like lighten up.
Good.
And everybody is like a dog with a
bone.
Oh, yes.
That they will never let go.
Ever.
They latch on to one thing.
Like the funny thing is the garage
affiliates that comes every week in
review, right?
That's the funny thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like that will be in every week in
review.
That is a running joke.
That is a running joke that has been
happening for shit months and months now.
And it's, it is what it is.
Somebody's going to bring it up.
And I think Daisy, well,
Dave's playing into it at this point,
right?
Because it's,
Now he sees something and he's like garage
affiliates.
Okay.
Cause he's said it on his weekend review
that he's picking these comments.
So like you're picking this stuff about
the, the,
the garage gym affiliates and now,
and it's,
and it's now it's Hobart's garage gym
affiliates because they just,
everybody decided that apparently Hobart's
in charge of it,
whether he wants to be or not,
which is even funnier in my opinion.
Yeah.
And that's the funny dog with a bone.
There are so many,
so many dogs with a bone that are
not funny.
No.
That we just cannot forgive anybody for.
And it's utterly ridiculous.
Like the fact that there is a John
Young comment every week in review now.
That happened five weeks ago.
Five weeks ago.
And we're still talking about it.
Yeah.
Let it go.
I'm pretty sure John's over it at this
point.
Unless we have a flux capacitor,
we cannot change what happened.
You need a flux capacitor and a DeLorean.
The stainless steel construction allows it
to conduct the electricity better.
The one point twenty one gigawatts
throwing it out there.
I have a version of the DeLorean,
but I don't fit in it.
You need a bigger Lego version of it.
Social media has given everyone a platform
to complain about everything.
Life's so much easier without it.
Everybody's got a voice and they think
that it needs to be heard.
And then you get influencers and people
that the algorithm throws at you and
telling you that your voice matters.
Oh, your voice matters.
Absolutely, your voice matters.
And people believe that shit.
And so they get on there and they
hit caps lock.
I'm going to yell it to the rooftops.
And I'm going to say it forty seven
times in a live chat.
where you can't not see it at that
point and it's like dude go outside
breathe some fresh air i want to affiliate
my garage fake savan i want to affiliate
my garage but i don't need to ask
the question every week to see the update
no i think they are well aware that
there are people out there that want to
affiliate their garage
And I am sure that they are working
on it in some capacity.
And at some point, we'll get noticed that,
hey, you can now affiliate your garage.
It's like the kids in the backseat of
the car on a road trip going,
are we there yet?
Are we there yet?
Are we there yet?
Are we there yet?
Are we there yet?
That is so true.
Bro,
we're going to get there when we get
there.
And if y'all don't shut up,
I'm going to turn this car around right
now.
Absolutely insane, dude.
I take offense to this.
Influencers,
a made-up job made to make people feel
important.
Vicky, like,
changing the comment on me mid-sentence.
While I'm reading.
It takes forever for me to read something.
I'm finally reading,
and then it gets taken away halfway
through the sentence.
Vicky, you know the man gave up.
Like,
this is the only kind of reading he
gets.
Let him finish his sentence.
Why do you think the...
Son of a bitch.
What the hell?
Perfect.
It never goes anywhere.
Money.
As in CrossFit HQ wants full box affiliate
fees, not a fraction.
They can put rules around it and
stipulations that you cannot coach anybody
out of your garage affiliate,
that you cannot run it as a CrossFit
gym, that it is just in name only.
And here's a little package.
Thank you for your support.
Basically,
we're allowing you to do the open in
your garage.
Five hundred dollars,
and it's a way to make money other
than through the normal traditional
affiliate fees.
Right.
Anyway, moving right along.
I'm going to hit this starred comment and
hopefully it doesn't change.
Take a deep breath.
It is kind of crazy that a CrossFit
coach with a podcast can occupy that much
space in the heads of leaders at a
two hundred million dollar company.
Maybe that energy would be better served
focusing on growing CrossFit.
I don't think he occupies that much space
in anybody's head.
I think it's just right there in front
of him.
So he just grabs a hold to it
because it's right there in front of him.
It's the same dog with a bone comment
that Scott was making analogy that Scott
was making earlier.
Like, Oh, it's right there.
Let me just go ahead and address this.
Right.
Anyway, moving right along.
So that is that,
that everything is out there.
I just wanted that to be cleared up
and I want to move on to the
fun shit we normally do on this show.
Why I'm here, baby.
So there it is.
I watched a movie last night called Beast.
Oh, with the lion that was hunting people?
That one?
No.
Okay.
No,
this is a movie about MMA in Australia.
Oh, not the same beast.
Got it.
And the script was written by Russell
Crowe.
Oh, I do like Russell Crowe.
And Russell Crowe's in it.
i would say he's not a major uh
yes let's uh let's get the uh vicky
is sabotaging scott today yes she slid in
the back door late and she's just going
wild and crazy back there it's amazing um
yeah beast that's it oh yeah i saw
the trailer for that i didn't know i
didn't get a chance to see it look
pretty good yeah crow's like a uh like
a coach well
I don't want to do any spoilers.
He does not play a major role.
If you're watching this to watch Russell
Crowe, you will be sorely disappointed.
Mark's got the least popular Hemsworth.
I'm assuming he means Liam.
No, it's Luke.
Luke Hemsworth.
Oh!
Yeah, even less popular than Liam.
That's less popular than Liam.
Damn.
Yeah, it...
And he plays even a smaller part than
Russell Crowe.
So the two names that anybody even has
any idea of are non-existent in this movie
for the most part.
He got Maximus Decimus Marinius in his fat
days and one of the Hemsworth boys that
nobody actually knows who he is.
Cool.
But it turned out, like, as it started,
I was going, oh, man,
this is not going to be good.
Right.
And then it kind of caught some momentum
and it got... All right.
Let's be honest.
Anytime you're watching a fighter movie,
you're thinking, okay, here we go,
Rocky XLVII.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And it does have a rocky formula to
it because it is a fight movie and
you're going to get that.
Unless you are – what's the MMA movie
with the brothers?
Oh.
And it's – Tom Hardy and – Yeah,
Tom Hardy.
That's it.
Gosh darn it.
can see that warrior warrior warrior yep
warrior yeah so that one i think is
not in a rocky formula at all because
of the brother story and all of that
stuff this kind of goes down that same
path as rocky but i like by the
end i was i mean i was like
goose bumping and okay really but i'm a
sucker for that kind of movie i and
i will admit it so if you're taking
my recommendation if you like rocky you
are going to like this movie
Fair point.
Are you caught up on Green Lantern yet?
I am not caught up on anything.
I will keep my spoilers to myself then.
Yeah, so I am home alone this week.
My wife is in Pennsylvania with her
parents.
Walter the dog is with her.
So I'm truly like in the house by
myself.
Are there burglars trying to get into your
house?
Do you need to set up an elaborate
system of booby traps to keep them out
of the house?
I have my matchbox cars at the front
door.
Sweet.
I have paint cans hanging from a string.
You got to get one of them,
the little heater thing to put on the
door to just heat it all the way
up to grab it.
And I have my cutout of the rock
on a turntable.
I love the fact that he had a
life-size Michael Jordan cutout and just
happened to be around.
And like,
let me go ahead and put this on
this train set that I'm going to make
up and just...
And so it looks like there's people in
the house.
Like that was...
or you could go part two and just
uh get the tv turned up really really
really loud like i said in part one
two um and watch uh angels with dirty
was it angels with was it dirty souls
i don't know oh man you filthy yeah
uh yeah i know what you're talking about
i don't know what the movie is though
merry christmas you filthy animals it's a
movie they made up for the movie
Like they shot that specifically for the
movie.
But I think it's Angels with Filthy Souls.
I think that's the name of the one
that he was watching.
Beast is not like the wrestler.
That's a much different storyline as well.
And I still get grossed out when I
think about his deli job.
Just saying.
Yeah.
Um, I watched the Vince young doc.
I thought it was good.
Yay.
Sports and the whisper man.
Very good.
I've not seen the whisper, man.
It just came out.
It's um, Oh, what is his name?
He's.
Eighty-three.
We're a three year old, but you know,
the narrow, the narrow,
the narrow and somebody else.
Uh, yeah,
you need to narrow down your eighty-three
year olds with children.
I know that's my fault.
No, I can't do him anymore.
The older he gets,
the more he annoys me for whatever reason.
De Niro?
Yeah,
I like young De Niro or younger De
Niro.
Heat was probably peak De Niro as far
as I'm concerned.
I will say this about Beast.
An echo bike makes an appearance.
A rogue echo bike is in Beast.
they beat it to death with a bat
because that seems like a it's the
training montage if you're using rocky
lingo i love montages just in general
training montage travel montage like any
kind of month i'm a big fan of
montages yeah well and then like in rocky
four
Oh,
that's the best training montage of all
time.
Right.
Argue with a wall, chat.
And the music for that is called the
training montage.
Well, yeah.
Because why would it not be?
Because it is the training montage.
Absolutely, dude.
You got Ivan Drago with all the hooked
up to all the things and like doing
all the, and it's all the, you know,
straight up eighties,
like neon lights everywhere and shit like
that.
And Rocky's in a Siberia out in a
cold somewhere.
Punch it on a log.
It was fantastic.
Echo bike is also in a recent NFL
clip with Micah Parsons.
I thought that was the assault bike.
I just saw that this morning.
Yeah, I didn't watch it yet.
They said Assault Bike, but I mean,
even though we know Assault is an actual
company, I mean,
but it's a generic term for air bike
or whatever at this point.
Best training montage.
Carolyn Prevost,
the infamous Carolyn Prevost,
thinks that Rocky IV is the best Rocky
movie, and she is wrong.
She's wrong about that,
but she is right about the fact that
it's got the best training montage of all
time.
Yes.
Drago also strict presses like four
hundred pounds.
Yes.
Yeah.
If you have not seen the arm and
hammer breakdown of the training montage
from Rocky four.
It's out on YouTube.
It is fifteen minutes of pure gold.
I watched that last year sometime.
I'm glad you brought it up.
I need to watch it again.
It is top notch.
Go find it.
It's not hard to find at all.
You literally just search Arm & Hammer
Training Montage and it will come up.
I promise you.
And he analyzes all of the fitness
movements from the training montage.
It's so good.
And he's the one that first told me
that Drago is strict pressing,
and people are standing three feet in
front of him when he drops it.
Yeah.
And you're standing there like, hmm.
Yeah.
So there's a, there's a meme somewhere,
dude.
And I do not know.
I don't remember.
I had it at some point,
but the magic school bus,
I don't know if you can't have watched
the magic school bus,
but I'm all about reading rainbow,
but okay.
I understand that.
But Mrs. Frizzle is a cartoon.
She drives the magic school bus and
there's a, a,
a segment in it or one of the
episodes or whatnot where like she benches
four plates.
So speaking of that,
I actually have something for that.
Rainbow this bitch.
I will say, yeah.
So Ramirez has got a point.
The kickboxer train montage with
Jean-Claude Van Damme is good too.
Not just the kickboxer one.
kickboxer one's great just because like
when he blood sport blood sport is also
good but the kickboxer one when like oh
boy's got him tied up into four different
ropes and he's just like he finally just
pulls them all back down and the thing
falls over yeah and when he starts kicking
the bamboo like this like this because
he's belgium and they sound french it's
fantastic blood sport is fantastic as
outstanding blood sport
The Bloodsport fight montage,
where they're showing,
instead of watching everybody fight,
they're just showing highlights from all
different matches.
I could watch just that and be like,
yep, I'm moving right along.
Having said that, if Bloodsport's on,
I'm watching it until they hit.
The worst training montage ever is Daniel
LaRusso hitting the wooden dummy in Karate
Kid III.
Yeah, man, Daniel LaRusso.
Yeah, me and Daniel Lewis.
Me and Jameson were looking for something
to watch.
That'd be my eight-year-old, FYI,
on Netflix.
And Karate Kid, the next,
or whatever it is, the brand new one,
where it's Jackie Chan
And then Daniel La Russa.
I can't watch it, dude.
I can't.
So, dude, look, on the preview,
it was enough for me.
I'm like, no.
Because you're going to tell me Jackie
Chan needs to go to,
and I don't know what his name is
in the actual movie, so forgive me, y'all.
But you're going to tell me Jackie Chan
is going to fly to California because he
needs Daniel La Russa's help to train this
kid.
And, oh, you know Kung Fu,
but you don't know Miyagi-san Karate.
Yeah.
No,
his name is Daniel LaRusso in the movie.
It is a karate kid because Jackie Chan
did the, uh, the next version.
We should have been called the Kung Fu
kid, FYI, but whatever.
But somehow I don't think that Jackie Chan
is going to need help from Daniel LaRusso
of all people to come train this kid.
Just throwing it out there.
Probably got in trouble for kicking my
cousin as a kid practicing karate moves.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah.
Everybody wanted to do like the Van Damme,
like maybe he'll hit people and then goes
for like thirty seconds,
like thinking that that was a legitimate
fight move.
It's not.
FYI,
you're not going to want to just stand
there.
My brother and I watched Bloodsport
unsupervised as kids,
and fighting in the living room was peak
childhood.
Absolutely.
I mean, wax on, wax off.
That's definitely been clipped.
Oh, my goodness.
Yep, wax on, wax off.
You heard it here first,
ladies and gentlemen.
Scott Schweitzer.
anyway oh it's gonna get clips then you
gotta worry about that good night oh i
can't even read it now maybe that's why
he was going to daniel larusa he needed
somebody to whack someone and whack off oh
god
Oh, I'm glad.
OK,
so we can we can we can move
right right through this.
Have you seen that clip?
I have.
I just he's like,
you think you could beat Amy Kringle in
a fight?
And she's like, no, no.
He's like,
what about of all the people he could
have picked?
Right.
CrossFit mom, everybody's CrossFit mom.
And she goes, no.
And he goes, what about Justin Madero?
She's like, yeah,
I think I could beat Justin Madero in
a fight.
And I was like, holy shit.
Yeah, I can't wait for that full episode.
Ariel Lowen, nope.
Andy Kringle.
Nope.
Justin Medeiros?
Yeah,
I'd probably beat up Justin Medeiros.
And the clip does go on to say
that Hurst heard to say that Justin
doesn't look like a fighter.
Right.
Which, to be fair, he doesn't.
But that dude wrestled at a pretty high
level for a very long time.
So,
I need to share this before we get
way too past what you said a while
ago,
which was way before my whack-off comment.
And so...
if i don't know if you've seen this
uh woolly memeth did a did a meme
of doppelgangers damn that's a good one
That's a good one.
Uh, James Sprague, Nicolas Cage.
It is way too, way too good.
That's yeah.
I don't know where he found that picture,
like who Nicolas Cage was playing in that
one.
Cause he doesn't have that much hair,
but Holy smokes.
That's good.
I think this is the,
the one with about him, massive talent,
I think is that, Oh,
the unvariable weight of massive,
massive talent.
Yeah.
That's what him and, um,
What's his name?
Pedro Pascal.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Captain America, Rich Froning.
I'm not sure the looks are there,
but I get the sentiment.
Right.
Damn.
I mean,
you could have went John Cena like that
because that would have made a whole
lot... But damn, that's messed up.
Justin and Billy Ray Cyrus.
I always get...
um oh what's his name morgan wallen
probably mostly because they just they
both have mullets but i understand that
one there's your uh magic there she is
there's miss frizzle bench and four plate
y'all so that's why i wanted to show
it here's uh josh bridges and uh
okay uh what's his name leonidas yeah from
three hundred right uh i think he's just
trying to be funny here within cruel yeah
yeah and then tia the goat that's easy
um the resemblance is uncanny i do also
did you see this
LSU skipped over number five in its
countdown to the season opener and just
put four plus.
You can hate us.
All you want.
But we are going to throw it.
Whoever's in charge of their social media
is killing it.
Absolutely killing it.
And you know I'm addicted to pickles,
right?
Oh, absolutely.
Having a bad day?
jeez it seems a bit excessive but i
mean i got you and then the last
thing i wanted to show from this real
quick is uh lauren smith took notes during
the wfp and they are awesome uh no
the the this is a gym activation the
mom of an affiliate owner won the raffle
and said rather than the price she just
wanted a hug from anola kai oh
Guy Mejeres brought his dog for the first
time.
Everybody got facelikes.
That's fine.
In an interesting conversation about hot
dogs,
Laura Horvath estimates she could eat a
maximum of six in one sitting.
Okay.
That is some useful information right
there.
I'm not as much into pocket pickles,
Trent.
You don't want pocket pickles.
That's a bad idea.
Of course.
Yes, Trish, we know.
Trish would be addicted to this.
We know.
Yeah, we know.
um Wyatt Taylor had a fan club with
twenty plus people it was they were so
loud I don't even know who Wyatt Taylor
is but it was a salvation every time
he took the floor but apparently he has
a fan club you swear to god Rich
Froning just took the floor as loud as
the crowd got that's outstanding I love
that love that
Yeah,
Laura's now known as the glizzy queen.
Glizzy queen.
Note to self,
if inviting Laura to a barbecue,
make sure you have enough hot dogs.
Does she eat the hot dog sideways?
Does she think the hot dog is a
sandwich?
I'm not getting into that debate.
No, don't worry, Joseph will.
It's fine.
Anulakai's a menace, but we love him,
so does Jack Farlow.
Keep an eye on that budding bromance.
Aww.
And you see a normal cut.
He photobombed James Sprague by doing a
cannonball.
This is why we can't have nice things.
Is that not the best?
That's amazing, dude.
Look,
that's why you don't want me at your
competition and have me around when stuff
like that's happening because I'm doing
the same thing.
Me and Enola Kai,
we right here when it comes to that
kind of shit.
I will one hundred percent cannonballs in
the water while somebody's trying to do
something.
Amanda Jobs won the ten K for the
women at thirty nine fourteen.
And she did it without wearing a watch
for pacing.
Dude, thirty nine, thirty nine, fourteen.
That's fast.
Oh, yeah.
She beat half the men.
Yeah, more than half.
Emma Lawson was doing social media with a
non-digital camera, an actual film camera.
Wow.
For Jack Farlow.
I didn't even know those things still
existed.
Uh, Bailey rail.
That's, that's not a board.
Um,
Luca Jukic walked past her on day one
and said, don't worry,
you'll interview me tomorrow.
And we actually did.
I like that.
Uh, I like that attitude.
And the best thing you may have missed
from the live stream is this.
tutor and james trying to learn the gi
dance i mean james is close to tutor
has no rhythm dude has no rhythm
whatsoever that dude is white all the way
through good lord look at that
Oh, sub-forty is decent.
Doug Reed, when I was running a lot,
like before I started doing CrossFit,
this was forever ago.
My goal,
one of my goals was to run a
sub-forty-five in K. So, yeah,
I'd say sub-forty is pretty decent.
I know people that run thirty-six.
That's fast, like super fast, thirty-six,
thirty-five.
But to run thirty-nine and then go and
complete the rest of the events at WFP
over the weekend, that's ridiculous.
Boy said Roman was on pace for thirty
seven.
Yeah, that's fast.
If you didn't see the boys interrupted,
James also talks about that.
He got to a point where someone said,
hurry up, you can catch Roman.
And he was thinking,
there's no way I'm catching Roman.
And then he turned the corner into the
tunnel and there was Roman limping.
And then he just said,
I just felt terrible.
Terrible.
Yeah, I imagine so.
Yeah,
Tudor looked like Elaine from Seinfeld.
Yes.
Oh.
I'm not saying it's because Olive's over
here talking about I wouldn't say whatever
James was doing was rhythm.
James was way closer than whatever Tudor
was doing.
Yeah.
Tudor looks like that's the first time
he's ever tried to move his shoulders.
It's all about where the bar is set.
Yeah, absolutely.
That's wild, dude.
Sub-forty is decent, but, of course,
nowhere near elite.
That's why I'd love – I have loved
to see them run a hundred meters to
compare with elite sprinters rather than
NFL players.
Well, Lito,
the idea is that the combo is a
standardized test with all these parts
already put in it, right?
So you can just take that and go,
okay, these guys, they're super athletic,
right?
Dude, we're seeing the robot effects.
Oh.
Can I just say our chat are the
best in the world?
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Their contributions to the humor of this
show.
It's unbeatable.
It's unbeatable.
Now we say stupid shit that allows for
that, but Oh yeah.
Like wax on whack off that will now
probably be stuck with us.
Never going to go anywhere.
Never going to go anywhere.
It's so fantastic.
Anyway,
sitting here trying to actually explain
why they did the combine, and it's like,
oh, yeah, no.
He absolutely was.
Never mind.
I'm going to just stop trying to explain
why they use that,
and we'll just move on from there.
Tessa just wants to keep coaching.
Got to be loose.
Arms so breezy.
Right.
She's not wrong.
She's not wrong.
But I mean, look,
it was their first lesson.
Okay.
Did you know how to snatch your first
time you ever grabbed a barbell?
No, you did not.
No, you did not.
She's just given coaching cues.
So if Tudor's watching,
next time he'll know.
If Tudor's watching, he's probably loose.
Arms are breezy.
Tudor's watching.
He's probably never going to talk to me
again because he's the whitest dude I've
ever seen.
He just started trying to learn how to
dance that day.
He will never take a selfie with Winter
because Robot Olympics is definitely out.
That's fantastic.
Is Tessa the lady who says this is
hip-hop?
This is hip-hop.
I hope so.
That would be awesome information to find
out.
Do you know who Tessa is?
She's Ray Gunn from the Breakdance
Olympics.
Oh, my Lord.
I have seen some awkward looking shit in
my lifetime, but that ray gun lighting,
I don't have the words to describe what
that was.
I don't think most people do.
Good night.
It helps to have Guy's physique.
Oh, is that what it is?
Is that what it is?
I'll tell you what.
if I could have any physique in the
world to put my head on top of,
I would pick geese.
It used to be neomatics.
Now it's geese.
I was about to say, dude, neomatics.
Um,
John Parra,
the dude that won the snatch ladder in
like twenty sixteen.
I just kept walking up the one who
quietly won it while the other race was
going on.
That dude was built like an action figure.
I'm going to tell you right now.
Peak Rich Fronin.
It looked like he could have won a
bodybuilding competition at any given
point in time.
But I understand your neomatics
competition.
I get the neomatics thing.
I really do.
You just hate Guy.
You don't want to give Guy any love.
It's all because he asked for a bicycle
three years ago.
You're the dog with the bone.
That he never got.
No.
If I had to pick out of the
current crop right now,
no disrespect to Guy,
but Quinn Robinson...
It's not even a choice, dude.
Even with his torn pec, Quinn is,
he is absolutely,
that dude is ripped beyond belief.
Holy smokes, it's Ryan.
I think you are just,
you are just a key hater.
Call it what you want, homeboy.
You just will not give that man his
due.
Well,
everybody thought he was going to win the
.
And then Quinn Robinson, again,
stepped up and went ahead and snatched
that out of everybody's hands.
Yep, Quinn is jacked.
This is how CrossFit markets to these
young people make you think you could look
like this.
Then after ten years, you realize,
like I did,
that you'll never look like that.
I got down to eight percent body fat
in twenty twenty three.
I did look like that for a little
while, about three,
four months worth of it's hard to it's
hard to maintain if you're not training at
that level.
But it's a possibility.
It's happened.
Dallin Pepper is close, a close second.
Dallin's ripped and Dallin's huge.
Like, that's a lot of man.
That dude would run through a wall.
He probably walked through the wall.
Hey.
Where else do you get comparisons of men's
physiques in this space?
Nowhere I can think of offhand.
Did you see this too?
The post of the chest x-ray showing the
pit bull?
Yeah.
He got that dog in him.
Got that dog in him.
I love that.
Really,
he's one of my favorites right now, dude.
Just attitude alone.
Like, for him to come out and say,
like, I knew that there was levels,
he said,
but then I got on the floor and
I realized, oh,
there's even levels out here.
Okay, got it.
Ortega was actually kind of embedded with
Quinn at WFP.
Yeah, good.
As someone who has been – so I
was embedded with Hattie Kenyo at the
games last year.
Girl gets sick as a dog,
and now I'm trying to make a documentary
on her,
and I feel like I'm just an inconvenience
during her sick time.
I can't imagine how Ortega felt.
Dude rips his pec,
has to head to the ER,
has to get all the stuff.
How do you –
keep the vibes going for that the whole
weekend.
But Ortega was there, man,
chugging coffee like a madman,
trying to get shit done.
I would imagine.
I could be way off because obviously I
don't know the dude,
but just from the stuff that – his
attitude,
seeing him in various interviews and
whatnot, he seems like Quinn does,
that he's one of these kind of guys.
He just rolls with the punches.
Like, oh, yep, tore my pec.
All right, cool.
Still taking the floor so I can get
– so I can have a chance to
make it to Copenhagen because he put up
a picture of him in slides just taking
the floor.
I'm just going to stand out there and
hand my scorecard to my judge,
and I'm going to be right here if
y'all need me.
Well, and here's the deal with that.
There is no minimum work requirement.
We kind of talked about this yesterday,
right?
You're just trying to stack points.
Yep.
And so many people had withdrawn at that
point that he's going to get like five
points.
Why not go get him?
Go get him.
Or take a say is a hundred percent
his fault.
Yeah.
I do want to say this because in
the dense updates and the narrative has
been around the WFP that so many injuries,
right?
Yes,
we knew there were going to be hamstring
pulls.
Let's be honest.
We knew that, right?
So other than that,
there was the torn pec,
there was a torn Achilles,
and there was cramps.
Which is not an injury.
It's cramps.
Right, right.
Of the women,
all fifty athletes finished the weekend.
Yeah.
Fifty for fifty.
So this narrative that there's so many
injuries.
Which is unheard of, by the way.
Yeah, that's silly.
Isn't quite the narrative that everybody
wants it to be.
No.
Yes,
physically you're looking at people
hobbling because of a hamstring pull.
But that shit happens all the time.
Rogue had as many catastrophic injuries
with Achilles alone two years ago with
Heinrich and Gabby.
The same event.
So...
It's all about your perspective.
And I can say in the minute,
in the moment,
you felt like there was a lot going
on until you kind of stepped back and
looked at the overall leaderboard.
And when fifty of fifty women start and
finish an event,
a three-day brutal workout event,
it's not that bad.
No.
And when there's nothing else going on,
And this is all you have to focus
on because unless you're, you know,
at Xenon or keeping up with their live
leaderboard because there's no stream,
then it's really easy to just kind of
pick it apart and go, well,
Pat tore his ACL and then the thing
fell on him and then Quinn tore his
pec and then these people tweaked
hamstrings.
Yeah, a lot of them tweaked hamstrings.
It's not hard to do,
especially not with the sprinting.
Sounds like people just need to do
Carolyn's plyo program.
As it turns out, support my friend.
know the funny thing is in training
carolyn tweaked her hamstring it happens
it happens ouch and i just whacked off
my elbow jesus that is fantastic
Some women were already injured going in,
i.e.
Ella Wilkinson,
and still competed for points.
Same could be said about the men,
but in their case, they were more unlucky.
Yeah.
You know what it comes down to, Scott?
It's sports.
Not enough thirdsy consumption on the male
side.
Great point, Joseph Ramirez.
So if you don't want to suffer an
Achilles tendon tear or a torn pec or
a pulled hamstring and hell,
probably most likely not get another
cramp, get a good night's sleep,
get some rest,
get some recovery with the best tool in
the business, Thirdsy.com backslash Jazzy.
Use promo code Jazzy at checkout and you
get fifteen percent off your order.
Easy day, folks.
Look,
Meredith says she tweaked her hamstring
and walked across her living room.
That sounds like me.
Climbed the stairs.
Damn.
Yeah.
I did air squats at my desk a
couple weeks ago,
and I thought somebody hit me in the
back with a two-by-four.
I ended up going to get treatment behind
it.
So, like, shit happens.
Meredith was playing pickleball.
Son of a bitch!
That is so good.
I don't know what Olive's got going on
here.
Yeah,
we just hit it at the same time.
Whacked from the beginning of the show to
the end.
It's amazing.
What can't this supplement do?
And it can be yours for the low,
low price of just eighty five percent of
retail.
Yeah,
whatever that it turns out to be in
your area.
Sorry.
You already put the disclaimer out.
It's probably not going to keep you from
pectin.
Probably.
Probably.
And it's probably not good with Achilles
tendons.
No.
But it is pretty damn good with cramps.
I was about to say, the cramp thing,
that's accurate.
That's absolutely accurate.
Yes, Ortega.
I most certainly am.
I most certainly am.
Started today, as a matter of fact.
I'm gonna go ahead and take a second
and plug my people while we have an
opportunity here imam co is doing a
calorie challenge for the entire month of
What are we in September?
Um, you can join up for,
I think it's for free.
I'm pretty sure that tags Brandon.
Exactly.
Um, go look it up.
It's on our, it's on his Instagram.
It's all over his Instagram email
companies, Instagram.
You can accumulate calories over the
course of the entire month.
Um,
log it into the app and then every
hundred calories gets you another entry
into the drawing.
And at the end of the thing,
whoever ends up winning is going to be
able to choose an erg of their choice.
So do I count the calories from breakfast,
lunch, and dinner?
Not that kind of calorie challenge.
Because I was like all in, dude.
Yeah.
Not that kind of calorie challenge.
So any calories accumulated on eco bike or
row erg, ski erg,
you can run and log your calories that
way.
Every mile is worth one hundred and twenty
five.
You can bike.
I don't remember with it like actually
like ride your bike.
Those miles are not the same as running
miles, but dude, it's fantastic.
They like giving stuff away and they are
going to give you away at the end
of the month.
Somebody is going to win a C two
erg of their choice,
whether that's a skier,
a biker or a row or maybe a
strength erg.
And if you're really feeling froggy,
I guess.
last thing before we go is I just
got a delivery upstairs and it is my
brand new drum set for those of you
who do not know Scott texted me one
day last week and said I think I'm
going to get a drum set and I
was like that is the most specific midlife
crisis I've ever heard of in my entire
life but you do you my brother so
oh wow so it's upstairs now i get
to assemble it and uh well you can
i mean i feel like all the lego
uh things that you put together you can
probably put together a drum set did you
touch my drum set that is oh my
gosh carolyn quoting step brothers
It's fantastic.
She got it before I did, too.
That's outstanding.
Did you touch my drum set?
I didn't touch your drum set.
Slap the bass, man.
Slap the bass, man.
Hey, it could be worse, y'all.
A drum set is not nearly as expensive
as a convertible.
So there's that.
So I currently have an electric guitar.
Two of them.
I know how to play.
I love music.
I love to be in it as we
talked about her singing last week and
doing it loud.
If you didn't see that real,
Scott's about to rock out and whack off.
So anyway, why are you so sweaty?
I was watching cops.
Cops didn't come on until four thirty.
So, yeah,
I I want to learn how to play
drums and I do think it's it is
kind of going to take over my Lego
addiction because now I just pay one price
and I don't have to get go to
the plastic crack dealer anymore.
And you can just whack away.
Good night.
You can just whack away on the drums
like it's good stress relief.
In the morning,
I can whack in the afternoon and I
can whack in the evening.
Whenever you honestly need to.
Let me ask you this.
I'm going to ask you something.
Does your wife own noise canceling earbuds
or headphones?
So these are electric drums.
Oh, yeah.
And I can actually plug headphones in and
then you can't hear them.
all right so all she's gonna hear is
yep just on beating on the pads all
right yep yep but i'm gonna set it
up right there so before the show get
a little whack in after the show get
a little whack in going down the basement
to give myself a whack i'll be back
later
You're singing like a combination of
Fergie and Jesus.
And Jesus.
That was my favorite game at the fair
and at the amusement park when I was
a kid.
I loved whack-a-mole.
That's what we've been talking about this
whole show, right?
Whack-a-mole?
Whack-a-mole, yeah, absolutely.
A hundred percent.
FYI, if you know what whack-a-mole is,
you're probably in the right demographic
for this show because we are generally a
master's athlete show.
I doubt that exists anymore.
Can you imagine the guy that invented
whack-a-mole?
Oh, yeah.
What can we do?
Hey, are those prairie dogs out there?
Yeah.
You know what I like to do?
Let me hit one of these mallets.
Yeah,
but what if you hit one and another
one just popped up?
Dude, I have an idea.
I have an idea.
What if for every one you hit up,
you hit in the head,
another one popped up?
And sometimes two will pop up.
What if you're not quick enough and you
miss?
Oh, I don't even know.
What if we assign points for each head
that you whack?
That's bad.
so much whacking going on wow all right
guys i gotta get back to work and
i my belly hurts too bad right now
plus i gotta go pull a drum set
off my porch i would definitely do that
i definitely do that an electric jump set
so gotta get everything set you gotta
figure out how you gonna how you want
it like where all the various things are
gonna be i like it
I'm thinking about videoing every once in
a while to show my progress.
Please do.
How bad I am.
Please do.
Ladies and gentlemen, Scott Switzer.
All right.
With that, everybody, you know what?
I'm going to get my drum set and
you know what I'm going to do?
I wouldn't wait to get to the editing
room to jazz me up.
I'm already jazzy.
Lunch with the Clydesdale Cowboy in the
saddle.
Lunch with the Clydesdale Cowboy in the
saddle.
Talking to reps,
