I was born to kill it.
I was meant to win.
I am down and willing,
so I will find a way.
It took a minute,
now it didn't happen right away.
When it get hot in the kitchen,
you decide to stay.
That's how it win us, man.
What is going on, everybody?
Welcome to the Clydesdale Media Podcast,
presenting the athletes of
the semifinals.
Today,
we are so privileged to have with us
Max Krieg.
Max, what's going on, man?
Not much.
Thank you for having me on the show.
Yeah, excited to have you on.
It's funny, last year,
my co-host for my Thursday night show,
Jamie Latimer,
had you pegged as her dark
horse to make the games
last year out of semifinals.
Yes.
Wow.
And so because of that,
we watched you very closely
last year at semis.
And she actually interviewed
you after one of the events.
I don't know if you remember that.
I do.
I was,
I was pretty smoked and I probably
didn't make much sense of the interview,
but I remember it.
Yeah.
I,
if I remember you still had your ruck on
from the ruck muscle up workout, right?
Yup.
Yeah.
What I find fascinating with you,
and this has nothing to do with CrossFit,
is you look completely
different with the mustache
than without the mustache.
Thank you.
Yeah,
this is only two weeks strong right now.
I'm calling it my semifinal stache.
I had one last year.
I'll grow it out every once
in a while just for fun.
I'm in the military,
so we can't really grow out
much facial hair except for a mustache,
so it's fun to grow it out
every once in a while.
I grew it out last year.
It exceeded my expectations at semifinals,
so I figured I'd grow it
out again this year and see what happens.
Jake Chapman says,
Max looks like a World War
II Army captain called John Stanley.
Yeah.
Thanks, Jake.
We also have a guy in the chat.
I don't know if you know him,
Corey Leonard.
Yeah, I just love that guy.
And we'll probably see him
this weekend at Franco's.
Yep.
I will be there.
So Corey's been a longtime listener.
He was actually my roommate
at the Masters Fitness
Collective when I got to
kind of see his first ever
big competition.
And we couldn't be more
stoked that he's actually
going to get to compete in
semifinals in the Masters
Division this weekend.
Yeah, that's awesome.
I'm excited to see him throw down.
Yeah.
What a funny guy.
So I don't know if you've heard of...
The Southland competitors
camp that Brandon Luckett puts on,
I met and, uh,
somehow me and him always
end up sitting next to each
other during the seminars.
And we're just, we're just bust.
Like we're just having a
good time the whole time,
just messed around and he's
a fun guy to be around.
So that's truly how Corey
and I kind of got to know
each other's through the
Southland Southland group.
And the way I know the
Southland group is I live
three miles from Rudy burger.
Okay.
And so I covered him last
season through the open and semifinals,
did little mini documentaries of that.
And he talked about the
group down at Southland and
how him and Lynette go down
there and hang out with
Brandon and the crew and
how much they love it.
And that's how I got introduced to Corey.
And then we actually met in
person for the first time
at Masters Fitness Collective.
okay awesome well yeah small
world and uh funny that you
say that um the burgers are
awesome I i met them at
competitors camp I think
three three competitors
camps ago I saw him at
water palooza briefly and
then um some of the most
recent competitors camp and
when I was doing
quarterfinals this year um
A couple people recommended
that I get a coach,
and I haven't had a coach up until,
I mean, very recently.
And so I'm a very analytical person,
and I appreciate people who
are very analytical at
sport and kind of a student of the sport.
And so when I was thinking
about getting a coach,
the first person I thought
of was Lynette.
And I'm sure, like, as you've, like,
interviewed and talked to
Rudy and kind of, like,
um seeing their their
process their their coach
athlete relationship
obviously they're married
um but like the way that
Lynette approaches the
coaching process and the
way she analyzes everything
that Rudy does um she was
the first person that that
came in my mind so very
recently I reached out to
her I think like a week
week and a half ago
And so she's actually going
to be coming out to
semifinals with me to be my coach.
I'm super excited to work with her.
And so far,
we've just been talking back and forth,
texting, and she's awesome.
Wow.
That's awesome.
She is.
She's one of the most
analytical people I've ever met.
She always says when I talk to her,
you know how we're data driven.
Like I think she prefaces
every statement with that.
And I'm actually going to be
over there with them this weekend.
While you're hanging out with Corey,
I'll be hanging out with them.
just I look when we because
we do like new shows I need
to see the workouts to be
able to talk about them and
who better to watch do the
work the age group workouts
than two-time champ rudy
burger could agree more
yeah so I'm gonna hang out
with them this weekend and
that's super cool um so
yeah she's she's the best
and she leaves no stone
unturned for sure yeah
Um, so,
and didn't she program the last
competitors camp?
Um,
I don't know if it was her or Brandon
or a mix between the two.
Yeah.
So just, uh, so follow up stuff.
Corey said,
it's great when you guys hang
out cause we don't pay
attention to shit and that
gets to the shit that gets said,
but we have fun.
Yeah.
Sounds like Corey.
yeah um and he also echoes
lynette is the best cannot
express how awesome she is
there was a group that came
up to mfc with corey and
lynette took them all under
her wing and made sure they
were all fed that they were
all eating right that they
were all getting taken care
of even though they didn't
have any coaches with them
that weekend um that's just who she is so
How did you find that
competitor's camp down there?
How did you get pulled in?
And why is it such a good thing for you?
So I got pulled in from one
of my buddies that I work
out at Panama City CrossFit with,
Tyler Hill.
Um, and he's,
he's a photographer in the
CrossFit space.
Um, he's very tapped in, um,
to everything that's going on.
Um, as you can tell from my Instagram, I'm,
I'm pretty bad at social media.
And, uh, so I often rely on others to,
to kind of like keep me up
to speed with what's going on.
Um, he knew that I was someone who, um,
had high aspirations for CrossFit.
And he kind of saw how,
like I was analytical about
things and I was pretty
deliberate with the process.
When he saw this competitor's camp pop up,
he brought it up to me.
He said like, hey,
this is something I think
you'd really like.
So me,
him and his wife went to the first
competitor's camp or our
first competitor's camp.
I think it was the second
one that they hosted.
And
um met met brandon met the
whole team there met met
roy the owner of the of
crossfit francos and um met
a lot of great athletes um
like scott tella was there
um who else was there uh
bill lahey was there alexis
johnson was one of the
coaches helping out and so
this was really
the,
my first exposure to high level
CrossFit athletes and being
able to like pick their brain, um,
for an extended period of time, um,
and really like tap into
some of that knowledge.
And, um, yeah, I, I try to take it, um,
as much advantage as I could.
And so I would say to answer
your second question, like how it, like,
what did that competitors
can't mean to me?
Um, it, I mean,
I wouldn't be where I am
right now without the competitors camp.
And I would say mostly like
without Brandon Luckett.
I'm someone who does better
if I have people to the
left and the right of me pushing me.
And I knew that.
with the upcoming quarterfinals.
So this was in quarterfinals
in 2023 last year.
I asked for that reason,
I asked Brandon if I could
do the quarterfinals with him.
He said, absolutely,
you can stay in my house.
And this is like, I had met him for,
I had known him for like three hours.
He's like, yeah,
I'd do the quarterfinals with me,
stay at my house, which was awesome.
And so
Yeah,
I just got to got to know Brandon
better and the community
around that competitors camp.
And since then,
like it's just been a
really good family and just
group of people with a lot
of knowledge in the space
that I've been able to tap
into and learn from.
so the more I'm learning
about this group and I've
met a lot of them,
it's almost like CrossFit for nerds.
Like, I think I'd fit right in.
Like,
like Alexis Johnson is like
supercomputer math whiz, right?
Brandon is super analytical.
The burgers, we've talked about them.
Um, even Scott Tetlow is very,
like he is so regimented
because he has so little time.
His efficiency is like through the roof.
Um,
Is it a bunch of like-minded
people like that?
Yeah, absolutely.
Then how the hell does Corey fit in?
No, I'm just kidding.
I don't know who gave him an
invite to that camp.
Well, that's super cool.
And people like Brandon
don't come around every day
to have just dudes that are that good.
How cool is it to see how
well he's doing this season?
I thought he was supposed to be retired.
I think he's retired like
three or four times now.
But then he just realizes
how much he loves it.
I mean,
he's more of a competitor than
anyone I know.
So he just – he loves getting after it.
And I think every time he
thinks he's at the end of
the road and he wants to retire,
then he just is reminded
like how much he likes
competing and then –
He's back in it.
And so it's really cool to
see him at the top of
leaderboard for both the
open and the quarterfinals.
And these these semifinals
workouts are get the workouts.
This whole CrossFit season
so far have been like
pretty basic and gritty.
And that's where Brandon thrives.
And I don't think it's any
different with the
semifinals workouts for the most part.
And so, I mean,
I think he's going to
thrive at semifinals as well.
Yeah.
With this year's semifinals,
it's so old school CrossFit.
Like there's no pulling
weights on a napkin.
There's no, um, weird rock muscle ups.
There's, there's no like new movements.
It is just good old fashioned triplets,
couplets and get after it.
Go dark.
Yep.
Do you think that plays to your favor?
I do for the most part.
Um,
It's I think I do.
I think I do best in the workouts that, um,
where like you really have
to hurt for the most part.
Um, like historically I've done good with,
uh, just like basic movements,
especially like on machines.
Um,
maybe being a bigger athlete helps as
well.
Uh,
So yeah,
I think that part of my game will
be beneficial with like the
workouts that we see at semifinals.
I will also say that I enjoy
like brand new things that
come out because I think I,
like relative to the field,
I adapt pretty well to like
brand new things that come out.
So like in quarterfinals,
I liked it when they did the
crossovers for the first time.
I liked the fact that there
was a rock for the muscle ups.
So yeah, I guess it's kind of,
that's kind of a gray answer.
I do.
And I don't,
this is going to be a weird question.
Do you think you'd be a
better games athlete than a
semifinal athlete?
Maybe I think, I mean, like,
Looking at my background,
I played field sports growing up.
I don't have any fitness in my background.
I wasn't a gymnast.
I wasn't an Olympic lifter.
So I think those types of things,
if people have a background
with fitness-related things,
they do better.
um, in the gym.
And then I would say with my background,
I do better when we like
start to get outside of the gym.
Um, especially like the past few years,
like if they have the
amount of running that they
have at the games, like I, I like to run.
Um, so like that, I like to swim.
Like if they were to do some,
some like stuff like, uh,
like paddle boarding or kayaking,
I think I would do pretty well at that.
Um, so I think so.
And I think the
underestimated part of the
games are it's a long weekend.
It's a longer weekend than
any other competition
you're going to go to.
And you're going to have ups
and downs throughout that weekend.
And if you've played team sports,
that's generally something
you've had to endure at
some point in your life.
Yeah,
definitely had my fair shares of ups
and downs.
Yeah.
And so I just, I think people,
I don't know,
I've listened to a lot of
Rich Froning in the past 24 hours, and,
like, he's a big team sports guy,
and it seems like that
helped him a tremendous
amount when he was competing.
Yeah.
I think Corey just wants to
take over the interview,
but he said the Taylor
Swift shirts he works out
in also help him a bunch.
Yeah, they give me special powers.
you a swifty absolutely not
and not a recent swifty I
was old school um yeah
sophomore year of high
school is when I really got
to taylor swift we'd always
listen to her during art
class and then uh that's
when my my love for taylor
grew I was part of the t
swift appreciation society
in high school i
No, no big deal.
And then when I met my wife, Meg, she like,
I think I'm a pretty big Swifty,
but she's much more than I am.
She's always at the top of
the Spotify charts,
like 0.5% of the listeners every year.
And so I think that's
something that like we connected with.
And then,
so we just listened to Taylor
Swift all the time.
Are you a Chiefs fan now?
um I'm a I appreciate
greatness so out nothing to
do with t swift but I like
I like greatness and I i
really appreciate people
that can repeatedly win at
a high level um more so
than like an underdog um so
for that reason I like the chiefs
they might have NFL might
have overdid the whole like
media with T Swift and
Travis so yeah I must be
opposite of you because I'm
a Chicago Bears fan and I
haven't seen greatness in
30 years stay strong I'm
hoping this could be the
year I've said that in
other years but it is
actually looking good for a change
Um, so back to you, um,
I don't even know where we were.
So you're active military.
You were part of the army
warrior fitness group.
Are you still a part of that?
What does that mean?
It it's become so popular and I mean,
I've seen them at, um,
I live here in Columbus, Ohio.
I've seen them at the Army
or the Arnold Fitness Expo
come do competitions here.
What's it like to travel
just doing fitness?
It's pretty cool.
So...
The team has two components to it.
They have in-person athletes.
So those are athletes
stationed at Fort Knox that
fall under recruiting command.
And then they have at-large athletes.
I'm currently an at-large athlete.
With that,
you continue to do whatever job
you have in the military.
Um, but you can go on, uh,
on trips that the military
will fund that the army will fund, um,
to support the warrior fitness team.
Um,
so I'm not like in an in-person athlete
yet.
That'll be my next assignment, um,
in August.
Um, but yeah, it's,
it's a really cool
experience to be a part of
the warrior fitness team.
uh like I said we fall under
recruiting command and
really like the whole the
whole point of it um is to
show people that are
interested in joining the military that
it's a lot more than just
suiting up and going on the
front lines and shooting.
The people in the military
are normal people just like me and you.
They have hobbies just like me and you.
And there's a lot of
opportunities other than
that small tunnel that
vision that people get when
they think this is the only
thing in the Army.
What is your current occupation?
I'm a diver.
Nice.
And are you in the panhandle?
Yeah,
right now I'm stationed at NSA Panama
City at the Navy dive school here.
Okay.
So are you Army or Navy?
I'm Army.
Okay.
But stationed at a Navy base.
Yeah.
So pretty much every
military diver goes through the,
it's called NDSTC,
Naval Diving and Salvage Training Center.
here in Panama City.
The only exceptions to that
are Navy SEALs who go
through their training in San Diego,
and then Army Combat Divers
that go through a separate
school in Key West.
But everyone else,
so that includes Army Engineer Divers,
which is what I do, Navy Divers,
Navy EOD Divers, Marine Combatant Divers.
uh,
air force combat divers and coast guard
divers.
They all come through NDSTC.
And so it's a really cool
melting pot of a bunch of
different branches,
a bunch of different types of jobs.
Um, because at the end of the day,
military diving is military diving.
Um,
so mostly everyone goes through the
same basic curriculum to
start out and then we'll
branch off and do our, um, specific, uh,
specialties.
Are you still in training or
have you actually done it
as part of your job already?
I've done it.
So,
so I went through dive school back in
2018.
Um, and then I've, I've been a diver since,
um, and right now I'm back here, um,
as an instructor.
That's really cool.
I was a collegiate swimmer,
and I always wanted to do
some diving and just never
was in a location where it made sense.
I've taken some classes and
done it in a pool,
but never in the ocean.
You got to go.
That's awesome.
My cousin, who's like a brother to me,
is in the Navy stationed in Pensacola.
Okay.
So what, an hour from you guys?
Yeah, two hours or so, two and a half.
But he ended up getting sick
on a dive and had to stop.
Oh, really?
Like he got the bends,
decompression sickness?
Yeah,
and he ended up working for the Naval
Hospital in Pensacola.
Okay.
So, yeah.
So we get into this season.
You're coming off last year where, again,
I think I told you maybe
before we got online that my co-host,
Jamie,
picked you as a dark horse to come
out of the West.
And so we were watching you very closely.
Yeah.
And you were close to getting that shot.
There wasn't a huge point
difference away from you qualifying.
What have you changed in the
offseason to give you that
better shot at making the games?
I analyzed my performances
throughout the year and
kind of saw the things that
I – like major weaknesses –
And these are things that
that I kind of already knew,
but just like competing on
a big stage like semifinals
and then and then seeing
where you where you fall
compared to some of the big
boys out there kind of just
like reemphasis
reemphasizes the things you
need to work on.
um yeah so so I did that I
reached out to several
people that again I thought
do a very good job of being
students of the game that
was brent fukowski patrick
velner and then josh who's
one of the coaches at hwpo
um I can't remember his last
name right now um and and
just like show them like my
performances and and these
these are my strengths and
weaknesses what I think I
need to work on and then
just and brandon luckett um
obviously reach out to him
uh just kind of get some
insight on um some of the
the strategies that they've
used to tackle their
weaknesses and and see what
their recommendations were um
and specifically if you look
at my performances at
semi-finals the snatch
event was my worst event
and then followed by the uh
the event that had overhead
squats rowing um pirouettes
um handstand push-ups rope
climbs um so overhead
endurance has always been
something that I've struggled with
And so I tackled that by
taking a break from CrossFit.
I did Olympic lifting pretty
much like I didn't touch a
Metcon from the end of
semifinals until December.
I did a few Olympic lifting cycles.
I reached out to a local
weightlifting coach here, Aaron Paley.
Shout out to him.
He's awesome.
And I, I worked with him, um, and then,
so I would do that in the
morning and in the afternoon,
I would do different like
gymnastics progressions on
things that I need to work on.
So, like I said,
overhead endurance is
something that I've
struggled with in the past.
Um,
so anything from like handstand walking
to handstand pushups, um,
ring muscle ups or
something I've struggled in the past.
So I did a lot of work with those, um,
and try to like break that
down and strengthen
different aspects of that movement.
Um,
Something that Brent
Fikowski brought up is that
my mobility is not the best.
So if you think about it,
like if I'm doing a handstand walk,
because I'm not completely stacked,
my movement is a lot less
efficient than someone like
Danielle Brandon,
who's like perfectly stacked.
And so I worked a lot on
overhead mobility this off season.
Um, and just like mobility all around.
Like if you look at my snatch,
like my ability to get down into the hole,
isn't, isn't as good as a lot of athletes,
which means that I have to
pull the bar an extra couple inches.
Um,
so just like the little things like that.
Um,
so really try to hammer those
weaknesses and then come December.
Um,
I started incorporating more CrossFit
style training and Metcons, um,
hop back on to, I followed, um,
I followed my hand programming.
Um, so followed back on, uh,
onto Mayhem programming and
started doing that in
preparation for the season.
And then the other thing was
just my lack of experience
with CrossFit competitions.
So something that I think Brent,
I think all of them, so Brent,
Pat and Josh,
and Brandon said that I
needed to do was gain more
experience because the,
like part of my performance
at semifinals this past year, like I,
went down towards the end of
the weekend um because I
think I was just like like
I'm not that nervous of a
person typically like I
don't get that anxious
about things but I think my
central nervous system was
just so taxed by the end of
the weekend because I was
just nervous about
everything um which like
I'm sure there's a lot of
factors that go into it but
a lot of that has to do
with lack of experience um
and so one of the things
that they hammered
was that I need more
experience with CrossFit
competitions and competing
at a high level with good athletes.
Sorry.
So this last off season,
I did Crash Crucible.
I did Waterpalooza.
Um,
and those were kind of like my two
competitions that I did.
And I knew like a crack crash crucible.
Um, like I said,
I wasn't really doing CrossFit at all.
I was pretty much like Olympic lifting.
Um, and then I, I tried each of the,
the events, um,
once before I went to crash crucible,
but like I was not in good
CrossFit CrossFit shape at
all and definitely felt it.
Um, and even at water Palooza, um,
Like I was getting back into training,
but still like not feeling
like I was in the best CrossFit shape,
but like,
I kind of had to swallow my
pride a little bit, um,
and know that that was
going to be a reality that
my performance wouldn't be the best,
but I could still get, um,
that experience of competing with people.
Um, yeah,
so that was kind of my approach
to the off season.
So Jay Birch asks, was it Josh Godness?
Probably.
Okay.
A wad zombie with a joke.
If you want to learn how to dive,
watch soccer.
All right.
You just play soccer.
So when you look at the
events that have come out already...
Does the snatch ladder make
you nervous or does the
snatch ladder make you
excited because you get to
show what you've learned in
the offseason?
Both.
I mean, being realistic,
that will not be my best
event at semifinals.
Um, so like, I don't like that.
Like,
I'd rather have a bunch of home run
events.
Um, but to your point, like,
I am excited to,
to see like really where
I'm at and like the hard
work that I put into the off season.
Um, see, see how much it paid off.
Cause like you can hit
certain numbers in training.
Um, and like.
get a good gauge of where you're at,
but it's not really until
like you put yourself to
the test in a real
competition until you
really see like where
you're at and where that
hard work has landed you.
Is a ladder like that better
for you or would you rather
just line up and do a one rep?
It's definitely better for me.
And I think, I think the fact that
It's on the last day is also
better for me because I
think that everybody's
going to be sore and tired.
So it, and I think I recover pretty well.
So I have that going for me.
And then the fact that it's the last day,
I think that levels the
playing field a little bit
as opposed to if it was day
one and everyone was fresh
and everyone's going for a
one round max snatch
probably wouldn't bode as well for me.
yeah I i was at the west
coast classic in 21 when
that first came out and or
when it the second time
they did it and it was like
event one or two and people
were flying like flying on
that snatch ladder it's
going to be interesting to
see this year how it's
going to be on day three
yeah especially when you're
running two and a half
miles doing 50 clay and jerks
50 front squats at 225, um,
people are going to,
the legs are going to be sore.
Yeah.
And, and even if fresh, it,
so many races came out of that event,
like people racing over that last bar to,
to beat each other out.
I love the event as a spectator.
It's so fun to watch.
Um, yeah.
So I'm, I'm anxious for it.
Yeah.
is there,
is there any home run workout
that you can't wait to get ahold of?
Um, I, like I like,
I usually do pretty good in
running events.
So I think the first one
will be pretty good for me.
Um,
I like legless rope climbs and machines.
So the echo bike, uh,
legless rope climb box jump over, um,
workout will be pretty good for me.
Um,
I'm excited to see how the
rowing handstand walk,
like what that event
actually consists of.
I know a lot of people are
speculating that there's
going to be some obstacles as part of it.
So, depending on how that looks,
I think the ratio of rowing
to handstand walk isn't
is like pretty good on the rowing side,
which helps me out as
opposed to if it was just
like a handstand walk gymnastics workout.
So that could potentially be
a good event for me as well.
You're going to be outside this year.
Does that make it better or worse for you?
I'm never opposed to getting
some vitamin D.
uh I'd have to look I
haven't even looked at the
weather in carson right now
um I would assume this time
this time of year it's not
that bad so yeah I i
assuming always gets me in trouble yeah
Yeah, I don't know.
I haven't looked myself.
Wad Zombie actually lives there.
So if he wants to give us a
forecast for now in the next three weeks,
that'd be cool.
Yeah.
So what is a realistic goal
for this season?
The goal is to make the games.
And I think...
I think that that's realistic.
My,
my goal last year was just to make
semi-finals and I,
I definitely exceeded my
expectations by coming in fifth 15th.
Um, so looking at last year's performance,
seeing that I was six spots
out from qualifying, I, I think it's,
I think it's a realistic goal and, uh,
yeah, we'll, we'll see how it goes.
Corey just checked currently 67 and sunny.
So not bad.
And, and you got the dry heat.
So it's not too humid.
And I'm originally from California.
So maybe, maybe like some,
somewhere in the back of me
and my body is used to
being outside of California.
Well, he says it's beautiful today.
Sunny 75 to 80 degrees
should be the same at the
end of the month.
Last year was cloudy though.
Excellent.
So is that why you compete in the West?
Because you're from California?
No, just because I...
I really wanted to do the
season at Franco's so I can
be with guys like Brandon
Luckett and people who
compete at such a high level.
And like I said,
I do better when I train
and like compete with
people who are better than me.
So that's why I feel at
Franco's and why I work out
there and train there so much.
Okay.
Yeah.
I wish they would just, I don't know.
I wish they'd come up with a
way to just split the
country in half and each
side get the same number of
invites and you just split
them up so it's even.
Because it's hard to figure
out who's where until I see
the leaderboard.
And they'll change it.
They'll change it again next year.
Yeah, I'm sure they will.
Nothing ever stays the same in CrossFit.
Yeah.
So how long have you been doing this?
Like, when did you start CrossFit?
I started in 2018 when I was
coming through dive school here.
I did it for half a year,
then tore my meniscus
snatching because I didn't
have the mobility or the
technique to do it.
And I was just doing a lot
more weight than I had any
business doing.
That was a pretty bad injury.
It put me out for probably a
year and a half to two
years where I was still
doing some CrossFit-type stuff,
but there was a lot I couldn't do.
I did the Open in 2018,
and then I didn't do a
season again until...
21 um did the the opening
quarterfinals 21 22 and
then last year um was the
first time I uh qualified
for semis so a few years so
you haven't been like full
on crossfitting for very
long at all really yeah
Well, that's awesome.
Um, you've, you've come pretty far,
pretty fast and you're
surrounded by a good group of people.
Um, this has been a lot of fun, Max.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Really appreciate it.
Yeah.
Thank you for coming on.
Thank you to everybody in
the chat for being here.
Um, good luck at semis and, uh, we'll,
we'll be watching them rooting, man.
Sounds good.
Thanks so much.
And, uh, I love,
I should say that I love
that the podcast is
presented by thick boy and,
I met him at beach ballers
last year and I love his shirts.
So shout out to thick boy.
He's got some funny shirts
and I got one myself,
but it's a little inappropriate.
So I won't, I won't tell you what it is.
Yeah, he has some good, fun shirts.
And he sponsors this podcast.
He just started.
This is our first month with him.
And go to thickboy.fit.
You can pick out your own
inappropriate T-shirt and
get that ordered and sent
right to your house.
Awesome.
Thanks a bunch, Max.
And we'll see everybody next
time on Clydesdale Media
Podcast featuring the
athletes of the semifinals.
Bye, guys.
