What is Clydesdale Media Podcast?

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.

We weren't supposed to be here today,

but we are.

So let's get at it.

I love the chase and the hunt.

And I set the pace when I'm running.

I always take what I want.

And I always give it one hundred.

Don't need a bank.

No, I'm funded.

Play the game like it's nothing.

I'm always thankful for something.

Don't take for granted.

Stay humble.

Now wake up.

It's time to look at the enemy.

Look in the mirror.

If he is no friend to me,

it's not working out.

Maybe it's the chemistry.

It's time to break up.

So I can make a better me.

Yeah, we're done.

It's lunchtime.

What is going on, everybody?

It's lunchtime with the Clydesdale.

We are back for another week.

I was supposed to be having a biopsy

today on my lung,

but because of the fifteen inches of snow

that got called off and now we get

to hang out with you guys today at

lunch and I got to go into work

today.

Uh,

what's awesome is something that I never

thought would happen is the governor

actually said, Hey,

everybody work from home.

I know I get to work from home

every day,

but a lot of my coworkers do not.

And so the fact that he allowed as

many people as possible to work from home

and not have to drive in this.

mess that's out there right now was really

cool.

So we're all kind of working from home

today and trying to get stuff done.

The biopsy for me is rescheduled most

likely two weeks from today.

I still have the sinus surgery this week

on Thursday.

And then I will probably recover over the

weekend.

And then I get all of the bandages

kind of pulled out on Monday.

And then hopefully we can be back Monday

doing shows again.

So, probably no show Thursday, Friday,

and Monday, the next few days.

And then the Sunday night show,

trying to figure out something there.

Because the next two Sundays,

I'll still have my nose pacted for this

Sunday.

And then the Super Bowl is the next

Sunday.

So,

we're trying to figure out how to schedule

this.

Maybe do one show in between the two

Sundays.

I don't know.

We're trying to figure that out.

Thank goodness.

We're not like the open hasn't started

yet.

And we, we have some flexibility there.

So of course there's no frozen biopsy for

Scott.

Yeah.

I'll be honest.

Like I'm,

I just was worried about my wife dealing

with the traffic and the snow and all

that kind of stuff because I won't be

allowed to drive after the biopsy.

And the place we go is like an

hour and fifteen minutes away to have this

done.

And so I was really worried for her

having to drive on all this stuff.

So it's kind of good that we got

postponed and hopefully better weather in

two weeks to make this happen.

But I need to have this stuff diagnosed

so that we can start treatment and get

back at it.

I mean,

I signed up for the open and I

want to be able to do it as

much as possible.

So that should be, that's my goal.

That's my goal.

Get through all that stuff and at least

be able to do the open.

So what's going on with you guys, man?

I know a lot of the country got

weather that they did not expect.

I hope everybody is digging out from that.

Yeah.

I want to thank my sponsor, Thirdsy.

Make sure you go to thirdsy.com backslash

jazzy.

If you want the best recovery tool and

sleep aid in the business, no melatonin,

good grass-fed collagen helps you recover,

helps you sleep.

uh yeah good stuff code jazzy at checkout

um so super super stoked about that go

use them uh use that code and get

fifteen percent off your order uh keeping

it real hopefully mike mccarthy is digging

out and unsuccessful all right um

I want to talk about this because I've

been talking to Grant through DMs.

Let's just talk about it right here now.

I think Steeler fans are spoiled.

Steeler fans don't realize when they have

a good thing.

Is Mike McCarthy the flashy big hire that

the Steelers wanted?

No.

But is he consistent?

Does he win?

Yes.

Is he a good offensive mind?

Yes.

Is that something the Steelers have ever

had?

No.

He's the coach that beat them in the

last Super Bowl,

and yet you're saying that he's not good

enough when he beat you the last time

you were in the Super Bowl.

So...

I find it weird because he took a

young Dak Prescott and he developed him.

He took a young Aaron Rodgers and

developed him.

Those are two really good quarterbacks.

And the Steelers have not had a

quarterback since Ben Roethlisberger

retired.

So you spoiled Steeler fans.

Suck it up.

This guy's actually pretty good.

And he's probably the right hire for right

now.

The days of hiring coaches for twenty

years were the past.

They're not now.

you just have to be patient and sealer

fans are not, they want to win now,

but you have not won a super bowl

in a very, very long time.

And so you got to do it.

You got to do it.

Work from home.

Kate Curry or is WF work from home

today as well.

Gyms were closed.

So zone two biking and rowing at home

this morning.

Yeah,

I think most of the gyms were closed

here.

I think we might have still been under

a level three snow emergency this morning,

which you get arrested if you're on the

road.

Vicky, it's okay that you're late.

We don't care.

Come whenever you can.

We don't make you do a burpee penalty

or anything like that.

Uh, Corey, uh, says to Kate,

it was cold and windy enough for me

to skip my morning sessions of rowing

intervals.

Corey, what?

Uh, Kenneth, the lap arrested.

Yes.

When it's a level three snow emergency in

Ohio,

you are not allowed to be on the

road.

Um,

From what I saw on the news last

night, they made it a level two,

which means you were discouraged from

being on the road,

but people were getting in the way of

the plows being able to get jobs done.

So they made it a level three,

so everybody had to be off the roads.

And the reason they do that is so

plows can fly through, get stuff done,

get the roads cleared,

but you are not allowed to be on

the road unless you are an essential

employee

of a business.

And like,

I used to be one for the state.

And so, uh,

they gave me a card and it,

and if I would get pulled over on

a level three,

it says I have permission to be on

the roads to get to work.

Cause I'm an essential employee.

And so like hospital workers get that, um,

stuff like that.

So it is, yeah,

they're very strict here in Ohio.

When you get like like we did yesterday,

you just can't have people blocking stuff

from getting done.

Jonathan said F to the gym at six

a.m.

Yeah, I would add,

there's no way I could have got out.

They did not plow our roads at all.

The only way I could get out now

is because a garbage truck came at about

nine to pick up garbage and pack down

some of the snow.

So I could have done that.

Corey said, no heat in the gym.

I would have been dragging ass just trying

to get warm.

We'll make it up later this week.

I'm just giving you a hard time, man.

Sometimes stuff happens.

Like you just have to deal with it,

right?

Corey, I feel you.

I have two space eaters running in my

garage right now so I can get my

workout in this afternoon.

Yeah.

I actually, Vicky,

bought a propane heater.

You just kind of like the propane tank

you get for your grill.

You plug it onto there and it has

like a bracket to hold it in place.

But man, that thing gets hot.

My garage heats up in twenty minutes.

Twenty minutes.

And you can get probably a couple hours

out of a tank.

It's pretty sweet.

now like tomorrow we're like most of this

week we're going to be in the negative

temperatures probably not going to cut

much of that but if it's like twenty

twenty five something like that and you

have this propane heater it'll it heats my

garage up to where I'm sweating um

Yeah,

it looks like a big glowing orange eye,

just a round heating element that the

propane goes through.

And it's pretty awesome.

My wife got it for me for my

birthday one year.

It is a game changer in the garage.

Game changer completely.

Mark Phillips says,

how are the fumes on that?

So what I do, Mark,

is I open my garage a little bit,

maybe like four to five inches on the

bottom.

That's where I put the propane tank and

it blows into the garage.

So it kind of fumes out there.

Plus,

I don't have a finished ceiling in my

garage.

So the fumes will go out through the

eaves anyway.

So I'm pretty safe in that regard.

um does it clip onto a twenty ounce

bottle i do not believe so a twenty

pound bottle i don't know what a twenty

pound bottle is uh jay birch um yeah

i it's like a like the normal size

propane tank that you put on a grill

um kenneth says keep your rowers in the

house like prevo there you go yeah

Sometimes I bring my assault bike down

into the podcast area.

I put it right over there,

and I'll do that.

Normal propane bottle.

Yeah, just clips on where the top is,

where you cut the handle to carry it.

There's a bracket that goes through the

holes there to keep it steady,

and then it just screws on to the

valve.

Yeah, it's great.

Corey doesn't own a rower.

Kate says, that's where mine are.

Bike erg is basically in my dining room.

Rower is in my living room.

That is dedication, Kate.

Big time dedication.

So fun stuff.

Like, so all this stuff,

you masters athletes that are really

getting after it.

That's awesome that you're trying to work

out in this weather.

But what kind of momentum do you think

we're getting for the open?

You know,

the numbers are out there that this is

a pretty good year since the first good

year since twenty twenty two.

We're heading in the right direction.

We talked last night about a lot of

people giving away open registrations.

Vicky has been giving away some.

Larry Young gave away like a shit ton

of registrations.

of registrations, all of that stuff,

I think there's really a push from the

community to get the stuff out there as

much as possible.

And I think we have this group of

athletes that are really trying to get

people to sign up for the Open.

And I saw this cool little reel today

I just wanted to share with you.

I thought it was funny.

And it's the old pass the phone trend,

if you didn't see it.

And so here is the boys interrupted and

the pass the phone trend.

I'm passing the phone to someone that has

the biggest hype in all the CrossFit Games

media,

but has never done a single thing to

back it up since the Teenage Division.

All right,

I'm passing the phone to someone who built

their legacy in

four years ago and hasn't done anything

since all right i'm passing the phone to

someone that has a bigger ego than the

check you want at the crossfit games i'm

passing the phone to somebody who does

grace better without clothes on dang that

was brutal we're passing the phone to

somebody who everybody wanted fired but

somehow still here hi i'm dave castro

director of the crossfit games so i

thought that was pretty cool especially

that they got dave to participate um

They're doing so much with CrossFit right

now, promoting it,

getting the word out there.

I think it's a really cool video.

And the fact that Dave participated with

the whole, hey,

we're passing the phone to someone who

everybody wanted fired, but is still here,

was pretty savage at the end,

as Jody said.

So really, really funny stuff.

What these guys are doing with CrossFit

right now to come to the ranch to

do the workouts this weekend with the

throwdown being open to like do anything

in the moment.

And then the fact that Matt Souza and

the Sevan podcast came out there with

their equipment to be able to live stream

it was a huge win for the CrossFit

community and the open.

And as much as that's a win and

as much as we need to do that,

and as much as we need to reach

back into the nostalgia of doing workouts

at the ranch and workouts that we've seen

before and workouts that we're connected

to, um,

We also need to reach out to people

that haven't done this stuff before.

And that's where the people like Vicky and

Larry Young and Jonathan Ortega,

who are buying these packages of open

registrations and giving them to people to

not have an excuse not to sign up.

That is as much,

that is as important as,

as what Dallin, James, Jason,

and Justin are doing.

Yeah, they're the big names,

but they're big names inside the space.

What Vicky and Larry and Jonathan are

doing are reaching out to people who may

have never done the open before and

bringing in new people who have never done

it.

That is the stuff that's going to change

things around.

The more people do that,

the better off we're going to be.

I mean,

Jenny gave away three bundles this morning

that were the shirt, the judge's course,

and an open registration on her show.

Three of them.

I mean, that's what is it?

I think it's like a sixty five dollar

value that she gave away to three people

on her show.

Scott,

is that a picture of you and TDC

over your left shoulder on the far bottom?

It is not.

I have a couple pictures with Dave.

That is not one of them.

So... This is what was asked for,

involvement of the athletes.

Yeah,

I think the athlete involvement is

awesome.

I think it is awesome.

But what they're doing...

Um,

What they're doing is good inside the

bubble of who we are.

You all that come into these CrossFit

chats,

you all that watch all the podcasts,

you all that watch the streams.

But I'm not sure any of these athletes

are getting outside that bubble.

Now,

Jason just did a podcast with Cam Haines,

just came out a few hours ago.

That's a start in that direction.

And if he promotes the Open,

promotes the game season,

promotes all that stuff,

then that is a step outside the bubble.

However, all the stuff done at the ranch,

those are the people that watch it anyway.

I want to give kudos to the people

that are reaching out beyond that bubble.

The Vickys, the Larry Youngs,

the Jonathan Ortegas,

the people that are buying these packages

and doing that.

That is what is really, really cool.

Uh, it's not Carolyn either.

If I say who it is,

you're going to be disappointed.

Um, yeah, Mark,

I know below what looks like the breaking

bad Lego RV that is the breaking bad

Lego RV.

Uh, and I know it's the picture.

I know what you're talking about.

You're talking about, uh,

that right there.

So, um,

It's Tommy Marquez.

I worked with Tommy at Morning Chalk Up.

It's back when we were doing stuff back

then.

I always had good experiences with Tommy.

I know he's kind of turned his back

on CrossFit in the past couple years.

So that's why I didn't mention it.

But we worked together at Morning Chalk

Up.

There were only two people at Morning

Chalk Up that supported me or even

acknowledged that I was a person there.

And it was him and it was Brian

Friend.

And both of them are on the outs

with CrossFit right now.

But they were the only two people that

treated me like a human being at Morning

Chalk Up.

Okay.

Rich and Jason worked with Cam,

definitely reaches outside the bubble,

just maybe not in open participation.

Yes, Rich and Jason both worked with Cam,

but after they retired.

And so it doesn't have the same effect

as the CrossFit Games champion working

with Cam.

And so that's where it's different.

Jason going on with Cam as the current

and reigning CrossFit Games champion is...

really really cool where rich and jason

did it in their retirement so they weren't

actively participating in everything so it

doesn't have the same effect but jason is

the current champ and he goes and he

does all the stuff with cam

All the stuff.

And I can't wait to watch it.

I hope that he really does use that

as a platform to push CrossFit forward.

That's the problem.

You get someone like Matt Fraser on Joe

Rogan where he's with this big audience

and he does nothing to pay back the

thing that got him the success he had.

So.

Joseph says,

clearly that's a National Lampoon's RV.

It is not.

It is the Breaking Bad mobile meth lab.

They should pay it forward by someone on

the fence at their gym or registration.

Yeah,

so many people are doing that this year.

So many people.

And I've mentioned just three of them that

I know of in this chat.

And I'm going to get a link,

and I'm going to buy some open

registrations,

and I'm going to give them away on

this show.

If you are not doing the open,

and the reason why is because you don't

want to pay for it,

we're going to do something on this show

to do that as well.

I want to pay it forward just like

everybody else did.

Okay.

Jody says, that's great.

I've got you on my big screen TV,

so I'm checking out all your stuff.

Yeah, there's a lot of stuff back there.

A lot of stuff back there, Jody.

Jake says,

do you think they do the thing that

made them famous?

I don't understand the question.

I'm willing to answer.

I just don't really know what you're

getting at, Jake.

Who wants to be on the five AM

squat club custom leaderboard?

Yeah, we've got one for this show too.

Hashtag Clydesdale out there.

If you want to be on that,

you can do multiple.

Just saying.

So I think we're going in the right

direction with the open.

I think we're getting some push.

I think people were signing up earlier,

but you still have all of the people

that are going to wait until that final

weekend to sign up.

I hope it goes up.

It would be a great sign for CrossFit

as a whole for that open registrations to

go up.

whether it be by twenty or whether it

be by two hundred thousand.

We just have to get the trend away

from going down and on the trajectory of

going back up.

And by introducing people to the open,

by paying for their registration and

getting them to sign up,

that is a way for people to experience

the stuff that we have loved for ten

years.

I mean,

this is my thirteenth CrossFit Open.

If I wouldn't have skipped twenty twenty

four, it would have been my fourteenth.

So.

I don't think the likes of Matt and

Jason owe affiliates anything because they

didn't represent the affiliates.

They're athletes who train alone.

I I don't I see what you're saying,

Jake.

I see what you're saying.

especially with Matt,

but I think Jason did start out at

an affiliate.

I think he started out at crash and

then as he got better,

then he started training alone,

but he still hangs out at crash.

He still does things there.

And at least that's more of,

and with Dallin going back to Utah and

him training out,

training across the brute people have been

connected to an affiliate and

Um,

the people that have worked out with

Torres have worked out in an affiliate.

They did it in Jacksonville.

They did it at CrossFit Naples.

Now Dallin's doing it at CrossFit Nebo.

Uh,

James is doing it at mode CrossFit in,

uh, I think Utah as well.

Um,

so some of these guys are actually

connected to affiliates.

Yeah.

They may work out alone.

Yeah.

They may do some stuff alone,

but at least they're connected to an

affiliate and

And, and they work out at that affiliate.

And James talks about like guys that he

works out with from that affiliate.

So.

RX for time.

My thirteenth open too.

Yeah.

There's a lot of people at that thirteen.

Carolyn Prevo.

This is her thirteenth.

That's why I wish I wouldn't have skipped

twenty twenty four.

Fourteen just sounds so cool.

Compare Lucy Campbell and Sprague to

Frazier and Hopper.

Yeah, I know what you're saying, Jake.

I get it.

Lucy coaches, James coaches,

James got his L too.

Lucy is getting educated on everything,

but not everybody's going to do it that

way.

And that's fine.

At least Jason is connected to CrossFit

Crash.

It is a CrossFit affiliate.

He is affiliated with them.

He works out there a good chunk of

his time.

I think that's a good thing.

Frazier, I get it.

He was not connected to an affiliate.

He did his own thing.

There was that brief time at Mayhem,

but did he really work out at Mayhem?

Probably not.

I just, I get what you're saying.

I get what you're saying.

But I think it's all by degree,

just like CrossFit itself.

It's all by degree.

There have been a lot of CrossFitters that

do not work out at an affiliate at

all.

And I think that those athletes are

missing out on something.

Jake says it's not a criticism.

I know.

It's just a discussion point.

And I'm just trying to understand where

you're at.

And I get it.

Like Lucy Campbell and James Sprague are

like drinking the Kool-Aid.

I think Dallin Pepper is on the verge

of drinking all the Kool-Aid all the way

to coaching.

I would not be surprised that Dallin

becomes a coach at some point.

I think that group, that like Lucy, James,

and Dallin are like all in.

but I think Jason's more connected than

Justin.

Justin works out in his own gym all

the time.

Now it is affiliated.

His garage gym is affiliated,

but is it truly an affiliate?

Like people from the outside can't sign

up.

They can't come.

And so like,

I don't think Justin gets the benefit of

the affiliate community.

like to see more female coaches at the

top i think i don't disagree with you

i would like to see a big a

bigger push toward that for sure for sure

but like ariel lowen's opening an

affiliate she's going to be coaching um so

i think there is like a transition back

into kind of that old school thing

But we'll see.

We'll see where we go.

John George says Sharpie.

Wrong show, but I love the idea.

I love the idea.

John George is in for his thirteenth as

well.

That's awesome.

Man,

all these double-digit CrossFit Open

athletes.

Man, hasn't it been a fun ride?

Fun ride.

I just will never forget my first ever

open.

Twenty thirteen.

The first workout was seventy five

burpees, twenty snatches.

And then I and then it just it

kept going from there,

burpees and then burpees to a target

snatches.

And at that point,

I'd never snatched one thirty five,

which was the second barbell.

And I got to it.

And didn't get it in that open.

Vicky,

if they aren't allowing for garage

affiliation,

how are these athletes affiliating their

barns?

They're paying the full price.

It's not that they don't allow you to

affiliate your garage.

It's they don't have a discounted rate to

affiliate your garage.

So Justin is paying the full affiliate fee

to affiliate the shred shed or what I

think is what it's called.

John George,

love it more today than thirteen years

ago.

It was so funny because none of the

me and my two buddies,

none of us had snatched one thirty five.

And the night before we were going to

do the opening, we had just moved.

We just opened a new affiliate and all

the paperwork hadn't been through.

So we had to videotape everything.

So we had to kind of schedule our

time to get it in.

And we were going to do it Saturday

morning to videotape it.

And my buddies and I went into the

gym Friday night.

and just were making attempt after attempt

to get a one thirty five snatch that

whole night.

It was absolutely insane.

And that was as much fun as doing

the workout.

Like coming together as my little crew,

trying to get a hundred and thirty five

pound snatch for the first time.

And where we are today is so different

than where we were then.

Now, like one thirty five snatches,

just it's I do that for reps in

a workout.

Like but back then I couldn't I could

not hit one.

um and i was so tired going into

that holy crap um at ai everyone in

chat please like the stream yes please

like subscribe do all that kind of stuff

you know like of all the people that

listen to the show only about forty

percent subscribe only forty percent and

it's free you don't have to pay anything

to subscribe just hit that button

Jake,

I trained today with the kid who was

born when I did my first open,

that is nuts.

That is nuts.

Makes you feel really, really damn old.

Twenty thirteen was a different time, too,

because you could not scale the open

workout.

There was one workout.

You either did it or you tried.

And.

Yeah.

And everything was kind of gated back

then.

Like,

the first piece of every workout was

pretty doable,

so you could at least get a score.

And then...

And then things got rough.

But the workouts themselves were tough at

the time.

Like my favorite workout ever was twenty

fourteen, fourteen three.

And it was deadlifts and box jumps.

And the deadlift at the beginning was

super light, but it got real heavy,

real fast.

And and I love that workout.

I love that workout.

My favorite workout of any open workout

ever.

He destroyed me at Cindy.

Yeah, those kids doing body weight stuff.

Kids today have,

if they are an active child,

their body awareness is ridiculous.

And doing body weight stuff is just,

it's just easy for them.

so yeah good times man good times in

the open um a couple other things before

we go uh one more person accepted at

mayhem so we have chris ibarra who has

accepted at me mayhem um i don't know

what that puts their number at now uh

but we have they announced that today

You can see there Chris Ibarra accepted

his invite to Mayhem.

So that's someone new today.

So they're filling out their roster.

Fun stuff there.

And the last thing I wanted to talk

about is

know i'm a huge nfl fan i'm a

huge chicago bear fan i've got my ice

man caleb williams shirt on today um the

season's over for me right we have the

super bowl and i'll watch that but like

i was watching three and four bears

podcasts a day

and NFL news.

And now I've got none of that to

watch.

And I don't know if there's enough

CrossFit content to fill it.

And now I've got to find something to

fill my day.

I let these podcasts run during my workday

and I just listen and listen and listen.

And now I've got to find a replacement.

So if anybody has cool podcasts that they

listen to during the day and

shoot them to me because I'd really,

really like to get some different stuff

in.

And I know that once the open hits,

like the podcast,

the CrossFit stuff is going to kick up

a notch and I'll have some of that

to do.

But yeah,

I just need some stuff to listen to.

Like this weekend,

I watched more movies than I've watched

forever because of the storm coming in and

no NFL, no college football,

no stuff like that.

So I watched more movies this weekend than

I have in forever.

The Rams Hawks game was good last night.

It was, it was, I,

we were live on the air when that

was going.

So I had to kind of catch it

after the fact I want,

I really didn't care who won.

I like both stories.

The fact that Sam Darnold beat his ghosts

and got to the Superbowl was pretty

freaking awesome.

And I don't tell me you're a Pat's

guy.

I am not a Pat's guy.

I was rooting for the Broncos yesterday.

Big time.

I wanted Jared Stidham to be the guy

that came off the bench and took the

Broncos to the Super Bowl.

And regardless of who made it to the

Super Bowl from the AFC,

the NFC was going to win.

Whether it was the Rams or the Seahawks,

whoever won that game was winning the

Super Bowl.

And that's what's frustrating as a Bears

fan because the Bears had the Rams on

the ropes and didn't close.

And didn't close.

But I'm not dwelling on it.

I'm just happy we're moving in the right

direction.

All of that.

But the Seahawks are going to kill the

Patriots in the Super Bowl.

They're going to destroy them.

Drake May has been sacked fifteen times in

three games.

And the Seahawks have a better pass rush

than any of the teams they've played.

It is going to be a bloodbath in

the Super Bowl.

Early prediction.

I watched the twenty eighteen and twenty

nineteen docs yesterday.

I watched Frazier and Uncle Pat fall off

the cargo net in quick succession.

Yeah,

still one of my favorite means is the

Americans means is the American sniper

taking out Frazier and Uncle Pat on the

cargo net.

And I as a Seattle guy,

you're my new best friend.

Glad to hear it, man.

I mean, that defense is legit.

And they are going to destroy.

They're going to destroy the Pats.

It's not even going to be close.

Yeah.

Corey, to be honest, some of the docs,

they just became very repetitive.

And I don't remember at what point I

just...

I stopped enjoying them as much.

I really enjoy the behind the scenes way

more than the documentaries themselves.

The documentaries always pick five people

at the beginning and that's all you get

through that documentary.

The behind the scenes doesn't select

anybody.

I mean,

Savan does a great job of just going

up and talking to anybody one through

thirty, one through forty,

and you never know who he's going to

talk to next.

And you learn stuff that you never knew

before.

So, yeah.

I really...

It used to be that they were a

nice tandem.

They seem to like go hand in hand,

where if you watch the documentary and the

behind the scenes of the same period

through the week, it was really,

really cool.

It lined up really well.

And I really enjoyed that.

And then I think there was a time

where that kind of veered off.

the doc guys did their own thing and

the behind the scenes did savon did his

own thing and so it didn't have the

the tie together as well um and so

yeah

I used to love both.

I used to love both.

I would pay for both.

I mean,

I paid for the CrossFit membership to get

all the journal stuff,

including the behind the scenes.

I paid for the videos when they came

out on the documentary.

I legit love it all.

But the last few years, man,

the doc has not been anything new or

different.

I am curious about this one.

Jenna has promised me that this

documentary coming out from last year's

games is very different than what's been

done in the past.

And so I'll take her at a word

that it is.

I just chatted with her a couple of

nights ago and she really has promised me

that this is going to be different,

really different.

Jody says, if I'm stuck for content,

I go to Soft White Underbelly.

Amazing human interest stories.

Okay.

I'll check it out.

I'll check it out.

I'm not a true crime guy.

My wife listens to all of that stuff.

I get enough of that just through osmosis.

Okay.

Corey says, I hope she's right.

Could be a great thing for the community.

I do like all this stuff has to

tie together.

All of these efforts,

if they like play off of one another

and build off of one another,

that's what the community needs.

That's what CrossFit needs.

They need to get this ball rolling.

So it becomes an avalanche again.

The problem is before you'd have one

person rolling the snowball and then they

would leave and another person would start

another snowball and the snowballs never

came together as one big ball to come

into an avalanche.

That's what we need.

We need it all to come into one

big snowball.

That is my sage advice.

Stop making separate snowballs and make

one big snowball.

Hope that made sense.

I don't know.

It's Monday.

Trying to get my energy up.

Well, I'm going to head back to work,

guys.

You knuckleheads should do the same.

I will see everybody next time on.

Shanna says we need a snowball czar.

There we go.

There we go.

Scott likes snowballs.

Film at eleven.

Low carb MD podcast.

Dr. Tro has an excellent one.

Okay.

There's another one.

Jody feed me content.

Shanna and Corey feed me snowballs.

That's what I want.

Jay Burch snowballs chance in hell.

Come on, man.

Come on.

Eddie,

I wish I won the big two billion

Powerball.

You'd work for CrossFit HQ.

I would take the job.

New week, week in review.

Out, go watch.

Yeah, I watch those every week, Mark.

Every week.

You have to know what Dave's saying.

Although I've noticed since we have the

CrossFit Games podcast or Sport of Fitness

podcast, whatever...

the name of that thing is that Dave's

week in review is more personal,

less CrossFit,

which I kind of like that you're moving

the news to the official CrossFit channel

and letting Dave just talk about his week

and doing kind of the personal thing.

I think that's better.

Um,

And it was a slight little shift in

change, but I think it's a good shift.

And Dave appears on that Sport of Fitness

podcast when it comes on too.

So that's really good.

We have our weatherman Jay Birch down in

Texas saying that it's still cold for TFX,

but the weather outlook is looking better.

Yeah, that thing's outside.

It was chilly and there was none of

what's going on right now when I last

went to TFX.

And the wind out there is, it whips.

So if it's chilly at all, man,

that wind takes the feels like temperature

way down.

Way, way down.

All right, guys, I'm heading back to work.

We'll see you guys tomorrow.

Don't forget to like and subscribe to the

channel.

Love you all.

Have a great rest of your Monday,

and we will see you tomorrow afternoon.

Bye, guys.
