what is going on everybody
it's tuesday afternoon time
for some lunch with the
clydesdale uh it's a big
day here you know what day it is it is
college football playoff
night starts off tonight my
beloved penn state nittany
lions taking on boise state
seven thirty p.m eastern
time tonight in the first
game of the four
quarterfinal matchups to
happen tonight and tomorrow
when I was a kid I loved
that my birthday was on new
year's day and I could just
hang out and watch football all day long
And the fact that my Nittany
Lions are in the playoffs
and they get to play around my birthday.
My birthday is not until tomorrow.
Celebrate tonight, hopefully,
with a victory.
Get to enjoy tomorrow with all that.
So super stoked about that.
Good afternoon, Corey, Jay Birch, Holly,
Jody.
What's going on, guys?
And happy anniversary, Jay Birch.
Today is his thirty-year
wedding anniversary.
I'm getting close, man.
I'm right behind you.
I am at twenty-seven.
Twenty-seven years, I think.
This May.
I should probably do the math more.
But yeah.
Holly says,
happy anniversary to Jay Birch
and an early happy birthday to me.
Thank you so much.
I'm pretty stoked about it.
Got a lot of cool plans for the year.
And Corey has made it six years.
Hey, got to start somewhere, man.
I remember those first years, man.
Those were probably harder
than the later years.
So super stoked for tonight.
Hopefully Penn State plays well.
Their defense can tackle the
best running back in the country.
Really stoked about that.
I think they can do it.
If they can tackle him early,
then the game becomes much
easier because they are
kind of a one-trick pony.
But yeah.
so uh really stoked for that
I know I'm saying stoked a
lot I don't know why I'm
that's happening uh today's
the last day I work for a
week uh because we have
some procedures coming up
and I just took a couple
days off in between uh but
yeah so today's my last
work day so this is my last
work lunch hour we'll do a
couple more uh throughout
the week as we kind of uh
finish up the the year and
start the new one um but I
wanted to talk about a few things today
While we were on the air
last night with Sunday
Night CrossFit Talk on a Monday,
which was a great show,
lots of participation last night,
getting some workouts in on
our traveling gauntlet-style workout.
Now they're starting to flow
in a little bit more,
and you can get your name into the...
You can get your name into
the drawing for one of our
either water bottles right there.
It's got the little pop-up straw on it.
It's stainless steel.
Keeps your drink cold.
And it's got the cool
Clydesdale Media logo on it.
You can see that there.
we also have the the the
coffee mug uh same color
same stainless steel makeup
just a little small smaller
so if you win you get to
pick which one of those you
want and we'll get that
sent out to you uh but we
have we now have a handful
of entries uh into the
traveling gauntlet and if
you go back and listen to
last night's show at the
very end we get into like
much more detail about what
we are trying to accomplish
here what we think someone should do
And what like CrossFit
should do or some
organization should do to
get the community to come
back together and do some events as a big,
large community.
But we get into more details
about the details of all
that and what we're kind of looking for.
So make sure to check that out.
And it's probably in the last ten minutes,
the last ten minutes of the
show from last night.
If you want to know more
about that and how to enter
to win one of those prizes.
So Judy always needs reminded by Jody.
It's nice to have that
personal concierge that
takes care of you.
But is the notifier not working for you,
Judy?
My notifier didn't work today either,
actually,
because usually I get a pop-up
on this other screen saying
that I'm going live,
but I didn't get it today.
So that's weird.
So the main thing I wanted
to talk about today is loyalty.
And where has it gone?
And if I'm doing some self-evaluation,
I would say that one of my
fatal flaws is that I am
loyal to a fault.
I will hang on for longer than I should,
even when things aren't working.
So...
But, but because I'm that way,
when people aren't loyal, I get,
I get upset.
And I,
especially when it's with my friends
involved.
And so what I want to talk
about is last night, the barbell spin,
maybe it was last night.
I don't know, but I'm,
I'm behind on my Instagram.
So
where he said no underdogs
in the bio and it's Ricky
Gerrard's athlete profile on Instagram.
And then, you know,
the little emoji like this.
And so why,
why this affects me so much in this case,
um,
I'm going to have to be a little bit
talking elite fitness here and I,
and I don't mean to be,
but I need to do it for context.
So in I was at the west
coast classic in Las Vegas.
After that was over,
I was invited to dinner at
Justin Kotler's house with
him and his wife and his family.
At that dinner, Cat was with me.
We were there having dinner,
and they approached Cat and
I with a question.
If given the opportunity to
coach Ricky Garrard,
would it make sense to do so?
it was a very tough decision
for justin to make and what
I learned that night is he
was actually approached by
ricky to be a coach um and
if you remember he's coming
off a four-year suspension
for peds um he was trying
to rebuild an image um and
it was it was a difficult
decision to say do I take
this person on and at the
time justin was coaching
bethany danielle and carrie
as well as a handful of others.
And they were,
they had just swept the West
coast classic.
Those three women took first, second,
and third at that semifinal that year.
So Justin is at the top of his game.
Ricky comes to him and asked
him to be his coach.
And he has to make that
decision with all the
baggage that Ricky brought to the table.
He makes that decision to take on Ricky.
And since then,
when Ricky has been healthy,
he has podiumed at the games.
He has won Waterpalooza.
He has done all those things.
What I find...
infuriating is now now it
seems and this is not
official this is just the
barbell's been putting this
out we've heard nothing
from ricky so if he is not
leaving underdogs then all
of this is moot but if he
leaves underdogs and you
have a person that stuck
their neck out for you when
you were at your lowest
trying to come back and
rebuild your image in the
sport and you did so
You and him put together a
package where you came in
and you were successful and
you finished second at the games.
You podiumed.
You won Wadapalooza twice.
You've done all these things.
The only times you have not
performed well are when you
decided to go mountain biking,
jump off a ramp,
and break your collarbone, shoulder,
whatever it was.
or when you were doing chad
came off the box turned
your ankle and it forced
you to change the way uh
you could perform through
the rest of the games now
uh you're deciding to go
with another camp if the
rumors are true to proven
Now, I get it.
Tia is in Australia right now.
You get to train with her there.
Jay Crouch, Maddie Sturt.
It's a pretty good training
situation there.
But Justin has not failed you in anything.
And I posted my feelings to the post,
and I'll show that real quick.
Because someone responded,
and I have this platform,
so I'm going to respond back.
Uh, and so you can see here's my,
when you're at your lowest
and people help lift you up,
your answer should not be
to turn your back on that person.
If true, no longer a fan.
So one of the responses was
Clydesdale Media,
change is not always bad.
A change of scenery,
training with the GOAT
could be a great opportunity.
Wouldn't call it turning
your back on someone called growth.
I don't know how this is growth.
You have been completely
successful when healthy
with Justin Kotler.
And what athlete has gone to
train with Tia
Other than Matt Frazier,
who was already successful
before he went there,
what other athlete that has
gone to train with Tia been
successful or gotten to a
point where Ricky wants to get to?
Didn't work for Saxon Pancheck?
Didn't work for Brooke Wells?
You name the athletes,
they have not done well
once they have gone and
worked out with Peruvian.
So, I...
I don't know.
I'm just at a loss.
I know that in this world today,
loyalty is not what it used to be.
You know,
my dad worked at the same company
for forty plus years.
That just isn't even heard of today.
Right.
We bounce from the best
opportunity for ourselves.
And maybe that's what he
feels like he's doing.
But it just seems like when
someone took a chance on
you to walk away seems to be.
uh not not a great decision
uh jody said maybe cutler
increased his coaching
price um I don't think it
is a coaching price I think
it is a percentage of uh
what the athlete earns but
I don't don't quote me on
that I think I heard that
somewhere at one point uh
jay birch says ricky might
be a little too arrogant to be loyal
Judy Reed says,
maybe he was kicked out like DBE was.
I don't think anybody could
be kicked out like DBE was.
And that's just because I
know a little bit of the backstory there.
Aaron Frazier says,
Jay Crouch has certainly
made some big leaps in the past two years,
but don't think he has the
same potential.
I wouldn't disagree with you,
but I don't think that Jay
trains with Tia all the time.
I think that Jay and Maddie
train together and they
occasionally get together
to train with Tia.
And I would argue that Jay
was on the Ascension and
signed to Proven right
before the twenty twenty
three CrossFit Games where
he did really well.
He wasn't even with he was
signed between Torian Pro
and the games in twenty twenty three.
He had that top ten finish
barely being with Proven
for a for a month, I think, at the time.
Yeah.
Joey says, I hear you.
Seems disingenuous on Ricky's part.
And again, none of this is confirmed,
so we don't know that he's
actually doing this,
but there is a lot of smoke
around this story for sure.
And Aaron comes back with,
but I agree with you about loyalty.
There's no loyalty in this sport.
And maybe it's
I mean,
loyalty is less sports a long time ago.
Nobody stays with the same
team from the beginning of
their career to the end in football,
baseball, basketball, whatever.
I mean,
LeBron James has been switched
teams four times and three
different organizations.
Uh,
and he's one of the greatest players in
the world.
You never,
you never saw that with Michael
Jordan until the end.
And that's just because he
probably shouldn't have
retired and not come back to play.
Um,
But it was just,
it was weighing heavy on my mind because,
and I will admit,
I am good friends with Justin Kotler.
I love that man.
I think he is awesome.
And so it's probably hitting
me a little bit differently
than it would if it was
Kiefer or Max Elhaj or Matt
Frazier or any of the other
leaders of an organization.
But I have a close
relationship with Justin, and so for me,
it just stings a little bit more is all.
So with that,
that's kind of my loyalty
speech with that today.
I also have been kind of on
this little riff about
I read this story about how
well the the jake paul mike
tyson fight did on netflix
and that the nfl games on
christmas day blew up um
got five times the ratings
of the nba uh on the same
day and so the more I
thought about it and um pat
midgley helped me a lot with this
is that you have these shows
on Netflix like The Physical One Hundred.
Now on Prime,
you have the Mr. Beast games.
You have all these like this
event programming that the
streaming services seem to
get behind and market and
make it a more popular
sport or a more popular contest,
whatever you want to call it.
with that I think that that
is an avenue that if you
either the wfp or the
crossfit game season should
explore trying to get a
deal with one of those
streaming companies to go
in and film a season where
they can tell a story you
also have like uh the golf
show on netflix I think it's um
Uh, I don't even,
my brain is fried as I'm
almost done with work for the week.
Um, but, but it has the,
like the golf show where
you can follow the golfers
through a season.
It has the F one show where
you can do the same thing.
Full swing.
Thank you.
Understand.
Uh, the F one has a show as well.
Uh, more and more sports are doing this.
You could say the WFP packages,
a deal where you, um,
where you film the season
itself in addition to the
athletes prepping.
You have the twenty males
and twenty females that you
know are participating in every event,
and then you have some
challengers that you can
kind of shoot in there as
well that I think would
make amazing storytelling
and would be an awesome way
to look at different ways
of a revenue source in
addition to better coverage
and a different coverage.
We've been talking on this
show forever that the same
broadcasting group gets the
job for the CrossFit Games
every year and all the big events,
and nothing has changed
with the coverage of the sports.
You get the same angles.
You get the same close-ups.
You get all that stuff.
Wouldn't it be cool to have
someone like a Netflix
production company to come in
look at it and film it from
a different perspective and
a different angle and a different,
just to see what's possible.
Um,
Jay Birch says,
is there enough money in
the ecosystem to do that?
Well,
WFP is touting fifteen million
dollars and that they have
other investors available.
If you can sell it as a storyline,
then maybe the production
company helps with the cost
of that so that they have a
show to broadcast.
Andrew Sten says,
not sure the sport has the
personalities for something like that,
but something different needs to be done.
I disagree.
I think that.
that they do have the
personalities to do that.
And we've seen it with some
of the alternative
coverages that have
happened over the last two years.
with Sivan doing the semifinals,
with Taylor versus the world on that,
with the kill Taylor.
I think you have
personalities throughout
the sport that are willing to talk smack,
that are willing to let you in,
that are willing to do all these things.
They just need to be given
the opportunity to do so.
All that media that used to
do that has gone away.
And except for...
in fairness be friendly and
savan who have gone out and
done alternative coverages
that's where things are if
you got someone
professional like a prime
or a netflix or somebody
like that to do something
very similar I think it
could be sold to them
especially in the wfp
format that makes um the
season a very condensed and
um easily understood season
And I think that is key to that.
Where CrossFit has a
drawback is nobody knows
what these in-person semifinals are.
Are they regionally based?
Are they not regionally based?
We have that in addition to
an online version of it.
So...
The CrossFit game season is
a whole bunch of if-then-else statements.
If you've ever worked in IT,
that seems to be where we're going,
where the WFP is go to this event,
earn points, go to this event,
earn points, top-thirty, go to this event,
and earn double points to
see what the leaderboard is
at the end of the year.
um anderson asks is the
sport too small or niche
for it to work f-one and
pga are huge and have been
around for a very long time
there are shows like the
physical one hundred that
have been hugely successful
on netflix um that are even
more niche than what crossfit is
And people tune into that all the time.
I think if you tell the
story correctly and you get
interest in some of the characters,
just like Savan,
nobody knew who Taylor self
was before all of this stuff.
Savan took him, told his story,
which is fascinating.
And this,
and he had an ability to be the
underdog who could come up
and beat people.
Colton Mertens is the
ultimate underdog where we
now know his complete backstory.
And when you tell that story,
now you have someone to root for.
And it's even cooler when
you find those people in
the challengers who are
trying to get and gain the
pro card and get into that
top twenty so that they
have a contract the next year.
Everybody loves the underdog story.
If you do good storytelling,
it can be successful.
And the other thing,
all these shows that Netflix puts on,
they put their own
marketing arm behind it and push it.
And right now,
the way it's done is we
lazily just throw it up on
YouTube and hope people come to watch it.
This way,
you throw it up on Netflix or
Prime and let them do the
hard work of marketing it
and getting people to come watch it.
Pat Midgley says, Andrew, maybe,
but a show like this,
if a big streaming service
bought it and produced it,
would take it to a new level.
And I agree.
Now, again,
I think the WFP and the way
it's organized makes more
sense at this point to do this.
But if you can do it as a proof of concept,
I think it's definitely doable.
Chris Beesterfield says,
ten years too late.
It probably is,
but better late than never.
If they would have done
something like this in two
thousand seventeen or two
thousand eighteen,
I think that the streaming
services would jump at the chance.
But in all seriousness,
the streaming services
didn't know the effect of
event programming until the
last couple years.
They're the ones that I'm
reading the articles on.
They're looking for event
programming because they're
finding that it is cheaper
to produce than original
movies and TV shows,
and it's pulling in massive ratings.
Best bang for the buck.
So that's where I'm getting
this idea is I've been
reading some of the
business sections of
different newspapers and
online places over the last few days,
talking about how the big
streaming companies are
looking for event programming.
It's just cheaper to produce,
and it's more bang for the
buck on a ratings scale.
that's where I've kind of
dove down this rabbit hole
over and it really happened
uh this all came out after
the nfl was on netflix on
christmas day and then
everybody's talking about
with the boom of event
programming that's what the
streaming services are
going to be looking for uh
so yeah so philip I would
say you could rewind and
check it out or that we're
talking about instead of
instead of crossfit or the
wfp going after espn or cbs
as a broadcasting partner
go after a streaming
service that's going to do
more to market your brand
than cbs or espn we talked
last night I think it was
or yesterday afternoon that
um cbs aired rogue over the
weekend and none of us even
knew it we just some of us
accidentally came across it
so cbs did not even
promote it didn't um
announce that it was going
to be on um and so I think
it would be better to
partner with a streaming
service who are going to
market their shows
especially their original
shows uh on on the services
that's all it's just been a
rabbit hole I've died down
dove down and have just
been excited to talk about
so there's that
I want to finish up with a couple things,
and then we'll be back
tomorrow for kind of a
year-end podcast show.
And so what I'm going to
finish with is Dave's Week
in Review came out last
night while we were on the air.
Good point, Corey.
Neither did Rogue, for that matter.
I caught it at the bowling alley,
for Christ's sake.
Yep.
Yep.
So Dave's Weekend Review
came out last night.
It appears that he is really
just dipping his toe in the
water getting back into
these weekend reviews.
The first one was only three minutes long.
The second one is...
The second one is about four minutes long.
Last night,
I had a really hard time hearing him.
He wasn't using a mic.
He was outside.
But he really just talked
about going to Greg
Glassman's to hear a new
presentation he's giving as
part of the Broken Science Initiative.
But he hasn't really got
into any kind of game stuff,
any kind of competitive
CrossFit stuff in his first two weeks.
And I know he said he's just
trying to get the muscle memory back.
So hopefully over the next few weeks,
we'll start learning a
little bit more about those things,
which he did kind of
address at the end of this,
that that stuff would be coming.
But he's doing a lot of
traveling in addition to that this week.
So, yeah.
uh so hopefully get another
one next week and we start
getting a little bit more
news out of those weekend
reviews so tomorrow's show
I'm gonna do like some
year-end podcast stuff like
my favorite shows I'm gonna
count down my top ten shows
of the year um things like
that but what I'm gonna do
today is I'm just gonna
share a couple of my
favorite moments for the year um
So I live in the land of blimps.
Akron,
Ohio is just about an hour and a
half away.
And that is where the
Goodyear blimps are housed.
And what's creating my house
is right in the flight path
to Ohio State.
So every time there's a big
game at Ohio State,
the blimp flies right over
top of my house.
And that'd be cool.
Big Clydesdale Media logo on
the side of the blimp.
That'd be fun.
If we're dreaming.
Oh, you want it to be CrossFit,
CrossFit blimp.
Oh, I want it to be a Clydesdale blimp.
Yeah, Kenneth, I'm in the blimp belt.
That's where I am.
Um, so these are a couple,
these are two shows or two
things that happened this
year that I was really,
one is just my favorite
show that I did this year
and it's not like full on CrossFit.
So I wanted to share it today.
I won't put it in my top ten.
Um,
but one of the shows that was my
favorite this year was I had, um,
come across a story about a woman who.
was a a really good swimmer
had made it to uh the
olympic trials I think she
retired from swimming she
started doing crossfit she
added one day of uh
swimming back into her
routine did a couple meets
and accidentally qualified
for the olympic trials but
by primarily doing crossfit
And so I reached out to her.
I got to know her.
And that is my episode with
Caitlin Johnson.
And I'm going to share a
screenshot of that right now.
So this was our episode with
Caitlin Johnson.
This was done back before semifinals,
I believe.
But this is her picture of
her at the Olympic trials.
And I'll just play.
The funny thing about this
story is that I reached out
to her not really knowing a
lot about her history.
And then when I reach out to
an athlete or a guest,
then I do a deep dive
research thing into them so
that I am prepared when they come on.
Come to find out,
she grew up in Western
Pennsylvania just like I did.
She went to the college where I,
when I was a swimmer in high school,
had private lessons.
And we had some of the same coaches.
So we got to share a lot of
experiences in this
interview about the people
that taught us how to swim.
And I'm just going to play a
little snippet for you.
Not too much, but...
CrossFit and yet so swimming
because you've got the big,
the big swimming thing behind you,
but you're doing the
CrossFit handstand picture
outside of Lucasville stadium.
Yeah.
My friends were real troopers.
I was like, guys,
I need to take this picture.
Like where was the perfect picture here?
So I like three friends,
like take all kinds of
pictures trying to get the
best one for me.
So got all the angles.
Yeah.
Um, so yeah, that, that's really cool.
And then,
Let's get into your swimming
career so people know how good you were.
So that's just a little snippet from it.
We go on to talk that she
grew up in Western Pennsylvania,
that we had the same coaches.
And it was really a fun
interview and kind of fun
for me to go back and kind
of relive some of my
swimming days with her and
sharing the same coaches.
And it just was fun.
And she went to...
we both ended up going to
the same college at some point.
I'm much older than she is.
So I was there way earlier.
Uh,
but we talked about like restaurants
and stuff that,
and things that we would do in that town.
Uh, and it's a little division two school.
And the funny thing was that
my dream was to swim for that school.
They, they had won like.
Ten straight national
championships as a division two school.
And I wanted to swim for
them and I could not, I could not, um,
I was not good enough to make their team.
I ended up swimming.
I was recruited by some
division one schools and I
ended up walking on at Ohio
state and I swam for Ohio
state for a brief amount of time,
but I could,
I was not good enough to swim
for this division two school.
She was there.
She won like she was as many
championships as you could win.
She did.
She was that good at that
division two level.
Um,
And she ended up winning...
She's in the Hall of Fame
at the school now.
She's... A lot of cool things.
A lot of cool things with her.
But she also competes in CrossFit now.
And so she's competed at Wadapalooza.
She's competed at different big events.
TFX.
Things like that.
But she's actually... She
moved since this interview to Austin,
Texas.
And is training down there now.
But yeah...
Super fun interview.
Kenneth says it's episode
eight ninety four.
I think I'm going to take
his word on that.
Because I do not know for sure.
Let me go to the beginning here and see.
Dang, I don't know.
It is eight ninety four.
Good call.
Kenneth, you are the man.
You're the man.
Judy Reed.
I can't do it.
I went to Ohio State for a
brief amount of time.
My experience there was not awesome.
And it's a Penn State day for me.
It's Penn State.
Can't do it.
I know that you are loyal to
your Buckeyes.
Your son is there.
They play tomorrow against
the number one team in the country.
That's going to be an awesome game.
Can't wait to see that as well.
But, yeah.
So,
Kaitlin Johnson was my favorite
interview of the year,
really just for personal reasons,
not for CrossFit reasons.
But I wanted to just share that.
And then my favorite thing
of the year was –
the eleven part documentary
I did at the CrossFit
Masters CrossFit Games.
This was a labor of love.
This took eleven weeks to
get through to build and huge thanks to
Jonathan Ortega for editing
all of the workout videos
in the middle of these.
Thank you to Ellie Hiller
for getting the interviews with me.
But then it was editing it all together.
And I just,
even reliving it through the
editing process was awesome.
This is the favorite thing
that I've ever done from a
work perspective in my life.
Holly was awesome with the
graphics and she is not biased at all.
She said it turned out so well.
It is literally the most
favorite thing I've ever
done with this channel in
addition to my whole working life.
I've never been prouder of
anything that I've done.
And this was just a blast.
And I hope I get to do
something similar to that
this year once we know more
about the structure of the season.
But dang.
And then Caitlin Walters as well.
She was also a videographer for me.
So I don't want to leave her out either.
So Caitlin Walters, Jonathan Ortega,
Holly Dugan, Ellie Hiller,
that team put this together.
And I am so proud of each
and every one of you
because this is by far my
favorite thing that I have ever done.
Kenneth is asking who's number one.
We have to tune in tomorrow.
Oh, number one in the country.
That's Oregon.
Oregon.
Oregon.
I thought you meant number
one show that I'm going to
be revealing tomorrow.
And I wasn't giving you a sneak peek.
So those are two of my
favorite things from the year.
And that's just a preview of
kind of what we'll talk about tomorrow.
Um, uh, rogue is going back to Aberdeen,
Scotland, October, the first to November.
Second, just announced, uh,
barbell spin did the
background check on the
hotels in Aberdeen, uh,
and kind of leaked this early.
So apparently rogue has
announced it officially now.
Uh, clock.
How is it possible?
Oregon's first game is against OSU.
Certainly one of the top
three teams in the bracket,
but Penn state gets to
skate into the semis
playing SMU and Boise state.
Uh,
I think that the first year
of the college football
playoff is flawed in.
Oh, so many ways.
Um,
I think that the conference champions
getting automatic by our
will be done after this season,
because now you see that
the seating is not right.
Um, they should get,
if you win the conference,
you should get in,
but not necessarily a buy
and into the second round.
Um,
And I think that's why we
had blowouts in the first round,
because you had teams like
Penn State and Texas that
may have been in the top
four and really should have gotten a buy.
And then let the other teams
kind of scrap it out to get
to the Elite Eight and then
take on the teams that
should be ranked in the top four.
Yeah.
But I will say as a Penn State fan,
I'm not mad today that we
get to take on Boise State
instead of Oregon.
I will say that.
And I'm not mad that Ohio
State and Oregon have to
play and one of them will
be knocked out before the
national championship game.
Not mad about that.
So just saying.
So with that, check in tomorrow.
I'll be counting down my top
ten shows of the year and
revealing those to you guys.
And if anything pops up news-wise,
of course, we'll talk about that as well.
But what I want to tell you
guys is I appreciate your
loyalty to the show and the
way you guys always show up.
And if you weren't here for the beginning,
that is great.
That is what we talked about
off the top in the Ricky
Gerard situation.
But I love that you guys are
loyal to the show and that
you come in and hang out every day.
These lunch hour shows have
been awesome to just kind of sit back,
chat, no real format, no real prep,
just kind of talking into a
microphone and answering
your questions or showing
your statements and responding to that.
It's been a blast.
You guys are awesome.
And Judy Reed is mad about what...
about osu and oregon having
to play each other and uh
holly I think nowhere near
a championship but we
finally won a bowl game and
if you don't know holly is
a a graduate or an attendee
of nebraska university of
nebraska um the corn
huskers and they've had a
rough couple years so yeah
winning a bowl game for
them is probably pretty cool
with that guys as always
it's been a pleasure
hanging out with you today
I will be back tomorrow for
my birthday as we count
down my top favorite shows
of the year and uh yeah who
knows who knows what's
gonna happen we will um
we'll see you guys all then
thank you so much bye guys
