It's been around for a long time, folks.
But I have to settle a beef.
Settle a beef.
I like beef.
Last week,
Daniel Arnson kept coming into our chat
talking about how evil Flow Elite was,
Flow Sport,
the games being behind a paywall.
kicking and screaming every day throwing a
tantrum like a twelve-year-old boy the
DDSP the DDSP then I get a DM
from him over the weekend with his receipt
that he purchased the flow Elite package
and I said um
They got you.
And he said,
I was always going to buy it.
I just wasn't going to do it without
making a fuss.
I was going to bitch about it first.
I was never not going to buy it.
I was just going to bitch about it
first.
I understand, Daniel.
I texted you yesterday.
I re-upped mine and it was twenty one
dollars and eighty eighty nine cents.
Yeah, if you cancel and you come back,
they give you a discount.
I didn't even cancel mine.
It was just pause.
Like it was it was.
I had it whenever we were in Birmingham
and then paused it, you know,
so it just wouldn't charge me monthly.
And then when I unpaused it,
it was like, here,
give us twenty one dollars and eighty nine
cents.
And I was like, cool.
OK,
so I am we are back in the
saddle.
Terrible Tessa, he screams drama.
I mean, look,
some people live that kind of way.
Absolutely fine.
Seema wants to know,
is there a refer a friend discount code?
I have not seen one.
I ain't seen one.
I have not seen one.
That would be nice if it was,
but I have not seen one.
Daniel's now saying his master diabolical
plan is to find a way to get
reimbursed for the entire month.
Dude, if you need twenty bucks that bad,
like I can probably swing that.
Yeah, I mean, come on, dude.
Oh, man.
So...
Joseph is trying to start trouble again.
We had this debate a month ago.
And he asks, is Fig Newton a cookie?
It is.
I have proof.
I was watching a special with America's...
Like how... It was one of those like...
What is it?
The History Channel does those like
history of foods and shit.
Baking America.
And it was a cookie special.
And in the cookie special was the Fig
Newton and how it came about.
So, yes, it is a cookie.
And it is a delicious cookie.
And if you think otherwise, you're wrong.
And I saw you, Judy Reed.
I'm going to assume that it's Birchfield's
birthday,
being as high as mentioned it twice.
Happy birthday, Jay Birch.
Happy birthday, Jay Birch.
Love you, brother.
Seema's already scheduling her week around
the start times for the CrossFit Games.
I understand.
I understand.
Look, I get it.
I do the same thing.
I got some business clothes this morning.
I got some other stuff due and like
tomorrow's going to be a little bit
thinner.
And then Wednesday,
like I'm fairly well useless while I'm
here.
It's ridiculous.
Terrible Tessa says that that money that
Daniel is using is his manicure money.
Got it.
Got it.
Got it.
Got it.
Yeah.
CrossFit says the Fig Newton is a mini
cake.
I don't like cake, though.
I like a Fig Newton.
So do you not like cake?
I don't like cake.
What if it's about this big and filled
with fig?
What about then?
I might give that cake a shot.
not talking like a whole cake i'm talking
about one that's you know two and two
one and a half by one and a
half or so something like that i mean
phil which yeah it would say oh man
uh it's a fig bar that is not
what my package says trained i know you're
sick i'm trying to be easy on you
i'm not and there's my guy eric mackie
and they're damn good fig newton's in the
history channel
The history channel.
The history channel.
The history channel.
That's the history of history.
The history channel is a whole different
kind of channel.
That's a different channel right there.
Oh, my word.
Don't type that into the search bar.
No, no, no.
Not on your work computer.
That is the history channel.
It's NSFW.
Not at all.
Not at all.
Okay.
On a completely unrelated topic,
are we doing shoe shout outs?
Because I got mine on.
Oh, you got yours on?
I do.
Mine are still upstairs in the box.
You haven't even tried them on yet?
Dude,
I've got so much going on trying to
get ready for the games and my trip.
Yep.
It has not even.
Ladies and gentlemen,
I know we have said this before,
but I am a big fan of the
Hayes, Strike Movement Hayes.
And our friends over at Box Basics sent
us each there to try out because they
are awesome people.
Huge shout-out to Box Basics.
Huge shout-out to Justin and them,
who's actually competing at the Games in
the year.
So huge shout-out to them at Box Basics.
We're hooking it up.
These things are amazing.
I love the new colorway and they are,
I mean,
they're my favorite training shoes that
I've ever had.
So there's that.
Corey just said a bunch of stuff and
nothing,
some business and some other stuff.
Box basics.
yeah um box basics i've been using for
a long time my first ever board shorts
i bought from box basics probably back in
fourteen two thousand fourteen fifteen two
different at least two different pairs of
metcons when i was still wearing metcons
uh from them and then i discovered that
the the military discount from just buying
stuff straight from reebok so that was
kind of a different thing but
um shout out to them they are quite
awesome they have been around they are in
the space go out support them give them
high fives you see them give them a
hug tell them we said hello um is
a calzone a giant dumpling no no it's
a folded pizza yeah calzone is definitely
a folded it's a full not black and
gum aha joseph ramirez i'm sorry uh
squirrel
are actually not black they look black
they're not black they are green believe
it or not actually lava rock which
apparently is green like a real dark green
but dude they are fantastic i got them
on my feet right now and the inside
looks like cork like on the sole which
is even better i haven't even seen the
inside of mine i need to go check
that out even open the back the bag
i did open a bag i opened a
box and took a look at them they
look really nice um i just haven't i
don't dude whatever right um scott do you
need a head of security for the games
i know a guy who is in need
of an all-expenses-paid trip to the games
who has zero experience in security i
think i'm okay
I don't know if you ever met Scott
before,
but one thing he does not need is
security.
He can take care of himself.
My former bouncer days.
Yeah, absolutely.
A calzone is a meat pie.
I'll go with that too.
I mean,
if a pizza is a pie and there's
meat on your cow and your meat on
your pizza and you fold it in half
and then bake it,
boom papa birch's meat pie i like it
um i don't even know if we want
to get into this so if a hot
dog is a sandwich as a taco a
sandwich too i'm not ever i'm not of
the belief that a hot dog is a
sandwich i don't think a hot dog i
think a hot dog is a hot dog
yeah it is what it is it is
what it is i think the defining
characteristic of a sandwich is that
there's two pieces of bread one on either
side and a hot dog is one piece
of bread that is not split all the
way down the middle i think that's where
the technicality part comes in i'm naughty
uh
uh so brian spins in the chat uh
hey all how was your weekend um better
than yours i'd better say yeah not as
eventful as yours brother not better than
yours not as event not not as eventful
as yours that is for sword yeah i
made my comments about the situation last
night and
it's really hard to make a comment about
something you not are not intimately
familiar with which is why we don't talk
about stuff like that because we're not
we're not all the way in it so
it'd be very hard for scott or me
to make comments about stuff that we don't
have firsthand knowledge of and i'm not
getting in we're not getting involved in
any of that yep
Although the one comment I do want to
make is banning someone from an event
because they were critical of programming
is asinine.
Correct.
I would agree.
Asinine.
And I will – I am a big
proponent of freedom of speech.
I speak my mind on this show,
and I think everybody else should have the
same right to speak their mind without –
unreasonable repercussions now if you make
threats or you use hate speech or
something like that i understand those
topics but if you are just expressing your
opinion you should be allowed to do so
without repercussion and that goes with
any event any event like i don't get
i don't give a damn which one it
is like i think that's completely asinine
yeah i would agree
Yeah, you can add, Meredith,
I see you're adding details.
I don't even need to add details.
You should be able to say whatever you
want.
Right.
And if you choose to ban people who
disagree with you or who have criticism of
you,
that is a contributor to why the games
will never grow.
it is it is what it is and
i will stand by that i believe everybody
has the the freedom of speech to say
whatever they want to say yep moving right
along it is games week it is um
i have a little bit of a conundrum
oh
So I don't know if you saw,
but Tyson Bajan is going to be at
the CrossFit Games this year.
I did.
I did.
Are you going to fanboy completely and
have a small heart attack?
Do we need to have an A?
Pair down.
Do we need to have somebody with an
AED nearby whenever y'all inevitably run
across each other?
So here is the conundrum.
Right?
I love the Chicago Bears more than I
love...
Anything but my wife and daughter.
Right.
We've had this discussion.
Right.
Got it.
He is a quarterback for my team,
and I am so excited that he is
going to be there.
At the same time,
my two co-hosts are going to be competing
at the Masters CrossFit Games.
So now I have this pickle.
Yeah, but I mean,
they're not going to be competing the
entire time.
Yeah,
I don't know how long he's going to
appear, though.
I love when people say stuff like,
I don't know how long he's going to
appear,
as if he's doing some sort of magic
trick that we don't know about.
Well,
I think he's doing like a meet and
greet.
in vendor village is kind of what I
kind of understand.
That's what we need to do is a
meet and greet with,
because that way you can just stand in
line like this, like a little kid,
just kind of bouncing back and forth.
I'll get my picture with you.
I'm going to get,
I'm going to go talk to the Chicago
bears quarterback.
I'm picking on you, Dick, but there's,
I'm trying to think.
If there's like somebody I would run
across that I would be fanboying that much
about.
And very few people come immediately.
Like nobody comes immediately to mind,
right?
So I get it.
Well,
if I'm going to be completely honest,
like I would fanboy more for a few
of the starters on the Bears.
Sure.
It's just Tyson's connection with CrossFit
and what we do here every day and
the Bears together is like a double
connection.
Right.
It's very specific at that point.
Ladies will make it back next year.
Tyson is a once in a lifetime chance.
Once in a lifetime,
just because there's connection to the
space that we are also in.
He's going to be around some more.
Having said that,
whether or not he's still on the bear
in a couple of years, maybe, maybe not.
What I will say is,
this is a good segue, Joseph.
Yeah.
Because yesterday, I think it was,
Monster Games put out a post saying,
And I'm going to share my screen.
I have been very vocal about my thoughts
on this year's programming at the Masters
CrossFit Games.
Although the final event is finally a good
event.
Yeah, the final looks okay.
Yeah, I do like that.
The one that only two divisions get to
do.
So I will add that caveat,
but I do like that event.
I think it is interesting.
So Masters CrossFit Games, or not,
I'm sorry, Monsters.
Monsters Games.
Masters at Monster put this post out that
said,
we love our Masters so much that we
decided to release their individual
workouts a day early.
They did.
I don't know if that's a shot at
someone else missing the deadlines on a
frequent basis.
As a reminder,
the winner of each Masters division will
earn opportunity to compete at the title
for the first ever Masters World Fitness
Champion at the World Fitness Project
Finals in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Correct.
They have how many events?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
eight, nine.
Nine events.
Nine events at the Monster Games that
Corey is going to this weekend.
He gets to do three more events than
all but two of the divisions at the
Masters CrossFit Games.
yep is that not the most in asinine
thing you've ever seen in your life
knew we were going to have several events
we had several events last year right i
wasn't expecting nine now having said that
i'm gonna put a little caveat on this
one of them's a forty yard dash like
we're doing a combine there's a there's a
broad jump hold on there's a broad jump
it's a forty yard dash um uh vertical
leap and whatever the other part is so
the four of the yes this right here
the show up the five ten five show
The four of those are worth a hundred
points.
That's twenty five points each.
Having said that,
it's still keeping us busy.
All day.
But those four are one of the nine.
Correct.
So really, it's thirteen different.
We have thirteen scores.
Yeah.
We have thirteen scores.
It is.
It's not a good look.
And Monster Games did this, you know,
they did it on purpose.
Dude, as soon as it said,
go back to the first slide where it
just says Masters at Monster and they put
it out yesterday.
One hundred percent.
That is a shot across the bow.
Nine individual scores,
thirteen total tests.
That is it.
That is one hundred percent a shot across
the bow.
And in the lead-in paragraph, right?
Like, hey, as a reminder,
if you finish first in your age group,
you're going to get an opportunity to go
compete in Copenhagen if you'd like to.
That's another,
that's shot two across the bow.
That's technically two warning shots
across the bow.
That they are doing a master's world
fitness champion.
Yeah.
So this is an avenue that I think
that World Fitness Project could actually
overtake the games.
It's just getting the top athletes to
participate.
This is a great first start,
I'll say that.
This is a great first start.
It is.
I would like more details as far as
the, if we win, like,
do we get a registration or are they
going to,
because I'm gonna tell you right now,
I can't afford to fly to Copenhagen and
stay in Copenhagen and be there for
however many, you know,
however many days it is.
And it's going to be at Christmas time
again.
Like I'm not doing,
I got an eight year old dog fitting
to be nine.
I'm not doing that.
Aside from, you know, wife, family,
all of that good stuff.
Having said that, if it is a flight,
hotel room, and registration fee,
and I win and I get all of
that, right?
Because let's be honest, they have money,
plenty of it, right?
And they're only doing the winners,
which narrows that field down a whole lot.
So is it that?
Is it one thing?
Is it the other?
Who knows?
But...
It's a real good way to get...
And I know we've said this a hundred
times.
It's a real good way to get the
people who pay for the majority of what
we do in CrossFit to go and look
at this other thing that's taking place in
Europe.
So what I'm... My biggest beef with...
I have two big beefs with the Masters
games.
One is...
We've gone from nine events in twenty
twenty four to eight events in twenty
twenty five to now six or seven events
in twenty twenty six.
We have cut the field down.
We have.
We have an exclusive venue for them now.
And.
Three of the events are less than three
minutes.
So why are we running out of time
to only do seven events?
I don't understand it.
And I see like the cost of things
the spin is bringing up.
They're getting less money this year.
I don't know how much more cost you're
incurring.
I think Brian's talking about World
Fitness Project has less money this year
than they had last year.
Okay.
Yeah.
Rambler, yes.
Monster Games is the same time as
CrossFit.
You cannot blame the scheduler of Monster
Games because they are on the week they
have always been on.
We have been, yeah.
I went last year.
It was the same week last year.
It's been that week for quite some time.
The games moved up.
The games moved to their spot.
Yeah.
What nothing they could do about that.
Which, fine.
I mean,
they are also going to have a big
area for us set up to be able
to watch the games while we're there.
So, like, if you have to be,
you know, at the venue for however long,
and they're going to have a TV, something.
I mean, again,
details on that were kind of sketchy,
but they definitely said that we were
going to have somewhere to be able to
watch the games while we were there
competing.
So, cool.
Pretty excited about that.
And we've kind of talked about that.
Corey goes to the Monster Games every
year.
He's bummed that he can't watch the games
kind of exclusively and do Monster.
Yep.
Because they are at the same time.
But Monster was put in a pickle because
they are at the same venue every year
at the same time.
Well,
they just moved to this venue last year.
But even then,
it's been the same week for quite some
time.
So...
But I think they plan ahead and reserve
well in advance.
Again, dude, one more time.
Jason Ansley, hell of a dude,
has his shit together.
Period.
End of story.
All the communication we've gotten from
Monster Games has been either well in
advance, far enough in advance.
It's usually way more information than we
absolutely need.
I can't say enough good stuff about him.
Joey Perez says,
that'll actually be fun to watch with the
crew you're competing with.
Everybody standing around watching the
games,
it will be like a watch party that
will be probably pretty fun.
Yeah.
It's going to be awesome, dude.
Caliclair says,
Talking about pickles, better be dill.
Of course.
Ortega said he wants a pickle.
I know.
Because I said it put them in a
pickle.
It did put them in a pickle.
And as you know,
I am a pickle addict.
I have at least a pickle a day.
I mean, ain't nothing wrong with that.
I tried.
I was going to, speaking of pickles,
because we like to go off the rails
at all times.
I have been eating Klassen pickles about a
pickle a day, right?
Sure.
Last night I'm like, hey,
I'm going to get some Grillo's.
I'm going to give them another shot.
They were out of them.
That's God telling you to stay in your
lane.
Yeah.
So back to the Klassen.
Stay in your pickle lane there, homie.
Yeah.
uh judy reed bread and butter are greater
than dill i don't mind a bread and
butter pickle judy but it is not going
to outdo a dill pickle let me tell
you something the only kind of pickles i
really don't care for that much are sour
like straight up sour pickles it's just
too much love them it's just too much
for me and then uh like a straight
up sweet pickle because that's also like
too far in the other direction but
Kosher.
Kosher dill.
Bread and butter.
Spicy.
Hot.
Bring me all of them.
I don't like sweet pickles.
No, I don't like sweet pickles.
Not at all.
I just don't want a sweet one.
Picklesburg was this past weekend.
I used to love Picklesburg.
I have no idea.
It is a festival in Pittsburgh.
Oh.
I'm assuming for pickles?
It is.
How about that?
How about that?
I am sharp, son.
Look, you can't get much past me.
Merch,
is that what you did for your birthday?
These two words should not,
pickled okra should not be in the same
sentence.
Dude, have you ever had pickled okra?
I'm
Okra, so sometimes I like okra,
sometimes I don't.
It is one of those things that if
not prepared correctly,
goes south quickly.
Sure.
Have you ever had pickled okra?
I probably did when I lived in
Tallahassee.
Dude, pickled okra's good.
Do you like a Bloody Mary?
I love a Bloody Mary.
Make you a Bloody Mary with some pickled
okra.
Trust me.
Judy Reed, and she lives up, well,
I say up the street,
but it's a little more than up the
street for me.
Have you seen that pickle company at the
local farmer's markets that always has
fifty plus people lined up?
I have heard so many good things about
that pickle person who picked some peppers
and pickled them.
Yes.
I was hoping that's where you were going.
But I don't like people in crowds.
So it's hard for me to stand in
line fifty deep unless it's Tyson Bajent.
I could not possibly imagine staying
behind fifty people deep to get a pickle.
They ain't that good.
There's no pickle on the planet that's
worth my time to stand there for that
long.
You don't have to deal with the public
and being outside in the public.
No thanks.
Gherkin's great with sharp cheddar,
pita chip.
dab of spicy mustard taste buds have a
party in your mouth so hexi lover family
recipe family recipe from what i from like
my mom's mom shredded dill pickle shredded
extra sharp cheddar cheese
And then mayonnaise or Miracle Whip,
whatever your preference is,
mix it together, put it on a cracker.
You will love me forever for that.
Simplest recipe ever and phenomenal.
Always at the Christmas dinner as an
appetizer.
That doesn't sound terrible.
uh i've always won why put the red
dye for pickled eggs or sausage i don't
get no clue no clue i love the
conversations you'll have it's so
refreshing it's refreshing for us too judy
because we have no idea what what we're
going to talk about
anybody ever wondered if we were on script
or not there's no script to have so
that ought to answer that uh miracle whip
creator can also go stub his toe daniel
i or her i don't know i don't
know if we can be friends anymore miracle
whip is far superior than mayo i don't
i have no preference i'm not a big
i'm not a big either way fan unless
i'm making potato salad yeah i put miracle
up and everything i do have a slight
allergy to some mayonases so that does
kind of influence my decision down here
there's blue plate uh mayo which the the
factory i guess whatever like it's made
down here so that's all anybody ever used
growing up but uh oh i can't wait
to be a fatty and eat while watching
the fittest workout understandable um yeah
i uh there's some mayonnaises that uh i
get the the baja blast when i eat
it so
yeah it's not good the one we were
doing the one you brought up at the
beginning of the show yeah yeah got it
got it anyway yeah uh i fly out
thursday morning that baja blast right
there that's the baja blast we're talking
about yep yeah joey has the same issue
apparently
oh so uh just for everybody's information
uh jamie flew out this morning bright and
early she drove to grand rapids last night
caught that flight out to san jose carolyn
is driving down today so they'll be there
and ready for action tomorrow um i'm
flying out wednesday morning
I'll be in the air during this show
time,
but I'm going to try to do something
from there every day from somewhere.
I thought about doing a suite,
but then I had second thoughts about that,
and I'm just going to do it from
like a travel lodge down the road.
There from the Motel Six.
Got to leave a light on for you.
Yeah.
Is anyone going to share their Flow login
password kind of like the new Netflix?
I don't think you can.
So...
we're trying to figure that out here at
the, at the house.
Cause I got mine re-upped and, uh,
I sent my password and I'm going to
go ahead and put that out here.
Password login to one of my friends.
And then I was watching your show from
last night,
this morning when somebody mentioned that
it's probably,
you probably won't be able to do it.
So I just, I let B know,
I was like, Hey man, look,
supposedly only one person can be logged
in at a time,
but that seems kind of,
Maybe it is true.
I have absolutely no idea.
So during Legends,
if both devices were on the same IP
address, it was fine.
But from my understanding is if the two
devices are on separate IP addresses,
it will not work.
That's what Google has to say about it.
That's what was explained last night.
so elite uh rambler you cannot stream
anything from the games no please do not
understand that oh please do not not
understand that they have implemented the
core and pepper law yeah um there's no
streaming allowed from the games or you'll
be escorted from the building
yep so what you just said seems to
be accurate if you're both watching from
the exact same physical location strictly
monitor streaming off locations will
restrict actress if they are internet uh
different yeah so they gonna get their
money out you you cannot stream while live
competition is going on
You can't go to the ranch.
Yeah.
Nobody can go to the ranch.
But all I am guessing is if he
goes to the ranch for the ranch
experience,
you can stream that all you want hanging
out at the ranch.
Right.
But if there are competitors there
competing, you cannot broadcast that.
Yeah,
somehow I doubt that the ranch experience
is going to be going on at the
same time as their individual events.
I could be way off,
but that seems like it would be the
logical thing to not have those two things
going on at the same time.
So, yeah,
like in the media stuff that I've gotten
this weekend, I can talk live, I can...
take pictures,
but I cannot stream during the
competition.
Unless I'm like if I'm outside the arena,
I can talk live.
I just can't do it while the action
is going on around me.
So
Which I mean,
it is an exclusive broadcast partner with
flow.
So, yep.
And that means to me that flow is
paying for this.
Correct.
And therefore flow is saying we're paying
for this.
We want return for our investment.
Therefore nobody else can stream.
Yeah.
And then you,
I don't even think you can put up
your own video for four, eight,
Yeah, didn't you say something last night,
like you can go live,
but not while the event's happening?
I think as I read it more last
night,
I think it's you can take your own
video,
but you cannot show it for forty eight
hours after the conclusion of the event.
then they have like they'll have clips
available to the media to use like say
i do a podcast i want to show
something from the event i can use that
bank but i have to watermark it with
flow elite oh so i mean it's way
different than it has ever been in my
time going to the crossfit games so i
mean if that's the case then that seems
like they are
Pretty well invested at this point.
I mean,
between that and them throwing money at,
you know,
individual performances and whatnot,
you know,
injecting money into the games itself.
I mean, good for them.
Good for them.
So Trent says,
"'Forty-Eight Hours' is a little lame."
I don't really think so.
If they're paying money,
they earned that right to show that.
Because I have access to the warm-up area.
If I interview Amy Kringle,
I can put that up because that's not
the competition floor.
Does that make sense?
It do.
I just cannot show the competition floor
until "'Forty-Eight Hours' after."
I wonder if you can describe what's going
on.
Yeah, I'm allowed to talk about it.
Probably not while it's happening.
You're right.
I get what you're saying.
You can't be like,
Enrique Garrard is in the lead.
You can't do it like a baseball live
broadcast,
like a radio broadcast or whatnot,
just trying to describe exactly what's
going on without anybody being able to see
it.
So I'm assuming the forty eight hours
thing is probably for them to be able
to edit and put out their own packages
before anybody else does,
which is what they're paying for.
Like we're streaming it.
Yeah, you guys can put out your stuff,
but give us two days because we're going
to put out we're going to put out
our own stuff first.
Good luck capturing new CrossFit casual
fans.
You're not going to catch them on YouTube
either because the algorithm is only going
to send the games to those people who
watch fitness or CrossFit videos.
Correct.
As opposed to when people are...
I've been saying the same thing for years.
Every time the game rolls around and
there's breaks in the action and they show
us advertisements for CrossFit
Boxes like for, for affiliates.
It's like trying to sell ice to Eskimos.
Like, Hey man,
the reason I'm watching this is because I
do CrossFit.
Like I don't need to see a video.
I don't need to see an advertisement for
that.
You want to advertise something to me?
Cool.
Advertise something to me that I might
actually sell or buy, excuse me, you know,
whatever that, whatever that might be.
But I don't need to,
I don't need to, I'm aware of,
of affiliates.
You're you're.
Does Flow Lead have immediate playback
rewind?
I doubt I'll get to watch much of
it straight through live.
So one thing I know for sure is
if you have it on and you pause
it,
you can come back and start from that
spot and go forward.
Once it's over,
they do try to get it up as
quickly as possible,
but it'll probably be an hour or two
after the event.
Yeah, I mean,
it takes a little while for it to
get up.
But now the founder said in the future,
the plan is to break it up into
events.
Right?
And it will have like event one as
its own separate thing to watch after
event two will have its own separate
thing.
But this year,
it's probably just going to be one long
stream,
which is what it's been forever anyway.
I mean,
if you go back and watch anything from
last year,
it's like a three and a half hour
broadcast at a time for whatever event so
It's not really anything changing.
It's just going on a different platform
and it costs you a couple of dollars.
Easy day.
Yeah.
Yeah, Ortega's right.
It's like BTS type video.
You can do all of that over the
weekend.
Right.
Anything that's not being shown on Flow
Elite,
you can take video of and put up.
It's just...
You can take video of Ortega fixing his
mustache with his mustache wax,
making it good and curly and whatnot.
Take video of Joseph making tacos on the
sidelines.
Not a big deal.
We can do all that.
You just can't show what's going on live
on the floor.
Meg driving the taco truck while Joseph's
cooking in the back.
A hundred percent.
Can do a ride along, all that.
Yeah.
Corey needs to see title on all PM
ads.
Got it.
We don't take Tylenol PM, Ed.
We use Thirdsy.
Because it's the best sleep and recovery
tool in the business.
Just like how you gave the question, Ed.
I like that, not what I said.
And you can get fifteen percent off that
recovery tool by using code Jazzy at
checkout at Thirdsy.com backslash Jazzy
and get fifteen percent off your video.
uh what making tacos on the comp floor
then you are a talented son of a
let me tell you something joseph if you
got that kind of access we need to
know how you got it seriously like i'm
gonna call garrett right now and be like
so joseph's making tacos on the floor on
the comp floor and she's gonna be like
the are you talking about oh yeah and
ortega's right as long as the competition
is not live
Maybe that's what they'll do in between
events is that Ramirez is going to be
out there with a taco demo.
And then I'll be beside him with a
taco gun and I'll shoot him into the
crowd.
Who wants a taco?
Yes, that is fantastic.
See, we have all the marketing ideas.
Get with us, CrossFit.
Honestly, we can help.
We can help.
Oh, that's fantastic.
I want a taco cannon.
We need to make a taco cannon.
Taco cannon.
That is goal number one for the offseason.
A hundred percent taco cannon.
We start on designs next week.
I got, look, Monday, I'm just,
it's a travel day.
Like I leave in the morning,
I'll be back in New Orleans,
New Orleans at like noonish,
something like that.
The rest of the day,
I have nothing else to do.
My wife's going to be in Biloxi.
So like I can start plans for a
taco cannon Monday.
Shouldn't be a big deal.
Have you ever made a potato gun?
Not recently.
Cause I'm thinking like when I was a
bouncer at a bar in our spare time,
we took PVC pipe, a,
an ignition for a barbecue grill.
Yep.
and either hairspray or...
Hairspray works pretty good,
or used to work pretty good.
They took a lot of the stuff that
made it flammable out.
You could probably do it.
If you can get some old Aquanet, man,
it'll shoot a potato real far.
Allegedly.
Yeah.
oh allegedly we used to we i kid
you not man we used to go outside
of the the bar and we would shoot
this potato gun for fun wow because bars
don't get busy till ten and your shift
started like seven so you're like at least
yeah right and so you're sitting out there
and we're shooting this potato gun and
about three quarters of a block away was
a church
We launched one one night,
and it was headed right for a stained
glass window.
Oof.
And we are all like shit and bricks.
Everybody's like...
We do not want to piss off the
Lord.
Yeah.
And thank goodness it just did like a
belly dive right before it got to the
church.
That's fantastic.
No, I have not built a potato gun...
Let's see.
I'm forty nine.
So I think the last time I was
like either twenty four, twenty five,
something along those lines.
And FYI,
if you don't have fairly decently thick
PVC pipe,
you will crack it if you use it
several times in a row.
Don't ask me how I know that.
So ever since we brought Vicky on,
you mean you mean the one day?
She's been sick.
She's sick as a dog.
I'm picking on her.
But she's sending me graphics,
which I wish she was here to pull
up.
To actually pull up.
So I don't know if you can see
it.
Can you see the taco gun?
Yes, I can.
Taco cannon right there, baby.
just like a t-shirt gun.
Matter of fact,
you would probably have to wrap the taco
in a t-shirt for somebody actually be able
to catch it because otherwise,
you know what you'd be better off with?
A burrito gun.
And the Daniel Arnson Award.
Yep, that is the Daniel Arnson Award.
Because otherwise,
if you just put a taco in there,
hard or soft,
soon as it comes out like meat's gonna
go one way tortillas gonna go the other
way you have lettuce all over the place
like it's just not gonna end well but
if you either wrap it in a shirt
so now you got a free shirt and
a taco dude and you're probably gonna have
to do laundry quickly yes sure um
Did Vicky eat the lettuce?
We don't know for sure.
We're not real sure.
I don't think she's a Taco Bell person.
She does not strike me as a Taco
Bell person.
But she has either that or she has
a sympathy sickness.
Yeah.
It's entirely possible.
She thinks it's from blackberries.
And I thought the seeds were the worst
part.
Yeah,
this is that's way worse than just getting
a seed a random blackberry scene.
Sounds terrible.
Biggie.
That's how we'll send out Clydesdale
shirts, free taco juice stains.
No extra charge.
Speaking of the shirt smells like taco.
That is all right.
A little bit of fire sauce.
Yeah, man.
Speaking of the shirts.
i got notification they are being they're
with ups oh okay so i am less
and less hopeful that i'm gonna have them
before i hop on a plane on wednesday
since we're at monday that sounds like
they're with the lord the t-shirts are
with ups
we know how long your new shoes took
to get to you so fun fact talking
about my new shoes so bernard ordered some
the same day that mine got shipped okay
same same company ordered ordered them
from box basics he got the easy muhammad's
i got these um they shipped mine dhl
they shipped his ups they shipped my dhl
with finishing by the post office right
they shipped his ups
So we were in a race like the
entire time as to who was going to
get there first, whatever.
So Friday morning,
I got a notification, hey,
your package is out for delivery with the
mail.
And I was like, cool.
Bernard sent me one,
and his was supposedly still in Baton
Rouge at the UPS hub or whatnot,
which is like,
twenty minutes from our house.
I said, let me explain something to you.
I said,
the United States Postal Service wins a
race versus UPS.
The whole world is going to stop.
That's not going to end well,
because that's not how this usually goes.
well all day long like he would go
check it every once in a while they're
still in baton rouge they're still in
baton rouge they're still in baton rouge
until they showed up at his house at
like five thirty in the afternoon and they
still said that they were in baton rouge
with ups and i'm saying all that to
say this it says yours with ups but
according to ups themselves they still
have bernard's shoes in baton rouge and he
wore them saturday yeah
my hope to take them with me to
san jose is dwindling it as we speak
right um but if not i will have
them when i get back and we can
i can ship probably not via potato gun
yeah real close to scott's house judy reed
david reed i can probably potato gun their
shirts to them
Yeah,
or at least get close enough to their
house to potato gun their shirt to them.
Yeah, I could drive by their shirts.
I will fly to Columbus just to do
that.
That sounds like fun.
Yes.
There's a lot of...
I don't even want to get into it,
man.
I'm so tired of saying the word Flow
Elite.
Yeah, no thanks.
They are – Seventy-five percent of the
events are going to be on Flow Elite
for free.
Literally seventy-five percent.
You only have to log in for twenty-five
percent of them.
Correct.
Unless you want to watch Masters, Teens,
and Adaptive.
There you're going to have to log in.
In which case,
it's still the same price and you get
a whole lot more stuff that you can
pick from the watch or not.
You get the twenty five percent plus plus
one hundred percent of the other three
divisions of the masters,
the adaptive who you never see in the
adaptive go.
It is something to see because those dudes
are animals.
I used to love to watch them in
Madison, bro.
I've seen.
highlights videos obviously i haven't got
a chance to see him in person but
shout out to the adaptives those dudes are
absolute animals if you're a coach to see
how they scale and modify for adaptive
athletes is a sight to behold like i
didn't know you could flip a
It is crazy what they do to modify
for them to allow them to compete.
Just watching the lower extremity people
snatch with a barbell in their lap and
just... Yeah,
they don't get the luxury of hip drive.
No.
It's amazing, dude.
A lot, yeah.
Dude, the adaptive are so good.
I took pictures last year and video and
bro,
I cried like five times on the first
day.
Yeah.
it's amazing to watch um and i would
say when they were in madison they got
more people in the stands than the teams
did i'm just saying everybody dogs on
masters and adaptive and and teens the
teams need fixed man because they they do
not nobody stays in the arena for teams
unless you have a family member on the
team correct
or you are a one hundred percent all
out nerd because like Jamie never left
Jamie I I'm a nerd and I would
watch about seventy five percent of the
teams Jamie watched one hundred percent of
the teams she's that much of a nerd
I like the teams it helps that I
knew my entire team last year and the
year before that
not twenty twenty four but the year before
that twenty three when brandon went when
they did the the team thing but i
like the teams i find that they're fun
to watch i am also a huge huge
crossfit nerd when it comes to that stuff
so like if it's on chances are better
than not and i'm free obviously i'm
probably going to watch it whether it's
the adaptives i watch the teens like the
kids go
Was that last year?
And like some of those kids, dude,
they're fit.
It is some shit to see.
Right.
And what?
Seventeen of the sixty athletes came from
the teen division.
Yeah.
Something like that.
Watching the teens and then thinking about
the fact that they're just kids, right?
And if they stick with it,
which a lot of them are nowadays or
trying to stick with anyway,
how good they could possibly be going
forward.
Like,
it just gives you stuff to think about.
I also watched the oldest of the old
in the Masters divisions last year,
the stuff that we could see anyway.
And that stuff is incredible to watch.
Watching the seventy plus get out there
and get on the rig and do pull
ups and whatnot.
Dude, in Alabama,
I cried when the sixty eight year old
woman got her first bar muscle up.
Dude, like I remember that.
That was like I don't even know.
I can't even describe it.
The place erupted.
Yeah, I would imagine.
Like it was it was open affiliate
excitement only ten times the people.
The Masters divisions in Masters
competitions in general,
and this comes from somebody who's done a
lot of them,
is one of the few places where like,
yeah, I want to win,
but I'm also actively cheering for the
people that are in my lane because I
know what they're doing.
I know what they're going through.
I know that they have jobs and careers
and kids and all kinds of shit to
take care of.
And I'll sit around and watch the older
guys, the younger guys than me,
probably the older guys, even,
even more just to see what they can
do with some of them with some seriously
limited mobility with whatever,
but they're still out there and getting at
it.
Like it's,
Again,
I am not your typical CrossFit person.
I will watch pretty much all of it.
All right.
Well, we've been at it for an hour.
Yep.
Time to call it.
We'll be back tomorrow for lunch with
Clydesdale.
And then the rest of the week is
going to be kind of wild and up
in the air.
Yeah.
when are you leaving for monster uh fly
out thursday morning i think i will get
i think i land around noon my time
something like that all right we'll figure
something out we'll do something yeah even
if it's just a quick twenty minute or
updating different things yeah um i'm uh
No,
my wife's going to be using that one.
I was thinking about bringing my laptop,
but I don't think I will.
So anything I do is going to be
live from the phone,
but I'll have my earbuds.
I can't find my other headphones that
actually plug in.
But anyway,
I'll be available is what I'm getting at.
We're probably going to do a little EMOM
code.
We got a whole bunch of people that
are going to be in and around the
area whenever I land,
a little shakeout workout Thursday.
But after that,
as long as I'm not competing online,
actively competing or warming up I am
free.
So yeah,
I'm only looking for you like Wednesday
night, Thursday ish.
Because then Carolyn and Jamie are both
done and they're there.
Yep.
And I've got Joseph and Meg,
maybe I can pull on to do some
stuff.
And who knows,
maybe I pull on Colleen and G for
something.
Yeah.
I mean, they're down.
If they're free,
I'm sure they're ready to rock and roll.
They didn't get a drop of a hat.
All right, guys.
Have a great rest of your day.
We'll see you back tomorrow.
Hope you have a great games week.
Get those meetings scheduled properly,
and we'll see you all tomorrow on Lunch
with the Clydesdales.
I wouldn't wait to get to the editing
room to jazz me up.
I'm already jazzy.
Lunch with the Clydesdale Cowboy in the
saddle.
Lunch with the Clydesdale Cowboy in the
saddle.
Talking to reps,
real life strength in the battle.
From the gym to the screen, yeah,

Lunch with the Clydesdale Cowboy in the
heat.
CrossFit, movies, music on repeat.
Half hour hustle, yeah,
