Half hour hustle, yeah,
we building that brand.
Grab a plate, tune in now,
you part of the fam.
what is going on everybody welcome to
lunch with the clydesdale glad you all
could be here today we got lito we
got vicky we got jason born jesus christ
is jason born got meredith got jody dang
speak speaking of amanda we got something
on yesterday's show okay
i had to share yes please and it
all centered around something very very
important and that is the fig newton oh
i'm all ears so uh the first comment
is corey's hard stance on fig newton had
me dying worth noting i have a massive
fig tree and fig newtons are incredibly
difficult to make
They come up more like fig turnovers,
which are ten thousand percent better than
a fig Newton.
If the fig Newton is improved by ten
thousand percent,
is it something edible for Corey?
Yeah,
I'm going to go ahead and I'm going
to go in.
My grandmother used to have a fig tree
as well, and I would eat figs.
Like by themselves,
I just think it makes no sense as
a cookie.
It's not a cookie.
Ramirez has, look, there it is.
Well, that was my next comment.
I didn't want to jump to that yet.
I wanted to give Amanda her time.
Yeah, no, absolutely.
She is, she is,
she is one hundred percent correct.
Yes.
I love a Fig Newton.
It doesn't need to be improved.
It is perfect.
And it is an amazing cookie.
Now,
just Ramirez says Fig Newton is not a
cookie.
It's a fig bar or a fruit filled
snack.
If you take four Fig Newtons and you
put them in a line where the filling
goes all the way through the middle,
that's all that is.
They took a Fig bar,
cut it into four pieces,
and then called it a cookie.
It's not the same thing.
Listen, it's not a Nutri-Grain bar.
A Nutri-Grain bar is a fruit-filled bar.
Absolutely.
A Fig Newton is not that.
That soft outer...
Outer is a cookie.
That is a cookie stuffed with figs.
Now, I will tell you,
when I was a kid,
this popular cookie in my hometown,
I don't know who thought this up,
but it was called a raisin-filled cookie.
So it was kind of like a sugar
cookie with a bowl in the middle,
and they put raisin goo in the bowl.
That was awful.
Still a cookie.
Still a cookie.
So you put fig goo inside a cookie.
It's a cookie.
Yeah,
but I don't think a fig newton counts.
If you took the middle part out of
a fig newton,
if you took the filling out of it,
would you consider it to be a cookie?
Because I would not.
But if I took a chocolate chip out
of a cookie,
I wouldn't consider the chocolate chip a
cookie.
It's still a cookie.
The chocolate chip by itself?
No.
I'm not talking about the fig.
You take the fig part out.
What do you have left?
You have a sugar cookie.
Mark's done with us.
I'm unsubbing.
This is ridiculous.
Mark's had enough.
Crazy.
Vicky, I love figs.
I love Fig Newtons.
Love bacon-wrapped figs.
Love all things fig.
I have had a bacon-wrapped fig.
It's extremely fancy.
But to be fair,
I could wrap this hat in bacon and
I would eat it.
That's how much I love bacon.
So there's that.
Ken Walters chiming in with Fig Newton
falls into bar category of desserts.
When did bars become a dessert?
As soon as they started making Nutri-Grain
bars.
That ain't dessert.
That's a snack.
Okay.
So is a cookie.
No, a cookie is a dessert.
Not the slow news day.
Just trying to iron out some things from
yesterday.
That's all.
Before we jump into things.
Just trying to wrap some stuff up from
yesterday.
It's fine.
Yeah, that's all.
I love a Fig Newton.
Corey hates a Fig Newton.
Whatever.
Figs are mid, as the kids say.
Come on, man.
I don't like super sweet desserts.
Your Fig Newton is perfect.
It's like just sweet enough to make me
enjoy it.
So if I sprinkled some salt on your
Fig Newton, you'd be like, let's go.
I don't need salt on it.
mean that would make it even don't even
get me into salted caramel because i don't
even get that but oh dude salted caramel
come on and then the last thing i
want to wrap up from yesterday is i
listened to the swamp pop playlist that
you provided for me and it was actually
very relaxing in a bad work day there
you go
Other than doing the butt thing,
I didn't see a huge instrumental
difference between it and other things.
It just is like cool.
What I sent you yesterday was, I think,
like seven songs,
something along those lines.
And I guarantee you,
out of the multitudes of weddings I have
attended down here in South Louisiana,
those seven songs have been played ninety
nine percent of the time.
so anyway speaking of salted caramel you
can still get yours today at thirdsy.com
backslash jazzy that's using code jazzy at
checkout to get fifteen percent off your
order at thirdsy.com so go check that out
they have salted caramel they have
strawberry lemonade both are amazing both
help me sleep both are awesome
you vicky for the segue very nice all
right let's hit a couple uh quick hitters
and then we'll dive into the main topic
for the day hit it and that is
we have the confirmed individuals for the
rebel renegade games happening in about an
hour and a half maybe oh okay um
so this is the women's field.
We have Eileen wars.
We have Matilde, Garness, Var, Thurman,
Mo, Hannah black.
I could keep reading,
but you're most of these names are not
known.
Uh, Evie,
Evie Hollis is the only other one I
really knew of in this field.
They only get one spot.
I think it's Matilde's to, to lose.
Yeah, I would agree to that.
If we go to the men,
you have Max Krieg is there.
Max!
Sven Gienz dropped out of French to do
this one.
And Ben Fowler.
There's...
Keelan Henry.
There's someone else here, though,
that was...
Did you literally just skip over Jason
Dix?
Come on, dude.
Jason Dix is there.
It's Potguider.
Where's Potguider?
He's here.
Here, Ruan.
Ruan Potguider.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Vicky's saying Tiago Luzes.
That's the guy with the face tattoo.
Very scary looking.
Look at Max in South Africa, man.
I love Max Craig.
He is a fantastic human being.
He is a Swifty.
is a proud swifty as a matter of
fact he is one of the most interesting
people i've ever met in my entire life
to have a conversation with and i hope
to god he just does all does all
the things and punches his ticket he works
his ass off and he deserves to go
i love max as well he's been trained
by
one miss uh burger here in town yep
a friend of mine but i think this
is ruan puck guider's competition to win
tiago is pretty fit too max will be
up there though he should he he'll be
in the fight i have no question i
have no doubt about that so i just
hope he does what he can't if i'm
pulling for somebody i'm pulling for max
Seema wants to know if this is a
CrossFit semifinal.
Yes, it is.
Absolutely.
It is the Rebel Renegade Games.
Vicky, let us know.
Teams are actually on right now on the
stream.
Oh, I didn't know they were doing teams.
Yeah,
I think they get one team in too.
But they only get one spot to the
games.
Well, let's go, Maxie.
Max is getting internationalized of late.
Yeah,
he's hitting all the international spots.
He had dinner at least one night with
Brandon and Sammy.
Yeah, he's a good dude, man.
I agree.
He's a great dude.
So yesterday...
mr castro was all over the place so
let's check that out i saved a couple
things so he did a behind the scenes
and with that he was talking about kind
of walking the way the athletes will enter
the stadium
at the sap center okay and with that
i think it's like a marketing thing to
because he they followed him walking out
of the tunnel and then it opens up
to this big arena with all these seats
and the the lights and all that stuff
now no floor anything because they're
still playing hockey or we're playing
hockey or basketball or so i don't know
but anyway hockey ball he does all that
But in that conversation,
this was clipped by Dents.
So I'm going to play this for you.
Sure I am.
History.
Our past.
The legacy of CrossFit.
The legacy of the CrossFit Games.
What is the legacy of the CrossFit Games?
The ultimate test to find the fittest man
and woman alive.
Are you going to pull from old workouts?
Time will tell.
Time will tell.
What's the inspiration this year?
Our history.
So you get it.
He's so cagey, dude.
Time will tell.
That means yes.
Well,
you go on to this long diatribe that
this year is about our history,
this year is about our legacy,
all of that stuff.
Are you going to pull from that?
Time will tell.
Yeah.
Come on, dude.
He's not going to answer a direct
question.
I know,
but he already pretty much answered it by
the way he answered the first part.
Absolutely.
He's trying to be kind of cagey.
Well, I mean, time will tell.
You just talked about the fact that we've
been doing this for twenty years.
Come on, dude.
Yeah.
So I think that was pretty obvious.
Jacob Matthew Seymour says,
suites seem dope.
He did when he walked out, he talked,
there are going to be four floor suites
at the finish line that people can
purchase.
I think I've already purchased.
And then he showed the whole upper ring
are private box suites.
And I think he mentioned in the video,
the full length video,
those may already be sold damn good so
that's awesome so that's that's good news
now if they could sell some seats that
would help but hopefully like as more
people qualify more seats get sold because
now you know who you want to go
support
as the floor gets set.
Yeah.
Well, the field gets set rather.
I would, I would agree.
That's probably going to,
and as you get closer to it,
because the people are waiting, dude,
like every year it happens, right?
They, they, they, they get up close.
There's still seats left.
All of a sudden you can get decent
seats at a ridiculously discounted rate.
And they just go ahead and start,
they start filling up at that point.
So it'll be fine.
So leader said,
wasn't that the inspo for last year back
to classic CrossFit?
I think last year was a forced back
to classic CrossFit because in my opinion,
the board of, excuse me,
the board of directors,
the board of directors didn't want the
liability of outdoor events.
Yeah.
Other than a run.
And so everything was brought inside,
pretty much handcuffing them to classic
CrossFit.
And he had no choice.
He doing it like as if it was
in a gym setting,
just on a larger scale.
Yeah.
So, um,
he always pulls from old workouts to
outside one ranch and two,
he will try to reboot a capital style
workout.
I don't know.
I don't, I'm,
I don't want to be pessimistic about this.
I want to be optimistic about this.
I, I,
Maybe he is inspired.
And if he pulls from old workouts,
so be it.
So what?
Who cares?
Or modifies old workouts.
I mean,
you can only put things together so many
different ways.
We did Murph two years in a row
at the games.
They did Fibonacci two years in a row.
They did Murph two years in a row,
but they switched it up.
That's what I'm getting at.
You can pull from old stuff and then
make it slightly different or different
enough to matter anyway and going from
ginormous big sets to not quite so
ginormous big sets and now everybody's
complaining about the sun.
I would not bitch if Strongman's Fear came
back.
I would not either.
Two-stroke pull.
Pick some stuff, dude.
Some cool stuff.
Something along the lines of Chaos again.
like a chaos two with different movements
and nobody knows what they are.
And we're lining up everybody at the same
time and let them roll.
That was fun to watch, dude.
You don't know what's going on.
You just know who's in the lead.
You can kind of watch people try to
game it and whatnot.
That was fun to watch.
That's one of my favorite events that ever
happened.
Um,
Us Masters Games athletes are getting a
free ticket for Friday only.
If we want to spectate for the other
two days,
we still need to buy a three-day pass,
no discount, nothing.
They did put single-day tickets on sale,
I believe, a couple days ago.
Yeah, last year was the safety games.
They just didn't have anybody in padded
helmets and
full full body pads and whatnot out there
just in case like they were worried to
death about it and i get it like
i'm not mad at him for it it
was still made and you still had some
good races you know the men's field and
especially like it was down to the last
day before jason actually won it so good
on them they may do what they had
right they worked within the confines of
their restrictions and they made it they
made it as good as they possibly could
so
This year,
hopefully that rain is a little bit
loosened a little bit so they can move
forward and do some cool stuff.
It's going to have to see.
Jacob says, no matter what they,
when they return to outdoor risky events,
risky, they will say, oh,
now we forget about the tragedy.
And a subset of people will be butthurt.
You can't worry about those.
No,
but I think what he's getting at is
that it's a vocal subset of people because
they're going to be the first ones on
there going, well,
nobody cares about Lazar anymore.
yeah no everybody's still sad that he's
going dude like nobody's forgotten about
him it's kind of hard to forget about
him at this point so they make noise
and then that gets highlighted because you
can't help but see it on whatever post
that you see everywhere whether it's on
the instagram comments the youtube
comments or whatnot so i i get what
he's saying i personally just try to
scroll past it because it's it you're not
helping anybody at that point
You're complaining to complain again,
like we've been talking about all week.
Those people are there specifically just
to bitch about it because they need
something to complain about because I
don't like the way this is going.
So I'm going to say what I got
to say.
They're the same people who get their
order, get, you know,
fifteen French fries at Chick-fil-A
instead of seventeen French fries at
Chick-fil-A and bring the bag back.
Because I didn't get exactly what I
ordered.
It's the same thing.
Well,
the Chick-fil-A fries are a big waffle
fry.
So if you're missing two of me,
it's a big deal.
I'm just kidding.
What I will say is if I have
a criticism of CrossFit in this regard is
I think sometimes they listen to the vocal
minority.
Yes.
instead of especially the new regime the
newest newer regime hopefully that changes
with the new ceo but and the newer
regime tends to listen to the vocal
minority yeah instead of doing what they
believe is right
And I hope that comes to an end.
And it didn't used to be like that.
And people like us remember when it wasn't
like that.
When they were just like, hey, bro,
this is what we're doing.
Like it, don't like it, cool.
We really don't care.
We're just moving forward.
So many years in a row,
I would hear Boz and Dave and all
these people say,
we changed this because people said this.
And when they say that, I'm like,
that was like,
ten percent of the population were
bitching to bitch.
And you guys dove into something that
wasn't a real complaint.
And when you do that,
those people feel vindicated.
And they get louder, and they're like,
well, we made change.
Yeah, but did you make good change?
No, you did not.
Ninety percent of the time,
that did not do anybody any good.
All it did was pull back the reins,
stifle creativity as far as programming is
concerned,
and just made a worse show for everybody.
Who wants to see that?
um yeah we don't even have to do
that jacob to to i mean no i
see comments all the time it's yeah we
get some of those yeah as a matter
of fact yes vicky listening to the wrong
percent of the voices yes so we talked
about safety and talking about forgetting
lazar
Dave was also doing a,
one of his athlete interviews with Sahir
Maya.
I probably didn't pronounce that
perfectly, but it's fine.
I know we knew you, me.
Um, okay.
And then this,
so he asked swimming comes up in this
interview.
Second question is you mentioned you
finished, um, second to last or,
or almost last on the swim event.
Um,
is swimming another one of your
weaknesses?
Yeah,
that's one of the questions I was going
to ask you if we were swimming this
year.
Have you been working on it?
I was in the pool this morning because
I have a feeling.
She was not in Nepal.
Probably a good training to include
swimming.
That's not a bad idea.
Not a bad idea.
Not a bad idea.
Now, my guess is if they swim,
it's going to be in a pool.
I would one hundred percent agree with
that.
Then I get it.
They're not getting an ocean.
That's not happening.
But.
I'm glad.
Hopefully.
Hopefully.
Hopefully we get back to a pool and
we stop being afraid.
Don't so much that you can do.
We were.
Hmm.
Jacob is telling me how to pronounce it.
Thank you so much.
Sierra, like the country.
Syria.
Meha.
Syria.
The country is Syria.
Syria.
Syria, Meha.
Yeah, I can read too.
Here's the thing, and this just struck me,
okay?
The Capitol, when we did the Capitol,
that was in an open course, right?
They were just running.
somebody comes through because there's a
there's a they're running on a sidewalk
right next to the street um might get
hit by a car just running on the
street gets taken out right there somebody
drunk driver somebody falls asleep at the
wheel and any one of a number of
things gonna happen
They jump, somebody gets clipped, smashed,
boom,
all of a sudden the event's over because
somebody just got hit by a car and
the police had to shut down the entire
course and whatnot.
Do we not run anymore?
Do we not do another outdoor run anymore
forever for the next three years because
somebody on an open course got hit by
a car?
Is that a thing?
Not only will we stop running,
but we're not allowed to drive either.
We're not allowed to drive.
All of us have to Uber now at
every event.
I don't,
that's the overreaction that happens in
those things.
Yeah.
And, and I always,
I always compare it to like a pendulum
swing.
Right.
Last year,
the pendulum swung from what we were doing
all the way to the other side,
to the safety games.
Yeah.
As that pendulum goes back and forth,
it stops swinging as far.
And hopefully you get to the middle of
common sense.
i never like the over the the the
holy the holy crap overreaction it's like
oh that's oh we can't uh we can't
swim anymore okay it's just it's terrible
so joseph has a suggestion just add more
machines yeah just put them on the air
runners after that
At Torian,
Royce wasn't a hundred percent confident.
The ruck wasn't going to be entirely shut
down for the runners,
according to the most recent podcast.
Got to accept some risk and logistical
impossibilities.
Everyday life, you assume risk.
Every day you wake up.
Yep.
You get on the road,
you get hit by a bus.
Boom.
Your day's over with.
It does not matter.
I know people,
especially once you getting into my age
group and Scott's age group where you bend
over to pick something up off the floor
and it's not even heavy and you throw
your back out because it happens.
You have to accept some level of risk.
It has to be there.
It's inherent in everything you do.
And then when you start trying to look
for the fittest on earth,
that level goes up and everybody that's
there at the games
no matter what level you're at,
assumes that level of risk when they show
up and assumes that, hey, man,
something crazy might happen.
Agreed.
Rich fell off a rope.
He wasn't two feet in the air.
He wasn't four feet in the air.
He was at the top of the rope
when he fell all the way down and
landed on that freaking Home Depot bucket.
Pat and Matt fell off the top of
the cargo net.
If I sneeze wrong,
I'm out for a week.
Yeah.
CrossFit emerged with an undertone of
acceptance of risk.
People still crave the refreshing sense of
balanced view on risk versus reward.
Yeah.
Dave's background is military.
The U.S.
military has zero common sense and teaches
that why do we think we have to
have it at the games?
It's not Dave's common sense.
Guys, get off of Dave.
All of this was mandated by the board
of directors.
We want to think Dave is the end-all
be-all to this games thing.
He answers to people.
He's been doing it all his life.
He's in the military.
It's always somebody higher up.
Always somebody higher up.
Yeah, Mark's completely right.
CrossFit started out as Metal AF.
It's what drew people in.
Dude, I...
Honestly,
like when I walked into a CrossFit gym,
it was so different, so refreshing,
so competitive.
So what I was missing in my life.
Yeah.
All of those things.
The first.
workout I ever did where I went where
I was hooked like all the way in
I don't remember what it was but I
remember laying on the ground trying to
breathe sweating profusely heart beating
out of my chest and thinking I want
more of that
Whatever that was, I need more of that.
It's like, uh,
Neo in the matrix when he, when they,
the first time they,
they upload something to his brain and
he's like,
I know Kung Fu and he's sitting there
and he comes out of it and Oh,
Mikey likes it.
Yup.
He sure does.
Cause that feels amazing.
And I want to do that again.
I want to push myself again.
I want to,
I don't want to say hurt myself,
but I mean, it hurts.
CrossFit hurts.
It's not a secret.
Larry Young with the Super Chat.
I found JR saying your bias should change
every comp refreshing.
And I'll give kudos to your son, Larry.
I watched his two thousand fourteen
analysis.
I haven't talked about all of the
different games and how every one of the
games had a bias and that.
And he said this.
That's OK.
It's OK for every competition to have a
bias in that sport.
That is sport.
when you are playing football,
you don't know the weather conditions.
You don't know the wind speed.
You don't know a lot of things.
When you're playing golf, hell,
if there's a gust of wind,
your ball could go off into whatever,
right?
Sand traps are not always in the same
place.
The whole location changes.
Everything can have a bias and it's going
to affect the overall overall
the overall outlook and performance of the
athletes at that event.
Yep.
And it's okay.
It's actually a good thing because it, it,
it better prepares you for the crazy stuff
that might happen on a regular everyday
basis.
the more adverse the conditions that you
finish something in,
that you start something in and then
finish something in when you can do it
again.
And because measurable, observable,
repeatable, it's a repeatable part.
And now it's, well,
last time I did this,
it was four hundred degrees outside and
ninety nine percent humidity.
And today it's seventy five and sunny and
breezy.
This should be better.
But I finished it when it was four
hundred degrees and ninety ninety nine
percent humidity.
So it's
you have to be able to get through
all that.
And thank you very much, Larry,
for the super chat.
A hundred percent.
Uh, speaking of the foreign degrees,
Athena wants to know if you got your
fan situation squared, squared away.
Yeah.
Um, it,
so obviously we don't have air
conditioning in our building and all,
we have a very much a metal roof
and the fan is probably fan is probably
a foot and a half.
If that from the metal roof and it
was hot as shit,
it happens from time to time.
It gets overheated.
It shuts down for a little while.
If you just turn it off and leave
it alone, it goes back on.
It's a pretty bad day when your fan
overheats.
yeah it's just because it's just because
it wouldn't where it is in particular a
lot of those big ass fans or like
they have enough ceiling you know for it
to drop down and have enough airflow in
between it where it never overheats and
generally speaking or this happens a
couple times a year um but it's ours
because our ceilings aren't super high
it's so close to that metal roof that
if you got a good hot sunny day
when it's ninety something degrees outside
there's a chance it could overheat
Can't you get a big ass fan for
the floor?
Can you make them?
We had two giant box fans in that
room as well.
And then two other ones on the other
side by the way.
You didn't just say box fan, did you?
Yeah.
I mean, it's not an actual box,
but yeah,
we got two big old fans that we
can roll around on wheels.
They're circle, right?
Yeah, they are.
That ain't a box fan, man.
That's like an industrial fan.
I understand that,
but I don't know what else to call
it.
And we ain't like at grandma's house with
a little box fan in the corner.
No,
but I've done that in my garage before.
Sure.
And what help is that in your garage?
Not a whole lot.
It was more mental than anything else.
You might as well blow on your hand.
Yeah, pretty much.
Ooh, there's a breeze.
One of them Southern Lady fans.
I probably have to have a mint julep
in the other hand.
But anyway.
Is it better to vent out the heat
or have floor fans to move the hot
air?
We have exhaust fans because it's an old
industrial building.
But mostly what they do is make noise.
Like they are loud as shit.
And sometimes people,
it depends on who's coaching.
Sometimes they'll run them.
Sometimes they won't.
And I don't find that they make any
difference whatsoever aside from making it
way louder in there than it needs to
be.
Brux's rolling big-ass swamp coolers are
nice.
They are.
They're expensive, though.
Like, a lot.
Yeah, it's hot.
Everybody hop on the Echo bike.
There you go.
We are the machines.
Machines, baby.
Get on the bike.
You want to get cool?
If you really want to get down there,
you get one of your friends to get
on the bike and fan you.
You just stand there in front of the
bike.
Works well.
Well, I have a one o'clock meeting.
I hate that.
But there's one thing I did want to
leave you guys with.
And it comes with a little story.
When I, you know, I am,
the reason this show is named Clydesdale
is because I'm a larger man.
You big dude.
Right.
And it comes from,
I always wanted to run events.
And back in the day,
some of the running events would have a
Clydesdale division.
Sure.
If you were over two hundred pounds or
two twenty five or something like that,
you could enter the Clydesdale division
and just compete against people like that.
Well,
I would always play pickup basketball.
I loved playing pickup basketball.
But I never got any fouls called on
people playing.
blocking me charging me or whatever
because of my large stature people just
kind of they assume you just knocking
people over yeah right so i found a
guy who is going through the same thing
i did when i was a kid i
love this video by the way and i
and i had to share it so i'm
gonna pull this up
Here we go.
Here we go.
That's his friend.
That's his teammate.
You never, ever, never,
ever celebrate with a Clydesdale.
Here's the thing.
You can.
Don't get airborne.
But the little subtlety,
do you see him blow the kiss before
he hits the three?
That's perfect, dude.
That's perfect.
He juked that dude out of his shoes
and was like, watch this.
I'm going to play it one more time.
Watch for him blowing the kiss.
That is my man.
love it laced it ran back and his
teammates trying to celebrate with him god
bless him it didn't work out well yeah
good stuff good i just had to share
it it just felt like old times on
the basketball court for me uh daniel
arnson wants to know how tall i am
i am five eleven just a shade under
six foot
So, yeah, when I started CrossFit,
that was tall for being a CrossFitter.
Not anymore.
Now we got the hoppers and the sprags
and the peppers and making me look
shorter.
All them big boys.
But when I was rooming with Corey,
there was definitely a difference in our
height.
A hundred percent.
We figured that out day one.
Yeah, pretty quick.
So hanging out with Corey, I feel tall.
Anybody who ever wants to feel tall,
just come stand next to me.
I'm perfectly fine with that.
Seema, me too.
I'm five-eleven and three-quarters.
My doctor says I can't say six feet.
You can be six feet tall, Seema.
It's fine.
You can be whatever you want to be.
It's two-twenty-twenty-six.
You can literally be whatever the hell you
want to be.
It doesn't even matter anymore.
Yeah, when I was in high school,
I tried to say I was six feet.
Oh, speaking about six feet.
So David Johnston,
when he and I met in person or
right before that, when he said,
asking me if the short guys were going
to dominate one of the events at Magic
City.
And I was like, I mean,
maybe I said,
I've been five foot six since I was
fifteen.
He's like, damn it.
He said in my head,
you were six feet tall.
He said,
I just assume everybody's the same height
as me.
And I was like,
I am not the same height as you.
Yeah.
David Johnson is a specimen at six feet
tall.
That dude is carved out of granite.
It is absolutely insane.
He is absurdly strong.
And he's a great dude.
Love that dude.
Daniel is six three.
He used to be too big for this.
Yeah, now you're not anymore.
Not anymore.
Now I just hope for rowing and echo
bike.
That's all.
Well, God, I hate cutting these short,
but I got to go to a meeting.
It's been a hell week, man.
I stopped drinking two and a half years
ago.
This week has me this close to picking
it back up again.
My wife has been about the same amount
of time and every once in a while,
I mean, she's still off from her surgery,
but every once in a while,
like while she's working and she'll text
me and she's like, I need a drink.
I'm like,
you haven't had a drink in two fucking
years.
I don't think you need a drink.
I think you need to relax.
Maybe go take a walk.
Yeah.
Well,
a Bloody Mary sounded really good at nine
AM this morning.
I mean, just saying.
uh same i quit a year and a
half ago and the government is making me
want to drink for the government cement
they're they are forcing it almost i work
for the government i get it that's
fantastic gosh oh yeah um grab a gummy
lower calories lower calories less stress
like it's actually gonna help you recover
and sleep a little bit i mean
Yeah, maybe.
Mark is not wrong.
I drink NAs like an absolute flower boy.
I tell you what, dude, I've had a,
what is it, the Athletic Brew?
That stuff's actually pretty good.
I used to drink a lot of craft
beer,
and the Athletic Brew stuff with no
alcohol is actually pretty tasty.
If I'm going to drink an NA,
I'll just get a Coke.
you know yeah i mean i mean like
let's be honest you know i love beer
and i love like the flavor of it
but if it's not alcoholic back in the
day like i'll i'll just have a better
tasting something i'll go milkshake or
something i started drinking again during
covet after not for
COVID is what helped me get into bourbon
because we had nothing else to do but
work, work out, and drink.
That was literally what me and my wife
did for six months.
It was ridiculous.
All right, you have a meeting.
Yeah, and I'm going to be late.
All right.
