We cover the sport of CrossFit from all angles. We talk with athletes, coaches and celebrities that compete and surround in the sport of CrossFit at all levels. We also bring you Breaking News, Human Interest Stories and report on the Methodology of CrossFit. We also use the methodology to make ourselves the fittest we can be.
Apparently, I am not a man.
We're going to talk about that next.
I love the chase and the hunt and
I set the pace when I'm running.
I always take what I want and I
always give it one hundred.
Don't need a bank, no I'm funded.
Play the game like it's nothing.
I'm always thankful for something.
Don't take for granted, stay humble.
Now wake up!
It's time to look at the enemy.
Look in the mirror if he is no
friend to me.
It's not working out,
maybe it's the chemistry.
It's time to break up.
it's lunch time what is going on everybody
welcome to lunch with the clydesdale we
are back and better than ever maybe
I'm still recovering from the surgery from
last week.
Bear with me as still experiencing a lot
of drainage.
I'm going to go as long as I
can for the next forty five minutes and
do what I can to hang in there.
We did a show last night.
I did have some repercussions from having
to talk so much last night.
So hopefully we can do that today without
as much happening.
Going solo is making it a little more
tenuous,
but we're going to do what we can.
We're going to try to bring you a
show every day this week.
everything is going super well with the
recovery uh just you know some lingering
things that i have to work through um
before i'm able to blow my nose again
and really just kind of empty things out
so
I'm super stoked to be with you.
I wanted to start off today with some
stuff I just learned about within the last
hour.
It was posted to Pat Vellner's Instagram
story.
If you did not see this,
here is what it is.
I don't know if you can see this
very well,
but here's a story of Pat Vellner in
a hospital room getting his chest shaved.
And then on the next slide,
They did a great job with his chest
shaved like so.
And then on the next slide,
and of course,
let me try to do this again.
For some reason, there we go.
All right.
So I'm getting a heart ablation.
I'm okay.
Son of a gun.
I'm getting a heart ablation.
I'm okay.
Do not panic.
If you've been following me at all,
a heart ablation is generally done,
I believe, if you have AFib.
As someone who has suffered from AFib a
couple times in the last couple of years,
One of the things done along the line
to help cure it is to have a
heart ablation.
It's not something that should put him out
for a lengthy period of time,
but it does hopefully keep his heart in
rhythm.
But if you've never had AFib,
it really does kind of take the wind
out of you when you're in it.
and um it makes working out very very
hard um afib is not life-threatening what
is like what becomes the danger from afib
is a stroke um because the blood is
not pumping at a rhythm that makes sense
so it pulls and then it can clot
and then once you get a blood clot
then you are at risk for a stroke
so um
So yeah, I have had AFib twice.
I've been cardioverted twice.
And I'm here now.
Mark Phillips had AFib once.
Got cardioverted and was good to go.
Hasn't returned.
Yeah.
I've been through this a lot.
So it's actually something I'm pretty
familiar with.
Cardioversion is the first technique.
Second is a cardioversion with medication.
And then...
And then there's the ablation.
And then thank goodness we have Shanna,
our resident MD, not AFib necessarily,
could be other arrhythmias.
Okay.
Thank you for the clarification.
But that was on his stories just within
the last hour that that is happening with
Pat Vellner.
So we'll be looking out in the next
few days to see where that goes and
what occurs with that.
And maybe we'll learn more as we go.
But for someone who has been around the
sport for a long time,
when you see something like that,
Of course,
there's general concern for his health and
well-being and our thoughts and prayers go
out to him and his family and hope
that everything came out just fine.
Mark Phillips, yes,
could be just tachycardia.
Yeah.
Again,
I'm experienced with the AFib part of it.
I don't know much else,
but just wanted to share that as it
came out within the last hour.
The cowboy.
Cowboy.
Dude,
I didn't realize how bad you sounded until
I hear you now.
You sound better.
glad i sound better i vocally i sound
i feel better um it's just the drainage
still from the sinus hopefully um
hopefully that like slows down in the next
few days and then thursday i'm allowed to
start blowing my nose so hopefully i can
get that out instead of it being kind
of in there i do like three rinses
a day
of my nose trying to get out as
much as I can um but it's it
just the more I talk the more the
the mucus forms in the sinus cavity so
that's why I'm like tenuous as to how
long I can go today uh Mark says
I kind of look better too well thank
you thank you I had them uh pull
the cheeks up a little bit and I'm
just kidding
Elite athletes at risk for AFib and
dilated left ventricle.
Oh, wow.
Okay.
Nice.
so uh so we have that with the
pat velner news we also had this breaking
within the last hour and a half and
barbell spin and andrew hiller have
already made clips on this uh but james
sprague announced on the savon podcast
today that he would be doing the world
fitness project as it would be silly of
him to not do it since he was
the top contract winner of last season
um and he is actually scaling back his
semi-final season to just one semi-final
and then the wfp and someone that's as
good as james has the confidence that they
can punch their ticket at an event like
norcal use the other time that would have
been a semi-final to punch his ticket um
to compete in the wfp and earn i
believe the hundred thousand dollar
contract he earned uh last season
In addition to that,
this is what he said during that time,
and I don't know if the boys necessarily
knew he was going to say this,
but here it is.
Maybe I'll go do a couple WFP events
this year.
You should.
Come cover me.
Come hang out with me.
I'd love to do it.
I'm the only one out of the boys
doing it.
So I am the only one out of
the boys doing the WFP.
So there you have it.
I don't think that's been confirmed
anywhere else.
The other thing that is odd is if
you watch Jenny's a dense updates this
morning, she talked about that, um,
announcements for signed contracts ended,
uh, January, I believe.
In addition to that,
if you go to the world fitness project,
Instagram page,
James Sprague is not even listed as a
signed athlete for that.
Um,
Um, for that,
he's not even posted as an athlete who
has signed yet.
And he said he is doing it.
Uh,
so there's gotta be a backlog of
information coming out of WFP, but yeah,
We have learned that two of them are
not doing it for three of them are
not doing it for sure through this
conversation and that James is putting all
of his eggs in the NorCal basket.
CJ, I see you say Del Mar.
He is not doing Del Mar.
He is spacing it out so that he
can do WFP tour stop one in Mexico
City and NorCal two.
Because there's enough space between the
two.
And the reason I know that is Savant
said he is streaming NorCal and that they
would be together at that event where
James is trying to punch his ticket.
So keeping it real came to say I'm
not a man can't carry dumbbells.
Yeah,
we're going to get into that in a
second.
Uh, trained all of it's a leak.
Yeah.
I think what we love about James is
he's so open and transparent with us and
tells us what's going on in his life.
But he also, I think leaks information.
Sometimes he's not supposed to because
he's so open and honest and transparent.
So it's one of those, you're like,
you take the good with the bad and
hopefully, hopefully it's not too bad.
Uh, Shanna says that spin.
Yeah.
She has a spin says Madera,
some pepper declined WFP for next year.
Yeah.
It's all based on the interview that James
did with Savon this morning that I was
watching live when he announced it.
Um,
and it didn't take long for both Hiller
and barbell spin to then release
information on that.
So
Yeah,
I believe James said on Boys Interrupted a
couple weeks ago that he has a wedding
to attend the week end of Del Mar
II.
Yeah.
He always drops the tea casually.
He does.
He does.
He's got to be great material for you,
Jenny.
Great material.
Yes, Trish, it is lunchtime.
Lunchtime on the East Coast.
of the united states i know people are
gathering from other places as well so um
the other thing i want to say about
boys interrupted um as a as a bears
geek fan uh tyson bajent was on last
night and i was in heaven getting to
listen to uh the inside knowledge he was
dropping about um
about the bears and their schedule and how
they do things and how strength and
conditioning goes, how, uh,
what resources they have available to the
athletes.
Um, I,
I can't get enough of Tyson Bajan on
these shows because just like
james tyson is very open and transparent
and honest and you get to learn so
much and uh if you are a football
fan at all we don't get the glimpse
into what a day in the life of
a football player is and the fact that
um tyson was able to give this to
us last night just hanging out with some
buddies uh it was really cool and i
really really appreciated it so uh
Andrew Sten,
see Heppner's video teasing competition as
a master, competing as a master.
I didn't see it yet.
I saw the video.
I assume that's kind of what it was.
Uh, but I did not, um,
I did not dive into it.
It's been honestly,
Andrew has just been tough with, uh,
the stints in my nose until yesterday,
just concentrating without my eyes and my
head hurting for a little bit.
Uh,
so I could only do like small little
movements, small little, uh, content, um,
consumption at, at times.
But, uh,
I'm hoping to catch up this week.
Lito says it's tea time in the UK.
There you go.
So let's talk about being a man.
So if you missed it yesterday,
or maybe I don't know when it came
out,
but Andrew Hiller made a video about it
last night that I was watching.
And it was Josh Bridges talking about what
he thinks every man should be able to
do.
And I just want to say,
I think it's ridiculous.
To put no parentheticals around this at
all and just say every man should be
able to do this, I think is absurd.
And so here it is.
I just screen froze the spot where the
list was so we could kind of talk
about it.
And the man test.
You should be able to do a seven-minute
mile run
back squat your body weight for ten reps,
bench press your body weight for ten reps,
which what he's saying there is your back
squat and your bench press should be the
same.
Who the hell benches and squats the same?
That's just absurd.
Do be able to do ten pull-ups,
deadlift one point five times your body
weight for ten reps.
take a sandbag ground to shoulder body
weight.
So pick up your body weight in a
sandbag and put it to your shoulder.
Uh,
thirty pushups unbroken and then swim five
hundred meters in under ten minutes.
So I was like,
so I was thinking about this as he's
going through this list as like in,
in my peak condition in my life,
how would I fare during all of this?
And I wouldn't, I wouldn't do well.
I wouldn't, I just wouldn't do well.
Now, like in my peak swimming condition,
could I run a seven minute mile?
I could back then.
Could I back squat my body weight ten
reps?
I probably could.
But I don't think I could bench press
my body weight for ten reps at that
point in time.
Maybe, but probably not.
I could do the ten pull-ups.
The deadlift would have been tough for ten
reps, maybe.
The sandbag would never have happened.
Um, thirty push-ups probably,
and I could do the swim.
But that is at my, like,
peak when I was training five hours a
day.
That is not like an everyday person or
an everyday man.
Uh, Trish, yes,
if you can do all this,
it makes you a man,
according to Josh Bridges.
There are no parentheticals.
Uh, there are no parameters.
If you can do this,
you are a man.
Um...
Andrew says,
so does this mean when you hit a
certain age, you're no longer a man?
Or is this for a specific age range?
Andrew, he gave no age ranges.
It was all men.
So at a certain age,
if you can no longer do this,
you are no longer a man.
Lito says, is there a woman test too?
I do not believe there is a woman
test.
This was just Josh Bridges.
He does not give an age range.
It's.
Eighteen or eighty.
You are still judged the same according to
Josh on this man.
This man test.
Corey says sorry Lito men only.
Well if Lito can do all this then
she's a man.
That's what it says.
Yeah.
John George,
his mustache has taken over his brain.
Eighteen to eighty blind,
crippled or crazy.
Yeah, all that.
I mean, let's be honest,
if he's doing this for content creation,
there's been videos made about it.
I'm sitting here talking about it now.
Maybe he's getting what he wants out of
this to have a discussion.
And do I think there should be a
test for what means fitness for a human
being or a man or maybe some parameters?
Yeah, I think there is some of that.
By making it so absurd like this, though,
it's become a content topic that we're all
talking about.
And so he's probably accomplished his
goal.
Not everything that you put out there has
to be
When you're creating content,
people are trying to get likes and views
and all of that stuff.
It's creating that.
It's doing all the stuff you wanted it
to do.
CJ says, it's not that absurd.
The only absurdity is not putting an age
limit on it.
Yeah,
and I think it's a great goal for
if you want to be considered fit for
the rest of your life.
I think maybe it's a great list for
that.
I do think the same weight of bench
press and squat is a little off.
And I think that having bench press and
push-ups, both based on body weight,
is a little bit off.
I think there could be some refining to
this for sure.
But I think it could be like a
good discussion is if you can do all
this, you're pretty fit.
And that's a good thing moving forward in
life.
And what I wanted to talk about is,
as I was watching Hiller go over this,
the whole time I'm thinking is when I
was a kid back in the eighties,
which was what, a hundred years ago,
my high school had what they called the
gold shirt test.
And basically what it was is,
When you got to high school,
there were ten things that they tested you
on.
And based on how you finished on those
tests, you could earn a white shirt,
a blue shirt, a red shirt,
or a gold shirt.
Gold meaning the best,
white meaning that you didn't hit any of
the top levels, blue third, red second.
for a lot of people in my high
school,
that became a goal because if you earned
a gold shirt at my high school,
your name went up in the gym forever,
right?
Forever and ever go back today.
And if you earned a gold shirt in
And I know that my phys ed teacher
at the time was looked at as this
was a really cool concept and was brought
to a lot of different conferences around
the country to talk about this and talk
about what it means and what it would
do.
And back then,
it was like if you could – so
pull-ups was a test.
If you could do eight unbroken pull-ups,
you got a blue shirt.
If you could do fourteen unbroken
pull-ups, you got a red shirt.
And if you could do twenty unbroken
pull-ups, you got a gold shirt.
And then to earn a gold shirt,
you had to earn the gold level of
every single standard.
And there were sit-ups.
There was treading water.
There was underwater swim.
There was running.
I think it was a four hundred instead
of a mile.
It's been eons ago,
so I don't remember all the...
I know rope climb was one.
If you could climb to the top of
the rope, you got a blue shirt.
If you could climb to the top of
the rope without legs,
you got a red shirt.
If you could go up and back down
and then back up halfway was a gold
shirt and rope climb.
And the reason I remember that distinctly
is that is the only thing I didn't
earn a gold shirt in when I was
in high school.
And it prevented me from getting my name
on the gym wall forever is I could
not do...
the second ascent up the rope halfway to
get my gold shirt.
And it was, it was,
it was fierce competition in my school
because you wanted to earn it.
You got to wear that color in your
gym class.
Um, and it was a status symbol.
Like I earned,
if you earned blue or above on everything,
you got to wear a blue shirt.
If you earned red or above on everything,
you got to wear a red shirt.
And if you got gold,
you got to wear gold shirt in the
gym class, uh, forever.
Um,
And so it is,
what I like about that is Hiller at
the end came in with tears, um,
in a different manner, but it really,
before he even said that I was thinking
this really fits with what we did in
high school.
And I really think they should do
something more like that.
And, and then it gives goals and, uh,
measures for people to reach for,
and you could do it as an adult.
It doesn't have to be just a high
school thing.
Um,
It's like the presidential fitness test
they had in the seventies.
It was very similar to that, John.
And I think like two of the president's
physical fitness tests actually counted
toward your shirt level.
But only two of the ten.
Because like there was no underwater swim.
There was no tread water.
I think they made it a four hundred,
which was just one lap of the track
for time for that.
So, but I think it's...
I think it's something that like even
CrossFit could adopt as like a goal chart
for people.
And maybe you sell CrossFit shirts that
say like,
I've reached all the levels of these
movements at this level.
And I get to,
I get to purchase a CrossFit shirt in
that color.
Like that would be something cool for the
community to get around.
And then you could wear that around and
everybody, everybody,
in your gym would know that you were
able to accomplish all this stuff.
Um, uh,
Jay Bertu has an inside track with, uh,
Josh Burgess says it, it was told,
I was told it should be eight to
five by the man.
Um,
Trish says this is like sixtieth
percentile crossfit requirement or maybe
seventieth.
Yeah, I don't disagree with that.
I think that that is probably what it
is.
And I think it's something that could be
fun to measure and a goal to achieve
for different crossfitters.
That's a little bit different and
something to bring the community together.
Um,
Isn't that kind of the levels thing in
the open, though, minus the shirt?
I don't think so, Vicki,
because it's independent movements that
you're trying to get better at.
I remember when I first started CrossFit,
we had Goat Day,
where if there was something that you...
Like, when I first started CrossFit,
I was over five hundred pounds.
My run was not at a level that
I could do workouts in a way that
made me successful.
So my goal was to get my mile
time down to a level where I could
at least complete workouts, right?
So whenever it was GOAT day,
I went for a run.
right?
Other people would work on their muscle
ups.
Other people would work on this or that.
This is stripping down the movements as a
way to like,
if you want to be great at the
open,
you need to be great at these ten
things.
And you need to check all these boxes
to be a bulletproof or a complete athlete.
So it's taking it one step further.
And maybe it's something you do in the
fall opposite of the open to get you
prepared and ready to then compete in the
open.
So you can focus on your weaknesses.
And it would be a chart to tell
you where you stand and where you need
more improvement so that when the open
comes,
you are more prepared and better ready to
do so.
um uh ken walters like the shirt you
get for the rogue a thousand pound
challenge exactly that's exactly what was
in my head when i thought well one
my high school experience plus that rogue
does it for the thousand pound challenge
you could transfer that over to something
like that um
Wouldn't singling out specific movements
as a test like that be contradictory to
the methodology?
I don't think so, Vicki.
Don't we try to work on our weaknesses
in our off time?
Like,
don't you after class work on something so
you're better at it when the class comes?
I just think that...
We all work on our weaknesses.
We all work on,
because there's always something that
comes up in a workout where like the
class passes you by and you need to
get better at that.
And isn't it cool to know what those
things are as like a separate test?
It's all part of fitness.
You're not going against the methodology.
I'm not saying stop doing Metcons
altogether.
I'm saying periodically test yourself on
these movements so you know where you
stand and you know where you need to
get better so when the Metcon comes,
you are good enough to hang.
Okay.
A CrossFit, wait,
is that a Nintendo back there?
How'd I miss that?
Corey is right.
That is a Lego Nintendo that I made
about, I don't know, maybe a year ago.
But thank you for noticing.
Jay Burch,
my fastest mile was five fifty seven when
I was fourteen at one hundred fifty
pounds.
I will never be a man again just
on the seven minute mile parameter.
Yeah, I think that, um,
Yeah,
I think like with a lot of work,
maybe I could get there again.
I think running is something that you just
kind of have to keep doing and you
have to commit to.
When I was trying to lose weight,
I would do two runs a week outside
of the gym because running was my
weakness.
Every time we had to go on a
run,
it didn't matter how fast I could cycle
a barbell.
It didn't matter how many pull-ups I could
do.
It didn't matter my speed on wall balls.
The minute we hit a run,
everybody passed me.
And if I wanted to get better,
I had to take time outside of the
gym to get better at running.
And so I would do that.
And I would commit to that.
And I would commit to that two days
a week.
And maybe, just maybe, in the near future,
once all these medical things are done,
I can try to get back to that
running.
I can try to get back to it.
Because that, again,
is now my weakness again.
One,
it helps with the cardio part of it
so I have more wind during a workout.
And if I go on a run,
maybe I don't lose as much time to
everybody else out on that run.
Uh, Vicki says, of course,
but you're talking about generalizing a
certain number of movements to get a
particular shirt.
That's all I'm saying.
And every workout,
shouldn't someone gauge their weaknesses?
Sure.
But I think this,
but we're not all like professional
coaches.
We're not all, um,
self-aware i think that if you test and
you see where you stand on a chart
you know and the thousand pound challenge
is done by crossfitters around the globe
that rogue does every year and that's
taking three movements and testing those
three movements bench deadlift squat can
you do a thousand pounds
And they have different levels of that.
They have like, I think a seven fifty,
a thousand, a twelve fifty,
a fifteen hundred.
And it's just something to break up your
the monotony of the year.
You don't have to just like dive into
Metcon after Metcon after Metcon.
We can work on the things we're bad
at.
Fitness is still fitness.
Right.
So.
It's all working toward the same goal of
being fit.
There's no guardrail in CrossFit that
says...
You cannot work on muscle-ups for the next
thirty days because that is against the
methodology.
No, you can do that.
We have free will.
We can work on whatever we think we
need work on so that we are better
and better prepared for the workout that
comes.
And because we worked on that,
our overall fitness will grow.
Um,
at AI is venturing into something that I
don't want it to,
to like disintegrate into.
And that is don't elite athletes get
really good at movements for the white
leader shirt.
Yes.
For a paycheck to same concept.
Yes.
I don't want to take it to like
purely competitive, but we all,
the reason we do CrossFit is we're,
we're competitive in some way.
That's what attracts you to CrossFit
because it's timed or counted and you have
a number at the end of what you
do.
That means something.
And when you get that score,
you want to do better.
Whether you're competing against your
friend, your arch rival, or yourself,
you want to do better than you did
the time before.
And the way to do that is to
get better at specific movements within
workouts where you suffer and you lose
pace or lose ground to whatever you're
doing.
And it could be anybody from Joe Average,
Me to Vicky to anyone.
You just want to get better.
And every time you get better at
something, your fitness level goes up.
And that's okay.
I don't want to...
Because elite athletes have a specific
goal in mind that they are trying to
do.
And...
And they are trying to win money,
win prize money, win games.
They are trying to game the system to
get through a weekend the best way
possible.
I'm just saying for overall general
fitness,
having a list of items that you could
test and see where you stand on that
list of fitness is not a bad idea.
And I do think it should be tiered
so you know this is a really bad
weakness or it's a somewhat weakness or
maybe it's not a weakness at all,
and you can kind of see that through
some graphing and charting.
So um.
So that's pretty much what I have to
say about that.
And thank you, Vicki.
I love feedback because it gives us
something to talk about and it makes the
conversation better.
So I'm not trying to argue with you.
I want to have the discussion.
And so I appreciate the feedback, truly.
Do you think Bridges would have gotten bad
heat if he did a female version of
the test?
I think there are some flaws to it.
So I think that whether he did a
female test or not,
he would have gotten some bad feedback.
Um, and I see the mutual love, uh,
but maybe we don't have it numbered out,
but fitness in a hundred words gives us
a list.
It gives you a list, right?
But we don't know what the score is.
And without a score,
we don't know where we stand.
And so I think you do need to
have like levels so you understand where
in that parameter,
whether it be a percentile,
whether it be just some blank times,
whatever,
so that we can understand where you are.
That's all.
Because if we're doing CrossFit and it's
not measured, then does it really count?
All right,
I'm going to finish up with this because
I've been recovering for the last couple
of days.
I've watched a lot of content where I
just needed to go brain dead.
And I've watched some shows.
David Reed,
I'm okay with the idea of Josh's test,
but the randomness of his metrics is
suspect.
Yeah,
I think there's just some flaws in it.
And again,
I think he just put it out there
for a discussion topic and to get views
and likes,
and that he accomplished considerably.
Observable, measurable, repeatable,
no clock, no crossfit.
So this weekend I tried to watch some
stuff just to kind of relax and kind
of get away from things.
Uh, and one good thing I watched was,
uh,
the wrecking crew with Jason Momoa and
Dave Batista.
It was a good old fashioned eighties
action movie.
Um,
there wasn't a lot of thinking to it
it was just explosions car chases uh
shootouts uh by two big muscly men and
i enjoyed it immensely um i wouldn't say
it's
you know,
going to be a Nobel Peace Prize for
literature type of thing.
But it was extremely entertaining in my
opinion.
And I really, really,
really enjoyed it a great deal.
And it is free on Amazon Prime right
now.
So if you're looking something like that
to watch, it's a great find for you.
I also tried to watch Begonia on Peacock.
It is Emma Stone.
I could not.
I could not.
Could not get through it.
I made it thirty five to forty minutes
and it never,
ever developed into anything.
I'm not I couldn't even finish it to
tell you if it was good,
bad or indifferent.
I just could never understand the concept
or what was trying to be achieved in
those forty minutes.
And the soundtrack was trying to create
tension and it was just hurting my head.
Um, so, uh, Lito says she liked begonia.
Uh, so she liked it.
I, the, honestly,
the soundtrack hurt my head, uh,
during the recovery.
And so I was out.
And it just never went anywhere in those
first forty minutes other than they
kidnapped a woman thinking she was an
alien.
And I don't even know where that leads
to.
So there we go.
She said she liked the ending.
I couldn't even get close to the ending.
So there's that.
I also watched the show Stick with Owen
Wilson.
It's about a golf pro who has a
meltdown on a course,
discovers a kid who is really great,
wants to take him on the road.
It is on Apple TV, and I really,
really enjoyed it.
Very heartwarming show.
Very nice movie.
Again, nothing.
It's Owen Wilson playing Owen Wilson.
And it was really, really good.
Really enjoyed that.
And what I'm currently watching now is
Pluribus on Apple TV,
which is from the creators of Breaking Bad
and Better Call Saul.
And it is definitely out there.
It is a show about something has happened
on Earth where everybody shares the same
consciousness,
I guess is the best way to put
it,
except for thirteen people who could not
be affected.
And the entire world is under the same
consciousness and they just experience
pure joy.
It has, as we got into
as I got past episode two,
it keeps getting better and better and
better.
And so hopefully I'll finish that in the
next day or two.
It is really,
it is really thought provoking.
And,
and I'm really excited to see where it
goes next.
Lito says she loves the cinematography of
it.
I would say it's very much like Breaking
Bad.
There is so many camera angles and views
and the way the direction goes that remind
me of how Breaking Bad's camera work
worked.
And so it's very similar to that.
Um,
and so I can't wait to finish it.
I think I am,
I just finished episode six yesterday and
I think it's a ten episode thing,
nine or ten.
So we're getting close to the end,
but it is so far really, really good.
The first couple episodes are trying to
figure it out a little bit,
but once it like hits and you understand
kind of the concept, um, it really,
it really sings from that point forward.
Now,
a soundtrack hurting is not being a man.
Ken, I just had sinus surgery.
I had two stints up behind my eyes.
I was very sensitive to a lot of
things.
And turn on Begonia for like ten minutes
and tell me that music is not something
that would give you a headache.
It was really, really bad.
Anytime someone says Owen Wilson playing
Owen Wilson, I hear him saying, wow.
Yeah, he does that a lot.
You're dead on, Corey.
And it's really, really good.
Really, really good.
Mark Maron's in it.
It's just...
There's a couple little surprises that may
explain why he's in the situation he's in
that are very heartfelt and very...
that make you understand his plight and
where he's going.
And it's so good.
I really, really enjoyed it.
My wife did too.
We binge watched that pretty much
Saturday, maybe Sunday,
one of those two days.
Really, really good.
So just wanted to share those things that
have been on my mind over the weekend
while I was recovering.
Now I can dive back into the CrossFit
content to talk more about stuff with you.
But before I do that, don't forget,
Third Sea is our sponsor.
They're amazing people.
Just had conversations with them today.
Love Adam and the team at Thirdsy.
They are incredible.
Make sure you use code Jazzy to get
fifteen percent off your order.
If you need a good night's sleep and
you need to recover, it is the ultimate,
the ultimate tool to do that.
Gets that collagen in your system,
doesn't use melatonin.
It helps you sleep,
helps you recover and gives you everything
you need to have a better day the
next day.
with that, I wanted to talk about,
should CrossFit do an all-star game or a
pro bowl?
Maybe we'll talk about that tomorrow.
Um, but leave comments on the YouTube, uh,
about things you want to talk about or
comments you have about things we talked
about today.
And maybe we'll pick those up tomorrow
with that.
I made it
with the recovery.
Hopefully,
I don't have the adverse effects I did
last night.
But with that,
I hope you guys have a great rest
of your day.
Like and subscribe to the channel.
And we'll see you tomorrow on Lunch with
the Clydesdale.
Bye, guys.
