What's going on, everybody?
Welcome to Sunday Night
CrossFit Talk here on the
Clydesdale Media YouTube channel.
Good to be with you.
We have Jamie Latimer,
we have Carolyn Prevost,
and we have myself.
And in the chat already,
we have the best stats and
information person in the business,
Holly Dugan.
Data Wad on Instagram.
Scott, did you get a haircut or?
Lack of, lack of haircut.
It looks good.
If I did my normal,
it would be like this tall.
Yeah.
I have a haircut scheduled
on Tuesday before I leave for Fort Worth.
Just in time.
This is my old do before my
transformation into podcaster.
Don't laugh.
I like it.
I see you, Carolyn.
I see you.
I like it.
I think it looks good.
I don't, I don't know.
I just hate it's an old corporate look.
All right.
I keeping it real once to
borrow some of my hair permanently.
They're definitely going to
cut off enough on Tuesday for sure.
Um,
Bruce is asking for an
update to show a Cheryl missed those.
We had made an announcement
that we are taking a break
till after the games and we
are reformatting that show
to make it more of a community show,
do some workouts of the week,
things like that.
So the last one we did go check that out.
We talk about all the
changes we're going to make
and we'll be relaunching
that show right after the games.
so um guys watching the
olympics this week devs
your week slowed down jamie
anything updated no no no
olympics for me I've been
like non-stop watching the
olympics I think I'm off
right now in the summer
it's like all I'm doing is
just consuming the olympics
and different stuff so it's great
yeah I can't I i watched a
lot of simone and I watched
a lot of katie and them
going back and forth on the
gold medal count which I
thought was pretty cool um
I just kind of watching how
like simone tied katie went
ahead simone's got a couple
more events like who's
going to end up as the
biggest uh or the american
with the most female with
the most gold medals look
Katie says that she might
compete in 2028 in Los Angeles.
Simone won't probably,
but Ledecky will also.
But you never know.
Yeah.
Like four years in a gymnast
is pretty hard at her age.
She's already one of the older gymnasts.
I think you can stay within
the sport longer in
swimming than you probably
can in gymnastics.
I think Simone can catch up.
i think ledecky can do the
long distance stuff for
sure the 800 and the 1500 I
think she could do that um
and probably win those I
posted something on my
story in the in the 1500
she holds the 20 fastest
times in history like that
is insane it is insane like
That is completely unheard of.
I don't think people can
grasp what domination that
is in one event.
I mean, I think her just winning,
I guess I was like 10
seconds ahead of the next person.
Like that's, that's insane.
You don't,
you see all these other races
are so darn close,
like hundreds of a second.
And then there's Katie.
Nobody else.
Sixth best time.
Yeah, that's crazy.
That's the concept.
It's hard to grasp your head.
Put your head around.
Yeah.
So what happened with the Canadian soccer?
I haven't caught it,
but you were telling me
about them last week.
Well,
they ended up going 3-0 in the round
robin,
so they made it through to the
quarterfinals.
They played against Germany,
who's a really good team,
and then they ended up
losing in a shootout.
So Germany is off to the
semis and USA for you guys
are off to the semis.
So that's where they'll be playing,
I think.
It's not us against you, Carolyn.
Well, I mean, it kind of is.
We're Canadian at heart.
So can I ask you this?
With the penalty they
incurred because of the drone thing,
did it make them a lower
seed and have to go against
a better team in the next round?
Yeah, that's you.
Like they would have
probably have had an easier
opponent for their quarterfinals.
Um, but they come out, you know,
with only three points
instead of nine points.
So I'm sure that, you know,
being second in their group
makes a big difference for
her second or third or
third in their group would
make a difference.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That would be tough.
Have you guys watched any of Alana Moore?
No.
She's the rugby player that
stiff-armed the girl.
If you are not following her on Instagram,
the funniest athlete, I think, out there.
She's up there with Rebecca
Fusile and internet content.
So funny.
Yeah.
She started the Olympics
with around 600-something
thousand followers,
and I think she's at 2.7 million now.
She's blown up.
Yeah, it's crazy.
Yeah.
She's really doing well for herself.
Her social media is blowing up,
and I just think that her
content is great.
Yeah.
She's marketing herself very well,
and her sport, too.
She's doing a great job.
People are definitely really invested.
I would watch Rugby Sevens.
Now that I know what it is, it is fast.
It's over quick.
I could watch that all day.
So she's made me a fan for sure.
Vi asks, in your opinion,
do you think they already
have or continue to benefit
from the knowledge their
coaches gained when cheating?
Speaking of the Canadian team,
do you think that they gained...
After the suspension and everything,
do you think that they
actually still have an advantage?
I think every team does it.
And Canada got caught.
That's my opinion on it.
With drones?
Spying of some sort.
Yes.
There's an American soccer
player at the Olympics, I'm pretty sure,
that said he knows for a
fact that all the top teams do it.
And I feel like that's most
likely the case in
different ways that they
would be spying on different teams.
I would not be surprised one bit.
I do not think it's only Canada.
The question was,
because the coach cheated
and gained knowledge,
does it help them even if
the coach is removed?
And I believe it does.
they were trained in one way
or given advice about one
team that still stands even
when the coach is removed.
But I do agree with you that
everybody tries to cheat.
Most people try to cheat.
Yeah.
I just think like in a sport
like soccer where it's very, you know,
reaction and like,
you can know what formations they play.
Let's say they play four, four, two, or,
you know, I don't know, you know, four,
like,
whatever, three, four, three or something.
Like just knowing certain formations, like,
oh no,
is it that much of an advantage to
spy on them?
I feel like you can study film quite a bit,
like looking at their practices.
Where I think it would play
an advantage is like
looking at the goalkeeper
and tendencies or if they
could watch a shootout that
they would do at practices
and see the tendency of a certain player.
Okay, they like to shoot left.
So then, you know,
you write it on your water bottle.
this player's coming up to shoot,
number five, okay, dive to my left.
That kind of stuff would be
more beneficial in terms of formation.
I feel like once the game starts,
you adjust to how it is.
But I'm sure there's advantages still.
Kipping it real asks,
what sport can I easily
become an Olympian in?
I think that
I think that's almost a
disrespectful question
because I think to be an
Olympian is really, really, really,
really hard.
I wanted to be an Olympian
when I was growing up.
And when I became a,
like a sophomore in high school,
I knew it was over.
I know Carolyn tried to be
an Olympian in Canada and you,
and then you find out at
some point it's over like,
and that's working your
whole life toward that one goal.
Like I, I don't,
I think even making that statement,
even if you're like an
archery or skeet shooting
or whatever it is, break dancing,
like you have to put a lot
of work in to be the best in the world.
I don't want all that
Turkish guy shooting.
He just sounds like he just
picked up a gun and after
his divorce and went and
now he's an Olympian.
His picture with just the
hand in the pocket is awesome.
Yeah.
There are stories of people
moving to small countries and doing it.
Yeah, that's not picking a sport, though.
That's gaming the system.
I saw a special one, and of course,
swimming is my slant,
but where people have gone
and done that in countries
and could barely swim,
and they've had to almost...
hold them in a heat by
themselves so they could be
saved the most impressive
olympians though by far to
me is the decathletes like
it's they're the best
athletes in the world um
could they be the fittest
in the world I mean the way
that they're elite and
they're sprinting and
distance I mean you look at
their bodies um obviously
it would be like there's no
like they could probably do
you know a bunch of strict
pull-ups they wouldn't have
the same gymnastic skills
that we have but it's a
good argument that they're
the fittest in the world I
would love to see an
athlete actually try to
compete at crossfit like
but they would have to like
learn some of the things
that we're programming for
our programming is crossfit
base but like they're
sprinting would like our
sprinting is a joke
compared to their results
our endurance is a joke
compared to what they're
able to do they're able to high jump
throw a javelin shot put a
long jumper like it's it's
impressive what they're
doing yeah do you remember
back in the old days of
crossfit when they had the
skills competition where
they did the broad jump and
they did like and they
weren't full point events
they just did a bunch of like
skills do you think that
that that would be cool to
bring back or do you think
that that's not exciting
enough for the crowd I
think it'd be cool to bring
back I like it I just think
we're so novice at it like
it's I i personally would
like to see it but I don't
think that many of the
athletes would be very good
at it if I'm being honest
People have specialized so
much in CrossFit.
I heard people speculating
when the Farrington field
was announced before we got
more details that it might
be something like that.
Like the old broad jump,
like maybe a vertical,
maybe like just a bunch of skills,
things that are 25 point
events or 50 point events,
as opposed to like a
hundred point events.
And you just combine them all together.
I would love it.
I'd love to see it.
I think it's an important part of fitness,
and it doesn't get tested enough.
Yeah,
we know Dave's not bringing back the
softball throw,
but the rest of them could
be brought back and made
into something kind of cool.
All right, well,
let's dive into the show a little bit.
Dave has decided instead of
a week in review,
he's going to do a day in
review while he's at the CrossFit Games.
Just overall general thoughts,
if you've caught any of those,
what your thoughts are
about Dave's day in review.
I mean, I think I like it.
It gets you,
for those of us that aren't
there yet or going at all,
it's cool to see some of those set up,
just see different parts of
the venue and put you in.
It gets you excited.
It's that lead up to draw you in.
What's going on?
What are they testing?
What has he got to say?
Yeah, night one was kind of meh,
but you did get to see Dickie's arena.
Like, you got to see it at night.
You got to see that there's
steps leading up to it,
that it looks a lot bigger
with Dave kind of in
perspective of it than it
does in some of the shots we see online.
Night two, I thought was outstanding.
He's in the stadium seats
with the demo team down on
the field working through some stuff.
And then you get your
magnifying glass out and
you're trying to figure out
all the clues.
Oh, yeah.
I was zooming into the
background looking at where
everything was placed.
I text Jamie this morning.
I'm like,
zoom into the left behind Dave's
shoulder.
Are those like the pylons
that they ran around in the sprint?
She goes, I don't know.
It's too blurry.
It's if anything, it'd be like, if it is,
I just think there's the
one and it's for like the end turnaround,
just down around and back.
I don't think it's going to be like a,
a bunch of them out on the field.
You think it's like a suicide?
Yeah, it could be.
I don't know if, I don't know.
I mean, like, give me some zigzag.
You're not asking,
like they've done that a
couple of times and it's
been awesome every time they've done it.
Except for when people got
cut because they stepped on the line.
Yeah.
But that's part of track and field.
You step on the line at track and field,
you're out.
We know the rules.
There's plenty of room.
You're just not cutting right.
If they add the zigzag,
then my Brooke Wells
prediction might be right.
Just saying.
He said that the event was...
based or inspired from one
of the events from Carson.
Is that what he, what he said on his, um,
he said that he, they were, weren't,
they were going to be
working on his favorite event today.
And it was inspired by
something from Madison loosely.
But then did you pick up any clues,
Carolyn,
with your magnifying glass and zoom?
There's the starting block,
which is just where the name,
thing goes over and then
there was I think there was
three pylons those are the
ones that normally you cut
across around or if it's a
suicide you could also um
like run around that way
the the happy star in his
story today where you saw
um what's her name trista
holding it it didn't look
like it was that heavy I
mean she didn't make it
look like it was super super heavy um the
looks huge though but not
sure how I still don't know
how they're going to use
that into the sprint so
excited to see what they're
what they'll do with it
whether they throw it in a
sled they run with it yeah
there wasn't many clues on
the floor or on the field
so I you could see sandbag
like things over by the
people to the right
in front of them.
And then the other big clue
for me was you saw Colton Tudor.
Yeah.
And,
and Tetlo running straight running
around the track.
Like a mile would be run.
Right.
Nothing in their hands.
And so it looks like straight mile to me.
Yep.
You also,
I think he also had posted Sydney
running the mile.
Um,
on his story yeah like you
have to almost watch his
instagram story because
there's a lot of flus on
those two that will be
popping up or pictures that
will be popping up this
week so I'm going to run
through a story since you
brought that up or just go
through it so this is uh
inside the arena um and
then keeping it real made
it onto dave's story nice
Here's Sydney Wells running,
just like Carolyn said.
Here's the boys.
Yep.
Looks like a drop-in.
Okay.
And there is...
is like just recap of the
day in review and where are
we at here oh the lake oh
there's a big paddleboard
there's some people running
are they going to go right
into the water on it but
they're all on their knees
so I don't think that
they're allowed to do the standout
I don't think you'd want to really.
So, I mean,
these seems like the safest way
to go on this.
I think Dave also says that
they're going the wrong
direction when they're on them.
That's awesome.
So that's Dave's stories from today.
Um,
keeping it real says I was surprised he
had them testing teams.
I thought they would be
testing individual.
They're the only testers they got.
So if they need someone to test,
we tested plenty of team
workouts last year on the demo team.
They,
they have to test most of like both
teams and individuals.
And we ended up testing more
of the team workouts than
individuals because the
individuals are oftentimes easier, uh,
to test,
but like the big bobs and stuff
are just like the layout.
There'll be like that demo
team is going to be,
put through a bunch,
like they'll put four athletes.
Okay.
You guys will go do this team workout.
And then the other two athletes,
the male and female might
test an individual workout.
And if they don't like something, okay,
let's get another two athletes,
male and female to test
this individual workout.
And there'll be like, Oh,
which four you guys think
would be the best to test
this team workout.
And then they kind of talk about, um,
what they can do there.
So no, there'll be those athletes again,
put through the ringer.
for people who don't
remember carolyn was a demo
team member last year so
she knows all about what
they're put through because
she experienced it
firsthand herself yeah the
first few days is a lot of
testing it slows down for
the demo team after where
they're doing engagements
and um might be showing up
at level ones or seminar um
workouts or community stuff
but the first few days are
basically got to be ready to
next next man up or next
woman up to do a workout
what is more fatiguing demo
team or competing at the
games I mean I think
competing at the games
because you have a pressure
like you're anxious like
it's just I don't know it's
very different um
It's different.
I was still very sore from
the demo team stuff.
Definitely.
When I was there in 2017 and
we were working on Strongman's Fear,
the demo team tested that event, I swear,
like 20 times within two days.
And it kept changing.
Our instructions on how to
set it up kept changing.
The weights on everything kept changing.
It would, they,
it took that long for them
to get it right.
The thing is,
is like they have testers
that will test it prior to, um,
to the actual games.
Like when I,
when I was on the demo team last year,
I didn't know a single
workout until I got to the
games and did them there.
It's look,
it looks like with Dave back in
the picture,
he brought some of those demo
athletes out to the ranch,
or he may have went to
different locations with
certain athletes to test it out prior,
like multiple weeks.
So, I mean,
that also could leave more time
for leakage of certain information.
But I know that they,
like they had a last year,
a camp in Columbus that had a certain,
like certain testers do
workouts and then the demo
team did them on site.
But like, we didn't know anything prior.
The teams tested here in Columbus again.
I know Boz came to Columbus
because they just do it at
Rogue in the warehouse.
And so it's just easy to get
everybody here where the equipment is,
I'm guessing, for the teams.
So they did that.
So the other thing that came
out this week from Dave's
Instagram was the event for
which we'll go ahead and
just play because we have it here.
And I've heard no bad
comments about this workout.
Like everybody seems to love
the structure of this workout.
Yeah.
Yeah, I personally love this workout.
I would love to do it.
So was it on purpose where
he went 50 TRI and then erased it?
I'm sure.
I mean, I mean, it makes no sense.
It doesn't go with anything
else that he would have been writing.
25 rope climbs is no joke though.
Yeah.
That's a lot.
Especially if it happens to
be like the 20 foot rope climbs too.
So what do you think about
the weights on the deadlift?
I think it's fine.
Yeah.
I mean, it's got a hundred deadlifts.
I don't think you need to go
heavier than that.
I don't like to see heavier.
So I think this is perfect.
I think this is a great workout.
Do we think that Dave did
this or I can't picture
Dave using emojis at any
time in his life?
I can.
I know, I think Sivan said he doesn't,
but I totally can see him
sending an emoji.
Do we think this is him
actually doing this?
I doubt it.
I don't know.
So, are triple unders a fake leak?
Who knows?
You know, I kind of
I kind of wish, like,
hope that he did that, did intentionally,
like, tell, like,
one person something that
is not going to be used to
see if it would get leaked.
Like,
I think that would be the smart way to go,
assuming they're ever going
to actually do anything about it.
But, like,
you should totally add in a
movement every year and see who leaks it.
I was watching a plate stack,
check chat the other day
that grant was on kipping,
kipping it real.
And, uh, they talked about,
should you suspend someone
who leaks information?
And I think you should,
I don't know if it's four year ban, but,
um,
it's just as damaging to the sport as
someone popping for PEDs.
And I do believe like a
suspension is in order if
that's what happened.
i agree but how do you know
who it was if unless like
you intentionally did
something like that like
gave someone devil's press
and someone triple unders
and someone knees to elbows
and you see who who said
who comes out with what
then you know who your leak is
It's just so hard because
you have the demo athletes
that let's say will know
the workouts this week or possibly prior.
You have other testers that
have done the workouts.
You have people that are
walking around facilities
when things are getting tested.
You have judges that might
know workouts ahead of time.
You have seminar staff,
people that might know parts of like,
you know,
the pictures just starts getting
bigger and it's hard to
pinpoint probably where it
comes from unless you have
direct evidence.
Um,
yeah it's just it's the
unknown of our sport is a
huge problem because it's
oftentimes not unknown to
everyone right well
apparently ariel got a call
from hq after that was
aired on grant's show the
other day so apparently
they're invest they were
investigating to some
degree as to what happened
Which they should.
And if you find out who it is,
I do think there should be a punishment.
I agree.
Because it's not getting better,
it's getting worse.
Right.
And even on that show,
I was saying in the chat
that there are times where who cares?
It's just this to that.
But those crossover
double-unders that got
leaked a couple years ago were huge.
The fact that half the field
had a beaded rope before
that event made it a
completely unfair advantage
for half the field.
Yeah.
And I know Carolyn was
competing that year and she
didn't have a beaded rope.
Nope.
I didn't make it to there.
So.
Vi says HQ could publicly
name them as responsible
for the game's leaks and
shame can be very powerful.
And I guess I'm assuming it
with suspension that it's an athlete,
but it could be someone
that's not an athlete.
And so suspension won't do any good.
Yeah.
Like that's,
you don't know if it's an
athlete could be a
bystander that was watching.
Like, yep.
I mean, I'm sure that they have normally,
like I would assume that
they would only have, let's say Boz,
Dave and, you know, Chuck let's, you know,
watching the workouts
getting tested and then
they're just writing notes.
But if there's other people that are there,
like you just don't know.
It's it's hard.
Yeah.
And you have the graphics guys.
A graphics guy has to make
all that stuff for
production of the TV show.
This is the workout and this
is what's in it.
All that has to be done too.
ESPN's probably got a list
of what the workout is.
So yeah, it is deep.
Deeper than it used to be, I'm sure.
So that leak was that the
box is different.
Do you think that the box is
structured different now
that you've heard that?
Or do you think like your
initial reaction when we
showed that video last week
that there was like a line
she had to step over on top
or a chalk mark she had to
step into and out of?
Do you think the box is
actually structured
different or do you think
you were right initially?
I still think there's an
area that you have to step
up into with both feet
before you can go to the
other side of the box.
Like whether that's a
straight line going across
the middle of the box and
you have to stand up two
feet must make contact here.
I don't know.
Like that's,
it just looked like you had to stand up.
Let's say three point of contact,
stand up straight step and
then come down.
Larry Young says the leak
could come from drone watching them test.
I've heard that's done in other places.
Bruce says there's footprints on it.
But it would have to change
when they come up the other
side of the box.
Yeah.
When I looked at the video,
it looked like one side was
lower than the other.
to me but that would be very
weird I mean unless it's
like almost like a step but
I doubt it yeah but just
like where her knee was
going on this side was
higher than on the left
side of the frame but I
don't know how that would
change how the box is yeah
Well,
the other thing that came out this week,
and thank you to the Barbell Spin,
they made a nice little
schedule of events for the week.
You can also download the games app,
but this is one little square,
shows you all the stuff
pretty generically.
I think if you want to know
what's going on this weekend,
this is the best way to figure it out.
Yeah,
this graphic is far superior than the
website.
Because I know when we're at the games,
it is chaos.
And we're always asking each other,
when's the next event?
When's the next event?
I'm probably going to print this off,
laminate it,
and have it with me at all
times so I know when the next thing is,
when can I be there?
But what I do notice too is there are,
like Dave talked about,
there are built-in breaks in the day.
where there's absolutely
nothing going on in the venue.
So like Thursday,
you have the two events out at the lake,
and then there is a break
from 9 to 11 a.m.
Then the next event is 11 to 2,
and then team event from 2.15 to 4.
You have opening ceremonies
for a half an hour, and then 4.30 to 5.30,
another break,
before the Indies come back
in and do two and a half hours.
Two and a half hours, what could that be?
for the final event of Thursday.
I think that's close.
Like,
the opening ceremonies being 4 to 4.30,
and then an hour after,
you have a group of them
that are going to be first
heat in that individual
event on Thursday.
I wish there was more time
for the athletes there because, I mean,
assuming it's a short workout,
that they don't need too,
too much time to warm up.
Like, that seems very close to,
because 5.30 would be the
start time of first heat.
Yeah.
Yeah.
if anything runs a little
bit off which normally they
don't I think the games is
pretty good at staying on
like exactly unless or on
time unless there was like
a a rain delay which that
won't be an issue this year
um it's just a very quick
turnaround there for the
whoever's in that first heat yeah
So again, we get to Friday,
we have team events to start today,
and then a long indie event, then a break,
an hour break, back to a team event,
indie event, and then a break.
And that 5.40 to 8 p.m.,
that's a pretty good chunk
break before heading to
Farrington Field for the
final event of the night.
Does that...
Thursday night, 5.30, 8 p.m.,
is that the ESPN block?
I don't know.
I would only be guessing if
I answered that question.
That would make sense to me.
Yeah.
Because I think they were
touting that it was more prime time.
So that would be until 9 p.m.
Eastern time.
get into the prime time
block if they did that yeah
with at least maybe the
final heats so you could
like run the final heat of
men and women at at eight
o'clock eastern time yeah I
might try to find that
then Saturday starts at 8 AM.
That's Chad.
Uh, and then you have a, a little break,
then team event, indie event,
team event again,
and then an hour break in the event.
But these are all, this is a short day.
Like we're, we're done at six 45.
Um,
and not a lot of breaks in there,
and the workouts look, after Chad,
not very long.
And isn't that evening event,
that's the ladder?
No.
No,
so that Saturday morning one from 8 to
10.30, that's Chad.
So I'm assuming, let's say,
the female go first or male
from 8 to 9.15, let's call it,
and then 9.15 to 10.30,
so two heats probably.
And then the 1 to 3 p.m.
is the clean ladder.
And then eight.
So from 1030.
So let's say nine.
Let's say the females go first.
So let's say they're done around 915.
At the latest,
they got a few hours before
the clean ladder to recover.
Should be a good amount of time.
Then Sunday, it doesn't start till 11 a.m.
That's the team.
The Indies start at noon
with a quick one-hour
workout and then a three-to-five block.
Award ceremony only 15
minutes after the final event.
If they hold true to that,
that is a massive improvement.
Yeah.
Massive.
Last year, I think we waited an hour,
hour and a half after the
event for the award ceremony.
Yeah.
At this point,
when you look at the schedule,
there are 11 events.
Do you think there will be
double scored events to get to 12?
Have we been under 12 recently?
Not that I can remember for many years.
Yeah.
11 seems too, too few.
Yeah.
So I wonder with Farrington field,
if the sprint and the mile
are two separate events.
Yeah.
Likely.
I mean, that's a,
that would be an easy one.
And then do they throw
another one in double scored or.
I would like to see more
scores on Sunday than two,
two scored events to end the day.
Cause you don't want someone
already have that wrapped
up on Sunday with two events.
Like you'd want to see,
let's say a finale that has
a two part event.
And you know what?
You can't take an event off
because there's, you know, 200,
300 points there that day.
So I hope the Sunday has a
double parter for sure.
Yeah.
I hope so too.
I think just the more events, the better.
Larry Young,
thank you so much for the $4.99, dude.
I really appreciate you.
A happy star was as big as Trista.
You saw that, Carolyn.
Did you think it was as big as her?
it's a pretty big star it
looks cool um but I think
it's probably easier to
carry than the sandbag
because the sandbag is like
so much larger and if you
can't wrap your hands
around it it's like way
more difficult um the star
is almost like the husafel
but I would say almost
easier if I were to guess
based on how like did it
look full or floppy like we
talked last week
No, it looks full,
but I don't know how heavy it is.
I don't think it's going to
be ridiculously heavy.
They're sprinting with it.
You don't want them
necessarily face-planting too.
As you do, that's the fun.
You still want a sprint event.
Clock says you can bite the
point of the star for additional support.
I wonder...
But I wonder how, like, if you can hold it,
let's say on your shoulder,
just different ways,
like have it here and
you're just holding the top
like this as you're running.
And it would be interesting
whether they have it in the
warmup area or not.
And it's just like,
you guys don't get to touch it.
You guys get to touch it on
the field and figure out
how you want to run with it.
That would be interesting.
Wrong one.
Definitely easier, but cool.
I'll tell you what.
Again,
I volunteered at Outdoor Field in 17,
so I had to go pick up the cheese curds.
It's just a sandbag,
but it painted yellow and
called a cheese curd.
Just made it look cooler.
It just was.
It was no different than
your normal everyday sandbag.
Always got to be creative, right?
Yeah.
I like it.
I think it takes the arm length out of
I mean that the benefit of
the people with the longer
wingspan and it's just your strength.
Yeah.
It'll be interesting to see
how they let them hold it for sure.
How was Trista holding it?
Like underneath the, the points or.
Yeah, just, just underneath like this.
And then there was another picture.
I think it was Katie
Henninger and she just had
it on her shoulder.
Oh yeah.
But she's a boss.
Like she can do whatever she wants.
She's just one of the
coolest ladies I've ever met in my life.
When I worked, when I did the rogue,
I had like some Penn state
stuff on and they were
playing Ohio state that day.
She relentlessly came after me like hard.
So now let's hit the, the teams.
All right.
Massive research to come up
with our top five teams.
and sure um and so I'm gonna
pull those up I gotta see
how this is gonna work uh
well I think we'll do jamie
first okay here we go top
five teams at the crossfit
games okay I have fifth eighth day
Fourth, Mayhem, just CrossFit Mayhem.
They took out Independence.
Why you got that?
I don't know.
Because I was overachieving.
And then I realized they
took it off the leaderboard.
Third, the Prestanda Krieger team.
Second, Invictus.
And first, Peak360.
So my big question on this
is the Krieger team.
Why that one as opposed to
the other seven?
I know.
I don't know.
They just seem like... Isn't
that the longest standing team?
Isn't that the... I don't know.
Well,
they kind of broke up because... Yeah.
What's her name is with Peak.
Right.
But when I was looking at the teams,
did you see Kristen Holt is
listed on one of the teams?
I think she's...
She's probably the alternate.
Yeah.
But how cool would it be for
her to roll out the tunnel
on that first event and
make the major comeback?
That would be amazing.
She is one fit lady.
Holy cow.
Yeah, I don't know.
I just think that I had them
written down the names of
the people on that team.
I don't know where that list
is right this second.
But that was the group that I thought
I like the eighth day.
Eighth day across it.
I know.
Does Danielle Dunlop, is she in that one?
Yes, she is.
Mm-hmm.
So, Clark,
I think that Prislanda Krieger
is what was Navy Blue.
Correct.
And I did look at the names,
and they did look familiar to me.
Mm-hmm.
but the Norwegian names are
not easy to read and not to
like differentiate without
knowing the language is very hard.
Yeah.
So why peak three 60?
I just think they're going to win.
I, I think,
I think Noah's the twosome of
Noah and Tola,
I just think is unstoppable.
Yeah.
I think there might be
better girls on other teams,
but I just think Tola and
Noah are insane.
See,
I think their girls make the difference.
I think their girls are great.
They're great.
But so is like, I think, I mean,
I think Hannah Black and
Emily Rethwell duo will be
an incredible duo.
I don't think they're any
better than Mathilde Garnas
and... I'm blanking on the
name right now.
See, you don't even know her name.
Yes, the one... She's super strong.
Yes, she was.
The blonde.
I think that duo is very, very strong.
But this Invictus team is
not Hannah Black and...
No.
Okay.
No, that's the unconquerable.
I have them in like seventh.
I wrote a list out to like 10th place,
but... Because this
Invictus is Lauren Fisher.
Lena Richter.
Good call.
Yeah.
This Invictus is Lauren
Fisher and Jesse Smith.
Smith.
Yeah.
So...
But I know that I called you
a homer when you sent me
the eighth day because
they're the Michigan team.
Correct.
You know them really well.
And what makes you think
that they're going to
compete and make the top five?
Because I don't think you're wrong.
I just... I mean, if I was being honest,
I probably would put them in sixth,
but I want them on here to
be talked about.
I think...
I mean, their guys are really strong.
Dylan's incredibly strong.
And if you watch them at semis,
their strength,
their power output in the
machines is... Because they
were first or second in
that machine workout.
Their running is incredible.
Rachel is like...
she's an incredibly aerobic
enduring athlete, but like I would,
I would say she's like me,
but way stronger.
Um, so I think she's just,
she's just incredibly enduring,
good runner, good swimmer,
incredible gymnastics on her fatigue.
Well,
I'm going to go ahead and share
Carolyn's and it's going to
be so much different.
Uh, there we go.
So in fifth, I have CrossFit Walleye.
So that's Jamie Simmons and
Elliot with Mia and Laura
Horvath's brother.
That's what he's always
going to be known to me.
Team CrossFit Mayhem.
I think they'll have a great year.
Mayhem Thunder in third.
And Invictus and Peak360.
I think it's going to be
very close between Peak360 and Invictus.
I don't think it's going to
be one until the last event.
I think both teams have some
extremely fit individuals.
Both teams have been working
together all year long,
which isn't always the case for teams.
I think all of these teams
here are going to be very
good at the games.
I think teams have been
getting a lot of negative
press over the last year.
And I think this could be
one of the best top fives
we see in a very long time.
So I'll go ahead and pull mine up.
So my top five is Walleye in fifth,
Unconquerable in fourth, Mayhem in third,
Peak360 second, Invictus in first.
So I picked Invictus over
Peak360 because we couldn't
have three of the exact same.
Which killed me so hard
because Mathilde has a
special place in my heart
and always will.
And I love that girl.
And I want, I really,
I used to not be a Noah fan.
And then I got to meet him
and I got to know him.
And now I want him to get a win.
I really do.
But I'm picking Invictus
just because I want it to
be different because I
think they are very, very similar.
And I think that Jessie
Smith doesn't get the do she deserves.
She is really freaking fit.
She is.
And if Lauren Fisher is the
Lauren Fisher we saw in the
offseason at Lake Rogue,
I think they will do really, really well.
And I think Mayhem,
after two years together
and only having to change one person out,
is two years of working
together and is going to do them very,
very well.
And then Unconquerable,
I think at this point
there's so many good teams.
They looked really good at the West Coast.
uh, with Hannah black and breath.
Well,
and I think they're going to do well
as the, and the men are,
are semifinal athletes that
I got to know through the
interview process.
So a little bit of heart
pick here as well.
And, uh, while I,
I went with them over
mayhem thunder just because of age.
Um, and it's more the age of the men.
Um,
Khan and James Newberry.
I think they've seen a
better day as an athlete.
They're both phenomenal athletes.
It's just the competition's
really tough at this point.
So that's why I went with
Walleye over them.
And
julian's asking why did only
one person pick mayhem
thunder and I just gave you
my reason why because it's
the men I i would never
pick against cara if she
had uh stronger men on her
team uh but yeah yeah I had
him higher I moved him down
so I could put eighth day
on um I'm really curious to
see how the torian team
does too with royce
yeah I was going back and
forth between that one and
cross at walleye I really
like the walleye team um I
just feel like there's been
a lot of injuries in the
past you know competitions
with like jamie and even
elliott staying healthy so
that's why I was cons like
conflicting grabbing the um
The other Torian team.
Both of them went with Walleye.
Yeah, Mia is so good.
Yeah, Mia is so strong.
Her gymnastics is great too.
Yeah, that team is really, really good.
I would have loved to seen
Royce on Kara's team.
I think it would have been
an incredible team.
Yeah.
If I asked his Royce's team in the running,
I would have loved,
I w I love Royce and I love,
and if the two of them were together,
definitely give them a
better shot in the top five for sure.
And I love con and James too.
Like they're some of the
most fun guys to talk to.
Super nice, super polite.
Every time I run into him,
just great dudes.
And, um,
I D I just think that they haven't
focused on CrossFit as much
and cons been hurt a ton
the last few years.
Like when he was on Annie's team,
his back was a mess.
So, yeah.
Yeah,
the Aussies could put together a team
that would be unreal if
they would just kind of
band together and do that.
I guess I don't know how
close they live to each other.
True, true.
You think of it as a small island,
but it's like six hours
across or something like that.
Jonathan says, but they have car as quads.
I just think their
experience is going to prevail.
I think they don't have as
much pressure on them
because they're just kind
of like they're going,
they're going to have fun.
You know, they're good friends.
They have good chemistry.
I just think they've been at
the game so many times and
they're going to step up
and I think they'll podium.
Yeah, it's funny.
That experience thing is
crazy because I've been
doing all these Masters
interviews and a lot of them are rookies.
A lot of them are going for
the first time.
And the people that aren't,
I've asked them,
what's the advice you would
give to a rookie?
And every one of them is like,
I was so overwhelmed that first year,
I didn't enjoy it.
I didn't take it in.
I didn't look around.
I didn't realize I was at
this really cool thing.
And some of the younger athletes, I think,
are going to have that same thing.
where that one, the peak, the Invictus,
and the Thunder team will
not be fazed by that at all.
Right.
So, okay.
Did you like how I used the
bobbleheads in our graphics this week?
I didn't even see it.
You didn't see your
bobblehead beside the top on your name?
Uh-uh.
Oh, I closed him down.
Aw.
Well, I'll put him on IG,
so you'll see him there.
Okay.
All right.
So the next thing on the
agenda is Mike Halpin put
together this concept of
how to give points for the
training camp award.
And
With it, it also kind of allows,
if you're not with a training camp,
to kind of be lumped
together as one as well.
So let me share this.
So the way it would work is
it's like a medal table,
just like the Olympics.
And you would count up the gold, silvers,
and bronze from each event
throughout the weekend.
So event one, Mayhem takes gold,
Brute takes silver,
and Krypton takes bronze.
You get a check in each one
of your columns.
Then event two comes,
and Underdogs takes gold,
Training Think Tank takes silver,
and HWPO takes bronze.
You get a check in your column.
So initial...
what are your thoughts on
this as opposed to kind of
the other concepts we heard
of where at the end of the weekend,
you get a point for where
you finish like a point for
first two points for second.
And it's a golf score, low score wins.
I like this idea.
I mean,
I think this is kind of cool to
track throughout the week.
And yeah,
I'd be curious where this,
how it plays out as to just first, second,
third or whatever and
giving places if it really
matters a whole lot.
Like is the top training
camp going to be the top
training camp no matter what?
Probably.
It was Caroline Lombre that
came up with this,
probably because Jeff Adler
doesn't have a training camp.
I don't even like the word
training camp because
there's not many people
that are at camps versus training program,
I think was probably what
Dave was referring to
versus an actual camp where people train.
But I like this idea that
anyone could train.
you know participate whether
you're at your garage gym
like ariel to you know
mayhem having multiple
athletes um be competing
and just you know tally the
scores per event um whether
you want to represent your
gym like your affiliate or
a training program because
you could be an affiliate
but you're following
another training program so
whatever you want to represent
would put there I think it's
um it's a cool idea I
thought that that was neat
would would you put teams
in this too or is this for
individual only I think
individual only so many
teams I don't have a
problem either way except
for that yeah there's so
many like I think like four
of the I mean you have two
of the invictus teams
one underdogs team and then
like four four or five
mayhem teams I just think
it's hard because some
sometimes on teams they
don't even follow the same
program like they like 13
it's their team name really
um I think you would have
you if you really want to
do a team you just had a
separate leaderboard for
the teams for first second
and third on events yeah I
don't think it I don't
think it would belong in
this type of leaderboard
just the individuals
So then he also flipped it
over to countries.
Why not do a medal count
just like we do for the Olympics?
So Canada has some really
good men athletes right now.
And women.
Our women are crushing it.
And as a Canadian, Carolyn,
wouldn't you want to see how you stack up
a medal count against the
world like I think I think
this actually has probably
more traction because it
means more to the athlete
than even the training camp
yeah or am I wrong I think
I think both have good like
the athletes can have pride
in their country and then
also representing
their affiliate because, or their training,
their personal training program,
because I think, you know,
when you're representing your country,
it's one thing, but also putting your, um,
your company or your,
your brand out there can be beneficial.
So if people are like, oh, you know,
Ariel's gym or just a random wonderland,
right?
Like cross it, run it with wonderland.
And then you just start
seeing all the points for that.
And it just gives good reputation to, um,
that affiliate.
I like both.
I like both ideas.
If I were a betting man,
I would say that Halpin
probably will run this
through the games in both ways,
and we'll actually see what
it looks like at the end.
And really, that's all we really need.
We don't need to give a prize for it.
I think for spectators,
it'd be really cool to see.
Yeah, I like this.
Easy to follow.
It's a cool idea.
Yeah.
Very cool.
Good job, Mike.
Would it be more interesting
with the countries or with
the regions and be like
North America East is
dominating in these top threes?
Because that's when you
start looking at points
allocations or number of
allocation for spots and
stuff and be like,
look at how many the East
or Europe is running away.
I think that would be interesting.
Even though it's just top three,
I think that could also be
another leaderboard that, um,
helping makes.
Yeah.
Or we could get Holly on this.
There you go.
We'd know it and be able to
talk about it throughout the weekend.
Um,
the different ways and maybe that
you're right.
It's only top three,
but maybe it lends itself a
little bit to the strength of region and,
and how much,
how many places it should get.
Who knows?
At this point,
it's just data that would be cool to see,
I think, regardless of prize or whatever.
We're actually coming to the
end of the show,
which is pretty quick for
us on Games Week,
but not a lot's happened this weekend,
so we're good.
I think it came out this afternoon.
Carolyn sent us a DM about
John Woolley had a
a video that went up on his
constantly varied conversations.
And he talks about the
expectations before you get to the games,
what happens when you get to the games,
and then he had like a rant at the end.
And specifically about the rant,
it was that Dave is using
his personal Instagram
account to make CrossFit
Games announcements.
And
Wooley said, I, for one,
am blocked from those announcements.
And if he initiates it and
collaborates with CrossFit
Games and whoever else,
because he initiates it,
the people that he has
blocked cannot see those posts,
regardless of who it's collaborated with.
Should CrossFit be using his
personal Instagram account
for CrossFit games news?
I mean,
if that's the route they want to take,
he needs to unblock everybody.
It needs to be,
that needs to be completely open.
Why does he have people blocked?
I don't understand.
Carolyn,
do you have thoughts or you want to pass?
I mean, I kind of agree.
Like everyone should have access to the,
to the information, all the hints,
everything.
So whether it's making
another account or not sure
what the solution is there.
Cause I didn't know that
about like if CrossFit
games shared that people
would be able to see, like,
I didn't even cross my mind.
that that was a problem with
um people that were blocked
so I just thought it was
interesting I was like oh I
didn't look at it from that
way so john young says
wooly is a rough listen
that's personal opinion um
I'm blocked from 2019 I
just made a different
account so I can see
important things and that's
great that you were able to
do that but we shouldn't
have to do that right
especially if you're an
athlete and you happen to get blocked,
like as an athlete,
you should get the
information along with
every other athlete or have
access to that information
the same as every other athlete.
John asked if I gave event
four a go and no, I didn't yet.
I did think it was
interesting that the
females had 30 cows to 50,
but I think that that's
smart because there's the
same amount of rope climbs
for the men and 25 rope
climbs for men versus 25
rope climbs for the females
is not the same.
So I think that going a
little bit lower on the cows is smarter,
especially because some of
the men can really pull
that skier much more than the females,
but I will have to give it a go.
Jonathan Ortega,
the same with all socials.
It's his personal account.
He can put out whatever he wants.
It just so happens he puts
out CrossFit info.
I get it that you're allowed
to put whatever you want on
your own social media account,
but if you are giving
official CrossFit Games information,
it's probably that he
doesn't even know when he
collaborates with the games
that his blocks carry over.
I'm betting he doesn't even know.
Yeah.
I didn't know that until today.
So John says in 2019,
he went on a blocking rampage.
I may or may not have
commented on the
programming leading up to the cuts.
This was before I was ever on a podcast.
Yeah.
I mean, that just seems spiteful.
Like for,
I just don't think he needs to
black anybody like you
black people so that you
don't see their stories.
Right.
That's why I would block
somebody if I didn't want
to see their stuff anymore.
You don't want to see their comments.
That's why you block someone.
You don't want to see their
comments on your stuff anymore.
And he can block whoever he wants.
I could give two shits about
who he blocks.
My point is, he runs the CrossFit Games.
The CrossFit Games has an
Instagram account.
If you're going to release stuff that's
information to the athletes,
it should be released on
the game site and then
collaborated with Dave.
Yeah.
If he wants to keep doing it
so that the unblocked,
so the unblocked people
following the CrossFit game
site get that information
and he can still have them
blocked on his personal account.
So,
that just, and maybe they fixed that.
Maybe he didn't even know
this existed in this way.
Like that, that was the,
the way that Instagram works.
Cause I did, I did not know that.
I just think you should unblock everybody.
If it's his personal account,
I think he can do whatever
he wants to do.
But if you're putting out
CrossFit Games information,
it needs to be available to everyone.
So either you choose to
unblock and keep posting it there,
or you move it to the
CrossFit Games IG account
where people can see.
Yes, one or the other.
So...
a couple quick hitters to go
um waterpalooza socal has
announced the swag that the
competitors are getting as
well as uh the volunteers
um competitors if you sign
up for any of the community
events you get a shirt you
get some shoes and you get
some sunglasses
Volunteers get a couple hats,
a couple pairs of sunglasses, some shoes,
and it looks like a lot of shirts.
Did we figure out the options?
From what I'm seeing, it's not options.
It is, this is the package.
I didn't see that.
I mean,
I think it's great that here's
giving these packages of
shoes and shirts and, you know,
10 sunglasses for all the events.
I don't know that I need all
those sunglasses as an athlete,
but pretty cool.
Maybe they're trying to get
rid of some inventory, but it's great.
It's great that the
volunteers are getting all of that.
I mean,
I was going to say you probably
need a change of clothes,
but this is the SoCal one, right?
Yeah.
So it's not the,
the raining Florida that
you might need all that change of clothes,
but I mean, you might be sweating a lot.
So yeah, I like it.
Yeah.
I, when I was a volunteer,
like you're sweating just
as much as an athlete,
a change of shirt would be
really cool throughout and
have a couple for the
weekend and not have to go
do laundry would be great.
Yeah.
maybe you want to color
coordinate your sunglasses
um so then the last couple
things we have on the
agenda are from the masters world
Quick hitters,
Marcia Van Gleinen-Weigel
was disqualified from the
Masters CrossFit Games.
She had failed a drug test
back in 2021 during the
European Masters
Weightlifting Championships.
This news was broken by barbell spin,
and she went on a rampage
blaming barbell spin for
her being disqualified from
the CrossFit Games.
It wasn't the barbell spin
that failed a drug test,
and it didn't hold a
competition in which she
did fail it where she could
appeal to him.
So I don't know how she
makes that correlation,
but she has been removed.
She was in the 55 to 59-year-old division.
And then she made fun of
Spin's squats on his thrusters,
which no call for that.
Yeah.
If she's going down,
she wanted to make sure
everyone was going down.
She's like, you called me out.
I'll find anything on you
and call you out.
Yeah.
She tried to kill her from a
bad perspective.
I mean, to her credit,
I think Brian can go lower
on his thrusters.
So I will agree with that.
But it doesn't justify a failed drug test.
And she wasn't set up for a
failed drug test like she
was insinuating.
Yeah.
And it doesn't... Brian's
squat depth does not stop
the fact that he is the one
breaking news left and
right in this world and is
really good at it.
And...
And he just broke the news
that she had committed.
Um, and she knew she failed that test.
Like when you sign up for the games,
you know, that's on your record.
All right.
So then the other thing that,
that barbell spin broke
this week was the backfill
process that got all janky
in the 35 to 39 year old division.
So the way this plays out is
Jasmine Sheehan qualifies
for the CrossFit Games as a
Masters athlete.
She's also on a team.
She declines her invitation
to the Masters CrossFit
Games because she's going team.
Right after that,
Chantal Bouchard receives an email saying,
be prepared.
You're the next one up if
someone else declines or
something else happens.
Jasmine's teammate pops for PEDs,
and they become ineligible
to go to the CrossFit Games on a team.
She notifies CrossFit that
she wants to rescind her decline.
Jamie Hygieia then hurts her
shoulder and has to
withdraw from the CrossFit Games.
The backfill spot goes to
Jasmine after declining
instead of Chantal.
I think this is criminal.
I just am wondering why the
heck they all of a sudden
this year are trying to
backfill up to 40th place
when last year they had
plenty of time to backfill
China chose spot and did
not choose to do any
legwork to fill that spot.
Because it's not the
CrossFit Games running, it's the Masters,
and they'll take the most
amount of people to fill
for the money-wise.
I know both athletes.
I'm good friends with Jasmine.
It's an unfortunate
circumstance that I think
she should have accepted
both if I was in her position.
I get it costs money,
but once she had qualified for a team,
Her sole focus was the team
CrossFit Games.
Later on, they did pop, like,
Tyler Lee popped.
I think it's still under appeal.
It's not yet official.
It's tough because I feel
the spot should go to Chantel, like,
by the rules that they have in place.
However,
who's going to get a better –
who's going to help bring, like,
the competition level up?
It's Jasmine.
Like, she's a top 10 –
games athlete in that age
group versus a 42nd place.
So she brings up the level higher,
but it's tough because I
think once you decline,
I don't know if you should
have a second opportunity.
It just, it sucks that that happened,
but that was her decision
to decline in the first
place is how I view it.
But I'm happy for her that
she gets that opportunity
to compete at the games.
I think a rule is a rule.
And if you want to be a sport,
you've got to follow the rules.
And if you think that you
messed up and the rule
should be different,
there should be a process
in changing that rule for the next year.
But there was documentation
sent to Chantal and that she was up next.
And then for them to go back on that,
to go to an endeavor,
different direction.
Not only are you changing the rule,
but you sent documentation
and you're going against
the documentation you sent.
Yeah, that's the problem.
They didn't have to send Chantel an email.
The fact that they did and said get ready,
it's the CrossFit Games' fault to
you know, they,
they went back on the word
and they took Jasmine.
Like it's not Jasmine's fault.
Like she asked, she was like, Hey, is it,
you know,
is it too late to get my spot back?
And then something happened
and they had like, it's not like,
if there's no wrong in asking if I'm,
if I'm Jasmine in that
position and I lost my spot on a team.
So I'm going to go see if
it's still available, you know?
Like it's almost like your
ex is still available after,
after something happens,
but invite them both.
I think CrossFit messed up.
Like it's,
you almost have to invite them
both because I don't think
what they did is fair to Chantel.
Yeah.
I, man, you,
you bringing up your ex like that,
that would put it, you decline.
You say, sorry, I'm going in.
I'm, I love her more.
I'm going over here.
And then whoop,
You still available?
Yeah.
Got cheated on, so you come back.
Still available?
Can I?
Yeah.
I don't know.
At the end of the day,
why not just bring them both?
You know, between now and then,
one person's probably not
going to make it there.
So why not just bring them
both at this point?
After this mess up, just do that.
And then change the rule to
whatever to be what you
want it to be next year.
And then adhere to it going forward.
So there is a, so Julian,
I've heard asked this question.
Do you guys think there's a
seven verse since he was
the first CrossFit podcast
and everything else was born from that?
I don't think he was the first there's was,
and that's what I just want.
I, and it's been talked about below.
Barbell shrugged came way before that.
Um, Armin hammer has been around forever.
Um,
And yeah,
the CrossFit podcast was before a lot,
but like coffee pods and wads.
And I started before Savon
started his podcast.
Nobody just knew who we were at that,
that point in time.
So, um, so yeah, there,
there were lots of podcasts out there, um,
before even the CrossFit podcast started.
um okay uh so the after party
It was announced this week
yesterday that there's an
after party at the CrossFit
Games at Billy Bob's,
which I've been to in my past.
It is a massive, massive honky tonk.
It's got like three stages
and bunches of stuff, restaurant inside,
a whole bunch of stuff.
But it is.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's happening the last night,
Sunday night from 9 p.m.
to 2 a.m.
You can get your tickets at CrossFit,
I believe, dot com.
There it is.
Are you going to go?
I went to one after party
and I realized that I am
way too old for that stuff these days.
it's just, the music was so loud.
I couldn't even talk to anybody.
Um, and at that point,
like that took all the fun
of it out for me.
Um,
so there's like the official after party.
And then a lot of times
there's like another after party,
like that,
the most of the athletes go to like a,
like it was like a more private event.
It'll be interesting whether, you know,
for the first year,
if more athletes go to this one.
It is a massive place.
Like it would fit a lot of
people and you could
probably hide the athletes
in their own area.
It's so big.
But yeah, I am not going,
I will tell you right now,
my flights Monday morning at some point,
I'm just going to go back and
do this show Sunday night.
Cause we'll be back next Sunday night.
Uh, at the same time,
right after the CrossFit games are over,
breaking it all down Sunday night,
CrossFit talk every week.
And we are probably going to
do some mid afternoon shows
throughout the week.
We're going to look at the
schedule and see where it
best fits in to not collide
with everybody and to, uh,
get in where we can.
Um,
I'll probably do a lot of
that live from the media
room right there in Dickies.
So that's our show.
Heading to Fort Worth Wednesday morning.
I'll be there on the ground
sometime Wednesday afternoon.
I've already booked Tristan
Patrick to talk a little
bit about his journey down there.
I'll talk with Hattie,
a short little interview
we're going to do there.
And then whatever else happens, happens.
I have no plans.
Probably go over and give
John some crap at the barbell spin booth.
Tell him his picks suck and
that Saxon's going to win
the whole thing.
Just so I can give it back
to him like he's been giving it to me.
