incredible athlete by us.
Yep.
And she has a match this weekend.
Everybody should go check her out.
She's awesome.
dude um she is awesome she's quite awesome
she has one of the best senses of
humor of a lot of people that i've
met like she every time i get a
chance to hang out with her um she
cuts up and it's fun love it yeah
what like truly make me laugh she's she's
good it's funny because i've
been friends a long time and i've seen
her through this covering her and and
stuff in the sport where like a complete
elation when she made the games as a
team complete um emotional let down when
her teammate got hurt at the games and
they couldn't compete
like just a ton of like ups and
downs with her and she's an amazing person

people on the internet she's fantastic so
um yeah definitely gonna check her out

the strength athlete and she kicks ass
period hundred percent she's fun to watch
Okay, guys, stop making me blush.
Love you both.
Yes, friends.
Watch our grid match live.
Shout out to Clydesdale Media for
sponsoring me this season.
Um, if you've never looked,
I have no idea what's going on in
grid.
I have several friends that do it.
Um, as a fact,
Hannah Hardy is substituting on a,
on a grid team this, uh, this weekend,
Lauren, uh, John young, uh, my boy Taylor.
So I liked several people.
I love watching it.
I have absolutely no idea what's going on
most of the time.
And I don't care because it's exciting.
It's fun to watch.
The best part about Grid is it is
start, finish an hour long.
Maybe hour fifteen, right?
And that's the piece that I think CrossFit
is missing with excitement for their
events is
how can it be a sit down event
i've told you i've dove into f-one because
a race is start finish ninety minutes yep
once every couple weeks it is i can
commit that amount of time absolutely
unless you're a nerd like us you've got
to i mean you have to sit down
for an entire weekend
It's a lot of mood and life is
still going on.
If you're not specifically going to be at
the event,
everything else is still happening.
Yep.
So like, especially like people, man,
do you see this at, you know,
whatever competitions?
Like, no,
I was at my child's softball game.
No, I did not see that.
And for me, especially like, it is really.
I don't say time consuming,
but I am really hard pressed to try
to go back and watch it again.
Like watch it after it happened.
I am not usually good with that unless
it's the games, the games.
I absolutely will.
Lewis Hamilton's win was life-changing.
Yeah, for people who don't follow F-One,
Lewis Hamilton, seven-time champion,
got his first win in a Ferrari,
which is a big deal.
He grew up loving Ferrari and switched
over two years ago from Mercedes to
Ferrari and got his first win.
And the car was dominant.
Ms.
Lauren Olsen,
are you going to Monster Games?
Am I going to see you at Monster
Games?
Yes.
I feel like Cassian Taylor commentators do
a wonderful job explaining what's
happening each race.
You have some sort of idea what's coming
next.
Their commentating is top-notch.
I think the grid broadcast is really a
great example of both entertaining and
factual.
Not an easy thing to do.
Yeah.
Yes, Amanda.
That's all we've been talking about.
Yeah.
No MG this year.
I'm sure I'll be there spectating, though,
and we'll come hug you.
She gives the best hugs, too.
Sign me up.
I'm in.
Before I got on, dude,
I hate my job so much.
So much.
If I wasn't this close to retirement,
I would lose.
I was the either head trainer or over
training for seventeen years of my career.
When I came to my new job,
I said,
I will do anything you ask of me.
I just don't want to train ever again.
Period.
Well, today I had to do a training.
natural got all the stuff you got all
my stuff prepared all that stuff i go
it was like a conference type setting i
go five minutes in a person comes over
and goes oh we forgot to tell you
you got bumped can you do next month
instead you mean i wasted all this time
and energy to do something i hate doing
and you're gonna bump me yes indeed oh
i was so pissed i did the one
thing that you at that i asked you
specifically not to do and i'm doing it
anyway and now i'm not actually doing it
even though i you yeah that's way too
much that's a lot
I'm good at it.
I am good at training.
I talk to people.
I do this all day.
Talking publicly is not a big deal for
me.
I just hate it.
It is like the eyelash in Carolyn's eye
from Sunday night.
Just an irritant.
My wife had one the other day and
she kept doing this.
Something in my eye.
I was like, dude,
I can't see anything at all.
Yeah,
if you missed the beginning of Sunday
show,
Carolyn was out for like ten minutes.
Girl can play hockey.
She can do taekwondo.
She can do everything that CrossFit throws
at her in whatever division she's in.
Eyelash took her out.
Eyelash took her out.
That was the last straw.
Yeah.
That sucks.
Hating your job is a rough life.
Yeah.
Today I really hate it.
Other days I,
it's not terrible if they just leave me
alone.
Just let me do my thing.
Let me turn in my tickets.
Let me do my stuff.
I'm cool.
Yeah.
It's not much to ask, right?
Just let me do my stuff and going
about my business.
Yeah.
Um,
Sometimes my eyes feel like there's a
knife in them and I'm pretty sure it's
just chalk.
Well, I'm glad it's chalk.
Maybe you're using too much chalk.
Yeah,
I'm glad it's chalk and not an actual
knife because that would probably be
pretty bad.
Just saying, Amanda.
Joseph Ramirez,
I hate my job sometimes until payday.
Well,
I feel like most people hate their jobs
until payday, so...
My day job is Chinese water torture.
That's an exotic job, Vicky.
Just saying.
What Vicky and Joseph and I all have
in common is we work for the government.
You can never use too much chalk.
Andrew Sten says, Amanda,
stop acting like LeBron with the chalk.
I'm gonna tell you since I got my
started using frog grip.
I use so much less chalk.
It's ridiculous.
But now when I get if it's just
straight barbell work, though, yeah,
I would look like Tony Montana at the
end of at the end of Scarface.
Like I got it on my face.
I got it on my hands.
It's everywhere.
It's ridiculous.
I hate chalk.
Here's the thing, dude.
I sweat a lot.
So like sweatbands on, you know,
if I'm shirted or, you know,
with a shirt,
without a shirt at that point,
like it's everywhere at that point.
So like just trying to grip a barbell,
especially if I'm doing some cycling,
I have to have it because otherwise it
will come clean out of my hands.
It's happened before.
So when I use a barbell,
I never chalk ever, ever, ever, ever.
That's insane.
If I'm on the rig and I've got
this side of beef hanging,
I will put a little bit of chalk
on my hands to dry up and be
able to grip on.
But I bought a box of chalk from
Rogue for my garage gym,
and I still have probably nine-tenths of
the box.
There's no way.
There's no way Mark Phillips.
I don't touch metal without chalk.
I understand.
I understand.
Barbells, dumbbells,
not so much for whatever reason, but like,
if I got two hands on a barbell,
I am probably covered in chalk from here
down to here.
Uh, Joseph, I look like a bread baker.
Sometimes I sweat so much.
Um,
Yeah.
You and Tristan are both in that like
humid, hot, deep South.
Yeah.
It's muggy dude.
Like yesterday.
No.
Saturday morning, I'm coaching class,
and one of the coaches,
one of my best friends, Aaron,
when I tell you by the second round
of what we were doing,
he looked like he had been in a
pool fully clothed.
Like his shirt was soaked all the way
through,
and it wasn't just like it was damp.
He was dripping as he was going in
and out the door.
Dude, when we do warm-up,
I lay in Lake Schweitzer.
Yeah, I believe it.
It's ridiculous, dude.
I sweat like a pig, but I just,
honest to God, just barbell, I hate.
I don't want that much grip.
I want the barbell to, I don't know.
It's just the feel.
I hate it.
Chalk and hook grip.
Make sure I don't let go.
Tristan lost a liter of body fluid
yesterday, did a fifteen-minute AMRAP,
then a C-tube bike for ten after.
Yeah, dude.
It's easy to do.
Yeah.
What kills me is you'll be watching an
event,
and someone goes and grabs the chalk and
chalks up, and then they go like...
They do something that doesn't even
require their hands.
If you're not chalking up for box jumps,
are you really a CrossFitter, honestly?
Yeah.
I mean, come on.
I use liquid chalk in my home gym,
much less mess.
I have one of those black Ohio bars,
and I want it to stay black.
I love the sleek look of it.
but i don't know the shorty ball i
just bought is also it is black at
night but it's got two spots on it
where my hands go probably going to be
permanently white it don't matter how much
unless i wipe it down completely like wet
ragged it's it's going to be it's going
to be bad
I'm glad this was a typo,
Cows and CrossFit,
because I didn't know what you had your
wife doing for you with a fetcher squat.
But I was good to know that it
was a typo for Zurcher.
Go get it.
But I don't need to.
The knurls on that Ohio bar are still
impeccable.
Oh, I bet impeccable.
And so I don't need I don't need
by not chalking it, it stays grippy.
Let him roll with it, folks.
He also doesn't read books anymore.
Let's just move on.
I don't read books.
And I don't use chalk.
I did find out that rogue takes your
HSA, your health savings.
Yes.
and i started looking at i started making
a shopping list yes i saw that as
well um had my daughter not uh gonna
be getting braces uh next month uh we
were gonna take a look at that hsa
fund as well because uh they told me
yesterday when i got home uh jennifer and
jameson let me say
Jennifer said,
tell daddy that we got a big surprise
for you for, uh, for father's day.
I said, is it a C two bike?
Cause like,
I sounds like a pretty big surprise.
Jennifer said,
did you get me a C two bike
for mother's day?
And I said,
if I got you a C two back
from mother's dad,
I had to fight you right here in
the living room.
Like that'd been a fist fight.
So no, I did not,
but I would like one just saying.
Yeah.
Yes, Ramirez.
They take your HSA.
You have to do like a...
It's like a quick consult, basically,
with somebody just to make sure that
you're qualified to use it, basically.
But yeah, they will take your HSA card.
It's fantastic.
Yeah,
I want to get one of those foldable
racks.
Those things are nice.
So it's a full rogue rack that...
you pull a couple of pins and it
folds up against the wall.
Yep.
Space saver.
Uh, so yeah, I have enough equipment with,
for my initial four hundred K spend was
the best six hundred K spend I ever
made.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
My budget is two hundred.
So we agreed on four hundred and I
spent six hundred and that's pretty much
how that goes.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's not wrong.
No one ever folds them back in.
Ask me how I know.
Well, I don't know where you live, Ed,
but I live in the winter of the
north.
And what my thinking was is, yeah,
I probably won't fold it in every time,
but when I need to get a car
in the garage,
that space will be invaluable.
HSA and Rogue seems a little dangerous.
At some point, you have enough equipment.
Do you, though?
Do you?
Hey, bro,
bumper plates wear out eventually.
I don't know if you knew that or
not, but they will, over time,
your little circle in the middle will
start getting loose.
Rubber starts going everywhere.
Sooner or later,
that's going to be a thing.
I helped one of my best friends install
his,
and I guarantee you his is still not
folded.
It ain't never been folded back in since
we put it up.
I fold mine, but yeah, not every time.
Get the forty one and a half inch.
That is the one that's in my car
right now.
Possibly paid for by my HSA account.
Yeah.
Well,
I don't have any HSA this year because
of the heart procedure and the sinus
procedure.
But I'm hoping that now that all that
is good and I'm getting getting my health
back in order,
like I won't need it next year.
I know we won't ever be able to
use ours because my daughter's getting her
first set of braces next month.
I told my daughter you get one.
If you screw this one up,
it's on you.
It's not that.
So she's still got her two eye teeth
are still up in her gums.
So this set is going to be to
separate her teeth enough where those can
come down and
And then once that happens,
we can look and see if she's actually
going to need the next pair,
the next set, whatever,
and to straighten everything out and give
her a million-dollar smile.
And I'm like, fabulous.
You just put a corn noodle on me
for the rest of my life.
Awesome.
Thanks.
Appreciate that, Dr. Hollis.
Yay.
Meg says,
I should have all the kids' braces paid
off by Christmas.
Twenty-twenty-nine.
My son...
was supposed to have them for like a
year or two years something like that he
refused to wear his rubber bands five
years later they finally took him off
because his teeth were good this many i
don't know if you know this or not
but that's a lot like he was on
he was on visit three hundred i don't
know some ridiculous number of like sixty
two that's how many times
they his orthodontist moved twice from one
building to another building and then they
built a brand new building and he went
to visits in all three buildings that's
how long he had his braces dude when
i had mine it was get them on
get them off i'm done with this i
want to choose some bubble gum yeah
represent um
Mark says,
I paid for two sets of braces.
The only one still wears the retainer.
Fun.
My daughter, we bought the retainer,
had it fitted, went, got it,
picked it up.
Hundreds of dollars later, right?
For the retainer alone,
not even the braces part.
She lost it day two.
Oh, Meg with the headgear.
I can just picture.
Meg with the headgear.
The whole big thing around.
That actually explains a lot, Meg,
that she made you wear it to school
so you never forget it and never wear
it again.
Bet you were picking up all the boys.
Hey, what's up, y'all?
Sweet Jesus.
You can eat those, Todd Stubb.
You have some of your tots.
Get your own.
Don't start me on that because I won't
stop.
I got issues when it comes to Napoleon
Dynamite.
Moving right along.
I look like white Michael Springham.
Yes.
Yes.
From kindergarten.
oh my gosh i'm trying to remember how
jacked up were your teeth meg for real
can you go another way through high school
that's a long time all right guys um
we're off the rails already which is fine
because everybody has shown this
leaderboard but we'll show it here
here's the women's leaderboard from the
online semifinals alexis raptus is
currently in the lead erica folo alex
kazan mathilde garness jess green ariel
lowen claudia gluck and janie chevre are
currently going to the games as it stands
today but the points are very very tight
points are ridiculously tight considering
there's a three-way tie
For fifth place,
which is not actually fifth place because
Alex already qualified.
But that is bananas crazy, dude.
So my question to you is,
what was not on your bingo card?
Oh, Eric Ofola.
One hundred percent.
Like.
I really thought,
I figured Alexie Zan was probably going to
end up like fighting for first or second
places.
She was strictly doing it to try to
win money.
Matilda Garnes, absolutely.
Sure.
Not a big deal.
I get that.
And the other three,
that's down below them.
All makes sense to be, you know,
in that fight, in that hunt.
um claudia gluck after seeing janie chevry
uh live sure absolutely um she's an animal
completely did not see erica folo coming
yeah i didn't see jess green i didn't
see erica folo here's the thing i don't
even know who jess green is i know
who erica folo is that's the that's the
difference for me right like i have no
idea who jess green is good for her
like not, you know, not, not, but like,
I know who Erica Foley is,
did not see her,
not necessarily not qualifying,
but certainly not finishing second online.
So, yeah,
it looks like someone's been in the lab,
like working her tail off.
Good for her.
She didn't do much.
She didn't do any in person.
Did she?
Not that I know of.
She must've been just,
three times a day hitting it getting ready
for this one shot well she's i can't
don't do it don't do it i'm not
i'll say this she looks like she's adopted
the uh or it appears that she's adopted
the whole work in silence and you know
don't never let them see next move type
deal because that's impressive
Considering the company, right?
Alexis, Alex, Matilde, Ariel,
that is some pretty high company to be
in.
And to finish up that Claudia,
to finish where she did,
I didn't see that coming at all.
Yeah.
Daniel says,
does this mean Jenny got in on a
technicality since Alex already has a
ticket?
That's how I see it.
If the leaderboard were finalized now,
of course I wouldn't call it a
technicality.
I,
I think the rule is stupid that allows
Alex Kazan to compete just for money.
It just,
it's another thing that makes explaining
what we do confusing.
Yep.
And
I've used this example.
If I'm the Chicago Bears and I win
the NFC North with five games left to
go in the season,
I can't go to the NFC South and
try to win that division too.
Or just win whatever bonuses I got because
that's all she was doing.
She was just literally trying to win
money.
That's all she wanted.
But they let her.
I mean,
that's how the rules are set up.
And I agree.
It's absolutely insane.
It should be, at the very minimum,
it's the Wilson-Pock rule.
Oh, you're already qualified?
Cool.
You don't get to do this.
I don't give a damn if there's money
involved or not.
Sorry, you don't get to do this.
Moving right along.
This is for people who have not qualified
yet, especially this one.
I don't call it the last chance qualifier,
but it is the last chance qualifier.
I want to make this abundantly clear.
As I told Justin Kotler last night,
I do not blame Alex.
No, not at all.
Allow her to do this.
And if you want to go get money
and the rules allow you to do it
more power to you.
It's just a dumb rule.
Yeah, absolutely.
Kudos to her for, for,
for giving it a shot.
Like, Hey, I'm going to go.
And like somebody said in the chat,
that's what she said.
I don't want their spot.
I want their lunch money.
Good on her for doing that.
I'm not mad at her whatsoever.
I just think it's a dumb rule.
It's absolutely ridiculous.
Just on the outside looking in is Maddie
Faust, Bear Gross, Bjorn's daughter,
Holly Tynan, Elena Caratala,
Carolyn Stanley.
There's ties all over the place in this
thing, man.
There really are.
Rebecca Vitteson.
One, two, three.
There's another tie.
There's another tie.
Yeah, it's crazy.
Sydney McElishan, Gracie Walton, Rolf,
Trista.
Yep.
So that's the women's side.
On the men's side...
Again,
I saw comments already that this isn't
going to stay the same because they've
already looked at videos.
Guy Mejiaos is first, Quinn Robinson,
Nick Matthew, Justin Medeiros,
Spencer Panczyk, Colton Mertens,
and Pat Vellner.
Yeah.
And if anybody says anything other than
Guy as being a shock to being at
the top of this list,
y'all are delusional.
Yeah, I wouldn't have him at the top.
No.
There's no way.
After seeing Quinn Robinson in person,
a hundred percent.
I get it.
Like dude's fit.
He's fit.
He's strong.
He's all of the things.
He just can't do a handstand pushup,
whatever.
Not a big deal.
We can, we can work around that.
Yeah.
I, I think he's,
I think it doesn't surprise me that he's
in the top ten,
but winning it is a shock to me.
Correct.
Correct.
I'm not saying the dude's not fit by
a stretch of the imagination,
but nobody was expecting that whatsoever.
And if you say you were,
you're lying or you're resilient.
The men's leaderboard... Oh, what's wrong?
Gosh, dang it.
okay now i've just uh yeah things i
don't want to click it happens okay let's
try this again the men's leaderboard will
change after the reviews gee nick matthews
and pat v are in trouble i want
to i want to
I hate saying these things live on the
air because I think it makes people then
go look and those people just get buried,
right?
And then there's not an equal distribution
of review throughout the leaderboard.
And I think for this to work,
there should be an equal distribution down
the leaderboard checking all the videos
because all the scores matter.
Just like,
I think it's John George that said,
Alex Kazan scores should be scrubbed.
Every point hurts with that kind of
scoring.
So every person she beats gets one point
penalty.
Yeah.
If it affects the leaderboard,
then you need to look at it.
End of story.
It's simple.
If your score affects the leaderboard one
way or another, then...
And your videos need to be looked at,
period.
And it needs to be within the rules,
right?
No, none of the slow, super slow-mo,
pause it.
If we've seen, if we're hitting death,
all that nonsense that people do,
unfortunately,
that you're not supposed to do.
If you've taken the judge's course,
it's into the online portion.
You're supposed to watch it through at
full speed, plain and simple.
If you're just going to fix the
leaderboard.
Yep.
Amanda says Colton falling off their open,
still making the cut is wild unofficially.
So I have something for you,
since you said that,
that I've found even more wild than
Colton.
Did you see Mathilde Garnas,
one of my favorite athletes ever,
do box jumps?
I did not.
Come on.
There we go.
Wow.
Oh.
She passed out at the top of the
box.
Now watch.
Oh, I still got more to do.
Down I go.
And up.
Yeah, she got Taylor's help.
Can you believe that it,
but she kept going.
Yeah.
That's actually, so Taylor,
when Taylor did it,
he landed and then slowly kind of just
fell off.
Like she landed and then fell over
backwards,
landing on apparently her neck that did
not look good at all.
Holy smokes.
Ladies and gentlemen,
if you ever want to know what full
stand looks like,
it ain't gotta be real fast.
Yeah.
So you have full effort and that's what
that is right there.
You want to say that these athletes are
spoiled and pampered and blah, blah, blah.
Colton falls off a rope.
Matilde falls off a box out cold and
does more burpees.
Yeah.
Got up and was like, Oh no,
I'm not done.
I'm not done.
Did you see that Colton, uh,
like posted that video and said,
this is not like, uh,
this is not a skit.
Like I, I actually fell off the rope.
Like this is my actual workout.
Cause people thought he was messing with
people.
Cause he does that.
He will do that kind of shit.
He's like, no, no, no, no.
This is for real.
I fell off the rope and still is
finishing in sixth place.
And he's an, and he's a,
he's a monster.
Uh, talk about going to a dark place.
Yeah.
Going to a dark place and then making
yourself comfortable there because if you
fell off the box backwards because you
basically passed out, rolled over,
got back, and was like,
I still need to keep going,
you're comfortable there.
Like, not a big deal.
This is what we're doing.
I don't know if you saw the
behind-the-scenes of Amy Kringle training.
Have you seen it?
No, I have not.
I didn't know such a thing was a
thing.
Yeah,
it's – I'm going to share my screen
here.
So I don't know if you can see
that.
Damn, I forgot my headphones.
I want it that way.
Tell me why ain't nothing but a heartache.
Tell me why ain't nothing but a mistake.
Tell me why I never want to hear
you say I want it that way.
Probably won't get dinged playing that
either.
Isn't that freaking awesome?
That's amazing.
I can just picture you doing that at
the gym.
I've done that at the gym.
Music stopped for whatever reason.
I'm absolutely saying that has a hundred
percent been a thing.
You can ask any one of my,
anybody that's ever been in one of my
classes, if the music stopped, no worries,
y'all.
I got you.
I've also done it when the music hadn't
stopped,
like during warmups and shit like that.
I'll just go to singing out of my,
out of my brain.
Like that's, yeah, it's fine.
Uh, Daniel Arnson can relate to Matilde.
Uh, he came close to passing out,
getting up from his chair too fast.
Sometimes it be like that, bro.
Um, yeah.
Hexie lover.
Maybe Matilde drank third Z before box
jumps and it kicked in too soon.
That's a thing you got to be careful
about with third Z.
You gotta be responsible.
It is so good at what it does
by helping you get a good night's sleep.
If you drink it too soon or too
early in the day,
you might get a mid box jump.
You might get a good afternoon sleep
instead of a good night's sleep.
And out you go.
Yeah.
But she recovered quickly because of all
that collagen protein and right back to
the burpees.
A hundred percent.
And you can get it for fifteen percent
off using promo code Jazzy at checkout or
go to thirdsy.com backslash Jazzy.
Fifteen percent off.
Fifteen, baby.
So.
So.
And she did.
Mathilde used Jazzy because we're friends.
A hundred percent.
Why do I constantly confuse Grace Walton
and Amy Kringle?
Because you need glasses?
Yeah.
That's an excellent question.
I have absolutely no idea.
Because I... Grace isn't a close talker.
She doesn't back me up over a box.
Yeah.
all up in your all up in your
personal space yeah also isn't gracie from
isn't gracie australian yeah yeah and amy
from the island man oh yeah amy's from
the island man which i don't know if
you know this now but that's on completely
opposite sides of the planet so there's
that as well i mean they both do
crossfit do you get all crossfit chicks
confused like i can understand that could
be a thing i guess
Daniel wants to know if he mixes his
pre-workout and thirdsy,
would it be like mixing an upper and
a downer?
Would I be able to click RX plus
if I complete the session doing that?
No,
but you may pass out at the top
of the box,
wake up and then be able to do
more burpee box jump overs because it's
that roller coaster.
You're riding the snake.
I'm going to say that it's probably not
a great idea.
It sounds like a waste of both thirdsy
and your pre-workout.
Probably not the greatest thing in the
whole world.
It's like a bong rip and an espresso
in the morning.
I wouldn't know, but... Yeah,
I believe you.
But...
I used to confuse Vellner and the
professor.
Bro.
I mean, they're both Canadian.
But I don't think that counts.
One's six inches taller.
One is way paler.
way ginger yeah one of them looks like
an accountant because he is an accountant
wow apparently ramirez gets uh mistaken
for dallin pepper all the time i'll
understand dude i get it i get it
i get i get matt fraser on a
regular basis everybody's like man
I can't believe you're here.
Shouldn't you be in Vermont somewhere?
Yeah, probably should.
Someone thought I was Andy Thor's
daughter, so... I don't know.
I can see where they would have made
that distinction.
I don't know.
There's a lot of posts out there right
now with the videos.
It's hard to follow them all.
I do take exception.
So, Vellner on his last box jump,
Hiller says he jumped off.
It looked more like he fell one foot
first to the other.
I don't know if I would call that
a jump off.
Now,
most of those things Hiller has right
down.
to the standards and all that kind of
stuff, right?
That's going to be subjective.
Because one foot came before the other.
It looked more like a stumble down than
a step down.
I've gotten credit in person for a stumble
down.
I'm just saying, instead of a step down.
Yes, like Wayne said, controlled fall.
Hiller apologized for that.
Oh, I didn't see that part.
So much the better.
Again,
I was preparing for a training that I
was to end up not doing.
Yeah.
I'm mad at Pat still,
but I want him to make it one
last time.
Why be mad?
Why waste our time being mad?
Does he owe you money?
What are you mad at him for?
I don't understand.
Trust me, Daniel.
I've made a lot of stupid decisions in
my life that I have regretted.
Thank goodness that there's grace in the
world and I can be forgiven for that.
I cannot think of a possible reason why
I would be mad at somebody I don't
know, first of all.
unless there's plenty of people i'm mad at
that i know i don't need to waste
it i don't know plenty enough time for
that i mean unless they've done something
completely heinous like you know some kind
of like mass murderer type stuff like yeah
okay i don't like that guy at all
but i can't fathom being like legitimately
angry at a crossfit games athlete
whom I'll more than likely never meet.
And even if I do,
I'm not going to know him long enough.
Unless they walk up and kick me dead
in the balls, okay,
that could be a problem.
But other than that, dude,
I don't get it.
Because I like being mad, Scott.
Let me have my emotions.
Uh-oh, now I've made Daniel mad.
Now he's mad at you.
Yeah.
Ken Walter sometimes gets mistaken for an
old man all the time.
Yeah, but a jacked old man.
He's a big dude.
Yeah.
Doggone it.
I'm mad at Emma Carey almost killing me
at Granite Games.
I'm so mad at you, Andrew Sten,
for no repping her.
She could have won Granite Games that
year, but you took it away from her.
How dare you, Anderson?
Being a judge with standards and ethics
and morals.
What are you thinking?
You no good, SOB.
You no good, SOB.
How dare you?
I'm not mad at her,
but I'm still so sad Mal O'Brien quit.
I'm just happy she's happy.
She's a child.
So the fact that she took time to,
like, figure herself out,
whatever that ends up looking like,
good on her.
She's a child.
Like, they could have ended way worse.
Kenneth Lapp heard that Emma Carey quit
CrossFit because Andrew Stone.
Yeah.
It lingered,
it lingered so long that she was finally
like, you know what?
I just can't deal with it.
I just can't deal with it anymore.
Uh,
I'm mad at Julie Foucher for rupturing her
Achilles.
I'm not gonna give us,
it gave us a fantastic, uh,
robe t-shirt with her doing that handstand
walk on her, uh, in the boot.
That was pretty damn cool.
It was Daniel was,
it was a glass case of emotions.
Yeah.
And what was cool was that a couple
months later, she was my L one instructor.
Julie was was she still in the boot?
She was still in the boot.
Still working out at lunch in the boot.
Oh, yeah, I got to.
Or as Pat Vellner would say in the
boot, the boot in the boot.
The what the boot?
The who?
So if you guys remember Amy,
who was on this show for a while,
her and I took her out one together.
And she is the biggest Julie Fouché fan
in the world.
Like stalker-esque.
No, just kidding.
I've met Amy.
She's probably stalker-esque.
We can go with that.
It's fine.
And in the first breakout session,
Julie was my instructor in that group.
and uh and it was what was it
it was uh just getting into like the
the pool position like the deadlift that
right and so to get me in the
right place she she did the
I don't know the contact cue of like
pushing my lumbar down.
And so I came back to the seat
and Amy's like,
I can't believe you got split up with
Julie.
And I was like, yeah.
And she touched my lumbar curve.
Not only that,
Not only did she instruct me,
she put her hand on my lumbar curve.
Amy was so pissed.
Be jealous.
It was one of the funniest moments ever.
Be jealous.
That's fantastic.
Doesn't Julie not jive with our community
anymore?
I don't know.
I don't know.
I really don't know.
People make choices in life.
She's happy.
She was so miserable for so many years.
Finally found happiness.
Just let her be happy.
I don't really care if she does or
not.
I have so little time, which is none,
to be completely honest,
with people who don't appreciate what we
do to hell with them.
we will welcome you in if you want
to come.
And if you don't like it,
you don't have to, that's cool too.
Good for you.
Moving right along.
Yeah.
Um,
Julie and I became Julie Foucher and I
became friends over the years.
And, um, I, I was on her podcast,
uh, many years ago.
Um, and she still has it.
It's just more focused on the medical side
of her life now.
Well, she is Dr. Julie Foucher.
So that makes sense.
Yeah.
And she's recently got married and, uh,
she's pregnant or has just given birth or
one of those things.
It's hard for me to stay up with
all that,
but at some point she's got a child.
Yeah.
Um, so yeah.
So Daniel,
I think the whole thing was COVID split
the country that,
and she was on one side and people
were on the other.
And then she was with wild health.
She was doing stuff with them and they
were very much a part of the community.
They were a sponsor of the games.
then there was a thing where wild health
became more of a CrossFit health and they
tried to like integrate themselves within
the CrossFit community and that ruffled
some feathers.
And so people were then again,
picking sides, all of that stuff.
Um, if it were my guess,
I don't think she hates CrossFit.
I don't think,
I think she loves what it did for
her.
I think she loves it as a fitness,
um,
thing it's just her priority shifted when
she found happiness found love they had i
think they adopted a child and then now
she's pregnant so her priorities just
focused refocused seasons of life baby
i've never heard her bad mouth crossfit
right and we have heard other people
bad mouth CrossFit that used to be games
athletes.
Yeah.
But people love the CrossFit Medical
Society.
What's the difference?
It's a big difference.
CrossFit Medical Society is more about the
funding.
Wild Health was more about preventative
medicine as opposed to reactive medicine.
I did Wild Health for a couple years.
It is really cool.
They sponsored the show for a while.
They did.
And I got my DNA taken,
and it gives you what the likelihood of
this or that is based on your DNA.
It was actually really, really cool.
The only problem I ever had with Wild
Health is the demand was so great,
and they couldn't get enough doctors to
meet that demand,
so the wait times got to be long.
It's an interesting problem to have.
Yeah, and they're still around.
They're still around.
Well, good for them.
So, yeah.
But it's a cool thing.
Yeah.
With that, I guess, shoot,
we're at the end of the day.
Time to get back to work.
Time to go prepare for something that
they're going to cancel anyway.
That's my whole job right now because
there's a governor's election in November.
So our administration is changing.
Our governor is finishing up his second
term.
So he cannot rerun.
So we are getting a whole new boss
come January.
And all these projects we're working on
will probably be scrapped.
And we're going to start anew with the
new guy.
As they all want to do whenever that
kind of stuff happens.
Yeah.
With that,
hope everybody has a great CrossFit day.
Hope your workouts are going awesome.
After this morning,
I need a good workout this afternoon.
Absolutely.
So with that,
hope you guys have a great one.
Don't forget to use that code Jazzy at
checkout with Thirdsy.
And with that,
I'll see everybody next time on Lunch with
the Clydesdale and the Cowboy.
You wouldn't wait to get to the editing
room to jazz me up.
I'm already jazzy.
Midday motivation every time you press
call.
Lunch with the Glidesdale Cavalry in the
heat.
Crossfit movies, music on repeat.
Half hour hustle, yeah,

Grab a plate, shoot it,
