We also bring you Breaking News, Human Interest Stories and report on the Methodology of CrossFit. We also use the methodology to make ourselves the fittest we can be.

Well,

I got half the team back this week.

There was so much stuff going on this

weekend.

We're going to try to cover it all

tonight on Sunday Night CrossFit Talk.

what is going on everybody welcome to

sunday sunday sunday night crossfit talk

we are back and better than ever another

week in the books more tickets punched to

the games so much going on so hard

to get through everything but we're gonna

try our best to get through it all

tonight but man i haven't seen my friend

in two weeks you have not

So what is going on with you?

Last weekend, you were up at...

You were out in Del Mar.

Mm-hmm.

And you competed at Legends.

What was that like from an athlete's

perspective?

And hey, everybody, like and subscribe,

just like Vicky said.

I mean...

Competition wise, like, you know,

the venue was great.

Bob and Joe are capable of putting on

comps.

Well, like they run well, right?

Like heats are on time.

There's enough volunteers,

whether equipment's there or not is up for

debate, I guess.

So yeah,

there's a place to compete beyond that.

a lot to be desired i feel like

um i don't know what kind of i

truthfully haven't looked like too deep

into magic city to see exactly how it

was run so um but we were ranked

by alphabetical order and i think that is

just a giant slap in the face to

the athletes participating that earned

their way there,

the proper way to be seated the proper

way and compete against the

the people around them that they should

be.

And it's, it's just insane to me.

Um,

Carolyn got the better end of the stick

there because they realized,

I think they realized what they did.

It fixed for the elites.

Like James got put in the correct tee.

Um, Carolyn got the reverse order.

So she's a C she was in the

last tee,

but everyone else started with a and down

the order.

And I just, I think that's crazy.

Um,

Well, and especially,

I want to back you on this because

when it comes down to four points to

go to the games,

every competitive advantage matters in

that first day.

Right.

And to be just put in as alphabetical...

And lose that opportunity to compete

against the people you will be competing

against the rest of the weekend was a

bit,

a bit short-sighted on the part of Joe

and Bob.

It just feels like we're a bit of

an afterthought.

Like, Hey, we,

we gave you this opportunity.

Here you go.

Um, I mean,

like I'd rather not the opportunity then,

like if we aren't going to do it

professionally, let's not do it.

Let's just stay online.

I, I don't, I don't think you need,

I know there's been a lot of talk

about it needs to be funded.

So you need to have enough athletes there

to fund it.

I just, once again,

if that's the requirement,

then let's not do it.

Um, it, it,

it should be a semifinal that's in place

that that's.

decided they can support the athletes or

not.

I mean,

I realize Legends is a new one,

but like,

say you took Syndicate and they have their

number of athletes that they're handling

and you just expand it out.

To me,

the Masters should be a little bit of

an addition, not the source of it.

Like, we had more...

masters athletes than the elites did right

they had twenty in their bracket I think

that's like to me that's like a hard

line you should beyond that it starts to

mess like the leaderboard like doesn't

matter people don't want to watch it it's

four heats of the exact same thing times

twelve and it's really long days um even

in that first day I felt like they

probably could have you

double checked who checked in the night

before and condensed the heats there was a

bunch of heats that had like five or

six people why don't you combine the heats

like things like i just think you need

to be better prepared i don't know again

i just if we if we're gonna do

this it needs to be done right or

we don't do it we stay online um

Let's go, Jamie.

You crushed it.

Can't wait to hear your thoughts.

You did great, Jamie.

Daniel Arnson.

Jamie had the pleasure of working out with

the previous owners of your affiliate down

here in Myrtle, Dan and Taylor Roma.

And thank you for the four ninety nine,

Daniel.

Always appreciated.

Awesome job at Legends, Jamie.

Great job, Jamie.

The A to Z thing for the first

workout is just silly.

It's not just it was the whole day.

The first workout, honestly,

I feel like it is what it is.

To me, it was the second workout.

And it was the same thing for me

with my twenty twenty four games.

I was in the second heat.

That was of my own accord.

I was like twenty third or whatever out

of quarterfinals going in.

And I had to like battle that.

And I felt like.

I overshot on day one to the point

that it hurt my second event.

I don't think I overshot event one,

but what I did was overshoot event two

because I wasn't with the main group of

people.

I got second in my heat,

but eleventh overall.

I just think there's a possibility that

that workout goes differently if I'm on

the floor with

my group maybe goes, I don't know,

like who knows,

but it's just not something that I should

have to battle.

I earned the,

to be with the best people and that's

where I should have been.

Uh, it's just them being lazy.

Then recede is lazy work.

And I said this early on,

like the fat last week,

if you can't sort your spreadsheet by a

different column,

you need to get somebody else in there

that can, it's not a complex issue.

No.

Um,

it seems they wing it with a lot

of important stuff like seating and

programming.

One of the principles of competition is

equal rivals, uh,

cross call falls on CrossFit sport HQ to

provide the game structure.

I,

I think that's more complicated than that,

that simple phrase,

but I understand what you're saying.

Um,

They don't have an event director.

They try to do it all.

And then Larry says,

I believe Jamie would have punched her

ticket and thought this is good from

programming to drug testing and magic

city.

Yeah.

They're drug testing at magic city.

good right i mean why why one and

not the other like it's just a cluster

of what's going on right now that should

be a requirement of hq i'm sorry like

if i that should be standard across the

board i i don't understand that uh did

they ever recede yes they did after day

one day two yep

um crossfit says exit control c control v

is really easy to hit agreed uh john

george jamie you don't have to prove that

point it's been proven that being in the

proper heat or heat of equal or better

talent you'll perform better yeah yeah so

We watched, we rooted.

I screamed so loud at the TV,

hoping you could hear me all the way

in California.

I wish I could have heard somebody.

I needed somebody screaming at me.

Because I didn't realize that she had

gotten an OREP.

I didn't really even realize where she

was.

And yes, I needed.

And that's totally, I mean.

You caught her on every lunge.

If you would have just turned...

And that lunge did not look to be

laboring you.

I know.

I was fine.

I don't know why.

I just think I mentally was like...

Had told myself I was out of it

and just had given up.

And I don't know why.

That's not usually like me.

Yeah.

I just...

One,

I didn't want you to drop the bag

to, I didn't,

I wanted you to stop adjusting your belt,

but, uh, I know, I know.

I just, I,

and I know people probably know this.

You are a dear friend to me.

I care about you so much.

And I wanted you to punch the ticket

so bad.

Um,

and even Julie was yelling at the TV.

I know.

I heard that.

I was, that was so sweet.

Yeah.

so um we were uh jenny i was

screaming at you you were not close jenny

screaming ish uh larry young but a lot

of people want testing to and to me

it shows they gave effort yeah yeah i've

heard i've heard great things about magic

city so far so kudos to them

I heard Megan Apostolaris on with the

Glintons and Jenny just, what,

an hour or two ago?

Okay.

She said it was awesome from the athlete

perspective.

Good.

Now, she won her age group.

So, of course,

she's a little elated getting her ticket

to the games.

Right.

Um,

I I'd like to talk to her in

like a day or two,

kind of see where she's at at that

point.

Um, but it is what it is.

Um, Uh,

Fergie says no cheering from the press

box.

Hey, I watched WFP.

They were betting on who was going to

win each, each mat.

So, Hey, whatever.

Uh, Vicki,

I'm all about showing grace to people,

but not over really simple things that are

obvious, especially if you're,

you've organized comps before.

Yeah, I think, I think that's,

what's hard.

I mean, I understand it's a lot.

It's, it's a lot to take on.

Um, well,

and I do want to say that, uh,

know i i talked to wilson pock for

an hour on friday for people who don't

know he is the organizer of the syndicate

crown he lives like two miles from me

we talked on friday

what these event organizers have to go

through during this season to put on the

event that they do with the limited

funding that they have and all the

different things they have to look at and,

and,

and cobble together to put on a show

for all of us.

I don't want to just bash people because

that is a lot to take on.

And I,

And Joe and Bob have done it for

years in the masters division when nobody

else has done that.

But my God,

like not only taking on masters as a

ticket to the games for the first time

and taking on elites at the same time,

that is such a huge undertaking that has

to be taken so methodical and so

seriously.

So, yes.

But when you miss simple things like

sorting by seed instead of by name,

that's a simple fix that costs no money.

And anybody with three weeks of Excel

experience could do that.

Literally,

I would have done it Thursday night from

my hotel room for them.

Like,

I just, I don't know.

I don't,

I don't know what your focus is at

that point.

Are they still worried about equipment

coming in?

Are they,

are they the ones worried about the

internet or was that Savan's crew?

Like what,

what are you doing at that point?

I think you're worrying about everything

at that point,

but it's all about having the team around

you.

It's using every resource that's available

to you to, to put on the show.

Like,

I think one of the smartest things they

did was have Savan and crew with Matt

Souza do this broadcast.

Agreed.

And take it away from them and let

them worry about that because they're

really getting damn good at it.

watching the other some of the other

streams this weekend makes me appreciate

them even more they they are getting they

are starting to nail the wide shots the

split screens um sure we're working on the

clock stuff you know you're they got

thrown but we don't have internet until

halfway through exactly exactly yeah

they're bigger fish to fry than a clock

Totally agree.

They crushed it.

Um, I mean,

I even had tons of trouble trying to

watch magic city this weekend.

So,

and they only like really only showed the

one floor.

They like ended up also showing the bike

one as just extra footage.

But beyond that, you never saw,

saw the other workouts and on that,

in that crossplex.

Yeah.

I think I told you by text today

that I would propose that because I think

to make flow elite, a doable thing,

have every semifinal covered by them and

then hire Matt Sousa to come in and

make sure the stream is done.

Right.

Right.

Um,

So Eric,

this is where we're going to disagree.

Well,

I think we lose the actual race so

many times because they're too close to

the athlete.

Yeah.

He wants more wide shots.

Oh yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

We're on the same page.

We're on the same page.

Sorry.

Yeah.

It's late in the weekend.

I'm tired.

Exactly what Eric said.

I'm sorry.

Exactly what Eric said.

More wide shots.

Yeah,

they're trying to get so cute with these

showing people's feet on the runner.

And I don't need to be on someone's

running form for forty five seconds when

people are doing work in the back where

I could see at least like somebody

progress.

I don't even know who's in second because

you're just zoomed in on Amy Kringle.

Right, right.

Last year,

I actually applauded WFP for doing more

wide shots,

and they totally went backwards this year.

Totally agree.

I started, I was like, oh,

seems like they took a lot of advice.

I mean, I love the points format.

Yeah.

I love that there's not a challenger

division.

They started down the right path with a

few things and then like totally tanked it

again.

And I'm like, I'm watching, I'm screaming.

I'm like,

I had to like turn it off.

I'm like, this is not worth my sanity.

I'm every week.

Every time I try to watch CrossFit,

I just am screaming at the screen.

Like move along, move along.

What's happening behind you.

Don't know who's in second.

Oh, somebody finished.

Never saw him.

Like I'm just yelling at the screen the

whole time.

It's totally not worth my sanity.

Honestly, by middle of Saturday,

I was done with WFP.

What was the bike?

People are biking,

and the camera's going like this,

and I'm like,

I don't need to feel what they're feeling.

I got it.

I was getting vertigo just watching it.

Yeah, I...

When I had a riff on Friday,

when the cameraman was standing on the

finish line,

walking the view of the people crossing

it,

when it came down to one second difference

between first and second,

and the cameraman is on the finish line.

And that's not the shot they used.

They didn't use his shot.

They used a camera behind him so we

couldn't see anything.

I think they basically got to get those

guys off the floor.

If you have someone on the floor,

one person on the floor,

and that's like one of those split screen

zoom shots.

Because, yeah, for Savan,

they had one person.

It was either Bryson or Savan walking out

there, and that was it.

They didn't have two of them competing.

They weren't trying to get fancy shots.

They weren't

I don't, I just, it's not that difficult.

Start watching other streams.

Listen to us when we give you feedback.

CrossFed asked,

did they use him for replays?

I don't care.

Get a pylon cam, just like the NFL.

A little camera in a pylon on the

front corner of the finish line from both

sides so we can see the instant replay

finish.

I would love that.

Clear.

Or they don't even need a pylon.

Just set up a camera on the finish

line on both sides.

Oh, it was Jay.

Yeah, Jay was on.

So, like,

Bryson would be on the men's floor and

Jay would be out on the women's floor.

Yeah, they freaking crushed it.

They crushed it.

And I didn't see them block anything,

though.

No, they didn't.

I know Bryson has been around this long

enough to know where to stand not to

interfere with any of the optics of the

event itself.

But this is my biggest.

No one on the floor at all,

they have Zoom.

Yeah, I can get behind that.

Have a media pit that goes all the

way around.

People can get the angle they want and

zoom.

Yep.

Just like every other sport.

I miss Jamie.

She tells it like it is.

I try, I, you know,

I talked to a few people.

I will say this.

Um,

I heard seven this morning talking about,

um, Taylor had reached out and said,

you know,

they need to be in the community more.

It's really nice to,

to just be in the community,

be at these events.

I will say for the, in that aspect,

it was enjoyable being at legends.

I,

I had several people come talk to me.

and you know give you shout out scott

and just say they really enjoyed the

podcast um and i spoke with a few

of them uh that i you know i

feel like all i do is complain and

i i don't want to just be a

negative nancy um i've been i've been

trying to work on that it's just really

hard when like we've said the same thing

for years and you just keep seeing i'm

like literally sitting here in my living

room screaming at the tv and it's like

so frustrating and

just want them to do better like it's

yeah i don't know uh graces said i

didn't notice any particular problems with

the wfp broadcast except for continuing to

film people after they finished i don't

care about people rolling on the floor

when people are still racing hundred

percent um i watched the last event at

copa it was fun

Jenny,

there were too many photographers on the

floor at legends.

So I stayed off the floor,

not to clutter it more.

I just walked the perimeter and got what

I could.

Why would a photographer need to be on

the floor?

Because they charged two hundred and fifty

dollars for media packages.

This is that's the other thing I don't

like.

They're just milking these athletes for.

Again, yes,

it should just be a media pit.

You get what you get.

take shots of people all weekend and put

it out there for fair use.

Like, I don't, I don't like this.

Producers call it sense of place when they

show the reaction shots,

but you can get a reaction with a

zoom lens.

I can get a reaction of them crossing

the finish line and like get their

reaction.

Cool.

Literally two seconds moving on.

I do not need to see twelve seconds

of reaction when there's a water bottle

shaking a hand.

Yeah.

At that point, they've gone to too far.

Like when you finish the echo bikes,

we know what you're going to look like

on the ground.

OK, next.

Or film it and then use it later

when you're talking about them winning.

Yeah.

When there's no other action happening at

that moment.

John George is trying to get you fired

up.

I did miss the Fergie question of the

week.

Where was it?

I didn't even see it.

Yeah.

There's so many comments.

It's flying by.

Can't ask it again.

Jamie,

would you rather do heavy Gwen or jockey

the sixty to one horse in the Kentucky

Derby?

I don't think I'd want to jockey a

horse in the Derby.

I feel like that would be a disaster.

I'd be that guy that fell off the

horse.

When the horse did the backflip?

Yeah.

Yeah, I guess.

I mean,

there's nothing like challenging yourself,

right?

John says, ride that horse.

So cool.

I have ridden horses, but I don't,

I don't think I'd want to race one.

Talk about.

what a sports weekend because like I never

watch horse racing,

but Julie was reading about it when we

were eating lunch on Saturday.

And so we just had it on while

we were kind of fixing dinner.

And when I, and when we came out,

the race was about to start.

So we're like, all right,

we can watch it.

It's only two minutes.

What the most exhilarating sports moment

of the weekend for me.

I totally missed it.

I mean, I caught Savon recapping it,

and I saw your comments in there.

Yeah, I didn't watch it.

To, on the final turn,

be in seventeenth place and win the race?

My lord.

Like,

I had goosebumps watching a horse race.

Yeah, I mean, those comeback wins are...

They're kind of like little bit tearjerker

moments.

They're incredible to watch.

And then I'm a Seventy Sixers fan.

I just don't talk about it much because

they've been so disappointing for years.

And then they upset the Celtics and

knocked them out of the playoffs right

after that.

I was riding such a high last night.

I couldn't.

I couldn't even sleep.

Thank God I had Thirdsy.

And you can too.

And get fifteen percent off with code

Jazzy at checkout.

Go to Thirdsy.com backslash Jazzy and get

fifteen percent off your order.

Is there any of the salted caramel left?

I haven't checked.

I know it was low stack.

They released two lots of it.

But I don't know.

Larry Young at Magic City.

Marissa,

the smallest competitor in the building,

crushed.

Yes.

And we know your son is coaching her.

But I have loved Marissa for a long

time.

Met her when we did the semifinal

interviews.

I've interviewed her at competitions.

She is just, she's amazing.

well she's very strong for her side i

mean she's like a chris spieler you know

just incredibly strong oh still shows

available get on it folks it's the best

one um

I liked following Larry's Instagram post.

I was able to see Shelly competing.

I did not see where she finished.

Do you know where she finished?

I know.

Let us know.

Let us know where she finished.

They were still finishing up like an hour

ago.

Okay.

I don't know for age group, but like,

they're just, I mean, I got,

I've got stuff from data wad,

Holly Dugan doing yeoman's work again this

weekend boards.

Um,

so I got a bunch here to approve.

Yeah.

So they're, they're still going at it.

Um,

Fergie's talking about all the goose bump

moments,

Tim Paulson sending it on the assault

bike, uh,

Becca finishing capital at the games.

Yep.

Jeremy asks,

is that a top five games moment?

That has gotta be, um, for sure.

Yeah.

Um,

The Ole Miss reps.

I don't know what y'all talking about,

but my fave was Tia and Cara lunges.

Yeah.

Yeoman's work.

What a great phrase.

I don't know why it's stuck in my

head.

I use it all the time.

I didn't share this with you,

but I got to shout out Jen Ryan.

She reached out to me on Friday when

I was at the camp.

She's like, I'm coming over.

She asked me if I needed anything.

She was incredibly sweet.

She ended up bringing me some fruit

because I hadn't gotten like fresh fruit.

She offered Norma Tech foods,

literally anything.

She's like, what can I bring you?

It was really,

really nice to get a text from her.

that warms my heart because I know how

you feel about her.

And I introduced you guys a few years

ago and Jen Ryan's another one of those,

like just awesome people.

She is.

She looks so good.

And she seems to be in a happier

place.

Like we talked about competing and things

getting heavy and just programming in

general and stuff.

And she just,

she seems like she's content with her

decision and she seems like she's in a

happy place.

Shelly went twenty second out of thirty.

Good.

I mean,

her goal was not to finish last.

Yeah, directly.

And that's that's pretty damn good.

And she won the Gwen, right?

Pretty sure she had a at least heat

win, if not event win.

Yeah, I don't know.

biggest overachiever was forty five to

forty nine Chris real one twenty eighth

quarterfinal finish first at Magic City

Games that is pretty impressive that's

that's the other reason why I love the

opportunity for Masters to get an

opportunity to compete in person and

is online is so quirky and it's so

easily manipulated.

Yeah.

She was seated twenty-fifth and finished

twenty-second.

She did well.

Oh, third and Gwen.

Okay.

That's awesome.

Met Corey.

Great dude.

Corey is a great dude.

He really is.

He is so fun to be around,

especially at comps.

Um, where did he finish?

When I saw Friday,

he was pretty far up there.

We took third in the first event.

Okay.

And then Nate did not go well.

Okay.

And then it was playing catch up most

of the weekend.

You know how that is.

Yep.

By manipulate, you mean cheat?

Yeah,

that's pretty much what I mean about

online CrossFit.

Jeremy says Corey is the best dude.

The reason I met Corey in person was

because of Jeremy.

Was it?

Yeah, and it's weird.

Jeremy was supposed to be Corey's roommate

at MFC.

Jeremy got hurt, couldn't go to the comp.

Corey needed a roommate,

reached out to me,

and we ended up being roomies at MFC

and then became fast friends.

I love that.

John George is kidding about Bob and Joe

writing online semis, correct?

That comment up there?

A buddy of mine just said he saw

Joe and Bob at a bar writing the

online semis and stressed that they were

supposed to be submitted to HQ by this

afternoon.

I'm assuming they'll be balanced and

tested.

I think it's sarcasm at the very least.

I mean, HQ still writes...

I don't know.

Last year, they did not.

Oh, God.

Yeah, Jr, Jr should do a group.

Jr should pivot and do each group semis

instead of crucible.

I think Jr has big things in his

future.

I don't think he needs us promoting him

for other jobs.

Get hurt all over again.

Just so Corey and I could meet.

Thank you, Jeremy.

If HQ... I don't know.

I guess I don't know what they watch

or how invested they are in...

I mean,

technically your top two made it out.

So I guess you can say the programming

was fine.

Dallin and James made it out.

So if that's all of the looking that

you do and your top two made it,

so I guess the programming was fine.

So they don't need oversight.

I don't know.

So I'll take your argument and I will

be the devil's advocate and say,

we had essentially a three-way tie for the

last spot on the women's side,

which probably wouldn't have happened with

a sixth event.

Yeah.

Yeah, that three-way tie was wild.

So...

they did.

Yeah.

You can say on the men's side,

we got the right people.

Are you as confident on the women's side?

And I don't like to, I,

I heard Hiller's argument about Daniel

didn't make it.

So the programming is wrong.

I don't put names into it.

Yeah.

I don't know that Danielle should be your

barometer anyway.

And in the talk all seems to be

about the first event.

And I don't think people are looking into

the first event and well enough,

like Kristen Pan chick won that event.

I won that event.

You're like,

it was a fitness and it was a

double under event.

If I'm being completely honest,

like you had to be fit enough to

get through the machines,

but you had to be willing,

like you had to be good at dubs

fatigued.

So I'm not putting Danielle's name into

it.

I'm just saying there were so many

complaints about only five events.

And I think that played out on the

women's side of the elite.

one more event,

one more event could have settled that.

And maybe in a way that it didn't

even look close.

I don't know.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I mean, they had, I don't know.

I mean,

it sounds like there was supposed to be

six events.

So again,

you just think this would be stuff that

HQ would look at and have some questions.

Yeah.

little oversight maybe you want to have

some oversight into the online semis well

before we dive too far into all the

negativity let's talk about the events i'm

gonna i'm gonna talk about what i'm gonna

say is the least important one first just

because there's nothing on the line for

this at this point and that's wfp

because it is a three tour season and

the points keep accumulating throughout

the season.

So this is really just the first third

of the leaderboard.

And there were some great races,

especially on the women's side.

So here's how it ended up in London.

Amy Kringle took the win.

Laura Horvat in second.

Emma Tall in third.

Emma Tall is healthy.

You can tell she's healthy.

She looked it.

I think there were some big surprises.

And that is,

you have to scroll a long way to

find Ariel Loewen.

Yeah,

that one was a shocker to me a

little bit.

Phoebe Segoffi.

Yep.

Like that surprised me a little bit.

Kerstetter,

that was her third week in a row

of competing.

I talked to Emily the end of last

week, Emily Rolfe.

It was her third week in a row

of competing.

That's gotta be insanity.

I was shocked.

Yeah.

That some of these people are competing

back to back to back like that with

it's not just that it's the travel

involved too.

Like you had to go to London for

this.

And let's look at the men real quick

and then we'll talk about kind of the

stuff surrounding it.

Roman Krennikoff won.

James Sprague took second.

Tudor Magda third.

Really top five were far and away ahead

of everybody else.

Yeah.

You have Nate Ackerman at four fifty six

and then Chandler Smith at three ninety

eight.

Wow.

So it is a pretty big jump down

from fifth to sixth.

I was surprised at Ty Jenkins.

And then, man, Vellner at nineteenth.

I know.

EKG way down.

I don't know.

I just,

it may be time to walk away.

I agree.

I was impressed with Quinn.

I was actually hoping he'd make it in

the top.

Where was Quinn?

Oh, I think.

Yep.

There it is.

And who was for the women?

I feel like it was a similar black.

Okay.

And Lydia was twelve.

Yeah.

I would have really liked to seen Lydia

make it into the top ten.

But you get the deadlift in there.

Woo!

Carolyn's deadlift.

Woo!

I was excited to watch that.

Yon Clark, their event was great.

The stands were bare.

Did look bare.

So

I'm glad you're here, Jan,

because I heard a couple things that I

think may have contributed to this.

They say London,

but it was like pretty far north from

what I hear.

I am not familiar with London.

And it was a good hour plus from

the airport to the venue.

Yeah.

So maybe...

Uh,

drum sheds is in the arse end of

nowhere.

Uh, London probably isn't the best place.

Manchester leads or further north toward

my neck of the woods would have been

better.

So my, my understanding,

it was just hard to get to.

Okay.

And that could have alone made it hard

to, uh, to fill the stands.

Sounds like the mayhem classic.

I mean, yeah,

you're driving through the Hills for a

while to get there.

Uh,

drum sheds is a nightmare to get to.

Hmm.

Yeah.

I don't love that.

They had to pivot from Mexico city and

find a new venue.

I mean, that sucks for them.

You kind of probably just left with

whatever you can get right in that short

of a time.

Yeah.

It's stupid.

I think they needed to go to forty.

The fifty people is too many.

I agree.

I think you have your twenty pros and

twenty competing.

Cool.

That's it.

I'm even probably at thirty.

I can see that argument.

I think there's some people in that twenty

range that probably can throw some

wrenches into some events.

And I like the opportunity,

but five heats is a lot.

Four we're used to, right?

We're used to four.

That's the game.

Forty is what the games has always been,

so I think we stick with forty.

Yeah.

I think forty is the sweet spot for

them.

Apparently it's a rave venue.

Wow.

If you're going to go all those heats,

then give me the rep counters for all

the heats.

Yes.

Why would you have them there above the

rig?

Really cool for the top heats.

Hard to follow the race otherwise.

Especially when I have to watch ten

minutes of Air Runner.

Show me where they are.

I didn't like that floor either.

If I'm being honest, I didn't like that.

It was almost like two separate floors,

but again, you got thrown into a venue.

Well, I'm okay with it.

If you're using that for media to stay

out of the way.

Okay.

Yeah.

But I, I, it did seem split.

Like the camera is either this floor or

that floor,

even though there are only five lanes.

Yeah.

Yon says he quite liked the lighting.

I'm sure it's awesome in person.

I don't even mind it on the screen.

I like seeing it go from the yellow

to red when the timer's going.

It is a little dark out there for

some things, but I don't know.

Yeah,

the lighting's cool when they're walking

out.

There's been some comments about the

interviews.

Our very own Carolyn Prevost

Knocking herself in the nose on the final

event and continuing to go unbroken and

being in the post event when Lauren says,

well, you're a former hockey player.

You're used to playing through the blood.

And without a blink,

Carolyn just keeps on going.

Yeah.

She crushed that last event.

Finished fifth overall out of the second

heat.

I know.

Yeah, she really had a good finish.

I mean, what did she end up like,

twenty fifth or something?

Twenty twenty twenty fourth.

Fourth.

That's great.

Yeah, I mean,

she's four spots out of a pro card.

Two more events to add points.

She competed last weekend,

flew over with no time to adjust.

She is she's in a good spot.

We know what the stress of that is

on her, right?

We know, you know,

we all pushed her to sign up for

this.

This was a tough choice for her taking

extra time away from schooling and the

kids and stuff.

So she did great.

Carolyn made Lauren look good.

Carolyn's great.

I like Lauren,

but when you have to interview someone

after every heat to come up with new

stuff, because we've tried it.

When they had the sixty people semis,

you and I tried to interview someone from

every heat.

Yes.

And it gets tough to come up with

new stuff.

It does.

Karen lives a beast.

Her deadlift was awesome, too.

But my gosh, Dana Peran.

Might as well put a truck out there

for her.

And she was still thinking of the

students.

In her post-interview,

she was talking about shouting out her

CrossFit gym in her high school.

Uh...

That Phil Roy Peters six,

whatever he did was that was like the

smoothest deadlift I've ever seen.

Did you see that?

I, I don't think so.

Oh, it was better than Dana's.

It was incredible.

Dana made the four fifty look easy.

Lauren is superb in person at Rogue.

She's doing stuff with the crowd all day,

even when she's not broadcasting.

She was at MFC one year.

She is so friendly,

so cordial to everybody.

She's just an awesome human.

I enjoyed chatting with her at MFC.

Agreed you on the deadlift event was sick,

but not being able to see the reactions

was it?

I don't mind that lighting.

I think it draws attention.

Now,

if they if they were going instead of

just an open clock and they were moving

around and the light came on for the

person that was going,

I think that would be incredible.

Yeah, I like this format, though.

Like,

I don't like the twenty seconds to lift

to do that,

so I'm not hating on this.

I gotta know, though, are they,

is the person on,

is the cameraman on the floor taking cues

from the desk,

or is the desk trying to talk about

what they see?

Because, or not the desk, like the floor,

like, Katrin,

because there would be times where they

were, like,

it seemed like they were trying to get

the cameraman to go somewhere,

and they wouldn't.

Generally in sports,

it is the announcers at times trying to

get a camera to move to show something

or telling the truck that they need this

camera angle or this replay or whatever.

You never know because there are some

events where the announcers aren't even in

the same room as the athletes.

Yes.

That's what I couldn't tell were Katrin

and them like on the floor,

watching the floor or watching what

they're seeing.

Cause yes, they're literally like, well,

if we can show, and they're just like,

Nope, they're just over here.

So on this guy,

like they're going to miss the deadlift.

They wanted to see,

I might've been Phil Ray.

I can't even remember, but it was,

there was several times that they did it.

And you're like, what,

what are these cameramen doing?

Get an ear pierce earpiece in their ear

and have them listen.

Yeah, it was,

Yeah, I was very noticeable.

I don't know.

I missed it,

but I thought Katrin was good.

I've thought she's been good the last two

times I've heard her.

She's new to this.

This is like only her second event.

I think she brings flavor to the

broadcast.

I agree.

She's better than Annie.

Way better than Annie.

I think it needs to be a two

person booth.

Yeah.

You know, I like Tommy, you know,

it's hard for me to say bad things

about him.

Yeah.

Him and Jeremy are both play by play

guys.

It needs to be one of them with

Katrin or one of them with another athlete

to bring flavor.

I agree.

Three-person booth is hard in basically

any sport.

Agreed.

Yeah.

Football tried it.

Went away from it quick.

Can't match Lucy, though.

Standard is... Yeah,

Lucy is another beast.

I think Katrin's doing a good job.

But she's... Yeah,

but she's only done it twice.

Yeah.

Like two heats, I think.

So...

I guess, but I just,

I think they should go to a two

person booth.

Then you get, let Jeremy and Tommy rotate.

And then you get a different or throughout

the day, not the same,

not the same thing.

So there's that.

Let's move on to the one that I

watched the least.

Jeremy's just playing things now.

Jeremy wants us to bring back Gabby.

Mark Phillips,

that was part of the Chaos of Mayhem's

broadcast.

I agree.

I think that Rich and Austin had a

hard time feeling each other out during

that broadcast.

Yeah.

Katrin has the ability to discuss what the

athletes are feeling, perspectives,

and strategies.

That is correct.

So let's go to the Far East because

it's the one that's going to take the

least amount of time.

Okay.

Because I'll be honest,

I didn't get a lot of Far East

watching in.

I didn't either.

Weekend.

But here is our girl Holly Datawad doing

all the work.

And she put up leaderboards and final

leaderboards of everybody.

Sierra Meja,

I think she took last year off,

didn't she?

Because of an injury?

Yes.

I mean,

I don't know if she just didn't make

it really anywhere.

She was over-trained or what.

Or just took the year off.

I can't recall what happened after the

Open.

She won pretty handily.

Yeah.

Over some names we know, Dwan Young,

Samantha Pugh, Ariel Sanders,

all really good athletes.

So that was pretty impressive by her.

And then on the men's side,

back from an Achilles injury,

Heinrich Koppelainen wins the Far East

Throwdown.

I was rooting for my guy, Matt Brady.

I know you were, yeah.

But...

He didn't have it this weekend.

But Heinrich punches his ticket and is

going back to the CrossFit Games.

It sounds like that guy,

whoever's in third there,

Gaines or whatever his name is,

had it pretty handedly wrapped up.

Was this the comp that he fell apart

in the last workout and Heinrich took it

over?

I think it was.

Yes, Sven Gaines,

at seventeenth in the last event,

put him out of it.

That's what I thought I saw.

Yeah, I mean,

basically just needed to hold on and

survive and couldn't even do that.

He had like a Fikowski level fail.

Yeah.

Sucks.

Sucks being out.

Someone wants me to try to pronounce.

John George wants me to say who came

in second.

I can't read it.

He go.

Oh, day.

Ron G. Curtis.

Oh, Tehran G. Curtis.

I'm sure that's spot on.

We gotta be close.

He go.

Oh, Tay.

Yeah.

Old Saturday Night Live reference.

So those people punched their ticket to

the CrossFit Games.

I actually liked the programming there.

I thought it was a pretty good programmed

event.

I thought it was well programmed.

The stream seemed to be pretty decent.

I remember watching a lot of Far East

last year.

I did not watch a lot of it

this year, if I'm being honest.

There was way too much going on this

weekend.

um but i think they do a good

job because they get good floor shots you

you i mean you kind of know the

people if you want to watch it all

like but yeah they do a good job

uh solid broadcast yeah so that was cool

and then let's go to copa sir

Where we have one miss.

Annika Greer wins.

Pretty much a runaway.

Five eighty to five sixteen.

Miley Wade gets second and is getting her

rookie shot at the CrossFit Games.

Do you think Trista Smith is ever going

to make the games?

I don't know.

I don't know.

She is.

what what is her weakness not finishing

high enough in events like is it her

overall fitness probably if i were to

guess i don't think she has the engine

to compete at the highest level

Yeah, I don't, there's, I mean,

it feels just getting better and better.

I don't know how she'll make,

how she'll make it.

Every line for her.

Trish,

the dish coming in with her analysis,

her chest of bars are fine.

I mean, her gymnastics is good.

That's where, that's what I'm wondering.

And I think she's strong.

So it's like, what?

Yeah, I don't know.

She'll end up being like a Danny Spiegel

or something.

Just get the Instagram feed.

Eric Mackey says a clean and jerk event

killed her.

CrossFed says focus.

I don't know.

If she's in it for the vibes and

she's loving it, then keep doing you,

girl.

Train Olive, Scott,

not finishing high enough in events.

Classic.

CrossFit, I did not miss that joke.

Trust me.

I understand the chest of bars.

Jamie is too pure and innocent for that

joke.

No.

No, she's not.

I have the mind of a sixteen-year-old boy.

And with the, well, duh, comment,

or maybe those women ahead of her are

better.

Well, those two are, yes, very good.

So...

Well, you see, Jamie, it's because of her.

Yeah, we know CrossFit.

CrossFit.

My name is spelled right there on the

screen.

Look at it.

It's probably using talk to text.

You guys kill me.

You have to use talk to text to

make this many comments in every podcast

around the space.

It's concerning that all the other young

female athletes are making it,

but Trista ain't.

only concerning if you're trista or her

coach correct um i thought did you read

earlier somebody commented here that like

the venue here was not pleased that these

two made it and they didn't even cheer

oh i did not

But I could see that.

They came into their house.

I mean,

this is how these events should go.

They shouldn't even have an event.

This is the stuff about CrossFit and depth

of field and regions.

Had it been the old way,

two people here that don't belong at the

games would have been going to the games.

Look at the comments.

The comments are also not pleased.

Well, well,

Miley Wade snatched one ninety five.

I saw that.

I saw Hiller's post with those snatches.

Insane.

Holy crap.

You guys are texting so far.

There's a lot of comments flying by.

I can't even keep up.

You guys are the best.

And on the men's side,

we have Kalen Smith.

I'm just going to say Kalen Souza.

His other names are Ribeiro de Souza.

My D in high school Spanish.

Kalen Ribeiro de Souza.

And Benjamin Reyes.

Close, boy.

Sorry, Joao.

I know pretty well.

I do not know Benjamin Reyes.

No, I don't know Benjamin Reyes either.

So congrats to him.

He beat former games athletes in this

field.

And kudos to him.

So that is Copa Sur.

What else do we have on the docket

for tonight?

We have Magic City.

We talked about it briefly.

We talked about the broadcast.

I want to talk about the masters thing

as a whole.

Okay.

I think if you're going to do,

and I've said this before,

so this is nothing new.

If you're going to do masters in person,

you only go to the forty nine.

You only go to forty ninth on the

quarterfinal leaderboard.

Forty nine years old.

Oh,

you do the three age groups up to

forty nine until it's figured out that

there's more participation above that the

fact that some of the older age groups

at magic city had one or two people

not one or two it was like seven

yeah yeah four six seven um i think

that's yeah six seven um it

It's not enough to support in person.

And it's adding to the length of the

day.

And it's adding to all the heats in

the broadcast.

It needs to be cut down to what

is doable.

And maybe,

maybe just three age groups to start.

And then as it gets figured out,

maybe add in some other ones.

I think some other things they could do

is maybe put the two hot top heats

on the main floor and have a secondary

floor with the other heats.

If you seed them correctly.

So that the main floor can keep running.

If you looked at legends and say on

the right side, we do.

we do all the top two heats.

And on the left side,

we do all the other heats.

So it can keep running,

but you can watch all the action on

one floor and it moves way faster.

More age groups pay the bills.

But at what expense?

If you get nobody watching or nobody

coming, then all that's moot.

Yep.

Yeah.

I just don't think qualifying for the

games is the place for it.

This isn't a festival.

This isn't Watapalooza.

This isn't Legends in the Winter.

It's literally the top, like,

twenty in the world should be invited and

vie for their spot.

We don't need to go down to four

hundredth.

I mean,

it was an incredible opportunity for

people, but like I said,

that's what MFC's for.

That's what Legends in the Winter is for.

Like, go get your reps in competing.

That...

don't know it's it just if it doesn't

make sense it doesn't make sense like hq

needs to figure out a way to make

it make sense or these cops need to

just say hey we we can't support this

and i think and i in like yeah

it just needs to fall apart because it

can't be supported that's fine here's what

i would say right

If Syndicate Crown can make money or

Legends can make money with just having

elite people at their event,

they shouldn't have to buy any more stuff

to do three age groups beyond that.

Right.

Maybe bring in a few more judges.

Maybe bring in a few more volunteers.

But again, other than some swag...

Right.

That's what I'm saying.

You take a well-established comp.

You don't throw a new comp like legends,

bring in twenty elites and then stack four

heats of of age group each.

Like that doesn't make sense.

We should also only have two heats and

the older age groups should be,

like you said,

either none or five or ten.

And that should be combined to, you know,

the sixty plus basic sixty plus to seventy

plus should just be one one for one

heat.

And again, I would, I would,

those are so new and, you know,

I have friends divisions.

It's not an easy thing for me to

say to not let them have the opportunity,

but we haven't proven that we can run

an event with all of those heats in

person yet to get to the games.

I agree.

Larry,

I'm not picking magic over anything.

I'm not picking legends over magic.

No.

I'm not picking any of them.

I'm just using them as examples.

I believe that we have to cut down

the number of heats to make it watchable.

Agreed.

And,

thirty-five to forty-nine are the biggest

segment of the Open.

So,

those are the people that would get the

in-person events.

Yep.

Fergie says,

Sounds like Fergie's going to host an

event.

There you go.

Three heats.

That's what I said.

Jamie wanted four.

For WFP?

Yeah.

Whatever.

Yeah.

No, I want four for WFP.

I want forty at WFP.

I don't want more than three heats of

age group.

No way.

Two.

Two heats.

Trish is signing up for the new Villages

comp.

Masters really needs a Bluetooth or Roman

sponsorship.

You're stupid.

Trish is going to volunteer to drive the

golf cart around.

Event three is Mahjong.

Yeah, they do.

They need bingo and Mahjong.

That would be incredible.

We have pool stadium, all kinds of fields.

It's a good idea.

It's not a bad idea.

PC with the Denny's Grand Slam

sponsorship.

Yeah, AARP could sponsor that.

That's a great idea.

They could have their own qualification

for the game sponsored by AARP.

Blue plates for weights and for catering.

We need like Meals on Wheels needs to

be there as the food vendor.

Event four, sponsored by Meals on Wheels.

If you're stuck in your house and you

can't get out,

we'll bring the meal to you.

Oh, boy.

What the F is up, Denny's?

The fall risk games.

Gosh.

Sponsored by Life Alert.

Good stuff.

I'm sorry, Masters.

Who we love dearly.

I do.

I do.

I have so many friends in the Masters

divisions.

I hate the thought of segregating the age

groups.

But you have to look at it from

a business decision and see what is

viable.

I think we went into this year with

an in-person semi like CrossFit always

does with no plan, no parachutes, no nets.

Let's just wing it.

And it's just too much.

Yep, yep.

All right.

Just because we're off the rails tonight.

Right now.

Here we go.

They are playing a Denny's.

That's amazing.

uh yawn used to be in a band

like this i can picture that yeah um

uh the music sounds like the music in

the old crossfit journal workout videos um

yeah i used to be in a band

too

But we did not play music like that.

So... Wow.

Wow.

That would be the highlight of my career,

getting to play at Denny's.

Magic City was more of a Waffle House

kind of neighborhood, though.

It did look good.

It looked good.

It looked awesome.

It seems like...

The perfect venue.

I don't know what that stadium is that

normally for volleyball or what happens in

there.

Yeah, it's Bill Harris Arena.

Okay.

Dex talked about it a lot last Sunday

because he lives in Birmingham.

And so he's very, very familiar.

And he's been around for all the Magic

City games.

So he had a lot of insight that

I did not have.

But the track looked awesome for the

running events.

It did.

Like that took me back to like Kristen

Clever doing run the track,

do the snatches.

Like it was so OG cool.

Yeah, having that crossplex in there.

Yeah,

it seems like the perfect venue didn't

seem overly large.

I mean,

it looked unfortunately looked kind of

empty.

There was like no one in the stand

in the seats.

So Larry was there.

What were the crowds as empty as it

looked on the stream?

And I don't know if it's because there's

the two floors, right?

Like half the people are over there in

the cross plaques watching that one.

But you would think in the thirty five,

thirty nine,

there'd be people in the stands.

And all I saw was people on the

rail standing there watching people

compete.

Mark Phillips,

who I think is from the area, too.

It's pretty multipurpose basketball,

cheerleading, comps, concerts, et cetera.

I wondered if concerts maybe went in

there, too.

They held NCAA Division three

championships in that cross plaques.

uh, Lori Winkleman said,

and I know she did well this weekend,

all fans were in the stands behind the

cameras,

which was kind of the case at legends.

Like when you would see it was point

that's nowhere.

That was where no one sat was that

other side.

And so you didn't get to see the

stands with people in it, like at all.

Yeah, Lori did great.

Good job.

Should semi-events have smaller venues

moving forward?

I believe so.

Yeah.

I am the proponent that you should go

get Division III colleges and high school

football stadiums and go old school.

We are not big enough to be renting

out large venues, right?

Take it back to grassroots,

rebuild from the base, make it a cool,

fun OG experience,

kind of like NorCal with some rails.

And I think you have something that is

more manageable financially.

Barry McOchner,

Granite Games was fun to watch outside.

I loved Granite Games.

When they were at the football stadium,

I thought it was fun to watch.

Uh,

Joe Valens Copa stadium was a good so

say size, size, size.

Gotcha.

Yeah,

Copa had a cool venue down here until

nobody cheered for the Americans.

That's crazy.

The year with Colton, Brent, Taylor, etc.

was superb at Granite Games.

Is that the eighteenth?

No, no.

This was the semifinals in... Oh,

twenty-one?

Two?

Yeah.

Twenty-two?

The best part of that yawn was when

it was Matt DeLugos, Colton Mertens,

Brent Fikowski.

Like, six-five, five-one, six-two.

I miss seeing Matt DeLugos.

I enjoyed watching him out there on the

floor.

Yeah.

Was that the air Chandler's allergic

reaction?

I think that was the following year.

That was the following year.

Is Tulsa King a good show?

I'm in season two and it's falling off.

Ron is asleep.

It gets better in season three.

I think two was like a bridge season.

i didn't want i mean i watched part

of it my husband watched that series i

think he liked it but it was a

vikings practice stadium and it was still

very empty you say empty but they were

only on the one end and that one

end had some people and it was right

after covet yeah

gosh i can't even keep up with it

all um the first time i met butter

buttery rose was at granite games as well

in i first met them at mfc the

year they were the games for masters okay

the first year mfc ever was held and

it was during covid yeah

Everybody had to wear masks.

Everybody had to show vaccinations.

It was a crazy experience.

They were in their heyday.

Yeah.

The best thing that I saw them film

that day was they brought Danny Broflex

back.

And I don't know whatever happened to this

footage.

But Danny bro flex was hitting on the

masters athletes.

And it was hilarious to watch why it

never saw the light of day.

I don't know, but it was fantastic.

It's sad,

but we'll never get back to the good

old days.

The fitness market is too saturated now.

I hope that's not true.

Yeah, I don't know.

Jeremy wants to know if Ron's sleeping

because of the show or because of his

drinking problem.

I'm not a big supporter of doing it

at the affiliates.

There's only one mayhem.

There's only one place that has event

coordination experience.

Just because you own a big affiliate

doesn't mean you're a good event

organizer.

You think Xenon will take off like high

rocks?

I had a very interesting conversation with

Wilson POC on Friday and we talked about

Xenon and I had questions about how it

would work and is it watchable?

They are very much trying to make it

affordable for spectators.

Good.

Like twenty five bucks to get in.

Good.

They're looking at ways.

Most of the spectator viewing will be on

the floor.

Not in the stands.

They're not looking to fill the stands.

They're looking to fill the floor.

And so the way it was described to

me, I think it has a shot.

Truly.

But we have to see the execution.

Everything sounds good in idea form,

but we need to see it executed to

see if it can kind of hang in

there.

Kenneth says too expensive.

Jamie,

how much did you pay to go to

legends?

Like how much to register for the comp?

Let's start there.

It was like four twenties.

after tech like fees.

So four to go to legends and compete

it's at the highest price of Xenon with

the possibility of winning some money.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I think it's, and you know, the workouts.

Yeah.

I mean, isn't Hyrax like, like, two-fifty,

two-sixty?

What's that?

Isn't Hyrax like two-fifty or two-sixty?

I know, like,

local comps are a hundred and twenty.

Right.

Uh, Philby,

it seems more like a participation event

rather than a viewing experience.

If it's only twenty five bucks to get

in and this is your Super Bowl attempt.

Because that's what they're trying to make

it for the athletes.

This is their Super Bowl.

To go see what they can do.

And what score they can achieve.

And if it's only twenty five bucks to

bring the whole damn family.

That is way more affordable than anything

CrossFit has going on right now.

I wouldn't know how much Hyrex is because

I can't seem to get registered for one.

Right.

I don't know how people are getting these

tickets.

Somebody shoot me a ticket.

Lori says it was just shy of two

hundred.

Yeah, it says about two hundred plus.

Yeah, I thought it was over two hundred,

but.

Clip it?

I don't know what that means.

What did we say?

I don't know.

Somebody get me a ticket.

All right, well, we're winding down.

We're heading into the week.

What a wild week of...

CrossFit,

if you were jonesing to watch anything,

you had lots of options.

We discussed WFP.

We discussed Copa Sur.

We discussed Far East.

Magic City.

And Legends.

And Legends.

Next week, we have an affiliate.

Yep.

For Masters.

Is there anything else on the docket for

next week?

I don't think so.

I think that's it.

And I guess we'll see the workouts

tomorrow.

Hopefully somebody had some oversight and

they're good workouts.

What's scary.

If John saw them writing them yesterday.

Yeah, that's very, if that's true, I'm.

Yeah.

Jamie would crush high rocks.

Yes, she would.

I really need to start running mileage if

I'm going to do a high rocks, but.

Jamie,

I've only heard of you struggling for USA

High Rock signups.

Well, she's been injured for some time.

Where do you want me to go?

To spend thousands of dollars to go to

Madrid?

He's saying there's openings now in the

U.S.

Oh, there are?

Oh, Jeremy will do one with me.

NorCal is having a hybrid event that's a

high rock simulation with cash prize for

elite.

You should do it.

I can't afford to fly back out to

California.

I put all my eggs in that basket

already.

Anyone watch the Hulk Hogan doc yet?

I'm midway through episode two.

It was hard to get through it with

everything else going on.

But I loved episode one.

It took me back to being a

fifteen-year-old kid.

With all the Hulkamaniacs.

I haven't got to see you since The

Pit ended.

Yeah.

Happy with The Pit ending?

Man,

season two was just kind of a

disappointment compared to season one.

Season one was so good.

It's...

The more I reflect on it,

there were a lot of cool moments too.

It just wasn't like the straight chaotic

nine episode run in the middle.

But I thought there were a lot of

cool moments.

Yeah.

I mean, it's like,

I feel like you were like rooting for

some of the doctors last year and now

it's like, I don't even know.

Like, I don't even know who the,

who are you rooting for Whitaker?

Like Mel, I really like Mel, like,

but I don't know.

I think they all have flaws that you're

hoping they can overcome.

Yeah.

And either way,

I was always bummed when it ended.

Well, yeah.

I'm ready for Reacher to come out.

Yeah.

Fergie,

I would absolutely do High Rocks at

Michigan State.

Trish says,

I heard the season five of Columbo was

very good.

I thought it really caught its groove in

season six.

I don't even know what that is.

because it was on before you were born,

probably.

Oh, okay.

Mark Phillips' Apex was terrible.

Yeah,

I just don't think it has enough

substance, Apex.

Mark, my mom still forces murder,

she wrote on me every time I visit

her.

I do know what Dallas is.

My sister's name is Kristen.

My mom named her after whatever character

on that show.

Jeremy says, I love the Hulkster,

but I hear the doc does them dirty.

I think the Hulk did himself dirty,

but we'll see how this all plays out.

Just with all the interviews I've heard

from wrestlers and people, not Hulk Hogan.

But anyway, there's that.

I did start watching.

Margot has money trouble or money

problems.

I have not heard of that.

It's very interesting.

Did you watch Scarpetta?

No.

What's that?

It's the... I don't know.

When it first came out,

I feel like it was being...

kind of like spun as the female version

of Reacher,

but I would not say it's anything.

It's like a medical.

She's a medical examiner.

That's right.

It was good.

I liked it.

Okay.

You should watch it.

Jay was a Magnum PI fan.

My mom is obsessed with Tom Selleck.

Obsessed.

I love the new one.

Not for the storyline,

but Higgins was amazing in the new one.

Chips watched all those episodes.

Eric Estrada looks a bit like Dave Castro.

All right.

That's it for tonight.

It has been a great weekend.

I'll be back tomorrow for lunch with the

Clydesdale.

I'm guessing Corey's not going to be home.

So I'll probably be going solo.

I could come on,

but I got to coach at twelve fifteen.

Archie Bunker.

Go watch.

Now you'll pee your pants,

especially these days.

Drag that was my favorite show as a

kid.

All right, guys.

Hope you have an awesome evening.

We'll see you tomorrow for lunch with the

Clydesdale.

It's been fun as always.
