We cover the sport of CrossFit from all angles. We talk with athletes, coaches and celebrities that compete and surround in the sport of CrossFit at all levels. We also bring you Breaking News, Human Interest Stories and report on the Methodology of CrossFit. We also use the methodology to make ourselves the fittest we can be.
It's Thursday,
and it's back to just the Clydesdale
Cowboy.
Let's go.
From the gym to the screen, yeah,
we cover it all.
Midday motivation every time you press
call.
Lunch with the Clydesdale.
Cowboy bring the heat.
Crossfit, boobies, music on repeat.
Half hour hustle, yeah,
we building that brand.
Grab a plate, tune in now,
you part of the fam.
It's lunch time.
Had to redeem myself.
I don't know, dude.
I thought yesterday worked pretty well.
Tuesday was bad.
I'm building it back up.
Tuesday was a thing.
That's all right.
Not a big deal.
I had to come in hot.
Yesterday,
we had the whole yabba-dabba-doo thing
going on, man.
We ain't got the hot button no more,
but whatever.
It's fine.
I had the hot button.
Well, I meant for the East Lunchtime.
Didn't you just have both things on the
hot button?
Yeah,
I don't have the lunchtime on hot button
anymore.
I do have the abadabadoo.
I do a great Fred Flintstone,
but I cannot nail it like that.
And you never know when you might need
it.
Right.
Never know when you might need it.
That's entirely possible at any given
point in time.
Yeah, because I got rid of the Rodecaster,
and now I'm using the Zoom PodTrack eight.
The loading of the hot buttons is not
as easy.
It's so much better than the seven was,
though.
Well,
at least it doesn't cut out on me
in the middle of a show.
Which is...
That was absolutely a thing with the
Rodecaster.
Anyway...
So because we had a guest on yesterday,
I didn't get a chance to talk about
this,
but the great Dolly Parton passed away.
And then we had Tim Curry announced as
passing away today.
The thing I want to say about Dolly
Parton is I'm looking at the tributes to
Dolly Parton.
And the tributes are coming from everyone
from Taylor Swift and Beyonce,
which makes sense.
And then you get them from Motley Crue.
Kid Rock.
Yeah.
She spanned so much music.
Dolly was one of those people that if
you didn't love her, you were wrong.
I mean,
that's just all there is to it.
And then I found out she actually did
a duet with Motley Crue on Home Sweet
Home.
which makes sense like that's a song you
can hear her singing yeah right um no
mark uh peter cullen also passed away
voice of optimus prime it always happens
in threes son of a
So when Dolly passed,
was that day before yesterday?
I had one run of Aaron.
Right after I got out of the show,
I went run of Aaron.
I came back in the office.
Gina looked at me and she goes,
why did you kill Dolly Parton?
I said,
What are you, what are you talking about?
She said, she just passed away.
And I said, dude,
I could have went the rest of my
day without you like throwing that at me.
Good night.
Like that's some depressing stuff.
She was just on something.
Not that like fairly recently saying that
man, you know,
she still had so much left that she
wanted to do.
Um,
i want i'm risking demonetizing this show
but i want to play this one of
the greatest voices in heavy metal music
did a tribute to dolly and i want
to just play a little bit of it
because it kicks ass and and then we'll
move on to other things in the show
so here we go this is lizzy hale
from hailstorm she's amazing
I could listen to her all day.
Yeah, I love Lizzie Hale.
Yeah, she is freaking awesome.
Rest in peace.
And then so Tim Curry was yesterday.
And as I was drinking my coffee this
morning and looking at various reels,
they had basically all his funniest lines
from Clue put together.
And I forgot how good he was in
that movie, dude.
I mean,
he's a fantastic in everything that he's
ever been in.
But it was one of my favorite movies
as a kid just because of how ridiculous
it was, the entire thing.
And he's got fantastic lines in it.
I've only seen Clue once in my lifetime,
maybe.
You should watch it again.
And it was in the eighties,
probably when it came out.
When I think Tim Curry,
I think Home Alone.
And I think Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Yeah.
Home Alone too.
He was outstanding as the hotel manager or
whatever, whatever he was supposed to be.
Or the original It movie.
was the original pennywise in the when
they did the uh made for tv or
movie or whatever whatever it was they
like terrifying in that oh yes he was
also darkness in legend there you go and
optimus prime dude
Yeah,
that's the perfect voice of Optimus Prime.
He is.
There's nobody else.
There just is nothing.
Yeah.
There's nobody else whatsoever.
So we'll move on from the death.
I did want to show you an announcement
that I saw real quick.
And I'm sorry, Vicky.
I just hit save on a couple things.
So I'm pulling this up.
But I don't know if you saw this.
Lane Kiffin has announced that LSU is
signing DeMarcus Russell.
Fun fact, dude.
DeMarcus Russell could throw a football
fifty yards from his knees.
The problem is that you didn't know where
it was going.
And the other thing he never passed was
a McDonald's or a Burger King.
No.
I think the Raiders are still paying him.
Like,
they gave him some ridiculous signing
bonus, dude,
and I'm pretty sure they're still paying
him at this point.
And Jamarcus ain't been a quarterback in I
don't even know how long.
Is he pregnant?
Number one overall pick.
I don't know if there's been a bigger
dud in the NFL.
None come immediately to mind.
I'll put it to you, Dad.
None come immediately to mind.
He legitimately,
like his arm strength was absolutely
unreal.
But he could barely hit the ball outside
of a barn.
Like, I don't understand.
And he can't spell LSU according to
Joseph.
Probably not.
Probably not.
Joseph Ramirez says Ryan Leaf.
I would say Ryan Leaf was a much
better NFL quarterback before.
than Jamarcus Russell.
Now,
their rap sheets probably are pretty
comparable.
Ryan Leaf probably,
since he did Prison Time,
is a little bit higher up there.
He's got more street cred.
Oh, Gino Torres.
But he wasn't number one overall,
and neither was Ryan Leaf.
Like,
Jamarcus Russell was the number one
overall pick.
Yeah, well, I mean...
the Raiders have a real long storied
history of making stupid decisions when it
comes to personnel.
So I feel,
I almost feel bad for anybody who's been
a, uh, a Raiders,
a longstanding Raiders fan, but I mean,
it is what it is.
Um,
So just to finish up this LSU Daquan
Wright thing,
apparently that's been nipped in the bud.
I just wonder what's going to happen to
that kid because now he's stuck in the
middle in like purgatory.
He's in limbo.
Where he got waived.
Now he can't go back.
And so if you didn't see,
the Big Ten and the SEC have both
made rules where kids cannot go from the
NFL to LSU.
college football the sec put punishments
that are absurd up if you do it
um yeah they're not taking any prisoners
and then the nfl said if you leave
to go back to college you can't come
back to the nfl in the the current
season and you will never be eligible for
the draft oof
So it's on both sides, big stop signs.
And there's Daquan Wright in the middle of
it with nowhere to go.
I mean,
that's both the NFL and the SEC and
the Big Ten flexing their muscles against
the judge because that's who made that
ruling was just some judge somewhere
trying to make a ruling and putting their
hand in to try to get better results
for whatever school that they graduated
from.
I am certain of that.
And then SEC was like, nah,
we ain't doing that.
And the NFL was like, nah,
you ain't doing that.
So good on them.
Good on them.
I'm sorry, dude.
You don't get to go –
play professional ball this is not a feel
good movie from the eighties right where
like oh he played two seasons and he
blew out his knee but he still had
a year of eligibility left so they like
that's not reality it's just not
Yeah,
and the crazy thing is that you know
this isn't over.
Oh, no.
There are going to be lawsuits.
There's going to be so much litigation in
this thing.
Yeah,
this is one hundred percent not over,
unfortunately.
But it's over for this season because by
the time an injunction comes,
classes will be well underway at most
universities and nobody's going to be able
to go back.
One,
the regular season is going to start here
shortly.
Nobody's going to want to have to deal
with it.
Roshas are going to be set.
All that stuff is still in motion.
And there still is the go through the
motions that they go to class.
Yeah.
And so they're not going to be able
to do that.
No.
Good.
Again, good.
They shouldn't be.
It's ridiculous to begin with.
So I actually have a couple good things
I want to say about the WFP.
Oh.
Ladies and gentlemen,
stand by their marketing for their event
this weekend and on the socials has been
awesome.
Now,
the football jerseys are are weird and
kind of nineteen eighties ish that they
have handed out to the pro athletes.
So because they're in Indianapolis,
and this is taking place in the practice
facility of the Indianapolis Colts,
and it's the home of the NFL Combine,
they are embracing the football aspect of
going to, there it is.
Got it.
I don't know when the last time a
mesh jersey was worn in any high-level
football game.
Probably in nineteen eighty seven.
If I had to think about it.
i would i would guess around there um
so that's kind of lame to me but
i do like like they were they asked
everybody who would win the forty and
almost all the men were like gee and
then they asked gee and gee said me
Everybody else is saying Guy.
What about everybody else saying you, Guy?
He's like, yeah, me.
No, he's right.
Jay Burch is going to be going to
be going to be going to be going
to
It's entirely possible he might be right.
Like,
I remember my middle school football team
had practiced, like had, you know, that's,
that's mess jerseys and whatnot,
but it's because they had been passed down
and passed down and passed down for God
only knows how long.
We weren't getting any new equipment
anytime soon.
And that was in nineteen eighty seven.
six, eighty seven,
somewhere up in that area,
maybe nineteen eighty eight.
And they were probably ten years old at
the time.
So, yeah,
I would say NFL probably early eighties.
He's probably right.
But the photo shoots with the helmets and
the footballs and the stuff I think are
really cool.
And I they every day they're showing
either affiliate visits by the athletes or
they're showing
some kind of content with goofy questions.
They showed Chandler practicing the five
cone drill or the three cone drill,
whatever it is, five, ten, five.
And so they've done a great job marketing
this weekend.
And I'm super pumped because I'm going to
be there.
And I'm excited and I'm reluctant to...
Cause it's been a shitty week at work
and I know I'm going to be working
all weekend over there trying to get as
much content as I can.
Right.
Um, and the thing that's bugging,
the thing I want to see the most
is the NFL combine stuff.
And it is the first workout of the
weekend.
Yeah.
I,
it was some of the first stuff we
did as well.
Um, whenever we did it at monster game.
So, and so I am trying,
I was going to get up on Friday
morning and just drive over to
Indianapolis.
I'm going to get stuck in traffic trying
to get across to Indianapolis.
So I am actually leaving.
I'm leaving tonight.
and then my wife is going to be
gone all next week so i will not
see her for like a week and a
half after i leave tonight which is wild
um and so i'm just reluctant and wanting
to go for that reason but i know
once i get there i'll probably have a
good time but i mean i'm excited to
see the lighting in person that they say
is much better in person and and all
that kind of stuff it's so much better
when you can see it in person
Here's the thing.
If it is so much better when you
can see it in person,
then that's great for the people that are
there.
But those of us who are watching at
home, maybe you should fix it for us.
Just throw that out there.
I don't have a problem with it at
home either.
I know a lot of people do.
I don't.
I haven't seen enough of it to be
able to tell a difference.
So I have no opinion on it.
I'll watch this weekend if I have time.
But I got two children's birthday parties
to attend on Saturday.
And then I might actually be bringing my
daughter to the alligator,
to the seafood dock because it's alligator
season.
And go let her watch and bring some
alligators in.
Sounds like a good Louisiana time.
Yeah.
Well, you know, they're back on YouTube.
So you can catch up wherever you want
to now.
Oh, yeah.
Dude, I'm so bad about catching up.
If I don't watch it live,
I'm probably not going to go back and
watch it later.
More than likely.
I don't have the energy, the effort,
especially not if I see...
shit you know highlights blah blah this
person did that and that person did that
okay cool that's enough that's really all
i need to see if i happen to
catch it and it's live while i'm on
awesome i'll probably sit there and watch
but other than that not likely i am
super excited to see amy and laura go
ahead that that is probably going to be
something to see i hope that is i
hope it's the matchup everybody thinks it
is there is a workout that is very
heavy parallette handstand push-ups
My guess is Amy will take a large
lead at that point.
It's a good, strong possibility.
But other than that,
I think it's going to be – because
I think they're both going to be good
at the combine stuff.
I think they're both going to probably be
pretty good at the long run.
The bench press is going to be interesting
because we just don't know.
No.
No.
And both are really good on machines.
But that handstand push-up workout is
going to kill Laura.
I would.
How crazy would it be if she just
got out there and just started cranking
them out?
You should get off and be like,
what's up, bitches?
Look what I've been working on.
I'm not saying it's going to happen by
any stretch of the imagination.
I'm just saying that would make for an
interesting show.
Let's leave it at that.
I still am finding it fascinating that we
haven't heard from Amy really since the
games.
She hasn't been anywhere.
She's not on any podcast.
Nothing pumped out from CrossFit HQ.
I'm trying to think of the last thing
I actually saw her on was I think
Savannah interviewed her because he
interviewed her.
He interviewed James.
I think that's it though.
That is weird.
Why would you not be leaning in?
We had a brand new champion.
She just beat the brakes off of everybody.
Why would you not have her everywhere?
I don't understand that.
We've talked about it on the show.
She is one of the most marketable people
that CrossFit has ever had.
Ever, ever.
Box Rocks just released an interview they
did with her leading up to the games.
Well, one,
why did it take you so damn long
if you had to sit on that thing
from before the games?
I was going to say,
did they know what year it is?
Seriously.
I have no idea, dude.
It's mind-boggling to me.
So I'm going to try to get something
with her this weekend.
We'll see.
I don't know.
Don't forget, she's a close talker.
I do know.
I do remember.
Yeah.
Need to make sure I have a lot
of space.
To be able to keep her in frame.
Yeah.
Jay Birch says he's wearing the Clydesdale
tee today, and it's a nice fit.
Yeah.
Make sure you go out and do one
of those big heavy deadlifts, Jay Birch.
You may PR.
And for anybody that's going to be at
WFP,
I have the whole box of shirts in
my car already.
Yeah, preloaded for your convenience.
they are ready to go um and you
can get yours uh just by clicking that
venmo or cash app just put your name
size and address in the memo and i
will get that out to you for thirty
two dollars now the way i factored out
the pricing is twenty five dollars for the
shirt seven dollars for the shipping
And so if you see me at WFP,
I will charge you twenty five dollars for
the shirt in person.
As it turns out,
no shipping necessary if Scott just has to
hand it to you.
So but they are, man,
they are so soft and they're they really
do fit well.
I really am so glad or so happy
how they turned out.
So we're mine.
Actually, mine's in my bag right now.
And the last thing about WFP is we're
not going to have a show tomorrow.
Sorry to disappoint everybody.
But I will be in Indianapolis watching the
WFP.
But I think Jamie and I will probably
go live after the events each night from
our Airbnb.
uh to talk about what we saw talk
about what went down uh and do like
a little recap show uh do a little
recap show uh after each day of the
wfp and then sunday is probably going to
get delayed to like a monday or tuesday
show monday monday monday night crossfit
talk maybe so depends depending
So that's all the WFP stuff for this
weekend.
Can't wait to see all the stuff they
have going on.
And the Heart of America competition has
joined with them.
So that local comp is happening in the
same location at the same time,
which is a brilliant,
brilliant move on WFP's part.
Guess who runs both of them?
Jason Ainsley.
I actually got a free invitation,
free registration because I've competed in
Monster Games for Heart of America,
but nah, no thanks.
It's just too much.
uh shanna says beware sending in usps yeah
corey filled me in uh before we went
live today um you want to fill the
list yeah so um quick recap so shanna
is sending me one of her games jerseys
um from i forget which year it is
it really doesn't matter it's amazing
she's a games athlete it's a
good luck type deal or whatever and she
mailed it to me at the end of
july so if we look right here i
don't know if y'all can how well you
can actually see that but and it didn't
seem to move
for quite some time.
And by quite some time,
I mean about three weeks.
It went from Eugene, Oregon to Portland,
Oregon,
and then it just didn't do anything.
And I mentioned it.
I was like, hey, just FYI,
I suddenly got that thing you sent.
And she was like, oh, okay, cool.
What do you want to do?
And I said, well, just wait.
Like, it's not a big deal.
It's the postal service.
I mean, who knows?
and we waited a little bit longer and
then the basically the entire month of
august has gone by and earlier this week
i think it was shannon i said you
know maybe we should file something
because you can with the post service fyi
if you have a tracking number you can
report something as being you know missing
or or whatnot it hasn't shown up where
it was supposed to again be
And so she did that.
And then yesterday I got all of this
update at once.
So it went from Eugene,
Oregon to Portland, Oregon.
And that was on the I think the
second of of August.
And then on a twenty sixth or twenty
fifth, maybe that says, yeah,
twenty fifth.
It showed up in in Atlanta, Georgia.
Ladies and gentlemen,
I live in South Louisiana.
I don't know how much I know about
geography.
But Oregon is over here.
Atlanta is over here.
And Louisiana is like right there.
Then it went from Atlanta to Dallas,
Texas.
which they had to pass by my house
to do that.
Literally had to go back across Louisiana
to get to Dallas.
And that was the last place that we
saw it at.
And it's still in transit into the next
facility.
That was yesterday.
It was in Dallas.
So this is the latest update that we
have.
It's been all over the place.
So I got, I got, uh,
I got doctor to look it up earlier
and apparently they must have transported
it by bicycle because that's about how
long or three and a half or so
weeks,
four weeks is about what it would take
if you rode a bike from Portland,
Oregon to Atlanta, Georgia.
So, you know,
UPS is just saving a couple of dollars.
It's really all it is.
Meredith says that the Oregon Trail would
have been faster.
She's probably right.
She's probably right.
And less perilous at this point.
And what has that jersey seen?
Travel.
Travel.
So I'm excited because it actually –
I am the dude that when I order
something and I get the tracking number,
I'm looking at it.
I'm following it the entire time.
So for it actually now that it has
shown movement,
basically all it took was Shanna going to
the post office and be like, hey man,
I spent fourteen dollars shipping this
thing and it's somewhere.
And then the next day they were like,
oh yeah, no, no, here it is.
Look,
here's all the updated tracking stuff.
I don't understand how it works.
I really, really don't.
Why is it?
Why did it go all the way to
Atlanta?
Like that's,
it just bypassed us completely.
It's like when I go from Columbus to
California and I have to do it through
Charlotte.
Yeah, exactly.
I left from, uh, where was it?
I did the same, the same type thing.
Oh,
when I left from last year or year
before last, no longer than that.
Indianapolis.
Not Indianapolis.
Excuse me.
Wherever that place is.
Fort Wayne.
Flew from Fort Wayne to Charlotte and then
back to my house,
which is not the way you really want
to go.
Didn't make any sense.
Anyway, I thought USPS was out of funding.
Apparently,
they're sending it by bicycle now.
Yep.
Cheaper.
Gas prices went too high.
A hundred percent.
A hundred percent.
um i don't know if you saw this
there's been a lot of speculation about
who's going to be in the outcast team
for wadapalooza socal oh yeah we justin
and ellie announced they were on the team
on their own podcast that was confirmed by
wadapalooza yesterday all right but one
the other person we have confirmed now is
dan yell brandon
For half a second, I was like,
everybody say Dan Bailey.
Daniel Brandon.
Yep, that makes sense.
Way more sense than Dan Bailey,
by the way.
Yeah.
No disrespect to Dan.
He's a great dude.
Probably not going to be on the Water
Palooza team.
Yeah, that has been speculated as maybe,
maybe not.
And now we know for sure she is
on that team.
Sweet.
So...
That'll be interesting.
So now we know three members of all
four teams.
Well, let's go.
And we, we, I mean,
we kind of know some other,
the rest of the team for proven.
It just hasn't been a shit deductive
reasoning.
Reasoning has got us the rest of the
team for proven.
Yeah.
I mean,
I think you can deduct a lot of
things on all the,
on all four of the teams.
It's just, you know, anyway, um,
This brings up something in my mind like,
you know,
Wadapalooza has been crushing it with the
release of information leading up to their
event,
which isn't even for like another couple
weeks, month.
You know,
WFP has been releasing stuff leading up to
their event.
And it just shows the lack of marketing
that CrossFit does for their own stuff.
Have we seen anything on the Community Cup
yet?
I would do you one better.
What's the Community Cup?
I've heard Dave say sign up for it
a couple different times.
I've heard a couple people say sign up
for it a couple different times,
but that's literally it.
Like, hey, the Community Cup's going on.
You should sign up for it.
What is the Community Cup, Dave?
If you take away Dave's athlete interviews
for the games,
he's a handful of road to the games,
and that's it.
which were basically done twice because
they were done by the mayhem people and
then they were done by the like they
were done by the independent camps and
then they were done by the road by
the actual games clue in like you didn't
learn anything different on either video
it was basically the same type videos put
out in the exact same way so um
it just
It's just frustrating to me that that's
where we're at.
You're seeing things done.
I mean, hell,
Rogue is not until the end of October,
and they're releasing people twice a day.
Because they know how to generate buzz.
Yeah, that's how you sell tickets.
That's how you get people interested.
Yes, get people excited about the, hey,
I want to watch this thing.
That's fixing to go on.
Or maybe I want to participate in it
in whatever way that I can.
Xenon was doing the same thing leading up
to their first event.
Oh, hey,
this person is coming to do Xenon.
Oh, you know.
uh colton and uh what's his face come
to a team like that's gonna be that's
gonna be cool you know if you're in
the dallas area come watch it no it's
not gonna be broadcast but these people
are
And it was consistent, trickle,
putting stuff out,
making a big deal about it and whatnot.
And we got interviews by Dave of all
the games athletes,
which is the same thing we did last
year.
But he's the only person that was doing
that.
As far from CrossFit thing, like you said,
a couple of...
oh here's some road to the game stuff
which yay road to the games is back
outstanding cool you're not talking about
the people that people are you're not
trying to get you're not bringing
attention to the people who probably need
the attention more than the people who are
already having it done for them does that
make sense like you know all the people
that were featured are people that were
featured on their either their own channel
by their own camp
whatever the case may be.
Instead,
you're just rehashing the stuff that we
already see instead of going, hey,
this person just made it to the games.
There's somebody that was there that
nobody even knew who the poor dude was.
Right?
I can't even think of what the cat's
name is,
which is a shame because he is,
in fact, a games athlete.
You still got to be an animal to
make it there.
And he didn't know who he was.
Yeah.
I don't think that's a good barometer,
though, of a person's popularity.
I understand that.
I understand that.
But you're not helping your cause by
saying, you know,
here are these athletes and we're going to
focus on these six,
eight to eight athletes or whatever it is
for the entirety of the whole Realty to
Games thing.
I just don't see the point.
Fake Savant says,
you'd think he would talk about it in
his week in review,
but he wants to answer questions instead.
He does mention it.
Dave is the one person that has mentioned
the Community Cup.
He doesn't really say what it is.
He doesn't really explain what the purpose
of it is.
He just mentions it's going on this month,
and if you can still sign up and
do it.
Yeah, that's it.
Hey, the Community Cup is still going on.
You should sign up.
Still got time to do whatever,
and that's it.
but what it is and what it means
no clue no clue um i don't get
it i don't know if you guys saw
this but this is where xenon london is
going to be held have you seen this
uh oh how cool does that look
looks like a train station that is
outstanding looking yeah with the flooding
in the natural sunlight what does that
mean it's that's it's just a venue yeah
just an arena in london i guess nice
I don't know much about London sports,
but if it's not soccer,
I have absolutely no idea.
If you didn't tell me,
I'd think it's the Galleria downtown that
closed ten years ago.
Is that the mall?
No.
The gallery in Houston used to have,
I don't know if they still do,
they used to have ice skating inside,
like an ice skating rink inside of it.
That was like one of the big draws
or whatnot.
Now they have a Tesla store inside because
that's where you would buy Teslas.
I know that because that's where we went.
Yeah.
Okay.
I didn't know about the Oreo gate and
now I'm annoyed.
Thanks, Meg.
Have you seen that?
i just saw what she wrote so it's
it's exactly what she said it is but
if you go find like there's a text
message thread right it's on it's on
instagram like people post pictures of it
and whatnot and it's some woman was
complaining because somebody else's kid
came to school and had oreos and she
did not give her child oreos and was
bitching about the fact that somebody else
sent their house there somebody else sent
their child with oreos
And so like all the other moms in
the group were like, cool,
and sent their kids with Oreos.
It's like, oh,
you got a problem with Oreos?
Here's a whole bunch of them.
Knock yourself out.
Dude, it's so good.
It's so good.
What happened to the days where you would
come to school and you had your little
brown bag of goodies and you trade with
people to get the stuff you want?
That's how you learn bartering and trade
in elementary school.
I'll trade you my bologna sandwich for a
PB&J.
Now they come home and I don't know
anything about the kids themselves,
but I know what my kid would do.
My kid would figure out how to get
some Oreos out of somebody,
or she would come home and be like,
man, you know, whoever had Oreos today,
why don't I have any Oreos?
Because we don't eat like that.
And she'd be like, all right, cool.
And she'd go on about her business.
The thing that would not happen is my
wife would not be texting the other moms
in the group talking about why y'all sent
Oreos to school whenever we don't have
them at my house.
Like, that's insane.
There was a kid in my school that
every day bought graham crackers with
icing,
cake icing in the middle and made
sandwiches.
And he would make extra to sell because
they were so popular.
Smart kid right there.
That is what creativity and letting kids
deal with it on their own can do
for you.
Screw the Oreo.
Give me the graham cracker with cream
cheese icing.
Right here.
This is why Meg's my people right here.
I'd have sent a package of Mega Stuffed
Oreos.
I'd have sent a family pack of Mega
Stuffed Oreos and be like, look,
give them out to whoever you want to
give them out to.
I don't care.
Go crazy.
Do whatever you want to do with them
on general principle.
Can I just say I'm not a fan
of the Mega Stuffed?
and uh it's too much yeah double stuff
is perfect nope nope nope nope the
original oreo was made with the correct
proportions anything that varies away from
that let me ask you this while we're
talking about that from the cookie what do
you feel about all the various different
types of oreos now like peanut butter
cream and yeah i don't like that either
No, no, no.
I saw one the other day said cookies
and cream.
And I was like,
cookies and cream is an Oreo.
That makes no sense whatsoever.
Oh, cookies and cream Oreo.
You're shitting.
You are making that up.
Pretty sure I'm ninety percent.
Ninety percent.
It might not have been Oreo.
It might have been like a off brand,
you know,
whatever the high rocks of Oreos or
whatever it is.
But it was in there.
That's called Hydrox.
Whatever.
It's the same thing.
Yeah, that's what Hyroxers eat.
They eat the Hydrox cookies.
They can't afford the Oreo.
Absolutely.
Scott and Corey do not speak for their
producer regarding Oreo cookies.
Listen,
the original Oreo was around for like a
hundred years for a reason.
Vicky,
I'm going to need you to find out
how long Oreos have been a thing.
Here's the fun part.
It's got to be a hundred years.
I'm pretty sure High Rocks was first.
And then Oreos came and they just outsold
them for whatever reason.
I'm almost positive that's a thing.
I don't disagree with you.
I do believe that they are...
the hydrox cookies were first like this
the redundant department of redundancy
absolutely um mark phillips apple pie
firecracker popsicle cinnamon bun banana
pudding etc they all have some crazy ones
out there bro it's i thought he was
just listing the concession stand items
from the pool when i was
Here's a firecracker popsicle.
March six, nineteen twelve.
They've been around one hundred and twelve
years.
That's a long time, dude.
One hundred fourteen years.
That is a long time.
Oh, here we go.
I see we can't talk about cookies.
Somebody bringing up Fig Newtons.
I'm going to cuss you out later, Ramirez.
He ain't lying.
Look, here's Birch.
Pipe down, Ramirez.
Stop it.
Those may be my two favorite cookies are
Oreos and Fig Newtons.
One of them is.
Shut.
Listen,
I told you I watched the History Channel.
They had history of cookies and Fig
Newtons was included.
That is definitive proof.
The Fig Newton actually is a cookie.
Nope.
Move right along.
Now, look, see, Meg's on my side.
This is why me and Meg are friends
right here.
Is a fig new to you to consider
a cookie?
No, Meg, it's not.
Meg doesn't have friends.
She eats her friends.
Look, Mark Phillips.
Bam.
So you're going to take Mark Phillips and
Meg's opinion over the History Channel?
Absolutely.
On that one, yeah,
History Channel got it wrong.
Hey, bro,
I don't know what to tell you.
History Channel is made by men.
Man is fallible.
They put out something that was incorrect.
It's all right.
It happens all the time.
Jaybert says fruit-filled pastry.
It is not a tart.
There we go.
AI.
Fig Newton are officially classified.
Let me tell you who I'm definitely not
taking advice from.
ai you can go ahead and write that
down unless it's alan iverson that's the
whole that's the only ai i'm taking advice
from thank you vicky nope meredith brings
up a shot look even the marketing campaign
called it fruit and cake no it didn't
yes it did hey i'm the only one
old enough to be around when fig newton's
was launching the marketing campaign no
you're not
Oh,
like every three weeks we have this same
conversation about, I don't know,
probably going to be talking about cookies
and then it comes back up.
I don't know if you,
I don't know if you've seen this,
but when AI tries to take over the
world, you know, we all say it's,
it's dumb and all that stuff.
I found that this came in my algorithm
because of all of the robot Olympics I've
been watching.
Oh yeah.
Have you seen this?
No.
It burst snatches.
she beats it with a cane that is
fantastic oh i saw the one you were
talking about the other day whether it ran
bounced off the wall landed in a shower
of sparks and just went have you seen
this right here yes the box get over
more like it i like how it like
backs up and comes back up and then
and
I can't get enough.
I cannot get enough of the robot Olympics.
No, I've watched them so often.
Yep.
I remember that, Meredith.
A cookie is just a cookie,
but Fig Newtons are fruit and cake.
I must have been drunk that year.
Probably.
Probably.
All right.
I have one more video to show you,
or one more Instagram post,
and then we'll move on to whatever you
want to talk about.
Oh, that's the wrong button.
Yeah, don't do that.
So these are NFL Media Day photos,
and this is what they consider to be
the greatest Media Day photos in the
history of the NFL.
So are you ready?
Oh, yeah.
Bring it.
So the first one is DK Metcalf.
Oh, Lord.
Relax, DK.
Did you take a breath?
Gardner Minshew.
Yep.
I'm with that one.
I am with that one.
Bajon Robinson.
What the hell?
He looks like the Will Smith genie from
the live action Aladdin.
This thing's just hanging off my head.
I don't even know what to do with
that.
Cam Jordan?
Mm-hmm.
Dude, Cam's a trip.
He's been a saint for as long as
I remember.
He's the one that does the commercial that
the guys say he smells like hot dog
water.
Cam's all right.
God bless Cam Jordan.
His mama's got to come do his laundry
so he stops smelling like hot dog water.
Mm-hmm.
What else we got?
The Quinnen and Quincy Williams brothers.
Stepbrothers, baby.
That's fantastic.
And they are actually brothers?
Yeah.
That's good stuff.
Jamal Williams.
What I find... He looks psychotic.
He's looking at me and another thing.
I don't know what the other thing is.
Like how...
How his eyes are both facing in opposite
directions.
I will never understand.
Like I can't,
I can cross my eyes this way.
I defy anybody to try to do that.
Good luck.
What I found fascinating is that two
saints made the list.
Well, I mean,
I don't know if you noticed it now,
but the Superdome is in the French
Quarter.
You can walk to Bourbon from the
Superdome.
It's not hard to do.
It's not always – it's a ten-minute,
maybe fifteen-minute walk.
So there's a lot of weird shit that
goes on down there.
Just throwing that out there.
Yeah,
this is the video version of the Key
and Peele football intros.
Those are actually real football players,
though.
That's the bad part about that.
You know what?
Why wouldn't you?
Like my favorite thing is when they –
i say one of my one of my
favorite things when they would come up
like they introducing the the starting
lineups whatever and they played a little
video clips of them like talking about it
from the you whatever and like the couple
of guys who just say some off the
wall because you tell them whatever you
want like you don't have to be like
you know corey leonard lsu uh lsu tigers
or whatever like some of them would
actually just throw some crazy out there
scott switzer hessen heights elementary
Yeah, exactly.
Corey Leonard.
Pierport Bulldog.
That's fantastic.
Speaking of not hard to do,
it's not hard to improve your sleep and
recovery using Thirdsy.
It is the best sleep and recovery tool

There was I think it was there was
one I'm trying to remember what it was
like.
I think someone said like school of hard
knocks.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean,
why wouldn't you do like throw that out
there?
You know,
Corey Leonard Assumption High School.
I mean, it doesn't really matter.
Son of Jessica.
Just throw some wild shit out there
instead of just, you know, blah, blah,
blah.
The U, because they all do that.
Yeah, or the Ohio State University.
Because God forbid you forget the the.
Is there an Ohio State that doesn't have,
like is there a different Ohio State
University I'm not real sure about?
So I think the lore is that Ohio
University was first.
And they were around.
And to differentiate Ohio State from Ohio,
they put a the in front to say
they were the state university.
dear lord and the lore also goes that
they stole the script ohio from ohio
university and they stole the fight song
and so it's it's my daughter actually went
to the ohio not the went to ohio
university um which was the first
university in ohio it actually existed two
years before ohio became a state
interesting
Not that anybody cares about that stupid
show.
There's your useless history for the day,
ladies and gentlemen.
And Miami of Ohio was Miami U before
W. Yeah, but nobody cares about that.
No, I'm just kidding.
They really don't.
Thanks, George.
I appreciate that.
Nobody really cares.
They care about that about as much as
I care that people care about my Ohio
University stuff.
Absolutely.
Corey Leonard, former Power Ranger.
It was only written into the renaming
legislation because of the stupid rivalry
between Ohio University and the Ohio State
University.
And politicians who were alums from Ohio
State had to get their bullshit stuff
passed.
So it was the only state university.
Jesus Christ.
It's just like the governor of Louisiana
trying to interfere in getting Daquan
Wright to play for the Tigers.
Oh, yeah.
That's exactly what happened.
That's exactly what happened.
Jeff Landry was hot on it trying to
make that happen because he didn't have
enough problems to deal with in and of
itself.
That's what it was reported on GetUp
yesterday.
Oh,
and that doesn't surprise me whatsoever.
Because he is a big-time LSU alum and
fan.
Yes, yes.
So naturally,
he was just in there just trying to
get this dude and go get him out
of Cleveland and get him back over here.
Please stop.
Jesus H. Christ.
Mark Phillips forgets stuff exists outside
the SEC.
Well,
there's three national championships in a
row that exist outside the SEC.
Remember how many they had before that?
I'm trying to remember exactly.
We had our share.
Speaking of,
the Ohio State University padded the SEC's
bowl record for about ten fucking years
there.
Quite some time.
I am not an Ohio State fan.
Do not.
No, I'm not.
Do not label that on me.
Like,
you want to go with David Reed and
Judy Reed?
No.
No, I like to read too much.
I like to read too much.
Plus, I mean, he's a diver.
He's not a football player.
I'm just saying.
And I know Andrew Sten is anti the
Ohio State as well.
He's a bearcat thing down there in the
Cincinnati area.
The bearcat.
Oh, my word.
Old friend.
Ladies and gentlemen.
Yep, former Power Ranger.
I like how they made me the Black
Ranger.
That is outstanding.
That is outstanding.
I don't know,
if you've never watched the Power Rangers
when you were a kid whatsoever, they,
one hundred percent,
was not troped at all because the Black
Ranger was a black dude and the Yellow
Ranger was an Asian lady.
That totally didn't happen,
except the fact that it did.
And being as how people didn't know I
was not a black guy,
which I also didn't know.
Did you see the comment on YouTube?
The guy that thought you were black is
still having trouble.
And every time he watches the show,
Because he can't believe that it was on
the YouTube comments like yesterday or the
day before.
He still has trouble because your voice
coming out of the face he sees doesn't
make sense to him.
His brain just keeps... Oh, God.
Jesus Christ.
That is good.
Oh, my Lord.
And Meg says, you're not black?
I know.
I know.
I know.
That was my favorite moment from the
CrossFit Games.
Yeah.
Who thought Corey was black?
That's a highlight of my weekend for
certain.
That's a highlight of my weekend.
I looked six foot on camera and dude,
Mark, I took,
so I did our pump session this morning.
So basically there's a bunch of
bodybuilding stuff at the gym this morning
and videoed a little bit of it and
like, man, I look tall on camera,
but I am not FYI.
That's not even, that's not even a thing.
Where was it?
Apparently on camera,
you look and sound like Carl Weathers.
it's fine it's fine it's fine rest in
peace dude i mean who doesn't love carl
weathers you know you look like and you
look and sound like a six foot black
man yeah action jackson baby all day long
Ladies and gentlemen,
if you have never seen Action Jackson,
I highly recommend going find that.
It's got to be on.
I hope it's on.
It's got to be somewhere.
If you've never seen Action Jackson,
I do not look like Eminem, dude.
What the hell?
The only person to be mistaken for black
and a cowboy at the same time.
Yeah.
I mean,
it's two different groups of people,
but I'm one hundred percent.
Yeah.
He is, in fact, lawman Bass Reeves.
That would be me.
How's it going?
I need to go check the YouTube comments.
I'm going to go let him know.
My brother in Christ, I promise you.
I'm sorry for the confusion.
I don't know what to tell you.
Hootie was not a black cowboy.
First of all,
if you know anything about Hootie and the
Bluefish,
do not call Darius Rucker Hootie because
he is not Hootie of Hootie and the
Bluefish.
He's not?
Don't start.
I know you know that.
I felt the same way.
I was just as shocked as anybody else
was to find out that Hootie was not,
in fact, Darius Rutter.
But, I mean, whatever.
Who is Hootie?
That really is blowing my mind.
and uh oh i don't you didn't know
that i didn't know it he is not
hooting i would i would have i would
have sworn a stack of bible that had
been a thing a random piece of information
you would have known no he is not
in fact hooty of hooting the bullfish um
i don't know if there actually was a
hoodie but i know it's not darius is
he a blowfish
and uh apparently i don't know i hope
vicky's looking it up right now because i
want to i need to feel vindicated as
far as that's concerned but i know that
people would you know hey hootie whatever
whenever they were still like hooting
whenever they were still at a band he
was like dude i'm not hootie uh they
were college buddies of darius in theory
yeah well there is no in person yep
i know there's no one named hootie but
he just by like um common law he
became hootie right it's my son he was
just born yesterday we're gonna call him
hootie
Every time we see me and my wife
see somebody who's got just like a
ridiculous like name and it's not,
not necessarily like a college football
player or whatnot,
just somebody who's like,
they added extra commas where they didn't
need to be comma or, you know,
apostrophes in their names and whatnot.
I'm like, do we miss a good opportunity?
Could have named Jameson,
whatever that is.
Like just,
there's all kinds of extra letters and
whatnot are there.
Like, my name's Ashley, but I spell it,
you know, it starts with a Z.
I'm like, what?
That doesn't make any sense.
Starts with a Z. Yeah.
Every time we see someone, it's like, yes,
exactly.
Jameson, but with no,
there's no vowels in it whatsoever.
We just went the proven route and just
kind of did like that.
LaDasha.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, gosh.
My friend is a college professor,
and someone showed up,
and their name was SSSS.
And she's like,
and then the guy's offended.
Of course.
He goes, no, it's Forrest.
It's Forrest.
No, it's not.
no it's not that's not how that works
it's not how the english language works
did you see this is this has been
forever um you just i have to go
find it i have it's a it's a
story somebody had put up of like this
dude who got his license renewed when he
was a kid like eighteen twenty years old
somewhere somewhere in that area and
thought it would be funny to add on
his signature to put three cat faces
On his driver's license,
you have your signature on it and whatnot.
And then he went and bought a house.
And he still had that as his driver's
license signature.
And he got started into the...
If anybody's bought a house before,
guess what?
You got to sign your name like nine
thousand times.
And they started it and somebody looked at
it and looked at the picture of his
ID and had to stop the whole process
because he was just signing his name.
And it has to match the one on
your driver's license, he said.
So the first house purchase he ever
bought,
he said he had to draw three little
cat faces.
He said,
because because because eighteen year old
me didn't think that, you know,
thirty year old me would be buying a
house at any given point in time.
So why would I need to sign my
name?
Like I thought I would be cute and
you can have you can sign whatever you
want.
Bro.
Oh, my word.
Oh,
I once had a client with last name
huge.
I pronounced it as such.
She corrected me.
It's huge.
It's huge.
No, it's not.
No, it's not.
It's just not.
So when you're telling the story about the
guy signing three cat faces,
all I could think of in my head
was,
is that the character from The Sopranos,
Big Pussy?
Big Pussy, yeah.
Entirely possible.
um talking about that so that the people
correcting somebody because their name's
not what what they say it is when
i was working construction this was
forever ago driving piles we showed up so
you get a big job site where you
you know we we were the first person
that usually the first people there put
down the foundation as other people start
coming in so i don't have to remember
scott vicky uh marco tessa whatever
everybody's joe we just called everybody
joe i still do it to this day
um so fyi if i run across you
and just call you joe don't feel that
i just didn't remember your name and
immediately so we get on we get into
this job site and this dude walks up
he's a safety man he's got a red
hard hat on and it says preacher right
there across it and if we were there
this is like the either first or second
day we were there
and uh talking to him whatnot and fixing
to go get started it's first thing in
the morning sorry hi joe and he stopped
us and he went no they called me
preacher and i went hi joe and he's
like no no no they and he pointed
the thing on his head and he said
no no they they called me preacher and
i said cool on this job you gonna
be joe and then we all just kind
of walked off
And it took him probably about three,
four days before he realized like it
wouldn't, we wouldn't just pick it on him.
Like it was everybody out there,
but just to look on his face when
he's just like, no, no, they, they,
they call me preacher.
And I was like, we got it.
We got, I can see it.
It's written right there across the front
of your hard hat.
Oh,
so the last thing I want to leave
you with, and then we'll take off is,
uh,
I found out where I'm going to spend
all my extra money.
Oh,
yeah is it a lego store in new
york it is not it is this new
gadget uh this is how we started a
campfire in now have you seen this oh
please yep i need one of those
I got news for you.
If you poured that much gas on that
thing, you couldn't get the fire.
You didn't get that fire that close to
it.
That would explode it right.
Yeah.
I learned that lesson at like eight years
old.
I burned all the hair off my leg
when I was like twenty two or twenty
three.
Something like that.
Trying to pour a little gas trail.
A flamethrower that looks like a water
pistol.
Bring it.
Bring it.
How much is that?
I have no idea.
What's the name of the company?
I don't know.
It says like butane torch, I think.
Don't use it on a candle.
Hey, Tessa,
don't tell me how to live my life,
bro.
Don't tell me how to live my life.
Light the birthday candles and you just
have a layer of wax on the top
of it.
Hold on.
I got it.
See if I got a lighter?
No.
Stand by.
I got it.
The reason why I asked is because they
could be a really good sponsor for the
show.
I think we could probably help them out
a whole lot.
Whatever.
Whatever the name of that.
It's a flamethrower.
I don't know.
It's not anything else but a flamethrower.
It might not shoot as far as a
flamethrower probably does.
Or so I've been told.
But it's definitely a flamethrower.
uh the uh get your thirds and buy
a flamethrower there you go have fun
during the day and sleep well at night
what absolutely uh would be great for
beehives the hairdo we need the honey oh
that kind of beehive i thought she meant
like for their
The Marge Simpson look.
You don't need that much flame for those
to go up.
Probably not.
Probably not.
All right, guys.
Joseph wants to go five more minutes.
Wasp.
Wasp nests,
that makes a whole lot more sense.
But don't burn your house down.
We at the Gladiator Media Podcast do not
recommend burning your house down in
pursuit of burning a wasp nest off.
Can you imagine the legal language that
has to accompany that gun?
I mean,
if you think about disclaimers and the...
Right.
If you think about what it just says
on a hairdryer, right?
Like,
don't use this in the tub or in
the shower, right?
That kind of shit.
I can't imagine what they have on there
for a flamethrower because that's
basically what that is.
Not intended for creme brulee.
Not with that attitude.
Yeah.
What if you make a really big creme
brulee, right?
You can't just,
you can't do that with a regular torch.
Yeah.
The only person that could eat a creme
brulee that big is a six foot black
cowboy.
Bass Reeves.
On that, let's go, Vicky.
You wouldn't wait to get to the editing
room to jazz me up.
I'm already jazzy.
Lunch with the Clydesdale Cowboy in the
saddle.
Lunch with the Clydesdale Cowboy in the
