not going to happen on the show is
we ain't going to bitch about anybody
else.
There we go.
What is going on, everybody?
Welcome to Lunchtime,
where we all need that break in the
middle of the day.
We're here.

it um hexi lover uh scott you're jinxing
my flyers please stop watching the games
if i had the control to jinx your
flyers i would put all of my effort
into that as a penguins fan
I actually, Saturday night was like,
they've lost three in a row.
This is going to be a sweep.
Should I even tune in and be heartbroken?
And they won.
And I did tune in.
I did tune in.
And then last night, tuned in again.
They've won again.
So now it's three-two.
But I think we go back for game
six.
So we'll see.
We'll see.
Two-game win streak, baby.
Yeah,
and they're playing like they should be
playing, not like the first three games.
So they're like skating around and trying
to put the puck in the net?
Yeah,
and Philadelphia is much more physical
than Pittsburgh is.
Okay.
And Pittsburgh was trying to play a
physical game the first three games.
I was under the impression that all hockey
was physical.
Well, it all is,
but the Penguins have a bunch of elegant
scorers, and you shouldn't be scrapping.
Just score.
Don't worry about the fights.
Don't worry about...
It's got to be leading the playoffs in
penalty minutes with as much time as
they've been spending in the penalty box,
but this is not a hockey show.
no because it would be one-sided
conversation i'd be like yep that sounds
great yeah i think we're back tomorrow
night for game six and there we go
with all that love it um i'm just
a quick commentary here and then we'll get
into whatever sure i listen to savan
almost every day i listen to hiller almost
every day
same i am over the feud feud shit
dude like i'm just over it like and
why i'm over it is because i'm losing
the content that i watch every day yeah
over the feud like i want i want
the content back yeah i don't want my
content to be about them bitching about
each other like that's just silly to me
like let's talk about what we're here to
talk about
so like and they they both have different
perspectives and i know and even like i
was listening to john young last night on
monday monday night crossfit talk and like
it's like it pains him to give a
compliment to the savon crew you know so
you have like the hillar spin on this
side you have savon and crew on this
side just freaking
either patch things up or just move on
and give me the old content again.
Yeah.
Hiller says he's not feuding.
To be fair,
Hiller just put out a video.
Well, Hiller, to be fair,
the polls you put out this morning on
IG did add a little bit of gas
to the fire.
so um who let the cats out meow
i hear what you're saying about the feud
and yes it is petty but savan's content
has really gone downhill since if you'd
started hillar is the far wittier of the
two hillar said that's fair yeah the first
couple poll questions
i thought were objective and yeah and then
as you got further into it a little
more gas on the fire as it went
like like you said it got off the
deep end but it was clever like i
thought it was funny so it is what
it is at that point it was it
was clever sure but i just
I just want content back that I can
watch and consume and do all that stuff.
Onto what our show is about.
Did you see the dude that broke the
marathon record?
Did you see the fact that the guy
who came in third ran a two-hour marathon
and came in third ran a two-hour flat?
My marathon was
one the one i actually finished took me
like five hours ish something like that i
don't remember exactly but it was a long
ass time for me to be out there
it is you did it too flat it
came in third that's insane well and
nobody had broken two hours before not
well kit joke had broken two hours before
but it was on a very specialized track
like with all these kind of rules set
up he had like
Pacers and all kinds of stuff like that.
He ran a one fifty nine,
but not what this dude ran.
Well,
the dude at the London Marathon went one
went one fifty nine thirty.
He averaged thirteen point two miles per
hour over the run.
And it was like a four thirty three
mile pace.
Yeah.
So.
I want to be what we're talking about
this morning made a good point like like
he he could have been in his last
mile and I couldn't have caught it that's
you know I'm saying like me fresh warmed
up ready to rock and roll this dude
comes flying by on the last mile and
I'm gonna come back and my at my
fastest ever I'm two minutes behind it
uh leader says imagine you're the person
who broke two hours on his debut and
no one is talking about you because you
came in second yeah uh marco calderon uh
the length this was probably off no they
just said london is very it's flat and
it's a very fast course and it is
an official world record um so it had
to have been double triple checked with a
wheel
But but not but not Got that wheel
Somebody out there for Seventeen seventeen
hours just walking the entire time We're
getting close.
Yeah getting close.
Mm-hmm
Yeah, Lito's right.
It's probably going to take a couple
months to absolutely verify.
But right now, yes,
he ran a one fifty nine thirty something,
which is absolutely bananas crazy.
Yeah.
Dude.
Have you seen the new road to the
games, the open?
No,
I haven't had a chance to watch it
yet.
I have it in my queue to pull
up and I started to do something yesterday
and I had to actually do some other
things.
You know how hypercritical I am on the
documentaries and the behind the scenes
and all that.
This is the best piece of content CrossFit
has put out in years.
Okay.
It's like half an hour long.
half an hour, super funny, super engaging.
Like I,
I didn't feel a lull at all.
It combines all three open announcements
into one half hour block.
It, it is so good.
I pulled up one example that is freaking
awesome.
And, um,
it involves Ariel Owen and Danielle
Brandon.
so she asked if i was a football
fan and i was like yeah shout out
to all these men who waste so much
time keeping up with sports teams honestly
like you wake up like how do you
know that much about that many players on
a team you're wasting so much goddamn time
like you're so obsessed with these men
You're obsessed with these men's teams.
Come on.
Which players, what they're up to,
getting traded, this player's doing that.
You know,
there's people who are like that about
you.
I said, she's been traded camps again.
She's been traded again.
isn't that freaking awesome that's
outstanding so now now we got ariel
jumping in on the colton merton's train
yeah just hitting it hitting it right
there in the face that was that was
fantastic she's not wrong she's not she's
not wrong there she's not wrong like you
can wake up in the morning and all
of a sudden there's a spin article about
the fact that she is no longer at
whatever training camp that she's at and
it's not just her
but she happened to be sitting there
talking about it ariel's like yeah people
do that to you yeah the whole thing
has kind of that cadence of i mean
there's a scene with amy kringle and lucy
campbell kringle's got something stuck in
her tooth the way lucy helps her i've
never seen in my life
I've never seen it in my life.
It sounds like it's worth the price of
admission right there.
The men,
Colton is on fire again in this one.
He takes down Hopper in a way that
is immaculate.
Love it.
So good.
I cannot recommend this documentary
anymore.
and sign me up it takes me back
to all over again it is it is
that good i have i bought some of
those uh they got them for sale on
amazon and every once in a while i'll
go back and watch them because they're
that good this is this is that good
beautiful i love it they they try to
dog colton about not putting lettuce on
his bowls
Like,
I don't remember the restaurant they were
at and, and they're trying to dog him.
And Colton's like,
why the F do I need lettuce?
My food eats lettuce.
Lettuce is what my food eats.
That's a great line.
It's a classic line.
Good job, Colton.
there is there is so much good content
in this and it is just bang bang
bang bang bang no laws right through start
to finish as the show's over go check
it out so can we say that jenna
hawker is probably the best hire we've had
in quite some time because she's
responsible for all the meetings
I will say that because she DM me
last night about my penguins, uh,
in support of the penguins.
So yes.
Yeah.
Jenna is the best hire across in CrossFit.
Outstanding.
Outstanding.
Uh, Marcus said they were at whole foods,
uh, Ortega Tyson,
Ian and team did amazing.
They did, but like,
but Tyson and Ian have been there off
and on for a year.
I,
they've been given the right direction or
the editing on this is finally to where
it used to be like it just and
you know hillar says it a lot when
he's watching like world fitness project
videos and he says that could be cut
down from a minute to twenty seconds or
right there is no laws it is really
just bam bam bam bam bam outstanding
Ortega says they were given freedom.
Freedom in a creative direction.
Ian Wittenberg's name is on anything that
comes up.
You just watch the credits.
You're going to run across Ian's name.
Tyson with a whole bunch of different
stuff as well.
From the old stuff, right?
Because like you said,
they've been around for ever in some sort
of capacity.
So
them to be given a direction and hey
let's go create some cool stuff like you
used to like you are capable of doing
and then you come out with this fantastic
not just this obviously all the other
stuff that's been doing uh claire says it
was faster paced than anything i can
recall i i agree it was just and
even when like it was sitting and having
a conversation it was engaging
conversation
like like a clip you just pulled up
that's that's that's top tier stuff right
there right it is um daniel arnson lowen
putting brandon in her place is a thing
of beauty that's how i took it anyway
i it's okay to trash talk yeah
It's okay to call your friend out whenever
they're saying some crazy shit and be
like, hey, bro, people do that to you.
Right.
And we do it every day in the
gym with our buddies, right?
Absolutely.
And I've seen people do it just like
men.
You call your friends out.
You get competitive in the moment.
That's what the beauty of a CrossFit gym
is.
What's real life.
is what it boils down to.
That is two people having a real
conversation who know each other and who
are comfortable enough with each other to
call each other out.
You don't get to see that kind of
stuff.
Everything else is so slick and polished
and whatnot.
When it's real like that,
it shows through.
That was fantastic.
Yeah,
I'm going to watch it this afternoon.
And it wasn't just one-sided.
If you watched any of Waterpalooza,
Danielle has Ariel in her phone as the
stinky girl with her garage gym.
Because she doesn't take a shower after
that, because she's at home.
She doesn't take her shower until after
other chores have been done.
She must stink.
So anyway.
That's fantastic.
And what was Brandon going to say as
a comeback to Ariel?
Nothing.
And I think that Ian was fired from
CrossFit by a previous CrossFit media
director.
That is true.
But that came from on high.
Everybody got fired from that media
department.
The whole thing got canned.
Or take us as Ian is amazing at
what he does and watching him work as
a thing of beauty.
So, yeah.
Um, so great thing.
Go check it out.
Awesome.
You, this is your week, man.
You are headed to magic city.
What, what is your itinerary?
You had now.
I am leaving Thursday morning.
About thirty six, something like that.
Uh, stop, pick up.
Oh boy.
Uh,
Bernard, we are rolling out.
I'll get there in noon-ish,
something along those lines.
I want to get there, get checked in,
whatever that process looks like.
You're at twelve-fifteen?
What's that?
Oh, well, maybe.
I'm just kidding, dude.
Well, depending on who's driving,
I might just call in on my phone
from the car.
It's entirely possible.
depending on where we are anyway uh get
checked in you know go through that whole
process go confirm that it is the bicycle
that i've been riding for the past two
and a half years that we're using um
which is outstanding fyi my component
thing is like we're using a trek marlin
seven and i was like that sounds awful
familiar i go look at my garage i
got a trek marlin six
That's one of my best friend's bikes.
I borrowed it from him because we don't
have a CQ and I need it,
you know, get some biking in.
I've been having it over here.
He lives eight houses down and it's been
in my garage for two years and I
ride it about once or twice a week.
So like, I was like, okay,
so apparently the odds of me doing a
CrossFit semifinal workout with the bike
I've been riding for two and a half
years or a hundred percent,
I would never have guessed that.
Um,
Uh, Hexie lover, Corey,
are you getting any nerves yet?
I'll be keeping my eye on you this
weekend,
cheering you on from the Jersey shore.
No, and I appreciate it.
Um, but no, no nerves.
Um, and I've said,
I've said this to you before a couple
of times, like clear eyes, full heart,
nothing to lose.
That's how I'm going in this weekend.
I'm Mark Phillips to a wheelie the whole
time.
Less friction.
Thanks Mark.
uh anyway get checked in um probably uh
appreciate you biggie probably go either
go yeah probably go uh my buddy has
is a cop up in birmingham he found
he's got a couple different gyms he
suggested for us so probably go get a
quick workout in just to shake the road
off and maybe hit the grocery store and
then uh
get in my Airbnb,
drop all that stuff off, get back.
We got an athlete briefing at six PM.
So be over there for that.
Get some sleep, get my,
knock my thirdsy down,
get some good sleep,
wake up Friday morning,
ready to rock and roll.
You what?
You get your what down?
Yeah, Thirdsy.
I don't know if you've heard of it.
It's a supplement you can take,
and it'll help you kind of decompress for
the rest of the day and get some
good sleep overnight.
You should probably look into it.
It's pretty nice.
I hear you can get fifteen percent off
if you use code Jazzy at checkout.
Damn, that's nice.
So do you have to do like this
when you do Jazzy?
You have to do jazz hands when you
do it,
or you can go to Thirdsy.com backslash
Jazzy and get fifteen percent off there.
How about that?
Oh, Kate.
Kate's going too.
I'm in a group text with Kate and
about eight hundred other maniacs that are
all doing semifinal type stuff.
Yeah, that's easy.
Kate spent more time with that bicycle
helmet on in the past probably five days
than I have in forever.
Her Instagram content has been awesome
watching her workout with the bicycle
helmet on.
Yeah, I did.
I went bald one.
My buddy Sean has a safety third.
Safety third.
I went bald one just to see what
it's going to feel like to have one
on while doing burpee boxing up overs.
Are you telling me you ride a bicycle
without a helmet?
Every day.
Every day.
Now, I did warm up.
On the echo bike Sunday with it on.
As a matter of fact,
I got to the gym.
I got to the gym.
So we have an open gym on Sundays
at Berta's.
And I got to the gym,
and I walked in on the weightlifting side
so nobody could see me.
Not soaking the bike, but nobody saw me.
And I put it on first,
and I went and sat down and talked
to my buddy Aaron for a little bit.
I told him what was going on.
I told him what I had it for,
and I said, but I'm not telling anybody.
I'm just going to walk around with it
on it.
Just let everybody kind of figure it out
on their own.
I wonder anybody born before nineteen
eighty.
If how hard it's going to get beef
to get them to wear the helmet during
the workout.
But we have to.
My guys made that very, very clear.
we are going to be helmeted up because
like people were like,
help to be all nasty.
He's like, dude,
we're gonna be disinfecting them in
between heats.
And there's enough to like cycle out where
it's not just gonna be here's one that
smells like alcohol or whatever.
Helmet on an echo bike makes sense for
when you pass out.
Yeah, no, dude.
Like Yeah, like Mark said, no chance.
No shot.
I did not have a helmet when I
was riding a bike when I was a
kid.
Yeah,
my grandpa would smoke in the car with
us in there.
right in the back,
like in the bed of the truck,
going anywhere, really and truly.
It didn't really matter.
It wasn't just a down the street type
deal.
I was watching live with Kelly and whoever
she was with at the time.
She was telling a story about when she
was a kid,
her parents had the choice between
seatbelts and a sunroof.
And they chose the sunroof.
You know what?
Seatbelts are overrated.
Seatbelts are overrated.
Give me that sunroof instead.
That's hilarious.
My sister used to sleep in the back
window all the time.
Yeah.
In the backpack.
My mom had a Chevy Chevette.
I don't remember.
A little bit of the old thing.
And it had a hatchback on the back.
And if we go somewhere that was like
a long drive,
I'd go all the way in the hatchback
area and I'd just sleep back there.
And I'm still here.
I am very much alive.
There was a comedian one time that was
comparing the ride of a Porsche nine,
eleven turbo Z to a Chevy Chevette.
and basically like a Porsche nine,
eleven turbos,
a hundred and forty miles an hour.
You can drink tea on a saucer.
Yeah.
If you should get it at thirty,
you're going to represent.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know,
drinking tea or anything else for that
matter.
The turbos came with a cassette tape just
that made the engine sound.
More or less.
More or less.
I'm pretty sure it had a four speed.
Like.
Ridden from Ohio to Florida in a bed
of a truck twice.
No helmet.
Dude, my,
my dad built a bed in the back
of our pickup truck.
So we had a cap.
He built like a bunk bed.
And we,
my sister and I would like sleep back
there on trips.
And then we would camp in the back
of the pickup truck.
Sure.
Yeah.
I mean, why wouldn't you?
Mark Phillips,
my mom rolled a Chevette with us in
it.
Surprised it got fast enough to actually
roll.
We had old bus seats.
I mean, whatever you could find, bro.
Going up a hill.
Okay, yeah.
So gravity helped.
Gravity helped.
It wasn't the engine that got it going
fast enough.
No, no.
It was mostly gravity.
It took over at that point.
That's fantastic.
Yeah.
Oh, man.
So I know a lot of athletes are
hopping on a plane to London.
So we have smack in the middle of
the CrossFit game season.
We also have...
wfp doing an event this weekend and there
are a ton of athletes who just competed
at legends who are now going to compete
at the wfp including our very own carolyn
privo she's on the way uh emily rolf
she's going three weeks in a row she's
insane it's
I mean,
so clearly she's feeling good because
she's like, yep,
get on that plane and go to London.
I talked to her last week after Mayhem
for a good fifteen, twenty minutes.
Like, she was hurting after Mayhem.
Oh, I bet.
And to then take fifth at Legends and
now she's going to hop up the pond
and go to London?
That's a long flight, by the way.
london australia the states want to see an
athlete go to the local airport he is
not wrong i remember seeing the automated
shoulder seat belt and thought that's the
future my wife when we first met and
i was dating her she had a beretta
that had that automatic seat belt that
slid back i was like i'm gonna marry
this woman
This woman clearly has her stuff together
because she's got this car that's got,
you don't even have to put the seatbelt
on yourself.
At least not a shoulder strap.
You got to put the lap belt on
yourself.
Yep, yep.
But man,
that was my sugar mama right there.
She could afford the automatic seatbelt.
This lady's going places and I'm going
with it.
And yes,
the first thing to break was the motor
on those.
Oh yeah, a hundred percent.
it would stop like right here drag it
back the rest of the way not fun
uh as a short person those automatic seat
belts were awful uh maybe she's scared she
won't make online she needs to get a
ticket from in person
I think,
I think the woman just likes to compete.
Yeah.
I was about to say it's, she can,
so she will because she wants to.
And I think she wants to travel.
Yeah.
So,
and WFP paying for them to go to
London, right?
Like when I'm part of the contract.
Oh yeah.
She's, she's a pro card athlete.
I'm saying to WFP.
So, Oh no.
a free trip across the pond and I
get to compete and guaranteed money.
Yeah.
Why not?
The other thing about Emily is she's a
master's athlete.
Yes, she is.
She just has not competed in the master's
division.
She is.
I think she's the same age as Carolyn.
She's close.
If not.
Yeah.
I mean, they're pretty close.
Um,
And so, again,
she's one of the people I talk to
probably as frequently as anybody else in
the space.
And I think she just loves the competition
and loves the travel.
And she is, as Ortega put it,
she doesn't have a long career left in
the elite division take advantage of what
you can while you got it and they
got they only invited her to go and
she can go and she should go i
want it
T-Bird asked if I saw the Laura Horvath
doc.
I thought it was pretty good.
Nice to see a more personal side of
her.
I have not yet.
I have it in my,
it doesn't show up in my algorithm.
I've seen it like once or twice.
And I keep telling myself,
need to watch that because it's actually
done by Red Bull and her channel.
And I want to see what Red Bull's
approach is because they're so big in
other alternative sports around the world.
That's the first time I actually even knew
that there,
heard that there was a Laura Hogan.
And it's, I mean, it's a long one.
It's like forty-five to fifty minutes.
Damn.
So I need,
I want to check it out.
I'll definitely look it up.
It's on my list with the Hogan
documentary.
If Rolf is healthy,
she can get a ticket.
If she has a niggle, she won't.
If I was advising her, I would have...
The same thing that happened with Jamie.
I would not have advised them to go
to Legends.
That is not their jam.
I had a conversation with Jamie about that
yesterday.
Same conversation you had.
so anyway okay we have let's look at
the WFP workouts real quick and then we'll
get out of here did you notice the
change in color on there it's not the
dark green much easier to read so this
is team workout why am I doing team
maybe that's why it's a different color
Doggone it.
Oh, well.
Maybe we'll look at it later.
Maybe.
We'll figure it out some other time.
This week.
How is this?
I don't know.
Yeah, see, here's...
So we're in Budapest.
Red Bull was kind enough to invite us
to Laura's documentary premiere.
This place is awesome.
I've heard a lot about it.
Never been in here,
so this is really neat.
We have planned a little workout for you
guys.
So usually I do ten rounds,
but you guys are doing eight rounds.
Nice, Kevin.
That's what's up.
I don't know why I don't stay first.
This is just talking about the premiere.
You can see she actually had a premiere.
T-Bird talked about it in the comments.
She had people come watch it as a
movie.
Cool.
So I just saw that.
So I pulled it up.
Yeah.
Um, yeah.
Leto WFP, Copa, sir,
far East magic city spoiled for choice.
Or if you talk about CrossFit in this
world, one hell of a busy weekend, uh,
can't even imagine i'm putting my phone on
do not disturb friday morning i'm not
thinking at all do not disturb until
sunday evening uh lito i'm looking forward
to watching all the crossfit this weekend
i'm canceling all other plans i wish my
wife would let me uh john young wants
me to rank those in order of what
you plan on watching what's up john
I love the Magic City workouts,
so that will probably be me.
And Corey's going to be there.
And if I have a friend involved,
then that becomes number one.
Carolyn is at WFP,
so I'll be watching that probably second.
And then I will be doing Far East,
but then probably then Copasaur,
then Far East for me.
Annika is a dear friend of mine,
so I want to see her punch her
ticket.
at Copa Sur.
And then I know you, Samantha Pugh,
is over in Far East.
Yes, she is.
So it's really who I care about watching.
You and her, one and two.
And then Annika, three.
And then we'll go Far East and catch
up on that as we can.
If I were not competing this weekend,
I would probably still watch Magic City
just because I know a whole bunch of
people there.
Sammy's at Far East.
Hannah Hardy is actually going to London.
She's flying out right now.
That's another dear friend.
So I'll probably be watching her as well.
If not watching it,
at least just keeping up with what's going
on.
Did you look at the broadcast schedule and
kind of eye out where you're going to
appear?
Cause they are not airing every heat at
magic city.
Correct.
The broadcast schedule,
they are hitting all divisions at some
point during the week and multiple times
of each division, but it's not all five,
six events.
Yeah.
Which I mean, whatever it is,
what it is.
Yeah.
Hey, it's a,
it's a master's competition getting
airtime.
Correct.
on its own yeah um john young is
thinking about playing playing the corn
pepper role for magic city more power to
you i bought flow elite so i'm i'm
in john young goes live john i got
a uh i got a basically a selfie
stick you can borrow it doesn't have a
gimbal on it but
You can just run around with that,
get your mom's heat, if nothing else.
Yeah, I got all the toys.
I've got gimbals.
I've got cameras.
I've got – if my daughter wasn't coming
home next week,
Dex offered me his basement.
I saw that.
And I would have gone down to Birmingham.
But with my daughter coming home next
week, we got too much to get done.
I have not seen...
I have Marissa use the gimbal mid-workout.
Marissa is the one person who probably
could use a gimbal mid-workout and she'll
freaking crush it.
That's fantastic.
No, T-Bird, not a clue.
They have not said a word about who
is actually...
So at this point I would,
I would venture to say the floor
announcer, but you know, beyond that,
I was sitting there thinking this morning,
why not?
If you,
if you don't have the team to bring
in,
why not pump the mics from the floor
announcer into whatever feed you're
showing?
It'd be,
it should be super easy to do.
Because at least you could hear where
they're at during the workout.
Because they walk behind machines and say,
And they say the names of the people.
You'd at least be able to follow the
action without a broadcast team.
Now,
you have the broadcast team and you have
the money to bring them in.
kudos, more power to you.
But if you don't,
why don't they pump that mic through
something so that we can hear it at
home?
It's probably too much of a logical idea.
You can't just expect people to use
anything and react and whatnot with
logical thoughts when it comes to that
kind of stuff.
Yeah.
It can't be that hard to do.
think today i'm gonna i'm gonna look at
the cost of going to syndicate well i've
reached out to wilson he said he'd take
care of me if i wanted to come
down um i just i uh fergie from
the chat texted me and said there's a
lot going on that weekend in knoxville and
the prices of everything have jumped so i
just have to see if it's affordable
because i can make that drive
Mike DeVito, Xenom, High Rocks,
and other comps overseas.
She doesn't need the games.
And that was a response to, besides Rogue,
what other comps are there that aren't a
road to the games?
Mike was asking if WFP went away tomorrow,
what would Laura have?
Like, what would Laura do?
It's not going away tomorrow, so...
I'm aware of that, but...
Scott, come hang at NCC.
We'll both be broke with Cali prices,
but it'll be fun.
That would be a blast.
That would be a blast.
I've just been out of it for so
long with this heart thing,
and now that I'm back and everything's
good,
just trying to figure out where I can
go,
what I can squeeze in to this year.
And I'm already making a trip to Cali
for the games.
Yeah, that's fair.
So...
I think WPS some cool things coming after
twenty twenty six.
John Young with the insider information.
One time WFP hater is now bringing.
Optimism.
To the table.
He's got he's got time to reflect his
post-surgery time.
Not sure why Laura is still a CrossFit
topic.
She's not CrossFit.
Terrible Tesla.
Here's the deal.
Laura is one of the fittest women in
the world.
And we are cheated every time we don't
get her go against the best that are
at the games.
She is it at rogue every year.
She proves it in WFP.
She wins both of those events all the
time.
She is one of the fittest women in
the world.
And I feel cheated as a consumer,
a spectator and a fan that I don't
get to see her go up against the
best.
That is why she's still a topic.
John Young says,
I've always been the least hating of
everyone on that topic,
but I'm still team games all the way.
Well,
I never hated on WFP until they made
it where I actually was very supportive of
WFP as an alternative.
You were basically the only one that said,
hey,
maybe we should wait and see because this
could probably be cool.
Then they kept failing me in that first
season.
I don't disagree.
She's not coming back, though.
Doesn't mean it's just like who's better,
Rich or Matt?
We'll never know, but it's always a topic.
I will say this.
It would be
by earth shattering i don't mean actually
earth shattering but or earth shattering
if she actually announced that hey next
year i'm doing the green season right tia
coming back from pregnancy laura coming
back in that's everything else will fall
by the wayside because people that's what
people want to see
Jenny says a new video is that Ian
did for CrossFit is amazing.
We talked about that a lot at the
top, Jenny.
I even showed the clip of Danielle and
Ariel trash talking in the coffee shop.
We loved it.
Highly recommend.
I think it's the best CrossFit content
that's come out in years.
Yeah.
I hope she does come back it's the
handstand push-up games there have been
handstand push-ups before and she is still
podiumed like everybody makes it sound
like she's she is terrible at handstand
push-ups but other athletes are terrible
at things too
tia except uncle pat uncle pat dug himself
a hole every single games he was in
save like two right uh i think a
thirty-fifth on this first event um take a
thirty-sixth on the first event the next
year and dug himself out and made it
back all the way back to the podium
or can do that laura has done the
same thing so
Uh, Mike DeVito, Scott, I agree.
She is one of the best,
but so was Mal.
Now she makes sourdough bread.
That's my concern for Laura in the next
few years.
But Laura doesn't make sourdough bread.
Laura still owns, she owns a gym.
She competes in major competitions and she
is still very competitive.
As far as you know,
Laura doesn't make sourdough bread.
Laura doesn't make sourdough bread on her
Instagram.
She might be she might make a sourdough
right now.
She might be looking at her starter going
soon.
You don't know.
Mal on the other hand,
what her percent makes our bread and sales
coffee last time we saw.
I think now it's never coming back.
No, I think now.
Had a time.
And then the pressure got to her.
Way too much for being as young as
she was.
And then it all just kind of fell
apart.
And she's happy now.
Good for her.
Mike DeVito says,
Hungarian sour pretzels then.
Then I would be a big fan.
Because I've never met a soft pretzel I
didn't like.
I can probably agree with that.
Yes, Laura sucks at handstand push-ups.
But why do we dog just her about
her one hole when so many athletes have
holes?
Olivia Burstetter hasn't been able to run
all season.
Nobody's talking about that like she can
never win it because of that.
oh it is yeah it is so there
it is enough about laura we talk about
her too much i'm a fan i want
her back i want the best to go
against the best that's it it's not that
i'm campaigning for her to
come back and win or do anything in
all sports i want to see the best
go up against the best and she's one
of the best percent that's it so with
that don't forget to like and subscribe
i'll try to find these stupid world
fitness project workouts with not the team
ones yeah not the team workouts

the Games open version.
