You look bad ass. Oh, that looks amazing adrian i'm hearing that that place seats 800 people it's not very many yeah uh that's not very many well it's all up there yeah that's gonna be wild yeah it's a pretty badass facility so it's not that many compared to how many we're expecting to have on site. So, you know, it'll definitely be, it'll be cutthroat to get in here, but it's going to be awesome. Yeah, like, and we got all the divisions rolling through, like everybody's doing this test. Age groupers, adaptive, young, old, men, women, teams, they all do exactly the same thing. So this is like for the nerds like me, after the whole thing is said and done, you can dig through the forensics and you can be like, hey, cool.

Wow. There's a team athlete out there that would have hung with Tia or some 65 year old that would have been a total anchor on a team or something like that, you know. that would have been a total anchor on a team or something like that, you know? And they all have the buy-in that's the first six rounds before you get to sort of the race and the last two rounds, it's all identical like that? Well, so it's a two-minute clock. The inspiration is like a beep test, right? Where you just run like a 10-yard thing and then the beep gets shorter and shorter and so you just can't keep up. The same kind of deal here

But the trick was like how do you do that make it appropriate for a 65 year old lady and Tia like that's hard So it's got to start off pretty slow roll and if we had an infinite time To do like you just kept going until you failed that'd be great But because we have a thousand heats to run that's just not feasible i mean as it is the pool is opening at eight tomorrow we're running heats all day until like 3 45 or something um so even adding like two or three minutes compounded creates hours in your schedule but but but the final two rounds you you pull the skier as many calories as you can and once you make it to the sixth round, you can do the seventh and the eighth. No.

Well, yes. Sorry, I'm tired and I misspoke there. Yeah, so if you make it past the round 18, I mean, at that point, you've proven that you're going to make it. Right. Then it's just max on both and full send for max scouts wins. Yeah, I like that.

I'll tell you, you'll appreciate this, Evan. That was a toilet thought. Originally, it went 20 calories and then max calories. And it was like, man, there just wasn't enough separation there. If you're a good swimmer, you're going to make it. And then it's just one effort. It wasn't enough of a spread to get points on the board. And I was sitting there in testing week at, at robe fitness. And I was taking a dump and I was like, I got it.

We're going to do two max rounds. And then they got lots of chance to separate. I was wondering if actually you were taking a dump or if it was, because more and more men are sitting now when they pee because of social media so they can have time on their phone. And so I was wondering if it was actually a dump or if you were just getting some social media time and it was just a pee. It was a solid number two. Okay. I want to thank California Hormones for the sponsorship.

I want to thank Brandon Gillum. Appreciate all you guys. Thank you. Thanks for the greatormones for the sponsorship. I want to thank Brandon Gillum. Appreciate all you guys. Thank you. Thanks for the great coverage and all the podcasts. Holy cow. Thank you. Wow. The other day, where's my $1.89 for my internet?

I Venmoed it to you. Check your account. My internet connection. How many lanes will, how many heats will the uh the elite division go in so it's heats of 20 so it'll be 20 men and then 20 women boom okay oh that looks awesome and the cuts are um after at the end of the day tomorrow that's right okay and and will that be a production like will you gather all the athletes together. Okay. And will that be a production? Like,

will you gather all the athletes together? No, because it's going to be a late night. So we'll, we'll gather them back at house. It's a softer, gentler time, Sevan.

Right. We will, we'll gather them back at house and say, Hey, thanks for playing. It's been a lot of fun and check the leaderboard and we'll see some of you tomorrow. Most of you tomorrow. Oh really?

That's how it's going to be? It's late. Like, I don't know what else it's going to, if we have any scoring things to resolve, you know, whatever, whatever. It's right. I just like there to be there with a camera and watch them cry. But that's just me. I'm sick like that.

Fair enough. Might have been a little bit of that with that handstand pushup workout. Although, God, that was awesome. Sousa, were you in the Coliseum for that? I was, yeah. Crap, that men's competition was absolutely insane today. Yeah. I have two questions for you.

I know you don't have a lot of time. I know you don't have a lot of time. When Rebecca Fuselier was carrying the Houssa Fell stone up the Capitol steps and you guys let the crowd in behind her, did you make that decision? Were you like, okay, security, let them in? Or was that the crowd pushed their way through? What happened? No, there was no – hey, CrossFit Games fans are awesome. They all were so good.

For an open course like that where they could have basically just mobbed the field if they wanted to, none of that was taking place. And they were so self-policing. And I think it's a real testament to the people that are involved in this. Like, they really care about the athletes. And it's not like that. They're not going to just jump the fence, you know. And so it was very much, we saw it happening.

She was going to finish last athlete on the field. I went up to her earlier when she was a little further down. And I said, we saw it happening. She was going to finish last athlete on the field. I went, I, I went up to her earlier, uh, when she was a little further down and I said, Hey, real talk, like, are you going to make it? And she's like, yeah, of course. I said, okay, great. We'll let it run. And so, um, when she made that last landing, then I just started waving people in. And then I got the couple of the judges, a couple of the security, basically just make a bit of a barrier so that they didn't get right up on her. Then we just kind of followed from that lead. God, that was brilliant. It was amazing.

It was crazy. I didn't see anything like that. It was absolutely insane. My mom texted me and she said, holy cow, did you see that? I started tearing up. And then an affiliate owner, grown ass man texts me from the East coast season at the same time. Did you see that? I started crying. Yeah. Some powerful stuff. And, uh, I, you know, it's funny. I've had a few affiliate owners come up to me today and say, Hey, thanks. What the

athlete experience so far is going to be really good for my affiliate in the sense that like yeah basics matter and yeah like yeah playing with things and expanding on existing sets matters and that's what i say all the time in my affiliate and i'm like great like that is great and uh like you know think people, because the CrossFit Games is shiny and very visible, they think that it is supported by these other aspects. And it's not true. It's like the Games is there to be the highlight reel for everything else. It's like it's like the somebody said it and I can't remember. It was a good saying. Something about it's the thing that draws you in, but it's not the real thing.

But whatever. They had a good analogy, and I don't have it right now. Was it Chase? No, it was not Chase. Anyway. Yeah. I got to go, though. I got to finish up here and go to bed.

One last question. Okay, quick. The workout that you talked about that would be indicative of like the order in which people win or that the champion would would would win like the one that you thought hey whoever wins this is probably the winner of the crossfit games if you had to pick one is that workout um the shuttle run uh jerks that was yeah that was one that i was like if you do well in both those, like if you took like a first second or like a second third, I'm like pretty hard to. You're the guy. Yeah, that's a pretty good predictor in my opinion.

Okay, awesome. Thanks, brother. You demand. And you can come over and eat some raw meat if you want. there's a place by my house in nashville that uh they do this beef tartar thing and i could live off of that man i could eat that three meals a day every day and not get sick of it so good anyway so good thanks bye uh by him he looked by himself yeah i think he's last night there yeah yeah it's kind of cool that we get to follow him along as he's like and shows his work right like he's not leaving the event going to bed no he's last night. Yeah. Yeah. It's kind of cool that we get to follow him along as he's like, and it shows his work, right? Like he's not leaving the event, going to bed.

No, he's already planning for tomorrow. He's prepping. He's double checking, triple checking. Without. This isn't like, um,

this isn't like, um, um, Oh, So this isn't like, oh, thank you, McDonald's, for being the official sponsor of the Olympics. I'm telling you that this podcast would not be unfolding like this. Some guy who immigrated from Venezuela who is now rich or an author of some book or some doctor somewhere. Or you'd be hearing one of my live calling shows where I talk about abortion and racism. And the reason why you're watching this game stuff is because of people like California Hormones. And really, it's like it's up to our game like 10x. And so the owner of that company is a listener to the podcast uh part of the crossfit community

and uh it's it's been just it's been just fucking amazing they've given us the resources to up our game on our uh social media to send people like uh suza out to the games to um uh basically just reach out to a bunch of people. And I just want to tell you that because I feel like when I talk about California hormones and I give you like the spiel and I'm just going through it and I'm like, hey, if you want to get your blood checked and if you want to get a free consultation from a doctor, these people were already supporting us before we offered that. That was just like something that's come along since then. So they were already like, this was someone who had the means to help support the show. And then that happened.

But that being said, I do, I, every, I want to add value to everyone's business life, everything that they present that I can help them with, especially people who are on the same team, like Gabe or like California hormones. So you can get a free doctor's consultation. You go to their website, CAHormones.com. You use the password Sevan, turn in your blood work and you get a free doctor's consultation. If you live in California, you get the blood work done free too. That's it. There's no obligation. There'll be no spamming you. But then if you find out you do want to get on testosterone replacement therapy, you'll be getting the best stuff from the cheapest price. And you'll be doing it through here and you'll be supporting someone who supported the podcast, which I think is just like cool as fuck because it's doing more than supporting the podcast.

It's driving it forward. Same thing with Gabe. Gabe got that booth. We didn't pay him any money. That shit was expensive as fuck. He's like, hey, it would be cool if I could break even. They told. We didn't pay him any money. That shit was expensive as fuck. He's like, Hey, it would be cool if I could break even. They told him he couldn't even sell coffee there. And then the California hormones people are like, Hey, we'll buy a thousand shirts and you can give them away there. They didn't even, they didn't even ask to put the CA hormones

thing on the, on the back. I didn't even want them doing that and giving away the free shirts. Cause I sell the shirts. I want to make money off you guys, but they're like, no, I give the shirts away free. Anyway, that that's how that shit's playing out. It's just everyone just jumping in. So Jenny, like Jenny Vaccaro, Vaccaro. $9.99. Thank you. Also, as you guys know, like, and I've said this a million fucking times, like if people like Adrian didn't jump in or Lazar Jukic or Rich Froning and Angelo or Taylor and JR or like this show would also be like, I'd just be doing my own thing. Which would be fine. But it really is just hardworking, committed, focused people. is just hard-working committed focused people i was literally on the phone with matt because what we're doing is tomorrow so so oh i gotta explain all this shit to you guys don't tell will branstetter gave this because they put together this fucking insane perfect plan so that you're supposed to wear your ceo shirt on sunday

take a picture post it and then they're going to pick the winner for the bike that we're still going to do that but tomorrow at 3 15 you know they have that beautiful mock affiliate it says forging elite fitness at the venue. At 3.15 tomorrow, we're asking anyone who listens to the Savant podcast to show up there and meet. Ideally, we want you in your CEO shirt, but then you won't be able to wear your CEO shirt Sunday, which we wanted you to do. So now what we're going to tell you to do, this is the part you don't tell Will or Gabe. If you wear it tomorrow, take a picture, but don't post the picture till Sunday. Anyway, if you come there tomorrow at 3.15, even if you don't have the picture till Sunday. Anyway, if you come there tomorrow, three 15,

even if you don't have the shirt, come there. We're going to take a giant group picture. We're going to stream it live. It'll be after the second event tomorrow. Hiller will be there. Susan will be there. Heidi will be there.

They'll be streaming it live. And then afterwards we'll all mosey on over to the, not me too, I guess just not physically. We'll mosey on over to the – yeah, me too, I guess, just not physically. We'll mosey on over to the beer garden and throw one down together. If you guys are nice, maybe Suze will buy one of you a beer or two of you, three of you. Not too many. Not too many on the media card.

So that's the plan. And you can go – if you didn't understand anything i said go to the instagram seven podcast instagram um how would you describe it suza oh i can't hear you suza no um you know that you know there's a mock affiliate there it says forging elite fitness basically when you enter the i think when you enter the venue, it's on the left and the beer garden's on the right. It's basically right in between them there. You know what I'm saying?

And it says Forging Elite Fitness on it, and it says CrossFit Affiliate, and it's basically a mock CrossFit Affiliate that anyone can go into and take a class, and it's basically they set up an affiliate. Oh, now I can hear you. Can you hear me now? Yeah. I think it's probably just through up an affiliate. Oh, now I can hear you. Can you hear me now? Yeah. I think it's probably just through the laptop, huh? Probably.

Okay, now the speaker's on here, but the voice is coming through the laptop. Okay, so when you guys come into the venue, those of you guys that know how the layout is, you walk in, the affiliate's on to your left-hand side, the beer garden's on your right-hand side. We'll meet in front of the affiliate on the left-hand side. We'll take a group photo.

We'll rock across a little pathway and, uh, we'll grab a, we'll grab a brew together. Makes sense. All right. And I'm trying to think if there's any other house cleaning, how cool of Adrian to come on.

So cool. Let's see if I could switch it back to this. Can you hear me still? Oh, that's nice. Yeah, well, for whatever reason, it dropped me off of this and went, could you hear me when Adrian was on? I didn't even see you. Were you there? I just want to show my shirt off.

Oh, yeah, that's dope. dope man that's a dope shirt that's smart that's got some dolly-esque shit to it who is that again that's a alexis raptus yep yeah that's smart it's uh it's it's pretty funny i people have been so generous like giving shirts and stuff like that that i um i didn't even know if i needed to pack any shirts right and then we got some cool stuff i think these will be down at the uh booth too oh my goodness i'll bring this to you oh my god how come i haven't do they have shirts that say that i think they do yeah i'll run into him tomorrow and then are they i saw that one is the person selling that cult shirt is that chase and bill i think so yeah it's all part of the og because you see the little

pukey the clown yeah where where where where are they selling those at the venue i i don't know if they had enough in time to sell at the venue. That Colt one is fucking gnarly. And then we ran into these guys too. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, the Phoenix Project. Is that what that is? Yep. Yeah, the rehab thing, yeah.

Yeah. I think Greg won like their person of the year once or something. Yeah, people have been super cool, crazy supportive, crazy generous, especially everybody coming to say hi and stuff like that. And, you know, telling us, Hey, I'm so-and-so in the comments and, uh, or I love the show. Miss like watch all the time. Never miss an episode. Like really appreciate you guys' support and, uh, letting us know. It's been really cool meeting everybody.

Awesome. Thank you. I'm glad you're doing all that. Uh, ds i fully appreciate your full send on dan bailey day the thing is this i know it's not it's not it's it's it sucks when um you're so fucking good to someone and then they burn you and are part of the the posse that comes to hang your family for whatever reason maybe i did something mean to him fuck i don't know but as far as i'm concerned like i used to eat dinner with him and my kids and it was all fucking love and kumbaya kumbaya i did it bent over backwards i thought for him but either way there could have been misunderstanding he could have not liked me but when you participate in getting me fired from a job that was 15 years of my life and you tell people who are really high up that shit and I know a bunch of

you who, who did it. And, uh, Dan was kind of the most, a little bit of the most hurtful or fucked up. And I don't, and by no means think I need an apology at all. It's not like that at all. But, um, but it is, uh, it's just part of my war chant. Now your name's part of my war chant now. Your name's part of my war chant. I don't know how to explain it. I don't even hate the guy. But that woke fucking duality fucking backstabbing shit, it's just fodder for me to party with.

And part of me, i wish the best for him i hope god i hope marriage doesn't well be as kids i hope like he can you know live a good life but um the the that lack of integrity and that that intersection in his life and my life intersected and how he chose to uh deal with it at the end it's now part of my story when it comes out of my mouth that motherfucker's gonna get run over by a bus every time i got nothing nice to say about him in that regards that's how it ended the worst kind i think i think they even have a character like that in the bible backstabs people julie judah jud, one of those guys. So, but yeah, thank you.

It felt kind of good. It was fun. I've alluded to it. And like I said, a lot of your heroes did that shit. A lot of the people you guys love did that. That I was fucking close with. They could have just called me. Yo, dude, what the fuck? Anyway boz not boz he's a good dude
