I can be like, bam, we're live. I can be just like looking at my phone and all of a sudden be like, holy shit, I need to be in the shower five minutes ago. Yeah, trying to keep up with that thread's crazy sometimes. Oh, the sausages one?
Starting point is 00:01:19 Hey. Hey. I got my new Alex Gazan card, and it came with this stand. That's a nice stand. These stands are – do you own any of these cards? Yeah. I got the original Colton one. Okay.
Starting point is 00:01:38 This stand sucks. Every time I touch the chocolate penis back there, all those cards fall over. You must be picking those up all the time. Yeah, and you know how, dude, I want to ask, I wonder, can I just buy a bunch of these card stand? They have those on Amazon. Yeah, for sure. I need a bunch of those.
Starting point is 00:02:00 Jody Lynn, good morning. Hey, good morning. Good morning. Good morning, good morning, good morning. Good morning, good morning, good morning. Christine Young, good morning. Two hours with Hiller last night. Geez. You know, the thing is I needed to catch up with Hiller.
Starting point is 00:02:14 Worried's not the right word. I'm never worried about him. But I just trip on the fact that he's going through a lot right now. We played an animation of that surgery his wife had, and that surgery his wife had looks horrible. Hey, Greg, what's up, dude? Kid, what are you doing? Hanging out, talking about card stands.
Starting point is 00:02:36 I got this friend of mine makes playing cards, and he got this new stand. And so when the card sits in it it it doesn't um i'm not it doesn't fall over as opposed to hey had these kind and every time i set up my cards just in the back there if you touch one card they would all fall over like dominoes it made me hate him the cards everything about it business cards no just like they're just like a athlete playing cards that he sends me this guy wad zombie makes him he's a mean guy but he also makes playing cards that he sends me. This guy Wad Zombie makes them. He's a meme guy, but he also makes playing cards.
Starting point is 00:03:11 And so I like to support him and put the cards up in the back there, but I was wanting to kill myself because they were always falling over. Do you have anything like that in your life that falls over and it's like it shouldn't be falling over? This gizmo here. Oh, yeah, that's the exact shape of my card thing that I hated. What is that for? It's for the iPhone. Is yours good?
Starting point is 00:03:32 This is the best of them. I've gone through Amazon and I think I bought them all. I have all your rejects. Whenever I go over to your house, you're like, here, you want this? Yeah, I do. You've got a lot of them, like those silicone ones. Yeah, I see a pile of them over there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:50 Rejected iPhone stands. Well, here's the super dad thing. I can't tell you how many times we've ruined a meal because the iPhone playing Frozen tipped over the salt shaker. Oh, right. Right. the iPhone playing frozen tipped over the salt shaker. Oh, right. No, it's an issue always to demo anything,
Starting point is 00:04:11 show something on the iPhone. Do you hold it? They hold it. You both hold it or you prop it up against some shit and it keeps tipping over. Right. Yeah. And this, and this solves that.
Starting point is 00:04:20 I keep it in my backpack. So along the same vein of a superficial uh conversation um is your hair your hair looks different and i'm thinking it's because you're it's like when i go to tahoe my hair changes i jumped out of the shower and i didn't see my hat and so here i am oh does your hair change in idaho what's that it looks like you use soap and cream rinse this morning like conditioner no what i mean does your hair change when you go to idaho you know what i mean how in Idaho? What's that? It looks like you used soap and cream rinse this morning, like conditioner. No. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:04:46 Does your hair change when you go to Idaho? You know what I mean? Like sometimes like if different elevations or you go to a different town, you're like, well, my hair feels different. It's different in Arizona dry than Santa Cruz humid. Right.
Starting point is 00:04:58 But I probably notice that more from hearing the girls talk about it. Right. Maggie's profoundly sensitive to that whereas you just jump out of the shower and look for whatever i mean i look at bald guys and i'm kind of there's some part of me that's jealous right me too they're just there at the fuck off thing but look at you you you got your hair has hair right hey um what another crazy thing is. Good morning. Good morning, Greg. Where's Caleb? Working, I'm sure. Working for the government.
Starting point is 00:05:36 Hey, bald dude, there's always like this thing about bald dudes, like having hair is better. And like, I don't see any ugly bald dudes like i've never seen ugly bald no it's the in-between that's pathetic right the clink the clinging to the 742 hairs you have left you want to you want to be like mikey weaver you know at the first hint of baldness start starts shaving that's what he did it seemed it he's been bald the whole time i've known him and he's been one of the most attractive men ever according to all of the females around me including my fucking dog right everything with the vagina you sleep i had a dog and you'd say mike weaver and she'd run to the door and bark at the sound of his name he'd come into the gym and she'd hide
Starting point is 00:06:25 behind the weight tree and look at him was that athena yeah yeah she had a she had a man crush did my dog had a man crush on that kid um uh does pat sherwood hate this podcast why is he stuck in this man does he have 742 hairs? Why would he hate it? Or because we talk about real shit even when we talk about superficial subjects. I'm going to go with that. Does he? Does Pat hate it? No, I have no idea. Someone did send me a DM
Starting point is 00:06:56 the other day and goes, where's Pat Sherwood? I haven't heard from him in years. I don't even think he was involved in the games coverage this year. I don't know what happened to him. Kind of just fell off the... I don't know what happened to him. Kind of just fell off the... I don't know what happened. Maybe he got a real job or he's busy. Hey, do you sleep with an animal in your bed, Greg?
Starting point is 00:07:13 You should... You know, Ripple get on the bed. He likes to put his head on Maggie's feet. And if you want a position in the bed and the dog's there, do you work around it or do you just push him off? Like it's three in the morning and you're like, fuck, I need my feet where that dog is. I find myself accommodating and I wake up
Starting point is 00:07:34 a little irritated. Yeah. I used to have a cat that would sleep in the bed with me and I'd find myself arched and I'm falling off the bed and it's because the cat kept not pushing pushing pushing in the small of my back and you'd accommodate it to the point of waking up getting pissed at the cat but i tell you what dog in the bed what i like is that uh
Starting point is 00:07:56 growl that wakes me up like you heard something outside a raccoon or a skunk or i mean just you know there's a there's a lot of comfort in putting a japanese tea garden bells on all the doors and sleeping with a bunch of chihuahuas and a 40 cal next to the bed you know yeah security so you sleep with a woman a dog and a gun next to your bed that kind of of thing. Right. That's your ideal situation? Sure. Last night I woke up, and I'm on the edge of a king-size bed because there's a dog that's only a 14-pound dog that has moved me over there. I was fucking irritated when I woke up. And it bites.
Starting point is 00:08:41 My dog bites, so I can't move him. It sounds like our bird. and he's almost dead this is gonna sound horrible this is gonna sound really bad i won't say it but you know what i'm thinking right whatever he's old as shit dude he can't i've known him as long as I've known you. Right. That's true. That dog shit in my closet. Hey, many times. Hey, listen, here's one thing. I don't like to do this to my guests, but here's one thing that you were definitely wrong about.
Starting point is 00:09:17 You thought for sure that dog would be eaten by a coyote. You made that hypothesis several times. It's not often you're wrong, Greg. there's still time there's still time it would fit in a bread box and you ran it over and it was fine my dog yeah yeah he did get run over someone ran it over right yeah he did get run over yeah yeah you wrapped it you wrapped a paper towel around his leg. And he was better. And a sock with some tape. Hey, that happened exactly how you said that shit happens.
Starting point is 00:09:57 Basically, I had that dog. Haley and I took care of it like it was our kid, like we were mentally ill. We had kids. Within a year of Avi being born, that dog ran over by a car because we neglected it. We just stopped paying attention. Benign neglect. You open the car door and you don't give a fuck where he is.
Starting point is 00:10:13 You go tend to the kid in the back seat. And then Parmesh wandered off onto Old San Jose Road and got run over. Exactly. You predicted that. You did predict that. That should have killed him. You could have been right with two. Exactly. You predicted that. You did predict that.
Starting point is 00:10:24 That should have killed him. You could have been right with two. I locked him in the car one night, Greg, and by two in the morning, we couldn't find him. And I had checked the car, and I still couldn't find him. And Haley had already pulled all his dog food and bowls and leashes because, you know, all the coyotes around here in Mountain Lions. And by seven in the morning, like, I checked the front door, and allits that all of his shits there like she's giving up already he's toast and i go to get in the car and he's frozen in there i told you that story right i probably called you like oh shit i remember that i remember that. I'm glad it had a happy ending. We've had some dudes on here. It's kind of interesting, the intersection between flat earthers.
Starting point is 00:11:16 We had a flat earther guy on here who was just really fucking hostile. And then you got these brilliant guys who are fucking PhDs like Jay Cooey, And then you got these brilliant guys who are fucking PhDs like Jay Cooey, who then have also spent three years of their own time becoming what's I think a higher level than PhD in like immunology, right? He doesn't have the piece of paper, but he knows more about immunology than fucking probably the best immunologist in the world because of his own just insane passion to try to figure out what's going on and between these people there becomes this intersection and one of the things that you and i were talking about and it was this i think it was a video that you sent me as rfk's look at the uh cia and this this guy came on the show who was who was a little bit i don't know i don't know how you would describe him, but he was the flat earther dude. And he basically said NASA and the CIA were money laundering operations.
Starting point is 00:12:16 And so even if they weren't created for that, the way RFK is now describing the CIA is basically it's a money laundering operation. Yes, it's worse than that. It's worse than that? Yeah, yeah. He's saying that it's a that its purpose is to provoke war to support the military industrial complex. And that his uncle JFfk um figured that out and my problem with and that's why they killed him what's that and that's why they killed him no i'm not not going there at all okay okay going there at all okay um yeah you you know we it, the realities of his FDA and the CDC is.
Starting point is 00:13:47 realized that what the role of the FDA and the CDC is. And we live in a world where there's enormous comfort between, say, Coca-Cola defeated the dialysis people in big pharma. Right. To the point where nothing can be trusted that comes out of the CDC on the subject of chronic disease? Nothing. Nothing. And so how similar is that and how hard of a stretch would it be to believe that, for instance, what's happening in Ukraine right now and look at the amount of armament that's being sent from around the world and who's benefiting from that where's where's the profit going and the amount of money is is breathtaking yeah billions i mean he even says in this interview that you sent me hundreds of billions hundreds of billions right maybe trillions oh Oh. Maybe I did see a number on that.
Starting point is 00:14:46 Hold on. Something I was looking up that you sent me. Oh, we'll get to that in a minute. You sent me something else that fucking blew me away. Yeah, it's good like vaccines. Meaning it's just a cash cow. The amount of financial clout and all of that. But the way the conspiracy theorists, and I say that in quotes, bring it up is like that it's a decision that's made in order to make money as opposed to the way you present it.
Starting point is 00:15:21 It's just an alignment or intersection of needs right so coca cola needs the fda to say that you could that coca you can drink three cans a day and that you can exercise away the the coke and so they kind of like and the fda is also trying to say healthy things to society you see what i'm saying you're not making it i think dow described it as a conspiracy of interests conspiracy of interests and less so than a bunch of interests. Conspiracy of interests. And less so than a bunch of guys sitting around in a room. Right. Smoking cigars, plotting and planning. They don't have
Starting point is 00:15:52 to do that. And so Coca-Cola isn't the enemy of the dialysis industry or of nephrology. It's a partner. And so is pharma.
Starting point is 00:16:06 They're partners. We have an interesting thing in conspiracy law, and there's not a requirement that the left hand knows what the right hand is doing. And I believe that was actually part of a judicial decision, something before the Supreme Court. One of the sides made that point. And it's important in that what we need is that the combined efforts be mutually beneficial and both parties' contributions illegal. And I think we have a legal conspiracy.
Starting point is 00:16:45 Some lawyers out there, Dale Saron can call me up and correct me, but I believe that's the nuts and bolts of it. And so what you find is that we have an alliance where my criminality and your criminality benefit us both well, and we have mutual respect for one another, but where there's no handshakes, deals or maybe even a phone conversation so there's no it becomes an awareness game there's no well i'm stealing the shit and you're selling it for me you know and as long as i don't as long as no one can prove that i knew it was stolen it's all good yeah and i'm not sure
Starting point is 00:17:22 where it's going what i stole on there's a lot there's. Yeah. And I'm not sure where it's going, what I stole. There's a lot of that, but look it up. It's about the concept was that the left hand need not know what the right hand's doing for there to be a legal conspiracy. Hey, I wonder if on the simplest level, if you, if you, let's say you stole a bike and you sold it to me and I didn't, and you're just walking down the street and I bought it from you. Am I complicit in the crime or no? Well, you know, at the point that we're doing 50 bikes a day. Oh. Things get interesting.
Starting point is 00:17:57 I'm hoping the bike, okay. And that's the whole pawn shop thing. Then it's like, hey, the pawn shop's just buying stolen shit. Our friends, the Frankles, the Play It Again sports people, one of those wonderful brothers opened up a used tool business. And the first companies were crack smokers bringing in tools. And then the next thing that came in were the cops. And then it was the people who had their tools stolen.
Starting point is 00:18:25 And that was kind of the routine for the business. It was crackheads, meth heads, police, and people who had their shit ripped off. Dude, stealing tools is a crazy business. You know where I live. I live out in the middle of nowhere. And my neighbor's a contractor. And the only crime we've ever had here in five years is someone came to his house and fucking pulled his tools all out from the the drawers underneath his truck and stole them and it's obviously someone who knew him right yeah yeah tools are
Starting point is 00:18:55 tools are crazy or any construction sites they're just targets for thieves you know how you get into this you've gotten into like genres of um videos um many years ago we had these hot air balloons flying over i was just thinking of that i was just thinking of that exactly like literally we lived in this house greg and i together and these bit you would hear this and you'd go out in the front yard and right above you you could throw a rock and hit it was a half dozen hot air balloons we had one go down in the neighbor yard and right above you you could throw a rock and hit it was a half dozen hot air balloons we had one go down in the neighbor's backyard and then this is the people across the street and so the balloons draping canoping over the house right and people just
Starting point is 00:19:34 crying and so the balloons fly over the house and my kids run inside screaming and it just because a balloon went over and i go what's the matter with you and they said those things are dangerous and i go like that's bullshit they're not dangerous and colleen says just go on youtube and look and so that night i did i was calling your daughter yeah and i watch hot air balloon crashes for like five six hours. And everyone who takes a hot air balloon videos it and they go down all the time. And you can categorize them. You could do a whole taxonomy of hot air balloon wrecks. Power lines, right? It's horrible. They're horrific. But my favorite was the one that settles down on the freeway in rush hour traffic and nobody slows. The cars are just going around it?
Starting point is 00:20:31 Oh, no, right through it, hitting the back. Oh, shit. No one slows. There's no brake lights. Kai lands on a freeway going 70. I've become fascinated with these videos they're just all over they're all over now all over california of um uh smashing grabs have you have you got have you seen that it's just 30 kids go into a nordstrom and take everything into a gucci store there's a new one
Starting point is 00:20:56 every single day there was this movie i never saw it called the purge but it was like i think the premise was crime was legal for 24 hours and like that shit is like it almost seems like it's happening in california like just groups of kids are just going i don't even know if they're kids they're adults something and you just see them like i saw one yesterday it was crazy was that it was it was the nordstrom's 30 people went in and like you know how everything's like chained up so as they're running out the store like the the the racks are coming with them with you know 30 feet of steel cable what would you do do you have what do you think should be done with that i think the law should be enforced and that happened by the way what we
Starting point is 00:21:44 called the topanga Plaza. It was the mall that I went to as a kid. Yesterday, the Nordstrom one that's happened? The LA one? Yeah. I just saw it yesterday. That was in Brazil. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:57 Just a couple of miles from where I grew up. You found it, Sousa? It's been a national story the footage was dramatic the the nordstrom's on hey but there's ones every day there's gucci and there's ones every day i mean i'm just i just can't even believe what i'm seeing but you know listen it's not forget the everydayness about it it's not everywhere right i'll just share with you, we've not had that problem in Scottsdale nor in Coeur d'Alene. Right. Okay.
Starting point is 00:22:31 You know? Okay. The guys at my Apple store in Scottsdale, I think they'd knock your teeth in if you tried to leave with an iPad. Which I'm okay with that. Well, that's what it has to be. Private property needs to be protected at any cost. You don't have a civilization without it. Right. It's not because we're superficial.
Starting point is 00:23:01 It's not because we're putting property over life. It's because it keeps the thread of our civilization going. You don't have a civilization without private property. What do you have? LA. LA? Oh, my goodness. Portland.
Starting point is 00:23:23 Chicago. Eaton Beaver. Good morning, Coach. Eaton, how are you, man? Did we ever get to the bottom of our – did we ever agree? You and I had a dispute at the Del Mar house. I believe that the girl across the street was a – there was a beautiful mom, beautiful dad there, and two kids.
Starting point is 00:23:42 I believe one of the daughters was a dwarf, and you and Haley didn't believe me. I feel like I won that. Did I ever win that? Yeah, you nailed that. Okay. Okay, good. There you go. Look it.
Starting point is 00:23:52 I'm just tearing Greg apart today. He thought my dog was getting eaten by coyotes. I was right about the dwarf thing. Even my wife's getting thrown under the bus. I think both cases were some kind of hopeful thinking on my part. She was a really cute girl. She was just a six-year-old who looked
Starting point is 00:24:12 like a three-year-old. When we moved to Solano Beach from that house, we stayed close to them. Oh, you did? Yeah. I hope they're not watching. It doesn't matter. So, RFK, Vivek Ramaswamy, these guys are saying – Trump, they're saying they're going to dismantle the CIA. Do you think that's possible or rework it, retune it up? It probably needs to be retooled. But let's go to the 50 former Intel people that conspired with the Biden campaign to deny the reality, the obvious reality, by the way, the obvious reality of the Biden laptop. of the Biden laptop and all of the implications therein. And they're enormous, including the complete and total corruption
Starting point is 00:25:12 of the president of the United States. It's all there. You know, when I talk to some people about that who are Democrats, they have the exact same response they had about the injection. They go, well, you can't really know the truth. We didn't know the truth. You can't really know the truth. And it's like, dude, the news station that you watch said that 50 intelligence officers – can you find the list of the guys who signed that, Sousa, by any chance?
Starting point is 00:25:39 Fifty FBI intelligence officers signed saying – It was former national security types. All agreed that mostly in intel it was a who's who and uh i have to believe that no one on the list is a is a for real moron. And that's what it would be to look at the evidence presented by Miranda Devine, I think it is, in that Laptop from Hell book, to look at that offering, watch the videos, and not realize the authenticity of it. Look, I was handing out the book as a Christmas gift ahead of the, it seemed to me, ahead of the significant push to deny the reality of the thing. And the absurdity of that comes from the fact that not even Quentin Tarantino can write script that good.
Starting point is 00:26:47 And I'm talking about the text between Hunter and his wife and his brother's widow. Right. widow right and there's a real realistic tragedy to it that no novelist has ever been able to create and you have to be kind of numb to things like knowing the difference by looking between a video of people and a dramatic presentation right are you fooled how how long do you have to look at something to tell whether it's documentary a video of people and a dramatic presentation. Right? Are you fooled? How long do you have to look at something to tell whether it's documentary footage or a motion picture?
Starting point is 00:27:31 Right. Or a creative film? Everyone can do that almost instantly. And this had that to it. So my presumption is that all 50 of them knew damn well it wasn't Russian, that it was authentic. them knew damn well it wasn't russian that it was authentic and they weren't no one had any interest in in in hiding the fact that that hunter snorts coke and jerks off on pizzas i don't think that was i don't think that was really their effort but what it does lay bare is the corruption of
Starting point is 00:28:01 of joe biden that's that was election fraud though right anyone who Biden. That was election fraud, though, right? Anyone who says there wasn't election fraud is like, hey, that laptop was suppressed because of the election. That's just straight election fraud, right? To alter the election. Yeah. Can you pull that back up again, Susan? It did. Of course.
Starting point is 00:28:18 It did. More than 50. This is from October 2020. This is from October 2020. More than 50 former senior intelligence officers, officials, have signed on to a letter outlining their belief that the recent disclosure of emails allegedly belonging to Joe Biden's son has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation. Can you click that sign on the letter? Is that a hot link? Yep.
Starting point is 00:28:45 Let me switch the screen so you guys can see it. Greg, I wonder if there was even ever a letter that was signed or if that was just said. Oh, we know. It's understood now. Someone fessed up to writing it and passing it around and getting them to sign it. Is it chat GPT? No. Wow. It starts off with, we are all individuals who devoted significant portions of our lives to national security.
Starting point is 00:29:12 And the irony is that they were, say that again. Professionals as experts. That first line is to lead you to believe that they know, they dedicated their lives. Scroll down. Let me see. I believe that in testimony, when put to heat, I think the author fessed up to writing it and admitted that, of course, it wasn't true. Keep going, Susan. I want to see the people who signed it.
Starting point is 00:29:42 I want to go down there and read some of the names. Oh, here we go. Signed clapper national uh director of national intelligence mike hayden central oh cia geez former nsa holy shit this guy's been the director of the cia the nsa and the deputy director of national intelligence oh leon panetta signed it. Wow, it is a who's who. You're right. It was important to them to hide the Biden corruption. What do you think about this comment? Eric Utley, careful. Yeah, it could get canceled.
Starting point is 00:30:27 Clock wants to rework the first sentence and call it, we are individuals who have dedicated our lives to lying and deception. There's a truth to that. It's all CIA. Man. man and what about the people that say what about the argument that um hey trump does the same thing um his son took a billion dollars from the saudis well you know all that stuff um um yeah the the problem is this is the Ukraine or China because of what they have on them. Both my parents worked for Hughes Aircraft Company and my grandpa worked for Howard Hughes. I worked there briefly. And the problem they had with your alcoholism and your affairs had nothing to do with your fidelity or your drinking.
Starting point is 00:31:49 It had to do with your vulnerability to the other team. And it was around those issues that you could be driven to espionage. you could be driven to espionage. And I have a hard time believing, given what we know about the Biden's involvement with China, that they don't have more than enough ammunition to prove to the world that he's a fucking crook. And I think it affects everything he does in regards to them. That seems entirely plausible to me to the point of being probable. I think it takes a
Starting point is 00:32:35 naivete to think that he's taken millions of dollars from those people, and we know he has, millions, spread it all throughout his family to hide him taking it. We know his take was half of anyone in the family that laundered money. Hunter makes that perfectly clear, complains about it. We also know that Hunter was making fun of his father's senility, his cognitive decline, when he was vice president. He says something to the effect he's he's he's he's he's impaired to the point he couldn't find his way back to the white house if he were if it weren't for secret service this is when he's this is when he's vice president i want to say that this next comment that i'm about to read to you facetious or sarcasm
Starting point is 00:33:26 I think facetious is the better word but I don't think it is this is going to blow you away brace yourself I can't believe intelligent smart Americans like you still believe the election was stolen first of all
Starting point is 00:33:41 hold on this is fucking crazy let me start with this moron i said it was stolen we haven't even talked about that i know i know that that was gonna go straight there too i was gonna go dude yeah dude and then and then how low and shitty would have this is where i think it's facetious this is because he says how low and shitty would the u this is where I think it's facetious. This is because he says how low and shitty would the U.S. have to be in order to have that happen? First of all – To ignore the evidence on Biden's corruption, you have to pretend like I said the election was stolen. Right.
Starting point is 00:34:17 Again, I'm following your argument. Fuck off. Next. What else? Crazy. Hey, dude, you're not listening. Here's the reason why I think it's not facetious, because he says, what about Donald Trump? If you would have left that out, I would have been like, OK, that's funny.
Starting point is 00:34:31 Yeah. Listen, I can accept everything that you could say about Donald Trump. I believe that there was video of prostitutes urinating on him, and the Russians were bribing him or blackmailing him. You mean Trump? That was like the Rich Carlton in Moscow or something, supposedly? That was the story. That's what the Clinton campaign came up with, and it seemed entirely plausible to me. It turned out it was made-up bullshit.
Starting point is 00:35:02 Yeah, it was. Or we would have seen that for a fucking fact, right? That been in the new york times in abc news since dnn we'd have all seen him getting urinated on i presumed by the way that was the washington post that slipped that in there like you know what i mean there's such scumbags over there the urinating on the bed yeah i don't i don't have any there's uh i don't think that trump and i've never heard him accused of this quite i don't think that that he is uh vulnerable to blackmail by the Chinese or the Ukrainians. And I find it nearly inconceivable to think that Joe Biden does not. I like it when they accuse him like, hey, you haven't paid any taxes.
Starting point is 00:35:56 You took your bad guy. He's like, no, I took advantage of the tax law so that I wouldn't have to pay taxes just like the rest of the politicians. Like he just leans right into it. Yeah, of course. Is it just like Hillary's donors over here? Like he just leans right into it. Yeah, of course I did that. He said, just like Hillary's donors over here. And he starts naming all of them. And he goes, and that's why she's not going to change it because she's helping all of her people out. And anyone who says that stuff,
Starting point is 00:36:13 no human beings paying extra taxes just to be good. I bought an airplane for $750,000. And then that year got a $500,000 tax credit. Thanks to Barack Obama. Oh, I remember that. And I was like, you're kidding me.
Starting point is 00:36:32 Like, yeah, the more you spend, the more you get back. And I was like, but this is the guy that's going to stop the corporate greed and corruption. How's this work? And it was explained to me,
Starting point is 00:36:43 just watch and see what he's flying around in when he gets out. And he's flying around in something nice? Of course he is. Take the hardware of your choice. Dusty Willard, great. I really liked that photo if you took that, by the way. Coach, can you speak to any research
Starting point is 00:37:04 or empirical evidence that you have come across of the methodology of improving cognitive disease? I think what he's asking, if someone has Alzheimer's, is there some protocol you would put them on in order to rehabilitate them? Yeah, I would treat it like type 2 diabetes or any kind of signs of a metabolic derangement. And I think it's consistent with that. When Alzheimer's was referred to as type 3 diabetes, it was always done so with laughter.
Starting point is 00:37:38 It brought laughter. And then it became a Google search term, and then it's no longer laughter. And then it became a Google search term and then it's no longer laughter. It's that those advanced glycated end products, you know, when you hear glycation, if you don't think about sugar and the phenomenon of glycation and the covalent, permanent covalent bonding of proteins to sugars is a, is a problem everywhere. And I think it's, I think it's an issue in insulin resistance and diabetes. I think it's a problem in coronary artery disease with the vaso vasorum.
Starting point is 00:38:22 And I think it's playing some formative role in advanced glycated end products that are this, the tau bodies and such that are symptomatic of Alzheimer's. And you don't have to be too much of a clinician to look around in your own family at dementia and the interest of your demented loved ones in sugar and refined carbohydrate. And it was Russ Green that pointed out visiting his Nana in the nursing home, who I believe was, it hit triple digits, that they had separated at the nursing home at the facility in convalescent care. The people that talk to each other and those that didn't. And he said that the table that those that don't talk, they're just sitting there with their white plastic spoon and dessert.
Starting point is 00:39:18 And where everyone was conversing, it's like normal meals looking on the plate. conversing, it's like normal meals looking on the plate. And does the cognitive decline leave you to this point where you only want to, you know, ice cream? That wouldn't surprise me also. But I know in my family, all of the, in my southern family, all of the, in my Southern family, the dessert mavens have been, have found themselves in early cognitive decline.
Starting point is 00:39:58 Famous for your pound cake and your, and your early senility. What about, so what about ketosis, putting yourself into ketosis and Alzheimer's? Yeah. Can't be a bad place to sniff around. I would expect you could stop the rate of decline. That wouldn't surprise me. Reversal?
Starting point is 00:40:29 Are there any? Is there anyone who claims? Well, I'm sure there's someone who claims it who's reversed Alzheimer's. Yeah, I'm sure you can go to Mexico and get anything cured. Right. Deja Entendu. I second Dusty's comment very interested in Alzheimer's
Starting point is 00:40:48 prevention or slowing its progress my parents are aged and susceptible genetically David weed how about the two billion the two billion Donald Trump son son-in-law got from the Saudis.
Starting point is 00:41:06 Let me just start here. How about the fact he didn't hide it? That there were no shell companies? That he wasn't hiding it? How about just starting there? Yeah, I'm... We could go through a list of, of, of politicians and, and, and the crazy wealth that's come their way. It's kind of the California story with politicians.
Starting point is 00:41:42 California story with politicians. That's, I'm not, I'm not bothered by the fact that Joe Biden profited from his position. I'm bothered by the fact that it seems likely that he sat with Xi Jinping and Xi told him, I can undo you. And I imagine Joe says, yes, sir, I understand. He acts that way with regards to them. He acts like that. It explains a lot. I have trouble imagining him taking millions of dollars he did from them and them not doing it for the reason of exactly what I suspect has happened is that it was a it wasn't to to cotton favor from a has been clearly incognito decline vp it's that if this ever if this guy ever makes it to president we have him by the balls
Starting point is 00:42:57 right and they do they do yeah how could they not how could they not you better not send him any fucking money without getting him on tape admitting to the whole thing. Right. And we know that one politician that got caught up with the Chinese spy that then slept with him. What was his name? Eric something or other.
Starting point is 00:43:19 Oh, man. And I mean, got caught red-handed sleeping with Eric. Swathwell? Swar swats what was his name yeah hey i'm sean i keep seeing your comments in there about um uh what's his name showering with his daughter i went online and i looked everywhere for the official pictures of the diary i went to the page numbers i read i didn, I didn't actually ever see that in the diary. That's why it's hard for me to like to go there. The whole showering thing with his daughter. I mean, don't, I'm not Eric Swalwell, Judy Reed. Thank you, Judy.
Starting point is 00:43:59 How was the games? No one, no one, no one gets anywhere with me in terms of my suspicions of the Biden administration by pointing out anything with Trump. Yeah. You know, here's what I like about Trump. By the way, I've never heard you start a sentence like that. I love the anger and pain he causes those whom he angers and pains. I feel like the left deserves that piece of shit. That's my gift to my liberal friends is donald trump
Starting point is 00:44:46 and this is in the same spirit of michael moore's announcing his trump's win in 2015 and that was it's a giant fuck you it's the m80 in the mailbox to the grumpy neighbor you don't like right and i like that too my liberal friends and family deserve that piece of shit he's the least he's the least talented least capable of everyone on the Republican ticket. Hey, when you're platforming, so I was a Democrat forever, and one of the premises of the party is peace and love. And Donald Trump's running on,
Starting point is 00:45:39 hey, I'll stop the Ukrainian war in 24 hours. And then they asked, why would you do that? And he said, so people will stop dying. I believe him. I think he calls Putin the war stopped, and I think he doesn't want it. I think he wants to stop it so people stop dying. I don't think he has a financial interest in it. Me personally. I really like Vivek. God, I really like Vivek.
Starting point is 00:46:07 God, I really like Vivek. A serious conversation needs to be had about our willingness to allow Putin and friends to reassemble the Soviet Union by force. friends to reassemble the Soviet Union by force. And I think it's reasonable to believe that if he's allowed to do that in Ukraine, that all the rest of them would be next. How many
Starting point is 00:46:37 countries is it? Is that the... There's a word for them. But listen, who just joined NATO? Was it Finland and Sweden? They did? They just joined? Yeah. Right?
Starting point is 00:46:57 Since the invasion. NATO newest members. Oh, Finland. Oh, wow, okay, yeah. Finland became NATO's newest member today, April 4th, 2023, upon depositing its instrument of ascension to the North Atlantic Treaty with the United States. Wow. You know, and to think that the Finns don't understand
Starting point is 00:47:22 the Russians in their nature and soul and character and temperament would be to be foolish. Yeah, they're mortal enemies. I think they have clear understanding of who those people are. Yeah. And I would be sympathetic to giving Ukraine whatever was needed to stop Putin. I also think that the – I'm also fairly okay with testing our hardware against his. You think that's part of it? Of course it is.
Starting point is 00:48:09 Wow. God, I wonder what took Finland so long to jump on board. Oh, this is what's happening. My point is that I think the I think the aggression on on Ukraine, though it perhaps was promoted by our efforts there, I think Finland, Norway, Sweden, I think they all see it for potentially what it is. That is, the plan is to reassemble the old Soviet Union by force, and one domino at a time. And I think that threatens the security of all of Europe to the point that countries that would hope to have been fairly neutral are not going to be so. I would think that making an enemy of the Swedes would be seen as a blunder.
Starting point is 00:49:05 It looks like a bad move on the chessboard for me. For who? There's got to be people in Putin's orbits that go and say, now look what you've done, you fucking idiot. Right. Because they have their money there. Well, no. The NATO alliance was conceivably the provocation for the invasion.
Starting point is 00:49:29 That Ukraine was going to join NATO. I think Sweden and Finland joining is... And then that takes us back to our interests, conspiring interests, and then all of a sudden it's like, okay, we can do this and stop this and also make money at the same time. Launder money. Yep. How was the games, by the way? I don't know. What did you do there?
Starting point is 00:50:02 I was coming out in the affiliate lounge. Uh-huh. know i mean what did you do there i was i didn't even see it lounge do that that's not in the you you that's not in the tent village that was like the like like one of those big buildings yeah i went i went to the i went to the affiliate lounge and spent a better part of a day there than that evening i went to the campground and hung out with uh dale king and craig how Howard and a bunch of other good folks. And I enjoyed that. It was like always. Did you get pelted with stones and eggs?
Starting point is 00:50:39 No, no. Were there protesters out front with tickets nothing no it's weird hey that's pretty that's pretty how did you end up in the affiliate lounge did did like don invite you or did you just walk over there how does that happen um i i when i told don, I was coming, uh, he and David gave us passes and full access. And I pretty much did the same thing that I've always done when I went to, I never sat there and watched people work out. Um,
Starting point is 00:51:18 what I did was talk to folks that, you know, were interested in talking to me. And so when you, when you stand somewhere and say hi to someone and then a person stands behind them and waits, and next thing you know you have a reception line and it takes a couple hours to chew through it, the thing to do is stand there and talk to those people that want to stand in line to say hi to you.
Starting point is 00:51:39 So you did the exact same thing you did three years ago at the game? And ten years ago. Yeah, nothing really changed. And you hung out with the affiliates. What is that like? I mean, I know you used to have a lot of meaningful conversations with the affiliates and sort of take away, oh, I know her. That's Grace, right? Yep.
Starting point is 00:52:00 And you would take away data points and things you would think about through the year and like what were some of the common themes? You know, like I just saw the physician there with the cardiologist with heart disease. I get a lot of a lot of, you know, I've got people that help me. And so I like I had Emily there and I had Maggie there and I had Daniel Chaffee there and Mike Butenob and Matt Holsworth. And I had probably reason to pass off, tell Matt the story. Let's get your number and look into this. Probably happened 15 or 20 times in that 10 or 15 times that that one day. And why that's significant is Matt is your money guy.
Starting point is 00:52:44 So you mean people like you were considering helping? There's always some of that. This is a problem that can be fixed. Hey. I went to Dottie Dumpling's Dowry and hung out with the lovely Miss rachel stanley the owner of that restaurant and bar great place great burgers great uh great bar um and i went over to a short stack that's the place that you got the lawyers to help them keep it the doors open yeah yeah we we we uh Yeah, yeah. We convinced the landlord of the cost-effectiveness of him repairing their air conditioner as opposed to not.
Starting point is 00:53:34 It became abundantly clear to him that it would be a huge financial mistake to not fix the air conditioner. Did that story come up with them when you saw them oh yeah buddy i gotta yeah i mean we i wanted to go there and say hi and we went and there was a line of crossfitters around the corner and i was like wow here we go and uh we got ushered in to the inside and set at the table so that's cool that was that was a little awkward too right here you can come to the front of the line because the only reason why this restaurant's here is because you got us lawyers. Permanent reservation. That's what that means. You have to shut your restaurant because the landlord,
Starting point is 00:54:13 the guy that owns the building doesn't want to replace your air conditioner. Funny how those people from 2020 suddenly vanished. Hey, what do you think about those people who I got some people like circling in my sphere now as the podcast grows, who are like, I forgive you seven for what you've done. And people are like, Hey, aren't, isn't that nice? And I'm like, forgive me for what I did. Forgive me for what I did. Fuck you. Like, do you, you must have those too. Oh, Greg made some missteps.
Starting point is 00:54:47 Oh, it was really – it was bad timing on his part. Oh, it was insensitive. But really, I can forgive him because of what he's done, like this CrossFit thing. Yeah. Like is that supposed to make you feel good? It's funny. I don't want to hate anyone, dude. But like I don't want to be like – I really don't want to hate anyone dude but like I don't want to be like
Starting point is 00:55:06 I really don't want to hate anyone I don't even want to hate Klaus Schwab but it's like the world changed I didn't keep up with it it created a climate where I was The world changed. I didn't keep up with it. It created a climate where I was compelled to leave.
Starting point is 00:55:37 And it's the best thing that ever happened to me. It's the best thing that ever happened to me. Hey, did anyone walk up to you and be like, hey, at this, the games and was like, hey, dude, I'm so sorry. I fucked up, dude. I thought you were a dou douche and i fucking cannot fucking believe how fucking cool you are anyone not one yeah i don't want i don't want to give names but someone did someone did that hope oh my god greg i thought that i really thought black lives mattered cared about black people like i'm so fucking sorry i didn't know that it was actually you who cared about just all people
Starting point is 00:56:10 i had i had a couple people um who i think their uh their public stance on me created in their mind some sense of disconnect with me where they actually felt they needed to introduce themselves. I'm not going to give you names, but it's, it's funny. I don't want a name. I just want to understand it a little more. Can you help me a little more? I promise I won't start picking and poking around for names or sex or how tall they are, how old they are. Like basically someone who you felt like, Hey, you knew they'd said bad shit about you. And now they came over to say hi. Yeah. And, and, and like, you know, I mean, it wasn't, you mentioned Pat Sher i mean it wasn't you mentioned pat sherwood he wasn't there i
Starting point is 00:57:09 haven't seen him or talked to him but imagine pat going hey greg it's pat sherwood yeah i didn't forget who you oh yeah yeah yeah okay now i'm understanding um now i'm understanding yeah like like that's all i could think about afterwards like wow you actually felt like like we it's a reboot we're just meeting again we actually have some history dude you know like i know you well i know your family and what you did and said but hi nice right and there's different degrees like when you're on fire there's people who like throw matches at you and then there's other people who run away and they're kind of both equally like hey dude there was a bucket of water there you could have just like thrown that on me i had i had someone in the campground get like four feet from me and make
Starting point is 00:58:02 eye contact before they could slip forward and shake my hand. Like, you know, like, like I might be a vicious dog. Right. Right. Approach them only from the left. Like you were going to pull out your hood and your swastika and just lose my mind at their site. Right. You know? And that. Did you feel like you had closure to that stuff? Like it was good? You know,
Starting point is 00:58:33 being handed $200 million and not having to worry about everyone anymore. There's some closure there, let me tell you. Right. A fuckwad lot of closure. Hey, another thing, though, is for me, what gives me closure, and I think for you, too, to put things in perspective,
Starting point is 00:58:56 you have a lot of kids. Yeah. And so, like, someone can be like, call you a fucking asshole a thousand times, and if you can look over and see your kids are healthy, there's no, it puts things in context and relative, and you don't care. And you also – you've also gone through some shit that's like some accidents that happened in your family to some of your loved ones, physical stuff that, thank God, they all survived and came out good the other end that put – that's happened in the last couple of years that have put things in relative and context. Like it doesn't matter how many times someone does bad shit to you,
Starting point is 00:59:26 as long as your kids are healthy or no one's diddled your kids or some shit. You know what I mean? I got to do a grueling, you know, it wasn't me. It was my daughter did a grueling month in a, in a PICU. And that same year thank you pediatric pediatric intensive care in a neurotrauma unit uh children's primary uh university of utah neurotrauma unit did a just watched it just a horrific month with an absolutely unbelievably wonderful outcome. And then the same year
Starting point is 01:00:08 got to do a harrowing 10 days in the NICU, neonatal intensive care unit in San Diego. So I had two kids in dire straits, it seemed, within the same year. That's some life-altering shit there. Little Robbie will get away with things forever. With all of us. With everyone. It gives her status that
Starting point is 01:00:38 she probably doesn't deserve. They flush a wallet down the toilet and you look at her and you're like, I love you, sweetheart. It's okay. deserve. They flush a wallet down the toilet and you look at her and you're like, I love you, sweetheart. It's okay. One guy had you write something on his arm and then he got it tattooed
Starting point is 01:00:54 on him. Did you see that? That wasn't the high point of the event. That was or was not? Was not. It showed up and it was like, my penmanship should not be enshrined in anywhere permanently, you know? But he did it and he showed back up the same night with the tape over it and it was now permanent.
Starting point is 01:01:23 And I don't know what he'll turn that into someday, but hopefully he'll think of something. Can I ask you a question? Like just, this is going to be deeply, make you deeply vulnerable. Was that dude, was that dude all there? You know, there was a waiter at Nobu in Scottsdale. Pivot, pivot. in scottsdale he comes up pivot pivot there's a there's a kid that worked the weighted tables at novu in scottsdale and he and he comes up and he's he just lets me know right away how there's no bigger fan of crossfit than he is and to prove it he shows me and on his forearm, he's got fucking Reebok's Delta tattooed on his fucking arm.
Starting point is 01:02:06 Oh, no. Yes. Oh, no. Yes. That was his dedication. My take on it was I actually had trouble articulating to my lawyers, to the people that manage the relationship, certainly to Reebok and its CEO, the problem with that fucking Delta. Do you remember this?
Starting point is 01:02:29 Yeah. That's proof of what it was I was worried about. This was going to be assumed to be a mark of CrossFit and one of which we had no control and when the relationship was
Starting point is 01:02:51 over you'd be using that delta and you'd use it elsewhere where we hadn't approved of you to put shit like dicks and it's exactly what they did because this moron to get it fucking tattooed on his arm thinking it was crossfit it's exactly and and i thought it was done deliberately too i thought it was a i thought it was a clever bit of work on the part of matt or tool but i had trouble getting uh uh the sociopath that was managing the reebok relationship at the time to to understand that I'm I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna but I'm gonna do this for you Enrique and not necessarily just for you but I'm gonna do it for everyone who's who's listening this is the election denier yeah so hold on hold
Starting point is 01:03:38 brace yourself I'm gonna I'm gonna get Greg to explain something to you here very gently and you're gonna if you listen very carefully, the thing is I don't think you're going to get it, Enrique, but I think a lot of people already know this and they forget this all the time. So the first thing you need to do is, Enrique, I want to tell you something before I get Greg going on this. You do not know what CrossFit is.
Starting point is 01:03:58 And then I'm going to tell you a story, and then Greg's going to run with it. Enrique writes, many of us would love to have Coach Glassman back in CrossFit, not as a political analyst, that's a no rep. Enrique, when Greg, CrossFit's always been political. When he started CrossFit, he said no carbohydrates. That was political, not because Greg made it political,
Starting point is 01:04:18 but because the world made it political. Greg had people squat below parallel, that was political. Not because Greg wanted it to be political. Greg had people squat below parallel. That was political. Not because Greg wanted it to be political. It's always been fucking political. He's fighting this whole thing is not as much a fitness movement as you think it is
Starting point is 01:04:35 as an activism to get us back to who we are as human beings with what we eat and how we fucking move. And you're confusing it. You're confusing it.'re confusing it it's it's a fight for our bodily autonomy you you you you you have you you're still you're you're so superficial you're so missing the fucking point of what's fucking going on here the radical nature of this fucking movement well what what would i come back for in his world does he think that
Starting point is 01:05:06 to improve fran to improve fran yeah do i need to weigh in on the push press again i mean the truth is is that all the work that's non-political has been done dude there were death threats against him because he said don't eat carbohydrates going back fucking 20 years. What's interesting at this point is not metabolic derangement, but the political reasons for it. And where I'm at now is I've gone upstream of the fitness. of the fitness. And I can explain to you how it is that the corruption, academic corruption that created the opportunity for a CrossFit has played out in the health space identically. It's the same thing. It's the same problem. And it's the epistemic debasement of science for all kinds of other interests, all of them financial.
Starting point is 01:06:09 This is a true story. There was a man in fucking New Zealand who, with Coca-Cola and other people, the American Beverage Association, shit like that, got together, and they were trying to form an organization that would make it so that if you wanted to teach CrossFit in the United States or anywhere in the world, you would have to pay a fee to this company. And this company would, it was licensure. They would oversee all the fucking CrossFit trainers.
Starting point is 01:06:35 That was like in motion. Greg loaded up the plane full of fucking 15 or 20 of his staff and we went to New Zealand to go find this fucking dude. And Greg fucking put this dude down. Here's what happened. Is a journalist this fellow who is the CEO of
Starting point is 01:06:55 the internet, what is it? The international consortium of the registry of exercise professionals. I see rep. Oh, good memory. And this guy from New Zealand on Network One, the only thing that's television top to bottom,
Starting point is 01:07:16 where we had 20 or 30 affiliates, he said that CrossFit had killed people in the United States. He said that CrossFit had killed people in the United States. And we went right to the journalist that reported this. And she said that he told her that. And we filed suit. And he said, I didn't say anything of the sort to her and then she went radio silent on us so we loaded up the plane and we went to new zealand we went to her work and we went to the newspaper and we found her in the cafeteria and sat down with her at the table and told her you
Starting point is 01:08:02 know come from a long ways to talk to you please Please don't just blow us off, but let's talk about this Betty guy. She says, okay, I'm going to come clean. He didn't say it. He sent it in an email and I'll give it to you. Boom, we got the email.
Starting point is 01:08:20 She gave it to us. We wouldn't have gotten that without going on a plane and showing up at the cafeteria at the newspaper. The problem in New Zealand law is that we had to show damages. The judge told us, you got this guy. He's fucked. He lied. You'll win this case, but New Zealand law requires you show damages. And we weren't really able to do that because no matter what you said about us, there's still the juggernaut moved forward regardless of the assail. And so he had to fess up to his lie and we got some paltry amount of money but what the beauty of the thing
Starting point is 01:09:06 is in the litigation what we found is that the whole concept had been formed by the keller corporation which is the agency of record for american beverage association coca-cola they're in atlanta and these you know these guys do proxy uh, legislation, PR campaigns. And so what we had was another SOTA-funded front in the fitness space that had an international follow. That Registry of Exercise Professionals was huge. Attacking CrossFit. All you had to do was pay money, too, to join the thing.
Starting point is 01:09:48 Beyond the registry. There were European, there were countries in the EU that had made that already a requirement for legal training to be in the registry. So, given the soda proxy cash for your certificate, you couldn't be a legal trainer.
Starting point is 01:10:12 When I left, there were two forces in fitness, really. Two forces. And it was Coca-Cola and CrossFit. That was it. They were exercises, medicine, and we were CrossFit. Enrique, you didn't know that that I know you didn't know that and if you listen on Tuesdays Greg will start coming on Tuesdays regularly you're gonna learn all sorts
Starting point is 01:10:32 of shit the whole thing is just a fucking war in the back end it's a fucking war dude like not that any of us want to do but that Greg had to do so that fucking they didn't come in and fucking take over.
Starting point is 01:10:47 Let me tell you something about guys like me and the cops I know. Someone asked me yesterday, how you doing? I said, I'm nine plus in a world that's doing sub four, you know? And I like it that way. What's that mean? You're living a life of nine when a lot of people are living a life of four? that's doing sub four, you know, and, and I like it that way. I actually,
Starting point is 01:11:07 you're living a life, a life of nine when people, a lot of people are living a life of four, just the world's, the world's in bad shape. And I think this is, you know, carrying fish flying over your house. I, uh, I don't, uh, I, I do well with problems and chaos and trouble and commotion I understand it I'm kind of comfortable there
Starting point is 01:11:32 yeah we both have a friend Jim Wadd Jim Dubb and I told him Jimmy what would you do if there weren't bad guys I can't imagine you finding a place in this world without fucking bad guys to stop. Jeff Martone, the same thing, right? There are people that,
Starting point is 01:11:50 there are people that live for bad guys. And if there weren't bad guys, they'd probably be one. Bill Maurer said the other day, no one has been canceled for being too woke isn't this interesting there's literally zero penalty for being insanely woke yeah it's he's uh that's true he's he's red pilling hard you know yeah yeah it's it's uh and we get in it very publicly too issue by issue issue by issue that's kind of how it unfolds
Starting point is 01:12:30 we're seeing the same thing about RFK wait till they come to see that the left and socialists and socialism has a proclivity in the devaluing of the individual and individual rights
Starting point is 01:12:51 and taking the collectivist mindset that these schemes for this schema of this nature end up stacking bodies like cordwood. You want to have a scenario where you're using backhoes to bury people. Socialism is the key to that. That's how you do it. That's how you do it. That's how you get there. And people can argue all day long that the National Socialist Party wasn't socialist, and you can laugh about that.
Starting point is 01:13:36 But I think that Orwell gave us all the intellectual tools you need to recognize this. And we didn't take it seriously enough. And so we have crazy things like gender affirming health care. I mean, that sounds like it came right out of Animal Farm. I know. It's actually sexual mutilation of minors. I know that's it's actually a sexual mutilation of minors.
Starting point is 01:14:11 The clitoral optimizing in the Middle East is also a gender affirming healthcare, right? It's savagery. Daniel Farrell. Does it bother Glassman to be surrounded by people who canceled him? Joe Westerlin responds for you. Daniel Gregg is perhaps the most forgiving person you will ever meet. Cancel. It is, if you are not a,
Starting point is 01:14:34 I don't know if forgiving is the right word. You've maybe transcended forgiving. He accepts people for, we have a friend who um oh his wife's yelling at him for having his text messages on some of you are going to love that those of you complain about in the comments you can thank maggie send maggie a dm thank you maggie for straining your husband um shut down messages there's this friend that there's a dear friend that both Greg and I have that people have complained about who is
Starting point is 01:15:08 constantly lying just constantly constantly and I and I really like the dude and Greg really likes the dude but I struggled with it too until Greg until Greg just fucking says like explained it to me one day like hey dude like that's just part of his that's just a feature of his like once I was able
Starting point is 01:15:24 to fucking accept that I was was like, Oh, okay. I get it. Like, he's not a bad dude. Fucking doesn't just tell the truth a lot. You get joy from these, from the margins of where you are. Like, I wonder if this is true or not. That's how I feel about the flat earth guy. Like I'm, I'm, I'm laughing my ass off and it's a great story. I wonder if this is true or not. That's how I feel about the flat earth guy.
Starting point is 01:15:49 I'm laughing my ass off, and it's a great story, but it could also be not true. It could be true, but it is good. It's still a good story. In the South, many of your very best storytellers are fucking inveterate liars. Mike, Pool Boy, Olivas. Greg was the biggest supporter of black athletes during his ownership. The ding-dongs out there never realized there were more black athletes at the games little gray going the company oh i mean dude hey i tell you what man
Starting point is 01:16:29 i like i'm proud of 2019 and what we had at the games there and uh dude we had the brownest gayest office in fucking california and and that that's at scotts valley. And what's so cool is that we made it, for the first time, a truly global event. And we had people there from nearly every country. And it kind of went unnoticed, which was fascinating. But I met some incredible people there, many of whom had no chance of going to the games until we brought a representative of each country. And many of these people were very well known
Starting point is 01:17:19 to their countrymen for other achievements. One was a FIFA Hall of famer who was also just happened to be the best crossfitter even though he was 10 years since his last soccer and uh and yet it didn't upset the uh frazier uh froning duo either you know you have to ask yourself, why did we have the games? And I had the games to show to everyone's satisfaction who the fittest person in the world was. And I think we did so in a way that you could support mathematically, clearly. My evidence for that is that I could tell you who was going to place and where after the open. And so everything in between was somewhat anticlimactic, and then it got borne out prominently at the games.
Starting point is 01:18:13 And the rest is hot dogs and hamburgers and friendship. And to actually have people of every stripe and for someone to be able to say that they were the fittest person in Sudan, Nigeria, or Italy that wouldn't have been there otherwise, there was an enormous opportunity being created there. And, you know, COVID and the structure afterwards closed the door on all of that. And that, to to me is amazing amazing
Starting point is 01:18:49 it sure as hell seems like a way to stimulate fucking CrossFit in every single fucking country on planet earth to do that I mean I can't think of a better way all of a sudden so let's say this let me just get this out there real quick to sponsor the games for the Italian that came,
Starting point is 01:19:07 and it was the way I was going to get Molson to sponsor the Australian that came. Right. And I think it was going to work. Let me throw this out there. There's 189 countries on planet Earth, and if you crown the national champion in all of them and give them the kudos of coming to the games and five newspapers doing in each country does an article on them minimum five right fuck it i'm gonna say 10 so that's 10 newspapers times 189 that's 1089
Starting point is 01:19:37 articles worldwide just immediately free publicity for all the crossfit gyms around planet earth it's the exact same thing whether you like it or not. You get this thing on fucking ESPN, and all of a sudden it's on a bar on a TV set in Kenya. Yeah, it seemed like, in hindsight, it's a fucking brilliant move to bring someone from every single fucking country as a way to inject interest in the media in those local countries. I mean, it's just so obvious.
Starting point is 01:20:04 We did a dinner for the national champions. And early in the event, but it was after that mass elimination round, most of the people that came from around the world were done. They knew after the first heat that they weren't going to go further. And the amount of community that I felt in that room, I could only find in the reception line at the games that people came to talk to me and tell me things like, what goes on in my box has nothing to do with these games.
Starting point is 01:20:58 And that, by the way, the reception line at the games and the number of people that told me that they were 10 year affiliates and that good to see you again, coach, and that what's happening here this week has no bearing or resemblance to anything that we do in my box was so annoying to me that we held the uh the 10-year gathering at whistler so i could communicate to the affiliates the extent to which i knew that to be a fact and it bothered me that they would think that that anyone would think that i wouldn't know that. Because remember I was unlike most, if not all of the current leadership, I ran a CrossFit gym and did so for 20 years and a very successful CrossFit gym. And so I had that perspective.
Starting point is 01:21:44 That moved to many locations and many iterations. Tank Reeves, wow, whatever happened to Gorbachev? I think he's dead. And the promise of not moving NATO one inch closer than East Germany. Oh, you mean Reagan promised him that? Gorbachev ended up at Stanford at the Hoover Institute the uh at stanford at the hoover institute and uh he did yeah yeah he's a professor there um eric weiss had a question i i lost it but i'm going to summarize it for you why did you go to the games i i was thinking about that myself too i was thinking is he going
Starting point is 01:22:24 like obviously it's your baby so maybe you wanted to visit games? I was thinking about that myself too. I was thinking, is he going, like, obviously it's your baby, so maybe you wanted to visit it. Maybe you wanted some closure. Maybe you wanted some proof. Like, because I think, why did I go to the games this year too? And I got some stuff from there that I didn't expect that was really good. Like, oh, shit. I actually did believe in the boogeyman a little.
Starting point is 01:22:45 Like, I was, and there was no boogeyman, shit. I actually did believe in the boogeyman a little. And there was no boogeyman, obviously. Did you know why you went there? Why aren't you on your sailboat somewhere right now? Why didn't you use that week to go on your sailboat? Why go to the CrossFit Games? I had a lot of invites. And they were coming from the likes of Dale King and Craig Howard. Cool dudes.
Starting point is 01:23:10 And others. And Daniel Chaffee and Nat Diaz. I have a genuine friendship with many of the country managers. Someone had said something about me not paying attention to country managers, unaware of the fact that I had them out to Santa Barbara and put them up in an Airbnb with an ocean view and had them over to my house and went and had dinner with them and watched them sit around in their underwear yelling at the TV set watching soccer. It's a real friendship.
Starting point is 01:23:58 And when you got people that are inviting you regularly, I mean, in the past, since I've left, I've had weekly contact with folks like Natalie and Daniel and Mateo and He Cardino. They're like, we want to see you. Come show up. I said, okay, I'll come
Starting point is 01:24:20 around. And then I let Don know I was going to show up because it was in the campground. I said, well, I don't have a space. And then I let, I let Don know I was going to show up. Cause it was in the, in the campground. And I said, well, I'm not, I don't have a space. And Dale said that, that he and friends had taken every spot in the campground. And so it was theirs. And I don't, you know, I didn't feel like I needed an invite to go sit with friends and I wasn't sure why I was doing it. And you told me I was going to be fucking miserable.
Starting point is 01:24:46 And I, I understood that because I've, I've not, I don't enjoy the, I don't, you know, but it's just something you do. It's a, it felt, it felt, I felt obliged to people that I really care about to be there for. And I got mobbed by people to tell me that it was important that I really care about to be there for. And I got mobbed by people to tell me that it was important that I was there and that they felt like they owed me a lot. And I got to tell them that you're the embodiment of the manifestation of my life's work,
Starting point is 01:25:15 that what you've done, the miracles that are occurring in your gym to people I've never met is the entirety of the potency of what I've done with my life. And so thank you. You know, it's a two-way street. And it's an easy thing to do. And so I do it, you know.
Starting point is 01:25:38 We're about to go to Europe and I've got the same thing happening. I'm not, I can't go to italy without seeing friends there and i'm gonna be in switzerland and so we're looking at crossfit friends crossfit friends yeah right yeah yeah and you know what in the end they're they're friends and they would be friends you know like just said hi. I took my kids, my wife, and Maggie's folks, and we went to Joe and
Starting point is 01:26:13 Libby's wedding. I know, that's crazy. And we weren't there because of CrossFit. I didn't even go to Matt's wedding. It was right down the street. Literally. I mean, I think that's, I think that's the, the reality of genuine friendships is that they, you know,
Starting point is 01:26:35 where'd you meet this guy when we both worked at Lockheed, you know, we don't anymore and haven't for a long time, but that's where we met. And I have, I have a lot of that. There's a lot of people that I met through CrossFit that in my post-CrossFit world, they're still friends. So you should know Greg got married 11 miles away. I didn't go to his wedding either. I'm in good company then. That actually makes me feel a lot better.
Starting point is 01:27:01 Manny C. Serrano. Manny, I'm coming to Newport. Maybe we can grab a drink again. I was there in 2019. It was an amazing idea. So happy to see Ecuador. Ecuador. At the CrossFit Games.
Starting point is 01:27:16 I think there's time to bring up something that we have four minutes. This is something you and I talked about on the phone a couple days ago. Simone Biles. She's the keynote speaker at a wellness convention. And right when I – the wellness convention is in like Daukar or something, which ironically – this is on a side note. I think it's where Danny Spiegel – is that where she went for her women's convention? Empowerment, women's empowerment? But look at – open that up and blow it up
Starting point is 01:27:45 and read the very first line. So they're having Simone Biles there. And I open this up and I cannot, in the very first line you read, make that a little bigger, look at this. Joining together to shape the future. The global wellness summit is at the heart of a multi-trillion dollar global wellness economy
Starting point is 01:28:08 so you think she's going there because she like i was wondering why you sent this to me and i opened it up and i knew right away i'm like oh shit it's it's a facade like they care and they're gonna help people with their mental health but then the opening line just betrays everything, right? I didn't open it. It's crazy. It was one of those when I stopped reading. When I saw that she was keynoting this thing. Go back to her picture, Sousa, please.
Starting point is 01:28:42 Where is it? Back to her picture, Susan, please. Where is it? Her irrelevance to health care and wellness is so profound that my immediate assumption is that it's a distraction from the sponsors, you the assumption is that it's a distraction from the sponsors for intended distraction created by the sponsors of this thing because here's the thing we have to talk about global wellness but you better not say a fucking thing about sugar and so how are we going to do that well we need we need magicians and you know we need we need Taylor Swift and Simone Biles and stuff like that. We need, it's a distraction, a wonderful distraction.
Starting point is 01:29:32 Such a talented young lady. And she couldn't be, she's as important to wellness as, I said, Bowtie's ties are to mathematics was a line I used recently. Say that again. She's as relevant to wellness as bow ties are to mathematics. Right, right. Someone could have gotten up instead of her and said something important about health or wellness. gotten up instead of her and said something important about health or wellness meaning the bow tie makes you look smart like you know what you're doing but doesn't mean shit remember the nephrology uh thing we went to event we went to
Starting point is 01:30:18 it's in florida no it was in uh in san diego oh oh at the convention center yeah yeah wow that was crazy and there were like dudes out front smoking and drinking coke with like doctor names and shit on the like doctor so-and-so mrs fields had an exhibit there the cookie people yes yes, yes, yes. This is crazy. It may have been their key sponsor. Yeah, and buses were dropping off, and the nephrologist wrapped by the DaVita
Starting point is 01:30:54 and the dialysis industry was there in full force. Hey, thanks for having me on, man. You're welcome I want to one more thing you remember there was a point I don't think it's true anymore where Warren Buffett was the largest shareholder of Coca-Cola and of DeVita
Starting point is 01:31:15 the dialysis centers and it was basically just like this monopoly when William Randolph Hearst was the largest consumer of paper because he was a publishing magnet publishing so many magazines and also the largest consumer of paper because he was a publishing magnet, publishing so many magazines, and also the largest owner of Forrest in the United States. It's like, holy shit. Yeah, and I don't see a conspiracy there,
Starting point is 01:31:35 but it's kind of like hedging, right? Warren Buffett had his first Coca-Cola when he was just a kid, and he's like, this is the most amazing liquid on earth and so he ends up uh that in cinnabon right i mean he's he's a simple guy and uh you could i understand how you could love coca-cola and think that it's so terrific that it's a good investment. It has been for a lot of people. We're not going to get anywhere saying that it doesn't taste good.
Starting point is 01:32:11 That's, I think, a provable lie. And I think you could also see the advantages to investing in dialysis. Remember when I got that dialysis center app? You just turn it on and you find out where there's a dialysis. Remember when I got that dialysis center app and you just plug, turn it on and you find out where there's a, where there's a dialysis center. And it turned out that CrossFit gyms in the U S and dialysis centers in numbers were neck and neck competing. I remember that. That was when we were at like 7,500. Yeah. And there was like, there was like 7,500, uh, U S gym CrossFit gyms and there's 7,500 dialysis centers.
Starting point is 01:32:46 Then we started looking for where is there a CrossFit gym in a mall with a dialysis center? And indeed, there are more than a few. But like there's two dialysis centers at LAX. But the app's a trip. You could set it to ding when you drive by one. You just drive down through LA, the streets of LA, and you get a ding every couple of minutes. I don't think you have to be...
Starting point is 01:33:15 I see this conspiracy of interest concept again. Hey, thank you. Thank you. Yep. I'll talk to you soon. Thank you. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:33:31 We'll see you soon. See you next week. Bye. Bye. Greg Glassman. These are becoming my favorite shows. I have to study for them you have meaningful contribution i literally have to study and we probably need to put them about four hours later in the day imagine um spending like just like 20 years on something
Starting point is 01:34:02 the week well let me go back a little the weird thing about crossfit is like you can't buy what crossfit is right because it's it's built and like like no matter how much money you have you can't buy this community whatever it is this group of people i don't know what you call it there's this movement so he spends 20 years making it and and then and then someone does try to buy it he sells it excuse me it's just a trip so now and it's alive and it's big right it's like kind of alive it's just a trip. So now, and it's alive and it's big, right? It's like kind of alive. It's as close as you can get to being alive. And so now he's over there looking at it.
Starting point is 01:34:51 And he, and he, and he, and it's like, but it's not his anymore. It's weird. I also think there's two different camps in CrossFit. What do you mean?
Starting point is 01:35:01 Like two different schools of thought. There's the school of thought of like the methodology, which is saving lives and people are going after that portion of it. So that to me is the coach that looks at somebody and goes, Oh, they have tight ankles. So that's why they're, you know, they have tight ankles and their stance is narrow. So that's why they're not able to get all the way down into their squad.
Starting point is 01:35:23 Or that's why it doesn't, we need to go ahead and look at those and solve those problems. And then it's going to better the range of motion. Right. And then there's the CrossFit games camp that are in it for the athlete and they call it a sport and they look at somebody and they say, well, that's a no rep.

Starting point is 01:36:10 Please play responsibly. You understand me with that? Yeah. So they're watching the same exact person squat, but one of them is saying, hold on, there's some mobility issues. We could fix that. Yeah, snatch is important for
Starting point is 01:36:25 people that are 60 but they probably won't pass by a pvc pipe or a 15 pound bar because the neurological connections the balance the accuracy the speed that they're going to develop from that is unmatched in any other movement that they're going to do and then there's another one that's like they got to do a squat snatch they're not well it's so funny you're saying that i want to show you this video that most people don't know which camp they're in. Hey, and not only that, there's the fact that, like, hey, CrossFit is what it is now, and, like, they don't realize the importance of, like, that it's a threat to the status quo. Like that Ethan Noriega guy or whatever his name is, that guy has fucking no clue what CrossFit is.
Starting point is 01:37:06 By the way, I'll tell you there's two different camps there's people who know how to think and then there's people who are being thought if you think you are your thoughts you're being thought you don't know how to think it and that's okay most people don't ever get there but you gotta try to think it's a great it's a little scary but once you can start thinking like the people who like the um the the flat earth show it's because they're impressed by the thinking it's like um it's it's like once you enjoy watching humans move like you can enjoy anything you can enjoy watching babies walk you enjoy watching people juggle you enjoy people like and once you start to you have the ability doing so thinking like that. You just want to see people think.
Starting point is 01:37:52 And if you if you've never thought you don't even know what I'm saying, like you're it sounds like I'm talking about aliens and you don't even you don't even you don't know what you don't know if you've never thought once you're like i want to show you this video this video fucked me up that hillar made in a really really subtle way and it touches exactly what you're saying yeah it just go ahead quick point on that it is the best gyms understand the difference and know how to toggle back and forth oh interesting so so here's annie thor's daughter with two no reps but i'm fucking but but if i'm in the gym i give her these but just with like all day every day and so when i see this i'm torn i mean i give her a cue like i see my wife squat like this sometimes when she first starts well here she's in a competition and you just said she's in the gym. Unless there's a local competition going on, she's not in a competition.
Starting point is 01:38:50 Who? This thing you just said, because you said here it's a no rep, but if she was in the gym, I'd give her them. Yeah. So that's the part that people can't switch. She's in the gym. Yeah. You give her your cues to move better as opposed to in a competition.
Starting point is 01:39:04 What I'm saying is if my wife had if my wife had to do 20 of these I wouldn't no rep her for these first two but I would cue her hey fix your shit but these are still fucking great squats they're just she could fix she could work on them so look can you see this yeah okay watch this
Starting point is 01:39:20 so she goes down here so she gets the bag up I forget how many she has to do 20 or 30 of these right like i like it she's trying to keep her heels down that one's still no good and then right here she fixes it right she gets into it yeah and i'm just like fuck like but you and you could go ahead no i was gonna say you see what, what went wrong in those first one, right? It was pushed forward. She, her knees came forward first. She didn't send her hips back.
Starting point is 01:39:49 Okay. I don't know. And that's, that's why she missed that. Right. And so if you were watching somebody who is new in the gym, you would look at them and you wouldn't say that's a no rep. She didn't meet the standard. You would say, Hey, Annie, on this next one, stand taller.
Starting point is 01:40:02 Give yourself a quick little breath. Now think about sitting back into your heels, but but in competition there's no way she's like you know it's a completely different animal she she she missed depth because of those things you said but she reached maximum death for that bad positioning right do you get what i yes and because of that like if because of that it it pains me to be yeah, I get stuck because I'm not – I know she's still getting stimulus there. It's kind of like if a guy makes an incredible catch but only one foot's inbounds and you're like, fuck, in the NFL, right? Right, right. But I guess – but it's like, fuck, dude.
Starting point is 01:40:42 That was an incredible fucking catch. Great focus. Yeah. But no one's ever going to remember or see it because – Right. It just happened just to not get your foot down in time, the other foot down in time, right? Seve, if you – Sevan, if you want to get canceled, talk about Annie peeing during events. That will enrage some people in space for sure.
Starting point is 01:40:59 She's peeing. Does she pee there? Yeah, and it's not just Annie. That happens – that's common. That's common. she pee there yeah and it's not just danny that that happens that that's common that's common and uh talking with some of the medical staff it's common enough to where they you know even say i wonder if there'd be a crossfit diaper for some of these competitions there was there's one game that fisa goffey just like was just on the show just talking about it like yeah i was just
Starting point is 01:41:20 peeing all over the place during the games i didn't know annie did that too i know jason kalipa and luke luke parker lucas parker the redheaded guy i remember twice uh interviewing them after events um in carson and both of them were lying there and i'm like hey what's up what's going on they're like i'm peeing involuntarily i mean it even happens to boys different probably different mechanism jy barbell has 1500 followers oh did you know what we did to him last night no i wonder if he's going to be pissed at this i'm going to show you so last night i had hillar on i wanted to check in with hillar and we we oh shit and hillar was like hey we were talking about buying instagram followers yeah and we're wondering like if it's possible and so last night john young's account had like
Starting point is 01:42:12 165 followers and hillar bottom 1200 followers and look there they are this morning yeah they're just it's bots well that's what i was just saying about the person who followed me with a million plus followers but no comments no interaction no engagement i don't know shit you just bought them it's i think it's five it's it's five grand to buy it's a hundred no it's a hundred dollars to buy 20 000 followers so it's a thousand dollars to buy 200 000 no sorry what did i say five 500 for twenty thousand yep so if ten times that no wait what the fuck am i saying no it's a hundred dollars to buy twenty thousand so times that by ten two hundred thousand followers for a thousand bucks so for five thousand bucks i could get a million followers yeah until instagram does a clean out of bots and and they all disappear
Starting point is 01:43:04 because at some point they go through like cleansing those out right i mean at least i Instagram does a clean out of bots and they all disappear. Because at some point they go through like cleansing those out, right? I mean, at least I think they used to. I don't know if it's still a thing. I want to get a I want to start another account. God, can we get a sponsor to pay for this? I want to get another account, make it the 7
Starting point is 01:43:20 podcast account, buy the blue checkmark and buy a million followers for it. So people know we fake followers. yeah just and just run with it just fight but dude we could get better guests better is not the right word big more you're gonna just look into it and be like no dude they're not no dude they're not they're not at all dude they're not at all, dude. They're not at all going to look into it.
Starting point is 01:43:51 That's amazing that you guys bought that. I was watching it in the thread. Phillip Kelly, Hiller bought $2,500, I thought. I think you're right. That's what I'm saying. Someone will get cleaned out. Just like right away? Yeah, I remember what they were saying when Elon was going to take over Twitter.
Starting point is 01:44:10 He was like, I'm going to try to red Twitter as much bots as we possibly can and it was supposedly going to drop it by some significant percentage of users because they weren't actually real users. They were just bots. And did he do that? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:44:27 I'm going to call – I should put people's phone numbers into this phone. Yeah, like save your go-tos. Yeah, let me see. Let me see. Hey, when do I get to call Laura Horvat again? October. Okay, October. That's good. Before Rogue, maybe.

The thing is is is if you guys give me five thousand dollars i'll probably like buy a drone or something so i need like a sponsor just to like give the money
Starting point is 01:45:53 to suza and then we just do it you know what i mean like i'll buy like i'll buy a new monitor for my desk or something if you give me the money hey do you think if we did that we have a million followers we buy the blue check mark right and then we grab some random guests that's like a you know like a high profile guest yeah and then you think you bring them on here and you tell the story do you think that they would feel like pissed off like we duped him somehow i don't think so because it's still a good show no definitely but like just like so you we went on our first date and you lied about the house you're in and you had a nicer car but you still were a good dude once after we went on the date but the whole shit you did to first drag me in was a facade but i had a great time on the date am i still pissed off or am i just cool with it now hey is there anyone who just out there who
Starting point is 01:46:42 does that who admits they have a fake account i mean it's so our shtick just to lean into shit yeah i think a blue check mark is like 19 a month or something or nine dollars wow 19 a month so funny now because before you used to see like the blue check mark and you'd be like oh and you'd like click it look at who they were and you'd see they have a following or like whatever and now you're just like and they have like 200 followers they're like oh okay this means nothing now hey hello hey hi how you doing i'm great david taylor i've been listening to your program a long time oh good so you're not you're cool dude're not going to be hostile? Might be hostile. No.
Starting point is 01:47:26 I wanted to back up to something you were talking about a few minutes ago. About Hiller's video. Oh, yeah. With the squad depth. Yeah. We used to talk about this, a similar type of thing in landscape painting or figure painting when I was in college. We'd do our painting. We'd put it up for,
Starting point is 01:47:46 like, to critique in front of the class. And the instructor would look at it and go, wow, you know, that leg, you really painted the hell out of it. You can see the blood. It's proportion great. Unfortunately, it's in the wrong spot. And you'd be like, no, no, but I painted it. It looks great. I said, yeah, but it doesn't look the way it's supposed to. You got to scrape it off. You got to redo it. Like it doesn't match the natural anatomy. It doesn't match the natural anatomy of a human or something.
Starting point is 01:48:14 Like that's not where legs are. Right, right. And I get the purpose of that particular assignment was to paint it so it matches. So it's not some sort of cubism or, you the premise is to do it so it so it looks right but that's what that made me think about uh where what matt and you were bringing up about the video right okay okay yeah look at that connections connections that's your brain work that's one of the things that's one of the things i like about your program is the connections you make that seem so obscure and that you have to think in order to make those analogous connections
Starting point is 01:48:54 because that's what gives you first, second, third level matches. And that just creates depth and makes you ask that why question. And that's what I appreciate about your program and the people you have on here. Thank you. It makes life fun, too. Right. Life is so fucking fun. Once you can think life's a blast. All right. All right. I'll let you guys go. OK, cool. Thanks for calling. Hey, are you a foreigner? He gone. Oh, you think he's a foreigner no he had some sort of weird uh affect in his voice might have just been nervous you know many people like message me that are like i wanted to call in and talk about this but i didn't because
Starting point is 01:49:38 i got nervous or people that'll call in and then message and then be like oh my gosh i i didn't hardly knew what i was saying i got nervous nervous yeah dude ignore the people in the comments when you called it like say hang up and shit those people like fuck those people it's pretty much everybody and i think at this point it's just a bit as part of this show oh right like 1999 or something yeah don't don't worry about the people make fun of your comments it I like you. Don't ignore them. If you're being bad guests, I'll probably tell you. I'll just hang up on you. I'll be like, okay, we're done.

I'm about to call and hang up on Zevon. I'll have your phone number then. Okay. I'll call you back every show.

I think there's gold, silver, and white now. Yeah. I guess. I haven't seen those other color ones. I play tennis with that on.

Do you know who he's talking? Do you know who it is or do you have no clue? Got no clue. Oh, okay. Okay, cool. That's besides the point. I wanted to call in earlier when Greg was on,
Starting point is 01:51:55 but I didn't really want to put him on the spot. Kind of a random question. Do you guys think he'll ever go back and do the old CrossFit seminars? What do you mean? Oh, you mean like him go and like for two days he teach all the L1s and the entire L1 himself? Yeah, either that or just like when he used to do like the throwback lecture behind CrossFit and all that. When he used to do what? He used to do like the science like behind crossfit lectures and everybody would sit
Starting point is 01:52:26 there and like learn a shit ton i don't know i'm not sure what you're talking i don't remember that but i did dude he he i don't know that's that's interesting i know i don't think he will no i don't think he will dude call him and put him on the spot he's cool as shit he'll he he's like so fucking relaxed ask him anything yeah all right cool next time he's on maybe next week i'll give him a call yeah would you go to that to hear him do that oh 100 man he's a genius hey are you i know isn't it great that he's a genius it's so fun listening to him talk that's why i wish like i feel bad for that guy enrique it's like dude you're like caught up in your own shit
Starting point is 01:53:05 like just listen he's gonna tell you're gonna get to pick some fucking nuggets of gold out of there quit getting hung up on shit like he's like i don't want to hear his politics or or like the election wasn't stolen like dude now you're just making shit up like you're missing the you're missing the genius of what he's saying yeah for sure. I did my L2 this weekend and I was sitting there listening to it and it was just reminding me of the old videos when he used to give his lectures and I thought it would be awesome just to
Starting point is 01:53:33 hear it straight from him. Hey, how was your L2? Oh, it was awesome, man. I did it at Mako Athletics here in Pensacola, Florida. Oh, you're not in Washington? Oh, no. The phone number's from Washington. Okay. Yeah, so I did the L2 over the weekend, and I've been coaching for five years, doing CrossFit for 10.
Starting point is 01:53:58 But it just really opens your eyes of how you can be a better coach. eyes of like how you can be a better coach and going back to the basics really of just like doing the progressions and the movements and you know caring more about your athletes um just getting like more involved in every single person rather than just like focusing on the ones that need the most help which was the uh hardest for you to get down when you would do the breakout groups as far as the coaching uh verbal visual or tactile from the feedback i got from the the l2 staff yeah uh it was the visual cues so just like being being in a better position for them to see me like demoing it um as well as just like going through the progressions with them instead of just being like, all right, here's the push trick.
Starting point is 01:54:46 And what's really hard for me also is like, like not talking while I demo it. So like, because people are just focusing on what you're saying rather than, you know, you actually doing the movement. So it's kind of like confusing in their brains, but. Hey, was there anybody who, cause that's very typical that that's the hardest one for everybody
Starting point is 01:55:05 to do. Was there anybody who was really, it is, it is, that's true. What you just said? Yeah. Because out of those three types of, of coaching, they'll do a breakout group. They'll tell AJ like, okay, you're going to teach push press and you could only use visual. So you can't talk, you can't touch them. Oh, and so that usually once you like narrow it down and isolate it to just that that's tough was there anybody that was really exceptional at it in your breakout group aj that you remember no it really just seemed like everybody had to work on something right that's what's cool about the course is like no matter how long you've been coaching or how good of a coach you think you are like you can always be better yeah it was funny because that was one of the ones that i that i felt that i was pretty good at and instantly one of the uh seminar people
Starting point is 01:55:49 stopped and says do you have a deaf member at your gym and i said i do and they go okay you've had a lot of practice with this and that was wow wow with it was because um one of our my long-term members reyes is is deaf he actually works for the the School of Deaf in Fremont as well. Could we have a deaf person on the podcast? Yes. We have to get a translator involved. This was the same gentleman that I was talking about that had the first day at his L1
Starting point is 01:56:16 had a translator who did CrossFit, and it was an awesome experience. Second day, he had a translator that did not do CrossFit, and the person freaked out mid-lecture and just left and left him and i would try this was a couple years back and then i tried to work with crossfit to see if they would allow him to come back and maybe get that second day or do more in the test because he missed he basically missed 50 of it due to the fact that then he didn't have a translator in that and you know how it is That L2 even moves really quickly. So imagine not
Starting point is 01:56:46 being able to hear anything through that and trying to keep up with that. Yeah, for sure. AJ, does your last name start with a B? It does. I do know you from the DMs. I rescind my last call. He knows your dick pics.
Starting point is 01:57:02 Yeah, I recognize that dick pic anywhere. Hey, dude, thanks for for calling you have my number awesome alright I'll talk to you guys later thanks brother hey I did remember him two things
Starting point is 01:57:20 yep you wanna hear about I wanna piggyback off your level two shit or – Do you want to know why people don't like to play sports with me? You get to tell me which story. I feel like we should have to piggyback off the first one because it's relevant, but I'm way more curious about why people don't want to play sports with you. Okay. I'll tell you why people don't want to play sports with me next hey i think i know
Starting point is 01:57:47 that if crossfit gave me twenty thousand dollars i know if they gave me twenty thousand dollars to go to a seminar for a weekend and take my three cameras there and just let me talk to the all the people there for two days like you, like when they're on their breaks, not interfere with the class at all. Right. Then I could keep $10,000 for myself. You know what I mean? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:58:13 And then I could give $10,000 to, I don't know, Patrick Rios or someone. Yeah. To give the footage because I don't have time to edit that shit. Right, post-production. I'm fucking around with my own shit. Yeah. That they would – like it would be the best and they and they had me do that once a month it would it would just change the whole fucking entire trajectory of the fucking company like i like i know that like i know that and so the only pushback you could have is he's wrong or we're stupid.
Starting point is 01:58:58 Dude, it's such a – dude, they should give me $50,000 a weekend to do that. I'll keep $40,000 and I'll give $10,000 to an editor. Hey, by the way, the last time I told this story, it was $10,000. There's no fucking way I do it for $10,000 now. Do you know what I mean? Even if it was in Santa Cruz, so it was super convenient for me to go up the street? No. That's a bummer.
Starting point is 01:59:20 No. Because I would have liked to see it done for $10,000. No. Because then I have to come home and edit that shit and i'm not fucking doing that and my sponsors are the the the i don't want to call them sponsors the people who are supporting this podcast are giving me money now and it's like i'm like i i mean i live life on the edge you know like i live like close to fly the plane low but i'm not giving up time for my kids to do that anymore like i like
Starting point is 01:59:45 i don't need i don't yeah and dude and soon it's gonna be it's gonna be fifty thousand dollars i mean it's like two years away for like hey then it's gonna be like hey i won't do it at all and i this is gonna sound even more fucking dickheady but uh susan but i don't think there's someone else who can do it unless they were to tag along with me for like a year and I could teach them like me. Yeah. Yeah. Tag along. Hey, you got to ask him all sorts of weird questions. You got to go up to the lady with the fucking tracheotomy in the front row and be like, so why are you here? And like, fucking like talk to her. Totally. Um, if you,
Starting point is 02:00:19 why, and I'm friends with Dave and Nicole and Don, I mean, I'm acquaintances with Don. I'm friends with Dave nicole why wouldn't they just have me do that if you're somebody who's just looking to get in shape right and you search out you want to do something where it's a group class because you want to be around other people and you don't want to have to worry about your own routine so you just want to show up and go through the thing. And you're looking at gyms and you see F45, Orange Theory, and then your local CrossFit gym. Out of those three, what would be the biggest differentiator that CrossFit has that would separate them from the other two? And you can't say community because that doesn't mean shit to anybody who's on the outside of it. And all those other gyms have their relevant community.
Starting point is 02:01:03 Okay. Instruction, nutrition, community, crazy experience, years and years of what we call like R&D, what's worked, what hasn't worked, or just a constant refinement of the coaching. Yeah, so I would say the education and the coaching and it's, and it's holistic as a motherfucker. You have the people, you have the nutrition, you have the movement. Right. And I think the biggest differentiator is the L one and the things that, that, you know, the punch that that packs when you go to that course and how it's open for not even people that are looking to coach, but just to looking to advance their knowledge of the CrossFit methodology. And so I think giving to your point,
Starting point is 02:01:49 if the more and more and more and more and more CrossFit can highlight the L1, but then humanize it by telling the stories of the people that are in those classes, which is what you just said, that's a huge differentiator that F45 and Orange Theory, they can't tap into it because they don't have those courses although the truth is i could do it for them but i well yeah i could go to their gym and do something similar for them uh would you make 10 000 version different than 20 000 no not at all here's the whole thing it comes down to i i would just go there because i just love doing it
Starting point is 02:02:21 and i would walk into i would take three cameras on three gimbals and i'd walk into an L1 and I would just film all the lectures and every free second that they had when they went through different movements, I would interview people. Why are you here? How long have you been doing CrossFit? What's your favorite takeaway? And I would fucking get B-roll every single person there and I would get beautiful questions with all of them. and dude and it would fucking just move the needle if you if you just had me do that once a month for fucking three years you would see would sell so many fucking l1s and so many fucking affiliates it would be this this this triple effect there'd be just just layering and layering and it would be fucking nuts i mean it's what i'm made to do that it's i can't believe it no there wouldn't be a difference just the only thing is is the ten thousand dollar version is i shoot it and i guess i could give them the footage and they could edit it the twenty thousand version is i give them the final the final edits yeah but eventually i'm not gonna fucking like it's hard for me to leave my house i'm so glad to be home holy shit and that 101
Starting point is 02:03:17 would break into multiple videos with multiple stories because out of like let's say the 50 people that are there that week and there's going to be 10 with incredible stories so you're going to have 10 10 videos incredible stories yeah incredible stories hey someone said uh dave could probably get it for you uh to do it for 10,000 that sucks that it's on that obvious seven have you asked dave no no i have not kind of kind of a couple years ago when they fired me I started making these for them but all the ones that I made for them the people were wearing masks
Starting point is 02:03:51 so they know I can do it they're just I don't know I don't even know if Dave and Nicole believe it I mean let's just go the opposite way maybe what I'm just a completely fucking delusional fucking dingbat and it's not true but god i have so much evidence that it is true from my fucking years of working there and yeah i can just tell them hey go go open the books and look at what happened in 2017
Starting point is 02:04:18 go look what happened in 2009 i can tell you the times that i was promoting the l1 i could change their whole shit hey and it's only going to get crazier do you get would you think cross would ever sponsor this and hey that's the way they can contribute to this podcast without being affiliated with the podcast what do you mean like pay to go to those l1s yeah because they don't they have an issue with the fact that one of my favorite groups growing up was NWA. I get it. I think that, and I've said this before, that the health of the L1, like the more people that are crammed into those things
Starting point is 02:04:54 and they're just selling out weekend after weekend, is a direct correlation to the health of CrossFit as a company. Because the more people that are going into the L1s that want to elevate to coaches or to know more about the methodology, a certain percentage of them are going to convert into affiliate owners. And then the ones that don't have any interest in owning their own business are just going to fill the pipeline for current affiliates to have more knowledgeable people and coaches that could eventually become full-time coaches or even just part-time coaches in the gym, which significantly help out the existing affiliates.
Starting point is 02:05:28 And the education, like I just said, is the biggest differentiator between CrossFit and the other fitness options out there. And so the more that they're highlighting that, it creates a status, just like we've done on this show. So we talk about it, we harp on it, and you talk about how great it is. And the people who have their L1 have a little bit more status? Yeah, and inside their gym,
Starting point is 02:05:49 they got their L1, they're going to this weekend, people celebrate it. It's an interesting kind of status, though, too. It's kind of like... Not like you're going there to be cool. It's not cheap. It's not cheap. It's not like something you can buy.
Starting point is 02:06:02 It's like, oh, that person went to their L1. They have some intimacy and some knowledge that I don't have. It's not like, oh, they have a Rolls Royce, so they have better status. It's better than that. Right. You are into CrossFit so much that you took it upon yourself to go and learn more about the methodology and really dive into it with the course. There was something. Oh, UTFO, yeah, listen to them. And let me be clear.
Starting point is 02:06:26 It's not the fact that I listen to NWA. It's the fact that I sing the lyrics out loud and Two Life Crew and my car loud with the windows down. People of the world can hear me. Sebi, if you want to do the 100 words video footage, I'll narrate it for an autograph and that chocolate dick. 100 words, what? Narrate it? I don't know what you're talking about. Where was SEMA Globes saying this? we started sima globes listen carefully people
Starting point is 02:06:49 we started reading the l1 as a group on zoom if anyone wants to join what the fuck how am i the last one to know about that uh who who's in charge of the affiliate department they should be fuck whoever's in charge of that should be like dude you should fucking call me like you're dropping the ball by not calling me and be like hey will you come you should be colluding with whoever runs the L1s
Starting point is 02:07:16 call or hi hey Simone hey Matt this is Rory I just opened an affiliate in San Francisco. I've been with Matt back and forth over the past year or so. Yeah, congratulations too, brother. You got something coming up soon, don't you?
Starting point is 02:07:35 Yeah, yeah. We're having like a kind of, I guess, special opening or celebration in two weeks from now. But we've been kind of going with it now about two and a half. It'll be right around three months by the time we can have that official. I just wanted to call in and share
Starting point is 02:07:57 a... We're doing a memorial workout today that I created and I have a few gyms back home in Ireland that are doing it as well. What's the name of your gym and do you have a website? Yeah, we have a website on Instagram. It's
Starting point is 02:08:14 F-I-O-R sphere dot fit dot C-F. Okay. Our last post was a memorial workout that we're taking on today we had a couple classes did this morning with classes this afternoon doing it as well it's uh in in memory of my sister and and uh each of other 30 others who were killed in a
Starting point is 02:08:49 30 others who were killed in an atrocity back in Northern Ireland 20 years ago today. I just like to share the workout. And if anyone that watches the show or wants to jump in on the workout, take it on as well. Fiorafitness, F-I-O-R.fitness.cf. At 3.10 p.m. August 15, 1998, an atrocity took place in Omaha that took 31 lives, severely injuring hundreds and impacting the lives of countless others. Through tragedy and loss, families became closer, communities came together, and it became the initiation for change for the country. This week marks the 25th anniversary of the Omaha bombing, so we'd like to dedicate a memorial workout to those who lost their lives,
Starting point is 02:09:29 including our sister, Jolene. Did I say her name right? Yep. Undoubtedly, the event of that day have shaped why we see value in bringing people together and working hard together. Wow, dude.
Starting point is 02:09:41 That's crazy. You lost your sister. Hey, are your parents still alive? Yeah. I had two sisters that were both in it. One got severely injured and one unfortunately died. How severe is severe? Any brain trauma?
Starting point is 02:10:02 Not brain trauma. Massive skin graft and loss. a chunk out of her leg um her her right arm was severely kind of mutilated but it's came back and she got full mobility back in it but she'll be doing the workout somewhere at home as well hey how many siblings do you have just those two sisters no I have two brothers as well oh shit big family did you say your parents are still alive yeah they're both alive I met a guy at the games
Starting point is 02:10:37 I didn't meet him I know a guy at the games a lot of you know him and he has everything a human being could possibly want and um he lost a child he lost a child a teenage child dude and he was telling me this story and it's basically like when that happens to you you're done like you basically just your life turns into just a living fucking nightmare
Starting point is 02:11:07 and you just fucking like it's over. Your shit's all fucked up. I just can't even fucking imagine. I mean this guy has everything. You know what I mean? He's got surrounded by love and money and it's just like so much love and this guy is so genuine. He's one of the coolest dudes I know.
Starting point is 02:11:24 I can't believe I've known him for so many years I've never heard the story. I was stoked he told it to me. But, man, your parents, man. My sister was the oldest of our family. She was 17 when we were back. But it's like obviously my older sister was in hospital for quite a few months after it. And so I can't, the rest of my larger family kind of really came around and helped with us younger kids. And then it's definitely what it brought us closer as a family.
Starting point is 02:11:59 And I still. Yeah, this guy's close with his family. That's funny. So this guy, I guess it can do two things. It could tear your fucking family apart or this guy's close with his family. That's funny you said that. This guy, I guess it can do two things. It could tear your fucking family apart, or this guy's family's crazy close. Yeah, especially I come from a pretty rural part of Ireland, so it's like a small-town community, super small parish,
Starting point is 02:12:22 and so most of my family still live there. Is that why you left? no I don't think why did you open a gym in San Francisco? should I have you on a show and just talk to you about this? is something wrong with you? I mean that I'm not even joking
Starting point is 02:12:41 no we can talk it over I've been living here for 10 years now I mean that. I'm not even joking. No, we can talk it over, yeah. I've been living here for 10 years now, and my wife and I were both coaching at another affiliate for a number of years, and we put a lot of effort, really loved that affiliate, loved that community, and just wanted to create more of the same ourselves. So I spoke to Matt, I would say, almost one year ago on the phone. He really helped me through the early process of figuring out what to do.
Starting point is 02:13:16 And then it took a little while to get real estate, but we got opened just in June and things have been growing nicely hey you got a picture here you posted nine weeks ago this is either the gay men's choir of San Francisco or the Irish World Cup team these are the whitest motherfuckers I've ever seen I hope you gave them big old sombreros when they went outside it's okay if you're Irish to culturally appropriate the sombrero you need it these motherfuckers are like skin cancer patients
Starting point is 02:13:48 walking around look at these fucking guys who the fuck are these white guys they come to the city because it's foggy most of the time oh good jesus christ this isn't even white this is like pat velner protect them hey anytime you think white people are, just pull this photo up and fucking fix you real quick. There's nothing privileged about being this white. Jesus Christ. Who are these guys? It's a local. So I grew up playing a sport called Gaelic football.

Starting point is 02:17:04 butthole the whole time that you're in there like why what is you eat them every time or something no no not even i mean i would i think i would i think i was it was like i was 51 but they were i was i was 51 winner and they were 49 i'll say that right okay and and they fancied themselves as athletes, and I was just fucking – I didn't fancy myself as nothing. Ding dong. So yesterday, my son – there's this other kid in my – I'm just – I don't know if this is true or not. But he's the best playing kid in tennis besides my son for his age in the area. They're the two best kids at their age in tennis in the area, let's say let's say in the area i mean let's say within 50 miles of my house no that's not true i forgot about the asian kids over the hill within 20 miles of my house okay
Starting point is 02:17:54 if you go south it's within 400 miles but if you go north it's only 10 miles there's the asian but so i he this kid's out of school and we go over to his house to play tennis so my kid can play their kid right and they have they have tennis courts in their in their compound on their property on their like in their neighborhood and in their gated community so we go there and they play and then afterwards I asked the lady the mom I said hey do you want to play doubles me and you against the two boys? And she's like, fuck yeah. And they all three play tennis, and I don't play tennis. But I play tennis every day, but I play a game that I made up called short court, and I play it with the boys.
Starting point is 02:18:35 And the whole entire time I play the game, I talk. Talk shit or just talk in general? Chirp, chirp, everything. Like, fuck, oh my god god look at that topspin holy shit you look tired it's in even though i i know it's going out okay and and i know one time that the several times the the tennis coach has said to me hey dude do you feel good talking shit to your kids i'm like yeah i feel great about it because he i warm my kids up and he walks up while i'm warming them up and i'm just fucking just crushing them what do you play game baby what are you playing mind games the whole time

Yeah, well, the reason why I did it like that was because uh it was just it's just supposed to be for our audio version only um but i figured in order to you weren't even going for video well the reason why is that it needs to be like done live on the show and i was like the only way where that's going to happen you remember to do is if you could just click a button because

Starting point is 02:42:30 And the guy at Parkinson's was not Happy so I regret it Yeah I think there's so much Nuance to that No you should just Probably explain it And not go up to them. I mean, what did your kids do?
Starting point is 02:42:48 Did they walk up to the guy and go, hey, why are you shaking and moving around like you're fucked up? Well, she went up there with the kid at the same time. Why would someone be mad? No, that's a one in a million. You can talk to anyone. No one's going to be mad. would someone be mad no that's a one in a million you can talk to anyone no one's be mad i don't i just hey hey what what what if what if your kid's never seen someone who's black or a black person
Starting point is 02:43:10 has never seen someone who's white like i i went to africa and people were people i was the first white person people saw them they come up to you and they can't even fucking believe what they're looking at i mean you're not like offended if your kid never saw like a albino before and he walked up and he's like just like staring at you i mean hey dude if you're a fucking alb if you're different everywhere you go people are staring at you and you gotta fucking accept that if you're albino if you're seven feet tall if you're the only black dude in fucking boulder uh like like hey that's the fucking way it is if you have huge tits I mean that's even
Starting point is 02:43:51 and there's different degrees some people are scared of you some people are curious but people want to stare they want to see new shit yeah but you don't think that there's a ton of nuance on how you approach that and when to approach it and the context of the situation you're in i mean like i don't think you could
Starting point is 02:44:10 just blanket statement say that in the way i'm not worried about i'm not worried about those other people you're not doing it like it's just your kid's intention like if you like your kid's not doing anything wrong if he wants to go up to someone and be like excuse me what what happened to your arm it's like dude your kid is just trying to figure out what's going on in the world yeah i don't know there's a lot of nuance to it and i think the the ability and the things that you have with people and like very many people possess the same thing like i've been i've just been with you in places and you'll come up in the way that the interaction and the way that you have to talk with people is very unique and people are like drawn to it a lot of
Starting point is 02:44:51 people don't have that the nuance and they don't they don't like understand the push and pull of what's happening is listen if you're a straight dude and heidi comes and talks to you you're good thank you I appreciate it yeah I don't know I'm just trying to help people out maybe
Starting point is 02:45:10 oh fuck this isn't gonna work I know I know you are and you're a good dude too hey this isn't gonna what if I put this
Starting point is 02:45:18 gray one back there so that so it just highlights the cord yeah yeah perfect perfect and by the way i wasn't uh saying what heidi did was wrong either so please don't conflate that with uh me just saying that you have to understand context and nuance in all situations when dealing with human beings
Starting point is 02:45:38 i could go over the chord yeah just go over the cord. I have black ones too. Hey dude, I sent a bunch of these to John Young. Good dude. These are nice, right? Yeah.

Starting point is 02:46:32 of the crack makes it so you don't see the cord do you like the gray it kind of gives it some nice texture right outlines it yeah looks good I kind of like the cord there because then people have something to complain about and now that it's covered

I was like, maybe CrossFit Live live more responsive the fake account oh but i wanted you to pitch it to me what's what's the return on it yeah i don't know i wasn't feeling uh here's the thing i'm more certain this is a horrible pitch, but this is fair. I don't know. I don't know. I'm more certain that CrossFit's dumb for not fucking paying me $50,000 a month to go to one seminar a month than I am that this idea is good. Like they're just fucking nuts.

Starting point is 03:00:16 please stop by. Right. Yeah. No, you're right. It would definitely work better if it was a brand that wanted to get their name out there and you could buy stuff online. Like it's a business that I have. So like, unless you're in the area it's you know right but people would eventually know what crossfit livermore is very it's pretty cool oh my god it's about

But first time meeting my ex-girlfriend's grandparents, she had her brother give me a ride to their house in a Honda Civic. And on the way there, for some reason, I'm 17 at the time, but at the way there, she felt that it 17 at the time but at the way there she felt that it was a very good idea um while her brother was driving to give me head in the back of the honda
Starting point is 03:02:31 civic right before we go meet her grandparents for thanksgiving dinner for the very first time it was uh entertaining to say say the least and yes i went to completion um and it was a very fantastic thanksgiving dinner i've never done anything in the back of a cop car but i've say the least. And yes, I went to completion. Um, and it was a very fantastic Thanksgiving dinner. I've never done anything in the back of a cop car, but I've definitely done plenty in the back of a car. Do you think her brother knew? I'm pretty sure he, I was about two or three years older than him at the time. And so, you know,
Starting point is 03:03:01 he's, he's 16 years old. I'm about to be 18, 19 years old. He thought I was badass, even though I was pretty much a loser at that point in my life. But anything I did, he thought was cool. He always tried to get me weed. He always tried to find his friends to get me alcohol. He just tried to be super cool. And so I guess he thought if he was driving the car while I was getting ahead in the back from his sister, that he was a badass also. Wow. Wow.
Starting point is 03:03:27 Wow. I'm sure you've done shit like that too, right? No, never. Come on. Wow. All right. Well, I had to call in. Thank you.
