Hey hey i'm more live good morning i um i'm i labeled the cheesy sound effects on the roadcaster this morning when i say i labeled them i just took a pen and just wrote on the roadcaster i know you're not supposed to do that and you could add in your own like i never use these and i probably should right hi fasting day only caveman move uh fasting day only uh only good dudes coffee flowing in

these veins i'm fasting today too yesterday was far far far from fasting. Show's live from Newport Beach. Hence the white wall, sitting in a kitchen. I don't know, 20 meters from the ocean. Perfect, perfect day, 7.30 in the morning. Came from upstairs to downstairs. Perfect weather. I bet you it's already 730 in the morning.

I bet you it's 75 degrees. Zero wind. Beach is so clean. There's this giant, it's a huge beach, first of all. Meaning thick. The distance between the sand, where the water hits the sand, and then how much room you have to lay out and play and do sand shit is huge. And they got this machine.

I think it does it like at four in the morning, this huge machine. I think I've talked to you guys about it before. And it basically just drives down the beach. I don't know how deep it sifts into the sand, but it's basically this claw and it just scrapes all the shit out of the sand, right? Any litter, just anything.

So every morning, it's like a brand-new beach. It's cool. A giant sifter, and the guy just drives it back and forth. I wonder how much money that guy makes. What do you think he works like from 4 a.m. to 9 a.m. every day? Maybe there's two dudes doing it. And I wonder if they sift through all the shit they find. You know that thing's got to find some cool stuff.

It looks like it could pick up big, big things too, like umbrellas and towels, and there's no stopping this thing. At least that's what it appears. Jeffrey Birchfield, Rogue In rogue invitational here we go yeah josh bridges is coming on the show today and then going back to the caveman uh josh is the i don't know what he is to good dudes anymore he's the owner. He's the mascot. He's both. I do know that our very own Gabe Maldonado, Paper Street Coffee, has somehow intertwined, intersected, intercoursed.

Yeah, let's say that. He's intercoursed with the good dudes. Matt Marv, good morning. Adam, good morning. Audrey, good morning. 7.30, yeah. The thing is, I haven't slept in an extra half hour today. By the way, I am so tan.

You guys wouldn't even believe this. Oh, you probably can't see the tan line because of the lighting in here. I am so dark. I am brown. Just call me a brown man. Josh couldn't come on until 8. And so I was like, you know what? I'm going to sleep in an extra half hour and just come on a half hour before Josh and with the homies.

And I know you guys want to talk about Tyson Bajan. I know you want to talk about, excuse me, the National Football League. This came out, I don't know, 15 minutes ago. I think there were some people in here who didn't believe that Tyson didn't believe, no, worse than didn't believe Tyson Bajent was going to the Bears, they

poo-pooed it. There were people who poo-pooed it. You know who you are. You know who you is. It's been an impressive summer for a lot of the quarterbacks in the National Football League draft class of 2023. Bryce Young in Carolina, Aiden O'Connell in Las Vegas,

Dorian Thompson-Robinson in Cleveland, and others in between. The QB selected in April's draft are off to a strong start in the preseason. The early success extends beyond the drafted quarterbacks to Chicago, where undrafted rookie Tyson Bajent performed well enough throughout training camp and the preseason to win the Bears' backup QB spot behind Mr. Justin Fields. Bajent from the D2 powerhouse. Shepard.

Beat out veteran. Veteran. It's not veteran. It's veteran. Veteran. PJ Walker for the number two spot. Veteran. I think for like 40 years.

I think it was only until I was probably like 40 that I knew it was veteran. I used to say veteran. Veterinarian? Veteran of the Vietnam War? Veteran? Or is it veterinary? I don't even know how to say veterinarian. 51 years old. Don't tell anyone.

An impressive rise for Tyson Bajent, who had a mixed bag of Senior Bowl of a Senior Bowl week that likely kept him from being drafted in the late rounds. That's not true. That's not even true. That part's not even true.

How do we know what's true in this article? He did great at the senior bowl. Jackass. He completed 20 of his 29 passes for 156 yards and one interception in Chicago's three preseason games, also running for

two touchdowns. He threw a pass, from my understanding, hit a guy in the numbers in the end zone. The guy dropped the ball. And then I think he had three more right after that.

Three more incompletions. One that ended up being an interception. But if that dude would have caught the ball that hit him in the numbers, it would have been the craziest rookie preseason ever. Matt Burns, Seve's hung over. No, I'm not hung over. Really? Do I seem hung over?

I feel like I look great. Dark, hair's thick, shirt feels snug. Rambler, I've never seen people do 8-10 rep front squats at the gym. I've never seen people do 8-10 reps. squats uh at the gym i've never seen people do eight to ten reps for why not why not they can do it let them do it be cool chris g good morning good morning

what's wrong with eight to ten uh dakota miller thank you the redhead from wisconsin i don't know where he's from. Says hit the like button. Ernie Garza. Letting us know that Mr. Bajan had great numbers. I don't know if there's anything official yet, by the way. I couldn't find anything official. This is just some guy.

This guy released this at 951 eastern time so it was like 40 minutes ago a guy named jeff risden and it's from some oh it's usa today sports from some page they have called draft wire uh when is uh bajan uh coming on i don't know I've been bugging him I'm going to have him on every morning he probably hates me for that he's probably already like what have I got myself into I heard someone saying the other day that

if you're with someone and they text you that 8 hours is too long before you text them back like, the window has to be shorter than eight hours. This game, this podcast game and just all the people I text with and interact with through WhatsApp and through texting, it's a long game. I don't return text to people for days. I just got to sift. I'm just constantly sifting through them and it's mood and necessity driven. Right. So like a Clydesdale media,

they have till tomorrow to get the official roster number. So like if, ifott text me and i in i might put it higher up on the on the list than if someone else texted me to open it because he probably would share something with me that's relevant to my show or the games or something or help and text me uh 8 29 i might open it sooner than others 8 29 that's August 29th at 4pm is the deadline cutting to the 53 man roster so it's August 28th we have more than

24 hours okay Olsen dudes Mr. Olsen is so pumped for Tyson he's a stud wishing him and his team an awesome season. How excited is Travis? Holy cow. Excuse me.

Mary Monasur, who works for Toe Spacers, and we know Tyson Bajent works for Toe Spacers, so maybe they're friends. Okay. I got something funny for you. Ready? Totally off subject. Let's get back to work here.

I saw this. I saw this meme. And this just made me think. This is left logic. This is, this is why, you know, the woke always eat the woe.

This is, this is their logic. I saw this. Someone sent me this this morning, or at least I saw it this morning and I just really liked it. Okay. It says, uh,

um, this is how left people watch movies. Okay. It's a, uh, it's a, uh, oh,

the white guy's wearing a do-rag so it's a black guy holding a gun pointing it at a white guy and the guy from the left is says why is the black guy always the villain then it's a white guy holding a gun pointing it at a black guy and it says why does the black guy have to get shot then it's a black guy holding the gun against the black guy and it says why is it only the black people are killing each other and then it's a white guy holding the gun up to another white guy and it says why are there no black people in the movie like yep that's it there it is oh this site's called the gay republican what what a great juxtaposition of shit

a comment on woke idiocy it's a gay republican site and then the first line in the post is Jesus loves you wow and when I saw that I was like I don't understand and I was like you can't understand you cannot understand.

Iev Vabornov. Iev Vabornov. Is that a real name or is that a joke name? Am I reading that right? Savant, ask Josh Bridges what happened between him and Dan Bailey. Seems like they're not friends anymore. Coffee wars? No, no, I think they're all patched up. Everyone's all, everyone's patched up. I think that all those dudes are all patched up. The Riches and the Dans and the Joshes.

Give me something, give me something specific. Did you see him, you saw him spit on his mom's grave or something? Like, what happened? Shut it. Judge Trish, not cool. Passive-aggressive is not cool. You know, I don't like to read into shit. Thank you.

Mike Sauer is here. He's my personal tech guy for the show. Unofficial, yet personal uh tech guy for the show unofficial yet let me guess you're a huge bears fan and you have some important shit to tell me no a couple months ago i called about my wife and i doing a home birth want to give you an update oh oh i love it yeah tell me birth fit. Yeah. Yeah. So June 15th, wife woke up 5 a.m. and I was getting ready to go to work. She's like, hey, I think it's happening. And I was like, there's no way. And then at 11 a.m., kid was in the pool. We had a baby. It was absolutely insane. Where do you work?

So I work at Liberty University in lynchburg virginia and and um did you call what do you do you call your your supervisor your boss and you're like hey i'm not making it yeah so they were all kind of like on alert right uh they're kind of ready for it and then i basically called them and then said like hey look i don't know if i'm coming in today and they're like oh okay like they didn I don't know if I'm coming in today. And they're like, oh, okay. They didn't ask and say anything they kind of knew. But we definitely had a lot of people thinking about us because a home birth isn't your most typical way to deliver.

But yeah, told the bosses. And then the next day, I was able to go in and enter my time off. And I was able to take some time to be with my family. So everybody's supervisors bosses were awesome with everything. Hey dude, six hours is money. That's like, that's, that's good shit.

And so we, I, at first, like we felt bad talking about it, right? We, we felt like we were bragging but then we kind of looked back on it and we're like well we know brag brag yeah so with with this with this birth

like my wife was a monster she only ate clean food right she wasn't a pregnant mother who's uh sucking down soda and candies and cakes and stuff like that getting ice cream um she exercised like crazy right we're we're a crossfit family um we did a ton of stretches for preparing for it like i had this mexican blanket that i'm shaking her belly and rubbing her hips with and everything so like we we prepared for it. We knew what was coming. We were ready for it. And things went phenomenal. Six hours of hard-ish labor. And she was an absolute champ when it came time to push in. How old's your wife? She turned 30 in July. Okay. first baby. A boy or a girl? It's a boy. And I'm

extremely happy about that. It just kind of is what it is. I wanted to raise a man for this world. We need men. I like it.

So at 5 a.m., she's like, hey, some shit's going on. And so she was, you know, those contractions, they're called like Braxton Hicks or something. I could be saying it wrong. But you started having those before. Was she having those already when she went to bed? Yeah. So oddly enough, so again, with all the care that we were doing. So she was born on a Thursday on Wednesday

morning, she went to our, our body works guy. Uh, he's a chiropractor by trade, but he does all kind of like acupuncture and fascia work. And you know, he hit something on her and said, Hey, if the baby's ready, it'll come. If it's not no big big deal and then with her other pregnant friend uh who was a week overdue she went to this hill and basically did till i don't want to say sprint but like walked up and down this massive hill so at 10 p.m on wednesday she said she started to feel some things and she started to kind of like track it on her phone uh but yeah those kind of like small little fluttery contractions at 10 p.m and then when i woke up five she was already up she said hey all my apps are telling me that i need to go to the hospital

like i think this thing's coming and i was like there's no way like where we he was born three weeks early. Oh shit. Oh shit. Wow. 37 weeks. Wow. Wow. Yeah. Everything normal. Did he come out like with the, like come out? Okay.

Like no umbilical cord wrapped around his neck or he came out breathing or it's all good. Man, it, it, it was, it was that perfect of a birth as you can imagine. He came out and he was just dialed in. Uh, is he eating? Does he eat off the boob and all that? Oh yeah. Yeah. It was as perfect of a birth as you can imagine. He came out and he was just dialed in. Does he eat off the boob and all that? Oh, yeah. Yeah. So for us, the hardest thing has been breastfeeding.

She is like all she wants to do is breastfeed. So she's just been like an absolute warrior. My wife just wanted to breastfeed too. Like that's it. Just sitting breastfeed so she's just been like an absolute warrior like that's my what my wife just wanted breastfeed too like that's it just yeah sitting breastfeed yeah his uh his latches wasn't the best and he just you know he's he needs to he needs to keep working on it um but it was like super painful tough or whatever but um she's been a monster fortunately because we've been open about everything it seems like every set of parents we talked to is like, Oh yeah, we really struggled with that too.

And it's kind of like, well, well, Hey, you've known for seven, eight, six, seven months that we're going to have a baby.

Why aren't, why aren't people talking about this stuff? Why aren't people talking more about the struggles of breastfeeding, the struggles with, you know, sleep and postpartum depression and everything. I feel like that needs to become more regular mainstream. So that way you're not sitting there in your house alone thinking you're outcast, but no, it's a normal thing for everybody. Another thing too, is, is like, I just forget a ton of shit. Like they told me, I remember the midwives were like, Hey,

you're going to forget a lot. And I'm like, there's no way I'm going to forget a lot. And within a year, I'd forgotten so much. I'd forgotten so much. It becomes just kind of a blur. I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that you just don't get a lot of sleep. So you don't build good memory. Not good as in good or bad. You just don't build strong memories. Yeah.

No, that's such a good point. I have friends my age that have kids and I remember them telling me like, oh, I didn't sleep. But until you're actually in it, you know, in those three hour feed, wake, sleep cycles, you just you truly don't understand it. And then we got to a point where, in my mind, I was like, man, the first process was kind of easy compared to going through all the lack of sleep and breastfeeding struggles and everything. Emma in the comments says, celebrating my six-month-old today, have only breastfed, one of the hardest things I've ever done.

So she's on board with your wife. Yeah. yeah and uh for emma like if if you haven't had a bunch of lactation consultants if you haven't taken your child to get body work done so his jaw wasn't opening very well so again back to our body work guy our chiropractor like we're just we're doing everything we can and attacking it um in in every way possible um it's tough though it definitely is a struggle you know my wife did this thing it's called um i still make fun of her for it our first kid did cranial sacral therapy it's this i don't know what the fuck it is but i really like the lady who did it but i never like i would go to the sessions sessions and i don't, it seemed like more like Ouija board than real shit to me,

but the lady was cool as shit. And anyway, he would do these sessions like once a week or once every two weeks. And literally I remember being somewhere one time after like six months of him doing craniosacral therapy and someone walks up and goes, uh, hi. And we're like, Hey, she's like, I'm a craniosacral therapist. And your son has a perfect head. I looked at my wife and I're like, hey, she's like, I'm a craniosacral therapist and your son has a perfect head. I looked at my wife. Yeah. Holy shit. And I guess it has something to do with like massaging or keeping the whatever the bones are that make your fucking dome properly aligned as the baby develops. It was a trip that she recognized it.

Another craniosacral. Look, Slinky says this. Holy shit. A craniosacral is legit. Wow. Wow. Yeah. I mean, so with the,

the chiropractor we're taking it to, if I didn't already have a relationship with this person, I would have been like, you're, you're an idiot. Right. Cause they literally use one finger and just kind of like rub. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. It's like, so subtle, right? So like this, like anything, like you're insane.

But, you know, we've been able to see tension get loosened up in him, his jaw able to open a little bit more. Like anything, I'm a believer once I kind of see the results. It definitely helps. It definitely does. When she woke up at 5 in the morning and she, or when she told you, Hey,

it's, I think it's going to happen. Did you call them at, uh, the doulas or the midwives or what happened? I think I remember I called the doulas first and then the doulas come. And then later you call the midwife. Is that how?

Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yep. So our doula probably, so like I, I am really good at going to work and I'm really good at doing dishes and that's about it.

Like my wife is the handyman around the house. A light bulb needs to get screwed in, she does it. So we need to get the, so we call the doula and the doula shows up around seven and she's unreal. Then eventually the doula calls the midwife and the midwife shows up but in between my wife's contractions we're pulling out the washing machine, we're hooking up the hoses

we're filling up the tub getting everything ready because I don't know how to hold a wrench I do but I don't so she's mid contraction telling me do this, do that. Because, yeah, you have to have a water source to fill up your birthing tub.

And so no one believed her where it was like, hey, this baby's coming. You know, the doula was like, okay, like, I'll take a shower and I'll be over quickly. And then even when she was there, she's's like do you want to go for a walk outside and my wife's like I love you but this is happening I'm about to give birth to this kid and it reached a point where I'm running around the house

we have a stove upstairs downstairs in our home and I'm boiling pots of water to fill this up and our doula eventually is like hey you better be in here you might miss the birth like what and uh within 10 or 15 minutes of our midwife showing up yeah my my my son was delivered and it's uh one of the the key difference between in my opinion a home birth and a hospital birth is when you're home, you're so

much more connected with your body. You're so much more in touch with everything that's going on. And so it reached a point where my wife was like, yeah, I can push and I feel him coming out, but I'm not ready yet. Right? Like my mid midwife isn't here i don't want to push him out because i don't want to care whereas when you're in the hospital it's all right hey i got three other moms on the clock here like let's go get this thing out and so to see my wife in this moment just being so in tune so in touch with her body and like just basically her presence filled the room like everybody was just

you know hanging on to her like man it was trippy it was heavy stuff I appreciate you sharing this and I know it's intimate and vulnerable but and I apologize for

the speculation here by Trish but Trish says excuse me you can't change a light bulb that That baby is definitely the body work guys kid. I'm just letting you know, just, it's just, Trish has some out there ideas, but, um, you know, yeah, I'll, I'll, I'll reply to Trish in the sense of like, uh, Trish, know what your strengths and weaknesses are and then find your find your perfect opposite human to kind of fill those things.

Okay. So, you know, I'm pretty dialed in on the nutrition side of things. So I'll assist my wife in that. And then when it comes to changing the oil. Did you have intercourse with her nine months prior to the baby coming out, 37 weeks prior? Did you have intercourse with her nine months prior to the baby coming out, 37 weeks prior? So our pregnancy, our birth, our everything was extremely planned. So my wife, as soon as we got married, she was like, okay, time to start having kids. And I was like, whoa, well, not really.

Like, let's enjoy ourselves being married. Let's kind of figure ourselves out. Let's bring our child into a better world. She's like, oh, okay. Finally, she was knocking down the door of, it's time. We need to have a baby. She probably watched every single first video or whatever on YouTube imaginable. She was tracking her cycles perfectly into the T. And so basically she was like,

okay, if we try to get pregnant in October, we'll have a July baby. That's what we wanted. We want to have a child over summer. We rented out the upstairs of our house. We lived in the basement. So- To a man or to a woman?

To a man or a woman to a man or a woman, uh, to three college age women that went to school. Yeah. And so, uh, our renters moved out on like June 1st and he was born on June 15th, like as planned as it could get. And then,

uh, if we want to get super deep and into it uh we both wanted a boy and there's talk there's research whatever you want to call it out there that male sperm are faster but they die off quicker so let's say her her egg is in the perfect spot. We have sex, but her egg is not yet in the perfect spot. We have sex. So sperm will still be around. However, the male sperm are going to die off quicker than the female. You're going to have a girl.

So we tracked her cycle so well and then started trying to have a baby. What we were hoping was the perfect time to try to have a boy um you have had a course with your wife yeah yeah okay sorry long-winded story but yeah hey congratulations keep me posted um uh you're you're stoked good tell your wife good job uh it's the only way to do it. Home birth is the only way. I said it. That's the plan for the next child, whenever God gives us their blessings.

It's incredible. Talk to you soon. Don't forget, those titties aren't going to stay huge forever. Play with them a lot. That's my advice to you. Bye. Okay. The thing is, you have to understand, dude, he's like the guy that just found God or CrossFit or carnivore or vegan. You know what I mean?

That guy's high as a kite. Think about the first time you ever did blow. That's where he is. He's stuck up there because he just had a baby comments were great uh reset savvy okay i am i'm resetting i'm resetting uh jay uh ruffner uh was that sporty beth no that was a guy that was a guy. He's lucky. It's interesting that usually those really planned out people, I don't think of them as the home birth people.

The way he had timed everything. He timed everything like that. Oh, you sent Josh a link? No, I didn't send Josh a link. I guess that's important. Susie just asked me, have you sent Josh a link? No, it's just swept away in the um in the uh pregnancy story oh now i have yes now oh shit okay sent damn uh seven did you uh yeah that was but there were some good comments in there

That's cool. That's exciting. You know, that was one of the places I remember before my wife and I had kids, she would say that to me. She goes, Hey, if you ever want to move to Barcelona, we can move there. I'd go there. Yeah. So the weather all year round is like, uh, San Diego basically. Cause it's on the same latitude or longitude, whatever. Uh, same line as what you know in line with the earth equator as uh san diego so the weather is awesome um and for us like with my condition we look at like medical

Wow.

Listen to this Patrick Clark. Uh, I guess this is a big event. Uh, last year they limited the total of athletes to 1000. Yeah. So that shit's the popular. Wow.

I think, I think CrossFit in Spain overall is just popular. I think it's, it's blowing up there. Shit. That's cool. And how exciting for your daughter to go there. She's going to have a blast. Yeah.

Yeah, I think it'll be good for her. Hopefully she'll learn some Spanish. Don't let her vape, dude. Don't let her vape. Right. Don't let her vape. Everyone's vaping. Someone told me the other day

that their kid goes to school in Santa Cruz California and they're in the 7th grade and that every single girl there in the 7th grade class vapes and I couldn't even fucking believe it dude and you know Santa Cruz isn't like a poor area

and one of the girls is pregnant. Seventh grade. You know what you have to do to get pregnant? You know, right? Right. I don't like to think about it when it comes to my daughter, but, you know. Yeah.

Protect. Keep busy. I think you just got to keep them busy. How old is your daughter? She's 14. Yeah, keep them busy. old's your daughter she's 14 yeah keep them busy you keep her busy oh yeah yeah yeah the good news is is all her friends tell her they're scared of me because of my size in a wheelchair oh good yeah your dad's weird he's in a wheelchair why is he why is he on wheels all the time good yeah hey uh heidi says Good. Hey, Heidi says poor people can't afford the vape juice. Okay, fair enough.

Is Heidi saying I'm poor? No, no, not just in general, because I told her, I think she means, I was saying Santa Cruz, it's I can't believe people vape here. It's a wealthy area. She's basically saying yeah, that's what wealthy motherfuckers do. They get the vape juice. Oh, gotcha. Oh, look, Alpen wants to throw in on this

information, too. He's not going to let Patrick Clark outknowledge him. Mike Halpin from Barbell Spin or Be Friendly Fitness or any of the valuable resources of information says two of the top ten,

three of the top twenty open participation affiliates is from Spain. Oh, shit. So you were saying that CrossFit is crazy popular in Spain, and he's saying, yeah, the open numbers show that two of the gyms are top 10 most participants in the games and three of the top 20. So, yeah, shit. So those gyms really are involved, especially in the games and three of the top 20 so so yeah shit so those gyms really are involved especially in the competition side yeah yeah it's a really great vibe there for crossfit and saying from what i have experienced how many wheelchairs do you have uh two well i'll take two i have my chair, which can be used as a regular chair technically, but I have like my lap straps and stuff and it's just, and it's weighted differently. So it doesn't really as easy like to get around town. So it just becomes a pain. So I always take two. I take my regular chair as well.

think that if i was in a wheelchair it would become there would become a problem like i would it would be like i used to like before i had kids i used to i had so many fucking bikes i probably had 40 bikes i just you know what i mean or like shoes i would just think yeah i know that there's nowhere to put them but i would end up having like 10 chairs or i'd always be modifying my shit like always i hear you but at the same time it's like it's more similar to like how dirt bikes work for me once you get yours dialed in and you get used to it you don't want to touch any others okay like it just feels weird like I wouldn't like when I raced I wouldn't hop on other guys bikes because it was just like no I'm I'm used to mine and I'm good with it what about an electric chair chair? Would you do an electric chair?

I freaking hate electric wheelchairs. Dude, I had to be on one of those for a month when I was in the hospital. Dude, just big, bulky, they're a pain in the ass. Any enjoyment in them? No. If you want to drive something, you'll drive a car. If you want to drive something, you'll drive a car. If you want to drive something, you'll drive a car. It's just a shitty car.

Yeah, if you get a chance, you'll have to see. I have a sort of like an off-road electric wheelchair. It's more like a four-wheeler bike that I use for like playing golf and stuff. I've put up a couple videos of that, and that thing's fun. But, I mean, it's not like an everyday thing. It's just to basically get off roads and explore. Uh, dildo said, uh, be more specific when you say electric chair. That's true. We don't want to get the two. Um, Yeah. Yeah. I'm talking about a regular wheelchair.

You're not talking about the one where you kill someone and we're not talking about that kind of where the guy straps. no no no no um i mean yeah don't get me wrong the reality is that someday i'm probably going to be an electric wheelchair towards the end um to be able to get around and so they serve their purpose for those that need them but while i have a choice i don't want i don't want anything to do with one yeah i get that i get that i feel even just along those same lines, and I mean this in all seriousness, when I'm here in Newport, I have to walk to the grocery store. I don't have to, but I could drive.

And I appreciate the fact that I have to use some discernment and prejudice when I buy stuff because you've got to carry all your shit back, and it's a mile to the grocery store and a mile back. because you got to carry all your shit back and it's a mile to the grocery store and a mile back and yeah and and it just makes you realize like yeah you go in your car and you just load up just shit but when you got to carry it back you're like okay i'm getting this meat and this cheese and this sparkling water and like you're just more chill yeah i appreciate that yeah keeps you yeah i mean grounded electric chair next thing you know you'll be like doing blow and hookers. Yeah. There's nothing more annoying than when the overweight people on a scooter look at me and want to be like, oh, yeah, we're the same.

And I'm like, no, no, we're not. Oh, right, right. Wow. Oh, meaning they even have like all the working parts and shit, but they want to get on your level with you. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. No. Exactly.

I agree. Hey, that's almost like blackface. Right. Well, it's just their excuse to make them feel better, right? What did you do to get in the old? I wanted to be in a wheelchair, so I ate so much food that I'm now stuck in this chair. It is blackface. I wanted to be a black guy, so I painted myself black.

I think it is. Going with it. Running with it. All right. Well, congratulations. Key is posted. I think you can still listen to the show. You're only eight hours ahead.

Yeah, I'll figure it out, I'm sure. All right, Jedediah. Thanks for calling in, dude. I appreciate it. All right. We'll talk to you later. Okay, bye. Off to Wad Salona. Fuck, a thousand participants and they had to cut it off. Crazy. Oh, my

I feel better just now when I was venting just now I farted I purged something purged some anger we'll get to the bottom something has happened there there's a there's some sort of like merger or something.

Caller, hi. Hey, for like two minutes until Josh goes on. I met Ken Walters over in Madison. Oh, that's cool. He is such a cool dude. If you ever want to wonder what he is like. Yes, yes, yes. tell me. He totally reminds me of Ric Flair. Wow. He looks like Ric Flair in his picture. Yeah, so we started talking about it, and he was like,

people said, oh, I should change my profile picture. And I was like, yo, put that shit back. He's awesome. He is totally like Ric Flair. He's awesome. Wow. Wow. I see it. That's crazy.

He's younger than Ric Flair though, right? Ric Flair is 74. Who are we talking about? Ken Walters. Ken Walters is like 60, right? 64? Got awesome hair. He's like got a really good attitude.

Oh man, he was awesome. Did you get to meet him? If I did, I don't remember. Oh man, yeah. He's a really cool dude. I just wanted to share. Thanks, Devon. I love it. Good insight. Love you too. I didn't say I love you, Devon. All right. Well, thank you. I love it. Good insight. Love you, too.

Bye. But I didn't say I love you. But I do love you. Why? Is my microphone breaking up? I can't tell if my microphone is damaged or my headset's toast. Sometimes my voice is breaking up. I hope it's just the headset, not the microphone.

America. America. Let's do it. Hi. I apologize. I thought I'd be back by nine o'clock and the morning just got a little crazy. You know, you know. I want to put you through a series of tests here to see how sincere you are with your apology fair enough i'll allow it i'll thank thank you thank you okay um do you have a coffee made uh you fucking asshole you're five minutes later i was just complaining about you i go this motherfucker could be here now but he's doing a pour over that takes 12 and a half minutes it was an espresso it took like a minute pal you probably said you you probably said there's probably somewhere where you have to set a timer and your coffee sits or does something or like like you know what i mean like and you probably you probably could have been like well i could do it for 90 seconds instead of

two minutes but you're like nope i'm still going the full two minutes i'm no i did not i apologize and i did not i actually went espresso where instead of a pour over because it's faster it literally takes about an minute, one minute. So you could have been here one minute sooner, but you have an uncaffeinated version. I know. It would not be as good. I would definitely be way more boring. And I mean, that slick back hair is looking good. Dude, you like it is looking good. Yeah, man. You're how old 62 yes hey um someone asked me why i'm not uh they're like hey you don't have the man bun today i'm like yeah i ain't taking

that shit from josh i'm not putting that thing up he didn't want to hear the noise i'll tell you what that uh that hair is looking strong still man i i uh i applaud you and i and i shaved the sides um i i went there's this uh this cut that's called a viking dike cut it's like where you cut the shave the sides and go around to the back and then pull it up i know i was rocking that for a while dave driscoll has it yeah yeah i know i know uh the show vikings right the main character that guy had it too he has it i think i think of like craig ritchie or jared stevens yeah or um yeah big but yeah my wife my wife liked that show vikings i mean when you're when you're i did watch it uh the first couple seasons of it i liked it when you're not a viking

you have to have a haircut to make yourself feel like a viking that makes sense yeah well and this the reason why i said i have this friend who happens to be a lesbian and that she told me that that's i asked her i said hey you shave the size of your head should i do that because yeah go for the viking diet cut and i and i went for it good for you man i got i can say it i gotta pass from just straight from the oh yeah you gotta pass good i'm glad to hear it i was I was hanging out with this rapper yesterday. Okay. Do I know the rapper?

Is he famous? No, no, no. Okay. I don't think he knows. He doesn't have an album. I'm not a big rap guy either. I mean, old school rap, but not news. And listen, I was talking to a rapper at the Balboa Yacht Club.

A white rapper at the Balboa Yacht Club. Nice. And we started talking about words and stuff. And he asked me if I had a pass because I told him I used to live in a neighborhood where I was the only white guy. He's like, did you ever get a pass? I'm like, I didn't. Yeah. I don't think there are.

I don't think there's passes anymore anyways. I don't think that's passes anymore anyways. I don't think that's a real thing. I just do what I want to do, but I never actually got a – I was the only – I worked at a call center where I was one of probably like – I mean there were probably a couple thousand people who worked there, and I would bet there was less than 10 white people. Were they Vietnamese? No, African American.

No shit. Oh, yeah. And what were you guys doing were you doing collections no it was uh for the phone company it was um a telemarketer basically you know you were called up uh sbc you would call up people who had the telephone company that we worked for and you try to offer them call waiting call forwarding call oh remember that kind of stuff yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah crazy um do you use the um do you use the feature on the iphone where let's say like you and i were talking and then like someone else were to call on the phone and you merge people in, or would you ever like call two people? Like sometimes I'll be like, if I'm talking to like one person, someone else calls, I just merge them in. Like, even if it's like my,

let's say me and you were talking and my wife called, I might just merge her in and she'd be like, Hey, can you pick up some meat on the way home? And I'd be like, yeah, sure. But you're like, and she'd be, and she'd be like, hi. And then you'd be like, hi, Ms. Matosi. And she'd be like she'd be like hi and then you'd be like hi miss matosi and she'd be like hi josh that's the thing is i wouldn't say hey girl hey yeah what's up yeah yeah do you use that do you use the three-way do you do three-way on your phone not uh no i don't think i ever have no i mean i've done like facetime where you know you have like multiple people on a call but

never never like just straight phone calls where you're merging i think you're the only person i've ever even seen do it you see seals that you got all sorts of weird quirky shit like that would be too intimate to you for you a three-way and you guys you don't use emojis probably either right very rarely it's definitely like i've started using i don't use emojis um like on my own to where i'm like popping up a little picture at the bottom but i'll do the you know when you click on it and you can like heart it ha ha thumbs up thing yeah you know i'll do that now but that's that's about as heavy as it goes i was on a group text the other day and someone's uh someone said something and dave castro gave it a thumbs up like the kind of and i couldn't even fucking believe it but it was still kind of like still like the dickhead seal thing that you guys

do like that's like as much as he could be bothered even though like wow that's really emotional he's really made himself vulnerable with the thumbs up but on the other hand it's still like hey dude you probably should have said a little bit more than the thumbs up i think that was it that was all it needed to be said yeah oh my god it was around it was a thread that i'm on with uh tyson bajan travis bajan right travis is like yeah basically looks like my son's going to nfl and dave's like, that's pretty cool. Not like, holy fuck, you were right. I'm sorry.

I didn't believe in him all along. Yeah, that's what I saw. I saw the, the sports center thing that they did on his son. That was really cool. And Travis was on there. Can you fucking believe it? He, a division two quarterback. That's awesome.

And it looks like he's going to be the backup quarterback for the fucking chicago bears that's really cool um my son just started playing tackle football he just had his first game the other day i don't approve i know i didn't either really um i wasn't really ready for it but now i am and now i'm fired up and so i watched the swamp kings did you watch that documentary on uh tim tebow no good the florida gators oh my gosh like it got me fired up okay so tell me tell me how that happens i want to know how you it's like one thing like i'm at the beach here right and i and me and the boys we we walk three miles and it's 95 degrees and we go by a fucking shaved ice stand and they're like can we get shaved ice and i break and when i ordered i'm like hey dude as much sugar as you would put in normally in one shaved ice put that much but divide it over three like i want you to make it so i hate you and think i got ripped

off i don't even care if you just give them ice do not but i still broke but i still broke how do you break to let your boy play football knowing for for those of you who don't know, if you don't have kids, the only thing you want to protect on your kid is his head. Yeah, pretty much. You're just like – that's the worst. You'd rather like they lose an arm. You don't want the head taking any shots. Yeah, true. He's in eighth grade.

He's older. He's not like a sixth or seventh grade. I mean his mom. We talked for years, and we kept saying no, no, no because he's been wanting to sixth or seventh grade I mean his mom we talked for years and we kept saying no no no you know because he's been wanting to play tackle football since like sixth grade um and uh you know I was like no no no and then um finally in eighth grade it was just like okay if he if he wants to play football I'm not going to stop him from playing football uh so if he's going to go into high school I kind of wanted to have him just kind of one year under his belt. Cause he's played flag football for two years now. This is third year playing football. And, um, what position? Well, I mean, right now they have a Matt fullback and a middle linebacker. Uh, he's not a big guy, but he's really athletic. And so I, you know, he's kind of being underutilized

for his athleticism, but his coaches don't know him. And I kind of feel bad. I mean, it's on us, but I'm also not that upset because I protected his head, like you were saying for two years. And so basically it just came to a point where like me and his mom were like, okay, like he's going to play tackle football again, high school. If that's what he wants to do, I'm not going to stop him. Let's give him one year, and then we got him a better helmet than he was issued. We went out and bought a nicer helmet. We're doing everything that we can, but at the end of the day yeah you know it's if he wants to play football i'm gonna let him play football i'm not gonna stop him from doing that i don't think that it's uh

i don't think that it's something that i can be like no you just can't play it i don't want to be that dad you know i'd let him play hockey i'd let him play anything else right and there's a lot of contact let him fight you let him wrestle yeah exactly i let him write let him box right let him put boxing gloves on exactly so why not if he wants to he wants to play football you know that's what his buddies are doing that's what he's into right now i'm all about it so um i just you know i held off as long as i could and me and his mom both just decided that we're we were okay with him doing one year of it you know so before high school um so it's not a school league it's like a um it's like a city league or something or

well it's technically it is it's it's under his middle school's team name but okay they uh i don't think they're actually affiliated with the school i think it is more of a i don't even know what to call it little league football you know fullback and linebacker those are defense defense dudes fullback is offense and then so he plays both sides they're kind of a smaller team uh because they live in a smaller town and so he plays uh fullback and fullback is like a it's basically the guy who stands in front of the running back and blocks and they'll do okay short short uh like short down i thought that was a tight end that's not a tight end is a fullback and a tight end the same guy now the tight end is a more of like a wide receiver position and they're on the line and they're on they're actually on the

line tight ends the white guy the wide receiver the black guys well they're both they can be either you know what the sport's not divided by race like that they're not no you don't have you don't have to be i haven't watched since the 80s no so yeah like yeah, but fullback is more of like a blocking position. Did you just picture where you're like, no, I know three black tight ends, and I actually know three wide receivers. Yeah, exactly. All right, fine. Fuck you.

I know, man. When I think of tight end, I'll tell you, I think of Todd Christensen from the Raiders. Okay. White guy. And when I think of wide receiver, I think of Jerry Rice from the 49ers. What about Antonio Gates? No, I don't know who that is. Don't get crazy. He's a tight end from the Chargers. What about Antonio Gates? No, I don't know who that is. Don't get crazy.

He's a tight end from the Chargers. Don't get all crazy on me. Christian McCaffrey. You want to talk about breaking any stereotype right there? He's a white running back. Don't know him. How many Asian football players do you know? Islanders don't count.

There's a kicker for Notre Dame. Really? Notre Dame was Asian a couple years ago. I can't remember his name. What's his name? Did he have an Asian name? I don't remember. Lee or some shit?

He better have or I'm not believing it. I'm so terrible with names. I can't remember what his name was, but he was the kicker for Notre Dame. Hey, I want to come back to your kids because I'm very curious about – I want to talk more about football. football but uh someone said to me that the reason why basketball players make more money from sponsorship than football players i don't even know if that's true but that's what this person started was because football players wear helmets and so you can't see them and basketball go ahead there's also more players on the field for for nfl right there's more football players on a field uh the money gets distributed right there's more football players on a field

uh the money gets distributed over a wider variety of guys are vying for the same pile of sponsorship versus basketballs we've got like yeah i mean i don't know i have zero like i'm not i don't have any idea i don't know many football players or basketball players in the nba or nfl and um so i really have no idea but i feel like it's probably a little harder to, uh, you know, if you're not a position player, like a quarterback, running back, wide receiver, tight end, or a big name defensive player, I bet it's pretty hard to get, you know, some big sponsorships from, because yeah, you're right. You don't, you don't, they don't see your face. They don't know who you are sometimes.

And then where NBA, you got five guys on the court and no mask on, no helmet on. And they are more out there, right? Like they're more exposed. Like people know who they are just by their face. Where I think the NFL is probably a little bit like that. NHL is probably a little like that too. Oh, I was wondering because they wear helmets too. Mm-hmm.

I was wondering what's going on because the comments stopped. And I was like, how come people aren't making fun of Josh? And yeah, because the comments have stopped. Well, that sucks. I mean, I can see him over here. I just can't pull him up anymore. Jeffrey Birchfield, God that man's always there baby yeah support support oh my god and uh harry harry balls on you i searched uh two i searched uh in google two goats talking and it brought me to this page god damn you're good harry oh my god how come i can't bring this shit up what is

I'll answer some questions. Let's go. Oh, okay. The comments are back. Thank you. God. Did Josh fuck anything up? You didn't say anything racist or controversial or such. Josh Nelly from the Looney Prat.

Okay. Okay. We're back. Good. Okay. Here we go. Sean Lenderman. We got to catch up. Navy uses the hell out of the fullback. They. Okay. Here we go. Sean Lenderman. We got to catch up. Navy uses the hell out of the fullback. They run a ton of triple option. That's right.

Really? You know football like that? You even know about the Navy football team? Navy football team basically runs the ball almost every play. They actually just played Notre Dame, yes, on Saturday, and they got their aces kicked by my my boys my nd boys oh look at a patrick clark datning gwen i think that's a korean yeah it might be him well that ningwen name is like fuck like it was not in gwen it's it's win right oh whatever

however you pronounce it you could feel because we had we had i had a chief wind in the teams oh you did? Joe Westland, white boys are really not only – Joe Westland, white boys are really only not allowed – What kind of fucking sentence is that? Can you read? No, can he write? He's from fucking Omaha. Who writes like that?

White boys are really only not? How about you just learn how to read? White boys are really only – Hey, top to bottom, left to right. Josh made it to the third grade that's right white boys are are really only not allowed at corner what a mess a ronnie lot was a linebacker 49ers i don't know if that's true but i know that he tackled people mike allstott that's the best the best the fullback right there that I always remembered he's for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers um so so your son is getting good uh he's playing team sport he's getting good athletic training

he's getting to go to the practice he's learning the sport he's getting the team camaraderie all that shit and he's getting fitter and but he he's not getting the play time that maybe he would want or you would want. But Pardew is kind of like, good. He's getting everything I like about the sport, except he's not having to take the shots to the dome. Yeah, I mean, he did do – he also does kick return too, which is a – that's kind of – you don't make it hit pretty hard on that one. And then I would like to see him at running back.

He's so fast and agile and quick, but they have a, they have another good running back too. So, and the kid's been on the team for three years. And so, but that's good, man. I want him to have to struggle. I want him to have to work to get stuff. I don't want everything just handed to him. And so I've been telling him that I'm like, he's like, he's like,

you know, I, he was trying out for running back and they put him at full back. And I'm like, that's good, man. Like, Hey, no, I, he was trying out for running back and they put him at fullback. And, um, I'm like, that's good, man. Like, you're not just going to walk onto anything and get handed the shit that you want. Sometimes you're gonna have to work for it and show, show your coaches. And I'm like, so guess what? There's only two times that you can show your coaches anything about you as an athlete. And that's going to be in games and at practice. So, so you got to go hard no matter what, right? There's no time off. There's no taking it easy during practice. If you want to show your coaches that you want to play something else, you better show them that you're capable of doing it.

And to do that, you got to do it at practice. And those kids, he's also competing against kids who the coach knows, is known for forever. For a couple of years, yeah. Oh, God. My YouTube, my stream yard is all fucked up. This is crazy. Hashtag nobody cares. cares yeah that's probably true

I just feel bad because I can't pull up anyone's comments on my screen it says no one's watching and the comments have stopped so weird alright fine fuck it I just look over here on youtube there are people watching though I think right it's not just me and you hanging out.

Probably just the two of us. Well then, hey, here's something I want to ask you. What's the deal with good dudes? Are good dudes and Paper Street, have they teamed up? Yeah, we're kind of like teaming up. It's still obviously going to be good dudes coffee, but Gabe is kind of taking over operations with good dudes did you guys ask me about that before you talk to my guy i don't ever have to ask you about anything

because that's the thing i noticed that the games yeah we saw we had yeah we had some cold brew there yeah that was cool yeah we are cool i know you're yeah you must have felt like a real boy again being at the games get with your camera behind the scenes oh man have you released any of that stuff no not really it may be some like photos and some clips and shit but um uh we did someone has started putting it together and i saw the funniest clip the other day it's uh it's in the it's in the underground in madison and it shows don and dave talking and then like dave has to take off to go do something and he goes to give fucking don knuckles and don's already distracted and like looking at something else so he just leaves dave hanging and dave's like dave just leaves right but but it's those nuances that like no one would ever

get to see yeah so someone said the guy who's putting it together sent me a clip of that and we all started laughing and there's or there's like i saw another clip where dave's uh trying to drive the the gator and he can't get it in reverse and shit and it's all fucked up and uh nicole christiansen's like just mouthing like to me he can't drive or shit he's right it's it's so funny but it's all those moments that you know people i think are going to want to see and yeah for sure it's the fun stuff man like i actually did that that's funny i dropped a youtube video a video yesterday and it's me and my son i'm training my sons actually for sport more sorry sorry will you

Good to see you guys mending relationships and moving forward. I didn't realize that. I didn't realize we had a bad relationship. Oh, okay. Now I know. Good. Good. Well, thank you, Dave. I appreciate you. I'm helping facilitate our friend coming on here and helping us facilitate. We were just about to hit a big hiccup. Yeah. We're about to get into it. Open up the open up the doors. Hey Dave, Josh was just asking me if I work with for CrossFit again.

He heard I did the behind the scenes. wanted to know if I had been hired back You definitely have not been hired back I know you think I think you want people to think that But that is not the case Hey, I'm pulling into the airport, let me go Okay, I'm pulling into your mom Okay, bye. Okay.

Hey, dude, this fucking guy released a video on his YouTube like, hey, I'm not affiliated with CrossFit is not paying him, not affiliated with him and doesn't endorse his shit. Like, just straight up fuck you to the world for any misconception.

And Don sent out an email to all the staff at HQ basically letting them know like he is not back. About you. Yeah. Oh, gotcha. That's funny. The most toxic man in CrossFit is not back. I can see that.

Dude, it was – I had so much fun. I bet. I bet it was. Dude, athletes were – yeah. I bet they were like stoked to see you. Dude, people were loving on me so hard. It was great. It was great.

It's probably what you needed. You've needed that for years. It's probably why you seem a little more chill now than like before where you're just like so fired up, amped up. You just you weren't getting that attention. You know, daddy wasn't putting his arms around you and telling that he loved you. It's not that's not exactly. Yeah, I think it was. it's not that's not exactly yeah i think it was why can't you go with something like uh you were insecure because you were a little bit on the outside and now you've been accepted so why does

it have to be a daddy story because we all know uh you're um back to your son um what about your younger son how are you going to stop him from doing the old well he plays football well he doesn't get to play until eighth grade if he wants to play okay and so i mean it's like i can't older brother's playing you know it's funny at first he was like no he's like i don't want he's like dad i don't think i want to play football i'm like that's cool man you don't have to play football you don't have to do exactly like do exactly what your brother did um you know i want you to be you and figure out what you want to do for yourself. And I think now he's actually watching it.

And my little guy is really into working out. He loves. He's got goals in the gym. He wants to hit certain numbers on certain lifts. And he wants to get big. Because he's a little bit thinner. lifts and just, he wants to get big because he's, uh, he's a little bit thinner. Um, then my older son is built more like me, like straight out of the, you know, out of the womb, he was, he had muscles on his, on his body. And my little guy, he's, uh, he's just a little leaner. And so he's

like, he's like, I don't want to be that way. I want to be strong, you know, and which is cool. It's cool to see. And so, um, yeah, it's, uh, he's like getting a little more fired up now watching, like watching the first game and stuff. And I think, uh, I actually, we were sitting, we got, we go out and we have, we get sun in the morning, you know, get sun in our face right out, right off the bat. And he's like, I'm like, I'm like, what are you thinking? You thinking you still want to play? You want to play football at some point or not still? No. And he's like, I don't know, maybe. And so we'll see. I don't care if he's doing basketball.

Is he doing basketball? Yeah, they both they both play basketball. Both play baseball. Baseball is like their, I guess, main focus. But it's definitely not to that point where we're like just one sport. I'm like, I won't allow that just yet. Like I want to play multiple sports. I want to becoming well-rounded athletes. And so, uh, so yeah, right now he, I think he's just

bored too right now because he's actually taking a season off. Cause we, we had a long summer of baseball and before that he was, he did basketball and he did, and then he did spring basketball too. So at the beginning of baseball, he was doing baseball and basketball and so it was kind of a lot like there was zero days off and he was uh definitely like needing a little bit of uh rest but now he's like okay i'm tired of just hanging out i want to be playing a sport again which um you're you obviously took crossfit to the highest level but would you want that you had a full life before you did that yeah and would you want that for your kid like people ask me hey would you want your kid to be a crossfit games athlete i'm like absolutely not but the caveat to that would be well yeah if they if he was in the navy first and he lived a whole i mean it's a completely

different life you know what i mean? It's like – and then – Yeah. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. I think that if that's something that they get back – It's too hard, dude. It's too hard and too much work. Okay, pussy. Really?

You start doing – It's too hard. By this I mean – okay, hard is not the right word. Hard is what everyone says about everything. Okay, let me – What the hell are you talking about? You're right. You're right.

That was a horrible description. I don't want my kid from the age of 16 to 28 to only see the inside of CrossFit Invictus and wherever they decide to put. What a terrible term. What a terrible gym to say. CrossFit mayhem. I don't want him to see the inside of CrossFit mayhem from the time he's 17 to he's 28.

Do you know what I mean? I mean, he's going to be stupid. That's not true. You think Justin Medeiros is dumb? Well, if he stays inside of just... He's been in CrossFit for years. How old is he?

I don't know if I had to guess. 24, 25. I would think that maybe he's not that worldly. I wish he would have used someone else. I like him. Can we use someone else? No, that's who we have to use. He was a teenage athlete too. He did the team division.

Right. I like the Colton. Do you think he's struggling right now? Justin Medeiros? Oh, for sure financially no no um i would have zero issues if my son both became very passionate about crossfit uh saying hey i would i i wouldn't there's not a – there's not something that they would come up to me. That's not true. Most things – What sport? What sport?

Not a sport. I can't think of a sport that I'd be like, no, I don't want you to do that. If that's something that they really, truly believe they loved and they wanted to dive into it. I would personally be more interested if my kid was like, hey, dude, I'm really into sewing. I'm like, cool. What are you going to do? He's like, I want to get a sewing machine, and I'm going to fucking dedicate a few years to it, and I'm going to start sewing my own fucking clothes. Nothing wrong with that, yeah.

Yeah, with fucking – I don't know. It just seems more – So why are you hating on the sport that gave you your notoriety, and all you do is have a camera in front of you? I know, right? Well, the thing is i get to meet all these different people and and uh i get to cherry pick i get to pick interview the guy who was the navy seal and learn from him i get to interview the guy who's the pig farmer while he's also doing crossfit but there is this there is this um there is this stereotype that i hold

in my head of these athletes that are just 10 years of working out. What? It should be the years where they're like walking barefoot in Afghanistan meeting people. You know what I mean? Or like climbing Machu Picchu. You know what I mean? They should be like young and exploring. But there's also –

Instead of just in the gym banging. There's also a shelf life to being an athlete, right? And so you're saying that there should be, they should be doing something else, but if that's their true passion, who the fuck are you to, who are you to tell them what their passion should or shouldn't be? Right.

If it's CrossFit, it's CrossFit, man. I fucking, dude, I owe so much to CrossFit. Like what, what it's offered to me,

what it's done for me. But I think that, but yours was CrossFit for you was a facet. True. Some part of it, yes. Not a – although it did become all-encompassing at times, it was a facet. Yeah, I mean I used it as a tool to join the Navy, to get myself prepared for being in the military. join the navy to get myself prepared for being in the military um but heal from to heal from injuries to make money to share with your kids to get life lessons i mean it was like so much yeah there's a lot of different things that cross has done for me and uh i would never steer my son

away or anybody away from if they want to if they had a dream or goal to go to the crossfit games because it's so much for me. There's not a lot. I've done some cool shit in my life. Being on that floor of the CrossFit Games is up there. I hear you. I won't poo-poo it.

Sorry, I can't pull up your guys' money shit. I'm so sorry. Josh, that doesn't mean you should stop giving money. Josh, are you bringing back your Pay him shirts they have not been available for a long time are you fucking kidding me those aren't available yeah we uh we got some coming right now they should be here in the next week or so you hate your management do you want to do you want let's get him on let's call him right now and get him on who is it cooper yeah coop you want me to call him and yell at him a little bit no we got we got him coming we we had uh some other things we have a shirt that's out there

there is a there is a pay him shirt that's up there right now um the liberty or death one that we still have quite a few on that we put on sale uh josh is the good dude uh um hard is a chance to grow hard is a chance top to bottom left or a chance. Top to bottom, left to right. We talked about this. Josh is the good dude, period. Hard stuff. Hard is a chance to grow. Oh, I see. He's referencing the fact that I was saying that CrossFit is too hard. Yeah, that was stupid the way I said that. I just don't think it's um oh logan

ewing as a former teenage competitor i think it's gone overboard now they're all homeschooled and do nothing but crossfit just to uh quit at 19 years old moderation is uh uh is key nothing in moderation everything is extreme i agree fuck moderation thank you logan that's a roman actually put a but i'm gonna put a pot i'm gonna put a uh post up about that the other day balances balance will never make get you to greatness can't be balanced balance is fucking is your is people's way of being like oh i need to be balanced just Just an excuse. And you say the other day, Oh, your Instagram account is, uh, has grown just a little bit.

You're not frozen anymore. Yeah. It's, it's, it kind of, it has, it started to grow for a little bit. Now it's kind of,

I think, uh, you know, I get, I get, I get people who like to not help me let, let me grow. Oh,

over at the, at the, at the mothership. I think so. i think so i think so my kids instagram account has had the same number of uh followers for like three years yeah and i post on it every day i must not be i don't know what i'm doing obviously it's not very good yeah uh the um there's a jujitsu academy here in uh newport beach newport beach called um aoj art of jiu-jitsu and they have a huge kids program and um they have one section of the mat

when i take my kids there because we're visiting and my kids are training there they have one section of the mat that is homeschooled kids. Oh, really? Yeah, who do two to three classes a day, every day. I think that's awesome. Yeah, and guess what? I mean, I see how much time is fucking wasted at my kids' school when they – well, especially during COVID when they were home. And you're like, Jesus, this is fucking insane. Like my kids could be doing so much better shit with their time. And guess what?

Those kids are uh really good at jiu-jitsu i guarantee they are yeah like uh i was because they don't send their sit uh sit and waste time listening to their fucking classmates go around say their name and um you know what their fucking favorite color of the wall picture the wall is i was like i was like i just sent i just heard my kids for an hour and a half literally listen to all the other kids in the class talk about what their fucking name was and what color like their favorite color or something stupid like that and i'm like this this is this is what we're teaching our kids at school right now this is great that was on a zoom call you heard it's insane man like um the amount of learning that's

actually going on at school is fucking slim to none but when you go to these people's instagram account i went there the art of jiu-jitsu in their competition class and this is southern california right this is like costa mesa a hot bed of fucking jiu-jitsu yeah and uh all the kids there took gold at their last tournament all eight kids in the in the comp class all took gold nice i was just at the the tampa bay games um the fit fest out there in tampa bay and there was a little jiu-jitsu so it was like the crossfit competition was the biggest part of it and then there was some strongman stuff there was uh olympic weightlifting there was um these dudes called like, these fucking, the Tate or not.

Fuck CT Fletcher's CT Fletcher's guys where they're like, they bench press like 700 pounds, 800 pounds. They do like two 25 where it was cool. It was a cool event. And then there was a jujitsu tournament in the back and it was like all levels too. It was like a lot of little guys up to, you know, men. I've never been to a jujitsu tournament in the back and it was like all levels too it was like a lot of little guys up to you know men i've never been to a jiu-jitsu tournament it's pretty wild it's cool uh yeah

the they're kind of chaos like there's there's a sense when you go to a jiu-jitsu tournament that it's like a money-making operation for someone yeah and of course you know there have to be age division belt division and weight division so you can only imagine it's like – Yeah, that's a lot, right? Dude. Like a wrestling tournament, you got age and weight. You don't have to have skill level. Hundreds of divisions, dude.

It's fucking absolutely nuts. And then, yeah, it's crazy. But I do like taking my kids to them. It's chaos um it's uh never have i gone to a jiu-jitsu tournament where all three of my boys actually participated you know there's always one that cries or gets hurt or you know what i mean there's always of course man how old are the boys now uh six six and eight nice yeah they're getting up there and are they homeschooled homeschooled nice yeah um

they're done with their school by nine or ten in the morning every day and then and then i just then i take them out then it's pe just the rest of the day i mean if they if they yeah that's exactly it right like it's probably like two hours of learning in a fucking eight hour school day and when these guys sit down and do their school work they sit down and do their school work there's no like yeah i don't even know if they think it is i don't know what they think it is i should ask them it's kind of weird when i go out and people are like what grade are you in to them and i'm like fuck i hope you know the answer you know what i mean do you think at a certain point you'll put them into school for uh sports and stuff like that no you don't even think high school nothing no really yeah they're they're i can't tell what's gonna

happen right because i live in santa cruz but and i say this probably with with i probably need way more humility in this but like like they're already like it's hard to go anywhere where there's anyone better than them at anything you know what i mean they're the bet would go to any skate park i go to they're the best any jiu-jitsu tournament they're winning the gold any tennis turn like they're just the things that we do we do every single day multiple times a day and they you know what i mean it's just they're just savages and when they're in the backyard catching lizards they're the best at catching lizards it's just what they do they just don't they're never and they're nice kids because they're never in a like they trip on other kids because other kids are kind of mean right yeah get around a lot of

kids in like the measuring contest and just like they don't even they don't have any of that so in one hand maybe that the thing that they are missing out is on socializing that they're just not they're just not – like here's this – I don't think there's anything wrong with that. Your kids don't need to be assholes. I mean there's no assholes in the world. So they went to this AOJ. They've been training there twice a day while we're here in Newport, right?

Two classes a day there. And when the classes leave, you bow out and you shake hands with your coach. I have not seen one other kid shake the coach's hand or make eye contact. They slap the hand and go to the next coach. My kids are the only ones I've seen out of fucking 100 kids do that. Wow. That's crazy. Oh, it's crazy. And my kids even say, they're really in a rush to get out of there.

You know what I mean? Well, that's because they have to fucking go sit at school for eight hours a day. Probably. Probably. Probably. Why would you go to this Tampa thing, but you didn't go to the games? Hotspot. Why weren't you at the games?

Everyone wanted to see you. Why weren't you at the games? You know, I actually, I thought in my mind I was going to go to the games, and then it just kind of snuck away from me. Just other shit? Like, oh, I'm going to go. That'll be fun. I'm going to hang out.

Yeah, I wanted to go and kind of have something going on there, do some sort of activations and stuff like that, but I just didn't. I just, to be honest, I had poor planning on my part. And then the Tampa Bay games, that happened. Chris, the guy who runs that um he called me up quite a while ago we set that up so so that was that yeah and when you say activations the games mean like

release a new coffee um release a new shirt like do something so it makes it worth your while have something like yeah like have a purpose there have Have a purpose. And I just love me. I'm Josh Bridges. Yeah. And I just go there and, you know, watch people work out. I mean, don't get me wrong. I love watching the games. I watched, I watched it all weekend.

And I, you know, my head, I was like, I should have been there. And next year we will be, you know, but like doing workouts and shit like that. Right. Like that's, that shit's fun. I like, you know, working out with the community and with the community and basically being part of it. Yeah, bring coffee, bring whatever, and just hang out and have a good time. The camps. Are you still doing the camps?

Yeah, but we don't have any schedules right now. We will schedule one probably here soon for the end of this year. Has life gotten too good for you? What the fuck is going on? I'm getting married. No paying shirts, no games, no camps. I'm getting married, dude games no camps i'm getting married dude oh when is that soon like in a couple weeks and so are you nervous when you say that with like some apprehension you all in no no i'm all in yes um just busy you know like getting shit ready um and

then do kids sports man like right well that is true every time i feel like i whenever we touch base you're always either with your kids or at some kids event you're like hey i'm dry i can't talk i'm driving around it's like it doesn't it doesn't stop man like i like i'm not exaggerating when like during the summer we didn't have a summer because every weekend was eight to twelve hours at a baseball field every like saturday and sunday both days like and i'm not exaggerating one bit uh anybody that has has a kid that plays travel baseball knows that i'm i'm not telling the i'm not lying um you're driving feeding them or they're playing exactly and uh you know and then so the summer got summer just kind of like got back and we had we had like four travel trips like we went to

cooperstown new york for like nine days um went to phoenix went to albuquerque you know uh went into the mountains for a mountain tournament you know it's just like right now my life is those boys and you know making sure that they uh having cool experiences and growing as people and athletes and um you know for me like obviously i'm still doing my thing but it's just not like the priority are you still the thing that stuck with me the most the last time you were on the show is that you said you cook a steak for your boys every single day you still doing that yeah man we still eat a lot of steak god you're a stud i bought a whole fucking i bought a whole cow man

and we're like like three months ago four months ago we probably have like a quarter of it left like we eat a lot of red meat uh joe joe westerlin uh it's not even baseball season and i spent my entire sunday yesterday on a baseball field yeah son yeah it happens man it's nuts it is base travel baseball is it's a lot you know and it's a lot, you know, and it's cool. Is it a money-making thing? Probably some of it is, but they're getting to play. They're getting some cool experiences. They're traveling. I don't care. I want someone to get rich off the Jiu-Jitsu tournaments, right? Like, yeah, good on you. Let someone make money off the kids' tournaments. Yeah, I mean, someone's going to at some point, you know, I mean, and because it's probably-

You said it like it was bad, like some like- Right.ocus that was no man that's that's where we that's where we live baby that's where we live um and so yes it's it's cool it's fun it's just a lot and uh that definitely takes up a lot of my time and i'm not complaining one bit i love it you know yeah of course it's you you only do what you want to do, right? Yeah, man. Like I don't, I don't have a boss. And you want to spend time with your sons. Exactly. I want like my dad, like we didn't have a relationship and, um, you know, I remember being a kid and being like seeing other, seeing my buddies with their, with their dad and being like, you damn i wish i had that and so like for me it was you know it's been so much and maybe i'm going overboard in the other opposite direction but

i'm okay with that you know yeah do it me too i never i never want my my kids to be like i'd rather my kids be like oh my dad was a fucking you know he kind of pushed me too hard then my dad didn't teach me shit um uh tra that, I think it's ESPN or HBO or someone has reached out to him and said like, hey, we want to do a piece on helicopter dads. Dads who are like overbearing in their kids' lives. And he said, so they're going to do it on me. And he said, and they're looking like for like little side characters.

Will you do it? I said, fuck yeah, I'll do it. I'm so proud of being a helicopter dad. I'm more than like, the tennis coach will be like, hey dude, you know you're the only parent here watching your kids play tennis. I'm like, motherfucker,

I had these kids so that I could watch them. Like I want to, I, yeah. He's like, well, they cry when you walk away. I go, well, that's their problem. They figure that shit out. But what my kids don't do is they don't hit the ball i've also seen the tennis coach josh um kids hit the ball and then look over at their parents and the tennis coach will come over and be like hey dude you can't be here you can't stand here my kids don't do that you know what i mean they're not like constantly looking to me for approval after every hit right but i'm there

like i i came there to watch you move i find your stroke fucking beautiful i find your serve beautiful i i don't i when i go to jiu-jitsu tournament i'm not like over at the snack shack while they're wrestling i'm fucking biting my nails losing my mind yeah i think there's a difference between a helicopter parent is a bad like a term that you probably don't want and i don't think that that's what you are i think that there are parents who i would consider a helicopter parent who's like just super overprotective and don't allow their kids to live life right where obviously you're not doing that right right helicopter parent is like this protective person that puts their kid in some bubble wrap and

fucking like lets them walk around the world without getting, I don't know, hurt or live real experiences. I don't consider myself that. I am definitely very involved with my kids, and I want to be involved, and I want them to – I want them to be like – I want them to be their own men, but I also want them to be like realize that, hey, if they need something, dad's there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So. Yeah, I want them to feel like realize that hey if they need some dad's there yeah yeah yeah so yeah yeah i i want them to feel very comfortable with me to a point where i'd be like hey dude you're not giving like shouldn't they have friends to say that to no i'm here i'm good yeah you tell me you tell

me whatever you want exactly man yeah same what about phone uh for your uh is does your oldest want a phone they have phones now they have oh josh what have you done i know it's i would definitely like oh no i try to limit them as much as possible like they don't have any social media none whatsoever like do they have a browser how do you keep them away from porn don't they want to look up like if i was a little kid i'd be looking at crazy shit dude i would be looking at crazy shit and you know i mean like they they definitely have restrictions on their phones where they can't look at a lot of stuff I would be looking at crazy shit. And you know what I mean? Like they, they definitely have restrictions on their phones where they can't look at a

lot of stuff. Um, but I'm sure there's still ways to figure it out, but their mom can actually see like what he sees on his phone. And so it's, it's, uh, it's not as easy as it sounds.

There's definitely ways to still be like, yeah, he's probably got a VPN already. Right yeah he's probably got a vpn already right he's probably got a burner phone yes yes but uh no yeah like so it's just for us it's kind of like now it's kind of a little bit necessary where they're off doing sports and sometimes we're not there and sometimes we're not with them but you know you can also you also know where they're at you know so it's nice um let's see that and man, like you also have to start to trust your kids, right? You start to start to give them the rope, you know, let that, let that rope out a little bit and, um, let them become adults

and let them have to make decisions on their own and not make the decisions for them. And so, you know, I, we, we held off as long as possible. Well, not as long as possible. That that's a bad way to put it, but we held off, you know, um, for a while. And then, uh, when I felt like my little, my older guy, he got his last year and then my little guy got his a year later. Um, and so, you know, kind of like tried to make it be like the same age when they got their phones. Um, and so, you know, kind of like tried to make it be like the same age when they got their phones. Uh, and you know, they're definitely restricted to time on it and no social media and things like that. But yeah, man, like sometimes you just gotta let the rope out, like let them, let them be men and make this, that's kind of my goal in life, right. To show them the proper way or show them,

give them habits, right. Let them build habits and be, have to make decisions on themselves for themselves when I'm not there. And that's what I keep telling them. I keep telling them, like, Mike, like, like, yeah, you can eat shit. You can eat junk. Like I could, I could let you eat all the cookies and trash that you want all the time. But guess what? At some point, I'm not going to be the one they're telling you, you can or can't have this. And you're going to have to make the decision yourself. And you know, and it's, it's just getting to that point, right? Like my kids are 13 and 11, like Jack's going to be in high school next year. So crazy. I know, man, I know he was at that.

You ever think about homeschooling? I mean, not at this point, you know, I mean, you ever asked to be homeschooled? No, not them have ever jack is very social he likes his buddies he likes his friends nox is a little definitely a little more homebody he likes uh um he's a little more quiet and can definitely do shit on his own and be happy where jack's like needs buddies kind of needs what about your what about your next kid you're gonna have are you gonna homeschool that one? We'll see. I don't know. I don't know if that's a – if we have another kid, we'll see.

We'll see. See that, guys? See that? That's a master interviewer. I'll be like you. I'll be like 55 with a fucking eight-year-old. 51. 51. Crazy.

What's the – well, someone mentioned the crack pipe i found one time uh recently i was at the skate park right so when i'm at the skate when i when i go places with the boys i'll usually i'll scout the place right especially like skate park so while they're skating i walk around the skate park look at the ground for like bottle caps or rocks or i pick up all the trash i don't want them like hitting one of my kids one time dropped in on us like a 18 foot vert wall and then down at the bottom hit a bottle cap or something and flew off his board it's like the worst accident he's had so i do that and i was at this one skate park the other day and i went in the bathroom just to look around in case the kids there was a fucking crack pipe in there it's good times right there man yeah you ever seen a crack

pipe at one of your kids events or that i uh you ever seen a crack pipe at one of your kids events or that i uh you ever seen a crack pipe at one of your kids events come on when i was a kid we used to walk to school and uh when i was a kid i used to walk to school we did no we did josh bridges we did walk to school and um you know we lived we didn't live that far maybe i mean back in the day it felt like probably miles, but it was probably like 800 meters, maybe a half mile to school. But we lived in a pretty, you know, rough part of St. Louis. And I remember finding like, as you don't know, St. Louis is a shithole. Go on. In fact, and we lived in North County, which is like really shitty. north county which is like really shitty um and there was we used to find like needles and syringes on the way to school like on in the like like right next to the street and shit like that i

remember i remember that that as a kid you find so many that you weren't even shocked by them anymore or every time you saw one were you like oh my god or did you just get you get used to it no i think it was still kind of a shock when you found him it wasn't like uh it's like extreme or anything like that but yeah i definitely definitely stood out it stands out my mind i remember as a kid i don't remember much as a kid i've been shooting peptides for a couple months months oh that's that's what that's why you're glowing skin no i've been at the beach too much this last week but um uh and uh dude even when i see you have to shoot it with like a little insulin needle into my bicep where i'm shooting it this b BPC where I hurt my bicep.

And every time I do it, I look at the needle. I think like I get like I'm like some sort of hardcore drug addict. You know what I mean? Even like in 51, I'm like, oh my God, I have a needle. I sure as fuck don't let my kids see them. Yeah. Like it would be this horrible thing if they saw dad with a needle. I don't know why.

I'm not sure if it is or isn't, but in my mind, it's horrible. That's really funny because so after my knee surgery in 2019, I was on blood thinners, and I had to go home, and I had to give myself a blood thinner shot every day for like— Stomach? Yeah, and stomach. And it fucking hurt. But I remember feeling kind of weird because there would be days where I'd be like, hey, you know, asking my son, hey, will you grab my – because they're just like prepackaged needles with the medicine already in them. And I was like, I felt kind of weird doing it.

Grab me a Coors Light in my needles, please. Grab me a can, son. Dude, I fetched so many beers for my dad out of the fridge and my uncles so many yeah and then i remember like all of a sudden like in the ninth grade or something eighth grade watching tv and there would be like some like psa on how you shouldn't do that my motherfucker why are you showing this psa during a cartoon hour show my dad watches tv right exactly all you told me is now my dad's a piece of shit you know what i mean like i like going and getting him a beer makes you feel important yeah i'm helping i'm helping and then and then and then i would open it for him it was the kind where you you just tore the you would

tear the top the piece off right it was like just a and then yeah yeah old school cans yeah but was it bush was it bush uh you know he would drink he would drink uh cores they didn't have cores light back then and he would drink um i was real men back then you know it was it's a piss water and and then he would drink this one that was just in a yellow can and it just was there was this uh it was just generic it actually said generic and it just had a barcode on it no shit yeah crazy right yeah it just said generic yeah just beer it said beer i was like it was like a simpsons cartoon just beer beer exactly love it man what what's the worst um injury your one of your kids has sustained and uh did it change your perspective or or the way you treat them or the way you just you you did your parenting

there's been a few injuries nothing crazy the weirdest thing that happened was jack had i was actually on in i was in london doing uh one of the metcon releases and i get a call from that's the shoe the nike shoe yeah the nike shoe okay uh sorry and i get a call from for the three people who don't do crossfit who are listening i was kind of like you know like right nike metcon shoe which is the crossfit shoe the crossfit trainer um we were doing one of the releases there and i just remember like getting a phone call from my from their mom my ex-wife at the time and just being like jack's in the hospital and he has really high blood pressure and it like and then um and then i was like you're like no problem call

me later i'm just gonna finish this up with this shoe and so i'm like freaking out you know i'm all of a sudden your blood pressure was higher than his yeah exactly and i'm like i'm like tell me more what's going on like what's going on and like the doctors just didn't know they couldn't figure it out i'm like how did how did you even know that he had high blood pressure and she said he was he was just like jumping up and down on the couch and like he was just acting really weird it wasn't he wasn't. And so she took him to the hospital and yeah, like his blood pressure was like an insane number. I can't even remember what the numbers were, but they were like, for, it was like for, for an adult, it would have been like two 20 over like one 60 or something, something crazy. Right. And so, uh, so I immediately go to, you know, the people I'm

with and I'm like, Hey man, I gotta, I like, I gotta get on a plane right now and like go home. Like, I don't know what's going on. And the worst part about it was that was still when like you didn't have cell phones, you couldn't get like wifi on international travel planes yet. And so like, I was just so nervous. Um, and so scared that like, because I had 12 hours where i didn't have service i couldn't get contacts didn't know what the hell was going on so i'm like getting off like once i the plane landed in san diego you know turn my cell phone service on to like to find out what the fuck was going on and that was a really scary and we were in the hospital for uh i think it was like 14 days

um wow because his blood pressure blood like his blood pressure wouldn't come down i remember this now this was um i feel like it was like 2015 so he was like no he was like he was like five maybe okay i don't remember um it's the story before yeah i think maybe i might have told you the story but yeah it was it was crazy. And so for four, so we were in the hospital for, for two weeks, it was in a military hospital and every fucking day. So military hospitals are a little weird, right? You don't get assigned a doctor, right? You get the doctor of the day.

And so every fucking day, the doctor would come in and be like, it was almost like day one for 14 days. And I finally got to a fucking point. I was like, Hey, and they, I i mean they gave him every test under the book they were i mean there was one point where they put a catheter in him and he started screaming and the nurse was like he needs to calm down i looked at him i go you're putting a fucking tube where tube doesn't go you need to shut the fuck up and i was like i mean at this point you know we're like day 10 in at the at the hospital yeah and it was just a it was a rough experience they call security on you no they didn't um because they were using the wrong size

tube after that they realized like that's why he was getting so upset uh aren't you so glad you stood up for him yeah of course i was like there's times i didn't stand up for my kid when i'm like what the fuck was i thinking and i was like yeah always stand up i was like i was like fuck you i was like you need to i'm like i'm like he's five years old and you're putting a tube where a tube doesn't go you you would be the same way so shut the fuck up and um and i was just i was i was not i mean i was telling doctors i was like you need to get the fuck out of the room like like we're not here it's not day one this is day 12 day 13 like don't fucking come in here asking me what's going on with my son uh It was an experience.

And they finally, what they had to do was they just finally put him on a blood pressure medicine. It came down, and then they weaned him off the blood pressure medicine. And his blood pressure has never been the same. So I don't know if it was like a virus that he got. I mean, it's never gone back up. It's just back to normal now. Yeah, it's been back to normal ever since, and he's never had any issues. Oh, it was a virus.

It was something like that. He had some sort of infection, and he's never had any it was a virus it was something like that he had some sort of infection right probably something yeah it was something but they were testing him for everything and nothing was like showing up and so it must have been some sort of like that was like the only conclusion we ever came to because they had to go then he had to go to you know the special doctors to like figure out blood pressure like why and um is he off all that oh yeah yeah he's only he was only on it for like six months and then or that's behind you or three months yeah it was crazy uh other than that it was like not my my little guy broke his arm once and whatever it was kind of funny he comes in from a skateboarding accident he fell on a skateboard and and my mom's like my mom i

you know his grandma is like i think he broke his arm and i'm like mom shut the i'm like mom be quiet like he didn't break his arm he's just he's just hurt come on you're gonna get him agitated yeah i know and then i look at nox and i look at my little guy and i'm like i'm like what's wrong buddy like tell me what you think what's going on he goes i think i broke my arm my arm, dad. And I was like, all right, fine. So I take him to the emergency room and sure. She broke his arm. So I was like, okay, lesson learned when my, uh, my kid broke his elbow or his arm or something. So we go in and do the x-ray and they're like, his arm is broken. And then I'm like, but I'm like, I don't see it. And I'm looking at the x-ray. They're like, it's right there. I'm like, I don't see it. And they're like, it's right there. I'm like, well, do you see it? And they're like, well'm like i don't see it and i'm looking at the x-ray they're like it's right there i'm like i don't see it and they're like it's right there i'm like well do

you see it and they're like well we don't really see it either was it a bulge fracture that's what his was because their bones are so they're not fully developed like like if yeah that's the story they started telling me well you can't actually see it i'm like how the fuck do you know it's broken then right you just told me you can see it i'm looking at the fucking x-ray well it's broken i'm like dude that looks like a perfect bone to me yeah so so what they said was it was called a bone it's called a bulge break and where when they're younger like that what happens is the bone actually kind of like puffs out yeah and if it was if it was us that did what he did it would have been a like you would have seen a fracture like a crack where

when they're younger they're because it's their bones are um not as hard they're like i guess like more of like a cartilage i guess kind of thing uh so the bone will actually just bulge out and it's considered a bulge fracture oh interesting and that's what nox had hey have you ever had exertional um compartmental syndrome no no are you familiar with it uh compartmental syndrome? No. No. Are you familiar with it? Compartmental syndrome? Like it probably happens in the military a lot.

Like in like in calves, right? It happens in calves a lot? Yeah. It's like compartment syndrome, right? Yeah, compartment syndrome. Like there could be an explosion or something could drop on you, but basically it's trauma and then – explosion or something could drop on you but it basically it's trauma and then it's isn't it something isn't where like there's like a build-up and like it's not like the blood's not like getting coming like it's like they have to almost like release yeah wherever it is you won't have a pulse anymore okay anyway i don't know it all that well no so the other day my kid did 100 burpees

for time and his left arm started doing some weird shit, and I looked up compartmental. I thought maybe he had rhabdo or something, and it was just bugging him and throbbing, and it lasted for days. And eventually I was like, I wonder if this is exertional compartmental syndrome. I was just wondering if you knew. I've never heard of that from burpees. That's crazy. I've heard of like – He was going hard.

It was 100 degrees in the garage, and his record for 100 burpees was 420, and he wanted to break it. He did not break it. That's pretty good, man. That's 25 burpees. That's just over 25 burpees a minute. That's solid. And dude, and he was usually when he does burpees, he would like do them like fast burpees, and at like

40, I noticed his jackass was like doing strict burpees, like doing push-ups and shit. I'm like, oh, he's fucked. I just knew at that point. He got to like 50 doing push-ups and shit i'm like oh he's fucked i just knew at that point we got to like 50 burpees at two minutes i'm like he's fucked i knew oh my gosh that's funny man i made my kid that's not funny sorry um your kid guy you know is his arm better i think he's better i think he's i think he's better now it's been a week but but it is when my kid i was gonna say when my kids get injured it makes it my kid got really uh obby got kicked in the stomach one time in jiu-jitsu practice and fucked his bladder up. And he did not – he said his pee and shit was all weird for like eight months.

Like he just didn't feel comfortable down there. Sorry, not eight months, eight weeks. And so he wouldn't do tennis. He wouldn't do jiu-jitsu. He didn't want to do skateboarding. He didn't want anyone near him. He always needed to be near a bathroom. Like he was tripping.

That's weird. Yeah, I never got checked out. You never got checked out you never got checked out no but good for you would be a good dad i like that at that point you want to talk about not being a helicopter dad i like that at that point i'll figure this shit out at at oh actually that's not true i did take him to the doctor that's not true i did take him to the doctor i took him like two or three doctors take him to the doctor. I took him to like two or three doctors. That's actually – now that I think about it, I did. But I waited a while, a few weeks. I just remembered. Yeah, I actually did. But anyway, they never found anything. But at that point, I realized that's why when I go to jiu-jitsu tournaments and my kids cry or they don't compete or we go to the skate park and they don't want to do it or we go to – like at AOJ, my kids won't do both classes he'll only do one i don't even care as long as they're in the game as long as they're behaving as long as they sit on the mat as long as their respect as long as they're in the game they're at the skate park

you know watching that like i don't care i'm not i'm not i'm not uh because before i really wanted them to be the best at everything you're gonna be the best skateboarder you're gonna now i don't even give a fuck the pressure's off i do not want an injured kid i want a healthy kid yeah and you know what i mean i mean he's not gonna sit there on the ipad yeah but but um and and it's and it's working you know what i mean once a month the kid will you get to the skate park and you just won't skate but the other 29 days i think it's definitely intelligent and it's like what you said earlier trust him i trust him okay i trust you you're not doing it today fine you're not doing today it's not like some sort of like thing that's like you're missing weeks you know right and exactly man like i think parents get so over the top but they think their kids have to be the best and the first and the first and the best right

everything and it's like man you're going to develop it's different times and i think that as long as your kid's growing and you're seeing like progression, that's all that really matters. Hey, um, I want to ask you a couple of things about rogue. Um, are you, are you going to the rogue invitational? I am. Um, the thing is, I think I have a, I think I have a, uh, Oh yeah.

don't ask um if it's uh heavy more heavy lifting traditionally like rogue would is known for exactly like that don't ask that question sure don't ask um is there any new implements being introduced at the rogue don't ask that don't ask it i going to go through a few more that you're not supposed to ask here. Okay, good. Hey, are you going to – okay, how about this? Were you involved in the – how are you involved? Are you friends with Bill and Katie? Start something big.

Are you friends with – okay, are you friends with Bill Henninger? Do you know who Bill Henninger is? I know who they are, yes. I would consider them friends. And do you have them in your phone? Could you call them? Yes. Okay.

And you are attending Rogue. Yes. And it doesn't conflict with your wedding? No, it's not until October. I don't remember the exact dates, but it late october basically like halloween weekend i believe okay and um and you will be in attendance i'll be there will you be on the field of play yeah we're doing uh legends again yes oh you're gonna do that yeah same one as one before. Oh, I thought you were more in an administrative position with Rogue, the event. No more questions, man.

Jesus Christ. Oh, I see. There could then be a conflict of interest. No, because there's no winner of the Legends. The Legends is just like a showcase. You know Jason's going to be bummed if you know the workouts before him. He's very competitive, this Jason Khalifa. But it's just like a showcase you know jason's gonna be bummed if you know the workouts before i mean he's very competitive this jason but it's all it's team it's team events typically so it doesn't matter we're good all right all right and you can take the smoke are you excited

about it it's gonna be a fun event god please ask josh something about the event it could call her hi please ask josh something about rogue. Go ahead. Anything about Rogue? Yeah, any questions? Josh is here representing Rogue. I'm not here to do it. Shut the fuck up. You'll mean any questions you have that Bill and Katie were unable

to answer there in the Seychelles right now and so they sent Josh. All of this is false. Don't ask me anything about Rogue. From Canada. Go ahead. I appreciate it. Well, I'll tell you what. My favorite shirt is a Josh Bridges shirt from Rogue. Well, thank you, sir. I appreciate that. Just quick. It's funny.

I was just emceeing at a CrossFit competition up here in Canada, just a local event. And we were kind of just going through a lot of like the way, you know, we're getting back into, you know, way CrossFit is kind of climbing up again and the competitions are wanting to come back. And, you know, it's been amazing watching all these athletes coming back and the communities are coming back into the fold. My question is, one of the questions that got brought up we were kind of talking about at this competition was the pfa or the the union type mentality that the athletes want to have a professional league and all this other stuff me personally i feel that say brent and pat who

are kind of organizing the pfa that they're barking up the wrong tree when it comes to CrossFit and the games. I feel that CrossFit is a certification company with a methodology. That's amazing. And it's a community-based event starting with the open all the way to the games. I would think that Brent and those guys or the union or future union would have a better chance at barking up the tree of someone from Dubai or the United Emirates with billions of dollars and start like what the live tour did with golf. Start off with a five event world tour.

Pay those athletes. Not a lot of money, but a starter so they can live off of whereas i feel like with dave and adrian i kind of use the same quote as what dana white did the games and the open and all that stuff and crossfit.com and blah blah blah that's the opportunity that those people can take it's just an opportunity they're not there to pay you you can do whatever you want with it just your thoughts on that like do you think basically like a live tour type event would do well josh with crossfit or the sport of crossfit i think that you're correct in the way that they're probably barking up the wrong tree.

I don't think that – I do wish that the athletes had more representation in the way that they could argue sometimes or have leverage when it comes to correcting mistakes that can be made on either way, right? The judges, whether it's for or against the athletes, I think that there should be more representation for the athlete. But I don't know if starting a union is the correct thing for CrossFit athletes. I don't, I kind of like where your head's at with like like a live type tour the hard part about that is finding the correct athletes right because athletes in the crossfit space typically have short lifespans and you only see a select few and then those athletes have to pick and choose which events that they do outside of the crossfit realm. Um, the, you know, the open, the, the sanctional and the games, um, you know, typically a game like a, an event like rogue

is going to be a great one because it pays so well. Um, Wadapalooza is, you know, that's kind of on one of those as well, maybe, but like, other than that than that you know for those got for those upper echelon athletes i don't see them wanting to do that many more events and so unless they did get paid really well it probably wouldn't be worth it for them well and that's exactly it i think the fact that they are i'm not saying bitching and complaining up the wrong tree i would just say you sound is this pat velner because this sounds like pat velner doesn't it is this just me no but i put it this way i live in colonna i live in the same town as uh fukowski so okay i'm like you sound like pat velner like you could fool me you could call me i agree the comments say that too it's pat it's

pat yeah no it's not pat um but yeah no it's just it's interesting because i think that they should like if you've ever been to a live event apparently i had a friend of mine that went to the one in mexico and it was amazing it's not the pga but it's a totally different experience. It's almost like little water paloozas on a live tour event. They also had an insane amount of money to back that and bring over the correct amount of – or bring over upper echelon athletes. You had guys – I mean Cam Smith was what? Top three in the world when he came over. Bryson DeChambeau, one of the bigger names in the PGA, they brought him over Phil Mickelson, you know, a legend of, you know, Brooks Koepka, you know, I mean,

they brought over some huge names to bring over. People would actually want to go watch where if they only brought in lower echelon athletes or players, then it wouldn't have done as well. And I don't think there would be as many people there. So to do what you're saying. So that's what I'm, that's what I'm saying. Yeah.

That's what I'm saying is that Brent and Pat and whoever else is involved should be going to the guys in Dubai and proposing like a five-stop tour around the world, you know, of, you'd obviously have to find the right guy to do it. That wants to just drop, you know, millions right guy to do it that wants to just drop you know millions of dollars to do this but to me that would be an amazing way plus because

crossfit wants to separate itself from a sport and a certification i just don't think that there it would be really hard to do and i'm not saying it couldn't be done. You'd have to pull away some of the top athletes from the sport to get them over to do that, to still be able to compete or to be able to compete and then not have to do the games or like a rogue or any of those other events that pay out because that's how they're, I mean, that's also how they're, you know, making their living and building their brands. Now they have to take a gamble where the F the athletes in the, on the live tour didn't really have to gamble because they were giving so much money. You know what I mean? Like there, there was no gamble there.

It was like, no one's going to do, no one's going to do that for CrossFit. Yeah. Like it would just be like, well, the only person who could do it for CrossFit would be someone like rogue ironically. And this isn't to dig at anyone. It's just that, but i just want to put things to scale for people who don't know the the golf um sells a 10 billion 10 billion dollars in golf balls every single year just balls the ball business and to put that in perspective that's the entire revenue for the nba the entire revenue. This fucking sport sells more in golf balls than the entire revenue of the NBA.

I mean, so it's on another level. The amount of money in golf is insane. I heard one weekend more money is spent on golf than the entire NFL fucking ecosystem. Yeah, because of all the golf courses and clubs. Yeah, think about everyone has a set of golf clubs in their house. Not me. Not me. That's because you're a loser of golf clubs in their house. Not me. Not me. That's because you're a loser.

Every non-loser. Every most men and women can go golfing. Anybody can do it. You don't have to even be good at it to go golfing. Non-binary. I'm non-binary. You can't pigeonhole me. I don't have golf clubs.

Non-binary. Golf is a different thing. It's a different beast and everyone can go do it and everyone can go compare themselves. And it's a, it's, you know, there's courses on every corner. It's definitely becoming more, it's more exposed. It's not just a game for like the rich people anymore. Like where you kind of used to be. I felt like it was definitely more of a game for like the rich people anymore, like where you kind of used to be. I felt like it was definitely more of a game for people who were wealthy. And so it's a different it's just hard to compare anything to golf.

Just so you know, Josh just exposed himself. That's because Josh has so much fucking money now. He's lost perspective. False. False. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Anytime you're up in Canadaada josh more than welcome take you golfing yeah thank you i appreciate it josh or savon uh savon call my show and invite my guest somewhere that's right man don't you forget it either pal golf not your guest you're my guest hey weren't bill and Bill and Katie making a bike? There was a bike they were making. Did that ever happen? I have no idea. Must have been that third booster. Pushing through one of the aortas.

Pushing through my – do you have multiple aortas or just one aorta? Who knows about aortas? have multiple aortas just one aorta who knows about aortas all the aortas yeah shit my my youtube station a couple days ago got uh shadow banned they throttled me back and i pulled down some they don't even tell me why either i just noticed that all of a sudden do you know what impressions are no on youtube so you know you go to your youtube page and there's like you go to youtube and it's like your youtube page and there's like you go to youtube and it's like your home page and there's like 500 videos they're suggesting for you there's ones down the side there's ones going like this it's just like fucking videos heaven yeah so all the each time that your video gets put on someone's page that's called an impression

right so like you can see like if you get like a hundred thousand impressions like throughout the world um like four percent of them might be clicked on or something. Anyway, all of a sudden I noticed the number of impressions they were giving me on other people's YouTube pages dropped by 30%. And I, I had made a couple of, I had made,

I talked about how I wanted, you know how the, you know how schools have like libraries have like reading hours now. Like you can get like, you can go and you can take your kid to the library and how schools have like uh libraries have like reading hours now like you can get like you can go and you can take your kid to the library and you can uh have men who dress up as women read to them like it's pretty common practice at libraries across the well i was talking about how i wanted to have like navy seal reading hour or it's just like you go there and it's like a navy seal yeah he's reading to your kids or uh like an amish lady i'd love to like my kids like

like an amish lady reading hour and i like my kids like like an amish lady reading hour and i talked about how i would like that it's like more options than just men who'd like to dress as women at the library okay and that didn't go over so well they didn't like that they didn't like that okay they didn't like that so much i did that i was you know i won't be posting anything like that then again no good to know that got my shit throttled back. There is a monopoly on who can read your kids at the library. It's not a laughing matter, but yeah, interesting. So I pulled those down, and immediately the throttling went away. Really?

Crazy, yeah. That is crazy. Well, thank you. Thanks for coming on and promoting. Someone in the comments wrote, hey, dude, Josh did not sign up for this. They think I'm taking advantage of you by accepting calls, which I am.

Caller, hi. What's going on, man? How you guys doing? Good, brother. How are you? Josh is pissed. You should have seen how pouty he was when he thought I was going to dig a deuce

and there wasn't going to be a commercial. His mood was all over his face like I was going to leave him on here by himself. I didn't like it. I wasn't happy about it. He was ready to fight. Even though his homeboy had to take a deuce, he can't fucking just hang on and cover for me. This guy's taking a digger. Yeah, he's taking a digger over there. Alright, I would do that for you. Go ahead, Collin. Yeah, I'm somewhat new to CrossFit.

And, you know, it's kind of going with the last guy I was talking about with the association, the PFAA, I think is what it is. And a couple of, like, the money being earned and so forth and so on. Overall, from a macro view, hasn't CrossFit year by year been paying their athletes a little bit more each game and in conjunction with the Rogue Invitational, which I think is a few years old now? Yeah, shit's growing. You're absolutely right. Every year there's more and more money-making opportunities

for people who participate in the sport of CrossFit for sure. Okay. And then, you know, another thing I was thinking about too is, um, I know CrossFit I think goes off of how they pay their athletes kind of with the same schematics as golf for the most part. And I don't know, I was thinking about like the nfl and so forth and so on you know like with the way that crossfit is going and i know you guys can probably fill me in with a lot of this um the way that crossfit is going like are they trying to make

moves that's getting them more established worldwide to be able to get to a level let's say like the nfl where they can pay their athletes more what was that question how can they make more money the sport's tiny here's the thing dude the sport is fucking tiny tiny tiny tiny we just have a it's just a massive uh it's it's a half inch of water spread over the planet you know what i mean it's just a massive uh it's it's a half inch of water spread over the planet you know what i mean it's just everywhere there's just no there's just no it just at the end of the day it just comes down to money like how much money is in the ecosystem and there's just not a shitload of money in the ecosystem um there are obviously remarkable things in the ecosystem you know like like rogue um you know RXBAR came out of the ecosystem.

But I don't know. I don't know what happened to Progenix, but look, it was everywhere and now it's gone. And so that was a supplement that was in the space. I think it's just a sheer dollar thing. There's no one being... The thing can't even carry its own weight. I don't care what anyone says, but the reason why Rogue does an event is because they fucking pay for it because they sell so much equipment.

The reason why CrossFit does an event is because they pay for it because they sell so many L1s and affiliate. Like these events are subsidized by other shit, and it's crazy generous that Rogue does does this and that crossfit does it but other than that these things aren't floating themselves by any means yet i don't think kudos kudos to wadapalooza for actually doing it like just just straight up would you say josh for sure yeah and and and that's why i mean the rogue event every time you hear an athlete talk about it it's like it's like the best event for the athlete. They pay for your travel. They get you a hotel room.

You fucking get a belt buckle that's one of a kind. The bus is nice. It drives you from point A to point B. The food's good. I mean, Bill and Katie just do it top notch, you know. Rogue is cool. And then my last question that I have for you guys is, like, where do, where do you see CrossFit let's just say like in seven years from today? That's a good question. You know, I think it'll be,

I don't know. I mean, gosh, it's, it's grown so much. And then it kind of like flat plateaued. I felt like a little bit. And then, you know, CrossFit as a company or tell me, wait, did you say CrossFit or the games? it's grown so much and then it kind of like flat plateaued i felt like a little bit and then you know crossfit as a company are you talking about wait did you say crossfit or the games uh crossfit crossfit as a company in general yeah crossfit as a company like with your guys's knowledge that yeah with the knowledge that you guys have and your experience and your expertise like in the next seven years like where would you say crossfit the company is going to be at you know i don't know i don't really have as

much insight on the company um i don't think it's going to go anywhere i don't think it's going to be gone um i think i think that depending on the leadership at the company, you know, can, is going to make a, some huge impacts on it. And so I, you know, it's, that's a good question, but I, and I really don't have a good answer for it. Um, I think the ideology behind CrossFit is, is so good though, for a training regimen, um, or just a fitness like lifestyle, uh, is great. It builds community. It builds, um, it just, everything about it promotes, you know, like a healthy living, healthy lifestyle. And so that's a positive thing. And I think that when you have something like that, right, that's, it's just going to continue to grow and catch on. CrossFit is a company, though.

I don't really know. You know, I don't I've never been on the inside. I've never worked for the for CrossFit. So that's a tough. Question for me to answer, really. It's not a fad, like a lot of people said it was going to be a fad. It's definitely not a fad. Like like Josh said, the methodology is so fucking solid.

The question is, is in the community could never be bought because you can't, you can't buy. That's the weird thing, right? Like this thing was bought and sold and sold and bought or whatever. But the thing is, is that this thing can't be, no matter how much money you have,

you can't buy a community. So there's something about this thing that just grew. Right. And, um, and so that part of it's unruly, unmanageable, and there's so much unknown.

And like those people aren't leaving to go to F45 or to go to other equally potent or people, not equally potent, but people in the space. I mean, yeah, CrossFitters do go off to Olympic weightlifting and they go off. But they at the end of the day, they usually end up coming back. And yeah, they have something. The leadership is something very, very hard to juggle. I agree with Josh. I have no idea what's going to happen. It's definitely not going to go away, but the people who own it definitely don't have a firm grasp of what it is yet.

It takes a long time to fucking understand what this creature is. It's not McDonald's or M&M or – you know what I mean? It's not selling widgets. Likecdonald's or m&m or um you know what i mean it's not it's not selling widgets like what the fuck is this thing but the leadership is crazy important to the people who are like oh it's just all community it is not it is not it needs a very very strong leader it needs a very strong leader with a strong vision i think of it as more akin to the military or Greenpeace. What's that called? We're like a – I can't think of the word.

But basically, yeah, that's it. Anyway, thank you for calling. Yeah, appreciate you guys' time. Appreciate that very much. Advocacy? Advocacy? Advocacy? Is that? Yeah, like we're advocates for movement and health and a healthy lifestyle.

That's really what – when people say community, I think that's what defines a community. Agreed. Heidi, Kareem, Josh, you don't have to answer these questions. Dude, Josh is cool guys guys thanks heidi appreciate it it reminds me of this guy josh this guy said that um that there were angels in his house and shit a guy had on the show he wrote this book called the ufo of god and there were like angels and and spirits in his house and god was communicating with them and he could see the angels running through this hallways and shit and i'd be like so what happens when um like like you're pooping

will they be in the room then or like when you're having sex with your wife or you're watching porn people thought those questions were inappropriate i'm like what it's inappropriate to like what the angels leave during those times is that what you're asking that's what you asked the guy well yeah like like you're trying to make love to Is that what you're asking? That's what you asked the guy? Well, yeah. What was the answer? You're trying to make love to your wife, and you look over, and there's like three angels in the room just eating popcorn and watching. And it's like – What – I just wanted to know.

I just wanted – I'd like to know those things. Oh, shit. Here we go. Please no more games questions. Someone ask Josh about Rogue, why he programs so many – Yeah. Let's ask him about Rogue. What's up, Josh? What's up, Josh? Hey, Gabe's ask him about Roke. What's up, Josh?
