Her hair is dope. Nailed it. Then there was that chick Lana. What is she doing again? She's doing media for 65 plus because no one else would. She had a special media pass to cover it.

Hopefully he's going to come on the show today, and I told him to come on and promote the app. There are a lot of events.

The internet sucks, though. Say that again, John? He said there are a lot of events to pick people now on the app oh good point uh eaton beaver it was a prison grab my pocket squeeze eaton beaver's not teddy is he oh shit tank reeves uh how terrible was the live feed for today oh dude when you're there you don't even know any of that shit that's going on dude i did like 50 interviews today dude i got to hang with alex gazan today was it a tool in person as it is on the show i was a little overwhelmed to be honest with you yeah she is some of the most of the athletes are not they're they're

they're they're all impressive, but there's some that when you see them, you're kind of like, oh, fuck. Jason Hopper is a fucking big dude. Yeah, he's a big dude. I didn't realize that. Yeah, when he grabbed me and hugged me, yeah, he's a slab of meat. That was the only person I was afraid for you to meet. Yeah, he came – him and Dallin came over, and they roughed me up a little bit.

He's something else. Dallin's big too. Yeah, Dallin's big. But not big like Hopper. Hopper is huge. Football big. Yeah. That David Shrunk guy, huge.

I got to look into his eyes. That's a man. Katrina – Karina Rain. look into his eyes. That's a man. Katrina Rain. I'm hopeful for the coverage of semis next year and hype for Guadalupe and Huntington Beach. I think we're about

to blow the doors off this thing. I think I killed it today, dude. I got so much great footage of Don Fall, Adrian Bosman, Dave Castro, Chuck Carswell, Alex Gazan, Colton Mertens. I had a great fucking powwow with

Annie and Katrin. I'm going to fucking murder it for you guys. It's going to be nuts. I got so much crazy footage with the demo teams, the judges, the Masters athletes. Hopefully, I'm going to try to find... I saw Noel Henderson at the demo teams the judges some masters athletes um hopefully i'm going to try to find i saw noel henderson at the end of the day oh room service is here all right baller john what's up how you doing you look you look nice and bronzed thank you turned into a nice shade on you right

now well everybody in the comments still is hating on it so we'll just i appreciate that he'll come around he'll come around i think i i have a light on and i think the lamp makes me look a lot redder than i am but without it like that's what i look like how did you get all those videos out like how is that even possible thank you and then i brought some yeah okay how did you get all those videos out? How is that even possible? Thank you. Yeah, okay. I love those videos, Hiller. I love seeing the athletes struggle before they actually have to do the event because then you get to

see the wide-eyedness when they actually go. When you find out who's bad before they go, it's great. It correlates. I know, but I like to see it. What I was actually thinking watching it is are specific athletes

doing that on purpose? They're just kind of chilling because they were curious about that. How many people are just chilling because they don't want to show their cards? Kosty wasn't chilling. Everyone knows him so what is that is everybody just sizing each other up over there can you feel any tension or anything like that or is it all like everybody plays nice and then oh boy oh that man knows how to party i was wondering what the

room service person thought when she like, I don't know why it's a she, but when they dropped off the food and then they could just hear somebody talking from the bathroom. Audrey sizing everybody up. Hey, so everyone to be honest with you everyone was really fucking cool today i got good vibes from every single person um the i did see justin

madaris there he was extremely focused i just gave him a couple highs i didn't film with him um i'm just feeling everyone out i did get a ton of great interviews with people i pow wow with cole sager great great talk with cole sager got great content from there colton uh who else today too many too many but is that was that dave eubanks in your video hillar that was yes it was okay i'm just confirming was it what no no no no i wonder set one did anybody act uh give you the same reception as dave gave hillar i had a great i had a great uh reception with dave eubanks there was one person one person that I saw that I saw that I saw a trip no I didn't you know I saw

Daniel Brandon from afar I never saw Lord you know what I hear I hear Lord is like like if you see her like it's it's it's not even like that at all I think Laura will be just cool as shit there was there was one no no no you got a figure shake too okay no

there was um oh here we go there's one female athlete and one uh employee there that it was just it was a little weird other than that it was it not bad just weird oh we got an echo that's why hillar's in the bathroom what's up james james how we doing look at james veteran move veteran move veteran move nice i love you for that what are we what are we talking about now hey so let's let's just get at it you ready james yeah let's get at it okay uh james is james already told us ahead of time we spoke to his agent.

Oh, good. Yeah, so tell me your first impression of Seban when you saw him. Adorable. Like a little tiny, like a beanie baby? Like a little tiny, large baby? I'm like, oh, that's so cute. Like a 1177. Like, just like someone I want to squeeze, you know?

Just as like bro to bro. Like, I just want to give you a big old squeeze. Amazing. this is like bro to bro like i just want to give you a big old squeeze um amazing who who anyone stand out there be honest who's like seems out of the boys who's uncomfortable like freaking out like anyone you see who's like just freaking out um no one's uncomfortable everyone's pretty chill me and me and jack we're talking like uh jack farlow we're like we're the rookies we don't know how to get in these veteran conversations yet so we we're trying to figure out how to weasel our way in there um but they're all everyone's so nice it's it's pretty easy to get along at least for the dudes it's like the girls are some more rivalries like i'm not tired of her but like for the

justin and velner were sitting next to each other, and Justin seemed like he was already level eight intensity. Oh, dude. I feel like Justin does the best job of anyone of not locking in until he has to. I don't know. Oh, okay. Okay, okay. He does a great job just like, hey, I'm going to enjoy this, and then be a boss when I have to.

It's dope. I didn't see your – I saw Fisa Goffey. Yes. That was cool. I saw Dallin Pepper. I saw Fisa Goffey, James Frigg, Dallin Pepper. Oh, I didn't see Emma Carey. Oh, okay.

And then I barely saw Danielle Brandon for a brief second, and then i barely saw danielle brandon for a brief second and then i turned around she was gone gotcha yeah she's she's all over man i don't know she's miss social every she she has to be so many places so many times she needs two of her are they uh did the documentary crew approach you i know there's a documentary crew there

that's like approaching people are you were you picked to be part of that? Not yet. I have to go prove my way in first. Did they say that? That's why I have to bike hard. No, I just assume you have to do something cool to get into that. You kind of look like you're in a, in person, you're, you're more attractive than you are on camera. Oh, really? Yeah. You got more boy.

I saw you and I was like, you're a little boy. You got a little boy band in you. Yeah, dude. I feel that. I mean, I'll take that. It's the opposite of being photogenic, right? I mean, you're good looking on camera, but you're even better. You don't let down.

Let's say that. You don't let down. You're sweet. I want to hug you even more now. Hey, how big is Jason Hopper? Small, dude. Everyone's small to me. I look down on everyone.

Oh, shit. No response. He's this big. Small dude, everyone's small to me. I looked out on it. Oh shit No He's big enough to be third string at Clemson Shit you ain't fucking around spray game fucking around he's been rude to me this week brah. I'm gonna dish it back He playing head games with the guys back there? You dropping little things like that and just kind of seeing, just kind of give one of these, but like verbally and see who kind of jumps? If I can figure out how to, I'm usually too nice to do that,

but I'm trying to figure out how to be, you know, have a good balance of that. How about Fikowski? Did you talk to Fikowski? A little bit. I told him he'd go back-to to back again to measure because he that me him and yele the host are uh i think that's how you say his name are the three tall guys so we need to see who's the tallest oh i'd like to see that i'm gonna try to organize that tomorrow okay do it do it yeah bring it up i um i did get a chance to talk with fukowski a little bit today and then i saw his agent um at my hotel

some guy named benji yeah isn't that crazy yeah and so i asked benji if you could get fukowski on there he's like i always tell let me know if you want anyone on let oh you're gonna love this season he goes let me know if you want anyone on let me know if you want anyone on i'm like who do you represent and he names off all these people he's like and fukowski i'm like, who do you represent? He names off all these people. He's like, and Fikowski. I'm like, Fikowski. He's like, oh, come on. Like there's no fucking way. Not him. Come on, come on. Have you ever had him on?

No, no. But I think I've teased. I mean, I love Fikowski. He was on with Hunter McIntyre one time. On this show? Yeah. He doesn't know what he's missing out on, bro. This is the only place he had fun.

That was a long time ago, John, huh? Yeah, I mean, when Hunter McIntyre was relevant in CrossFit. I don't think I ever had Fikowski on. No, not on this show. Yeah, you did. Yeah, you did. There was a whole battle between those two. No.

What? Brent Fikowski, the tall, dark, blonde dude? The guy with the crazy physique? Caleb's on it. Caleb, is this true? No, Caleb shook his head like, fuck you guys. Hey, does this stuff hydrate you?

No. Okay, a serious question, James. Sparkling water for hydration. it's just bullshit, right? It doesn't do it for something. I mean, I couldn't do it. I just need my regular H2O with some salt. I don't think I could do sparkling. That's a good hat.

I mean, it's still water. I think you could get away with it. But I just wouldn't want that. It's a great question. That photo looks like when you go to a mexican restaurant and the waiter gets in on the group birthday photo let's go you want with me oh that sucks so good we've been waiting almost 12 hours when do tdc and daniel brandon come on jesus we got james sprague what do you need yeah i'm not pretty enough, guys. I'm sorry.

You are pretty enough. Don't look down. Thank you. So, Hiller, what did you have to do to get that pass to be in front of us on that bike today? I was shocked to see you there. I was shocked to see him there, too. Let's talk about this. So are the people letting him in? You walk back there and you just don't ask any questions. And you just feel like

they didn't care? I think it was a little bit more open today yeah i got this blue wristband which gets you a little bit more than the pink wristband and with the wristband i just didn't get told to go away gotcha however you you shout at something and adrian shouted hey don't get distracted i got distracted that was the only instance i you're looking too big on those hormones, bro. Also, I just played Catan with Brian Friend, and he kicked my butt. Have you guys played Catan?

Hey, dude, are you still doing that right before the games? I heard that drops your T levels. Nah, bro. Yeah, yeah. Actually, it raises them. A lot. Not if you lose, Susan. Not if you lose.

Hey, that chick Mollylly said james is hot from yeah she didn't uh molly you should see him in person and i'm not even joking my dad's laughing he's getting a kick out of this your shit your shit'll swoon uh oh my god why that picture of my shorts all fucking buckled around my moose knuckle what is going on except on fanny pack. It was great hanging with you today. Fuck you. Someone made it a count, bro.

They got a pun in there. That's amazing. Wait, do you have two fanny packs on in that? Yeah. He does. You're in a two-chains? He's two fanny packs. That's like a grout fit. You can't do that, bro. It's like a what, James? A grout fit. Like gray on gray. a grout fit you can't do that bro that's like a what a grout fit like gray on gray bad boy trina mcloyd finally caught a live one my heart is full to see you in your prime

smash it boys she's talking to you james you're the only one in your prime oh no y'all look good y'all look great thank you and what about this upside down workout where it's like you're gonna do everything's upside down except for pullovers have you seen this thing i mean pullover should kind of go upside down too you get really dizzy i'll tell you that linking them together it's all it's all the dizzy fest brother just call it a dizzy workout it's sick though because if this is the only way handstand push-ups come up, Laura Horvath's happy, I'm happy. It's great.

So when you see that pullovers, we'll ask you and we'll ask all the boys here, what do you guys think is going to count as a rep? So you think you're going to do a pullover and then lock out at the top? Yeah. I'm sure they'll let you go unbroken if you want to or like reps on reps but you have to just like show clear lockout like a bar muscle up god that's gonna be nuts a pullover is when you jump grab the bar point your feet straight up into the air and then get on top of the bar yes correct yeah you kind of shoot over and then so to get down what are you

gonna do you're gonna do a negative muscle up and you let go of the bar and that's one rep um then you can you can almost you it's a reverse hollow so you kind of go into a superman hollow at the bottom and then you just kind of fall off the bar to link them together but this girl makes them look she does too much with her arms you can actually use like less arms if you figure it out dude someone's getting their junk wrecked on that pull-up. Oh, yeah. You have to wear really tight shorts. You got the Noble Cup or what? The Noble Cup. Oh, that'd be sick. I've done those before. 16. Sounds like so many.

How do you know it's 16? How do you know it's 16? He read the description. So you're saying you can do pullovers without dismounting yeah yeah he can do that okay all right yeah people can figure it out it's it's different it's just a different way to move your body opposite of hollow which is all we really do gymnastics with is a hollow position so if you can figure out how to get yourself out of that you can do it do you think j it do you think

james do you think that's the crux of the workout that part because i mean everybody has been doing free hand standing push-ups um since the last since 2021 do you think that's the crux of the workout or the 360 on the obstacle so unbroken obstacle steps to a 360 pirouette it really depends do you see how victor kicked up in that games post if they make you do a v-sit up that that might be the crux of the workout um if they make you do like a um straddle up into a handstand and then into that like that's a hard skill but if they just just say hey get up on this ramp however you need to then it is what then that'll be easier but boys i need ham what do i need be easier but boys i need ham what

do i need help what a ham i need help what are you guys talking about here i think on instagram the crossfit games post you can see victor do yeah this right here i doubt very many games people have that period that's a very hard skill he made very way too easy watch so so you basically have to have all that core control um be able to master the straddle and come up yeah there's no way anyone's doing it like that i guarantee it that's like way too advanced other people look way more sloppy but basically the whole game's build i mean you who 10 people can do this wait a second before you there, are you saying that we know that's the movement? You're going to stand below a box, put your hands on it, and get up on it with your hands?

I mean, I assume so if they were practicing that. Why would they post that and not be a thing? I can see that being the very last one because it says 360 pirouette and then 180 pirouette. The 180 pirouette is the last one yeah and 360 would be all the way around right he only did 180 when he continued to go forward right yeah i guess no i guess it'd be 360 yeah he did a 360 so i mean it really depends people are going to get jammed on those pullovers and it'll be like from the best pullover 16 split to the worst it'll be like a 45 second difference.

If you go 16 singles or 16 unbroken, it'll be like 45 seconds. So you could gain a lot of time from having good pullovers, but you could also gain a lot of time from being good at that skill. But all the others look fine. Like, like eight freestanding isn't that many. But it just helps to be proficient here. Just go fast and move. You don't need to sprint. Did you see the Instagram post where Adrian and Victor Hoffa, Victor Hoffa, Victor Hoffer, Victor?

Hoffer. That guy. By the way, that guy is a beautiful man. Did you see him in person, Hiller? He's great, bro. He's young too, young blood. He's a special looking kid. Yeah, he looks like a model too, but they're celebrating.

They're celebrating something. And I, and I asked him yesterday, I said, were you guys celebrating something that Victor did? And they both nodded. So whatever, maybe it is that, but they said basically Victor murdered something. Roman really liked that. Say that again. Roman was a big fan of that, right?

What do you mean? I don't remember. Wasn't that something that was posted on Instagram? Go to the comments here. Roman's comment. He said he didn't make the games or something. Oh, right. Too bad he didn't qualify. I don't know why. That came out of nowhere, I feel. Dude.

Yeah, like... Oh, dude. Poor guy. Oh, oh shit 27 replies 417 likes on a fucking post comment victor hoffer did something to roman real post hey james i just think that that translated wrong what do you think um no i think he really is trying to say something like that wow you do you think really got that kind of sense of humor like just fuck with some dude rando the other day a picture of him at the pool and said i am father trying to say i am daddy but he said i am father that would be funny i am am father. I'm father.

Oh, man. But, hey, think about this. This isn't even the skills test. We were talking about that in the text thread. This isn't event eight. What is the skills test if this isn't the skills test? I don't know. We don't know. It's got to be ring, front roll, back roll with L-sit handstands.

It's got to be ring, front roll, back roll with L-sit to handstands. It's got to be that and a mat and low. Unpack it up for us. Triple unders? Triple unders? Triple unders. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. It could be triple unders.

Wouldn't the issue be with that, though? Throw in a shot put, James, all right? Dude, I did shot put in the eighth grade. It was pretty weak, though. It's more than other people, I bet. I think it has to have the P bars. Yeah, that'd be sick. They had those. Well, we actually walked by the demo team garage today,

and I don't think it was supposed to be open, and we saw all the stuff in there. You did? Yeah, I tried not to look too hard. Oh, shut the fuck up. Are you kidding me? I hope your dad spanked you for saying that. What?

You're so polite. There wasn't really much to see, but it was just funny. I was like, they shouldn't leave that open while the athletes are walking by. Hey, wasn't it you who leaked some demo shit last year? We had you on the podcast or some shit? That was not me. No one leaks. Oh, okay.

No, I don't remember that either. You know, the demo team is not allowed to go on podcast this year, and I think that's because of you. Are you serious? Yeah. The Sprague rule, it's so weird. Yeah, it is called the Sprague rule. Let's go.

They also made a Nick Matthew rule. You can't cut your tops this year. Is that true? Yeah. Yeah, he said if the girls do it, though, he's doing it. Let's go. As he should. I'm like, dude, go do your thing. Run your brand.

Equality. Thanks for all the content you guys provide collectively. I think that's thanking you two. John Young? No. John Young. For Hiller's video today and John's mic sounding better. It did sound a little better.

It does sound better. I'm trying, guys. Sarah, James rooting for you from up in Washington. I go to the same gym as your uncle. Oh, shit. Wait, which uncle? You have an uncle? Which dad?

Dad, does Uncle Ted do CrossFit? Yes. Oh, that's crazy. From what Jim said. What's up? Oh, cool. Love it. That's awesome.

Well, thanks, Sarah. I appreciate you. Mason Mitchell, respect to Sprague. Lucky camera straps. I didn't see Hiller wearing your straps today, by the way. Oh, damn. I didn't think we were doing anything today. And then we did a lot.

Then you made a lot of videos. Hey, James, how was the bike track? Did they have an XL size bike for you? They only had two or three of them. And I had to steal Fikowskis. And yeah, they didn't have many of them. I think it was like three or four of us that needed them. And they only had two.

So we had to take two because they didn't heat to two is that but yeah i could not have gone i could not have gone on the large one i would have been way too small you and fukowski really did use the same bike that's true story yeah yeah i got to touch the same handlebars as him isn't that crazy well that i'm just wondering because they didn't have enough bikes so you had to share yeah just for today they'll definitely definitely have another XL for me out there. Hey, you know, I want to tell you guys something. I was there for Bethany Shadburn's helmet fitting today. Mm-hmm.

And Caleb's getting crazy. And I've always said that I thought Bethany Shadron was just crazy beautiful, and she reminded me of Wonder Woman because she had a giant head. I just loved how big Bethany's head was. And I found out she's a fucking small. Heartbroken. I still think she's beautiful, but it screwed my whole theory up. Don't bitch your heroes.

I still think she's beautiful, but it screwed my whole theory up. I was like – Don't beat your heroes. I've always thought – I was like her key to her beauty is her giant head. I did it like Wonder Woman, Gal Gadot. I just heard that, that beautiful women have big heads. And she is a small. And my whole theory is just all out the door. Damn.

I think you have a big head, don't you? James? No, no damn i think you have a big head don't you james no no fucking i have a big head james has got a watermelon yeah dude so on you're small around dude you'd be a small too i'm not small around you're adorable i'll keep saying it you're adorable a little i'm a little cup of jam yeah one of those little jam jars so we know like a lot of the games that's pretty crazy a lot of those i think we know half of them yeah i mean which one do you want to talk about the pig chipper it just depends on how they do the wall ball that's about it i think it's normal yeah it's great what do you mean it's how they do the wall ball that's about it i think it's normal yeah it's great what do you mean it's how they do it you mean like if you're gonna have to pick it up from behind what are you talking about

if they do like a 12-foot target or something weird like yeah it's either a 30 ball 30 pound ball to a 10 or or it's gonna be a 20 to like an 11 i bet so not normal not normal does there's no throw you off that 11 is that can make a big difference for you would you prefer like the 30 or would you prefer the higher you prefer higher for me oh the harder the wall ball the better yeah but i like that workout it's a great chipper i'm excited for it uh jonathan ortega, James Sprague. I need really good celebrations from you this week for photos. Oh, I saw this dude. Johnny's the man.

His stash is the best in the game, too. Yeah. He's got it going. Sebon was looking hench. What's hench? That's like a good thing. That's the word. Someone used that. I think Daniel Brandon used it. Hench?

Hench means like... Emily Rolfe used it. It means huge, like jacked. Wow. Dang, that's a compliment. Hench. Wow. I think that's how you're supposed to say it. That was good. Oh what up oh hedge

strong fit and having well-developed muscles yeah typically used for a man thank you james i'd go they them for you dang i don't know what that means but is that like saying i'd die for you, but even more intense? Maybe. Hey, Hiller and I were eating dinner tonight, and Ariel Lowen and her husband walked by, and they sat down with us. Oh, what? Oh, that's awesome.

Yeah, that was nice. That's cool. Dylan. What is this call-in number thing? What happens if you call it? Dude, nobody's calling. We had one test call.

I wanted to comment on Hiller's video today when he was talking with Dave about the bikes from the crib. Shit. Be nice. Please be nice. My finger's on the trigger, don't you worry. Dave really blew Hiller off because he was asking the tough questions. My finger's on the trigger, Sevan. Don't you worry. No, Dave

really blew Hiller off because he was asking the tough questions. No, because Hiller made a video about him being an asshole and Hiller destroyed him in some previous content. And then Hiller walked up behind him and started talking to him and Dave Eubanks turned around and he's like, fuck this dude.

And I don't blame Dave at all. You turn around and big old buff Hiller. Dave's a big dude too but Dave's like, fuck dude dude. And I don't blame Dave at all. You turn around and fucking big old Buff Hiller. Dave's a big dude too, but Dave's like, fuck, dude, I'm trying to work, and you're here, you ding-dong. No, he was answering text messages, homie. No, text messages. He was texting with Chuck on the size of something to move something to make sure James Sprague was happy about something.

James, were you happy? He was on the cold shoulder for sure. But for him to say that a crossfit athlete has too much power output like has he ever seen a track cyclist put pressure on those pedals aren't supposed to break off never take four calls again but hey sprague uh sprague you're a good dude and i'm rooting for you this year.

I just want to say this. They're like, there's a pause in the action, and there's this thing that comes up on the screen that says we're moving the camera can you please wait take your time take your time hello caller welcome to the show what's your name i'm kate and i got j Yeah, go for it. Kate. Where is he? James is gone. What happened to James? I'll answer for James. Go ahead. Go ahead. We'll answer for him.

Well, I guess anybody can answer this, but I really wanted his opinion. Who do you think is going to win in a fight? Dallin or Hopper? Oh, there's James. Ask James that again. Great question, James. Oh's James. Great question, James. That's great. Here we go. Oh, shit.

James, who do you think is going to win in a fight? Pepper or Hopper? Wait, wait. Who is this? This is just a random person you don't know. That's a good answer. That's a good answer.

That's a great question. I think they both have different skill sets, but since Hopper comes from a football background, I have to take Hopper. Oh, interesting. Are you going to tell Dallin that tomorrow? Oh. I think Dallin would understand.

I think Dallin – I haven't seen Dallin would understand. I think Dallin... I haven't seen Dallin be mean either. I think he's just... If he was defending one of his family, though, he'd rough some shit up. Dallin's got the dog in him. Yeah, Dallin's got the dog in him.

But I... I don't think it'd be like a knockout. I think they'd go pretty hard. Oh, shit. Downs wearing a Glennon shirt. That's cool. I didn't look at any media today. Zero.

This was 2.34 p.m. on Monday. Oh. Go ahead. Do you think anybody could beat Pepper in a fight? Do you think anybody could beat Pepper in a fight? Do you think anybody could beat Pepper in a fight? Do you think you could take him? Who is this caller? What's happening? They really don't like downing Pepper.

I think this is an AI bot. This is not a female voice. No, it's real. I could tell by the phone call. Okay. All right. Thanks for taking my time. No, no. It's a great call. Yeah, thank you. Listen, I'm going to answer this. I'm going to answer this. I don't know. It's a great call. Yeah. Thank you.

I want to answer this. I'm going to answer this. I can't believe James came on here today and he's like, I'm fucking, I'm fucking hopper up today. And now he just got, let me say something. That one would fucking put fucking hoppers head in a toilet and flush it.

Ooh. I like it. Spank him on the ass. Anyway, you know, Hopper doesn't know his feet from his head. How's that? All right, good luck this weekend. Thank you, Collin.

Dude, I'm telling you, Jason Hopper is so big. He is big. He is big. I mean, Down's big, but I saw the two of them standing next to each other. Hopper is like a slab of meat. He's like Griffin Rawley kind of stretched out a little bit. Yeah. No, I could see that.

He is thick. I don't think Hopper's 220. I think Hopper's 229. Archer 7-off. Archer 7-off destroys everybody in a fight. I don't know. Yeah, I agree. Anyone with the Russian last name.

I think Jake Douglas. Caller, welcome to the show. Oh, Jake Douglas would fucking run through a fucking out. I saw him go in the outhouse. I felt sorry for the outhouse. Like, what are you doing there? Well, Jake is one of those guys that's super nice, but you know he has this side.

If he turns it on, you're done. And his tats, bro. He looks almost black. He looks like you could hit him with a bat in the face and his face wouldn't feel it. I mean, he just got that, like, yeah. I agree. Douglas doesn't look like a real human being in person apparently me and him are competing for the third spot on down and jason's team so i have to beat jake at the games for what team for our walk so far in the events james, I think you're going to be fine. Thanks, bro.

Thanks, John. John's like, when are we going to talk about CrossFit? The Mighty Joe Young. Keith and Michelle Neal, not Michael, the Street Parkers, will be at the Games Thursday. Hope to see you and any of you this weekend. You are all doing great. Oh, that's them.

I saw them. I had to get the screen to look close. What's up, guys? Keith and Michelle Neal. Hi. Hi, guys. Okay, let's get through some of these. Okay, Heidi.

I didn't see Heidi today. What's with the street parking VIP seats there now in Cahoots with CF? There were street parking VIP seats at the games? Wow. I didn't know that. James, this is your doing, dude. Callers, welcome. Goodbye.

I just want one of my friends to come on and say something embarrassing. Have some fun. I think they did already because one of those was from Naples, Florida. Oh, wow. Okay. Richard Crinkle Vag. Richard Crinkle

Vagine. Crinkle Vagine. Vagine. Dick Crinkle Vagine. Caller, you're live on air. What's your name? Dude, it's Jeremy. What's going on? What's up, Jeremy?

What it do? What it do? What's up, dude? I'm What it do? What it do? What's up, dude? I'm dying to hear about how you broke up with your girlfriend. God, I still don't know the story. Oh, shit. I'll see you soon. I'll tell you in person.

It's better in person. I don't want to bore the audience. You got a big audience tonight. This is crazy. Love it. James Friggs. James Friggs is here. That's what's up.

Is that really? James, question for you, man. This is crazy. Love it. James Riggs. James Riggs is here. That's what's up. Is that really? James, question for you, man. How, when you walked by the demo tent, did part of you wish you were still on the demo team? Or are you happy to be on the demo team? Is that a real question? Yeah.

No, no, no, man. You gotta be super psyched dude you made the games that's freaking awesome man that is cool yeah it's it's very redeeming and full circle you know it was great experience last year but i really think that it wasn't it wasn't my calling to be on the demo team. I want to be a game guy. Absolutely. I think you crushed that too, but I think the best part is your attitude, man. You got a killer attitude in a good way.

You're a positive dude. It's pretty fun. It's pretty fun to watch you, man. What's your favorite event that you're looking forward to so far? I like the bike. I like the 5K. I like the pig chipper. And I also like how the handstand push-ups are not programmed in a capacity form.

That helps me out. What does that mean? What does that mean? I like that. What do you mean? Not 50 handstand push-ups for time type deal. Right, right. Not a bunch.

Also, that sandbag skier is gonna end lives oh yeah that's gonna hurt so bad somebody commented i think on the the instagram saying that that doesn't seem hard enough and i'm like oh gosh that's gonna kill people bro that's the worst uh event lactically of the weekend so far like That's going to make people throw up. Do you think the sandbags will be the same weight? Yeah, it's 200 pounds. That's heavy. Oh, you know that already?

That's more than your mom, bro. That is more than my mom. That's two moms. Did they tell you that, James? Yeah, it said it in the email. Oh, we don't have that email, man. You're going to do 30 front squats holding a 200 bag in the front? 50?

It's not about going hard on the skier. You could probably dog the skier and be a beast on the bag and win that workout. Are you allowed to hold it on your shoulder? Oh, as soon as they hang up on this motherfucker. Not James, but the guy calling in. Dude, it's multiple people. It's not just multiple people. It's not just me. It's multiple people.

This show is crazy. It's awesome. Hey, wait, James. You're going to do 50 front squats with a 200-pound bag. Even worse. If they make you put it on your shoulder, that's even worse, man. Because when you drop that thing, cleaning it back up with no legs sucks. Hey, so I'm going to

say something stupid. John's going to fucking destroy me for this. So you don't do those unbroken? Potentially. Goddamn. I think the winner will do it unbroken. If you do the first 30 unbroken, you're not doing the last 20 unbroken. I'll tell you that.

That's cool. You don't think so? Amen. Oh, I can't wait to see. Ellie Turner is going to – I want to see Ellie Turner do this. This is just – James, what's with the – Oh, Ellie Turner. What do you want to amrap?

Do they break that down, the bike? Like, are you just, like, 40 minutes hits and you're, like, mid-lap and you stop? Like, what's that? So, say you finish um so so for example if your lap was six minutes today you could get six laps in 36 minutes right then you would have four more minutes so you would finish that lap and whoever you're on that final lap with lap seven however you finish lap seven would be your score so say there's three guys that get into lap eight um then those three guys would be racing for one two and three and whoever finishes lap eight first

so you you will definitely bike over 40 minutes unless you somehow perfectly time it so it's it's actually more than 40 minutes you're going to go over that that time domain so so if you did it smart today and that thing you were finding figuring out how can i get to that final lap with just getting through a few seconds earlier so i can have the final lap oh okay so okay so some strategy to it i like it yeah all right i don't want to take up too much more time here. I also, last question, John,

how many natural ice drinks did you watch? Oh Jesus, Jeremy, you can't say the first thing and then fucking come with another question. Okay. So get it out, spit it out, spit it out.

Go, go, go. How many natural ice drinks did you watch? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Natural light. Is that a beer? That's a beer. Look at her. Look at her. Okay. Thank you, Jeremy. Bye. I love you. I love you guys.

See you tomorrow. See you soon. Holy shit. The calls, dude, are insane. Hey, will you be taking a watch out there, James? Is that what you're saying? You'll be taking like a lab watch? Yeah, use that one they gave us, the G. Oh, you already got that. Yes, sir. Natural light.

What color is that? I think it's the woman's one. They gave me the woman's one. The unknown. $50. I've seen women with that color. Why did they give you a women's color? I don't know. Dad, would you mind shutting the door, please?

Why, was he taking a shit with the door open? I think he's talking to his girlfriend. Hey, Dad, would you mind shutting the door? We can listen to his girlfriend, Tom. And don't use my towel. You're going to be on the podcast if you don't shut the door. Oh, awesome. Tom, I say hi. Alright, we got another caller here.

Caller, hello. Welcome to the show. Goddamn, I can't help but love you. Oh, I love you. Okay. Caller, yes. What's your name? Hello, gentlemen. How are you today?

Fantastic. How are you? Fine. Wonderful. Glad to hear that. I'm fine. Thank you. I'm calling from Bolivia.

My name is Angelo. Oh, good thing you had on. I was going to tear your shit up. Go on. What's going on, brother? Sorry about that. Well, James, I have a question. Do you think you can beat Roman in this ski back event?

I don't know. We'll see. I'm going to try my best to do great in all these, but it's not a machine capacity event. His skier ability isn't going to help him in this. It's going to be squat capacity. Of course it, it helps to have a better ski, but it's not a skier workout like the pool one last year was all skier.

This one is skier is like 10% of this workout. So, so to be exact, I don't know how I'll finish. I think I can do good in there, though. Yeah, I hope to see that. And thank you. Thank you for the answer. And I have one comment. I think the broadcast today do a big favor to the new coming behind the scenes.

Because that was a shitty thing. Yeah, so the bar was too low. Now, now Savan can do a masterpiece with the behind the scenes. Beautiful. We love it. Thank you so much. The broadcast today was

a master broadcast four or five times on repeat. The broadcast today was a master broadcast four or five times on repeat. I probably won't get any sleep tonight watching some of it. Hey, you guys, remember James Spriggs is a rookie. How old are you, James?

All right. Welcome to the show. Wait, what did you say, James? Shane from Sunny. Caller, go ahead. Yeah, yeah. Shane from Sunny Palm Springs, California. Call for Siobhan and Hiller.

Man, certainly glad to have you guys back. Curious as to what you're most surprised by today, kind of being back and obviously Hiller being the first time. And what as to what you're most surprised by today, kind of being back and obviously Hillary being the first time. And what do you think you might do differently tomorrow? Good question. Surprised James Sprague came on the show

when he should be sleeping. I'm going to bed now. I wasn't surprised by anything. I was reminded by how amazing the event is and how amazing the athletes are. They're really special looking in person. They're really, there's a lot of like this nondescribable glow coming from these people. I mean, these people are really showing up. I mean, dude, I mean, Emily Rolfe and Paige Semenza and Shelby Neal and Dallin Pepper and James Sprint.

I mean, dude, Noah and Cole. Dude, it was crazy. It was crazy. People are glowing. Don't you think, James? I mean, people are glowing. Yeah. I mean, it's a good-looking bunch, man.

I think it doesn't fall from the tree. When you work hard, you look good. So I think it's pretty cool to see that. Yeah. Everyone's come up with their A game. Okay. Nice having you on, James. Go ahead, Hiller.

What surprised you, Hiller? Well, I've been here every year for five years. So, I mean, it's gotten easier. It's gotten easier. Every single year you show up. Oh, I mean, even this year compared to last year. I think I was talking to Tyler Watkins or maybe it was Brent about just having the camera in general

makes a huge difference when compared to an iPhone. That was surprising. The difference in just people's reactions to it makes it easier. I got to apologize to the caller because three calls came in at one time and my phone just jammed up. I love it.

Let me get through some of these real quick. Sorry, what did you say, James? I said I keep jamming up too. It keeps kicking me off. It's probably my sign to go to bed. James, thank you for coming on. I really, really appreciate it. I'm not even just saying

thank you for the sake of it. You're a superstar and we're honored and blessed to have you, brother. I'm honored to be here, too. I'll see you tomorrow. Okay, bye. Good night, boys. Bye, dude. Thank you.

Yeah. You guys are out of control today. Hey, I want to apologize, by the way, for the show we missed today. I am really going to try to do that tomorrow. I'm going to try to do a midday show, even if it's just for 10 minutes. I'm scared to go live at the venue, although Heather Lawrence has been absolutely fantastic. But before I go live, I need to make sure wherever I'm at, I get the approval from her. And today I just wasn't – I couldn't get in touch with her in time.

And by the time I did get in touch with her, I was off to the races. But I'm going to really try to do that tomorrow. I think you guys will really like it if we can all jump on our iPhones and you can see the venue. So we'll try that tomorrow. Sevan pulling the alpha move, making Hiller sit in the bathroom, flush the toilet. Hey, I need his internet, man.

Hey, Hiller pulled internet, man. Hey, Hiller pulled the alpha move because I got to take a piss and he's in there. I ordered someone's dinner tonight. He did. The waitress came and he ordered my dinner. I was like, dude.

He said he's getting the same thing so I just ordered two of what I got. We're getting a fucking date. For that selfie you're going to take with me this weekend and all you're doing to bring us the great athlete stories absolutely ken can't wait to see you oh ken ken put a picture of me too ken's the um buffed old dude uh semper fit dellis oh where's that from what is is that? Charcuterie. Looks like Cashew and Hiller are boys now. I saw the bro hug.

I went from who Hiller to hugs. Oh, shit. I'm back. I'm going to kill that screen. I'm back. I'm going to kill that screen. Harry, balls on you. Can we talk about the kettlebell swings today?

Absolutely. Were there kettlebell swings today? Yeah, as soon as we see them from the sky again. Was there a workout with kettlebell swings? Yeah, the Masters did Helen, or the age groupers did Helen today. Oh, that's right. How were they? How did they judge them? Everything good?

Sam Briggs had pretty good swings. I think everybody else did not. Did Sam win? You could see that, Caleb? I don't think so. I just saw a video that somebody sent that looked pretty inadequate. This is fun, a Ukrainian swing. Do you know what the best time was, Caleb? Let was 7 16 i think there was a sub seven time

and then for the women it was 750 for the 35 to 39 samson 44 44 she was 801. Oh, that's so upsetting. She beat me by two seconds. You did that workout? You did the workout? Helen's version. Master's version.

No, I did regular Helen for the first time a week ago. Oh. Oh, I got you, Johnny. Oh, you did. You did. Absolutely. Absolutely. Hell yeah. Absolutely. Absolutely. Hell, yeah.

20 seconds or something like that, right? What place is Scott Banchik in? Probably like sixth. What the hell? How can that be? Hey, where the hell did that go? Where did we get rid of the leaderboard? I'm trying to refresh.

Sorry. Sorry, I wasn't yelling at you. I was just really into it. You guys can see this right now. I turned it down, but the phone's still just going off. Go ahead, answer. Hey, John, is there anything you want to talk about? This show's going to be over before you know it. Were there any workouts or anything you want to talk about?

Do you want to talk about the workouts that were announced? Okay, let's do it real quick. Scott Panczyk's 7th. Holy shit. How can that be? He's waiting. It's early. If you're 7th on the Masters, it's hard to make up ground

to 1st. It makes me wonder what dancers at 280. The gap on 1st through 5th, it's just really hard to make up ground in the Masters. Briggs got seventh in the lift one year and got first. Every single other event, she got first, and she ended up in second. Okay, I did hear this. I did see Scott today, and he said he was sick, and I misunderstood.

I thought it was like a week ago. This guy's saying he was puking his brains out before Helen. Okay. And that's why he looked so lean in that photo. He said he lost a shitload of weight. All right, that makes sense. All right. He's a young guy.

I competed against a lot of balloons, so he's really fit. Let's talk about this inverted medley and ski bag. Are these the two that were announced? We talked about this with James Sprague a bit. Okay, let's go. Let's pick who's going to win this inverted medley. Let's start there for the women. Daniel Brandon.

Fuliano. Elisa Fuliano. I'm going Ariel Owen. Ariel Owen is my second pick. That's a great pick. I just want to pick an underdog. But Ariel Owen would be my pick out of the top women. Yeah.

Hey, who did we have? There's not enough handstand wadding for Daniel Brandon to win. Who did we have on the show who was a level nine gymnast? Emily Rolfe. Emily Rolfe? Was it Rolfe? It wasn't Paige Powers, was it? Probably one of the two, honestly.

Hey, you know who else might have been a gymnast? Like a really good gymnast is Alexis Raptus. Yep. Cave Dastro did that too. What did he say, Alexis Raptus? Yeah, is Alexis Raptus. Mm. Yep. Cave Dastro did that too. Oh, what did he say? Alexis Raptus? Yeah, he said Raptus. Yeah. John, how would Rich do in the Masters?

Ooh. I mean, he would probably win. Yeah. Why? Never count him out. He might pick to win. Yeah. Ukrainian swing top search on Hunter Biden's laptop. Jeez.

Good job. ET is alpaca. Two scored events. It says for time twice in the description. No. One event. No, it does say for time twice. Is it the push at the beginning

bailey rail was a gymnast so lots of gymnasts oh it does say for twice no where it says around for time and then at the top it says for time oh sure enough so i don't know if that's a typo could be that the sled pushes for time that's what i was gonna say like so you don't game it you know it could be the person who wrote it it's only one slot for a score for now it could be that the person who um wrote alpaca understands it about as well as i do i think it's a typo because I mean they wouldn't redo what they wanted to do last year and have it two different events

maybe that was their intent before it's possible yeah Nolan Southfield women's 40-45 first champion to test positive I hope not hear me out. Savant's been working with CrossFit this whole time and the alpaca

thing and all of this has been one massive Floyd and Kane engagement in some off-brand way. He's still the head of media and no one knows it. Wow. Sigh off. Turn off that freaking sound. Hashtag sigh out.

And the earth is flat. For the men on that workout, I think I'm going to pick Justin. Colton. I have to see it to pick. Fikowski. Definitely not Fikowski. Wait, you're picking Justin for the inverted medley? Justin Medeiros?

Or Colton Mertens? I think Caleb picked Mertens. Colton Mertens. Is he good on his hands? I just imagine he'll be quick. Wow. Yeah. You're seeing the cycle speed? Yeah. The pull cycle speed.

Hey, Nick Matthew. Nick Matthew. Vellner. People are saying Vellner. Vellner. Vellner. He has never won a handstand walking event, though. Every handstand event he should be good at, he is not.

I mean, except the deadlift free handstanding push-up one. That was such an oddball event. Well, this one's pretty oddball, and it's got the free handstanding push-ups. I hope so. It'd be great. I hope so. He just always underwhelms me, and it's straight gymnastics workouts because you think he should win, and he hasn't in the past.

But I would love him to win, obviously. But, I mean, I picked Justin. Will Morehead. Ooh. I mean, I picked Justin. Will Moret. Ooh. Ooh. Ooh. Thanks for all the oohs. Thank you.

Ooh. Wow. Okay. So we got some big names, good names for both the men and the women. And the ski bag for time. That's got Colton's name all over it. Well, if the ski really doesn't mean anything, and I don't know if I buy that, but if it doesn't mean very much.

I buy it. I buy it. Then absolutely. And if I was Colton, I would ski slow. Don't even try to go ski fast. And then just – because I think Colton can go unbroken on the sandbag squats. He did 365 for 30. I think as long as his hands can stay around the bag,

I think he can do this unbroken. Chandler? So just go slow in the ski. Oh, and Sprague was talking about putting the bag on your shoulder. Mm-hmm. I mean, I think there's going to be some the bag on your shoulder. Mm-hmm. Your forefold will do that for sure. You think there's going to be some rules about where you can carry it? Yes.

Almost certainly. If they're skiing, though, you would think they'd have them hold it like this because your lats would be flexed the whole time, right? And so you're hurting the same muscles by skiing. I would think. Yeah, to blow it up beforehand so it makes it even tougher to hold it in that position people come out on that 30 really fast and now they have to hold that bag just to f you up on the back half yeah because as i say then the 20 calories on the

skier matters a lot more right so if you got all that time and attention with the 30 squats and then you tried to power output on that skier your biceps gonna be blown up you might see a lot of people fumble that bag and their last like five reps on the set of 20 might make for an exciting finish. It has to be there. Jonathan Ortega. I think it's going to be a really fun one to watch though.

Hey, all this all this might be good in the inverted medley too. Oh, yeah. He might be really good. Okay. I think Jeff Adler will be good at the ski squat? Yeah, I do. Even Colton would be my picks.

I do. Colton did mention that he's got some issues with his knee. Hey, does anyone do that unbroken? Colton. I stand by I think the winner will do it unbroken. God, that's savage. Yeah, that's crazy. Oh, and I think Colin Brander on the women's side.

Say again? Christine Colin Brander on the women's. Oh, that's a great pick for this one. Hey, you know who they have on the demo team? I just realized, too. They got Griffith Raleigh, dude. He could do it on broken, for sure. Yeah, if there's anyone out there that could do it on broken.

What about Luke Parker? Can he do something crazy on that? For sure. The bag's crazy, yeah. Talking about winning the event top 5 in that squat one Samuel Cornway, Alex Vigneault he's strong as shit

I'd pick those two over Luke Parker on that you think somebody does it unbroken and still doesn't win if multiple people do it unbroken then yeah nice true there's only one option if that is the case yes no they all went unbroken and it was a high oh you know today turner ellie turner's a good dark

horse for this workout a dark horse how you know what i hate dark horses wait ellie turner should win this one what do you mean ellie turner's gonna white horse her way to win this workout hey you know what i saw today he was just on fire it was uh bjorg and carl goodmanson just in crazy high spirits yeah looking sharp Looking sharp. All right. Good night. Cool. No, wait.

Wait, wait, wait. I have to pee. I want to end the show and get you out of my path. Make you leave. There you go. All right. Maybe it's just the only word for it. Yeah, that's not the correct definition. The internet's wrong.

Are there synonyms? It's one of those changed ones. What are you thinking about, Hiller? Probably this one. A sexual act where one naked man sits on another man's hairy back in the riding position and... god oh god it goes on and on hey remind me on the next one of this shit when the when the games are

over we'll do a whole show on that definition of the dark horse you should ask questions you should ask questions in the behind the scenes do you consider yourself a dark horse and then pull up that definition afterwards. Hillard, do you have a hemorrhoid?

No, I've been sitting on the floor because I was getting a hemorrhoid. He's in the booth. I have a habit of sitting on floors in hotel rooms at school. Tomorrow, we will be back at the venue bright and early. booth. I have a habit of sitting on floors in hotel rooms. It's cool. Tomorrow we will be back at the venue bright and early. Lots of pictures coming. I'm guessing

Hiller is going to continue to kill it. Everyone's been fantastic. It really is awesome. If you live anywhere near here and you can come to the event, you should come. It's really cool. I was surprised how crowded it was today, actually. I mean, it's a big campus, so it's still comfortable, but there were

a shitload of people there today. Anyway, we'll be bringing you tons of media. There's tons of media there. And that's it. Sousa, thank you. Caleb, thank you. John, thank you. Jeremy, thank you you I've been

called a dark horse many a time on that note we'll see you guys tomorrow bye bye
