Starting point is 00:00:33 Ernie, good morning. Kels, good morning. Paulina, hey. What's up, bro? Good morning. Congrats on the Colton beans over at Paper Street Coffee. Great work. Very cool with the t-shirt and all.
Starting point is 00:00:45 It's dope. Twice in the last week, I have heard from people that I get paid by CrossFit or that I'm contracted with CrossFit. You should know that I worked for a year for CrossFit for free. I guess I didn't work for them. I volunteered for a year. AndFit for free. I guess I didn't work for them. I volunteered for a year. And then that was like in 2006. And then in 2000, I don't know, seven or eight, I was hired
Starting point is 00:01:14 and I was working for CrossFit for a year or two. And then I was put on contract for a year. And then I was brought back on. And since then, when I was fired, I don't know what year I was fired. 2020, let's say. I have not received a single dime from CrossFit. And any cooperation that I've had from CrossFit, I truly appreciate, like getting access to the games. But I have not received a dime from them. I have not been contracted by them. And it's complete fucking insanity
Starting point is 00:01:46 to say that kind of shit so I just wanted to let you guys know that a couple morons keep spreading that rumor people you're very familiar with that I think most of you would agree were morons and shit starters. A matter of fact, a week before I went to the games, one of the biggest haters in the CrossFit space, someone who just spews venom and hates on CrossFit, Sporty Beth, tried to get me so that I couldn't go to the CrossFit Games and CrossFit panicked and wrote a four page letter letting everyone know on their staff that I they were no way affiliated with me. Oh, fix my mic. Thank you. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:02:36 Thank you. that that shit's pretty annoying when people say that i work for them or i've taken a dime from them when i um clearly have not taken a dime from them not even close not even close i it's cool that dave comes on it's cool that um if i want, I have access to text Don. I don't. If I text something to him, very rare. It's cool that I have, I don't know. I know people. I know Karin Thompson. I know she got a contract with them to help them with their health conference.
Starting point is 00:03:22 I know Kevin Ogar. I had him on yesterday. Should they pay me? Fuck Kevin Ogar I had him on yesterday should they pay me Kevin Ogar should they pay me yeah absolutely I'm the loudest voice in the space and I push their message more than anyone you know there was a lesson to be learned from Kevin Ogar
Starting point is 00:03:44 he comes up a lot I love Kevin I consider him a friend Yeah he had very nice things to say about you also Yeah I He appreciates what you've done for the world Yeah I And this is understatement
Starting point is 00:03:59 In saying that I encouraged his litigation Oh with the With the event organizers Where he got wounded, injured? Uh-huh. And that potentially and eventually did catch me up, from which I got excused. And so it wasn't entirely a selfish or nasty act. Maybe it had some of those flavors but i encouraged you because it was the right thing to do and what i'm wondering here as we talk about kevin because he's he's
Starting point is 00:04:37 famous in our community i wonder i wonder how many people know the lesson of kevin olga you guys are smart i mean like what was it what's it what's the takeaway don't put plates behind your lifting platform yeah there you go yeah i mean you know what's funny too if i had to make you feel so good caleb you got that right good job caleb you know feel proud but i'll tell you what I was sitting here thinking of all the fuckers I know that like you're talking about Kevin Olga Caleb's probably one of a thousand
Starting point is 00:05:12 that know that that know that because I'll tell you what I had to spend money to get it demonstrated clearly that the collection inventory behind the lifter was the cause of the injury. Oh, yeah. I forgot about that. Will you tell that story? I forgot about that.
Starting point is 00:05:35 I just did. I just did. And it wasn't cheap. But it was obvious to me, even though the original footage that I saw didn't give enough, it was clear to me that that bar was leaving then coming. Basically, the way the accident was described and the way the footage was presented didn't show it accurately. It was misleading. From what happened to Kevin, there was no lesson for him to learn. For organizers of those events, all the lessons on God's earth. He did everything right.
Starting point is 00:06:19 His dump was perfect. It was a good bailout. It was free and clear of him. It hit the inventory and came back. Severed his spinal cord. From an upward trajectory, about 45 degrees.
Starting point is 00:06:42 Kaboom! After a full bounce, off the inventory and the compelling evidence for that was the trajectory of the inventory what made those plates take off they got hit by what there's only one answer right there's only one answer. Right. Anyway, he was on the show yesterday. He's I love that kid.
Starting point is 00:07:11 Yeah, he's cool. He's a cool dude. Hard worker. The organizers needed to just roll over insurance wise and instead they were resistant pricks and made everyone that holds events look bad and what happened my broadcast pant uh sponsor espn
Starting point is 00:07:37 under the influence of other friends of crossfit reports the ogre industry the day before the games as a crossfit injury and the circumstance of that mishap would have never occurred on my watch the idea of the of of getting tangled up in your inventory had occurred to me probably 15 years prior to that accident you don't work out with anything you don't go overhead with any behind you, whether it's a weight tree, a garage door. You can barely excuse a cement floor being behind you as you lift overhead. Much less a dumbbell or a bicycle. Good morning, everyone. Hey, good morning, dude.
Starting point is 00:08:31 Hey, Greg, do you remember this? Practical advice, a little history. It's all right here, guys. Yeah. Do you remember when there was this statistic we came across? I don't remember the year it was but that basically i think we were around 7 000 gyms and there were 7 000 diabetes centers in the united states also and they were opening at the same click like every every two minutes and 40 seconds there was a
Starting point is 00:08:59 or every two hours there was a gym opening and every two hours there was a uh it's dialysis centers sorry sorry 70 it's 7500 let me tell the story it's 7500 we were neck and neck with with dialysis centers and so i got this dialysis finder app and put it on fucking full-blown save your life mode so it would beep and buzz and shit my phone would when i drive highway yeah and we're at lax and it's going off there's two there there's two dialysis centers at lax at the airport and what is the dialysis center you go in there and they switch it's a place it's a place where all your blood's removed and replaced with your blood minus some of what you need and a lot of what you don't need.
Starting point is 00:09:47 So it's for people who are insulin resistant, who they've eaten too much sugar. No, no, no, no, no. It's for ESRD5s, people that don't have kidney function. And so it's a man-made Nobel Prize winning, I think it's Hughes Medical Research Institute, apparatus that changes your blood. And it takes something like some crazy, I wouldn't even do it, like someone will call it, but an enormous amount of pure water for you to go through a two or three-hour treatment. We got to see behind the scenes in the dialysis center and here's what goes on in the back room and it's it's a fate it's a fate worse than death and this is for people that are
Starting point is 00:10:31 end-stage renal disease five that's it you're dead there's an esrd4 in your terminal there those people are those people are walking dead but five that's, that's the other side of life. And centers that do that are as numerous as CrossFit gyms. And so we put word out, hey, let's find a CrossFit gym that's in the same shopping as a dialysis center. And boom, we did several. Can you pull the photo up, Caleb? Of what? Did we run that picture Someone sent me this this morning
Starting point is 00:11:11 This is in Australia Diabetes Australia next to Ultra CrossFit There's a dialysis center Yeah but I don't know that that's a dialysis center Good enough for me I just thought it was a funny photo isn't all what they got i mean a lot of it's metabolic disease but there's there's other kind of fancier paths once you start using that service from a dialysis center you have like a five-year
Starting point is 00:11:39 survival rate right yeah i think it's i think's less. But that would be a max. I think the median... I think the mean... Look it up. I think it was three years. Judy, let Greg tell the story. Sevan, let Greg talk. Wadzami, Greg's fiery today.
Starting point is 00:11:59 Christine Young, Sevan getting spanked this morning. Dan Guerrero, Sevan, A for effort, buddy. Alright, everyone settle down. Man. Hey, did they surpass CrossFit gyms? Are there more dialysis centers now? I'm no longer in that. I no longer care
Starting point is 00:12:17 about either. I would think... I know CrossFit... I'm going to say the dialysis centers won Greg do you remember stories we would hear about people in dialysis centers and they'd be sitting in chairs getting their blood taken out and put in while they're
Starting point is 00:12:35 sipping a 32 ounce big gulp I got taken through I'm not even going to name the school they probably got canceled for bringing a counselor to drive through the bowels of their misery factory. But I've taken a firsthand tour. I've seen portions and aspects of dialysis that nobody's seen.
Starting point is 00:12:54 I've seen the chained inmate brought in with shackles like it's the Green Mile. Remember that? Yeah. They got that dude coming in, moving it half a mile an hour. He's as big as a Kodiak bear. And this guy's coming to get dialyzed at the university. And then he's going to go out the back door, down the elevator, and off. And there's no one in there who doesn't. It's got all the charm of a morgue.
Starting point is 00:13:29 Yeah, that guy. Greg saw that dude getting dialed. Yeah, but instead of the overalls, and look at that prison garb. Isn't that amazing? That must have been all they had to fit him, and that doesn't. But this guy was all in orange.
Starting point is 00:13:43 Looked like that dude. So sad. So sad. there was a woman sitting there that was getting dialyzed and she saw us and you know what she did she put her jacket over her head and i never looked over at again i was like i wanted to cry i couldn't even believe it like that she's at the depths of living and just didn't want to make eye contact with people being taken on a tour of their misery. I wouldn't go on another, I wouldn't go into another dialysis center. You couldn't pay me to go in. And I know you're not an expert in the environment,
Starting point is 00:14:18 but an environmental disaster, correct? Dialysis centers, just the, they're just, they're horrible for the environment. Sure. I'm an expert on environment. Oh my bad isn't everybody yeah everybody hey if greta thunberg is well right right yeah triple phd at that point i'm not a 16 year old stupid chick yeah no they go through i i someone look it up how much water is used. They told me and I was absolutely amazed. The amount of pure water that just goes down in the drain in the course of one session. You found it already, Caleb?
Starting point is 00:15:02 This is like a gross estimate for like everything. You found it already, Caleb? This is like a gross estimate for everything. Global annual water use for dialysis is 265 million, whatever that measurement is. Cubic meters. Yeah, cubic meters a year. There you go. Two-thirds of the water is represented by reverse osmosis, rejected water. No, brother, look up the volume of a small leg.
Starting point is 00:15:30 Yon Clark. Bonjour. Bonjour. Les garçons gays. I think this guy called us gay. By the way, someone posted in there that the Red Cross is asking about your vaccination status when you give blood. I looked into that and they said it was the fact checker said it's not true. The volume of water in a lake is usually expressed in acre feet.
Starting point is 00:15:55 One acre foot contains three hundred twenty five thousand gallons. Thirty two million gallons. million gallons. Just for your basic generic... Yeah, that's not what we're looking for, is it? I think we were looking at that was a volume. Wasn't that cubic meters?
Starting point is 00:16:20 Yeah. Give me cubic meters to gallons and then we can do the math. Did you see the footage of the little riot in the migrants' shelter in New York that happened yesterday? In a gym. Oh, was that a gymnasium? Yeah, a gymnasium with cops everywhere. Yeah, this black cop lady got hit with a backpack.
Starting point is 00:16:43 Flying backpack hits her in the head in the beginning of the video, bounces off her head. Can you imagine what would happen to you if you did that? I think the statue says bring us your huddled masses, doesn't it? Yeah. Sorry, Matt. Yeah, yeah. Sorry, Matt. You're right. Illegal aliens. My bad. generally and everywhere would stomp your dick into the dirt and throw you in the clink for misbehavior wouldn't this probably be very different wouldn't we wouldn't it be a natural filter to the people coming in i mean the nypd of old the people that were that were rude in
Starting point is 00:17:40 the shelter dude you'd be swallowing your teeth in at Rikers. A fate worse than Columbia or wherever the fuck you came from. But the overwhelming majority of those people are significant contributors to our way of life. We got a generation
Starting point is 00:18:01 of folks that aren't having babies. And that's going to spell great trouble for them in their later years, for those that aren't having the babies. And the few kids that they have, their lives will be shit. That's what happens when you let your population bottleneck. And it happens very, very quickly. Like idiocracy where all the dumb people have like 20 kids and all the smart people have no kids?
Starting point is 00:18:37 Yeah, yeah. But on average, it's EPG. So you have a generation and all of a sudden there isn't the wherewithal the network the structure to to take care of them imagine an end to social security it comes immediately upon a generation that says i we don't need kids yeah you ain't getting any we reported reported a story a couple weeks ago. You see that?
Starting point is 00:19:06 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, this is something that eighth graders in Kansas in 1850 could have been like, check, got it. and were it not for the flow of illegals into this country we would be much more vulnerable to that than we are that's the truth of it more vulnerable yes this check yes this generation that isn't having kids is another time bomb. They also don't have savings accounts and they're not homeowners. I don't know if you know, but there's a generation that has basically self-inflicted
Starting point is 00:19:56 poverty and misery for themselves and subsequent generations. They're also very, very, very left-leaning. Go ahead, Caleb. Do you mean the people that are renting homes or apartments? Yeah. They're not spending it on homes. They might be in same-sex arrangements, right?
Starting point is 00:20:16 They're LGBTQ, childless, less savings than any generation ever. What else? Pension-free, living worthless paycheck to worthless paycheck, dependent on the stimulus, but they got their fucking masks on. Yeah, the least healthy generation also. Good luck to them.
Starting point is 00:20:43 Hey, what do you mean self-inflicted? What do you mean self-inflicted what um self-inflicted what do you mean by that well that they're they're they're liberalism is a self-inflicted vow of poverty oh and it supported every every misstep they've made all the substitutions that they've adopted to just not be like mommy the interdependency they have with their parents like my buddy he becomes zen buddhist because his mother's baptist and she drives a cadillac so he's got a he's got a hybrid car right she's a republican so he's a democrat and on easter sunday when she's serving ham, his kids wanna know if they can't please him dead pig.
Starting point is 00:21:28 And dad says, no. And that interdependence, the view that I don't have because I'm not rapacious and didn't take that those that have are successful due to their guilt. All of that is the heart and soul of being a liberal, and it's also fundamentally about poverty. It's easier to be Jay-Z and pretend to be liberal than it is to really believe that shit and ever have a fucking thing
Starting point is 00:22:04 or accomplish anything for anyone including yourself or others Tank Reeves someone ought to send two bucks for that shit yeah I know a lot of right people that are renting and can't afford to buy a home you know there's
Starting point is 00:22:20 this there's this notion when you say you'll say stuff like yeah man there's a lot of pedophilia coming from the left. And people will be like, well, there's tons of pedophilia in the church too. The difference is the church isn't trying to normalize it. And the same thing is about being poor, and you'll have nothing, this W-E-F notion. You'll be poor and have nothing and love it. I want to respond to the comment about, you know, a lot of right people.
Starting point is 00:22:49 I'm not talking about, I think you're mishearing me. There might be a little cart before horse here. What I'm saying is that the belief in self and the values and the worldview that makes success possible is entirely incompatible with success. Wildly, completely incompatible with success. It's a vow of poverty. And I don't need anyone telling me about rich monks, people that took vows of poverty and got rich. I'm not talking about that.
Starting point is 00:23:38 I'm talking about the value set that is consistent with the success. They're now considered racist values. A vow of poverty and victimhood and all that stuff. Like these people- Oh, for sure, for sure. The example of the woman getting raped, but saying that she doesn't want to prosecute the guy because she can afford the therapy to help her with that, and the guy who raped her, he wasn't privileged like she was, so it's not his fault. There's a vow of some insanity.
Starting point is 00:24:29 The foolishness of attributing general capacities, character traits, and abilities on individuals based on that color, where the motivation or impetus for discrepancy is someone else's dislike or feelings about you, to lay that in front of someone is incapacitating. incapacitating. And so if you're raising Jews or black kids or
Starting point is 00:25:12 whatever, tell them from birth that the world hates them, that they have no chance, that the world's stacked against them, and you make the challenges, which are enormous, inordinate, of developing normally and grabbing the world by its ass and shaking it and finding success that looks like helping people and not having to live in mom and dad's basement when you're 40,
Starting point is 00:25:46 right? Being able to afford, have children and send them to decent schools and put a little fence around your property where you're safe from whatever is around you. Those things, This has been going on for a long time. And the totality of the left's position, that is there are people that are, you know, and the soft bigotry of low expectations is the fundamental racism of the left. Have you been following the Kansas City shooting? As much as there is to follow, it's pretty straightforward, isn't it? Right.
Starting point is 00:26:38 But just how they... Revelers had a dispute and settled it with gun violence. Right. But they had pictures of the people from day one and they refused to show the pictures. Whereas Kyle Rittenhouse was just exposed right away. It's still very difficult to find the pictures of the people. They got four people in custody.
Starting point is 00:27:04 Two adults. the pictures of the people they got four people in custody two adults you know what if it was a flea market it wouldn't have made the news anywhere right right but it was the chiefs and taylor swift was there and she scored a bunch of touchdowns and so everyone's really excited right and and people disrupted that sadly were black because that diminishes the story if it had been white people had it been christians it would have been a much much bigger story right yeah vittorio vittorio it happens uh every night in chicago yeah the thing is it's happening right two people are getting shot right now somewhere in the united states that's right yeah no what what matters is is is uh travis kelsey the chiefs taylor swift and what do you mean some people were shot
Starting point is 00:27:57 that's fucked up fuck that scene up That's fucked up. Fuck that scene up. Mama died. A lady with kids died. Got shot. Unarmed. Unarmed lady with kids.
Starting point is 00:28:21 Can you imagine going down there? No. And bringing your kids? No. going down there no bringing your kids no hey i went to the u.s to the uh waste management open had friends not this year last year right last year yeah last year, right? Last year. Yeah. Last year. And there's like, okay, check that shit right off my list. Right? And I'm glad he doesn't listen to this. Of course it ends like it does. Not that it's over, but I mean, they had problems. We had friends
Starting point is 00:29:09 there, I think you heard Sandy, but Mikey B was there. And they ended up in a throng of people where inhaling and exhaling took thought. Right. And he worried. And he's like, oh, so this is what happens and i hear from the organizer a story that is not even slightly at odds with that hundreds of thousands of people smashed into an area where there should be maybe a thousand people and and uh the pickup on the alcohol bottles from where the buses brought them in because the parking spots were underwater due to the freakish storm. It was, you know, dozens and dozens and dozens of trash bags full of disposable alcohol bottles.
Starting point is 00:29:59 Damn. From the bus to where the throngong pressed and so completely inebriated crowd a crazy crowd um hundreds and hundreds of cops there federal local Homeland Security right in big numbers it's the largest sporting event in the United States it is much bigger than the Super Bowl millions of people come to town wow yeah it's it's a wholly disruptive of our way of life and uh the uh expectations for behavior were significantly reduced. Is that over? Will they do it next year?
Starting point is 00:30:49 Will they do it next year? It'll be different. It will be different. Oh, so I mentioned all the police there. And what I was told by the organizers, that they're a hair away from a point of bedlam where the police had no impact at all. It's the same whether they're there or not.
Starting point is 00:31:10 They're as likely to be victims as they are to help. In other words, they can't do anything about 150,000 people panicked. You won't do anything with 300 cops. 1, 300 cops. A thousand cops. It's like being a cop in New York City. Arrests are up. The cops are doing their job.
Starting point is 00:31:36 They always do, which is amazing to me. Where are they up? In New York. Arrests her up. I'm ready for them to do what they did in – is it Ecuador where they arrested – El Salvador. El Salvador. He jailed 1% of the population.
Starting point is 00:32:00 And they went from the murder capital of the world to they didn't have a murder in six months. Someone just wrote in the comments that there's a murder in Chicago every 22 hours and a person shot every four hours, five hours. Crazy. Hey, that story that broke a few weeks ago where they were going to give away 53 – oh. Oh, yeah, that's one of the guys, few weeks ago where they were going to give away 53. Oh, oh, that. Yeah, that's one of the guys right from Kansas. Yeah, yeah, that's all. Yeah, that's him. The other one I can't find a smoke shot. Yeah, you have to find videos of the cops arresting them to see to see the guys. guys uh that story that we talked about uh a couple months ago where maybe a month ago where the mayor adams the city of new york was going to give away 53 million dollars in debit cards
Starting point is 00:32:54 well the story has changed it is this is crazy ready for this it's not that they're going to give away 53 million dollars in debit cards It's that the company they contracted with is a $53 million contract to just make and hand out the debit cards. But the actual amount that's going to be given out in debit cards has no limit and could go into the billions. I see. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:33:25 That it, what a twist, right? Earlier this month, the Post, go ahead. What a twist. And the economy that creates is larger and hidden. It's like the fantasy sports dwarfs the NFL's receipts, right? Did you know that? The NFL used that when it, in their, when they, when it went to the Supreme Court that, hey, that's our money. And the Supremes ruled,
Starting point is 00:33:50 no, actually it's not. The, it's the cartels that'll see the bulk of that economy. Oh, the cartels will get the money from New York State? No, there's a global economy created by, in New York, promising this unended largesse that reaches word in El Salvador and how am I going to get up there and the cartels that's what we do oh oh right right right
Starting point is 00:34:34 you've created a market like I did I think you should go to New York me? don't you need $10,000? I could use it. That'd be nice. I think all you have to do is turn your pockets inside out and rub some dirt on your face.
Starting point is 00:34:55 73 million Americans plan to wager on the NFL this year. Wow. I had no idea. So it dwarfs the actual NFL's economy, the betting economy. That came up in front of the Supremes, I believe. Wow, that's wild. I got a great video to show you. Will you play that video, Caleb, the transformation story?
Starting point is 00:35:30 You're going to love this, Greg. At least I loved it. Here we go. It's dangerous as fuck right now. I don't know if you guys can see. I have a couple scars on my face. I got a month and a half ago. Here we go. Republican. Like, yo. That shit'll change your life. I'll tell you right now. I woke up like we're putting Trump back in office, right? Like, where's daddy, dude?
Starting point is 00:36:15 Bring Giuliani back. How about that? The city is not safe, dude. We either get Batman or Trump, and y'all gotta fucking figure it out. Now, near as they... not safe. We'll either get Batman or Trump and y'all gotta fucking figure it out. It's true. Yeah, it's true, right?
Starting point is 00:36:32 You just need to get mugged. If you're not a Republican, you need to get mugged. Send that to me, would you? In a text? Hey, did you like either of the videos I sent you? Oh my God, the Purge one is crazy. Crump, who solved – it's the bottom one, Caleb.
Starting point is 00:36:52 Go ahead and pull that article up. That article is amazing. Do you want those? Yeah. Let me just pull up the video of him saying it. Sure, sure, yeah. I didn't even watch the video. I just caught on
Starting point is 00:37:05 Man, this is wild shit This is Reverend Al Sharpton Speaking with Another activist Who's an attorney, something, Ben Crump This is unbelievable here We can get rid of all the crime In America overnight
Starting point is 00:37:22 Just like that And people ask how, Attorney Crump Change the definition of crime We can get rid of all the crime in America overnight, just like that. And people ask how, Attorney Crump. Change the definition of crime. Of course. If you get to define what conduct is going to be made criminal, you can predict who the criminal is going to be.
Starting point is 00:37:37 It sounds like we're criminal, though. Our existence is criminal. But they made the laws. They made the laws to criminalize our coaches, black coaches. I mean, and so when I think of Eric Garner, I always think of stuff like that. Lucid cigarette, we can get rid of all the crime. So the notion here, what he said, if I heard correctly, is that black people are thieves and all we have to do so that they're not thieves is make it legal to steal.
Starting point is 00:38:08 I'm going to accept it around drugs and maybe even the Biden-esque excessive sentences attached to behaviors that there was some motivation for because of the preponderance of blacks would affect. I believe that. The people I see on the Internet, Greg, dying from drugs are white people. And the people I see stealing in the stores on the Internet are black people. I'm not saying that the Internet's right, but white people seem to be dying from all the fentanyl. I haven't seen one black person.
Starting point is 00:38:42 The problem I have with it the problem i have with it is we is fixing a problem by by changing a definition yeah right that's my problem the problem i have with black crime isn't weed it's shooting at each other right right right and and and the problem i have is is even with arrests of types of crimes like the smash and grabs going unsolved, unreported, untreated, but we all get to watch them on TV. That's where I see society failing. But look, to get you to think about it, why don't we apply this disease? Give me a disease you don't like, and then I'm going to give you a list of symptoms I removed from the definition, and you no longer have it. You're cured.
Starting point is 00:39:38 It's got a head in the sand aspect to it that's tragic. And it serves the Black community less well. And if you got laws that are over strict in the Black community, if you're more tolerant of weeds with white kids than you are Black kids consistently, it probably bodes well for the black kids. The problem is that behaviors up to and including felonies are largely ignored. Dude, we were in the local donut shop on First Avenue and the lady told us, when I say there's a gun in the parking lot, they want to know if they're shooting at someone. And unless you get a yes, police
Starting point is 00:40:29 are not coming. Sousa lives in Livermore and twice this month he's been in the supermarket there and he's seen people stealing and just walking out of the store and not paying. And now that I think about it, six months ago someone followed him out to his car and he's seen people stealing and just uh just walking out of the store and not paying and also and now that i think about it six months ago someone followed him out to his car and he circled back on him and that's in that that's in livermore and then gavin newsom was in a target
Starting point is 00:40:55 recently and people were just stealing right in front of him he missed two things newsom did. He missed the state's disinterest in the larceny up to what, $1,000, 900 something, they picked some magic number, and was related to that first thing, was seemingly completely unaware of it. Right? You can go on and on. It's not worth it. You think it's going to get, you think it's going to, there's going to be a reversal at some point?
Starting point is 00:41:48 We're going to change course? No, he seemingly, he tells the story willingly and swears to God it's true. Right. Something everyone has seen the effects of. And so that means he lives in a world where he's been isolated from his own proclamations and beliefs. It's the worst kind of wealthy. You know, to talk about poor people eating ice cream in front of a $50,000 refrigerator. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:42:20 Yeah, yeah. There's people that understand that. He's got to let them eat cake quality to him that you see in the hairdo. Dude, we're all locked down and he's going out to eat in fancy restaurants that are supposed to be closed. With pharmaceutical reps. Yeah. And meanwhile, we're locked down what? Well, it depends on who you are. And meanwhile, we're locked down.
Starting point is 00:42:42 What? Well, it depends on who you are. Right. I'm Grubhub and by the pool, but there's people that are in tenements that have plywood for windows and they don't spend any time indoors except just sleep. Call her. Hi. Hey, what's up, guys? Is that all right?
Starting point is 00:43:04 We switched to a little bit of affiliate talk. Sure. Who is this? My name is Marat from Georgia. Hey, what's up, guys? Is that all right if we switch to a little bit of affiliate talk? Sure. Who is this? My name is Murat, calling from Georgia. Hey, Murat. Murat, what are you? What's your ethnicity? Are you related to me? No, I'm Ukrainian. Okay, Murat. Sounds like something Lebanese or something. All right. Yeah, I get that a lot. Murat, M-U-R-A-T, but I'm M-A-R-A-T.
Starting point is 00:43:24 What's up, brother? So I'd love the opportunity to talk to Greg. I'm a two-year affiliate owner and started doing CrossFit actually in 2007, getting kicked out of globalgymsfollowing.com. 2011, joined my first affiliate. 2013, 2011, joined my first affiliate. 2013, started coaching, you know, kind of taking that journey. I grew up in New Jersey and during the pandemic, got the hell out of that state and moved down south to a red state where they had freedom still. And then the opportunity presented itself to open an affiliate. You know, the idea was for my wife and I to join the local affiliate, but we tried it out and it was kind of lacking what we were used to. We came from an
Starting point is 00:44:12 amazing affiliate in New Jersey, Gorilla Fitness CrossFit Paramus. Shout out to Joe and the crew because, you know, best CrossFit gym I've been to. So we opened up our own gym and, you know, at first it was going well, but, you know, struggling right now. So I'd love to give Greg's take on it. You know, membership is low. You know, we get compliments all the time about our coaching, but I don't know if it's just the area we're in, time, state of the world, you know, what can I do to kind of try to drive more people in? Is that your only job, running the affiliate? No, it was. And I wasn't paying the bills.
Starting point is 00:44:54 So I'm actually driving into my new full-time job now, too. So now I'm double duty. Double duty. Coaching some mornings and going to full time job, coaching some evenings, also coaching my son's hockey team. So morning and night, I'm at it. It's tough. Murat, what's the community like at your gym? So we have a small base membership, but man, I'll tell you, the people that are there love it.
Starting point is 00:45:29 All get along great. Hang out outside of the gym. You know, and I'm really making changes in these people's lives. And, you know, we are getting to the point where we're talking about possibly needing to shut down. And like, I just can't stand the idea of these people not having our gym to go to. Like, I just can't stand the idea of these people not having our gym to go to. How many members? We're only at like 30 now. Down a lot recently. And your rent alone is more than those 30 members?
Starting point is 00:45:58 Whew. Speaking of rent, on top of my electric going up gas going up everything um insurance my rent is going up an extra thousand dollars in a couple months and it's crazy hey dude um uh suza has spoken at length that the passion the era of the passion gyms are over the era of people opening gyms uh because they love crossfit and they want to change people's lives are over I've heard it I've heard of that and I don't know that that could be I don't know but I I tell you and I don't know what you what you should do and it's hard for me even to say what I would do. We're in some turf here I don't quite have expertise on,
Starting point is 00:46:49 but I do have a strong sense of a recommendation for you. And it's that you go to Krispy Kreme and get a $50 box of donuts and a $35 box of or two of Starbucks coffee, and you have them all sit down with you and talk about what's wrong. And I would listen to them and either try what they think or I would shut my doors. You mean the 30 clients, Greg, have a powwow with your membership?
Starting point is 00:47:22 With the 30 that are left. And it's not $100 worth of coffee. When people do leave, and I understand life. People leave for various reasons. Cost is a big one right now. I understand. I get it. Yeah, I understand that.
Starting point is 00:47:41 I'm not upset about that with them because you go to the grocery store, you can't walk out without spending $300. It's insane right now. When times are tough, I understand that almost $200 in membership is the first thing to go. of the things that are Biden's fault, we need to make sure that somehow there's something in your culture or from you that's contributing. And the 30 that are left may have a sense of that. And I would just want to hear them out on the very serious subject of, are we going to be here come summertime? We need to sit and talk about it. Maybe a different structure is required where there's a membership fees and, you know, people that sit on the plank holders list that pays some rent for a while.
Starting point is 00:48:42 But I don't think you have an obligation to lose money to something trying to help any number of people, whether it's 35 or 150. Yeah. I mean, I agree with you. I'm not one to blame what's going on around. I always try to look internally and see what I could do to fix it. And, you know, people, we ask them, we asked them, we asked them about, you know, what do you think of the coaching program and cleanliness of the gym,
Starting point is 00:49:10 all that things. It's I'd say 90% always so positive. That's why I have a hard time even thinking like, what can we do better? You know, we try to do some more community events. We have the open coming up, you know. The Open last year was great for us. I'm hoping that kind of sparks things again. And we do have people coming in constantly. We have a very good conversion rate. If somebody tries a class, I'd say 75% of them sign up.
Starting point is 00:49:39 But it's a matter of... Well, Mariah, if everything is perfect and you're still having trouble making ends meet, I would focus on the day job. But before that, I think I would want to maybe step outside of my own assumptions briefly. And with $100 worth of coffee and donuts, I would sit down with those people and let them know that this might be our last meeting. What do y'all think? That's a good idea.
Starting point is 00:50:14 And if I didn't get insights or encouragement out of that, that's what it would be. It would be the last meeting. Because there's no upside to you losing money or suffering trying to help people. It's not that kind of thing. And no... Are they losing cable TV and shit, you know? Right, exactly, yeah. You know, like my dad ran a successful business. He said the same thing.
Starting point is 00:50:43 He said, you know, your can't, you can't, your life can't suffer just because you want to help other people. Murat, my kids go to a jujitsu gym, right? And I make it my responsibility to talk to, and it's a great gym. And it's a, it's a, it's a cornerstone of, of kind of my kid's life, right? We're there at the gym five days a week. And I make it my duty to tell other parents about the gym. And I want my those two jujitsu instructors to be wealthy and successful. And so maybe that's one of the things you can say to those people like,
Starting point is 00:51:15 hey, you guys, this is our clubhouse. And I, if you guys want it to stick around, you guys have to start talking to people about it. Each of you has to bring in, stick around, you guys have to start talking to people about it. Each of you has to bring in, you know, help me and start bringing people in and be like, Hey, I need you just straight up. Just say, Hey, I need your help. Now those, they should be doing it anyway. Like no one's ever told me to do that, but I know that just for being in the position I'm in with in the value I see in the gym. But for me, the gym can't fail because it's for my kids. And so those people, I'm sure those 30 people, if they're the way you say they are, and I believe you, that they don't want it to go away too, that they're going to be heartbroken. And so for them, if you just give them a little nudge, they might not have an issue finding one client each for you. And then boom, just like that, your clientele will have doubled. Yeah, yeah. Those are all good ideas i'll definitely have that you know coffee and donut powwow do you have an issue with that greg asking the clients like hey guys if you're
Starting point is 00:52:10 like this tell some friends bring some people in yeah i would like to see i mean if in the sit down they each said i got five people who want to join i'll be out okay okay. I don't know what you think about that, but I need them. Right. Well, listen, guys. We need them. Before I go, I do want to thank you, Greg, for everything you've done.
Starting point is 00:52:37 CrossFit, it's truly life-changing. It's changed my life for the better. I've been following it for a very long time. I could have opened any kind of gym I wanted to. I chose CrossFit for the better. You know, I've been following it for a very long time. You know, I could have opened any kind of gym I wanted to. I chose CrossFit for the methodology. I wanted to pay tribute to what you have done. So, Greg, thank you very much for all you've done. Thank you, Mariah. And if it comes to a point where, you know, you pay tribute to me in application of the methodology on anyone. If it's just you and your Aunt Mildred and you're showing her some things, I'm proud of you for it.
Starting point is 00:53:12 And so flying the flag... Yeah, flying the flag isn't an important part of having some things in my direction. And I thank you for making my life's work real, giving it, bringing it to expression. Yeah, you're welcome, sir. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:53:40 Hey, Murat, stay in touch. Good luck. Murat, have you read any of Two Brain Businesses books or looked at any of Chris Cooper's stuff? I actually worked with them for a little bit after he was on your podcast the first time. Okay, great. It just didn't work out for me. Everything that we tried to do, it just didn't work. So we kind of split off.
Starting point is 00:54:00 All right, cool. All right. Good definition. Hey, how far? Thanks so much. Murat, I'm not trying to find out where you are in any precise sense, but how far is your gym from, say, a Walmart? Maybe 15 minutes. How many miles is that?
Starting point is 00:54:24 Like five. How far are you from a Costco? About the same distance. How many high schools serve your immediate area? Immediate area, I think two. Okay. And the high schools are packed. They're overcrowded.
Starting point is 00:54:49 Yeah. So there's... I get what you're... Yeah, I get what you're asking. You know, end of the day, it might not have been the very, very best area to open a gym in, but it is up and coming. They're building a ton around a lot of new
Starting point is 00:55:06 communities it's just kind of going slower than i would have slower than i would have hoped yeah and how long have you been in town two and a half years gym two years and what's the commercial facilities that you think are in the area for your sense of the area? What's there? There's a lot here. Being in the South, there's a lot of fast food. Okay, yeah. So there's an LA fitness? Is there
Starting point is 00:55:37 Anytime Fitness? Yeah, there's Anytime Fitness five minutes away. The next closest CrossFit gym is about 15 minutes from us. But then if you go like 20 minutes from us, there's a pocket of a bunch of affiliates. There's a lot around, but the culture down here is very much fast food and beer. I'm trying to change that one person at a time, but, you know, it's tough. Are you having fun while you're coaching?
Starting point is 00:56:13 Oh, I love coaching. The hour I get with those people, you know, I absolutely love it. I've been getting up. I got one last question. I'm going to let you go. Yeah. How often is there laughter? Every class,
Starting point is 00:56:28 every class. All right. Yeah. You need some, you need some donuts and coffee and have a powwow. Murat, Matt Schindeldecker also made a comment. Seve,
Starting point is 00:56:38 maybe we can help him start one of our general probation programs. Matt has a very successful program he's running uh that does generate quite a bit of revenue for gyms uh if you can get it up and going in regards to bringing kids in instead of them going to juvenile hall they come to his gym and uh that that it's an incredible program and it's on fire in ohio it is truly on fire in ohio can you have him put his email address in the comments and then i'll go back and watch and email him okay cool matt will you put your uh uh email in the comments uh so murat can contact you all right cool thanks dude thanks so much you guys have a great day yep bye bye good luck
Starting point is 00:57:17 braylon tender fitness competitor $1.99. Men's Testosterone Empowerment Summit coming. Great. Thank you, Braylon. What is it? Is that a real thing? No, this guy. This guy. He's an up-and-coming games athlete. He's trying to coach the best. He is a...
Starting point is 00:57:41 Whenever we're not being funny, he helps us out. He's on my payroll. Braylon, a high testosterone man is the greatest gift you can give a woman. There you go. You're a good dude. Because of the shrunken balls? Or the hair loss? I'm very real, brother.
Starting point is 00:58:03 You'll see me in the podium in 2025 I understand thank you you're the next big thing buddy and I appreciate your viewership thank you very much Caleb could you play this a video that says police
Starting point is 00:58:21 I really enjoyed this one too. I love videos like this. Not only because of the misdirection, but it's how every human being should be. This guy's awesome. Here we go. I pulled over at 3 in the morning country times and still got respect.
Starting point is 00:58:40 I cut all my lights on, put my keys in my fucking ID on top of the window and cross my arms and roll every window down. I do all my lights on, put my keys in my fucking ID on top of the window and cross my arms and roll every window down. I do the same thing. You know why? Not because I'm black. Because I got enough respect for your job.
Starting point is 00:58:55 I don't know what the fuck you deal with every day. You all listen to dispatches of rape, killing, stealing, all this shit every day. So from my knowledge, you're just as gangsters. If not worse than a guy on the streets, you actually need to get mental evaluations of everyone because you
Starting point is 00:59:11 think life is full of corruption because that's all you work in. I actually can sympathize with you, so let me help you out. I've always been like this. When I was younger, police would sit me down and give me an ID. I'd give them my social security number back then. They're like, damn, you think I'm not hot? At least out of this group, I'm When I was younger, police would sit me down and give me an ID. I'd give them my social security number. They're like, damn, you think I'm not hot?
Starting point is 00:59:30 So at least out of this group, I'm not your threat. And then how do cops treat you when you do that? Way different. I'm pulled over at 3 in the morning, country time. The only people getting shot are the people resisting arrest. Send that to me. Yeah. 27 shows, and Greg's never asked for one of my clips now i got two i know today i'm two and two and oh today
Starting point is 00:59:53 oh i love it i think there are i think there are more black people like that than not of course of course of course of, of course, of course. You just don't see them on MSNBC. A black person afraid of their neighbors isn't worthy of a TV show. A black person that hates the cops is. Right. Hey, dude, that's just that's just common sense. There's dudes in our society who we pay taxes to, who cruise around with guns, who look for threats.
Starting point is 01:00:46 Avoid those guys. Be cool to those guys. If you listen to a black cop talk to you, and I have, I do, I have a close friend and neighbor who's a black cop. In fact, he was Secret Service. And he can talk racism, and he does, and he's got important and tragic and sometimes funny things to say about it but most of what he says he sounds he has really the same story to tell as a white cop It's not a different story. Right. It's a cop's story. A white cop doesn't enjoy working in a black neighborhood. A black cop doesn't like working in a black neighborhood.
Starting point is 01:01:46 A black cop doesn't like working in a black neighborhood. A black neighborhood makes a black cop cry. And want to get out. The white cop just wants to get out. There's your difference. The black cop cries for his people god that's good hey what what we're shown on cnn What we're shown on CNN about black people is wildly non-representative, both of politicians and rioters, protesters and organizations. That's a wrap.
Starting point is 01:03:01 That's a moment in silence, isn't it? I remember my first time going down to West Hollywood with my dad I was probably I don't know 7 years old And it's all Armenians It's like a 10 square block area of Armenians And I remember tripping on
Starting point is 01:03:29 it was my first time kind of like seeing the culture of my people right and it was so different than the way i was brought up just even the whole la culture was so different than the way i was brought up but it is it but i was, but, um, it was, uh, it was not the way I would want to live. Let's put it that way. It was, uh, it was granted. They were a shitload of immigrants so that they were poor, but, um, even, even the first night my dad parked his van in an all Armenian neighborhood, I was sleeping in the van and someone tried to break into it. van in an all-Armenian neighborhood, I was sleeping in the van, and someone tried to break into it.
Starting point is 01:04:15 And I remember that feeling. I was sad to be Armenian for a second. I was sad that Armenians were like that. But I had never been around any other Armenians, you know what I mean, what did i see what did i see about japan the other day i was they were i saw a video side by side of a apple store in japan and a apple store in oakland have you seen that the products the products in japan, none of them are locked down. They're just like, you can pick anything up. You can touch anything. And the store in Oakland is, is robbed once a week.
Starting point is 01:04:54 And they just showed all these videos of it. And everything's attached to a steel cable. In my, in my, on fourth street in berkeley there were so many robberies at the apple store there were like three a week that the berkeley pd set up a uh police station on in the in the street there like they brought in all the buses and they just set up a police station there after like six months of just like you know three to four robberies a week you know it'd be a great video they should set up an apple store and load it up with everything and then right when they when the gang comes in you just hear this trunk and the entire store is a cage
Starting point is 01:05:42 yeah surrounded by a cage and everyone that works at the Apple store is a guard and has a gun. It just, you turn it into a jail right then. I was thinking you just open another door and let a lion in there. This is crazy, dude. are you seeing this shit and oh there's a cop car out front look at that shit opd out front oh my god i know exactly where that is that's right by where i used to live holy shit i don't need i don't think that's that's not the um i don't even know if that's in oakland what's he doing?
Starting point is 01:06:25 I don't understand what that motion was. He didn't put all those phones in his pants. He's ripping the cables. Yeah, he is. He did put them all in his pants. He's doing four at a time. You can see him hanging out of his legs at the end, like his pant legs.
Starting point is 01:06:41 They're like stuck at the bottom of his pant legs. Right there. All right. Like his pant legs. They're like stuck at the bottom of his pant legs. Right there. Man. Alright. I mean, can't they track those phones? They probably don't even have SIM cards in them. They're just factory iPhones. Yeah, but you know, when we activate a phone,
Starting point is 01:07:04 there's shit that's needed that's not sim hey that guy back there would go ahead say that again oh yeah yeah not sim yeah right there's a there's a shit ton of numbers that are sitting on a deactivated phone that you give along with the numbers that contain the sim no yeah they've got like yours the serial number and whatever like basically like i don't know this eid and what is that there was a there's there's numbers on the box right right you buy a phone that isn't tethered isn't whatever they call it i got one over here and it needs a carrier
Starting point is 01:07:47 and it has shit on the side that the carrier is going to want in fact they all got internal sims now I think Apple can track any of their products hey did you ever see the video of the of the
Starting point is 01:08:04 shipping container that went overboard on a boat um and it was full of iphones and it's floating in the sea and the guys pull up next to it and they use a saw and they cut it open they don't know what's in it and they the fucking the it's in the middle like just you know like the indian ocean and it's a bunch of just you know just like and they got him. And the guys can't even believe it. And they start taking iPhones out of it. And you're just seeing iPhones just pouring into the ocean. It's fucking, it's a good amount.
Starting point is 01:08:34 They, cause they, they didn't know what was in the container. It's just some guys like who look like they're malnourished at sea and they pull. Yeah. These guys, this shit's crazy. Look at, they cut open the side and then look at it. They got like a billion dollars in cell phones. It looks like, look at them. Send that to me too.
Starting point is 01:08:53 Look at them just pouring out into the Indian ocean. Look at them. Where are they pouring out? Just into the ocean. Yeah. iPhones drowned in the ocean. They're not putting them on their boat? They're trying to. Yeah trying to but they're just
Starting point is 01:09:09 Are these special needs pirates I don't think these are pirates I think these are just dudes who just like Hey let's see what's in this box They're like oh there's a floating shipping container Let's see They're already waterlogged I don't know those are waterproof
Starting point is 01:09:25 they're probably good for you could probably scoop those up with a net and use them this was another great video do you remember this one uh thousands of people showed they said that they were giving don't they know they need a bigger hole they actually show in the video some video they actually show them cutting the hole open. You know, they're, you know, they're just, they're just minutes away from sending a dude in there. Oh, right, right. And yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:58 This was a great video too. This was an old video. I want to say it was from the 80s. It was, but it was a video of, they told people you could get free NFL tickets. And people showed up like a thousand people showed up and then they were just taking them all to jail. God, that was fucking that was amazing. They call you into a room and then they're like, oh, we have a warrant for your arrest and you don't get any free NFL tickets. They just arrest you.
Starting point is 01:10:24 It's better than an Amazon scam. That's great. Yeah, 1985. That's when that was. They probably couldn't, for some reason, that shit wouldn't, you couldn't do that shit today, I bet. Yeah, isn't that like
Starting point is 01:10:39 entrapment or something? The Department of Defense has been spying on Tucker Carlson. Let that sink in. The military is spying on American citizens and now they want to let illegal aliens into the military. What do you mean they're spying
Starting point is 01:10:56 on Tucker Carlson? Yeah, I think they admitted it to him, right? They were reading his text messages. Three years ago. That's when that was? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:17 What a mess. What was any sense of the pretext? Here's an article. Janelle says they spy on everyone, though. Didn't we already know that basically all our iPhones or everything is being recorded by the NSA? I mean, that's not a conspiracy theory. We've known that forever, right? Fox News' Tucker Carlson said this week that the National Security Agency is spying on him as part of a
Starting point is 01:11:46 plan to knock his show off the air. NSA promptly denied the allegation, saying it focuses exclusively on foreign targets. So how old is this? Three years ago. From when he was on the air? When he was on Fox, yeah. So how old is this? Three years ago. From when he was on the air?
Starting point is 01:12:08 When he was on Fox, yeah. I think it's widely known that every single phone call you make and everything is being recorded. Not that people are listening to it, but that it's all being harvested. which, which allows them to say stuff to, uh, to, uh, 22 year old New York times, female reporters that they just don't hear it.
Starting point is 01:12:36 Explain. I didn't, I'm not following you. Um, we haven't bugged. You can just pick anyone, any, anyone that you could puzzle. We haven't bugged you can just pick anyone anyone that you can we haven't bugged their phone
Starting point is 01:12:48 we're not listening to their calls there's no wiretap all you can see is go on and on and on but we do have the phone call oh right right oh right right right there was no wiretap nobody was bugged there's no alarm but we have the call
Starting point is 01:13:04 and here's the deal there is no call There was no wiretap. Nobody was bugged. There's no warrant, but we have the call. And here's the deal. There is no call they do not have. So your FISA warrant, you get to pick a start date. I'll take 1997. A phone call has not been made that has not been captured there how's that a surprise tucker said they read his putin trip plans that only would have been revealed in his encrypted conversation on signal app uh oh come on putin putin knew his fucking trip plans that meant meant we did. Right.
Starting point is 01:13:46 Putin's not able to secretly communicate with his people, with his defense staff. Whatever line that is between he and his generals, we're on it too. Yeah, it was... It doesn't matter. we're on it too yeah it was it doesn't matter he does it there's nothing there's nothing in his world his imagination in a likely scenario that looks like his military engaging hours that's about that's as likely to happen as i am to meet tyson at the 7-eleven and kick the living shit out of them mike tyson yeah yeah he mike tyson knows it wouldn't happen i know it wouldn't happen and everyone in the world
Starting point is 01:14:34 knows it wouldn't happen and this is this is the conflict between the u.s and russia there's only one type of conflict that can even be imagined by anyone to look like anything other than a one-sided mess, and that's nuclear. That would be a one-sided mess. And guess who knows that better than anyone? Crazy or not, fucking Putin. Dude, he's getting his ass kicked by Ukrainian crap there is no NATO country that couldn't
Starting point is 01:15:10 kill everything he owns in about 90 minutes time every fucking tank everything it all goes that 40 mile long column of fucking armored vehicles and tanks
Starting point is 01:15:25 that's an hour at best Sergio I mean Caleb I DM'd you a video worth playing with Greg being on listen listen 9 out of 10 no 99 out of 100 times you guys send me something live on the air, it's not worth showing. But I'll take your money.
Starting point is 01:15:48 Thank you, Jeremy. I was going to proof it first. I remember this. I remember the Snowden thing. And I think what I remember what was happening is, is if you were using Yahoo, basically they were taking a picture using your computer camera of every single person who is on the server or on their browser every five seconds and how it leaked. Do you remember how it leaked? There were, it's all men there working at the NSA and they were going through and picking out all the best pictures and passing them around. You remember that? And it started, they started leaking. They started leaking. Do you remember that story? And that's how the whole story broke that they were basically recording and harvesting.
Starting point is 01:16:33 Anyone who basically has a computer camera, they're grabbing photos of you. Wouldn't you? If I could do that, grab photos off of everyone's and just have them stored somewhere? I read that every captain, every naval ship has an office with an LG TV and the Chinese were in control of the cameras on the LG TVs and have been listening and watching. And every captain on every vessel's quarters for, it went on for about two and a half years. And that's an amazing thing, right?
Starting point is 01:17:12 Oh, captains of what? Sorry, I missed that. Of every naval vessel. Oh, oh. The captain of that vessel has a, has quarters. It has an LG TV, whether it's huge or little. And those LG TVs have cameras and mics that were in the control of the Chinese. Yeah, that's wild.
Starting point is 01:17:33 And that story, all of the amazingness of it disappears if you'll just do this for a moment. Put yourself in the chinese position right and think of how simple the idea is and how easy it must have been to execute and how of course the whole fucking thing is would you sure yeah yeah yeah of course of course could Well, we know they did. I'd fly a balloon over your country, too, and take pictures. Right. Hang one over the part of your nuclear arsenal that we have the most questions about. And what are they going to do? Shoot it down? What's on it? Nothing. Cameras, sensors. So what? Weather balloon.
Starting point is 01:18:24 Too complicated to explain to to uh female times reporters that's all you have to do you can get away with anything if it's smarter than the 22 year old girls at the new york times maybe some of them are 32 but kids aging now kids that kids that wouldn't have found success probably in any major other than their chosen if if uh i'm switching gears here a little bit um 365 million uh interactions with the public a year that's what the estimates are that police have with the public. And I think it was in 2019. I can't remember the exact year, but there were 12 unarmed black men who were shot, all of which resist resisted arrest. I'm not justifying the shooting, even though I probably could look at each case and justify it.
Starting point is 01:19:20 So if you see that statistic, you know, the chance of you getting shot are very slim, but you know what the strongest correlate is, right? It's you resisted arrest in that, in that, um, and I'm conflating things a little bit because of those 365 million stops. Those weren't all black people. They're probably mostly white people, but you get the picture. You can still extrapolate some data from it if you resist arrest that the the rarity that people get shot who are unarmed the resisting arrest seems to be uh the strongest point of uh obvious sign of cause like hey do not resist arrest my point is this that that does not take that takes like a retard could figure that out any anybody could figure that out. You, Ivan, you have been following this show for two years now, and you only say negative shit. Like you have a serious mental disorder. You're the guy that hits yourself on the thumb with a hammer and does it repeatedly every single day so we already know you have a mental disorder so no one no one wants to fuck with you dude
Starting point is 01:20:29 like you're in every comment this is one of those guys i told you about people this guy uh um uh the the 12 daily doses and there's one other one the dc 100 guys like you guys are just in why do you do it to yourself? Why don't you watch something else like Captain Kangaroo or Pee Wee Herman? Just switch the channel, dude. People are avoiding you not because of the topics you bring up, because you're mentally insane. That's free. That's free psychiatric treatment from me.
Starting point is 01:21:01 Just beat it. Okay. Wow. Was that customer service, like level four? Yes, level five. That was level five. Thank you, though, for recognizing. It's like, dude. Tell him if he really hates you. He should send money. Yes, thank you. At least 12 daily doses used to send a lot send money. Yes, thank you. At least 12 Daily Doses used to send a lot of money. What is 12 Daily Doses? I know who it is. He doesn't hide it. It's this guy, Flange or something.
Starting point is 01:21:37 Flange? I forget his name. This guy this morning was making posts that I take money from HQ. It's like, dude, this guy says the most insane shit ever. You were going over those stats, and the thing that seemed to place a big role, the thing that I kept hearing was resisting arrest. Oh, yeah. Right? Say that again. Resisting, yeah, resisting arrest. The 12 guys who were shot were all resisting arrest.
Starting point is 01:22:17 And what do you think that, what does resisting arrest mean to people, I wonder? I think we get trained you to put your hands I think it means a wrestling match There must have been some wrestling Well When I tell you to put your hands on the steering wheel 15 times And you're screaming and reaching for the glove box That's
Starting point is 01:22:40 I'll lump that up in the category Of Resisting arrest I don't know that's uh i'll lump that up in the category of um resisting arrest i i don't know what i don't know what technically it is but what i saw george floyd doing that was fucking batshit crazy i can't imagine a cop telling me to keep my hands on the steering wheel 12 times and not fucking just getting pepper sprayed. Unless you're on fentanyl. It was resisting in every sense, but I suspect that the things
Starting point is 01:23:11 were shown, the wrestling match deals are less than typical. I imagine myself like this if i'm making a a felony stop and if there's any discussion at all of this guy just shot this guy or robbed this place or you know and if the name's known to me, and this is, Joey just got out, did five of 15 and shot his girlfriend at Popeyes,
Starting point is 01:23:57 and I'm pulling him over two miles away from Popeyes. Let me tell you what resisting arrest might be like. It might be as he's backing out of the car carefully, he might fart. And I accidentally might fucking empty on him. Because the precaution taken against people not showing their hands is very typically the very last thing the police officer will ever witness throughout his life. That's it.
Starting point is 01:24:34 It's done. He's seconds from dead. Michael Brown. Michael Brown. Anything but showing your fucking hands. Yeah. If you're going to be a good cop, good cops don't play the
Starting point is 01:24:51 I'm not taking my hands out of my sweatshirt game. I'll put five in your center line and take your hands out of your hoodie for you. I hope there's a gun, but I'm not paid to play that game. No cop is. That's not. And folks, if that seems weird to you, well, you just don't live on planet Earth.
Starting point is 01:25:15 How about Mike Brown? Cops will do that until there won't be cops. Then we'll go back to there are cops. Our cops, when Biden is serving or OAC or anyone else their term, whomever the cops are under any regime, if your hands are in your hoodie and those cops say pull them out and you don't, they're going to put five on center line and take your hands out for you. That part will never change. And you can be as idealistic as you want. I think we're going to call in a behavioral specialist. No, you're dealing with a behavioral specialist.
Starting point is 01:25:54 And the command was, show me your fucking hands. If you don't do that, you may not belong for this earth. And that's not, that's not, that doesn't make me a conservative. That's not. And that shit on Hunter's saw, I don't believe it's coke it looks like sauce that on hunter's what i'm looking the news won't stop on hunter's picture from his from his phone of the of the uh bloke drawn out blind three lines blown out oh but it's on it's on a little table saw with that everywhere and it's clearly someone made three lines of of sawdust and took a picture of it uh michael brown was told to freeze and not move, and instead he walked over to the cop car and reached in the cop car and tried to grab the cop's gun through the window, started punching the cop through the window, and then was shot through the door of the car.
Starting point is 01:26:58 Then he was told to freeze. That's not true. Yeah, that was the first shot was through the door of the car. Well, okay. There were shots inside the car, but he wasn't shot. Oh, he didn't get shot. I think the first shot was through the door of the car. Well, okay. There were shots inside the car, but he wasn't shot. Oh, he didn't get shot. I think the first shot hit him through the door. Nope. Nope. But anyway, but then he came towards the cop again when the cop got out of the car.
Starting point is 01:27:17 It's not a good telling of the story. I apologize. Okay, hold on. I'll let you tell the story in one second. Keenan, my bad, bad sebi i made very bad misconception that you were contracted to come back to the games last year what where the fuck have you guys been i pre not only was i not contracted but the sixty thousand dollars i had to come up with to go there and they sent out a four-page letter to everyone who worked at HQ explaining that they're no way affiliated with me at all. Four pages to every single
Starting point is 01:27:50 employee there. Like I was going to come there with a fucking swastika and a fucking KKK mask. And all I did there was glorify the fucking athletes in the event. It would be good for a brand. A swastika in a KKK mask?
Starting point is 01:28:11 They're desperately in need of a topic beyond their own collapse. Take my money payment for saying nice things about Tia. Maybe she'll finally do your show. I'll never let her on the show. How about that? She'd go fuck herself. How's that? I don't fucking want anybody on the show. How about that? She'd go fuck herself. How's that? I don't fucking want anybody on the show.
Starting point is 01:28:28 Please, stop saying that to me, too. I don't fucking care. I don't want anyone on the show anymore. I'm not doing any guests. Greg's my last guest. Kicking Caleb off, too. Sorry, Caleb. Collateral damage.
Starting point is 01:28:40 Okay, Michael Brown, tell me the story. Okay, Michael Brown, tell me the story. He displayed some behavior that generated a cop car in a convenience store. Diminutive cop came upon the large teenage beast. There was an encounter with the window rolled down and there was a battle for the gun with some discharge of the weapon and Michael took off. And the little bitty cop got out of the car, stood in the street, ordered him to stop. Now, the rest of what I know
Starting point is 01:29:23 is what I heard directly from an eyewitness that I phoned it and was talking about the experience to the police and crowd that showed up while Michael was doing the room temperature challenge under the blanket, okay? And this is what he said happened. From a long ways away, he turned around and looked at the cop. And my sense of it was like, it was a hundred feet away. And then ran full speed at the cop who dropped to a knee and fired boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, emptied the gun. And his words were, it was like a monster movie. Like a monster movie.
Starting point is 01:30:19 I thought the cop missed. And then he fell. Brown was 6'4", 300 pounds, by the way, Michael Brown. Fell dead on the ground in front of the kneeling cop. By the way, that's a righteous shooting. We pay people to do exactly that. Oh, so he did get shot. He did get shot with the bullet in the car,
Starting point is 01:30:47 but it just shot his hand. Okay, my bad. I stand corrected. That's okay. I think we can split that. It doubles down on the cop's obligation to stick with the suspect. Even in hunting, you have to follow. Is that right, Caleb?
Starting point is 01:31:08 You live out there. You shoot something, you got to go after it, right? Right. It wasn't even his hand. It was his thumb. You don't need that. It's okay. Still, he's a citizen. He's wounded.
Starting point is 01:31:25 Still need to talk to him and get him medical care. And if he's going to buffalo me while I'm drawn, I'm going to empty the gun. And by the way, his friends who were there with him testified to that story too. His own friends. And his own friends were yelling at him to fucking stop. And he wouldn't. He kept fucking with the cop, running towards the cop. All the grand jury witnesses, believe were black and they told the same story and it's the one i just told it's the one i heard the guy tell
Starting point is 01:31:53 and and it's funny is i heard the guy tell that on national news and then he showed his video which they fuzzied out right yeah and so i reported as it was a reaction that's not what i see here in the video and so i heard the eyewitness before the grand jury but it's not assuming not before my president nor my attorney general nor my attorney general. And what they did in Ferguson was like, what would the word be? Suborn, is that right?
Starting point is 01:32:33 Can you use it for that? But my attorney general and my president invited violence in response to what was no less than a righteous shooting. And take the color away. Make the poor kid white. Make the cop black. And listen to me. Righteous shooting.
Starting point is 01:32:53 You don't try and disarm cops. Right. And you don't run after them full speed. Wearing their crouch ready position. Both common sense legally and morally and he just robbed a liquor store i saw that footage too just moments before that's why the cop was looking for him strong arm yeah he took a a box of um blunt wrappers yeah yeah all right yeah and it was like a five foot two middle eastern guy. He was slapping the guy around, treating him like a little kid.
Starting point is 01:33:26 The guy came out from behind the corner. Yeah. Had it been armed robbery, my hope would be that the cop emptied his gun on him. I mean, I got a guy suspected armed robbery, robber. I initiate some kind of, I don't know, pedestrian stop through a rolled down window and he approaches the car at high speed I've been paid by the public to empty my gun I have a soft spot for little old middle eastern men
Starting point is 01:33:56 trying to fucking make ends meet working 80 hours a week running a liquor store in the hood I do have a soft spot for them I do have a bias little bitty guy of armenian descent yes and i'm armenian we'll just play the fantasy game here and the guy in the liquor store is a giant black man and he's just been robbed at gunpoint and i see the little armen Armenian guy and I'm on his bicycle or walking or whatever. And I got my window down and he comes at me at high speed and I'm going to empty the gun on him. Yeah, Jay, you're right.
Starting point is 01:34:38 They should have called a social worker first. You're right. It's going to be harder to hit social workers a 350 pound woman comes in a let's reverse everything make the cop black right make the cop black and the black kid chart Buffalo's his car and tries to take his gun shot goes off he's thought shot in the thumb cop has it in park jumps out yells to him he turns around looks at him squares off takes a deep breath and begins the buffalo charge what happens does the cop wait there and kung fu panda him and they and they do a wrestling thing you think
Starting point is 01:35:30 how is kung fu panda not racist my god i don't know with a gun on his hip is that what he does in in 40 pounds of gear he has a wrestling match with a giant teenage boy i mean like imagine the people that think so. Imagine all our liberals. I got family. Yep, that's what he does. He's paid to have a wrestling match. Should he know how to wrestle? Yes. Should it always come to a wrestling match? Absolutely not.
Starting point is 01:36:00 Rittenhouse was white. He killed three white guys, and one of the guys was screaming, kill black people. And that wasn't what he said. It was a little harsh. He should have been a hero. He needed a statue next to George Floyd's statue. I attended a training for federal law enforcement, Caleb Seve. And the instruction was weapon preservation and what happens when you're in a tug of war for your weapon. And the resolution of the thing and what was practiced
Starting point is 01:36:36 is unless it's a nine or 10 year old boy that makes eye contact with your weapon. So you're there at the Walmart buying a payday candy bar. And your suit jacket opens. And you see a guy 25 years old. And his eyes are staring at the gun. Do you know what the official instruction is? What? Draw. Draw.
Starting point is 01:37:02 Do you know what the official instruction is? What? Draw. And suppose they then step forward suddenly. You know what the instructions are? Shoot. Empty. Yes.
Starting point is 01:37:17 Wow. Are they supposed to empty? Is that part of the, if someone's... You shoot until the threat stops. Right. of the if someone's you you shoot until the threat stops right and it often takes the the your momentum would would earn you three or four that you might not have passed your will will to stop yeah right but it would look like blah blah blah you know what are you doing today do you have plans today yeah always is i get loaded with shit but i'm around but these are the harsh realities of law enforcement just as the
Starting point is 01:37:54 uh maximum uh restraint technique that uh derek chauvin applied to George Floyd. Right. He was paid to do exactly what he did. He was trained. He was showing videos. It's in diagrams. I've seen them. It's in the training manual.
Starting point is 01:38:18 It's almost in universal use. The FBI uses it. The Department of Justice uses it. If they put you in the backseat of a car and you're banging your head mercilessly on the window, they will drag you out. They used to hog tie you. A lot of jurisdictions imply the maximum restraint technique ahead of, instead of, they make illegally the hog tying. And instead they put a knee on your neck they call it riding a knee and it's and it has shown to be less injurious than hog time imagine that less injurious than hog time in minneapolis the hog tie is illegal the maximum restraint technique was taught
Starting point is 01:39:01 derek chauvin applied it technique was taught. Derek Chauvin applied it. The crazy shit going on in Minneapolis right now is... Did you see those two women? They were white women. They did a home invasion. They killed someone. And
Starting point is 01:39:23 I want to say they got out They broke the glass ceiling White women Wow I have to send you that article Do they have vaginas? Do they have vaginas? And listen
Starting point is 01:39:38 It's a black police officer Who's speaking up against it He's like what the fuck is going on How are we letting people who did did home invasions uh and kill people what do these chicks have cocks no they were i mean i haven't seen it but they look they look they were pretty valid question they might have penises and did 20 At Corcoran You know Chicks like that You know those chicks

We got on the freeway the other day and I was falling behind Greg in my 4Runner. It's an uphill slope to get onto the freeway. And all of a sudden, I'm only like 50 feet or 100 feet behind him. We're going like 30 miles an hour. And then all of a sudden i'm only like 50 feet or 100 feet behind him we're going
Starting point is 01:41:25 like 30 miles an hour and then all of a sudden he's fucking gone and all i hear is it sounds like a plane took off in front of me and we get to the restaurant he's all did you hear me get on it i'm like yeah so did everybody else dude it was crazy it was crazy. It just vanished. The biggest truck you've ever seen just gone. Like a dot. A thousand horsepower is an amazing thing. That's incredible. It reminds me of the Camaro, but in a manageable space.

Starting point is 01:43:14 yes yes yes yes we'll save that for next week that's great let's watch that yeah i wasn't asking you to yeah to share it, but it's powerful, huh? Crazy powerful. Crazy powerful. That was around from the beginning of COVID. That thing was around. I remember seeing that thing. That thing used to be pulled down.
Starting point is 01:43:37 And you get a sense that without VATS and networking, he has a powerful scientist's intuition of what science is and isn't. Right. All right, guys. Bye, everyone. Love you. Okay. Bye.
Starting point is 01:43:51 I was going to say, that's the kind of shit that was getting censored at the beginning of COVID. They were pulling stuff like that down, and it's nuts. Dude, people have had their YouTube channels yanked for reporting CDC truths. Right, right. The agency spews fucking terabytes of horse shit. You find within it a gem and you point it out and you're down. Yep. By the way, my infamous tweet was accompanied with a long quote that never got
Starting point is 01:44:28 researched and it came right from the cdc and that is that in every age uh in every culture all quarantines end with race riot and i just i learned that from the cdc yeah straight off the cdc's website yeah but sure enough that's what happened all right bye love everyone love you bye see you greg so here's the story i wanted to i'm going to try to give you all the details I can I wanted to do the behind the scenes I told Dave hey I'm going to do the behind the scenes he said okay but listen if I get it approved for you
Starting point is 01:45:16 I know you're not going to come because you're not going to want to come to Madison and then I'm going to tell everyone that I got it approved for you and you didn't come and make you look like a pussy and he was actually right he was actually right like i was just kind of like putting my big toe in the water i didn't think like i was i just wanted to know you know like i wasn't trying to be a dick but i was just like feeling around i wonder if they would let me do that so it ends up that um it ends up i don't know there's a there's a funny story in there but it ends up he gets it approved and um so i decide i'm gonna go and at that time um uh you guys know John Woolley, the Make Wads Great Again guy and the Sporty Beth girl. They were spewing stupid shit. I'm going to paraphrase, but John Woolley posted something on just woke shit that everyone has to just interpret because they can't actually point at anything and be precise and be objective but he he posted something along the lines of i've been having some talks with don and i didn't want to complain to him now but after the games i think i need to talk to him more something like that and me and the in the in the illuminati were
Starting point is 01:46:34 like what the fuck is that well we knew what the fuck it was and we just guessed and we were right he had contacted don and he had said hey letting se seven come to the games could be like weird and risky You maybe you'll have protests like anyone gives a fuck if I come I'm paraphrasing so so and then and then sporty Beth is telling was telling people that I was calling her fat and That was a little out of that was a little It's true. I did call her fat, but it was it was out of context. She was saying something that was not true. And I said, hey, sporty Beth, we at least have to agree on some things in reality. Like, I have a big nose and you are fat. Like, that's not let's just be just like, let's agree on some objective realities. on some objective realities and so that and then and then woolly said well i didn't i wasn't trying to tell him that he shouldn't have you i was just warning him if you do come there there could be
Starting point is 01:47:31 some problems well it's like that's just horseshit too if he's that so now we either know he's stupid a lie or a liar one of the two fine either way i don't care i'm not even i'm not even mad at him so when it when it when it comes out that i'm going to do behind the scenes as you guys know some sponsors ponied up a shitload of cash and uh and made it so it was doable uh two brain business and uh ca peptides And then with crazy support also from Paper Street Coffee and Swolverine and all those guys. But basically, Two Brain's like – and I asked Chris Cooper, why are you doing this? He's like, because I think that content – I think media is the most important part to help affiliates.
Starting point is 01:48:18 And I go, what do you want from me? He goes, nothing. I'm getting what I want by you making the behind the scenes. Like, do you want me to put your name up? He's like, do whatever you want. So. A couple of days before I go, someone sends me this email that went out to CrossFit HQ. That's fucking four pages long, basically like Don's telling every employee there that no way are they affiliated with me. They don't condone me that they they disown me, that anything.
Starting point is 01:48:46 And I'm just there like any other media. Like he was afraid of some fallout. Like it spooked him that the mentally insane chick and the mentally insane dude had some validity. I don't know how that – I think Don's a smart guy. But how he thought that anything they said had any fucking relevancy. And they've both been equally haters themselves. Their contribution to the CrossFit space is a fragment of mine. If they vanish, nothing goes away.
Starting point is 01:49:23 But if I vanish, a shitload goes away. It's just a fact. It's just the way it is. If I didn't exist, it would be different. If they go away, it wouldn't be different. I'm not saying it wouldn't have been better if I was there or worse. But if they go, there's nothing. And the effort and energy I put in, we're not even in the same fucking world.
Starting point is 01:49:50 so um so then i go to the games and i have an amazing time and everyone's so fucking good to me there dave uh heather uh don it's completely professional and i just crush it i mean me and the team absolutely crush it and the team's just all like just voluntary like getting paid i'm all the money we used all the money to pay them, but still not enough what they deserve. And the team just crushed it. So we come back with all this fucking footage. And the team's getting paid pennies to edit it together and make it. And so then I reach out to the powers that be. And I'm like, hey, do you have any issues with us putting this behind a paywall for a second to see if we can just raise money but we're still going to give it away free and
Starting point is 01:50:28 we'll tell everyone we're doing that so that they can it can just be up to them to pay or not they say okay that's cool which seems rational right so we then the team comes up with this idea hey let's make l1 commercials and open commercials um and surprise them with it so like they they they feel like because we want them to feel like they they got more out of it than we did right and um and we released them and it was a good deal and um once again the this show is going to have the most minutes watched of any content for every year that the behind the scenes comes out it's the most minutes watched of any content that crossfit or anyone in the space puts out it's going to be that again this year and it's a win
Starting point is 01:51:16 for crossfit and i'm sure we help sell some l1s and sell some open and we i think it helped galvanize and bring the community together. There's tons of comments. There hasn't been one negative comment about the behind the scenes. The only negative comments are like, man, Sevan, I hate you, but this is great work.
Starting point is 01:51:33 They're all still targeted towards me. And that's it. That's it. But to think that I was somehow contracted by CrossFit, you're a fucking moron scumbag and don't get me wrong i'd love to be like they should pay me a million dollars a year they really should i'm worth every i'm worth every fucking penny of it and to think that i want tia
Starting point is 01:51:56 or anybody like they're everyone's welcome on the show not everyone is welcome on all the other shows just so you know everyone is welcome on my show everyone is welcome on my show not everyone is welcome on all the show tia is totally welcome on the show fraser justin maderas noah olsen chandler smith they're all welcome on the show i would love to have them on danny spiegel. I've asked her a million times. But I don't give a fuck. You have to understand that. It's their loss. I say that with peace and love. And zero humility.
Starting point is 01:52:36 This is the biggest platform. In the fucking space. You're only hurting yourself. Everyone who comes on here. Leaves better. Almost everyone, 99.999%. I don't ambush anyone. I ask deep penetrating questions that allow people to present at a level of their character or their values that you're not going to find anywhere else. else and therefore they get a newer and bigger audience the best thing you can have happen on most of the other platforms out there is you could leave intact but you come on here and you will benefit that's it yeah i can uncancel guests yes I'm on a whole this group this group of viewers
Starting point is 01:53:31 and peers and colleagues in this media space and the viewers who are circling around this we're running the show now we control the whole fucking narrative. And our intentions are to be a tremendous positive force. And I think we are.
Starting point is 01:53:59 And so it's not. I don't know what the word is. Maybe I misspoke. It's not that I don't care if Tia comes on. It's just – it's nothing – or Mal or anyone. It's just – it's their loss. And you're going to be on Spotify and iTunes and all that shit. And people are going to be like, wow. The most common comment we have from our guests is, holy shit, I didn't realize I liked that person so much. Or fuck, it sucks that I hate Sevan. He does such a good job interviewing those people.
Starting point is 01:54:41 It's just other people's egos. It was the same thing with the behind the scenes. I mean, Dave knew I was going to go there. thing with same thing with the behind the scenes i mean dave knew i was going to go there i was going to make the behind the scenes anyone who didn't want me to do it or who's not glorifying it or helping it it's their ego getting in the way of hurting the people at berkshire who are trying to make money off this thing i'm i'm like the people of berkshire love me i'm the tether of fucking of i'm a tether of energy that comes from the fucking heavens into this fucking space Uh then the vindicate, uh, dude travis made this for me It's crazy, right? He made it for me like a couple years ago It's awesome
Starting point is 01:55:22 And then the other day my kid's's like, can I ride that? And I'm like, oh, fuck. Do you know how many times I've meant to bring this into my office? I'm like, no. Hell no. Yeah. Brooke is still coming on. Brooke is still coming on.
Starting point is 01:55:37 There's a classic example. I said something about Brooke and Marzen's relationship like two years ago. And Brooke just fucking text me and goes, hey, dipshit. And she's still coming on Adam Clink yeah I would like to have Clink on he's cool as shit I've always wanted to have him on people like the show because like when
Starting point is 01:56:02 when Daniel Brandon says hey dick fuck I don't like you fucking with Rad they're my sponsor like I respect that good on her I can create some space and see things for what they are
Starting point is 01:56:18 Sevan asymmetric ears not just ego many people love illusion if they come on your show they risk revealing who they really are. I hear you.
Starting point is 01:56:29 I hear you. Sunny Day Rambler, don't fuck with the rads. Don't fuck with the Jesus. Listen, the best CrossFit shoes by far, hands down, are the Savage ones and the Nano 2s. And then the walk-around shoe, the best shoe for the walk-around shoe, if you want a third shoe, is the Victos. And they're all cut with that same toe, big toe box, and that's it. End of story.
Starting point is 01:56:59 All the other shoes, like, I was just watching Daniel Brandon's story this morning. Those shoes are hideous. Listen, you're never going to look at the Nanos and be like i can't believe i wore those i promise you in 10 years you're going to look at those rads and be like i can't believe i wore those like those are those are like those pants girls wear that they pull up high like they're only going to be in that make your butt look flat those are only going to be in fashion for a second and they're not even comfortable they're bad for your toes i bet i'm just telling you the truth i'm not even like go rad get your billions rad you should sponsor sponsor something of me sponsor the show look i told uh gabe i don't drink your shit i drink good dudes he's like i don't care i like your show yeah now you're not now he produces

Starting point is 01:58:14 Yeah. Maybe a little. Yeah, they're pretty close. I just got some go ruck boots the other day for work. I'm excited about them. I'm deeply appreciative of everyone in the space, the people, the haters, the not-haters. I'm thankful for Don and Dave and Danny.
Starting point is 01:58:33 It's all just fun. It's all just fun. I can understand an athlete being intimidated by Sevan seven you need to be sharp or risk being left behind but the virtue signaling piece is unfair but but i but i won't um i'm not here i'm never here to i'm i've never once in the 1800 shows been like okay i'm gonna clown this person if someone came on here and they were like um uh i mean you guys hear my rants about homeschooling and the in the the injection but if someone comes on here and they've had it i'm cool as shit to them i'm not i'm not judging them like i'm not judging their person
Starting point is 01:59:14 zach jones from from from twitter it's lonely over here. All right. That's it. It was just weird. I was starting to hear the noise of people saying that I got paid by CrossFit. Like, dude, they went out of their way. They were great to me. I'm very thankful. But no one's paying me but they should but they should if the board had fucking half a brain they would bring me i'm an outdoor dog do you guys know that there's indoor dogs and outdoor dogs your yard dog and and i'll also tell you this so i roll with i roll with the outdoor dogs

They don't anymore. Outdoor. We're very happy as outdoor dogs. And the ones that wanted to be indoor dogs and couldn't come to terms with being outdoor dogs, they're neither now.
