Nothing.
I can't wait to eat some bear meat.
Hey, they're really going to make sausage, bear sausage?
Yeah.
Yeah, chorizo and other things, other sausages and soap and all kind of stuff out of the fat
it's pretty versatile meat pretty versatile animal versatile animal what's what's the guy's name
that um makes the sausages is it carlos uh no his name is dave dave curtis he look he needs to
change his name to carlos he's such a carlos dude dave's the man dave's uh dave's the one that talked me into doing
leadville last year um and what what's crazy about how we met dave curtis was remember we
did that moto tour a couple years ago with castro when we were in leadville uh no okay when we were
in leadville it was like me dan josh dave um who else oh yeah yeah yeah yeah i remember that i remember that pretty
that pretty much ruined your guys's friendship that was cool yeah yeah for about a week and
then we were good um yeah that was dave would just get so mad that we just wanted to hang out
dave wanted to ride 1 million miles a day uh right and so and we wanted to work out he didn't
understand that um and so uh we were in leadville colorado at a at a campground and we wanted to work out. He didn't understand that. And so we were in Leadville, Colorado, at a campground and we posted a video.
Dave posted a video or a picture or whatever. And next thing we know, we're sitting at this fire and somebody just walks out of the darkness.
And he's like, hey, this is really creepy, but I literally live right next door and just wanted to bring you guys some beer and hang out and so that's how we met dave curtis and then we've become friends throughout the years and
hunting buddies and um yeah really cool kind of like full circle story a couple years later
wow that is a trip now guys listen this rich is claiming this guy's name is fucking what did you
say dave curtis dave curtis listen people this is not a dave curtis i've there's no dave curtis Rich is claiming this guy's name is fucking, what did you say, Dave Curtis? Dave Curtis.
Listen, people, this is not a Dave Curtis.
There's no Dave Curtis that looks like this.
This is straight Carlos.
Wait, hold on, hold on. There he is.
There he is.
Look it.
Please.
I'll tell Dave.
Carlos is awesome.
We'll have him change his name.
Carlos is making some chorizo.
Dude, that's carlos hernan carlos hernandez uh first generation ecuadorian
uh holy cow that is uh he also that looks like the guy that works at the hawaii trail run you
know what i mean the the guy at that gym you know what's that guy uh what's that guy's name
juan well yeah yeah carlos and ju are brothers. Long lost brothers.
I'll see if Dave has any brothers named Juan.
Dude, there's no way
his name is Dave.
Maybe that's part of his...
Maybe he's witness protection.
I would believe that.
That's exactly what I was thinking, dude.
That's exactly what I was thinking.
My name is Tom.
Oh my goodness david i mean you see it right there's no david there that guy's ethnic as a mofo
yeah my name's charlie by the way i'm charlie ben davidson you know who's on our media team
he's very he'll ask you whatever question anything like there's nothing off the table and he just looked at dave when we were hunting um in archery season he looks at him
and he said what's your heritage and dave's like what are you asking and he's like well what are
you you know so it was pretty good and what is he uh i think he's uh you were too busy enjoying
the question to hear the answer he's uh mexican and then uh i think
he's black too so i think he said latin american and and uh ben's like what does that even mean
you know like asking him um you know what it was what what exactly ben wanted like
his ancestry.com you know so my takeaway from that whole video is um what what's the cook like after all that
shit you guys go through what what what if this is a cook that's the only thing that's all you got
not anything about the same clock not anything about the story not anything about you know
any of the the cinematography anything nope not me and matt fighting back and forth hillary
hillary watched it yesterday she usually doesn't watch the videos and she's like you and matt are so mean to each other
and i was like yeah we've been best we've been best friends for 30 years like that's just what
you do you just you know you just talk shit to each other was there um in the beginning there
is that scene that it seems like there could be a little tension oh no you don't normally see people
push back on you you're like me, hey, let's do this way.
He's like, no.
No, me and Matt, I mean, literally, we're brothers,
and it happens all the time.
Like, we were working bison yesterday,
and we're dog cussing each other, and it just is what it is, you know?
And then you walk away, and everybody's like,
are you guys still friends?
We're like, yeah, absolutely.
You know, there's no part of me that would even question that.
What's dog cussing
just lots of cussing is it like i'm someone this is a family this is a family friendly uh
you know podcast i can't say any of the words but yeah yeah yeah please so it's a lot of cussing
dog likes how like not cussing but cussing yeah like dog you yell at a dog like dog does something
bad you know you it the same word?
Go ahead, Susan.
I said you stupid SOB.
Why would you put it that way?
Yep, exactly.
But it's cousin.
Cussing.
Dog cussing.
Dog cussing.
But it's from the word cussing.
Yeah, for sure.
You just put an apostrophe.
You drop the G and put an apostrophe over the N.
That's what we learn in Tennessee schools.
Cussing. Like bussing.
Dog cussing.
Dog cussing.
Someone would just unleash on their dog.
I actually have a friend or two
that every time I'm on the phone with them, they're yelling at their dog.
It's crazy.
I got a dog like that.
His name's Bill.
To berate in a hateful or vicious manner using a various and
sundry profane word sundry sundry i don't know click that word seriously let's see what that is
a vocabulary lesson here this is a oh urban dictionary yeah this is a real vocabulary list
yeah this is real this is real it's got to be real is this various items not important enough to be mentioned individually all right yeah they don't really make sense i wonder if my mom knows
that word yes you guys so you guys were rolling uh uh tell me about this how much is a bear tag
um so the elk tag was i think seven hundred 700 and then you just do an add-on bear tag it's an
over-the-counter tag um i think it was 114 depends on what unit you're in meaning meaning
geographically where you are yeah so basically whatever all the whatever state we'll take
colorado for um well balloons happy birthday um we'll take uh color, um, well balloons, happy birthday. Um, we'll take,
uh, Colorado for instance. And it's, it's divided up into different, um, units. And so some units
are what they call over the counter where any old jackass like myself, you could just show up and
get a tag depending on how many are left. Um, and then some units where either there's less animals or more high-quality trophy animals might cost you points, and you can apply for points and get points.
It's really a very confusing system unless you know somebody that knows what the hell they're doing.
Okay, let me ask you this question.
I'm poor as shit.
I only make $89,000 a year.
I mean I am poor.
That's California poor for sure. I am fucking
poor. I'm picking up cans. I save my cans. Yep. You get five cents in Colorado or California?
$3 a can. $3 a can. Wow. Hell yeah. Good job, Newsome, man. After taxes, you pay them though.
Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah. Well, you get $3, but they get $5. You have to pay them $5.
I am poor as shit.
I make $89,000 a year.
I'm driving my car down to where I see the, what's the shit?
Low fuel light?
Oh.
Yeah, that too.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You're just, no, but that's, you're just being environmentally responsible there, right?
I – I'm six months late on paying my gardener who I pay $500 a month to keep the property nice.
You know what I mean?
Carlos?
Yeah, Carlos.
Actually, what is his name?
Carlos.
David?
Javier.
No, Javier.
Javier and Javier, two Javiers.
I – you know, like I have the cheap, cheap, dirty, cheap cable package.
Why don't you use it to your kids to cut your lawn?
$2.75 a month, I have the cheap cable package.
I can't even watch all the football games.
It's only $2.75 a month.
Why the fuck would I want to spend $700?
Why can't I just go shoot an elk for free?
It sounds like a fucking racket. Why do I have to spend $700? I, why can't I just go shoot an elk for free? It sounds like a fucking racket.
Why do I have to spend $700?
I need food for my family.
Well, because...
I don't want to spend $700 to shoot an elk.
That's bullshit.
I should be able to do that for free.
You should go buy a house in Colorado.
You can get a $50 elk tag.
But since you're coming from out of state,
you have to pay more,
and all that money goes back into their state.
Oh. If you live there, you have to pay more and all that money goes back into their state oh if you live or you or you could donate yeah donate conservation to their conservation fund
you know that's what all the vegans do right that's what they're doing for the
environment is they're donating all their money right do they know where that really goes the bullets bullets hey okay so is that true for every state if i so
so yeah a lot of states well i'm pretty sure every state every state that i've ever hunted in
you pay way more as a resident you get some type of break like um i'm don't quote me on the 50
but i'm pretty sure it's close to like 50 to uh apply for a tag. Okay, I feel better about that.
But if I'm coming from a different state, they're going to gouge you, which, I mean, hey, if you've got the funds or if you want to raise some money for your supply and demand.
Okay, okay.
That makes me feel way, way, way, way better. And that money goes back into the habitat for the animal.
It goes into paying for people to do studies, watch out for the animals, set bag limits, all those types of things.
Yeah.
The other day, a rat climbed into my van.
You could shoot that.
Yeah.
I had to get to the toyota dealership it got caught in the the where and that was that was fifteen hundred dollars i'm like did did anything break no sir no why is it 1500 bucks we got to sanitize
that we got to sanitize that you don't want to get bubonic plague someone got to know some windex
and a rubber glove
and did that hey service fee man we changed your cabin filter yeah that's cool yeah you did yeah
you did did you get to keep the rat bring it home and eat it no but you know what the guy actually
did say he's like hey man when i came in there he's like oh you're so lucky i go why he goes
there's a guy working in a mechanic here today who just specializes in this he loves it he's like oh you're so lucky i go why he goes there's a guy working in a mechanic
here today who just specializes in this he loves it it's like you know like when you get your kid
gets in an accident every parent says the same thing oh we're so lucky the best surgeon in the
world was there today for that right you know that story you've heard it like a hundred he specializes in this i was so lucky fifteen hundred dollars later 15 you lucky sob 1498
oh it was a fifteen hundred dollars you're lying i know 1498 verbally there are some there are some
good parents good parents that send their kids to school too but you know man what did you do
what'd you do you you go all assault on the public school system or public and private?
I always do.
I say all sorts of weird shit.
Like if you have a tattoo, you have mental health issues.
If you have a septum ring, you have mental health issues.
And these people fucking flip out.
And it's like, hey, you're the one.
Like if you don't, then you don't.
Just be cool.
Just be confident in it.
You're like, oh, someone got that one wrong.
Yep.
I know how that goes.
Okay. Suppose one dead animal and people lose their mind when you or five when when you are thinking about i know you take scott everywhere so
everything can be a fucking write-off oh let's start here why why not start a hunting um channel
like tdc did maybe that's what we're doing oh okay oh you're pivoting
the one you have yeah why though why not keep that one why not start a new one i think we are
no we are we're gonna start i'm not saying because no i'm not saying because people are offended
either i'm just thinking it's nice to have yeah yeah no i think that that's where stuff will go
um you know we're we're um there's such a value, I think, in fitness and hunting. Some of these guys go out there just ill-prepared. When you get out there, it's a mental, physical grind. use CrossFit for the hunting space. And so a lot of guys are immediately or instantly turned off
when they hear the name CrossFit. So if we can kind of ease them into our side and bring them
to the dark side and show them how much benefit there is if you actually do it the right way.
And so, yeah, the idea is to just get more people, like even, you know, it's a big,
large community of people doing or that are hunting. are hunting. Um, and we want to, you know,
show them how awesome it is that if you go out in the woods and you're not necessarily worried about
getting this thing out because I physically can't do it or, um, getting to wherever that animal is,
then, um, the more confident, more prepared you are in the mountains or in the woods.
Dude, tell me if I'm wrong wrong but it's clear as day to me that i don't want
to ruin the video for people but as nightfall is coming you're still in pursuit oh yeah you
and if you weren't a crossfitter there's no fucking way you'd have done that no way no way
yeah no your average dickhead hunter is not like with the fucking beer gut is not doing what you
did but but but i think your average crossfitter actually, I don't think it would be the fittest
man in the world to do it.
I think like I would, if I was there, I could have done it.
Yeah.
I think so too.
And like just CrossFit shit, like, Hey, put your head down.
Just go, just go.
And you know, and that's, what's awesome about like me and Scott, we train regularly for
those types of things.
And so, I mean, at no point is, am I ever thinking about, Hey, Scott, can we do this?
Are you in shape enough?
Like if I say it, Scott's right behind me and we're, you know, at one point I wish,
I wish I had a camera because we're going up and we were going after that bear, um,
in the North facing slopes, there's still some snow and it was some of the thickest
nastiest, just awful hillside.
Um, like my knuckles had just scratches all over them
because there were thorns and stuff.
And I look, and Scott is face down in the snow
punching the ground.
Oh, just because he's so frustrated?
So pissed off.
And I mean, that's how I felt on the inside
because I find logs, and I'll kind of catwalk logs up.
And Scott, he is all go and no show.
Like he's going to fall off of every,
there's no like balance beam or anything.
He must've fallen 700 times when we were dragging that bear out.
Like he just gets going and they can't stop himself and falls.
But like I said,
Scott's not going to ever say,
Hey,
we shouldn't do that.
He's going to go.
But it's just funny.
Like you, you turn around and he's punching the ground.
He's got his camera in one hand and he's just wearing out the ground.
And so it's not only physical, it's mental.
And just to know you have somebody like that that's going to go.
There's no question ever.
The funniest part about that whole, I guess it was the second day, he's like, hey, all
right, we do an end of the day wrap up and that's that was in real time where he's like hey give me the end of
the day and i'm kind of cinching my stuff up and i'm like it's not the end of the day and then as
soon as i look i see elk over his shoulder and they were uh straight line about a mile mile and
a half away and i look at matt and i'm like we're going and so that was that actually happened the way it
videoed out and so uh it was their bomb they're a little bum matt's like a little like oh matt's
matt wasn't happy scott is like i said he's in he's going and it was matt's day you know that's
kind of the funny we try to make it a switch where matt becomes the main character for that day and
matt's come a long way actually you. When we first went to Montana,
the first time we ever went elk hunting, Matt was 99% sure he got rhabdo on the very first day. And for the next three days, just sat in a tree stand.
From what?
We climbed a mountain with a guide. And the guide, he tried to take it easy, but the problem was I
was right on his hip the whole time. And so we just kept climbing this mountain, kept climbing
this mountain all the way up to the top. about three quarters of the way he's like he could
tell Matt was get slowing down a little bit so he's like hey why don't you just hang here
glass a little bit you know if you watch this draw maybe something will pop out so me and him
go back up or the guide go all the way to the top and we we look on the back side of this hill
well it gets starts getting dark so we start coming down the hill. Well, we would walk 10 or 15 minutes, and Matt would come sauntering in about five or ten minutes later.
And then we'd walk.
We didn't get back to camp until 10 o'clock that night.
And Matt all night was talking about how he thinks he's pissing blood and, like, the room is spinning.
He's like, I can't.
I'm like, dude, you got to eat something.
You got to drink.
I can't do it. My stomach, blah, blah, blah. And so I'm not kidding. For two days, Matt laid the next
morning. He would not get out of bed. He was like, I'm going. We'd paid this money to go this first
time. And me and the guide go, we come back middle of the day and the guide's like, I can put you in
a stand. So for the next two days, Matt sat in a stand and we always talk about it, but he was miserable. And so he's surprised he went again. I'm surprised. Oh,
I know. Yeah. Yeah. No, he's, he's gone now. I think he went one time we were all in the same
group. He didn't hunt really with me. This is the second time we've hunted together since that time.
And he was, uh, but he, he, he he's come to the gym some and actually gotten physically a little bit more physically prepared for it.
So, you know, it scared him. I think that first time that, hey, maybe I do need to do something.
But he's not a CrossFitter, Rich. I would say he dabbles in it.
He you know, he's one of those that are hot and cold. He'll do it for a while, get on a good kick.
And then they've got a son that's like a
year old and he quit about the time bear was born but now he's bears getting a little bit more
self-sufficient so he started to come and um their their daughter does crossfit kids and all that
type stuff but he's he's gotten a lot more um physically active for sure yeah dude even even
when um i did the behind the scenes again this year and i hadn't done it in um i don't know a few years i trained for it just like i did the previous time yeah you have to
20 pound d ball and walk 10 miles with it like you really have to yeah you really have to prepare
a few weeks before yeah you'll get you'll fuck yourself up especially if you're not used to being
on your feet if you're not used to being on your feet that's a um the biggest thing a lot what we
do is you know we use crossfit uh specific you know, we use CrossFit, uh, specific, you know,
just plain old CrossFit.
And then about six weeks out, we'll start getting a little bit more, um, you know, specific
on what we're doing.
We'll push a ton of sleds.
Uh, we've got a stair master.
Um, you know, everybody makes fun of us for having the stair master, but man, it's such
a good tool.
We'll throw a ruck on and just walk on that for 30 or 40 minutes.
You just, you CrossFit can prepare you
really well, but if you want kind of that next little spot, you got to specialize just a little
bit on what you're doing. Like we know that. And that's what I did with mountain biking. You know,
I did CrossFit the entire time getting ready for Leadville one a day. And then my second session
that was normally, you know, a CrossFit session was just supplemented with more bike riding. And
it's the exact same way
we do it with with hunting what's their master do you have i don't even know uh to be honest so
is it the one bill and katie sell i think so yeah it's did you get it from rogue uh i don't know
where josh got it but i'm pretty sure they got it from rogue do you like it i love stairmaster
it's actually like if you are just kind of
not really feeling
working out at the moment and you just hop on that
thing, your heart rate immediately spikes,
starts burning your legs, and you feel pretty
good about moving around, man.
Stairmaster, it's kind of a hidden
gem, I think. I want one
so bad. Oh, shit. That one's expensive.
Yeah, it's almost $8,000. They're not
cheap. Yeah, they're not cheap. God, I want one so bad. You'll probably's expensive yeah it's almost eight grand they're not cheap yeah they're
not cheap god i want one so bad you probably haven't used one too craigslist that bitch you
you use it pretty like more than you would think you know like i said if you even just hop on it
for 10 minutes and get moving um it's surprising how high your heart rate gets you know like i said
i'll throw a ruck on and we'll just watch a movie or something like that.
That's what I like.
I like it because I could just be preparing for podcasts while I'm on it.
That's why the assault bike is so good.
Yeah.
You can multitask.
Yeah.
And you can get shit done.
Yeah, that's fucking cool.
Hey, how do you know how to do all that cleaning stuff?
How do you know how to practice?
Who teaches you that? Like the L thing. Guys. How do you know how to practice um you know that teaches you that like the l thing like guys
there how do you know yeah guys like dave um watching youtube videos um you know really
you you i've watched a bunch of youtube videos to do it and then it's just hands-on man and you
just have to um you gotta have a you know a stomach for it i guess you know i think having the background being a firefighter and that type of stuff doesn't gotta have a, you know, a stomach for it, I guess, you know, I think having the
background of being a firefighter and that type of stuff doesn't really bother me, but you know,
they'll get some people in there that just like, you don't want to touch that. So, um, it's,
yeah, it's something you gotta, you gotta learn. You gotta have somebody, like I said,
the first couple of times to kind of either guide you and tell you what to do, but you,
the best way to do it, it's just to learn to do it. And I think it's a skill. I mean, I had never really cleaned a large animal. I'd cleaned large
or smaller animals like turkeys and stuff. Um, but the first time you, you got out an animal
and start quartering it up, you're kind of like, Oh man, this is a skill that is actually super
beneficial. Um, you know, if anything were to ever happen or if you're ever out somewhere,
um, it's, uh, it's something you just, just you almost take for granted in the in the world we live in now that it's so everything's so hands off.
So in the video, it's just you and Matt and then you.
Well, I guess Scott's there and you get the elk.
That was the first one me and Matt had ever done by ourselves.
Matt's got a lot of deer and usually around here you you just got the deer and then you take it to a processor. Um, so that was our
first kind of solo mission, I guess, with just me and Matt doing it. And so, uh, we probably took a
little extra, uh, you know, we, we could have hacked off the bottom of the legs and save some
weight and things like that. But, um, we just, we kind of just went for it. It was cold. So
yeah, that was our first. On the safe side side you think you brought back more than you needed to
yeah probably like just or at least kept pieces in in larger uh pieces than needed to be we could
have divided it up a little bit better and there was only three of us to get that thing out
it's so crazy that i don't know how to do that. It's so crazy that you could be a man on planet earth and not know how to skin
an animal. It's, it's like when I saw you doing, I'm like, God,
that seems so weird that I don't know how to do that.
It's really until you see it, you, you don't really think about that. Right.
You know, like we're so disconnected from, you know,
everybody wants to hate on hunting and hate on that type of thing.
But where do you – that eats meat.
But where do you think that comes from?
And it's – the farm has helped a lot with that I think too is like learning those types of skills or thinking about those things.
And everybody wants to look at us at how we're –
Are those all people who don't eat meat?
No, that's the problem.
I think.
How do those people, what's their justification?
Why would you get mad at someone for hunting?
Because they eat meat.
Where do they think their meat comes from?
I don't mean, I'm not trying to be a dick.
No, no, I agree.
I want to understand the mechanism or their thinking process.
They say there's enough meat already out there that we don't need to take more meat, which is kind of bizarre to me.
Wait a second.
That's like – that doesn't make sense because if those animals are – we all know those animals are abused already and have a shitty life.
So if you reduce the supply on those animals –
You're going to have to –
Then you help – you actually – then less animals are abused.
Yep. Am I thinking right on that
no i mean i think you're thinking clearly i have an aunt and uncle my dad's brother is and his
family are vegetarians and so at thanksgiving uh we're kind of like they're asking me questions
about the hunt and i'm kind of like this is you know like someone in your in your in your family
tree is a vegetarian yeah my dad's uh's brother is a vegetarian, his whole family.
Wow, wow.
And so they're asking, you know, like asking legitimate –
Rich Sr. has a vegetarian brother?
He does.
I'm processing this.
Yep.
The dude I know that I smoked cigarettes and drank beer with while you worked out in the bar.
Yep, that's him.
That dude's got a vegetarian family?
Yep, yep, my Uncle Dave, his brother.
All right.
And so – and I'm kind of like at first, not awkward, but, you know, thinking I'm getting
judged, but no, at no point.
And then they were talking about how people at their church were talking about it.
And they're like, oh, we probably shouldn't talk about this in front of you.
And they were like, my aunt was like, no, this is, I think hunting is 100% fine.
It's the industry farms is the reason that they
are vegetarians. So industrial farming. And so they were completely fine with it, which is,
I don't know, for me, I was just, it was a weird, I thought it was going to be weird and it turned
out fine. So it was cool to have those conversations is, is it's conversations,
you know, like I'm not going to, they know I'm not going to be a vegetarian you know like i'm not gonna they know i'm not gonna be a vegetarian
and i know i'm not gonna force meat on them and so it's just why can't we just have a discussion
instead of people freaking out um i i do have a a pretty i do respect the fuck out of people
who don't want to kill things for their own existence i think that that thought process is uh sound when you um um
do you feel any emotional uh pain like like when when matt shot the animal in the video you're like
hey dude you got it and i saw it roll down the hill and i thought oh god i don't know if i that
part might i might like feel my tear ducts turn on if I saw a big deer roll down a hill like that.
So there's a there's an immediate, I think, excitement.
And then when you get to the animal, there's 100 percent.
There's some remorse to it.
You know, like there is there is some remorse and respect.
I think at times that is one thing that, you know, when people want to get upset about us posting or, you know, you see that emotional
response, I understand them being upset about that 100%. Because Homeboy's done. His journey
on earth is done. Well, as far as we know, it's done. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know what happens to
that. I don't know what happens. It looks like it's done. It's done. But that means, you know,
so there's an immediate excitement when you get to the animal and then you see the like life leave or you're there at the animal.
There is some you're kind of like, damn, that that sucks.
You know, there's that part of that. Then there's some respect of, hey, this animal will go to like I've, I waste a whole lot less meat, even 100% from that animal, but even from animal or from meat we buy at the store or anywhere else, because now I see the, you know, there, there, you can connect to the, Hey, there's a life lost.
And there was a kind of a trade off here.
And so I'm way more, and as bad as that sounds, like it took that for me to be, you know,
you're already in 1% of 1% with what you're saying.
Most, yeah.
Most of that meat away, you know, like we don't need that meat.
And now I'm like, oh, Hey, we're going to use these leftovers or we're going to do whatever.
And so, um, I, I, you know, everybody wants to say it's, you're a horrible person for,
I think it's made me a better person on that respect for it is that hey this this is a life there's no disconnect from here when you see that life leave
when you see all that goes into it um it's it's completely different for you uh joel kelly uh
seven drop a pair like like nuts why on earth are you trying to apologize at the beginning of this
um i have no issue uh i have no issue apologizing but i'm not apologizing i'm trying to explain that the
how i would like you guys to take this show i don't want you guys to like be um
i don't want to browbeat you guys like like if you're confident in the fact that you have a
septum ring and it doesn't mean blue hair and you're and you don't think you're a woke douche
but but i think that that's a strong correlate for being a woke
douche i'm gay it's a correlate it's a correlate it's not a like it's not an absolute right yeah
yeah and i don't and i don't want to be and i don't want to be mean to people that's the thing
like i don't care who you are like i don't want to be mean to people it's not it's not a character trait i want to have i'm just working on it that's it good for you good for you hey so so um i um i watched this um
many years ago i was um i watched this uh pita video that showed like how like cows and chickens
and pigs were like brought to farm and i forced myself to to watch it because i'm like hey i eat
so much fucking meat i need to watch this and um dude it took me three sittings to get through it like i was sobbing so
hard that snot was pouring out of my nose and my wife's like what the fuck are you doing i'm like
just giving myself a fucking healthy dose reality check and i didn't eat meat for like two weeks
after that yeah um that's what your hunting trip is yeah but but but um like if you eat meat and you're not going to go on a hunting trip i mean there's
it's not a correlate you're a fucking coward yeah yeah i've said that multiple times i think that's
my you have said that sound bite yeah yeah like and and not if you eat meat and that's okay if
you're a coward i got a little coward in me but well if you eat meat and are if you eat meat. And that's okay if you're a coward. I got a little coward in me.
Well, if you eat meat and are against hunting,
then you're a coward, in my opinion.
Well, even if you won't go on the trip, dude.
Even if you won't go on the trip, dude.
Dude, something's fucking dying for you
and you won't... Hey, it's like people who don't...
When they go put their dog down at the vet
and they just fucking drop the dog
off and fucking go back in their car.
People do that? Fuck yeah, dude because they yes they do oh that's cowardice you gotta
fucking be there with it yeah don't don't um uh yeah yeah if you can't um if you're eating meat
and you can't at least just suck it up you know and and take a gun and fucking shoot something in
the head and go over and skin it and like just deal with it just yeah and if not you're a coward and if you're a
coward that's cool too i accept you for being a coward i'm not apologizing i'm just saying
yeah you guys just got a little fucking uh coward in you yeah or a lot i don't know
what if they have a septum ring blue hair and they're a coward
is that another correlate like i i think that there's a lot of that are we still moving that
way i i think that there's a uh california what's the line graph look like there um
what what did i see here oh man if you want to do something i have one i do have a click
are you going through comments?
No. I'm looking. I have a
clip down here that I thought,
okay, if Rich really wants to get controversial,
we can go there.
Also, in the video,
you
get
the animal in one shot.
Matt uses about $3,000 worth of ammo.
When you edit that,
it's like Scott,
like, fuck it,
I'm making this dude look like
he can't shoot worth of shit.
No.
I mean, this fire.
We might have left it out
if he hadn't killed anything.
But the fact that he killed something.
And the hard part was it's zeroed for me.
And I don't know 100% the math on this.
Dave could probably tell me.
But where my cheek sits on the rifle stock is a little bit different.
So actually re-zeroing the rifle would have been better for Matt.
And the problem was he had his own rifle.
But there's a little knob that changes the minutes of action and so basically as the the bullet goes out it'll drop so you can adjust that so matt had his adjustment off on his
rifle so he had to use my rifle is what happened you're telling so what is the reason why someone
one scope i don't know so like the way my cheek sits on the rifle, I get a certain picture.
You know, the crosshairs are in a certain spot.
And so if he's got a thicker cheek, you know, that's my only thing that we could figure out.
You say something like that in the video too.
You say, hey, when you set up a rifle, it's specific to the person.
But I was having trouble believing that.
I thought.
Yeah, I don't know.
Like out to 100 or 200, maybe not. But he he uh shot he takes the harder it is and you know people are
like oh he's missing at 500 why are you gonna why is he gonna take a thousand yard shot that was
that was a joke if you notice us just bantering back and forth and winking at the camera and me
making fun of him for having a sticker you know like, like I'm not going to, we're not going to take a thousand yard shot if he was missing at 500, you know? So, um, man, people, people read into the,
like, they're looking for something obviously to, to get mad about, but, uh, yeah, you, man,
and you feel bad because Matt is like, Matt grew up around guns. His dad, um, is one of the guys
that taught me how to shoot guns. Like, so I was left eye dominant as a kid and I went over to their house and I'm trying to shoot right-handed, but left eye down. So he actually taped my eye
shut for the whole weekend that I was there, this left eye. So my right eye would take over.
And so Matt is one of the best shot. Like if I'm going to shoot with anybody and put money on
somebody, Matt's that person that I'd put money on. And so for him to miss was very uncharacteristic.
And then what you see too is when the gun just doesn't load,
the first time you can see him kind of lunge into the gun,
but the second time there's no movement whatsoever.
And so the hard part is it's like not his gun.
After he shot it and missed those three times at
that 500 yard shot and there's wind and all kind of stuff in there so um you know not shooting a
gun and having shot a gun for the first time is is tough so it's just different um we'll get back
to matt in a second i want to go back to the cleaning thing. So how many, how many elk or how many animals have you cleaned?
Is that what it's called? Is that what it's called?
Yeah, you would, you would gut one and then quarter it or skin it,
whatever it is. So I've now probably four,
three or four whitetail that I've helped out to probably that I've done myself.
One, two, four elk, four elk five elk now well we
didn't skin mats we just we were so close to the road and then with that bear we just gutted it
and then carried him out because it was uh I didn't want to mess up the hide because I will
I would like to keep that and my knife skills like I said I'm, I'm not super proficient yet. Um, and so I didn't want to mess it up too much. Um, do you want to be so good at it that like, I want it to be second nature, you know,
like I can just hop in there and do it. You know, like, uh, we went on a guided hunt earlier in
Idaho, um, to be, to, um, with a TV show and the guide said, the guys usually just shoot it,
with a TV show. And the guide said, the guys usually just shoot it, come take a picture and leave. They don't help clean or do anything like that. And so I'm like, Hey, let me, you know,
show me what I need to do here. And he was, luckily the whole group was like that, but he said, yeah,
most, most people are just like, Oh yeah, just, you know, bring it to me at the house or whatever.
And some people won't even keep the meat. So I had to ship my meat back from Idaho. They're like, hey, this is really expensive. At no point did I ever even question if I was
going to send the meat back. I think it was in the range of $2,000 to ship this meat back.
What would you do? Just give it to someone else to eat?
I wouldn't. Some people will. I'd just give it to whoever, or there's,
um, there's a organization called, um, hunters for the hungry and you can donate meat. And so does the guide have 10 refrigerators full of meat? I would, I would assume, or maybe the
processor or whatever. Um, we have a community freezer in the barn that, uh, people can just
go grab stuff if they want some stuff out of the freezer. So it's all game meat.
And then I'm actually – At Mayhem you have that?
At the barn.
Wow.
And so I'm actually –
So if Haley's there or something or Guy's there, they just grab a fucking –
If they want to.
If they want to grab a pound of meat.
Wow.
Yeah, if they want to.
Wow.
And then I want to get a hanging fridge or hanging freezer for one of our sheds.
And then we – so this – the last couple of years –
Like Rocky? Like Rocky? Yeah. Where you go punch the meat then we, so this, the last couple of years.
Like Rocky?
Like Rocky?
Yeah, yeah.
Just like that, punch it?
Yeah.
Yeah.
The last couple of deer we've had,
we had kind of a little weekend party
where we ground up the meat, made our own stuff.
And we had three deer that we just processed
right there in the shed.
So we didn't, so the hard part for me is
if you know a processor and you've got like somebody that you that you trust to do it, then you know, your meat's coming back.
But sometimes you take a meat, some take your meat somewhere and you don't know,
and who knows what comes back. Right. So, um, the more, more involved you can be in the whole
process, uh, I'm for it. And so I think it'd be a cool, like you're saying, like,
cool thing to teach the kids. The kids have been there multiple times when we've, um, you know, got, I'll send you a picture of Trice carrying this backstrap. Like they want
to be part of it and see it. And, you know, there's, um, I mean, there's a, a, a biology
lesson in there as well. Like, Hey, what is that? What is like Lakeland's holding the heart,
you know, an important one that most kids won't ever get. Exactly. You know, you might get one
in high school where you're, you know, dissecting a formaldehyde cap, but that's not real life.
And you and your friends don't give a shit and you're just trying to fucking throw the genitalia at each other.
Exactly.
Which that still happens at times.
Did someone get some genitalia thrown at them when you guys were gutting the deer?
It is what it is. I got you. Thatcha that's awesome here here's the uterus yep so but you know the kids
are like hey what is that you know what you know what why are you doing that and so it's really
cool when you see that kind of full circle of um you know they're not they're not gross violet at
times was like oh i don't know if i like that you could kind of tell she was getting a little squeamish.
But at a young age, if you can kind of get over that.
Because some people can't handle blood.
It is what it is.
They see the insides on the outside and they come unhinged.
It's hard for some.
It really is.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sousa was getting...
You get a little queasy?
I forgot about that.
It got fucking all...
Did you get all woozy?
Yeah, a little woozy.
They wouldn't draw my blood afterwards.
Really?
Yeah, they're like,
hey, all the colors out of this dude's face.
We can't do it.
I'm like...
You saw Hiller getting his blood done,
and you got woozy?
Yeah, I was with Hiller
when he got his blood work done,
and he's like, film this. And I'm like, okay, and okay and i'm filming it all of a sudden i was like i can't i
can't watch this i don't know why and i had to look away and then when it was oh you don't even
know why just a reaction you have you don't even know like it's not like this is gross dude growing
up skateboarding one time a dude clipped a rail came down bap his face but busted both the teeth
out blood everywhere and didn't really have an issue with it but when it was sitting there
watching hillary for whatever reason 20 years later i couldn't i got queasy i don't even know
why yeah man i used to love roller coasters and then we went on a roller coaster and at no point
am i scared i'm black we did like a little loop-de-loop thing with lakeland and next thing i
know like i'm out for a split second like the g's of it awesome god i love that i'm like what the
hell and then i get
off of my stomach is it right i'm like man you're such a bitch you know like i cannot do roller
coaster i used to love them you know like i could do anything that wasn't spinny like a fair ride
like those coasters you couldn't you could oh hell no no we had a uh i had a a sandlot moment
as a kid we we just got out of a baseball game. We went to the fair, Putnam County Fair, and me and Matt, we were probably second, third grade or something like that. We're riding some rides.
Wow, you really have known him a long time. ride and him and my other buddy are like well we're gonna go ride this ride i'm like all right good so i sit out a ride they're like come on come on i'm like all right i'm good i think i'm good
we hop on it was almost identical to the ride on the movie sandlot and it's spinning around
and i'm like oh nope it's coming so i'm trying to like get the guy's attention to stop it
he won't stop it i puke onto matt matt pukes onto other buddy. My other buddy pukes off the side.
It was insane.
How stoked were you when they puked?
I felt better. I'm like, I don't want
to be that guy, but as soon as they puked, I'm like,
all right, I'm not the weakest
link in here. I puked. He
puked. He puked. It was a trained
reaction. Felt so bad for the
guy that had to clean it up.
I tried to stop. I'm like, hey, stop. Stop. He wouldnuked. He puked. It was like train reaction. Felt so bad for the guy that had to clean it up. But, hey, I tried to stop.
I'm like, hey, stop.
Stop.
And he wouldn't stop.
Misery loves company.
Frogat, great to see Rich froning on.
Been binging on so much OG Rich content lately.
Coaching my first class tonight.
Oh, awesome.
Any tips from
any of you? Would be great to hear stories
from classes Rich has coached too.
Rich, any tips for this guy?
Man, I think it's just have fun.
They're there for you to teach
them something, but also it should be
the most fun hour of their day
and enjoy.
I've been coaching a lot lately, but I've
been going to the two o'clock
class here at Mayhem probably been four or five times in the last month or so. So it's been a lot
of fun and it's cool just to see, you know, see everybody and everybody getting in there in
different levels. And you got people in there that want to push a little too hard and I'm like,
damn it, here we got to go. You know, so we did one the other day, Darren had it programmed. It
was 10 sets. you did 15 cal
echo bike and then max burpee box jump overs in 90 seconds and then you got a 90 second rest
and i think i had to do 143 burpee box jump overs just to stay ahead of this other guy in the class
i was like you bastard can't you just like mail it in you know so do you have any advice for him
yeah use everybody's name at least like two or three times keep going just just use their name you know? So do you have any advice for him?
Yeah.
Use everybody's name at least like two or three times.
Keep going.
Just,
just use their name.
Nice job,
rich seven.
That was awesome,
dude.
Good job.
Hey,
rich elbows up.
You can never,
nobody in your class would ever say you didn't give them attention or they didn't feel the connection.
I like that.
Yeah.
That's horrible with names.
That's good.
Yeah.
Um,
when Scott put this thing together
um did he what did he watch other um uh is this a genre i've never seen a video like this but i
thought this one was really good i thought the fucking music was i was paying attention to
the edit and i'm like wow this i watched it last i wanted to go to bed but i knew you were coming on so i watched it late last night and i'm like fuck
but man the 39 minutes blew by and there was some tense moments and some moments where i'm like oh
are they really fighting and then the the missing the shots and then right the late a couple of the
late pushes twice you made late pushes and then i'm like whoa fuck hillary's there what is she
doing there yeah right i didn't know she did that shit so i was like how did scott know how to edit is that new for him a new genre or like what did you guys talk about it
did he watch i think i think i think scott's a master at whatever he does um he does watch i
mean he does a lot of research i think too you know as much as i've gotten into hunting he's
gotten into it just as much um and i you know josh malone made the joke around here because
we've gotten a lot of people on staff into hunting and everybody's like, oh, just because Rich is hunting, everybody's hunting
now. Which I mean, is kind of cool, right? But I think, but my kind of obsession with it, I think
has kind of bled over. Scott's like, he's all in and it's not even like his wife makes bone broth
out of the bones now and like we're using the entire animal.
And so I think he has gotten into it just as much as I have, but from a creative aspect, like he wants to showcase the emotions that go into it.
You know, it's not just walking out here shooting some animal and, oh, you know, like we always use the term it's hunting and not killing because it is so hard.
People want to talk about, oh, you're using a high powered rifle against an animal, defenseless animal that, you know, but you're going into their their arena or their their where they live and they have all the advantages.
You know, I prefer archery like I'll go on record saying I prefer to do it with a bow, that style, the more intimate, being close.
But here's the deal.
As the season progresses, you can use a weapon with more range because these animals throughout the season get smarter and smarter and harder and harder to kill.
If I had more time and could leave my family for six to eight weeks, I would go multiple times within that six to eight
weeks archery and do it that way. I would 1000% prefer to do it that way. But I, you know, I don't
have the time. And so we have gone rifle quite a few times, and it is still incredibly hard. And
so I think Scott's trying to showcase the emotion of that there's such an emotional roller coaster of you know highs and
lows and and getting close and then it not happening like if you watch our archery video
from earlier in the year it's 50 something minutes and we do not kill anything but it's pretty cool
how he captures just um how awesome it was like we we called a bull into 15 yards, one of the coolest experiences I ever had,
and I didn't kill it. It was that close and to not have a shot.
What happened? He ran? He ran?
Yeah. We call him in. I'm still learning a lot of the stuff. What I like to do is I like to learn
by doing. We call this bull and we're trying to get the wind. You want to keep it from
winding you because that's their strongest scent. so you're paying attention to where the wind
is we're trying to get higher than him we almost similar to that bear where we dropped down went
all the way up this hill and i mean it's some of the nasty at some point we're on all fours
crawling through this brush and it's called oak brush and um it's just nasty and thick and so i
keep calling to try to figure out where he's at
but i'm also calling me and you're blowing yeah blowing in in archery you're blown into the the
tube and trying to piss him off basically or just locate him well i'm trying to piss him off and get
closer and closer to hopefully keep him there and then maybe draw him in once we get into an open
spot well so he thinks you're another male maybe he thinks he thinks we're
yeah and so as i i make a mistake in getting too close to him and not having a shot right so we
thought and that and that's a big thing about knowing what i mean the brush is so thick you
can't oh it's awesome yeah it's incredibly thick to where you can't see i mean you can see but
i'm not going to take a shot through a bunch of brush and take the chance of it
missing where i'm trying to shoot and make a bad shot and hit him somewhere that, you know, is just going to injure him and not kill him.
And so as we're pushing in, pushing in, I think he's about 50 yards out.
We sit down for a second because we'd close every 15 yards or so.
I sit down and I look and this thing is looking.
It had gotten up and it's looking through the brush doing this type of deal.
And I'm like, Scott, sit down.
And he's like, what?
I'm like, it's staring right at us.
And he's, where?
And I'm like, don't move and shut up.
Like, shut up.
And sure enough, this thing looks and it can't figure out what we are.
So it takes off about 50 yards, right?
So I'm trying to, I'm like, damn, it's gone.
Well, when we start moving, we start moving some brush.
Well, it thinks that we're – they'll rake trees to kind of show dominance
or territory or whatever.
So this thing just starts raking trees with its horns.
So I just start raking trees with a stick.
Well, it would rake.
And we just keep doing that back and forth.
That's awesome. Then I call again, and he's only about 50 yards away. So we start the pursuit again,
but he's moving away because I think he thinks we're a bigger bull and he doesn't want to mess
with us. Well, we get into an open area and I'm like, oh, I'm an idiot. I should cow call thinking
now he'll come back thinking there's cows. Well, as I call, 10 elk come up over this hill and we're kind of stuck.
Well, the problem is there's eight or 10 cow elk, and then there's this stupid little spike bull.
He's a young bull. Then he has one horn and then a huge bull higher up. He basically sends this
little one in like his tribute. And the bulls are male elk? Yeah, bulls are male elk. And so he's
basically sending this little one in his tribute because you can bulls are male elk and so he's basically sending this
little one in his tribute because you can't shoot them they have to have uh in colorado we have to
have uh three or four points i don't remember now um i know every time we go what it is but it's
three or four points and one has to be a six inch brow time anyway we i know that this is brow time
a six inch penis no time, not brow pine.
And so I see this really, really big bull up the hill,
but this spike is coming around, and he's about to wind us.
And you just talk about the emotions of, like, you're full on, like,
my hands are quivering. You have a pistol, and you're like, fuck this.
No, no.
But you do have a pistol in case there's a mountain lion or something, right?
See, I need to start carrying a pistol, so I don't now.
Oh, you're crazy.
I know, I know.
You're crazy.
If I was in grizzly country, I 1,000% would.
But yeah, now that I know that there's these mountain lions where we're at,
I'll definitely start doing that.
But anyway.
Hey, dude, I was rolling with one of my friends the other day.
It is in California.
California is sketchy.
Just a regular person. Yep. and they open up their backpack and they had a fucking
gun in there like you you carry a gun they're like yeah i'm like you got concealed carry they're like
no it's california yeah in tennessee that tennessee that's legal i'm like it's gotten like that here
this person is the last person in the fucking world you think would have a fucking gun.
And you're going into the sticks without a gun?
Yeah, yeah.
Probably safer than California.
Never said I was smart, you know?
Never claimed to be smart.
So all those guys got away?
Yeah.
You can't shoot the girls?
The spike busted us.
This was early on in the hunt.
early on in the hunt. And so, um, you know, day three or four, I usually go for a bull. And then after four or five, um, in archery, if it's an either sex tag, then I'll take a cow. But you
know, you want to kind of like the ideas is the beginning of the hunt. I want to go for a bull,
but then towards the end, you're just like, all right, meat it is.
Why do you want to, um, a dude?
Oh, I don't know. There's just something to it like i know i knew that we could
get a cow later on in the season because there's so many more yeah well they just they group up
differently and then they split up and it's it's there's this kind of like weird how they
their their whole biology works but that's way longer of a podcast um so so so scott
like you see so you think scott has studied other hunting videos i guess
when at the end of the day like i think this was an incredible video i think so and i think he's
also put his own twist on it you know i think he's um kind of taking what we do here at mayhem
and kind of put his own flavor on it i think they like like you said they he captures him and even
ben did one of our archery hunts two years ago that he wasn't even on when we killed the bull.
And the music on it, man, it's just so like it captures the emotion really well because that's the hard part to capture, I think.
And a lot of these is just the ups and downs of what goes on into these hunts.
You know, it's not just like you walk out.
We've yet to have one where you just walk out and you're like, oh, let's kill first morning whatever it is i mean we've had to work for it um does scott have uh two cameras with
him uh yeah he carries now as as we've kind of progressed he's got a kind of a longer lens camera
and i actually okay i was wondering how he's getting some of those shots i actually stole
i stole his i stole his uh uh tripod for a rest in that shot if you notice the
shot that i take i was like give me that and he's like yeah but i can't get the shot i'm like we
don't have a show if you don't like we need something you know so uh he was he was good
about that yeah if you watch when matt is like matt's on a nice tripod matt's on a nice carbon
fiber tripod that was the that was the same tripod i used so when i used it first so i'm like i've got that one he's trying to find two or three bedded down and he's
like if you see the time lapse he's like moving around in the trees trying he's like i can't find
one i can't get a wrist i can't do this i can't do this blah blah and he's just so loud i'm i
literally just take scott's tripod and i'm like all right we got a good shot. You know, where are you right now? Uh, I'm in Rory's office.
Oh,
cool.
Yeah.

The one time we did go hunting there.
Julie Smitherman.
Julie.
What's up, girl?
My husband and I met Rich Froney Jr.
during a spectator workout at Rogue.
He worked out with a cool guy that lost a ton of weight.
It was an awesome example of the value of CrossFit. Rich took pics and
hung out after. What a cool dude. That was this most
recent time? Yeah.
We had a couple of mayhem athlete
spectator workouts.
I try to get out there and hang out and have some fun
and do some fitness.
I think that was a ski snatch one.
You did the Legends comp and you worked out
with the common man?
Yeah, the Legends.
The workouts, I did tear my hands,
which I've not torn my hands in years on that killer cage.
I kind of wish there was a little bit more structure to the Legends.
It's a little bit harder on us.
Oh, really? You do wish it was a little harder?
Yeah, we had some fun. It's fun to get everybody out there. I wish there was like, hey, it's a little bit harder on us it was uh oh really you do wish it was a little harder yeah you know we had some fun it's fun to get everybody out there i wish there was
like hey let's partner up um a couple months in advance you know your partner and then have some
some events and we could you know figure out how to make sure everybody could be involved but
uh i mean it's fun to get out there what you so you would like it to be a little more competitive
and a little just a little you think it's just all Special Olympics?
Dear Bill and Katie, Rich doesn't want to be part of Special Olympics.
No, I didn't say that.
I didn't say that.
It's fun.
It's still a good time.
But, yeah, you know, when people are like, oh, I can't do that.
So they just don't even do it, you know?
Oh, oh, oh.
You know?
Yeah.
Which I get.
You know, we're out there and we're not making it.
Josh Everett.
Was it Josh Everett because he's old as shit?
No, Josh.
Dude, Josh crushed it, dude.
Josh was great uh i'm talking to jason having josh do some of his killer cage for him
i love shit and i see jason drop down and josh jump up in the middle of the killer cage and i'm
that's not fair come on jason's arms are too big he can't he has a limited time he can hold him
over his head his triceps i mean i guess. Starts cutting off blood flow.
What do you think about Jason's whole... He's gotten way into
jiu-jitsu. Man, that's awesome.
I wish I had the joints
and ligaments to do it. Everybody's like, you should try
jiu-jitsu, but I just feel like
I would get my... There's my left
shoulders hanging on by a thread already. I don't need
somebody tugging on it and just rip it off.
But I think it's awesome.
Anytime, anything you can do to, you know, still be competitive and, you know, find something to train for.
That's what I tell people.
Even if you're not training for the CrossFit Games.
For me, I need something to, I don't, I'm not a huge, like, goals.
Like, I need a, you know, a month goal or something like that.
I need kind of events or things to train for and a target, I guess.
He's a fucking brown belt.
That's crazy.
That's awesome.
That's gnarly.
I remember when he started.
Yeah.
It's been, what, three or four years ago?
Eight.
Eight years ago?
Holy cow.
Time flies, right? what three or four years ago eight eight years ago holy cow wow time flies right he might he might
he might like uh i i suspect he's like legitimately dangerous yeah i bet i mean heck yeah he's got
that much strength yeah that dude's dangerous before he's been doing jiu-jitsu now he knows
what to do with it yeah he's deadly he went from dangerous to deadly yeah um allegra r allegra hey uh rich uh what a true legend just watch your podcast and video
with cam uh haynes what great videos man cam's a man he's he's a cool dude um you know he joked
that he'd never done crossfit so we sneakily snuck some he does crossfit like not pure crossfit he's
you know he runs a lot and does the in endurance stuff but that's what i think
it's funny when people are like oh i don't i don't do crossfit i'm like i mean you do functional
movements you constantly vary them and it looks like you do stuff at high intensity so um you
know people just don't like he's 55 or something 50 50s yeah solid dude though good guy i mean what
i mean but he's a solid dude?
Like there's not a lot of solid dudes who are over 50?
Why but?
There was no but.
There was no but.
It was just he's a solid dude.
I'm very sensitive.
I know, man.
Do I need to do an apology?
56 years old, Cam.
He's older than my sister.
He's a monster.
Is he on TRT?
I don't know.
I've never asked him uh young clark seve will you and rich come to scotland if bill and katie take rogue to scotland man i love uh that's one place i want
to go back that i've only visited very very briefly was edinburgh um such a cool city old but very clean yeah i went there once for a film festival it's cool and i think
crossfit paid for it and so i shot some crossfit content when i was there too right uh sebi sebi
have you met rich he works out numerous times a day i know but he's old i saw him in an interview
recently where he says he worked only that works out six days a week now i don't think i said that i still work out some days a week no no i saw um uh in the uh let's
talk about that for a second yep so um crossfit hq the the their their their content creation
since 2018 has hit a roadblock.
Just straight into a fucking wall. Boom.
I'd be a roadblock.
Or into quicksand or whatever.
And all of a sudden now they're ramping up production again. And it looks like that they're trying to do it with budget in mind.
Fiscally responsible?
Yeah, yes. Thank you. budget in mind to be to fiscally responsible yeah yes thank you and it sounds like someone
has come up with the um idea because i think i've seen this a few times now and i think it's
probably what i'm guessing what happened i don't know if this is true i'm just making this up but
um charlie duby has a company called hamilton road i'm guessing hamilton road has some sort
of contract with crossfit to produce content and so And so what I think that they've done is they took your video – basically the same thing I'm doing right here.
They took your video, they watched it, and then they interviewed you about the video, and then they spliced the two together.
And it's on the main site.
Have you seen – so Sean Woodland did an interview with you, and they spliced it together with the footage from –
Oh, it's cool.
They spliced it.
It's a cool video. with you and they spliced it together with the footage oh it's cool they spliced it it's just
a cool video they spliced it together with your hunting footage and and then they released it on
their main site so you didn't even know that's what they were doing when you were doing that
interview with sean what did you think you were doing uh i he said we were doing a crossfit piece
um i didn't know that they would use b-roll from us but yeah yeah it's it's it's way cool so
basically he said so that's what i'm
trying to get if i'm trying to get like the temperature on what cross is doing so he said
hey we're making a piece and he works for hamilton road so he said we're making a piece can i
interview because it's not he's not in his um his uh talking elite fitness uh yeah it was like a
separate thing we did a talking elite fitness after which if you get a, skim through that and just watch Trice the whole time.
Oh, I did.
I watched that.
I watched that whole thing.
I wanted like, you know, I keep it pretty well together on video.
But Trice is literally, he's got this.
And it reminded me of the, you know, the SNL, my dad's mayor.
Why don't you put the crack down on him?
Why don't you put the crack down on him?
He was, I mean, he was just having fun. Are you a pushover, dad? Are you a pushover on him? Why don't you put the crackdown on him? He was just having fun.
Are you a pushover, Dad?
You can ask my kids.
Usually when it gets to about two, he's like,
okay, okay, okay.
Is Rich cool with that?
You're in public.
I don't think you had to put the smackdown on,
but if it was bothering you, I'm surprised you didn't.
It was getting annoying.
It really reminded me me if you see the
my dad's mayor rudy giuliani snl with chris uh chris farley it's it was very similar to that
um i thought it was a good mental test to see if i could keep talking and keep my train of
thought with him jumping all over me but yes i did want to strangle him. I would give that interview an eight and it being the absolutely worst interview with you ever.

Yeah, she's like, let me get some famous in here.
Could you tell her, hey, take your fucking brother out of here?
I was trying to insinuate that. Is she capable of that?
Oh yeah, she
puts the Smackdown on Trice on the regular.
Yeah, Greg's kids are like that.
His older daughter like...
Everybody's like, oh, you let those
you let them do that? I'm like, hey, they got sorted out themselves, you know, like everybody's like, oh, you let those – you let them do that?
I'm like, hey, they got sorted out themselves, you know?
Yeah.
It's cool having the – it's crazy watching the girl run the – because Greg's four kids, the girl runs the show, the older girl.
Matt said one time he – I was there or I was doing something else.
He was sitting in the living room.
We have an in-ground trampoline.
She said – he said, Trice and Lakeland are, you know, going at each other.
And he's like,
ah, should I step in? Should I not? I'm going to let it play out a little bit.
Trice knocks Lakeland down. Trice is standing over him. And she takes both feet and kicks him
up under the chin. And you know the movie Snatch with Brad Pitt where he's like parallel?
Yeah.
He said, Matt said, Triceice does that lands on his back matt jumps
up to go help he said trice jumps right up and just starts like getting on top of her like
they're full-on fight like he was like i thought trice died do you have a rule about head kicks i
got this rule we have no head no head kicks i say no and my kids don't know and no like pushing from
behind the one that bothered oh yeah i don't like pushing from behind. The one that bothered. Oh yeah. I don't like pushing from behind.
I'm like,
come on.
Like just,
just if you're going to like,
if they're running away,
get in front of them,
you know,
like my Hillary doesn't,
she does not do well with it.
She had a sister and she was,
Hillary was kind of the,
you know,
keep a sister safe where our kids are just every man,
every time they're together,
somebody starts,
you know,
like it starts off fun,
fun,
fun.
And then all of a sudden it's just throwing, throwing swings.
My kids will also grab each other's heads.
Just fucking put a palm on your face, palm on the back of your head and just slam someone down.
I'm just like, holy shit.
Savages.
Savages.
I'd like to go back to this.
Seve, will you and Rich come to Scotland if Bill and Katie take Rogue Scotland?
This isn't your question.
I will go anywhere that Katie and Bill pay me to go.
I love Bill and Katie.
Pay for my travel.
There you go.
Yeah, in a suitcase.
First class.
First class.
First class.
Just said that in there.
Plus a suitcase.
I want to sit between Bill and Katie if we go.
I'm not joking. I know you we go. I'm not joking.
I know you're not.
I'm not joking.
All right, guys.
This is going to be exciting.
Except I'm going only if I can sit between you guys.
Facilitated conversation.
Bernie Gannon.
So that's what they're doing now.
Sorry, before we get to Bernie.
So that's what they're doing now.
So when Sean asks you, does he say, say hey this is going to go on dot com and we're going to promote the hunting thing i thought it was kind of risky that they did that
because you even say in the interview you're like yeah this isn't the most damaged goods
yeah but but they embraced you and they put you on the front yeah yeah i mean we talked a little
bit about leadville um and just doing things outside of the gym you know i think that's what
we're all trying to do, right,
is to get people to actually use their fitness.
I think, you know, fitness in the gym is great, but you're not doing it.
I don't know how those Palestinian protesters are using their fitness.
I don't need them using their fitness for that shit.
That's true.
That is true.
That's not terrorism though, right?
Can you denounce?
Let's get double canceled here i'm down well i was watching i was watching the president of fucking like
harvard the other day be interviewed by congress and they're like can you denounce um uh the demand
that all jews are killed as uh can can you say that that's bullying if you say that on campus
that all jews must die? Bullying.
And she's like, well, it depends on context.
It's free speech, right?
It's like, hold on a second.
This is a college campus.
This isn't like you in front of your – in your front yard.
Yeah.
No, hey, we're going to put a government ban on information about COVID, but you can tell people you can kill them.
You can't –
I'm sorry.
Sorry.
Sorry.
Free speech. Free you know i don't
can you imagine can you imagine going on to like ucla with 20 year homies and being like uh
we demand the death of all italians no and then then being like and it'd be okay
that is a peaceful protest peaceful or at least at. At least if you're the president
of the
university, you'd be like,
hey, dude, legally they can do it.
I fucking hate that shit. What's wrong with these people?
How about bare minimum?
Just being like, yeah, I don't want the
demanding of killing of anybody on my campus.
No, absolutely not.
Bizarre.
Maybe just one bear and two elk you can kill animals but not
people come on people that are against hunting have made threats to my wife that i hope she dies
like what so that really happened that's that has happened she had a post like multiple i saw you
say something on your podcast about that and i'm like that say what you want to me like i don't
care um i'll wear your wife they did your wife i'm pretty sure there's a comment on one of her just
recent posts it wasn't even to do with anything it was like i hope that gun malfunctions and you
die the same way that bear did what is what are like holy shit what is wrong with you people
people i don't get it like i said come at me i don't care um i'll take it hey that's the kill to fight
killing exactly kill a human racism to fight racism it's the whole thing is just ass backwards
people who do that you should be careful yeah yeah that's true yeah you should be careful
threatening people's like children and wives and like it's crazy man bizarre how does she handle it
she she didn't i mean obviously it's she's she's tough she's super tough woman but uh yeah for sure
that's you know somebody tells you they want you to die like that's yeah yeah it's gonna get at you
a little bit so if they're over six years old you can't say that to someone yeah she was like maybe maybe we don't post another bear i'm like well i won't post you
in the bear you get the you need to get the last dinosaur yeah i'll go kill a alligator rhino a
white rhino yeah in a zoo in a zoo do you think? What do you think about that?
I do. I don't like these this idea. Maybe maybe it could be explaining to me.
I don't like this idea of dudes hanging out in. Blinds that are facing feeders.
Yeah. They feed the deer and then the dude shoots a deer was at the feeder. I don't really like that.
and then the dude shoots a deer while he's at the feeder.
I don't really like that.
Yeah, it's not my style.
You know, at no point, you know, there's these high fences that you look at too and some of them are super big and whatever.
To each their own, I guess.
You know, I don't prefer that style of hunting.
It's more fishing to me. It's, yeah, I don't prefer that style of hunting. Uh, it's more fishing to me. Um, it's, uh,
yeah, I, I don't do it. Really? Fishing's in that same category? Wait, fishing's in that same
category? No, no, I'm kidding. I'm kidding. But you're, you're luring something in with food and
then, you know, it is what it is. I just, I, you know, I've gotten into whitetail hunting now that
I've done more Western style. Um, it's illegal to bait in Tennessee, so I don't do it.
There's some states where it's legal.
In Texas, they have these huge ranches.
They breed the animals on there, and then dudes come on and shoot them from blinds at feeders.
Is it better or worse than industrial farming?
No, it's probably still better.
Those deer will live a much better life.
A good life until that point, as long as they're taking ethical shots.
Like I said, I'm not against it if it's legal.
That's not what I like to do.
Maybe with some hogs or something like that that are more detrimental to the –
if a farmer is trying to keep hogs out from there, messing up
their fields or messing with their cattle or anything like that, you know, it's, there's a
guy named Robbie Kroger, that's, he does this thing called Blood Origins, and he's a conservationist.
And basically, you know, it's, it's a nonprofit conservation company, I guess. And so he, man,
that guy is very well, well versed. So, uh, on those types
of issues, you know, it's, uh, it's different. Some people have just different styles of doing
things. Yeah. I guess if you, if you put it into the relative scope of things of just cows being
fed drugs, packed in shoulder to shoulder, and then, and then when they get so fat and they collapse to the ground they're drugged to be butchered um fucking shooting something from that lived a good life
yeah yeah you know it's like i said it's it's not my style but you know i i don't i don't have a
problem with it if it's legal i feel like it's for people who are out of why do you care if it's
legal or not i don't give a fuck if it's legal well i mean
then at that point it becomes poaching and not hunting you know and i have a problem with poaching
i don't have a problem with hunting i have a problem but but do i i guess i'm just taking
it to this extreme dude if you're if like um you know if let's say one of these uh
freak things happens that everyone that occasionally these wing nuts will talk about about a
uh something that takes down the american u.s grid right yeah and we go dark for fucking a month
you're not gonna be like hey that's it no that's a difference you're not gonna be like i need a tag
no you're gonna be like bring the dogs to the back we're starting with them here comes martial
law you know yeah yeah yeah yeah i mean yeah that point, then it's all. Yeah. Gloves are off property.
One leg,
two leg,
four legs.
You're getting it.
And if you're edible,
you're getting eaten.
If it's Brown,
it's down,
you know,
I don't know if you can say that.
Rednecks.
I don't know if you can say that.
Animals.
Animals.
Right.
Okay.
Careful.
Jesus.
Sorry.
Sorry.
All right.
All right.
I'm out.
That was about you.
That was about you,
Carlos.
Unfollow it again.
Bernie Gannon.
Rich, would you ever consider bringing Sevan on a hunting expedition?
Absolutely.
Rich invites me.
Every time I talk to him, he invites me.
He's like, come on.
Come on.
Come on. It's that thing that they do in Tennessee.
Come on.
Come on.
It hasn't escaped the notice of Seonistas who care about him that he could
seriously use some manning up.
We'll cut that bun off and you'll be good to go.
Holy shit. That would be
amazing. A hunting video where I lose the bun.
Yep.
What are you guys going to do when you find out it's not even
real that I bought this on Amazon
and just put it on?
Hey, is the man bun a correlateora let though probably i don't know probably let me know let me know send me a text after the show i'll do it let's do it i'm in
uh uh uh mike pool boy uh had rich hunted bigfoot yet you haven't seen him yet
if i saw him i'd shoot him too.
What, did you put Bigfoot down?
Just kidding.
I'm kidding.
Two fucking Armenian men just bathing in the woods and they get shot.
Rich is like, sorry, Harry.
Sorry, sorry.
I thought it was Bigfoot.
I thought it was baby Bigfoot.
It's non-native and therefore invasive.
You can shoot it.
You know, that's the thing in Texas.
If it's non-native.
Is that seriously true?
I mean, I'm pretty sure.
I've never hunted in Texas.
That's New Zealand.
That's the cool thing is like a lot of these species of animals are not native and are invasive.
So there's no season for them.
As long as you've got landowner permission, you can hunt them.
as you've got landowner permission you can hunt them uh rich i heard um uh i heard when the rates uh went up uh for the affiliates um that you guys uh the mayhem empire the executive team at the
mayhem empire well i know you don't call them executive team i call you um knights of the court
knights uh come came together and you guys started laughing. I heard you guys just mailed a few gold
bars.
Old bags of gold.
Is that true? You guys are like
4,500 or piddly. I heard you guys
met. Here's some shillings.
Here's some shillings.
You told them not to talk to you
to interrupt the court
for another 20 years. Leave us.
Here you go, peasants.
There's bags of years. Leave us. Here you go, peasants. Just bags of gold.
Chink.
Do you even have time to
think about that?
Are you just too busy making bullets
in the barn?
They've got to do
what they've got to do to justify
what they're doing.
I don't necessarily like, yeah.
I mean, I think if there is some value to the name CrossFit, which I think there is,
um, you know, I, I don't like the fact that you make two, uh, you know, you've got a,
we're going to raise rates and you're going to have to be level two.
Um, luckily the, the, the affiliate is in
Josh's his name. He's the registered, um, because I'm no longer, I was up to a level three and then
I didn't get my CEU. So I'm now, um, I'm not a level, any level certificate holder of CrossFit
at the current moment. I'm a peasant, you know, I'm, yeah, I'm, um, I'm not even,
I'm not even at the table at mayhem, you know, cause I'm not even a peasant. I'm not even at the table at Mayhem
because I'm not even a level
one. Here's the thing. There's no
fucking way if you don't take your level two.
If Josh doesn't take his level two, they don't
de-affiliate you.
Just for shits and giggles, you should wait.
Josh is too by the rules, man.
Josh would not. There is no way.
Josh, if you're by the rules,
you need to fucking wear a you're by the rules,
you need to fucking wear a shirt that fits you.
Oh,
I clipped this and said it to him.
Come on,
Josh.
Come on,
Josh.
So,
so,
um,
uh,
yeah,
so,
so it's,
it's interesting.
Cause you know,
Annie runs that fucking Reykjavik gym with a thousand members up there.
And, you know, it's no sweat off of her fucking Reykjavik gym with 1,000 members up there.
It's no sweat off of her fucking back.
But she still had some concerns.
Well, I just want to know what value they're adding now.
What value are you adding to increase those rates?
Yeah, you say inflation. They don't need to add inflation.
Inflation should be enough of a reason, right? Fuck it, dude. Come on, man. It's been 11 years. increase those rates yeah you say we've inflation they don't need that inflation inflation should
be enough of a reason right like fuck it dude like yeah it's been 11 years yeah it's been 11
years like we're not socialists like you can't fucking worry about every fucking peasant right
feel like work harder yeah yeah i mean but you know you read some of the stories where people
said they were promised that their rate would never go up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But there's – I don't think it's a blanket.
You can – every situation is the same.
That's the hard part.
Like we're in a situation where $4,500 –
Greg said he would never sell the company either though.
So I mean things change, right?
That's true.
And that's the deal.
It's like things change and, hey, here's the deal.
If you don't want to pay the $4,500, don't pay the $4,500.
It's as simple as that.
Let me say something really crazy.
Crazy.
Hot take.
Buckling.
Yeah.
You got another booster.
Excuse me.
Was that it?
Was I guessing?
You think that that's the correlate of my man bun that i get boosters
you got boosters you gotta oh my god greg asked me yesterday if he wanted me to take him he's like
won't take you to get a haircut not a way to drop it can't afford it You were just talking about how expensive it was living out in California.
Okay. You have this Mayhem affiliate program. I don't know a lot about it, but in my head,
I make up basically what it is. Some people pay you a monthly fee and they get support for running workouts at their gym.
Programming and then also some business stuff.
And, you know, we've got a pretty cool team that, you know, challenges and different things that we've done.
And, yeah, you can say that you, you know, use Mayhem programming.
Okay.
I'm going to go over to, let me type into, can you type into Google Sousa Mayhem and then just go to images just see what we get
what if i just want to take my gym like i'm like okay it's forty five hundred dollars is a lot
it's not for me can i just put um uh over my gym takedown um uh santa cruz crossfit and put um no not that mayhem
maybe type in mayhem from mayhem nation or something like that mayhem empire can i put
on my gym seven matosians mayhem empire huge on the rooftop of my gym and we don't we don't
license the name mayhem um you know it's um we do have
a map like an affiliate map of all the gyms that use our programming um we do have that
so i can't do that you can't call yourself like mayhem we've never really gotten into
i you know the who would i call if i wanted to do that uh probably jake which was jake foster
or jake jake walker they're coming on tomorrow huh
or sometime sometime you're about to get scienced up
what is that so jake so jake yesterday he's been like uh he gets in these biohacking wait wait
before you say that before you say i really like the idea i didn't even think of until just now
i really like the idea of Sevan's Mayhem Empire.
There you go.
Hey, Rory and Jake, talk to them.
Partnerships with Rory and Jake's the programmer.
I pay like 50 cents more or something on top of the $129.
Someone did say, hey, how I'm going to afford this is that I'm going to stop buying my affiliate programming.
Whoever it was from.
It's free now. The affiliate programming whether whoever it was from it's free
now like the affiliate programming is free no from someone else is what i'm saying there you go
hey gotta do it is it gonna be bad for your business for your business uh i don't i mean
it is what it is you know like that's that's capitalism right like we gotta do a better job
maybe that is the competitive move you do you start licensing out the name dude it would be
a very powerful name to put on someone's gym.
It's a beautiful logo.
It's also very, hey, people are already intimidated by CrossFit.
We didn't really think about that in the beginning.
People are intimidated by CrossFit.
Now we're going to add the name Mayhem to it.
Yeah.
No, you don't even do CrossFit.
You could even charge people.
You could still say you even have
to have your level one to be mayhem nation affiliate but maybe we just start our own
or our own uh certificate courses uh anyway i heard i heard you could take the level one and
ask ai to rewrite it and it satisfies um copyright oh look at you. IP laws. Oh, look at you.
I don't know if that's true.
Okay, sorry.
The Jakes.
Okay, enough of that.
So Jake Locker is really big.
Let Jake know if they want to talk to me about that.
I got some ideas.
I could be a podcast.
Tell him tomorrow.
Tell him tomorrow.
Okay.
Okay.
So Jake's really into biohacking.
I have a very notable short attention span when it comes to meetings.
About 45 minutes.
Jake Foster or Jake Locker?
Locker.
Locker.
And so i start
derailing things right well when jake gets into like work mode he's tried to like you know things
that help him and stuff like that so he started chewing nicotine gum every once in a while to like
just get in the zone and whatever and he said it chills him out so yesterday we're having a meeting
and i'm like let me try judging the fuck out of him already i'm just so i take out of them i take a half of a piece oh the complete opposite happens full-on like energy through the roof can't sit
still skin crawling yeah can't concentrate worst thing i've ever done to concentrate in a meeting. Nicotine's powerful shit, man.
Holy crap.
All day I was just like full on like hammered
and then also just could not concentrate so much energy.
So yeah, it was, don't take nicotine gum.
I think what I've read is that almost confirms the fact that I have ADD.
Oh, really? Yeah, because it's supposed to, I guess, chill you out a little bit.
Well, it's supposed to allow you to, it's not the word
focus they use. Nicotine is, you know how you'll be somewhere and there'll be
a thousand sounds, but you'll just be focused on what you need to be focused on?
Not me. Not with nicotine. But nicotine's supposed
to do that. to that's why
baseball players like it so much because it allows you just to almost like uh what do they say you
know get in the zone yeah no yeah it does the complete opposite for me it was like squirrel
oh let me think about this let me do this let's do this i can't write it was one of the most
bizarre things i've ever encountered yeah nicotine is a fucking crazy drug. It really was.
Ernie Garza, Rich,
how long did it take you from the first time you shot a bow
to hunting an animal?
I drank the archery juice
and now I want to dive all in.
Two or three years.
There is a lot of
technique that one goes
into the bow, but then two within
bow hunting, the range is way less.
So you've got to like one,
have a really good spot or no,
or do a bunch of research if you're whitetail hunting.
Um,
and then also learn to call or anything like that.
If you're elk hunting.
Uh,
does someone cry more when the bun is cut off or when the animal dies?
Start up when the animal dies? Start a pole.
When the animal dies.
Oh, start a pole.
Like P-O-L-O.
Oh, no.
Not start a pole.
Hey, I'm guessing you want to be really proficient in shooting a bow because you don't want to fucking shoot an animal.
Anything you do.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Same with a gun, but yeah.
Way harder to fuck up with a gun.
Yes and no.
A boat, if you do it right, is extremely lethal.
And it's hard to...
I've never been shot by either of the things, so I don't know.
Robbie, the guy I keep coming back to talks about you know if you think
about it from human terms like if you cut your finger super deep and at first it doesn't really
hurt right and so that's the idea with these blades that are on bows now and the you know
you that the pass-through happens so fast that the animal and if you hit them in a good spot
they're going to die within a couple seconds and And so, you know, you just want to make sure
you're super lethal with it. And so I'm practice way more with a bow because it's easier to
practice than I do with a rifle because, you know, shooting a rifle is one very expensive.
It's not as like, there's something therapeutic to shooting a bow. Um, just the silence, the,
it's just something about it. This is an interesting comment.
Juxtaposition of thoughts.
Stefan, looking old as hell today.
Wow.
Okay.
That's uncalled for.
But look at this.
Sorry, bud.
It's a little Southern, you know, bless her heart.
At the end, if that person's a piece of shit, bless her heart.
As long as you say bless their heart, they're good.
Damn, you have a tiny dick.
Oh, sorry. Sorry.
Sorry about it.
Jesus Christ.
You're rhyming me.
How about just you look old?
The sorry's just weird.
Yeah, you don't need it.
Why not just say you're old? Why not just say, hey, Savon, I'm sorry.
And then I can just be like, what's he talking about jesus um bernie gannon if uh after dangerous game uh sebi could
earn his keep as live bait the sasquatch just tie me down face down naked Sasquatch can come out of a cold
think my ass is a fucking Sasquatch vagina
uh for safety you could attach a rope and pull him back dude you're thinking this you're really
thinking he's got a fantasy there hey what about um what have you have you seen this thing? I thought of you the other
day. This guy has his kids
on an inner tube and he pushes
him down a hill
and then he has a fishing line
attached to it and then he pulls
out his Makita.
Oh, and then we drill.
Yeah, it pushes the head in his drill and it
pulls the kids up. That's some fucking
Tennessee shit, right? That's some Rich Fr it pulls the kids up. That's some fucking Tennessee shit, right?
That's some Rich Froning senior shit right there.
That's for sure.
I was like, wow.
Rich has that.
Not me, dad, maybe.

i found this uh when it popped up when i was just looking at hunting stuff. It just popped up in my feed.
Oh, yeah. Just one more important question.
You're getting targeted.
Have you ever considered a hunting trip
like this?
Oh, shit.
Hogs? Holy cow.
Are they shooting those hogs with a machine gun?
That's like a Tommy gun.
Yeah, it's like a Gatling gun.

Look at it. That would get... that's like a tummy gun yeah it's like a gatling gatling gun gatling gun jeez
that would get yep that would do it holy i just never saw anything like

Yep.
We got our gold bars in bags.
Gold bags.
There's no official plan
for people to become
Mayhem affiliates

whatever people say yeah i've had some interesting experiences and i'm not obviously i can't speak in
generalities and just say well all, all modern women are weird,
but the ones I keep meeting are interesting people. Um, we're like, and not in a good way.
So I'm kind of just like, are you a magnet for liberal girls?
No, not necessarily. Just like a magnet for dramatic. Like, you know, like, like too much where everything's a big deal. And, you know, we're kind of like, you know, hey, I just met you. You know, it's like, let's, let's, let's take a step back. You know, it's not that big of a deal. Create space. So yeah, I'm just kind of, kind of chilling, you know it's not that big of a deal create space but so i yeah i'm just kind of kind of chilling you know um which is weird man you know when you're with someone for for 20 years
and then you dive back into the modern dating game and it's nothing like it was yeah yeah and
that's how i picture i would be i would just like, not know what the fuck is going on. Dude. It's trippy.
It's,
it's fun in a sense.
Cause I don't know.
You're like free,
I guess.
But at the same time,
the,
the security of a relationship is a much more,
can be much more appealing.
Any chance you would,
any chance you'd get back together with your ex just to like,
be like,
all right,
that was weird.
But now I'm coming back to my ex. I that ship has sailed i really do oh wow yeah she she she was just over
her her lifestyle i mean completely the opposite of anything that i'm into as far as you know
health wealth crossfit you know yeah stuff like. She's not into that at all.
It's more party, drink,
you know,
be unhealthy, which, you know,
I like to party, I like to drink,
be unhealthy sometimes, but
not as much as her.
Cave Dasterite,
Sebi, you said you were a hog-up guy.
Yon is asking if Bigfoot would be a hog-up
or down type of guy. Dude, I completely up guy. Yon is asking if Bigfoot would be a hog up or down type of guy, dude.
We're I,
I completely understand.
My,
my question is,
is how come I,
my question is,
is what he's saying.
All right.
We already figured that out.
My question is,
how the fuck do I not know?
And all you guys know my tarded.
Oh,
not at all.
Do you know what they're talking about?
Yeah. Susan figured it out.
He cracked the code.
Sousa's like, did two sides of the Rubik's Cube.
I can't even do one.
Maybe because it got that tism.
Is it like how your hog is in your pants?
Yeah, I'm an up guy.
You're an up guy.
Yeah, I don't like my penis stuck to my balls. I'm an up guy. You're an up guy. Yeah, I don't like my penis stuck to my balls.
I'm an up guy.
Oh.
I mean, you do got a lot of penis to take care of.
Yeah, I don't like it on my leg.
I just like it up.
But my kids are down boys.
It's weird.
I'm like, dude, penis up.
They're like, penis down.
I'm like, what?
No shit.
I didn't even know anyone did penis down.
Now I'm learning a whole new world. A ton of dudes do penis down. I wonder like, what? No shit. I didn't even know anyone did penis down. Now I'm like learning a whole new world. A ton of dudes
do penis down.
I wonder what the ratio is. You think
like 50-50? 60-40?
No, no, no. Most men. What are you?
Are you a penis up guy or a penis down guy?
I'm down, bro. Oh, see?
Most guys are down.
I would think so. I would imagine. I think
you're a rare case.
That's crazy. You've been hanging or what?
I'm not.
That's why I don't even like wearing boxers, except at night when I sleep.
Because I can't have that shit just like dangling down.
You free ball it all day?
No, tighty whities, tighty whities.
Dude, you want to see?
I wear underwear that like gay strippers wear, like gay prostitutes wear.
I wear these underwear called Pump.
Why am I not surprised? They're just, they're the gayest things you've ever seen in your life
yeah you're the straightest gay person i've ever heard of it it's weird no or the gayest i don't
know are these fucking real don't don't come on don are real. I do. I have like 30 pairs of those.
Susan's losing his shit. You didn't know that,
Susan? That's what I wore? Anytime you see me, yeah.
I wear three of those a day. I change my mind to wear
three times a day.
That's fantastic. Why?
Well, you work it out?
I just like to
keep really clean down there. Actually, I don't even know if I like to be really clean down there. I just like to keep really clean down there.
Actually, I don't even know if I like to be really clean down there.
I just like fresh clothes.
No, I get you.
I get you.
I like to change my shirt.
Oh, I thought the gays thing was just a shtick of Seve's. Now he sees what underwear I wear.
Now he's like, oh, no, maybe he really is gay.
You guys are going to have to Google that.
I don't wear the ones
that go up the center of your butt. I don't wear those.
I mean, I wear the... It's a full butt one.
Not every day, just sometimes?
Hey, I even... No, I never wear those.
And I also wear the briefs
that Pump makes, but they're
really tight still.
I'm a brief
guy. You know, you got to keep it tight,
especially with how much we're working out.
You can't be flopping all over the place.
It's too much.
I just don't know if I can bring myself
the way these pumps are talking about.
I think you would look fantastic.
You would rock the shit out of those.
Your game would go through the fucking roof
if you threw those bad boys on.
Is that the answer?
The pumps will bring the right chick along all right yeah maybe i will maybe i will i'm telling you so happy the phone's working
this is better than this phone works better than the this is like an old ass roadcaster this works
better than the one at home yeah it's nice bring it home with you um you've been hanging from a
bar or what i was doing that actually
uh before i um i'm on the road now i'm actually today i didn't work i haven't worked out two days
in a row which for me is absolutely nuts i didn't even realize that but today i'm gonna do um i'm
gonna row 250 in under a minute i'm gonna go probably like stick it like 55 seconds, row 250 in 55 seconds and do 15 pushups,
10 rounds.
Plan on doing that here very shortly.
And I like that.
Yeah.
And the thing is,
is all the pushups have to be done on broken.
So,
so I give myself a little bit,
a couple,
like probably five or six deep breaths before I dive into the,
after every row,
when I get off.
We go on traditional pushups,
diamond pushups.
My pushups are so fucking good.
Just imagine the best fucking,
my pushups are like my squats.
I like,
I have the best pushups ever in the world,
all the way down,
all the way up.
Boom.
Is this the hotel gym?
They got a roar there.
If is a board.
Yeah.
I'm in the nicest hotel you've ever seen.
Are you going over to the Legends then?
I'm going to try to.
I'm going to try to.
I asked Greg if he wanted to go.
He said, yeah, let's go over there and fuck around.
I said, cool.
I wish I had known you were going.
I would have come down there.
No, no, it's not like that.
No, no.
Don't ever do anything because I'm doing it.
Then I feel obligated that I have to actually like spend time with you uh uh did i seriously hear there's a potential for mayhem affiliate
memberships directly to mayhem separate from cfhq uh you did hear that that's my idea uh i don't
know i'm sure brilliant number one sure they've had it but rich played stupid like they don't but dude it's a fucking brilliant idea wait so like so like an affiliate to mayhem just like it would be to hq a regular
gym yeah like hey instead of paying for them i think i think mayhem's affiliate programming is
129 a month so instead of paying 4500 to crossfit just pay mayhem 129 dollars and put a fucking huge mayhem empire
nation and just use your name so it'd be seven matosians mayhem empire and it's you know what
i mean then all of a sudden you're like you've got a cool ass gym name with a fucking the

there yeah i think so yeah and then i want to do a show friday across the games update show
dude um we gotta get the time something fucking crazy real quick yeah it's fucking nuts dude
i guess you're saying i'm getting my l2 renewed. I'm going to go to the Lone Ranger podcast.
Okay.
Do you want me to bring it up or are you?
It's okay.
I got it.
Thank you.
Okay.
I'm going to go to the Lone Ranger podcast.
And I want you to see this.
This makes no fucking sense.
This is the Lone Ranger podcast episode 301 okay a conversation with dawnfall a day ago
how the fuck does this have 599 views we have more than 599 views on this show with Rich Froning already.
If we had Don on, we'd probably have like 1,000 live.
Dude.
But here's the thing.
They do an interview with Don?
Yep.
Guys, it's crazy because this podcast is the first 40 sorry the first 39 minutes might be the worst YouTube video you've ever seen
the Lone Ranger Tonto and the the Dragon Slayer Khaleesi absolutely just nonsense
talk 39 minutes of just like, come on, guys.
And then they get to the hard-hitting stuff.
Dude, they really do.
Oh, they do? Holy fuck.
It's so good, dude. It's so fucking
good. Oh.
They kill it. They should clip that then.
Clip that piece out.
They fucking kill it.
Sean Woodland,
the Lone Ranger, and Tommy Marquez, Tonto, they fucking murder it Sean Woodland the Lone Ranger
and Tommy Marquez
Tonto
they fucking murder it
it's the best interview
Don's ever done
it's nuts
it's nuts
it's absolutely nuts
it's so fucking good
they ask
they fucking drill him
and Don
and Don takes it like
a fucking champ
there's some
there's some corporate
rambling bullshit in there but not a lot compared to the other shit.
It's fucking really good.
So here's the thing I'm tripping on.
Why do you have 39 minutes of, and I'm not joking, probably the worst fucking YouTube video ever,
and then have that be what you need to listen to to listen to 45 minutes of their best work ever.
And I watch a lot of Lone Ranger podcast.
And then why did they why they put this up?
I think a day after they put it on their Patreon.
Why is Don doing interviews with people who allow who who at one point they asked Don a question.
They say this is from one of our patreon members
they're basically leveraging don and hq to make three dollars it's fucking a bad look for everyone
especially uh don and hq well yeah yeah well you you have an you have an obligation to take care
of your guests and and they should have done that.
But kudos to – I would not have asked those questions they asked.
They asked some fucking hard questions.
I would have been – like if I was Don, some of them would have been like, fuck you, none of your business.
But Don – it's a great conversation.
It is, once again, fucking buried.
First, you got to go to their – they got some sort of weird thing going where they first release on patreon or they let you know that only the patreon members can ask questions
and then it goes to spotify and then it comes to youtube it's just fucking scumbaggery in in terms
of their release um it's petty it's petty scumbaggery's too hard it's petty and it's um
it's inappropriate it's inappropriate
for hq to do that if do you feel me on that or do i need to explain why
elaborate on that again what do you mean um everything that any communications with the
affiliates you would want to be free readily available and um uh easily accessible and um
upright and center and like i, it's the best communication.
Hey dude,
there's stuff in there and I'll give you a little tidbit.
Cause I'm going to talk about on the CrossFit Games update show.
At one point he says,
Hey,
our investors are looking for this amount of money on their return.
And you're like,
Holy shit.
That's some fucking,
you don't get any more transparent than that.
Like he tells you exactly what,
how much they want from you fuckers, you affiliates.
They bought a fucking taco truck, and this is what they expect in the return.
He just tells you.
Straight up.
That's gangster, right?
Yeah, it is.
I want to listen to it because I want to comment on it for sure.
So I'm going to listen to it on my way to Hayward today because, yeah.
Dude, just skip the first 39 minutes.
I just don't understand.
It's retardville in terms of the presentation.
These guys should cut it.
Listen, Lone Ranger guys, if you want to pay me, I don't know, $5,000 or $6,000 a month, I'll consult for you.
Hey, was this show done live when they did it?
No, it wasn't, right? Because you said it was on their – They talked about – I think maybe part of it's live when they did it no it wasn't right because you said
it was on there they talked about i think maybe part of it's live and part of it's not i couldn't
i wasn't paying attention too much to that but i took fucking thorough notes i was gonna be proud
of myself the whole the whole team should be proud of don he he murdered it after having some some
not so good uh showings during the week I think just fluff stuff this is not
this is
this is fucking good anyway
bizarre world but once again
why are they going
please no one get this wrong
don't
misunderstand well don't misunderstand this
I don't care that they're going to these
guys they can do what they want
but I just suspect
that this is all ego driven shit because if you wanted we already have 80 000 downloads from our
affiliate shows on on all platforms on the two affiliate shows we've done it's obviously this
is where all the chatter is happening this is where you're going to get the most bang for your
buck why are you going to venues that, um,
I think that this is a better venue.
I don't even know.
I don't know.
Uh, and I would only probably charge them $10,000 to come on the show.
What a steal.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Maybe it's a safe space.
Maybe they have questions ahead of time or orchestrated differently.
I just, I, um, I, uh, it's just, it's, it's fat. It's fascinating to me. Maybe they have questions ahead of time or orchestrate it differently.
It's fascinating to me.
I don't understand their strategy.
Bury the best interview of Don on the platform that's not getting the views.
It just doesn't make sense to me.
Yep.
A lot of the stuff kind of ends up that way, doesn't it and maybe there is a reason maybe there is a reason if i'm but hey on the other hand i i don't think i could have done a better job
it's like i have cotton mouth do you hear that yeah um i couldn't have done a better job than um
than uh the lone ranger and tonto they fucking killed it i could not have done a better job
i would not have but now that you have that clip that shit and put it somewhere
i want to see the views increase after you uh hyped it up so much because i'm for sure
gonna watch and i wouldn't i wouldn't have not not please please don't don't watch it because
i don't want to give them views i think it's gonna happen because you've everybody's curious
now i am so good i want to listen to it on my way down. Hey, you don't have to watch it.
Listen, listen, listen.
Listen, you jackasses.
No one listen to it.
Watch the CrossFit Games update show tomorrow.
I'm going to highlight all the points.
I have fucking meticulous notes.
I'm going to go through all of them.
It's going to be a good crew tomorrow.
Spin, Young, and...
Hiller. Hiller
Hiller
are we gonna try to do that at the normal time
I don't fucking know idea
okay
that's a very important question we have to answer
yeah
I need to invite him I don't know if I'm ready to invite him
on the show but I probably should
I should invite him even just
for political reasons just so
he knows like he's always welcome here yeah maybe i think he knows you want to know why i don't want
to invite him i don't want to i don't want him not like in a bad way i just i like i don't know
i like that space oh between oh like we bring him on we come friends with him then we can't just
fucking ass pound him not that i mean yeah it's like i don't know what we're gonna get out of them that would
be hey we're not gonna i just want to have a real conversation and i i don't think that
i'm not interested in pressuring him to talk about shit that maybe he doesn't want to talk about
yeah i think that's what i meant i think the lone ranger and tonto did an amazing job at that that
wasn't offensive it wasn't rude and i just don't want to do that to him yes i don't know why i
don't want to do that to him i i'm and if you're just gonna say it's because i'm a pussy it could
be yeah it it it 100 could be i'm not like oh no i'm not a pussy but i could be i just don't want
to do that to him but i also don't want to have him come on here and talk corporate talk to me.
Yes.
Thank you for articulating what I meant when I said no.
Not like I don't want to have a conversation with that.
I'd love to, but I feel like, you know.
I would like to go get drunk with him at a bar.
That I would definitely be game for.
Yeah.
Here's some stories and stuff.
Yeah.
hear some stories and stuff yeah yeah uh here exactly bring uh bring him uh mike alvin bring him on and then get a dollar 99 comment
asking his take on black squares hey all right or or what if i said hey i'm having dawn on but
you can only ask him questions if you pay money. That's what I feel like some of these other
people have done.
There's that component. And that's a horrible
look. Yeah.
You're $1.99.
Anyway,
they absolutely killed that interview.
And tomorrow on the CrossFit Games
podcast, I'll review it. Please
don't watch them.
Do not go over to the Lone Ranger podcast and watch the interview with Don at the 45-minute mark.
Do not.
How do you think people are interpreting that?
Is he saying not to or is he saying to?
I think it doesn't matter what you say.
Either way, they're going to hate on me.
Yeah, don't matter.
I can't believe he was so negative towards us.
We increased our views by double.
You sent everybody going there.
Hunter's coming on soon.
Yeah, he's coming.
Johnny, thanks for asking.
I'm going to try to do a Christmas show with Hunter and Hiller, too, on Christmas.
We think way far in advance we already have our whole 2024 schedule
done here
we actually do
we're in February
we got this guy
coming on who ran 50 miles
in under 5 hours
get your head fucking wrapped around that
yeah Charlie no way Seval and that's not true 50 miles in under five hours. Get your head fucking wrapped around that.
Yeah.
We got some Charlie.
No way, Seval, and that's not true.
It's fucking nuts, dude.
Hey, we got the former president or operations officer for Levi Strauss coming on.
She got back to me, too.
Oh, she did?
Yep. Looks like we got some lockdown.
She left Levi Strauss because of the whole woke thing.
I think she wouldn't take the injection.
I think that's why she left.
She wouldn't take the injection.
Yeah, that's going to be a cool story to hear.
Or not.
No.
We got some cool people coming up.
Tom McCoy, I think he's a physician
He's coming on after the two Jakes
Yeah, he's Saturday
That's a fucking good question
So, Alexis Landot
That fucking guy
You know what's funny is
He big-timed us
Go over to his Instagram account And tell him to come on the show You know what's funny is he big-timed us.
Go over to his Instagram account and tell him to come on the show.
He basically said he has to check with his agent.
People are such fucking – All 420 of you guys right now just did nothing but just tagged the podcast Instagram handle.
What a douche nozzle.
I want to be like, hey, dude, this is the only real podcast you're going to fucking do anyway.
Like, I don't care.
Don't do it then, you dildo.
Alexis, he was so cool when he came on.
It bummed me out that he responded like that.
Yeah, that's I mean, that happens, you know.
How about relationships?
How about relationships?
All right.
I do.
I care.
Will Branson, who cares about Alexis Landau?
I do.
I want to hear about him climbing the fucking bourgeois tower.
Yeah, the bougie-dougie in Dubai.
Yeah.
All right.
What's up, Dan? Dan Guerrero oh yeah i should i should probably have hibble on again
too after his goons attacked me on instagram good i just i love him in the um
i love him in the YouTube comments too. All right, guys.
Shut Up and Scribble will be on today in two hours?
Yeah, two and a half hours.
Okay.
It's going to be a good show over there today.
I heard JR's coming out of the closet today.
Tune in to find out.
I can be a female
hubler.
Taylor's going to let you
know that he's been
juicing all these years
and he can't handle the
pressure of not being
honest anymore.
It's going to be a great
show.
It's the coming out show.
I love my four in the
morning text from Taylor.
What was it?
I can't get under
stream yard.
Oh, oh, because of his
new computer. Yeah. Oh, did you get him in? I hooked't get under stream yard. Oh, because of his new computer?
Yeah.
Oh, did you get him in?
I hooked him up.
Yeah.
Karina Rain, morning, Sousa.
Waterpalooza in Miami again this year?
Ooh.
I think we're letting the crew run it.
But, dude, I'm hearing that the Wadapalooza crew,
that Dylan is running the Carson event.
And if he is running that Carson event and we can get in there,
we will be there in full force filming.
We'll get some crazy behind-the-scenes content for you.
That's right in my hood.
Dude, you know how excited I've been just for the nostalgic part of it,
to be there and, like, that'll be so much.
We're definitely doing the Carson thing.
We just got to hear back from Dylan.
He hasn't responded back to me yet, though.
No, but.
I wonder what the politics will be there again.
If it's going to be weird with me.
If they're over being weird with me and they've just accepted me.
Or if it's still like, okay, we got to deal with the Sebon thing again.
I don't know look dan guerrero cracked the code on will look at will writes uh who cares about uh alexis land uh dan guerrero goes will tell us what you do care about
hey will did you get my text this morning at 4.30 in the morning?
Dude.
There are three hours ahead, so they never do.
It's only when we bombard them at midnight.
That's when they get it late in the night.
We get it early in the morning.
So Suta had a meeting yesterday with the team. I wasn't there, but it sounds like the behind the scenes
is very close to uh scheduled release date all we have to we're gonna run all the episodes by dave first
and then we're trying to figure out a way to negotiate of getting it behind a paywall for
like a month so basically each episode would go behind a paywall for one month and then be free
after that in order to raise money to do more behind the
scenes and to
pay for private jet flights.
Shit like that.
We need a lot of questions for that.
And then
as soon as we get all that figured out,
the behind the scenes will be,
I'll tell you this, it's going to be 14 episodes.
Probably 30 minutes to an hour each.
Yep.
That's a safe bet.
You guys are going to like it.
And if you don't shut the fuck up.
Go by.
