Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Wadcast podcast. I'm your host, Eddie Ift, each and

every week. I bring you a brand new episode. I say that every week. And then occasionally

this race, have the best time of your life and also participate in it because it's a great

cause. As far as the CrossFit games are over, I think we just saw our next, our next dynasty.

I guess that's what Maderas is going to be hard to beat, really, really hard to beat. Let

it be known, Patrick Valner came in second, who I chose. Armin Amirion chose Fikowski,

who I thought had no chance. I ate my words. However, Valner beat Fikowski, hence I beat

Armin, which means I know more about CrossFit than Armin. Get it, Armin? Huh? Who knows
