0:00.0 | Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Wadcast podcast. I'm your host Eddie ifte. Here we are. It's the week of the open. I am not participating. Why? Because I don't need to spend money to find out where I rank against other people. |
0:22.0 | I figure that is just basically a donation to CrossFit. And do I like CrossFit? Yeah. Do they do something for me? I don't know. I don't know what they do. I like my CrossFit gym that I go to. I like my instructor, my coaches, I like. |
0:40.0 | But do I feel that they need an extra $20 to administer the website? Sure. If I was competitive, sure. If I had a chance of going somewhere for something, sure. Do I? No. So is it worth it for me to give them $20? No. Sorry. You can come at me for that. I'll stand by that, have been doing that for. And I also, I don't do it because I would get competitive and then I would probably get hurt. |
1:08.0 | So I don't. I don't compete. I looked at the first workout. Looks brutal. Don't want to do it. Yeah. Be fun hitting that time cap. That's what would happen to me. |
1:24.0 | Anyway, if you're a first time listener of the show, we talk CrossFit, we talk health, we talk fitness. This week, we do talk CrossFit a lot because my guest is Snorri. I said it wrong. Snorri, Snorri, Snorri Baron. I can't roll my arms. But if you're from Iceland, you can do it. He is a manager of some of the top CrossFit athletes in the business. |
1:52.0 | I mean, Sarah Sigmund's daughter, Ricky Gerard, he calls it Gerard, I say Gerard, I would get that I'm wrong. Who else? He's got Roman, the Russian. He's got BKG. He's got everybody. I mean, looks like the podium this year could be Snorri's. |
2:12.0 | You know, like, look, we're never going to ever count on Justin Madero and Tia Claire to me from winning. I mean, if he asked me, they've got it one right now. But when we're talking second, third, numbers like that. |
2:27.0 | I think Snorri, Snorri Baron's roster is looking very, very good. He was a really awesome guy to talk to, really understands the business and what it's like to manage and brand and athlete. |
2:41.0 | And he's just a fun guy, really interesting, intense dude. And I want to thank everybody that listens to the show. I want to thank you. Just if you listen, thank you. |
2:52.0 | If you participate by joining our Patreon and donating, you're incredible because this show, look, we don't get a lot of ads. |
3:01.0 | We don't, I don't make a fortune from the show. It's kind of a labor of love. And I keep doing it. Why? Because I meet really interesting people. I have you guys come out to my shows when I'm touring. |
3:15.0 | And I really like talking this stuff and I like picking people's brains and finding out information and relaying it to people out there like you. |
3:23.0 | And I hope you've learned a lot from the show. I hope you've been entertained by the show. |
3:28.0 | How long I do the show? Whoever knows. We're over 500 episodes. You get an episode every week. If you donate $5, you get a chance to win a myopucks and a leopard claw. Check them out on rogue fitness.com. |
3:39.0 | That's the myopucks and the leopard paw. You get them both. That's about $450 worth of stuff that you get if you win the drawing. And guess what? |
3:49.0 | You got a really good chance. You're going to win like Dennis Bedford. Congratulations, Dennis. Now we are backed up. I owe Matt Garcia. I believe Matthew Hussie, John Ware, Steve Rigby. I'm looking at a number of people. If you haven't heard your name and you're like, wait, are you still owe me? |
4:06.0 | We are we will be sending them off. If you haven't, you know, send me a message letting me know that let me know that you are that you didn't receive yours and we'll check the records and everything. We'll get them out to you. |
4:34.0 | We're a little backed up over there, but they're going to be coming straight from the manufacturer now instead of through Troy, who is our man there. |
4:44.0 | So that is just going to take a little bit. You're just going to have to forgive us a little bit, a little bit late, but you will get them. |
4:52.0 | You know, we've given out like 400 of these things. So other things that are going on. I'm touring. I got my tour schedule right here. |
5:01.0 | Right now about to leave my house. This is how much I make sure I get on tour and go. My flight was canceled to Boston because there's a giant snowstorm coming in, but I went fuck it. They closed the airport. Boston can't get in tomorrow morning. |
5:16.0 | So I'm flying to New York, getting in an SUV and I'm driving to Boston. Yeah, I'm going to monster truck it the whole way there. So pray for me. |
