00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,360
Welcome to Sidious Mag, live 
from the 2025 World 

2
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:06,880
Championships. 
Chris Chavez here with Eric 

3
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:10,960
Jenkins and Mitch Dyer, and we 
are ready to unpack all the 

4
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:15,600
action that just took place on 
day five of the World 

5
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:19,560
Championships. 
Shout out to our presenting 

6
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:25,040
sponsor, A6 for supporting all 
of our coverage of these World 

7
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:27,280
Championships. 
They're going above and beyond 

8
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:32,439
to have us field a full team to 
be able to provide this wall to 

9
00:00:32,439 --> 00:00:35,760
wall action. 
You know, we're at every single 

10
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,600
session. 
We are there from start to 

11
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:42,840
finish where our social team is 
in the stands getting kicked out

12
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,080
up until the last second because
they've got their laptops out 

13
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:46,080
just sitting out there. 
But. 

14
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,800
Did they get tossed? 
It's it's like sort of like you,

15
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,880
you have to go. 
And they're like, yeah, it's 

16
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,040
finally time. 
It's been an hour after the last

17
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:58,680
race has ended, but ASICS are 
supporters and, you know, 

18
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:02,280
getting our full team out here. 
Johnny Zhang got a massage. 

19
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,280
I booked a massage for tomorrow 
at the ASICS house. 

20
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:12,640
So taking care of our bodies, we
just all got fresh new pairs of 

21
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,400
the Mega Blast. 
Eric, have you got any chance to

22
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,040
run in these? 
You've been running in the Super

23
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,280
Blast, but these are the Mega 
Blast. 

24
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,280
Look at these things. 
I guess I've been a bit. 

25
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,320
OK, so I've been running in 
something Blast. 

26
00:01:25,320 --> 00:01:28,360
Yeah, Tuber blast. 
And these are the mega, mega, of

27
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:29,440
course. 
Well, of course. 

28
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,120
Well, we got a group. 
Run in a day 2 days from now, 

29
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:32,920
yeah. 
Two days. 

30
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:34,920
Yeah, I've been tapering for the
group run. 

31
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:41,720
These look nice. 
The 1500 meter world champion 

32
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:46,080
trains in these things because 
we'll get to who ended up being 

33
00:01:46,320 --> 00:01:48,800
the gold medalist. 
Now you won't be at the, you'll 

34
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,480
be there. 
The mediate 100 or the group 

35
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,400
run. 
The group run, yeah, no, I'm 

36
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,800
like Chris, let's go one event 
at a time. 

37
00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:01,080
I'm not yet talking about the 
Mediate 100, but yes, as 

38
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:04,760
everybody knows, you've got a 
bum knee and it's on the it's. 

39
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,199
You're healing on the mend. 
That's why you've got a massage.

40
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:09,800
Yeah, I didn't know that. 
A. 

41
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,960
Massage is going to heal me. 
I used to know massage was an 

42
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,080
option. 
No, if you go to Asic's house 

43
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:21,840
and like you're on the list, 
which we are, we you can book a 

44
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,080
massage. 
Well, they, they ask you are, 

45
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,800
are you running? 
And I like, I take that to mean 

46
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:29,520
as in like competing at the 
meet. 

47
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,400
I used to say yes. 
And we are running, but we also 

48
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,440
were given the green light that 
it's like, yeah, you guys are 

49
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,120
working hard and deserve some 
massages. 

50
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,480
So you said so they asked are 
you running? 

51
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,600
You said yes. 
Yeah, what they think about the 

52
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,600
knee brace. 
Yeah. 

53
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:49,760
So yeah, I said, I said yes, 
technically I'm entered in the 

54
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,200
media 800, but I will not be 
running. 

55
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,240
Yeah. 
They don't know yet that your 

56
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,760
DNS in the media 800. 
What is that? 

57
00:02:58,040 --> 00:02:59,920
Tomorrow morning. 
Tomorrow morning. 

58
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,800
Christ. 
We'll unpack that at the very 

59
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,640
end. 
Yeah, let's let's say that for 

60
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:07,560
the end. 
Yeah. 

61
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:14,640
All right, so let us dive right 
into the men's 1500, which has 

62
00:03:14,640 --> 00:03:19,160
been the event that we've been 
looking forward to for a very, 

63
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,920
very long time. 
I woke up this morning, first 

64
00:03:22,920 --> 00:03:28,040
thing I did was I fired off a 
tweet saying happy Men's 1500 

65
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:29,800
meter final day to all who 
celebrate. 

66
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,960
And in the stands, we're 
chatting, we're like. 

67
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,840
Super divisive tweet. 
I I, I did get one person who 

68
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,720
was like, I only celebrate the 
women's. 

69
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:45,280
Yeah, totally. 
But anyway, it's been on our 

70
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,200
mind the whole entire time, all 
throughout the afternoon at 

71
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,320
lunch, asking who's your top 
three? 

72
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,360
I checked back in when we're in 
the stands. 

73
00:03:52,880 --> 00:04:00,120
And then when it's time for the 
race to finally go off it, you 

74
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:03,320
know, I guess like we were, if 
we were not expecting like a 327

75
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,120
race, like last year, if 
anything over the past couple 

76
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,440
days has told us this is going 
to be a tactical affair. 

77
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:12,560
And it sure was. 
Niels Laros goes to the front. 

78
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,920
Nothing extravagant in terms of 
just like the pace to really 

79
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:21,040
burn the wheels out of anybody. 
Everyone was in contention 

80
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:26,200
except for Josh Kerr, who with 
600 meters to go suffers A calf 

81
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:33,200
strain or pull something. 
And Mack Fleet, who is sitting 

82
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:34,960
in the stands with us, knew 
immediately. 

83
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:41,960
He has suffered many a calf 
holes and strains in the last 

84
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:46,920
couple years. 
So super unfortunate in that 

85
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:51,080
sense because he's one of the 
favorites for this race. 

86
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,720
Then Laros up in the front is 
commanding things. 

87
00:04:55,080 --> 00:05:01,240
Timothy Cheriot right on his 
heels, which Eric very astutely 

88
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:05,160
pointed out was like, well, 
there might be some team tactics

89
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:06,800
happening here. 
They're training partners. 

90
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:11,760
So yes. 
But again, like the pace is not 

91
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,720
fast enough to eliminate 
everybody. 

92
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:17,080
And so at the bell that you just
have everyone is still except 

93
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,480
for Josh Kerr is still in 
contention. 

94
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,440
Jake Whiteman in great position 
all throughout. 

95
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:27,880
And he ends up being the one to 
really make the move. 

96
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:32,200
And I'm, I'm, I'm in the stands 
saying this is 2022 all over 

97
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:33,920
again. 
Because it, it, the move came a 

98
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,000
little bit earlier than when he 
pulled it on on Jakob. 

99
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:43,080
But it started to feel like that
might have been a little bit too

100
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,280
early, especially when you have,
you know, guys who are closing 

101
00:05:46,280 --> 00:05:49,720
in 12.5 seconds for the final 
100 meters. 

102
00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:55,720
So the final hundred ends up 
being where the medals are 

103
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,360
decided. 
And So what ends up happening in

104
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:02,800
that final stretch is a shock to
all of us. 

105
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:09,280
Isaac Nader of Portugal ends up 
winning, gets Jake Whiteman 

106
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:13,120
with, what, 25 meters left in 
the in the race. 

107
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:14,200
Yeah. 
Right on the line. 

108
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:22,440
So Jake ends up finishing 
second, Reynolds Chariot third, 

109
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,440
Reynolds chariot again, one of 
those guys who has insane 

110
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:29,080
closing speed. 
Timothy Chariot 4th, Niels Laros

111
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,680
5th. 
And then from there, you know, 

112
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:40,880
it's it was just a crapshoot, 
but Isaac Nader was +6000 to to 

113
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:45,240
win this race. 
Not too many people saw this one

114
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,160
coming. 
Certainly they they get bigger. 

115
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:54,160
Than that in the whole entire 
time, like I'm saying, we're all

116
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,760
in in the stands in shock after 
the race. 

117
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,000
Nader is a guy that's always 
making these finals. 

118
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:08,640
He's always in the mix as far as
being there, but he's never he's

119
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:12,320
never the guy it. 
The only time the season was 

120
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,880
Oslo Diamond League where he won
the dream mile. 

121
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,440
And then when I brought this up 
to Mac in our in our preview 

122
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,880
episode, I was we were going 
over just sort of the case for 

123
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,960
and the case against a lot of 
these top contenders. 

124
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,240
I brought up Isaac Nader and he 
it was very dismissive. 

125
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,480
But like, the only reason why I 
brought him up is because I was 

126
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:32,360
like, yeah, but that dream mile 
earlier on in the season, but it

127
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:36,640
frankly like it so many people 
would have had the same feelings

128
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,640
as as Mac. 
Yeah, I don't have a a camera on

129
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,120
me right here. 
But yeah, no, it was just I I 

130
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,600
think it was the the time that 
he had run And also just like 

131
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:49,760
the lack of showing up in in the
contention sort of range over 

132
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,160
the last few years. 
But like to to Eric's point, he 

133
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,320
has been making finals and I 
think in a situation like this, 

134
00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:01,560
like the the conditions that are
here, it brings everyone into 

135
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,120
play. 
It's slow. 

136
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,760
We're not running 327 here. 
It's just it's physically just 

137
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,680
not possible. 
So there's some weird stuff 

138
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,400
happening here. 
It there's some weird like 

139
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,920
anatomical, biological, like the
it's it's, it's different here. 

140
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,560
Tracks cursed, obviously. 
But like it, it brings people 

141
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,160
like him into play and allowed 
him to show up and guess. 

142
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:28,640
And you know what it it is, it's
the same for everybody here, 

143
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,559
like it is anywhere else. 
And, and he showed up today and 

144
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,480
ran the race that was late. 
He's world champion. 

145
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:39,039
Yeah, and I mean, he, he had to,
he had to go pretty wide and, 

146
00:08:39,039 --> 00:08:42,159
and reach pretty deep in the bag
to get there too, because while 

147
00:08:42,159 --> 00:08:44,720
everyone was hugging the rail 
and Whiteman had the benefit of 

148
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,480
running the shortest distance 
like you'd done, he just 

149
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,440
tactically ran it. 
So his whole rounds in the 

150
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:54,120
final, he he just looked like 
the smartest guy in the field in

151
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,320
terms of the way that he picked 
things apart and put himself in 

152
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:57,880
the right spots. 
And I thought it was enough. 

153
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,520
I actually thought that he'd 
made a smart move up the back 

154
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,080
straight to try and clear some 
space from the carnage that was 

155
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,040
going to ensue behind, but you 
have to hand it to a guy that 

156
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,280
throws out to lane 3 or 4 just 
to get a clean shot in the home 

157
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,040
straight. 
And yeah, on the line, like 

158
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,760
point O2, I think from memory 
was the difference between gold 

159
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:16,840
and silver. 
Like literally nailed him, 

160
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,200
pinged him on the line. 
And it's a great reward for 

161
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,400
effort because it we're seeing 
it honestly a fair bit of these 

162
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,480
championships, people that have 
been thereabouts, but not quite 

163
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,560
like always a bridesmaid, never 
the bride and now having their 

164
00:09:30,560 --> 00:09:35,000
day and and hats off to him 
because it's been a phenomenal, 

165
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,680
phenomenal run from him. 
It's why I like this event is so

166
00:09:38,680 --> 00:09:40,400
fun, right? 
Because you're looking at this 

167
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:44,800
podium right now and you would 
never like, I would have, I 

168
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:50,200
would have bet my life that Kerr
or Laros would be on that podium

169
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:55,120
somewhere. 
And to see Nader, First off, 

170
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:59,680
Whiteman has looked great this 
this whole championship series. 

171
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,240
And especially for a guy that 
didn't he, he just he didn't win

172
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,400
the British champs. 
He's had an up and down season, 

173
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:10,800
been injured for a lot of it. 
And but it it's a guy that knows

174
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,400
championship racing. 
And so this is that experience 

175
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,000
pays off. 
But it's like this, this event 

176
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:21,240
is so hit or miss in a lot of 
with a lot of these type of 

177
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:25,720
things. 
And to see Josh Kerr, you just 

178
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,520
don't really see a guy get 
injured like that. 

179
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:32,760
Yeah, mid race. 
I thought he must have been 

180
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:36,640
stepped on or who would come off
or something just from the fire 

181
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,440
out in the crowd, I thought. 
I thought that's what had 

182
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:39,480
happened. 
That was, I think, everyone's 

183
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,640
first impression. 
But the replay was just, it was 

184
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:43,520
just him. 
Yeah. 

185
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:47,840
Oh yeah, no, I mean strain his 
what? 

186
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:54,160
Strain his calf? 
Yeah, but I mean, usually a calf

187
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,080
strain doesn't creep up on you 
like that. 

188
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,360
It must have been laboring on 
tightness for a while. 

189
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:04,600
But man, what a race. 
Yeah, this isn't. 

190
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,240
What a race. 
This is a good one. 

191
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,000
Just a quick Fact Check that 
came to us from from the YouTube

192
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,160
chat. 
And I guess like it, Like Eric, 

193
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,760
I'm not gonna check you every 
single time, but when you said 

194
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,920
that Isaac Nader has made so 
many finals, actually, this is 

195
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,880
the first global championship 
final. 

196
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:22,080
Day like I'm not gonna take you 
every time but like you are so 

197
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,760
wrong on this front one is but. 
I can see where your confusion 

198
00:11:26,680 --> 00:11:29,160
comes from me where it's it's 
he's made so many of these like 

199
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,880
European Team Championship, 
European Junior Championships, 

200
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,560
European the. 
How many majors has he been to? 

201
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:36,560
What number? 
World champ? 

202
00:11:36,560 --> 00:11:38,040
What number? 
I'm looking at that right now. 

203
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:43,240
So you 2022 World Championships 
1500 just in the heats 2023 

204
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,480
World Championships makes the 
no. 

205
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,120
I guess you're right. 
He makes the final and he 

206
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,280
finishes 12. 
So that was 1 go. 

207
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,320
Big in 10, really big for me 
world. 

208
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,680
Championships finish the second,
so this is the Second World. 

209
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:58,160
In an Olympic final, maybe. 
No Olympics, he made it just to 

210
00:11:58,160 --> 00:11:59,520
the semis and was bouncing 
point. 

211
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,080
He's been around a lot. 
Yeah, he has. 

212
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:03,840
Been around a lot. 
Yeah, indoor. 

213
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,760
Indoor. 
He has made finals 2022, 

214
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,440
2024-2025. 
South, he's been OK so. 

215
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,120
So Eric, yeah, Eric's not wrong.
Yeah. 

216
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:13,720
And. 
Then. 

217
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:15,160
Chris what? 
What? 

218
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,840
What you'll get? 
Yeah, and and. 

219
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,800
Fired. 
You're. 

220
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:21,320
Still good you no, you're. 
Good. 

221
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:22,600
I know, I know, I know. 
What? 

222
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:27,760
What is Dean? 
It's like 6 different guys have 

223
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,520
won over the last six years. 
That's an incredible statistic. 

224
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,720
So going into this, like, yeah, 
we're like, Oh yeah, someone's 

225
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,840
going to win again. 
But like, here we are again, 

226
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:41,480
it's, it's a new guy. 
It's just it, it's impossible to

227
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,880
just win this the the global 
championship twice, right on the

228
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,800
men's. 15 and what are and what 
are three world champs we've had

229
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,960
in the men's 1500 you you date 
back to again that wait Jake 

230
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:53,440
Whiteman kick over the top of 
the ark. 

231
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,840
He was like, wow, I could I 
could not have seen that happen.

232
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,120
And then the smack talk between 
Kerr and Ingebritsen, it kind of

233
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,840
blossoms from this is like, Oh 
my God, he's the world champion.

234
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,920
And then Nader now is the world 
champion. 

235
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:06,920
And I don't know, look, I don't 
know whether this guy talks a 

236
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:08,400
lot of smack. 
I can't imagine that there's 

237
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:09,760
going to be a lot of that coming
out of her. 

238
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:13,600
But to your point, Mack, it's 
like good luck ever predicting a

239
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,000
final really from here on out. 
The history would suggest and 

240
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,640
stack up now in recency that 
it's near impossible, But it it 

241
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,440
was just AI found it to be a 
kind of a strange rate. 

242
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:26,400
I I don't think I predicted 
anything outside of the time 

243
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:28,600
correctly. 
I thought it would be, and maybe

244
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,560
because he had been labouring 
over the car, if I thought it'd 

245
00:13:30,560 --> 00:13:34,000
be Kerr that got to the front 
and ran at the tempo that Laros 

246
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,280
did, and Laros would be maybe a 
little bit further back than 

247
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:41,440
leading a Global Championship 
final, it just surprised me to 

248
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:45,080
see him up there immediately. 
And then, yeah, Timmy with the 

249
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,800
squeeze and came around and 
started to push the tempo and 

250
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:51,560
you could see it from theirs. 
But it was I was surprised at 

251
00:13:51,560 --> 00:13:53,560
the way that some of these guys 
ran tactically. 

252
00:13:53,680 --> 00:13:55,320
OK. 
Well, I was thinking about like 

253
00:13:55,320 --> 00:14:00,880
Laura says, had this world class
kick for every single race he's 

254
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,600
been in, no matter the pace. 
The guy can close at an insane 

255
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,400
pit, insane speed. 
And today he just didn't have 

256
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,720
it. 
And you're seeing that that 

257
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,840
conditions are hot. 
It's tough to have that pop at 

258
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,160
at this camp, he says for some 
reason. 

259
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:21,960
But everybody and myself 
included, I'm like Lauro's is 

260
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,040
going to end up on that podium 
somehow. 

261
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:29,600
And to see him, see him off of 
it obviously occur with the 

262
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:31,920
injury, it's it's a bit of a 
different situation. 

263
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:39,160
But to see neither of those guys
on the podium and super happy 

264
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,160
for Jake. 
Jake's a, yes, super great guy 

265
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:48,680
and he's been love to see him 
back on the top after like being

266
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:53,080
injured and having to sit out 
for championships and not being 

267
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,080
able to compete to to have him 
come back and he barely lost it 

268
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:58,200
right? 
Like Nader had to really pull 

269
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,680
something special out of them 
and just to barely get him at 

270
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,240
the line. 
So I'm very happy for Jake. 

271
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,360
But man, it's it's This is why 
this event is one of the most 

272
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,080
fun of the the entire meet. 
We haven't even gotten a chance 

273
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:11,840
to rewatch it. 
Like we bolted out of the 

274
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,840
stadium, got on the trains and 
then came right here to to yap 

275
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:16,720
about it. 
Good question. 

276
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:20,920
Dropped in in the YouTube chat 
that I'm curious to hear what 

277
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:25,080
what you would think about it. 
The athletes have seen how all 

278
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:26,880
the other mid distance races 
have been going. 

279
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,400
Why didn't they try a different 
strategy? 

280
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:32,440
We're we're in the sense of like
what? 

281
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:34,680
Like different strategy like 
that you should have. 

282
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:36,680
That should have gone hard from 
the start. 

283
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,080
Or well. 
I guess the only other different

284
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:41,600
strategy off the top of my head 
would have been the Timmy C move

285
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,160
which we suggested last night, 
which has been like he should 

286
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,280
have just pulled it from from 
the beginning, but it just. 

287
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:51,560
No, no, I, I think the only 
like, I think the real strategy 

288
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,680
with these middle distance races
and I when I say middle distance

289
00:15:54,680 --> 00:16:00,440
races, I mean primarily just the
15 is a a squeeze like Kippy, a 

290
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:06,160
gun. 
Yeah, like it it is harder in my

291
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:11,800
opinion to when to have A to 
race against someone like faith 

292
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,480
or like just to be in the race 
where they're squeezing as 

293
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,400
opposed to fast from the start. 
When it's fast from the start 

294
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:22,160
and you've seen it with lots of 
races in it recently, is that 

295
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,360
when it's fast and if you get 
out hard, you can settle a bit 

296
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,920
and then gather yourself. 
But when you're when you have 

297
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:34,800
somebody who's just gradually 
picking it up very subtly lap by

298
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,720
lap or, you know, half lap by 
half lap, it's just it's harder.

299
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,760
I think that would have been the
move. 

300
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,240
But The thing is, it's just so 
tough to do, right? 

301
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:48,280
Like it's so tough. 
You can say that that that is 

302
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:53,280
your best option, but you get to
the line, the gun goes off and 

303
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,560
then plants go out the window, 
right? 

304
00:16:55,560 --> 00:17:00,640
It's like, OK, I, it's, it takes
a really savvy and confident 

305
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:06,440
person to operate in that type 
of situation and to do that. 

306
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:11,560
So it's, it's, it is tough to 
have a game plan and just to 

307
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:13,319
nail it. 
Yeah. 

308
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:17,000
So it's it's it's it's hard. 
I, I think if anyone would have 

309
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,480
done it today, it would have 
been Josh, but I, I, I think. 

310
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,960
Someone's at our door, just 
close it. 

311
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:30,800
Yeah, sorry. 
There's there, there might be 

312
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:35,080
someone outside of our door. 
I, I, I think if anyone would 

313
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:36,360
have done it, it would have been
Josh. 

314
00:17:36,360 --> 00:17:40,800
But I think watching him race, 
I, I, I, I called out to these 

315
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:46,880
guys right when they broke, I 
was like, oh, Josh's Josh went 

316
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:48,360
into the rail in the back of the
race. 

317
00:17:48,360 --> 00:17:50,160
Like, that's something that I 
don't think that we've seen him 

318
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,720
done in like. 
Five years long time. 

319
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,720
Yeah, he usually goes to the 
front and is in the top four and

320
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,880
races from the top 4. 
So I I would venture to say that

321
00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:05,000
something happened between the 
semi final and today for for his

322
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:09,400
calf to kind of go. 
And what the question was what, 

323
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,480
like, why didn't they do 
something differently? 

324
00:18:12,120 --> 00:18:14,240
Is like you got to look at the 
you got to look at the field, 

325
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,080
like who in here is a front 
runner? 

326
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:21,440
And the only answer there is 
like a really healthy, fit Josh 

327
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,000
who is was clearly hurt. 
Or Timmy C. 

328
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:28,480
Or Timmy C from four years ago. 
Yeah, and and Tim, Tim's running

329
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:33,160
better than he has recently than
he had over the last compared to

330
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:36,080
the last three years. 
The last, the, the, the last 

331
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:41,920
time he he front ran in in one 
world champs in 20/19/19. 

332
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,920
That's six years ago, yeah. 
Like. 

333
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,640
He's he just doesn't like. 
Well, on top of that, he trains 

334
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,200
with Neil Zaros and so he knows 
that like even within his 

335
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,040
training group, he's not gonna 
just tee it up for his training 

336
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,720
partner to also win gold. 
So he's got to look out for 

337
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,280
himself in that sense and and 
not make his own bed there. 

338
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:00,600
And and this and it's just, it's
different here. 

339
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:02,680
Like the conditions here are are
crazy. 

340
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:04,640
They're hard. 
They're really, really hard. 

341
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,120
And it's muggy. 
Like we you can see the humidity

342
00:19:08,120 --> 00:19:09,720
we were talking about. 
You can literally see the 

343
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,000
humidity across the stadium. 
Yeah, Like it, it's like you 

344
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,480
have cataracts in there. 
Like the air is thick. 

345
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:19,000
It's hot soup. 
And so like, no, no one's 

346
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,240
running 327. 
If you think that like, oh, why 

347
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,440
didn't someone just go out there
and run some 330? 

348
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:25,920
Like it's just not possible. 
We were watching the guys 

349
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,680
struggle to run 340 in the in 
the prelims. 

350
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,240
Yeah. 
And so like we watched the semi 

351
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,520
finals and we were like, Oh 
yeah, we like these guys were 

352
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:35,760
hurting around 3:35. 
It's probably going to be around

353
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:37,000
there. 
They ran 334. 

354
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,320
Yeah, you, you're a bit of a 
sacrificial lamb. 

355
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,720
I think if you were to try and 
go hard from the start because 

356
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:44,040
your body just wouldn't handle 
it. 

357
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,000
And every athlete that I've 
spoken to, at least in the mix 

358
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,040
zone has had the same thing to 
say. 

359
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,120
It's like they can't quite 
quantify what it is about the 

360
00:19:51,120 --> 00:19:54,920
conditions or the track that is 
making it feel slow. 

361
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,000
But it feels hard. 
I've heard some of them have 

362
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:58,560
said it feels like they're 
running with concrete in their 

363
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,120
pockets. 
They just, they just cannot get 

364
00:20:01,120 --> 00:20:03,360
their legs to tick over the way 
that they used to. 

365
00:20:03,360 --> 00:20:06,280
So. 
And, and psychologically, when 

366
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,720
you're trying to call on your 
body to do something you know it

367
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,320
can do and it won't, even that 
can be tiring. 

368
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:13,120
Like it's the little things. 
It might not even be the 

369
00:20:13,120 --> 00:20:16,280
physical tiredness, it's the 
mental game of of getting tired 

370
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,240
with that. 
Think of these guys like what 

371
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:22,320
splits they've been training 
for, for the last three years. 

372
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:26,120
Yeah, right. 
Which is all like 329-320-8327 

373
00:20:26,120 --> 00:20:27,880
stuff. 
And they're, and, and all of 

374
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:29,880
these guys have been training 
over the last 12 months looking 

375
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,480
at that, that Olympic final 
going like, OK, in order to get 

376
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,920
a medal, I have to run 327. 
They've been training to run 327

377
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:41,040
or 326 all year long. 
And then they get here and 

378
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:44,280
they're trying to, to your 
point, they're trying to reason 

379
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:48,080
with like, oh, I'm going to go 
out in like 59. 

380
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,360
Yeah. 
And it might not be easy. 

381
00:20:50,360 --> 00:20:52,760
Yeah. 
And these guys haven't run a 59 

382
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:58,600
in a like a aerobic like 6432 
Rep in the last five years. 

383
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,120
Yeah, of like a meaningful Rep 
like that. 

384
00:21:01,120 --> 00:21:05,280
I'm sure also that there was 
going into this meet, they had 

385
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:11,240
ideas and plans about what a, 
you know, what a perfect final 

386
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,680
would look like game plan wise. 
And then you get out in this 

387
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:19,240
opening round and you realize 
what the how they feel out there

388
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,520
and how the conditions have 
changed. 

389
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:25,640
And then that will for sure 
dictate how the next race goes. 

390
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:27,880
And then if they're lucky 
enough, how the final will go. 

391
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:34,240
So they line up today and 
they're like, man, these last 

392
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,720
two races, I haven't felt like 
it's been very tough. 

393
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:42,760
And so, yeah, the the squeeze in
an ideal day when you're feeling

394
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:47,080
fantastic, when the pop is there
is how I might want to do this. 

395
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:51,680
But I mean, if I feel anything 
like I felt on these opening 

396
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,200
rounds, the squeeze, is it going
to be there? 

397
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:58,120
So now it's like I just have to 
be tactically in the right place

398
00:21:58,120 --> 00:22:02,840
at the right time and just be 
hopefully I'm I'm fighting for 

399
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:06,680
the medal at at when this last 
100 comes about. 

400
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,960
Yeah, And I felt like I thought 
that's maybe what Timmy was 

401
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,400
doing when he did obviously pick
up the tempo. 

402
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,000
I thought maybe he'd just go 
like, alright, I'm gonna RIP the

403
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,240
band that. 
Yeah. 

404
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,080
And it's like, jump on board, 
boys, let's see who can roll. 

405
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:23,120
But clearly to everyone's point,
it's that's just not, it's not 

406
00:22:23,120 --> 00:22:25,760
possible like in these 
conditions, it just is not 

407
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,640
something that's possible. 
So even that move would have 

408
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,000
fried a lot of legs in that in 
that period. 

409
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:35,400
My last bit, just on my personal
bit, same as Eric, shout out to 

410
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,280
to Jake, like Dana ran an 
amazing race. 

411
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:42,080
I hey, little bit of bias don't 
have any personal connection to 

412
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:46,320
him, but Jake I do. 
We like early in his career and 

413
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,720
late in mine. 
We shared, you know, same agent 

414
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:50,320
and we're on the same tour 
together. 

415
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,640
Love that dude and I'm just so 
happy to see him back in the 

416
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,920
medals. 100%. 
Especially after he, the dude is

417
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:01,480
injury prone like none other. 
And he had a coaching change 

418
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:02,680
this year, which was definitely 
tough. 

419
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,280
Like, you're choosing to and 
they're all good. 

420
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,280
Like choosing to leave your dad,
who's been coaching here 

421
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,800
forever, who's calling in the 
stadium. 

422
00:23:10,120 --> 00:23:12,920
Yeah, for you and for both of 
you to decide, like, hey, we got

423
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:16,720
to do something different. 
Like this isn't working and and 

424
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,520
you're you're choosing to leave 
your coach, who is also your 

425
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:24,480
father that you won a world 
championship gold with because 

426
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,040
you just you, you figure it's 
just not working at this point. 

427
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:31,800
And then to to come out on the 
other end after dropping out of 

428
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,880
a few races because of injury or
sickness, like the the British 

429
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,120
champs. 
And he has to get selected onto 

430
00:23:37,120 --> 00:23:40,200
the team on their their subject,
like, you know, top 2GO. 

431
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:44,520
And then plus there's a 
subjective spot like it's it's 

432
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,640
it wasn't like a straightforward
path for him to make the final. 

433
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:51,200
And also like with his history 
over the last three years, not a

434
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,920
guarantee for him to be healthy 
in the final and to watch him 

435
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:58,720
take the lead like he did in 
2019 with 200 to go and to come 

436
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,560
out with a medal. 
Cool as hell. 

437
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,760
Love that dude. 
Yeah, I mean, it's it's a crazy 

438
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:08,480
sort of like he he went from 
barely making it onto the team 

439
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,000
to now just ending up as a as a 
silver medalist. 

440
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,480
It's so such a such a great 
story overall and and all the 

441
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:18,160
hiccups along the way just 
within this season itself. 

442
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,560
I mean, when we we saw him at 
the pre classic, like he knew 

443
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,600
that he was on the edge of 
something special. 

444
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:29,320
It just like hadn't lined up. 
And so today it was right there.

445
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,400
Yeah. 
It's weird because we, we talked

446
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,720
to him over the last couple 
years, Chris and, and he almost 

447
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,760
felt like everyone was like 
leaving him behind. 

448
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,840
Yeah, yeah, because they're 
running faster than his his PBS.

449
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,440
And he's like, well, I won here 
a couple years ago and like, no 

450
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,400
one talks about me anymore. 
It's like it's just Jacob. 

451
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,600
It's just Cole. 
It's just Josh. 

452
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:49,920
He's like. 
It's a sport. 

453
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,360
Yeah, it it's a sport and it was
crazy. 

454
00:24:52,360 --> 00:24:54,240
It's very racist. 
Guess, guess. 

455
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,640
What? 
I mean, he wasn't even in it. 

456
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,520
Yeah, it's, it's, it's not like,
oh, he was hurt. 

457
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,560
Yeah, he couldn't be in it. 
He was he couldn't have been in 

458
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:03,880
it. 
Like he wasn't in it. 

459
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:08,160
Yeah. 
I mean, it's it's you wouldn't 

460
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:12,160
be talking about this final and 
being like, oh man, like I, you 

461
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:13,440
know who would have done well in
that? 

462
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:14,480
Member. 
Member. 

463
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:16,320
Member, J. 
Member J, but. 

464
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,040
Yeah, well, that's the other 
thing in our YouTube chat right 

465
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:19,520
now is like, Cole Hawker would 
have won this. 

466
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,400
Yes, exactly. 
But we're not talking about it, 

467
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:23,360
right? 
And next. 

468
00:25:23,360 --> 00:25:25,840
And whenever these these 
championship races come up and 

469
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,000
they're like, man, I feel like 
they forgot about me. 

470
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,280
You know, a couple years ago I 
said, yeah, because you weren't 

471
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:31,200
in the final. 
Yeah. 

472
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,160
But what's crazy, Eric, is like,
sure, as an athlete, and you 

473
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,560
could speak to this better than 
I can, is like, your mind, your 

474
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,120
mind as an athlete doesn't work 
that way. 

475
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,720
Us as fans, it's like, Oh yeah, 
who's running? 

476
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:45,200
Well, right. 
But as an like, put yourself in 

477
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,560
Jake's shoes. 
Yes, you're hungry. 

478
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:49,480
You're not thinking like, oh, I 
just haven't like. 

479
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,280
You're not thinking like I 
should be forgotten. 

480
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:56,720
You're thinking like like 
earmuffs like fuck these guys on

481
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:57,600
one of them. 
We already. 

482
00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,440
We got some complaints about 
your cursing Mac, but. 

483
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:02,840
Recently I haven't even been on 
the microphone. 

484
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:05,960
Don't even me, you didn't. 
I think you did drop an F bomb 

485
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:09,120
before so. 
Well, I said yeah, I like 

486
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:10,480
warning. 
You know what? 

487
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,680
more than I? 
It was like, wait a minute. 

488
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:15,840
It's me. 
I was Oh wait it. 

489
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,080
Makes good of being us. 
Yeah, I would be hot. 

490
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,600
I would be surprised if it was 
Mac and if we haven't got one 

491
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:23,760
because that would be insane. 
I definitely dropped one the 

492
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:25,320
other day. 
In fact, I saw the clip. 

493
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:27,240
I was swearing. 
Yeah, adults here. 

494
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,120
This is how adults. 
Yeah, yeah, and she's Sarah. 

495
00:26:30,120 --> 00:26:31,880
Don't come to Australia anytime 
soon. 

496
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,960
Not right now, yeah, So. 
It's put your big boy pants on. 

497
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,560
OK. 
Speak to Max Point. 

498
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:45,120
Yeah, it does take an incredible
type of person and mindset to 

499
00:26:45,360 --> 00:26:48,320
get to battle back from where 
Jake's been. 

500
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:52,520
And you know, you beat Jacobin 
was Eugene, right? 

501
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:54,840
You beat Jacobin, Eugene, world 
champion. 

502
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,720
And now every ever since then, 
you're you're you've been 

503
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:02,360
riddled with injuries. 
You've had such a hard Rd. back.

504
00:27:02,360 --> 00:27:05,480
You had to. 
And you're not just leaving your

505
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:07,520
coach, right. 
Your coach is your dad. 

506
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:08,800
Think about that. 
Yeah. 

507
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:10,760
Like we've all broken up with a 
coach. 

508
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:15,160
I have never broken up with my 
dad, who It's a tough. 

509
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:16,480
It's a tough thing. 
Yeah. 

510
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,640
And I can't I can't even really 
put myself in that position. 

511
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:24,280
And to come back and he barely 
like he didn't, he didn't, he 

512
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:25,320
didn't really lose. 
He got. 

513
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,400
Yeah. 
He didn't he did not lose this 

514
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,160
race. 
He got he it took a it took a 

515
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:36,680
big effort by Nader to beat him.
And so I'm sure that Jake right 

516
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:42,000
now is like, like, I was so 
close to having to being a 

517
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,120
double world champion in the 15,
which is a position. 

518
00:27:45,120 --> 00:27:49,880
First off, people, people, 
nobody is ever a a 1500 meter 

519
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:51,600
champion. 
There's like, it's so rare. 

520
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:55,880
And then to almost be a double 
champion is, is something truly 

521
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,480
special that nobody, I mean, was
there anybody in? 

522
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:02,440
Maybe it was Tim, maybe Timothy.
He's like, he's like, I feel 

523
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,920
you. 
I feel it. 

524
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,400
He's like, he's like, God, 
you're close and you broke up 

525
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,240
with your dad and blah, blah, 
blah. 

526
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:14,880
But it's like, it's such an 
amazing like Rd. that that Jake 

527
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,120
has been on. 
And so it is super, super 

528
00:28:18,120 --> 00:28:22,880
exciting to see that. 
But yeah, like, like Max said, 

529
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,640
when when you're down and you 
feel like people aren't talking 

530
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,440
about you because, and it's not 
because that everybody's 

531
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:34,040
doubting you, it's just because 
that there's this is an event 

532
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:37,160
that's so talented and there's 
so many amazing athletes. 

533
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,160
And when you're out, it is like 
a recency bias. 

534
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,080
Like what have you done for me 
recently? 

535
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:47,920
But this just shows you the type
of athlete that that Jake is and

536
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:52,600
that to to bounce back and to 
bake it right back up to where 

537
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,600
he was when he was a world 
champion. 

538
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,280
It takes a different kind of 
athlete. 

539
00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:01,600
But I mean, Nader, it's like 
we're talking so much about 

540
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,080
Jake, we're talking so much 
about these other guys. 

541
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:09,400
But like neither does seem to 
come, yeah, out of nowhere to 

542
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:13,880
surprise everybody for for the 
global, the global metal. 

543
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:18,200
In in big moments, like to like,
I, I think like a lot of people 

544
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,520
will probably look at this 
performance like well, in a 

545
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:25,800
similar sense of like is, is 
this 1A fluke Like no, this 

546
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:27,800
honestly, like very similar to 
last year like. 

547
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:29,240
Non fluke at all, but yeah, 
right. 

548
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,040
It doesn't it? 
Doesn't you cannot lock. 

549
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:35,080
Your way does not matter about 
like flukes with you can't say 

550
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:39,360
if you win a gold medal in in 
any of these events. 

551
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,960
There's no fluke, right? 
Like, you've won it and nobody 

552
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,280
can take that away. 
And there there can be people 

553
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:49,400
who can say, who will be 
commenting from the sidelines 

554
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:54,960
and can say, Oh, yeah, like he 
got a bit lucky or he he won 

555
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,440
that over when he wasn't the 
favorite. 

556
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,120
Wasn't there? 
Yeah, exactly. 

557
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:05,360
But it's like, look, I'm there. 
The record book will always have

558
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:09,040
my name there. 
And it's it's never a fluke when

559
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:13,320
you get to this level and when 
you can, it is a huge upset. 

560
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:17,240
And that's sports and that's 
sports exactly right. 

561
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:19,280
Like that's just how the game 
goes. 

562
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:22,160
And that's why we this that's 
why it's exciting. 

563
00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:27,000
If it just was, if it always 
came down to the favorites one 

564
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,280
and you could switch it up, 
right, Because it's like if you 

565
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,600
were to, if every single person 
who even knew the sport were to 

566
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,200
write down like what's your 
what's your podium you're going 

567
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,920
to have. 
It's some sort of combination of

568
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:44,480
Laros and Kerr and maybe a guy 
like White, right, or White or 

569
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:48,840
OX or Timothy Chariot. 
But there would be a very small 

570
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:50,640
percentage that would have Nader
in there. 

571
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:55,480
And that's why this is so 
exciting, because you these 

572
00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:58,480
races aren't one on paper. 
And here we are. 

573
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:03,600
Nader's a world champion and a 
lot of these favorites go home 

574
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:08,560
with no hardware and they're 
going to have to stay hungry and

575
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,760
and and show up again then the 
next time they have the 

576
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:12,760
opportunity. 
I think Hungary's the perfect 

577
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,520
way to describe it because even 
if to the point of where we were

578
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:20,240
checking Eric a second ago, 
Nader's been to so many of these

579
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,320
and maybe he's only in his 
second final, But the point is 

580
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,680
that you see so many young guys 
coming through. 

581
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:29,040
I think Laros is going to be a 
great example of this in time to

582
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,800
come, right? 
This is what he's Second World 

583
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:34,320
champs final. 
He's last year, fifth this year.

584
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,320
Exactly. 
He's going to keep climbing and 

585
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:38,920
I think to the point in Racency,
a lot of the time in the sport, 

586
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:41,680
it's like you want them to be 
good immediately and if they're 

587
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,040
not, people are disappointed. 
It's like, well, this is speaks 

588
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:46,840
to the levels of how difficult 
this isn't. 

589
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,960
And and to go back to Jake, like
Jake got robbed of the 

590
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,760
opportunity to be introduced as 
the world champion through 

591
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:56,120
injuries, like he didn't get 
that beautiful. 

592
00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:58,440
Well, because he was injured, he
was race. 

593
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:01,040
Yeah, he did not race. 
So like Jake, it's his grand 

594
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,760
crescendoed moment. 
Like the the highlight of your 

595
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:05,120
career. 
You're the world champ. 

596
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,240
And you know what? 
A lot of money attached to that 

597
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,120
as well, to be the world champ 
in appearance fees and everybody

598
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:12,320
knowing who you are. 
And this guy's a hustle. 

599
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,920
And he had to watch the whole 
world move on past him, right. 

600
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:19,720
I remember talking to him last 
year randomly on a train and 

601
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,040
they were having a conversation 
between like, what, what are you

602
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:23,280
going to do? 
And he's like, I'm just going to

603
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,280
keep going. 
I'm going to find a way to 

604
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:26,800
pivot. 
And then he leaves his coach. 

605
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:30,440
Now he comes back and such a 
popular guy for that exact 

606
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:31,920
reason that he keeps on 
grinding. 

607
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:33,840
I guarantee you, because we 
don't know him well enough. 

608
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:39,360
I bet Nader has an amazing story
of maybe times of wanting to 

609
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:40,720
give up and wanting to get rid 
of it. 

610
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,920
And if you're a 1500 meter guy 
out there, a kid or someone 

611
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:47,360
who's raced or whatever, this 
has to fill you with like just 

612
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:50,600
an absolute heart full of 
optimism that it could take me 

613
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,080
three tries, four tries to get 
there. 

614
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,200
I, I could have my day. 
And you can only beat who's 

615
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,200
there to the point of Jacob and 
you know, Cole not being there. 

616
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,720
They didn't make it. 
Well, you can't control that. 

617
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,040
You beat who you beat. 
You're the world champ. 

618
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:08,640
Well, the good news is that 
Isaac Nader is a A6 athlete and 

619
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,280
so we're on the phone already 
working to try and get him for 

620
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,240
for an interview. 
We're super close with Jake 

621
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:19,320
Whitman and so will hopefully, 
you know, get one of those in 

622
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:22,640
the in the coming days as well. 
But yeah, I feel like we're only

623
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:26,000
scratching the surface on trying
to get to know this guy on 

624
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:27,680
YouTube. 
What you can also do is you can 

625
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,840
find the race of the European 
Team Championships that took 

626
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:33,720
place earlier this year. 
Now as we look at sort of like 

627
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:37,320
the progression of what his 
season look like, he ran a 

628
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:43,000
couple of indoor races, opened 
up outdoors and won the dream 

629
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,320
mile. 
That's like the one race that I 

630
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:47,720
remember about this guy earlier 
earlier this year. 

631
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,000
We're biased because we're 
we're, we're Americans in the 

632
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,280
sense that we don't pay 
attention to what the European 

633
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:56,040
team championships are like. 
I all I remember is like seeing 

634
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:59,000
the highlights is like that's a 
green track and that's cool. 

635
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,000
Like it was in it was in Madrid,
Madrid. 

636
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:06,320
But what we what we lost sight 
of here is that Isaac Nader and 

637
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:10,080
I it it's on YouTube. 
You can go check this out in he 

638
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:15,120
won that 1500. 
It's a 339 race final lap. 

639
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,400
Yes, these guys just licking 
these lips. 

640
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:22,679
I'm getting final, getting B for
brushing off a 339 race. 

641
00:34:22,679 --> 00:34:31,239
Yeah, final race in a final lap.
5202 final 225.4 while also 

642
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,679
celebrating early, waving at the
crowd. 

643
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:36,440
It's like this guy had a kick 
that I think just a lot of 

644
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:40,199
people overlooked. 
Well, I mean to can I, can I get

645
00:34:40,199 --> 00:34:41,760
defensive here? 
Yes, those. 

646
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,719
A lot of people can do that. 
Yeah, I mean, he would have had 

647
00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:46,199
his hands full in the NCAA. 
He. 

648
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:49,440
Would have got worked in the 
NCAA, yeah. 

649
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,520
Yeah, he in that if you're 
telling me those splits, yeah, 

650
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:54,760
that that that's they're. 
Like Gary, Martin could have 

651
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:56,679
beat Isaac. 
Nader I don't know if Gary 

652
00:34:56,679 --> 00:35:01,240
Martin has a 52 run. 
But also, Gary, Gary Martin 

653
00:35:01,240 --> 00:35:03,320
would never be celebrating with 
200 to go. 

654
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,360
But like, I mean, to that point,
like that's not necessarily 

655
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,760
impressive doing I I don't know 
what the conditions were all 

656
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,960
that like obviously he won, but 
like running a 339 race, running

657
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:16,560
a 52 last second, like I sucked,
he beat. 

658
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:20,600
Stefan Nielsen there. 
The splits don't matter, right? 

659
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,560
Like in a situation like that 
where you're like, Oh yeah. 

660
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:27,400
Like he ran, he closed at 339 
and 52 with it's like we're 

661
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,800
talking about a guy right now 
that is the world champion. 

662
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:33,160
It's just about winning these 
races. 

663
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:38,600
Of course, like splits are fun 
in like this certain way, but 

664
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:42,680
they don't like most of the 
world isn't like doesn't like 

665
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,840
care about if you closed 25 
point. 

666
00:35:47,240 --> 00:35:49,000
It's like, did you win the did 
you win? 

667
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:53,480
What type of race have you won? 
And now Nader is a world champ 

668
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,960
and it is. 
Now it's it. 

669
00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:59,240
But now it's make. 
OK, what's next? 

670
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,240
You're going to back that up. 
You're going to do something. 

671
00:36:02,240 --> 00:36:05,000
You're going to. 
And and I guess what I'm also 

672
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:09,520
curious with is now is like him 
on the circuit, if he can stay 

673
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,560
at this level, if he's got what 
sucks is the diamond leagues are

674
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,680
just they're just paced to run 
world records. 

675
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,560
Every other weekend. 
Yeah, it's like someone like him

676
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:21,760
that that maybe 6 is succeeds at
these slower races. 

677
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,240
It's just going to be a non 
factor in these 327 through 28 

678
00:36:25,240 --> 00:36:27,040
races, yeah. 
Yeah, it's. 

679
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:28,560
It's it's something I'm not 
going to. 

680
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,280
Yeah, I'm sure I'll liken it to 
someone like Matthew Centroid. 

681
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:32,200
Who? 
Who say that? 

682
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:36,160
Bad at diamond leagues because 
they were just paced too quickly

683
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:37,800
for him. 
Yeah, like but. 

684
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,040
But but was very good to race 
exactly. 

685
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:43,640
Exactly who who cares about the 
Diamond League races when you've

686
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,720
got like the global hardware 
that a dude like Sandra has. 

687
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:51,760
But I, I do think Josh going 
down, not going down, but he 

688
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:57,200
pulls up from this race. 
I'm, I, I do think that a lot of

689
00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:00,720
these competitors probably 
thought that Josh was somebody 

690
00:37:00,720 --> 00:37:03,000
to key off of like Josh from 
the. 

691
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:04,640
Beginning, he was in the back. 
Exactly. 

692
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:08,320
So, so well, Josh, Josh said. 
You know, Jacob's on the race. 

693
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,360
I'll do the Jacob off the line 
and go right to the back and 

694
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,880
then and then he got off too 
slow in his calf. 

695
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:17,240
He's trained his calf right, not
enough blood flow in his calf 

696
00:37:17,240 --> 00:37:20,440
because they they held them at 
the line probably for an hour 

697
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,200
and a 15 minutes. 
I finally got a chance to like 

698
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:24,440
because I've been in. 
Yes. 

699
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:25,360
No. 
Now that you've been in the 

700
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,960
stands and you see what we're 
talking about, My God, My God. 

701
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:30,800
They're not afraid to hold these
guys. 

702
00:37:31,720 --> 00:37:33,640
Yeah. 
So he had no blood flow in the 

703
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:34,680
calf. 
They got off the line. 

704
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:36,720
He was right to the back, and 
they strained his calf. 

705
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:41,280
So, so yeah, now you now you 
know, we're talking about, but I

706
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:45,800
just think that Josh usually in 
this type of setting right where

707
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:52,000
Jakob, this is like the first 
global 15 in a very long time 

708
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,240
where Jakob's not in. 
And he is the guy that usually 

709
00:37:54,240 --> 00:37:56,720
goes to the front, dictates how 
the race goes. 

710
00:37:56,720 --> 00:37:59,480
If it's fast, it's slow. 
And now that he's out of it, I 

711
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,440
would have thought, and I'm sure
a lot of these guys thought, OK,

712
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:06,760
Josh is the guy that he might 
not make it a fast race, but he 

713
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:10,080
will be in the front and he will
will be, he might not, he's not 

714
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:13,520
going to make it a Jakob style 
fast race, but he will be kind 

715
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:17,280
of choosing how it's run. 
And that a lot of people key off

716
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,320
that because it's you got Laros 
who's the kicker. 

717
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,400
So he's not going to be, he's 
not going to be pushing it, but 

718
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,480
he's going to be kicking and 
dictating his race off Josh. 

719
00:38:24,720 --> 00:38:31,080
As soon as Josh goes down, 
people are like, well, yeah, 

720
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:32,240
where do we go? 
Where do we go? 

721
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:34,520
Like who who is going to be the 
one to step up? 

722
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:38,120
And all of a sudden, like Larros
found himself in the front, and 

723
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,760
that is a pretty foreign thing 
for him. 

724
00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:43,840
And so then you got Timmy. 
Timmy C goes. 

725
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:47,040
I'll help you out bud. 
He's always the British. 

726
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:49,160
Now you're feeling lonely up 
there, awkward. 

727
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:52,080
I'll help you out. 
So I, I just think that John, 

728
00:38:52,240 --> 00:38:57,520
like without Kerr in the race, 
it did change how people were 

729
00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:00,600
the mindset of, of the, the, the
competition. 

730
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:05,240
Is it just, like, not funny? 
It is to me at least, that like 

731
00:39:05,240 --> 00:39:08,360
this sort of stuff transcends 
all level of sports. 

732
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:12,560
Like you could go to your duel 
meet in high school against like

733
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:15,960
a bunch of kids, like kids that 
are running like 445 minute 

734
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:19,760
miles and it's like they'll key 
off of the fastest person no 

735
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,600
matter what. 
The same thing happens at this 

736
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:24,520
level. 
Like there, there, there's 

737
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:27,880
athletes that like Josh in this 
final without a yoke, without a 

738
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:31,240
coal that the rest of the field,
they're going, they're going to 

739
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:35,400
like, I'm going to defer to them
because I know what they're 

740
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,600
likely to do. 
And you're gauging your race off

741
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,400
of what you think that someone 
else is going to do. 

742
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,400
That happens at this level with 
everybody. 

743
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:44,440
Yeah. 
And so as soon as like, to 

744
00:39:44,720 --> 00:39:49,960
Eric's point, as soon as someone
like Josh, who was the the, the 

745
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:53,280
big dog in this race, that is, 
is an odd factor. 

746
00:39:54,240 --> 00:39:55,760
You're immediately going, oh, 
shit. 

747
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:57,600
Like what's Plan B, what's plan 
C? 

748
00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:00,160
And then you're you're actively 
trying to gauge off of what's 

749
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:01,760
happening in real time instead 
of like. 

750
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,760
Oh my gosh, what was what were 
my plans? 

751
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,720
Yeah, I, I, you know what? 
I reckon someone who wasn't king

752
00:40:07,720 --> 00:40:11,720
of Josh would have been Jake, 
but I think he would have been a

753
00:40:11,720 --> 00:40:13,800
guy that was very. 
He's been there. 

754
00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:15,360
Exactly. 
He would have been very 

755
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:19,280
unconcerned with the movements 
of Josh Kerr and to the point he

756
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:23,800
just sat on that shoulder for so
long, Jake and he and he would 

757
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:26,040
have just been so happy and 
content with whoever it was out 

758
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:26,840
in front. 
He didn't care. 

759
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,880
He always I I would imagine he 
always had 250. 

760
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,200
I'm out of here. 
I don't care who shot Timmy 

761
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:35,240
shoulder, Joshua shoulder, Laris
shoulder, whoever it is that's 

762
00:40:35,240 --> 00:40:36,200
leading. 
I'm out of here. 

763
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:39,440
It's I'm just thinking on the 
flight like this, this kind of 

764
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:44,040
victory for nada is giving me 
real shades of Jimmy Gresiak a 

765
00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:47,520
couple of days ago in terms of 
when you talk about time moving 

766
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:49,960
forward, are you going to worry 
about this guy when the races 

767
00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,400
get fast? 
You know, usually a world 

768
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:55,040
beater, all that sort of stuff. 
And I'm going to just double 

769
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:57,560
down to my point as what you 
guys have already said about 

770
00:40:57,560 --> 00:40:58,640
diamond legs and all this sort 
of shit. 

771
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:02,120
It's all, it is all fugazi at 
the end of the day, running 

772
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:03,200
fast. 
It is. 

773
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:04,960
It's all, it's all great on 
paper. 

774
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:06,320
And it's like you're faster than
him. 

775
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:07,200
That's great. 
That's great. 

776
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:11,360
Every single guy who is faster 
than Nader or Jimmy Greasier 

777
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,480
would trade every single time to
be the world. 

778
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:15,080
Champ, let's like, think about 
like. 

779
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:18,600
Everything you would trade to be
a world better than than world 

780
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,960
beaters. 
Think about like, like I'm king 

781
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:25,920
up for what you're you're saying
the the the winners of this 

782
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:29,280
championship. 
Nader Yeah. 

783
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:33,480
Jimmy Gressier, George Beamish. 
Yeah, it's just upset after 

784
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:38,720
upset after upset in these 
distance races and like that it 

785
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:40,400
can't just be random. 
So. 

786
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:44,200
That that that begs the question
is like we're halfway through 

787
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:48,680
the this World Championships. 
Like there's still time for, you

788
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:52,160
know, the plot to really change 
in the second-half, Although 

789
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:55,640
like things are trending across 
the board in the same direction 

790
00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:59,880
with the world championship 
shifting to the end of the 

791
00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:03,840
season, in many cases, it will 
be in September. 

792
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:08,600
Like is this the new norm where 
that is going to force people to

793
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,280
change how they structure their 
season where it's like, all 

794
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:15,200
right, maybe like I started 
started off a little bit later. 

795
00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:20,080
But in addition to that, like 
how these World Championships 

796
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:22,240
are going to be remembered. 
Like this could be the beginning

797
00:42:22,240 --> 00:42:25,120
of like, all right, that was our
sign to the for all these heavy 

798
00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:28,040
favourites to start to change, 
you know, how they approach the 

799
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:31,880
season or like, are we going to 
remember this as like the world 

800
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:35,400
championship of upsets? 
I'm going to only play 1 slight 

801
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:38,560
devil's advocate and that the 
women's side of things has gone 

802
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:40,000
the way that we expected it to 
go. 

803
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:43,320
But part of that is just 
because, like, some of those 

804
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:46,920
athletes are just the 
generational talents like a like

805
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:49,440
Faith Chirotis and Winfred Yavi.
Like, it could have gone either 

806
00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:50,760
way. 
Like, those were two very 

807
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:53,640
expected contenders. 
Like Faith could be a gone. 

808
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:56,760
It was a very expected winner. 
Yeah, but I would argue that 

809
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:58,800
king. 
Hodgkinson loses and then sure, 

810
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:02,200
yeah, maybe. 
I would argue that I always 

811
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:04,560
forget how to say his name is 
Steepler, the Moroccan Steepler.

812
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:05,560
That is it. 
Elva Kylie. 

813
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:09,280
Elva Kylie is like arguably the 
like one of the greatest steeple

814
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:11,120
chasers of all time, Right? 
So that's someone that you 

815
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:13,640
predicted was going to get it in
the 1500. 

816
00:43:13,720 --> 00:43:18,520
To everyone's point, there is no
way in hell at the start of the 

817
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:21,720
1500 meter rounds, you're like, 
Oh yeah, Jake Whiteman, Nader 

818
00:43:21,720 --> 00:43:24,000
and Chariot, of course. 
Like I know Cole Hawker and 

819
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:25,000
Jakob are in the field. 
You would. 

820
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:26,560
Have been like this. 
These guys with witch. 

821
00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:28,880
Chariot. 
Yeah, like the Cole Hawker is 

822
00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:32,040
the Olympic champion and 
tactically one of the of the 

823
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:34,840
smartest guys in the world. 
Now, no one knew what Jakob Inga

824
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,160
Britson was going to bring. 
That's a generational talent. 

825
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:39,720
But obviously he's been injured,
so I suppose that one goes to 

826
00:43:39,720 --> 00:43:41,200
the wayside. 
My point being that. 

827
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,000
The man, Nader. 
Yeah, the the man. 

828
00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:46,440
Has Nader the. 
Guy who ran for the Green Party 

829
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:48,440
for the president. 
Yeah, Ralph Nader. 

830
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:52,000
Yeah. 
Jeez, this guy tells it. 

831
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:58,240
What careers does this guy have?
Yeah, go down as upsets, but the

832
00:43:58,240 --> 00:44:00,440
women continually. 
They're a little bit more. 

833
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:02,560
Tonight in the Staples, another 
example. 

834
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:07,080
But you know, the women are, 
they've clocked it all the all 

835
00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:09,280
the goats of their events, 
they've clocked it somehow and 

836
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:11,000
they've they've managed to 
dominate, but. 

837
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:14,280
Yeah, it's just, but I think 
like they're just so far the the

838
00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,760
people at the top end of that 
are just like so far ahead of 

839
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:17,800
everyone else. 
But I. 

840
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:22,560
Albert Kali is was like if you 
would have put odds on him it'd 

841
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:25,680
be $1.00 O one that Albert Kali 
would win that. 

842
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:29,080
Yeah, 3000 but so like, but 
Chris's question is that like, 

843
00:44:30,240 --> 00:44:34,600
are these guys or like are 
athletes going to take into 

844
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,600
account the the what the timing 
of the year and. 

845
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:39,960
Beijing in 2027 is going to be 
in September. 

846
00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:41,280
So it's going to be around the 
same time. 

847
00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:43,880
Yeah. 
Then yes, absolutely there will 

848
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:46,400
be coach. 
Not only will the athlete, yes, 

849
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:49,920
the athletes will be taking into
account how they're feeling this

850
00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:52,240
year, how much they've raced 
grants. 

851
00:44:52,240 --> 00:44:55,080
Like, we've seen a lot people. 
And not only have we seen a lot,

852
00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:58,240
but people have been talking a 
lot about how great the people 

853
00:44:58,240 --> 00:45:00,280
who have run the Grand Slam and 
race Grand Slam. 

854
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:02,000
But that was getting people 
regulating that. 

855
00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:04,640
Yes, they thought I'd be getting
ready, but a lot of people feel 

856
00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:07,240
like the Grand Slam took a lot 
out of them for sure. 

857
00:45:07,240 --> 00:45:10,320
And that they're just they're 
because it, it is tiring. 

858
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:15,400
And so yes, these athletes, 
every athlete is very calculated

859
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:18,280
and you, you, they will be 
taking into account how they're 

860
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:21,080
feeling and they will make the 
adjustments for next year, but 

861
00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:23,280
not only they will, the coaches 
will be. 

862
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:27,280
And so guys, if they raced well,
they'll be trying to emulate how

863
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:29,040
they did that. 
And if, if, if, if it's 

864
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:32,440
something that they can 
reproduce next year and the 

865
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,400
others will be making 
adjustments, but 100%. 

866
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:38,120
When's the ultimate? 
Next year is that. 

867
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:42,600
September September 11th to 13th
in Budapest. 

868
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:46,240
That'll be hot, yeah. 
So, yeah, I mean, people are 

869
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:49,080
going to have to adapt and 
change to this new model, I mean

870
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:50,680
it all. 
And now I guess like in the 

871
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:54,160
coming days, we'll find out like
where 2029 and 2031 will be 

872
00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:58,200
held, like Kenya, London, like 
all these places are up for the 

873
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:00,080
running and like it'll. 
Be hard in Kenya. 

874
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:05,160
And altitude, it'll be high. 
I'm like Timothy Carey. 

875
00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:07,080
It's like I can. 
Hold on. 

876
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:09,040
Yeah, I got a couple more years 
of me. 

877
00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:13,040
Yeah, he's. 
Like 2029, what's Timothy going 

878
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:18,000
to be at that at that point? 
But yeah, something like that. 

879
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:20,920
Yeah. 
So, yeah, I mean it's we'll see 

880
00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:23,760
and it's it's another question I
guess we'll ask at the very end 

881
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:27,120
of of these world championship 
is how do we think that the 

882
00:46:27,240 --> 00:46:30,880
these ten days in Tokyo are 
going to be in remembered like 

883
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:33,080
going forward? 
So because right now everyone's 

884
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:36,600
looking at this like this is a 
weird World Championships filled

885
00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:41,200
with upsets, but it comes as a 
consequence of so many 

886
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:43,440
different. 
Things, yeah. 

887
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:58,960
No, it does. 
We broke because Mac chose to go

888
00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:02,560
to the bathroom in the middle of
this, did not close the door. 

889
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:08,600
We heard sounds that should not 
be coming from a person's body. 

890
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:12,520
Cute. 
Oh shit. 

891
00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:14,040
Oh, this is. 
Oh good. 

892
00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:17,280
This is this is where people are
like, oh, look, look at Sidious.

893
00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:18,840
They're laughing at fart jokes. 
Yeah. 

894
00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:24,640
It wasn't even a fart joke, it 
was a fart so spectacular I'm 

895
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:32,560
sure the mic caught it. 
Oh my God, so so nuts. 

896
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:37,960
Fucking fart man, it was crazy. 
Anyway. 

897
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:40,040
Oh my God, We're like, I'm like,
Chris said. 

898
00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:42,640
We're trying to like, so 
serious, like they're gay. 

899
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:45,400
And then like, like from like, 
you know? 

900
00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:58,840
Like, yeah, yeah. 
They broke my focus. 

901
00:47:58,840 --> 00:47:59,640
Yeah, I. 
Know, I know. 

902
00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:04,280
I'm like, yeah, no, we're not, 
we're not making for TV. 

903
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:09,600
But like Mick, Mick looked the 
other room like holy shit, holy 

904
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:13,840
cow. 
Yeah, Mick, Mick off off camera.

905
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:17,800
Mitch is like, he goes, you 
check on him, he's like, I'll 

906
00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:21,160
go, I'll go anyway. 
Anyway, open mouth. 

907
00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:25,440
Mac is Mac is back and he's OK. 
Fucking he's. 

908
00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:31,440
He's been relieved of what's 
been stressing him. 

909
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:35,080
Probably for a bit. 
All right, amazing. 

910
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:37,640
We covered the men's 15 for an 
hour. 

911
00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:41,480
All right, it's been an hour. 
It's an hour of the men's 15. 

912
00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:48,040
What did you expect? 
Let's move on over to the 

913
00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:51,440
women's steeplechase final, the 
other distance final on the 

914
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:54,320
track today. 
And as I kind of mentioned 

915
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:58,280
before, Bates Rotich, Winfred 
Yavi, that's what was going to 

916
00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:04,040
be the duel ended up happening. 
Bates Rotich breaks Winfred Yavi

917
00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:08,200
on the final water barrier, A 
decisive move. 

918
00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:12,560
Trotich wins in 851-A 
championship record. 

919
00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:17,840
I that's kind of like the time 
that I expected coming into this

920
00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:19,920
because those two. 
You saw 851? 

921
00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:23,800
Yeah, well, I mean. 
Yeah, no, it because Diamond 

922
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:25,720
League final has been fast. 
So many of these Diamond League 

923
00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:29,680
like races where they've gone up
head to head against each other 

924
00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:33,280
like they've been quick. 
And so something in that range 

925
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:35,120
is, is what I expected. 
I guess. 

926
00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:40,920
Like, the only surprise for me 
was Sembo Alamweyu from Ethiopia

927
00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:45,320
Notch in a PB of 858 for for 3rd
place. 

928
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:52,760
I honestly thought that it would
be who did I have in there? 

929
00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:56,360
No, it was that Lemingle. 
It would be a Parrot Shimutai. 

930
00:49:56,360 --> 00:49:58,560
But I'm not even seeing her in 
the results because I bet, I 

931
00:49:58,560 --> 00:49:59,840
bet. 
I think she was the one who went

932
00:49:59,840 --> 00:50:00,800
down hard. 
Yeah. 

933
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:03,720
Yeah. 
So parrot Shimutai with a very 

934
00:50:03,720 --> 00:50:08,560
scary hard fall. 
And so she falls like. 

935
00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,160
Was it the water? 
No, it was after one of the 

936
00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:14,080
barriers on the backstretch. 
Here they go after a barrier. 

937
00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:19,880
Yeah, it's like the amount of 
falls. 

938
00:50:20,240 --> 00:50:21,400
There's a tough. 
Flat. 

939
00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:22,960
Yeah, I mean, I'm thinking 
about. 

940
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,600
What's a Garma? 
Garma was it was last year, 

941
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:29,440
right? 
I mean, geez, the like the 

942
00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:34,240
steeples, the most dangerous 
event in it's like a CTE type of

943
00:50:34,240 --> 00:50:38,840
football race. 
Yeah, I mean like it it I'm like

944
00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:41,400
I'm I was thinking about Germa 
last year and. 

945
00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:43,280
That was a scary. 
That was really scary. 

946
00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:44,680
That was, I mean, he was knocked
out. 

947
00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:46,400
Cole, he was on the track. 
He was gone. 

948
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:47,800
He was gone. 
He was gone so. 

949
00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:54,120
This, the steeple is just, I 
mean, when are you going to see 

950
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:57,480
that type of? 
You're not going to see that on 

951
00:50:57,480 --> 00:50:59,400
another event in the track. 
No, no. 

952
00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:04,240
Yeah. 
So in general, this this one ton

953
00:51:04,240 --> 00:51:09,680
of to me went as expected, where
it was like the faith Roach, 

954
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:12,160
Winfred, the obvious, like just 
broke broke away. 

955
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:19,040
It was the whole lead pack aside
from guess the Krauss were East 

956
00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:22,720
African or like born in East 
Africa before running for for 

957
00:51:22,720 --> 00:51:25,080
other countries. 
And then the second-half you had

958
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:28,520
guess the Krauss leading Leah 
Meyer was up there in the in the

959
00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:31,400
front for a little bit. 
The the pack of Americans stayed

960
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:36,440
strong all throughout running 
together top American on the day

961
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:42,320
Angelina Napoleon from NC State 
who will be going back to the 

962
00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:44,640
States and running cross country
this season, I would. 

963
00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:47,800
Say she's she's missing cross 
country camp right now, Yeah, 

964
00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:50,120
which is wild to think about 
because she started her year. 

965
00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:51,680
I think. 
I believe she's a sophomore. 

966
00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:53,760
We are talking. 
Now I think rising junior, 

967
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:55,760
probably. 
But we were talking to her, 

968
00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:57,160
Chris, like just a couple years 
ago. 

969
00:51:57,360 --> 00:51:59,200
New bounce, Sasha. 
New bounce nationals. 

970
00:51:59,240 --> 00:52:01,640
And she was like, yeah, I kind 
of like the 400 hurdles or the 

971
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:04,920
steeple. 
I could also do the 200 or the 

972
00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:06,840
two mile. 
Like it's like an all around 

973
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:10,480
athlete. 
And she's just had a, she's just

974
00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:13,320
had a wild year and. 
Yeah, I'm leaving. 

975
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:15,240
Better and better and better 
every single time out. 

976
00:52:15,240 --> 00:52:20,080
And, and for her to come out as 
a top American in an event that 

977
00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:23,240
that the US is, is generally 
pretty strong and that is just 

978
00:52:23,240 --> 00:52:25,040
like crazy promising for her 
future. 

979
00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:26,680
Along with some of the other 
Americans. 

980
00:52:26,720 --> 00:52:30,240
Their first national team, they 
all made the final. 

981
00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:34,120
And yeah, like the, I guess like
the, the, the big, I don't know,

982
00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:35,960
it's not a question. 
But like this is one of those 

983
00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:39,920
events where the the top 
grouping is just so far ahead of

984
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:41,880
everybody else. 
And it's not just the Americans.

985
00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:45,680
Like we're looking at people 
that have over 3000 meters have 

986
00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:52,400
like a 22nd plus, like personal 
best better than most of the 

987
00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:55,080
rest of the world. 
So yeah, like Chris was saying 

988
00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:58,480
like, yeah, this is kind of how 
he thought it was gonna go. 

989
00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:03,360
It's like, yeah, because over 
3000 meters, a 22nd difference 

990
00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:06,320
is just it's, it's a different 
event. 

991
00:53:06,360 --> 00:53:11,040
Yeah, the top American was 26 
seconds back of of the win. 

992
00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:14,520
A little less than that, you 
know, from from the metals Like 

993
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:19,280
it's it's one of those events 
where right now, like we're in 

994
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:21,520
the developmental phase, I 
think. 

995
00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:25,400
But it we have seen them go 
faster than they did today. 

996
00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:28,840
Again, tough conditions. 
Yeah, I leave these, I leave 

997
00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:33,280
these World Championships like a
fan of Angelina Napoleon because

998
00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:36,320
of just like the potential 
that's that's ahead. 

999
00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:37,840
Yeah, yeah. 
I would say there's waves, 

1000
00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:38,600
right? 
There's. 

1001
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:41,600
Even like I I think the 
Americans like it's their first 

1002
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:43,840
national team, like crazy 
conditions. 

1003
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,480
It is for crazy conditions for 
every single athlete on the 

1004
00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:49,600
start line here. 
But yeah, like as we make the 

1005
00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:53,440
push towards Lai think that like
the the women's steeple team is 

1006
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,720
going to be like just crazy 
competition making it. 

1007
00:53:55,720 --> 00:53:57,520
Sorry, Eric. 
Oh, no, I'm just thinking about 

1008
00:53:57,520 --> 00:54:01,200
like when you would have 
Courtney Freyricks and Emma 

1009
00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:02,760
Coburn. 
Yeah, we were spoiled. 

1010
00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:05,720
We're yeah, it's so it's like 
it's just waves, right? 

1011
00:54:05,720 --> 00:54:09,200
And this is an event that's 
unbelievably talented, 851 

1012
00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:13,360
championship record. 
It's going to be very tough to 

1013
00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:19,800
for a USA squad that they're all
very new to the scene to compete

1014
00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:23,320
with the fastest in history on a
championship scene. 

1015
00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:28,920
It's just it's it's very hard. 
But you wouldn't say that the 

1016
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:33,280
that this group of athletes 
wouldn't be much higher towards 

1017
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:35,680
the top. 
And you know, a few years to 

1018
00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:37,920
come. 
It's it's takes time, right? 

1019
00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:39,960
Like you're not going to hit a 
home run. 

1020
00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:45,800
You're first at bat. 
So this the the, the steeple, 

1021
00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:48,920
the women's steeple actually way
more than the men's steeple is 

1022
00:54:48,920 --> 00:54:53,000
just fast. 
And it's like the men's steeple 

1023
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:57,920
isn't all isn't I was, it's not 
even usually fast. 

1024
00:54:58,360 --> 00:55:02,960
The women's steeple is always 
fast and so. 

1025
00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:07,120
You have the, I mean, just with 
the odds of looking at this 

1026
00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:09,200
field, there's someone here 
who's going to be like, all 

1027
00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:11,040
right, today we're going to run 
under 9 minutes. 

1028
00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:12,960
It's just a matter of like, 
yeah, how far? 

1029
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:15,000
Under nine, Yeah. 
And it's like, all right, we 

1030
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:17,560
could bring one or two other 
people with me and so. 

1031
00:55:17,720 --> 00:55:20,400
I mean, like, like watching this
race, there was a gap. 

1032
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:24,760
Immediately a huge. 
Gap like they were like right 

1033
00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:29,320
away there was, you know, here 
is a record setting pace and 

1034
00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:31,440
then here is like, look up. 
We're not going to we're not 

1035
00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:35,280
keeping up with that pace. 
So the Americans worked together

1036
00:55:35,720 --> 00:55:42,600
and ran their race and it's it's
it's the international scene is 

1037
00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:45,440
a learning experience. 
It's so much different than 

1038
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:51,680
racing against other Americans. 
It's or it's just it's just so, 

1039
00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:54,200
so good. 
I mean, it's record setting good

1040
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:57,560
today in today's case and you 
just aren't going to get that in

1041
00:55:57,560 --> 00:56:00,120
in other other races even like 
Diamond League. 

1042
00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:06,800
So, and especially with a, with 
some American athlete like she's

1043
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,280
going back to cross country, 
she's going to cross country 

1044
00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:15,520
preseason, she's late. 
Think about like even for to to 

1045
00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:18,160
add on to what you're saying, 
Eric, like how different this is

1046
00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:20,840
versus Diamond Lakes. 
Think about Doris Lemingle who 

1047
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:27,480
in lives on in that absolute 
downpour was leading by like 

1048
00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:30,920
1520 seconds compared to the 
rest of the field that she ended

1049
00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:33,760
up running like 9-10 ish strong 
in. 

1050
00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:36,720
The monster but. 
She she crushed the rest of the 

1051
00:56:36,720 --> 00:56:38,920
field and that was that was her 
Diamond League debut. 

1052
00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:42,040
And so like her first, that's 
not her first international 

1053
00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:43,920
experience, but that was her 
first Diamond League experience 

1054
00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:45,560
was like, oh, I'm killing this 
field. 

1055
00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:48,640
And that's like, that's the 
cream of the crop of the world 

1056
00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:52,840
for like that league. 
And then she cut, and then, and 

1057
00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:56,680
then she shows up to world 
champs and then she's buried. 

1058
00:56:56,680 --> 00:57:00,080
5th yeah. 5th I mean, 
Chirotichunyavi, we're not, 

1059
00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:02,360
yeah. 
But I mean, she's, she's still 

1060
00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:04,200
like 12 seconds behind, you 
know? 

1061
00:57:04,280 --> 00:57:06,600
Yeah, yeah. 
Which in a three in which in 

1062
00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:09,000
3000? 
3000A meter, 12 seconds is a lot

1063
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:12,200
of yeah, yeah. 
I mean, you could say buried, 

1064
00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:13,400
yeah. 
I mean, it's not buried in the 

1065
00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:16,920
results in terms of like 5th 
isn't buried but 12 seconds is 

1066
00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:17,920
buried. 
Buried it. 

1067
00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:22,280
Buried compared to winning a 
Diamond League just weeks prior.

1068
00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:23,800
Yeah, by. 
Yeah, so like a. 

1069
00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:25,960
Whopping margin, yeah, Yeah. 
Absolutely. 

1070
00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:28,840
Yeah, well, the conditions 
played a major factor there. 

1071
00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:30,360
But everyone was running in the 
rain. 

1072
00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:31,960
It's same thing here, Everyone 
but not. 

1073
00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:34,360
Everyone showed up because 
Chirotis and Yavi were not 

1074
00:57:34,360 --> 00:57:36,600
there. 
True. 

1075
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:41,160
All right. 
So I think like when at USASI 

1076
00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:44,320
said something about like what 
would be good for this team 

1077
00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:50,000
making the final and then making
the finishing better than last 

1078
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:53,920
year's squad. 
Last year at the Paris Olympics,

1079
00:57:53,920 --> 00:57:58,960
it was Courtney Whitman in 12th 
and Valconstein in 15th, and 

1080
00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:04,720
then today it was Angelina 
Napoleon 9th and Kaylee Mitchell

1081
00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:06,880
10. 
So they better that mark. 

1082
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:09,320
And then in 14th was Lexi 
Holiday Lowry. 

1083
00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:14,800
Rough day for her. 
So yeah, that was the women's 

1084
00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:20,760
3000 meter steeplechase. 
And now I think we'll. 

1085
00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:21,960
Wow, perfect timing. 
Yeah. 

1086
00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:23,560
Should we just get Anderson like
you want to? 

1087
00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:25,280
Interesting. 
Come on in and. 

1088
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:28,440
You want to RIP through these, 
these two hundreds and. 

1089
00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:30,600
Yeah, we're going to RIP through
some 2 hundreds. 

1090
00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:33,720
And actually, Eric, stay on per 
SEC, we're going to touch on the

1091
00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:37,160
men's 400 meter hurdles. 
Yeah, Yeah. 

1092
00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:40,120
All right, totally for Mitch. 
Thank you so much. 

1093
00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:41,480
Thank you. 
All right, I'll. 

1094
00:58:42,280 --> 00:58:45,600
Hop on, see you bud. 
Women's 200 heats. 

1095
00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:49,560
No surprises, No surprises 
through the women's 200 heats. 

1096
00:58:49,560 --> 00:58:52,320
You had all all the Americans 
slid through. 

1097
00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:55,160
You had a Navy battle. 
The first fastest time of the 

1098
00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:57,360
day, fastest time of. 
The day that was her, that's 

1099
00:58:57,360 --> 00:58:59,800
actually the second fastest time
of her entire career. 

1100
00:58:59,800 --> 00:59:01,920
So she's clearly in like great 
form. 

1101
00:59:01,920 --> 00:59:04,360
She the last time she made a 
team was the Tokyo Olympic 

1102
00:59:04,360 --> 00:59:06,120
Games, So literally at this 
track. 

1103
00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:10,560
So she's looking good. 
I'll just go through the 

1104
00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:13,280
Americans real quick. 
I mean, Brittany Brown also won 

1105
00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:15,200
her heat. 
She looked very comfortable. 

1106
00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:18,280
She was, you know, famously 
chasing the the Diamond League 

1107
00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:20,120
wild card. 
But then when Gabby pulled out, 

1108
00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:23,080
you know, she was eventually 
safe, but she looked very, very 

1109
00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:26,760
comfortable, felt very good. 
McKenzie Long also qualified 

1110
00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:28,840
through. 
So she was the product of Gabby 

1111
00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:32,080
actually, you know, pulling out 
and she was able to get a spot 

1112
00:59:32,080 --> 00:59:33,600
here. 
Strong replacement. 

1113
00:59:33,760 --> 00:59:37,480
I mean, good, like, good. 
You talking about an Olympic 

1114
00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:39,480
finalist? 
And I spoke to her afterwards 

1115
00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:42,760
and she was saying like, so she 
posted on Instagram and she was.

1116
00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:44,320
Going to take a break. 
She was going to take a break. 

1117
00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:47,640
She was like mentally exhausted 
and like, was ready to like, 

1118
00:59:48,120 --> 00:59:50,280
like everything was, you know, 
ready to end things off. 

1119
00:59:50,600 --> 00:59:54,400
But like a day later, she got a 
call from her agent and is like,

1120
00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:56,480
hey, you, you're running the 
200. 

1121
00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:59,000
And so she jumped in like you 
can't take. 

1122
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:01,920
That and pass on that, yeah. 
Yeah, so because he's through 

1123
01:00:01,920 --> 01:00:04,400
and I and then Melissa Jefferson
wouldn't of course she is 

1124
01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:07,400
through very comfortably. 
And then you know, shout out to 

1125
01:00:07,400 --> 01:00:09,960
Sharika Jackson. 
She of course has had an up and 

1126
01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:11,720
down season. 
We saw her in the 100. 

1127
01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:13,120
She eventually got 4th place 
there. 

1128
01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:16,160
I think she's she looked very 
comfortable and she's someone 

1129
01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:18,440
who we should definitely look 
out for when, when it comes to 

1130
01:00:18,440 --> 01:00:20,560
200 when we're talking about the
final so. 

1131
01:00:20,840 --> 01:00:26,120
That was the women's 200 heats. 
Yeah, literally no one of no, no

1132
01:00:26,120 --> 01:00:30,280
one eliminated. 
Men's 200 heats, same similar 

1133
01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:33,320
thing. 
No heavy hitters eliminated 

1134
01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:34,440
here. 
Yeah. 

1135
01:00:34,440 --> 01:00:36,960
This is pretty smooth, 
impressive performance is Brian 

1136
01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:40,720
Lavelle of Jamaica running 1984 
shutting it down even you were 

1137
01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:42,920
in the stands real like he's 
looking good. 

1138
01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:45,960
He looks fantastic. 
Yeah, I mean to. 

1139
01:00:46,680 --> 01:00:49,960
Was that the fastest time of the
men's 200? 

1140
01:00:49,960 --> 01:00:51,640
Oh, by far. 
Like no, I mean. 

1141
01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:54,520
He cut it way down, yeah. 
It was like. 

1142
01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:58,440
OT it was it was so impressive 
that I said two critical. 

1143
01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:02,040
Is that obliques Bill? 
Yeah, yeah, he was. 

1144
01:01:02,560 --> 01:01:05,640
No. 
Well, he's going to be a world 

1145
01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:07,120
champ, it looks like. 
Possibly. 

1146
01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:11,000
It's a different Jamaican would.
Be would be crazy for Jamaica. 

1147
01:01:11,000 --> 01:01:13,080
To, I mean, just looks. 
I mean, she shut it down. 

1148
01:01:13,160 --> 01:01:16,080
It was kind of like reminisce of
Sydney in the 400. 

1149
01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:18,760
It's like they ran so fast 
shutting it down. 

1150
01:01:18,800 --> 01:01:22,080
Yeah. 
I was like, it was very, very 

1151
01:01:22,080 --> 01:01:23,480
impressive. 
Just hand him the gold medal 

1152
01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:24,040
now. 
No that. 

1153
01:01:24,040 --> 01:01:26,280
I mean, that'd be wild. 
I think the one thing to think 

1154
01:01:26,280 --> 01:01:29,360
about with Brian is like, how 
does he manage rounds? 

1155
01:01:29,360 --> 01:01:33,360
Because 19-8 in a HEAT is 
insanely fast and like, sure, 

1156
01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:35,600
you're shutting it down, but I 
don't know. 

1157
01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:39,720
We just watched Corey Patterson 
in the 400, right 43, and then 

1158
01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:42,560
he ends up as a time qualifier. 
Ran too fast. 

1159
01:01:42,880 --> 01:01:45,080
So that, that's something to to 
think about. 

1160
01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:48,120
And he's he was at the Olympics 
last year, but he only made it 

1161
01:01:48,120 --> 01:01:50,320
to the the revisage rounds and 
into the semis. 

1162
01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:52,320
But so that's something to look 
out for. 

1163
01:01:53,720 --> 01:01:56,040
We had all the Americans qualify
through. 

1164
01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:59,560
Well, actually, I'm sorry. 
No, Robert Gregory didn't. 

1165
01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:01,680
He was the lone American who 
unfortunately didn't. 

1166
01:02:01,680 --> 01:02:04,720
His world championship debut 
unfortunately didn't go his way.

1167
01:02:05,480 --> 01:02:08,720
But we did have no allows. 
Kenny BI saw we there was a they

1168
01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:10,760
had an interesting interaction. 
Yeah. 

1169
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:15,440
So, Eric, tell the story about 
what we how we found out about 

1170
01:02:15,440 --> 01:02:19,320
this are. 
We so I can say, yeah, OK, well,

1171
01:02:19,800 --> 01:02:25,120
so me and so we're sitting, OK, 
we're sitting in the stands, 

1172
01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:27,200
right? 
And there is a guy next to us 

1173
01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:31,160
who is wearing a inflatable 
shrimp head. 

1174
01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:34,440
This is a true. 
Story How does this get? 

1175
01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:38,840
I'm, I'm yeah, No, no, no, I'm 
lying because like, it's not 

1176
01:02:38,840 --> 01:02:39,640
true. 
No. 

1177
01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:41,480
So we're sitting in the stands. 
There's a guy who's wearing a A.

1178
01:02:43,080 --> 01:02:44,760
Huge. 
Huge shrimp head. 

1179
01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:49,360
Can't miss. 
And there's there's arguably, I 

1180
01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:52,400
would say there's maybe only one
other part. 

1181
01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:56,680
There's no other people wearing 
shrimp heads in the stadium on 

1182
01:02:56,680 --> 01:03:02,040
the shrimp head. 
He has his Instagram handle. 

1183
01:03:02,560 --> 01:03:06,400
And so we were like, I was like,
how many followers is, you know,

1184
01:03:06,400 --> 01:03:11,080
this guy have like and Chris 
pulls up his Instagram and he 

1185
01:03:11,080 --> 01:03:19,920
goes to his story and that the 
great clip of of Noah and Kenny 

1186
01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:22,800
on the stairs. 
Chris is showing me this. 

1187
01:03:22,800 --> 01:03:25,360
They go, wow, that's a fantastic
shot you got. 

1188
01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:29,400
He goes, that's shrimp head, 
that's shrimp heads Instagram 

1189
01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:33,360
story. 
And then Chris just screen 

1190
01:03:33,360 --> 01:03:36,760
records it and I go, well, 
that's not and that's. 

1191
01:03:37,640 --> 01:03:39,320
Like are we giving him credit? 
That's copyright. 

1192
01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:41,360
That's that's not. 
It's on. 

1193
01:03:41,360 --> 01:03:43,680
It's on the guy's Instagrams. 
It will say. 

1194
01:03:43,720 --> 01:03:46,120
Did you give him? 
Did you give him credit? 

1195
01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:49,360
His handle is on it, too. 
And so then I was like, I was 

1196
01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:52,680
like, Eric, let's get the people
talking like, let's. 

1197
01:03:53,160 --> 01:03:56,080
It's actually such a good clip. 
Yeah, and so with the it's just 

1198
01:03:56,440 --> 01:03:59,360
Noah's going up the stairs. 
He waves at at the shrimp 

1199
01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:02,520
costume because like, why 
wouldn't you if you saw a man in

1200
01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:06,400
a shrimp costume and then Kenny 
Bernard is going down the stairs

1201
01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:09,480
and then just gives Noah like a 
fist bumper or high. 

1202
01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:11,440
Him up, Yeah. 
He just dapped him up and it's 

1203
01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:15,840
like for two guys who were just 
like in like so much just. 

1204
01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:19,280
Drama, Drama controversy. 
After the US championships, I 

1205
01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:23,320
was like, all right, like. 
Well, so shrimp, shrimp pad. 

1206
01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:27,280
It wasn't even a shrimp costume.
It was just a giant head of a 

1207
01:04:27,280 --> 01:04:31,120
shrimp. 
OK, but his Instagram so his I 

1208
01:04:31,120 --> 01:04:33,000
would thought it'd be track 
related. 

1209
01:04:33,240 --> 01:04:36,400
His whole, his whole profile is 
just him and his family. 

1210
01:04:36,560 --> 01:04:40,400
He's got like 1000 followers. 
And I was like, it's an 

1211
01:04:40,400 --> 01:04:44,840
interesting move to like 
advertise your Instagram when 

1212
01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:46,480
it's just like, you know, your 
kids. 

1213
01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:50,280
And it's just, it was very funny
to me. 

1214
01:04:50,280 --> 01:04:55,760
And then his, he's just putting 
out golden clips behind the 

1215
01:04:55,760 --> 01:05:00,840
scenes track footage that Chavez
is he's just ripping off and 

1216
01:05:00,840 --> 01:05:03,480
putting it on the the official 
city of space. 

1217
01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:08,000
Yeah. 
Like I, I mean, I'm going back 

1218
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:10,240
on his page because I haven't 
viewed his story since. 

1219
01:05:12,280 --> 01:05:16,440
But I mean Kenny and Noah look 
kill, I mean they. 

1220
01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:18,760
Look good. 
Yeah, I I feel like I might be 

1221
01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:20,680
on there right. 
I think Kenny after they'd give 

1222
01:05:20,680 --> 01:05:22,520
the fist month like Noah even 
like turned around. 

1223
01:05:22,520 --> 01:05:24,520
He's like, Kenny said something.
Kenny said. 

1224
01:05:24,640 --> 01:05:28,240
Kenny, I'm like, I'm like, I 
think I'm like, I know. 

1225
01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:33,080
I believe. 
No, no one was walking up. 

1226
01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:34,880
Kenny's walking down here. 
Yep. 

1227
01:05:35,560 --> 01:05:37,720
Marco, he's passing Marco. 
Rope, Yeah. 

1228
01:05:38,720 --> 01:05:41,080
Marco says Erics kind of shit 
talker huh? 

1229
01:05:41,080 --> 01:05:44,640
And then Kenny says something to
Noah. 

1230
01:05:44,720 --> 01:05:49,240
But like in a just like. 
I mean, they adapted their good 

1231
01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:50,080
job. 
Yeah. 

1232
01:05:50,080 --> 01:05:54,960
No, like it wasn't. 
The restive sushi or shrimp 

1233
01:05:54,960 --> 01:05:58,880
man's story is just like his 
night at the track and like Eric

1234
01:05:58,880 --> 01:06:01,120
and I might be in the videos 
because we're sitting right next

1235
01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:03,680
to it. 
Yeah, Oh my God, it's like it 

1236
01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:06,320
cuts to me asking for a picture 
with shrimp head. 

1237
01:06:07,680 --> 01:06:08,440
That's crazy. 
But. 

1238
01:06:08,960 --> 01:06:11,400
Katie Katie Moon is is on his 
story. 

1239
01:06:11,840 --> 01:06:15,320
But yeah, good shrimp head with 
some absolutely great footage, 

1240
01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:18,560
200 meter, 200 meter, behind the
scenes that a lot of people are 

1241
01:06:18,560 --> 01:06:20,600
just aren't getting. 
The funny thing was is like I 

1242
01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:22,520
Eric says like how many 
followers you think he has? 

1243
01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:28,240
And I I say like 2000 and I was 
close his 1700 followers. 

1244
01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:31,480
And then we did RIP the clip and
we put it up. 

1245
01:06:31,640 --> 01:06:33,440
Don't say we. 
Don't say we. 

1246
01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:35,080
OK, Say you. 
Yeah. 

1247
01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:40,120
So then if you look at it now, 
like on our page, on our 

1248
01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:43,320
Twitter, it's got 26,000 views. 
You think Shrimp man knows that 

1249
01:06:43,320 --> 01:06:45,560
his videos like going viral? 
People are talking about it. 

1250
01:06:45,560 --> 01:06:47,640
Did you tag him? 
On Twitter you didn't tag him. 

1251
01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:50,120
He doesn't even have a Twitter. 
Maybe he doesn't so. 

1252
01:06:50,600 --> 01:06:52,720
He has a Twitter. 
I'm like. 

1253
01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:55,200
Well, so I captioned it all 
appears to be good between Noel 

1254
01:06:55,200 --> 01:06:57,040
Lyles and Kenny Benarik. 
And then there's other people 

1255
01:06:57,040 --> 01:06:59,000
just reading into the lines and 
be like. 

1256
01:06:59,280 --> 01:07:01,920
So but you didn't caption it 
with shrimp head? 

1257
01:07:02,080 --> 01:07:04,600
No. 
No for the no, he doesn't know. 

1258
01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:08,000
He has no idea, Yeah, no, he has
no idea that he captured gold 

1259
01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:10,280
spell voucher. 
Yeah. 

1260
01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:13,800
People, people in the comments 
are kind of like they're, 

1261
01:07:14,040 --> 01:07:16,360
they're like, Nah, they say. 
They're not good. 

1262
01:07:16,360 --> 01:07:18,240
They seem to be OK. 
Yeah, Cordial. 

1263
01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:20,680
This is cordial. 
I'll be now we're. 

1264
01:07:20,720 --> 01:07:24,040
Is it cordial? 
I I mean, I don't know what the 

1265
01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:28,280
the Noah and and Kenny thing. 
I can't imagine it's it's that 

1266
01:07:28,280 --> 01:07:34,200
good after after USA's, but I 
mean there it's not like it's 

1267
01:07:34,200 --> 01:07:37,280
certainly not on site. 
No could. 

1268
01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:39,200
Have been it could have that 
interaction could have been a 

1269
01:07:39,200 --> 01:07:43,400
lot worse, yeah, and it would. 
But it if shrimp had got it and 

1270
01:07:43,400 --> 01:07:45,840
it was a lot worse, that would 
have been fun. 

1271
01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:49,320
Yeah. 
Anyway, I hope. 

1272
01:07:49,360 --> 01:07:50,800
We I hope we see Shrimp Man 
again. 

1273
01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:52,720
We'll get a photo. 
Next time we'll get a photo. 

1274
01:07:52,720 --> 01:07:56,000
Next time. 
All right, women's 400m hurdles.

1275
01:07:56,560 --> 01:07:59,720
Because no surprises, no 
surprises, no surprises. 

1276
01:08:00,600 --> 01:08:03,800
Oh, the other thing real quick 
about just a 200 shout out to 

1277
01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:06,520
Gout Gout. 
I mean, we just lost Mitch, but 

1278
01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:08,520
this was Gout Gout's world 
championship. 

1279
01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:09,720
Debut. 
Yes. 

1280
01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:14,120
I mean, there's nobody who's a 
bigger gout gout fan than Mitch.

1281
01:08:14,520 --> 01:08:19,920
Yeah, loves the guy. 
I I think that he's. 

1282
01:08:19,960 --> 01:08:22,359
So dramatic in every picture. 
I love it. 

1283
01:08:22,600 --> 01:08:23,960
I love. 
It at the moment and like, I 

1284
01:08:23,960 --> 01:08:28,520
think he knows that he's got 
this global appeal to him. 

1285
01:08:28,520 --> 01:08:31,399
Yeah, yeah, even though he's not
proven at the global stage. 

1286
01:08:31,399 --> 01:08:35,279
Like, no, I mean this. 
This might just be us as 

1287
01:08:35,359 --> 01:08:40,120
Americans who see medalists 
competing regularly. 

1288
01:08:40,120 --> 01:08:45,279
Yeah, all the time. 
It's like I haven't quite bought

1289
01:08:45,279 --> 01:08:47,359
into the hype. 
No, no, no, no. 

1290
01:08:47,359 --> 01:08:54,359
Clips of him running against no.
No, no, no, no, no, no, all 

1291
01:08:54,560 --> 01:08:55,600
those. 
Clips of him. 

1292
01:08:56,560 --> 01:09:01,399
Fast. 
We're up against not that great 

1293
01:09:01,399 --> 01:09:04,040
competition and so it obviously 
it looks so much better. 

1294
01:09:04,279 --> 01:09:07,240
Exactly. 
Literally his last race before 

1295
01:09:07,240 --> 01:09:10,319
World Championships was like on 
a grass track against high 

1296
01:09:10,319 --> 01:09:12,840
school kids. 
Like it's he's just had, OK. 

1297
01:09:13,040 --> 01:09:14,880
It's because they're comparing 
him to Bolt. 

1298
01:09:15,520 --> 01:09:19,000
That's that's the thing, yeah. 
If if nobody had mentioned gout 

1299
01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:22,800
gout against Bolt, it's because 
that, oh, when Bolt was this 

1300
01:09:22,800 --> 01:09:27,240
age, gout gout is now faster. 
And it's just like, as soon as 

1301
01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:31,040
that happens, you start the 
comparison start. 

1302
01:09:31,319 --> 01:09:35,000
But if that never happened, 
you'd all just be just genuine 

1303
01:09:35,000 --> 01:09:36,920
fans. 
The name helps. 

1304
01:09:37,080 --> 01:09:41,479
The fact that he's so dominant 
against low level level 

1305
01:09:41,479 --> 01:09:44,560
competition, yeah, that helps. 
We saw the whole thing with with

1306
01:09:44,600 --> 01:09:48,640
Aryan too. 
Like Aryan faster than bolted 

1307
01:09:48,640 --> 01:09:51,240
at. 
When he was like 1617, yeah, 

1308
01:09:51,240 --> 01:09:52,560
yeah, yeah. 
As he was a kid. 

1309
01:09:52,640 --> 01:09:55,520
And you know, instantly those 
comparisons started. 

1310
01:09:55,520 --> 01:09:58,520
And so I think like with Gout 
Gout, he's got the name going 

1311
01:09:58,520 --> 01:09:59,960
for him, which is, which is. 
Great Gout. 

1312
01:09:59,960 --> 01:10:01,640
Gout. 
I mean gout. 

1313
01:10:02,280 --> 01:10:04,160
You guys know the the disease. 
Yeah. 

1314
01:10:04,840 --> 01:10:08,160
Not good. 
It's like you got, I mean, it's 

1315
01:10:08,160 --> 01:10:11,320
like catching like the Spike Lee
terms of like a name, but. 

1316
01:10:11,320 --> 01:10:14,760
Yeah, what's funny is. 
Usain Bolt is a is a name meant 

1317
01:10:14,760 --> 01:10:17,880
for track. 
What's Gout is a disease where 

1318
01:10:17,880 --> 01:10:19,440
you drink so much alcohol that 
you can't. 

1319
01:10:19,600 --> 01:10:22,000
You've got no sensation in your 
big toe. 

1320
01:10:23,360 --> 01:10:27,720
Doesn't really. 
It's not ideal for 100m dashes. 

1321
01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:30,240
But think of this, that's 
actually not even how you 

1322
01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:33,360
pronounce his name. 
It's actually like goat goat or 

1323
01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:34,440
something like that. 
There's a different 

1324
01:10:34,440 --> 01:10:37,760
pronunciation, but he chose. 
Well then he's got he chose to 

1325
01:10:37,760 --> 01:10:40,400
PR to absolutely hammer home 
it's goat. 

1326
01:10:40,440 --> 01:10:43,200
Goat. 
It was because. 

1327
01:10:43,680 --> 01:10:44,840
Now don't don't goat. 
Me too. 

1328
01:10:44,840 --> 01:10:47,080
It's I I'm not getting the 
pronunciation. 

1329
01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:50,040
Right, yeah, he said. 
It's. 

1330
01:10:50,400 --> 01:10:51,920
I wish Mint was here. 
He would he. 

1331
01:10:51,920 --> 01:10:53,720
Would like yeah. 
So. 

1332
01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:56,360
He's listening right now. 
He's like, he's like, he said. 

1333
01:10:56,360 --> 01:10:59,320
He's like, I'm serious. 
Footsteps down the hall. 

1334
01:10:59,440 --> 01:11:03,000
It just starts to running as. 
Soon as the gout gout name sort 

1335
01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:06,440
of taking off, that's what ran 
in the Australian media. 

1336
01:11:06,680 --> 01:11:09,840
Even like there's interviews 
with Gaut Goud's father, who 

1337
01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:11,600
says, like, that's not how you 
say, yeah, yeah, yeah. 

1338
01:11:11,840 --> 01:11:15,240
Yeah, and his father's father. 
So we don't know. 

1339
01:11:15,280 --> 01:11:18,400
We still even after. 
After everything I think Gaut 

1340
01:11:18,440 --> 01:11:20,800
Goud just said. 
Yet like you can call me Gout 

1341
01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:22,000
gout. 
Yeah, just like, call me that 

1342
01:11:22,000 --> 01:11:23,840
because he he was probably just 
like, it's not worth it. 

1343
01:11:24,560 --> 01:11:26,960
I gave you, Yeah, his game. 
I just did a whole press 

1344
01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:29,440
conference, yeah. 
I actually think he did like he 

1345
01:11:29,440 --> 01:11:30,520
went out in like, yeah, that was
the. 

1346
01:11:30,640 --> 01:11:33,000
Other things he was like when 
when Gout gout, he's only ever 

1347
01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:35,600
done one podcast appearance and 
it was on the the. 

1348
01:11:35,760 --> 01:11:38,200
Beyond the records with Noah and
yeah, all them, yeah. 

1349
01:11:38,200 --> 01:11:39,800
They're calling him gout, gout 
to his face. 

1350
01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:41,800
Like I feel like he would have 
corrected him. 

1351
01:11:41,800 --> 01:11:43,160
Exactly. 
And I think they even asked 

1352
01:11:43,160 --> 01:11:44,160
about this. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 

1353
01:11:44,680 --> 01:11:46,000
Where the the clip is? 
It was. 

1354
01:11:46,040 --> 01:11:48,480
Like that was where he finalized
like, listen, call me gout, 

1355
01:11:48,480 --> 01:11:49,440
gout. 
And I'm good with it. 

1356
01:11:49,440 --> 01:11:51,480
Yeah. 
I mean, he, I figure he's just 

1357
01:11:51,760 --> 01:11:53,240
it. 
It rolls off the tongue a little

1358
01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:55,040
bit better. 
It's like, you know, yeah. 

1359
01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:57,480
It's but also it's like now 
people, a lot of people know 

1360
01:11:57,480 --> 01:11:59,200
him. 
So it's just tough to do a hard 

1361
01:11:59,200 --> 01:12:02,800
pivot and say, no, it's actually
not gal gal. 

1362
01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:04,880
We're like, well. 
It's the same thing with Mau 

1363
01:12:04,880 --> 01:12:06,640
Farah. 
Like Mau Farah, like post 

1364
01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:09,840
retirement, he's like actually 
like my name is like Hussein or 

1365
01:12:09,840 --> 01:12:12,400
something like that and like. 
Well, that's OK. 

1366
01:12:12,480 --> 01:12:19,440
Well, you know, that's just OK. 
That's different because, you 

1367
01:12:19,440 --> 01:12:27,840
know, you know, well, I could 
have, you know, do you know what

1368
01:12:27,840 --> 01:12:34,640
I mean Exactly, You know, I know
exactly so. 

1369
01:12:35,640 --> 01:12:39,040
And that's what's a bit 
different with goat. 

1370
01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:43,280
Goat, which is how you should 
say, which is because I was how 

1371
01:12:43,320 --> 01:12:43,920
you was down. 
Goat. 

1372
01:12:44,480 --> 01:12:46,080
Goat. 
No, not if he wants me to call 

1373
01:12:46,080 --> 01:12:46,680
him cow. 
Cow. 

1374
01:12:48,040 --> 01:12:52,000
Yeah, look, I'm learning new 
stuff every single second in 

1375
01:12:52,000 --> 01:12:56,720
this, in this last 20 minutes. 
Did you know MO's real name is 

1376
01:12:56,720 --> 01:12:58,800
Hussein? 
I knew it was, but there's never

1377
01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:01,720
a point in time where he was 
like, hey, look, don't call me 

1378
01:13:01,720 --> 01:13:03,680
MO. 
It's the real name's Hussein. 

1379
01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:05,920
Yeah. 
Well, all right. 

1380
01:13:05,920 --> 01:13:10,280
So the expectations, yeah, the 
the expectations for got got, 

1381
01:13:10,360 --> 01:13:14,240
Yeah, I mean, huge media scrum. 
There's such a big. 

1382
01:13:14,560 --> 01:13:17,520
Light on him. 
I just don't get it and it's 

1383
01:13:17,520 --> 01:13:19,560
like. 
Listen, he is not. 

1384
01:13:19,560 --> 01:13:23,840
He is even in this heat, he 
didn't look amazing. 

1385
01:13:23,840 --> 01:13:25,760
Now, granted, he was running 
with Brian Lavelle, who ran 

1386
01:13:25,760 --> 01:13:29,800
19-8, but it's like, I think 
people are expecting him to make

1387
01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:31,360
the final and. 
Potentially. 

1388
01:13:31,360 --> 01:13:33,640
Metal, potentially metal. 
It's a challenge to go in. 

1389
01:13:33,640 --> 01:13:35,080
On them. 
You think he'll make the final? 

1390
01:13:35,240 --> 01:13:40,200
I I I I don't think so. 
I wouldn't be surprised if he 

1391
01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:41,600
does, but like I, I just don't 
you. 

1392
01:13:41,600 --> 01:13:44,680
Wouldn't bet on it. 
Yeah, yeah, like and even the 

1393
01:13:44,680 --> 01:13:47,040
whole thing was he went to the 
Monaco Diamond League and they 

1394
01:13:47,040 --> 01:13:48,800
created a separate race for him.
I. 

1395
01:13:48,840 --> 01:13:49,960
Thought that was the dumbest 
thing. 

1396
01:13:49,960 --> 01:13:52,640
Yeah, it was like literally AU 
23 race. 

1397
01:13:52,720 --> 01:13:55,280
Just for him, just for him, he 
wouldn't race against. 

1398
01:13:55,800 --> 01:14:00,360
Noah and Let's Seeley. 
Let's Seeley is under 23 like 

1399
01:14:00,360 --> 01:14:02,720
somebody he didn't. 
Run out. 

1400
01:14:03,160 --> 01:14:06,560
Let's see. 
Like you mind, I do qualify for 

1401
01:14:06,560 --> 01:14:10,360
this heat and they're like, no, 
no, you don't at all. 

1402
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:16,040
It's kind of wild that like how 
much they've hyped up gout gout.

1403
01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:20,960
And I think it's part of that is
like, OK, savouring this for now

1404
01:14:20,960 --> 01:14:24,840
because like the potential could
be there for him to be the star 

1405
01:14:24,840 --> 01:14:28,360
of the, you know, 2032 Olympics.
Like that's what it's that's. 

1406
01:14:28,360 --> 01:14:31,640
Probably what it is, right? 
He's yeah, exactly. 

1407
01:14:31,640 --> 01:14:34,360
Yeah, I guess Mac just said like
he's like our, he's like their 

1408
01:14:34,360 --> 01:14:36,080
Quincy Wilson. 
Yeah. 

1409
01:14:36,640 --> 01:14:42,600
Except for the fact that like I,
I don't know but but the the 

1410
01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:45,080
argument with Quincy is that 
Quincy proved himself against. 

1411
01:14:45,400 --> 01:14:50,360
Pros and not even just at USA is
like he ran at Melrose at like 

1412
01:14:50,520 --> 01:14:53,920
you know, New Balance or I'm 
sorry, whatever the New Balance 

1413
01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:55,400
indoor Grand Prix or whatever 
like he. 

1414
01:14:55,400 --> 01:14:57,680
Threw himself in the in the ring
against the pros, and I feel 

1415
01:14:57,680 --> 01:15:00,680
like there's just been a 
conservation of Gout Gout's star

1416
01:15:00,680 --> 01:15:02,680
power. 
Like it's just like, OK, we have

1417
01:15:02,680 --> 01:15:05,440
this shine on him, but like, 
let's not wear it off until the 

1418
01:15:05,440 --> 01:15:08,640
World Championships because we 
don't like at Monaco Diamond 

1419
01:15:08,640 --> 01:15:11,040
League, he probably could have 
finished third or fourth. 

1420
01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:13,160
Yeah, absolutely. 
A little bit further distant. 

1421
01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:15,600
And then people have been like, 
OK, maybe our expectations for 

1422
01:15:15,600 --> 01:15:18,960
this guy aren't gonna be as high
for the World Championships, but

1423
01:15:18,960 --> 01:15:21,800
we can milk this thing until 
Tokyo. 

1424
01:15:21,840 --> 01:15:23,440
Yeah. 
And then, you know, from there 

1425
01:15:23,440 --> 01:15:26,560
it's like, OK, yeah, his time 
will come in, you know, in the 

1426
01:15:26,560 --> 01:15:28,560
near future. 
It's just not now. 

1427
01:15:28,560 --> 01:15:31,560
But let's drive them the hype 
around him for as long as 

1428
01:15:31,560 --> 01:15:33,520
possible. 
That is the only reason I could 

1429
01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:36,520
see them, you know, adding that 
U23 race. 

1430
01:15:37,680 --> 01:15:41,920
Yeah, I mean, like it's rare 
that probably like I side with 

1431
01:15:41,920 --> 01:15:44,560
like Aaron Brown on on things 
occasionally. 

1432
01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:46,640
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
He's. 100% right on. 

1433
01:15:46,640 --> 01:15:50,000
Like just the preposterous 
nature of Monaco having that 

1434
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:52,440
race that was just for him. 
Embarrassing, embarrassing. 

1435
01:15:52,680 --> 01:15:55,120
And now tomorrow are the 
semifinals. 

1436
01:15:55,280 --> 01:15:57,320
He's going to have to race Brian
Lavelle again. 

1437
01:15:57,320 --> 01:15:58,760
So he just raced him. 
He's racing. 

1438
01:15:58,760 --> 01:16:00,800
Let's see lay. 
He's going to be in that in that

1439
01:16:00,800 --> 01:16:02,000
race. 
And you have Courtney Lindsay. 

1440
01:16:02,240 --> 01:16:05,360
So now he has a real race. 
And how many go through this 

1441
01:16:05,360 --> 01:16:07,720
he's. 
Crazy top two in each heat. 

1442
01:16:07,720 --> 01:16:11,040
So, so now you're talking about 
Brian Lavelle just ran 19/8. 

1443
01:16:11,200 --> 01:16:13,040
Let's Seeley. 
Just you know, we know what 

1444
01:16:13,040 --> 01:16:16,440
let's Seeley does the Olympic 
champion and Courtney Lindsay, 

1445
01:16:16,440 --> 01:16:20,400
he's run 19 seven. 
He's run 197PBS198 this year 

1446
01:16:20,640 --> 01:16:22,080
like. 
Who else is in there? 

1447
01:16:22,080 --> 01:16:25,000
Is there anyone else? 
Who's he's just switched heats 

1448
01:16:26,280 --> 01:16:28,360
you can do. 
That outside of that, those are 

1449
01:16:28,360 --> 01:16:29,960
the guys those. 
Guys, you guys heard about the 

1450
01:16:29,960 --> 01:16:31,440
800? 
You can switch heats. 

1451
01:16:31,440 --> 01:16:34,320
Yeah, they they reshuffle. 
Exactly, they should reshuffle 

1452
01:16:34,360 --> 01:16:35,120
gout out of that. 
Heat. 

1453
01:16:35,120 --> 01:16:39,560
I mean, they'll probably make a 
separate. 40 for him 2323 that. 

1454
01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:43,680
Would be fantastic. 
Because Latilia is like me too. 

1455
01:16:43,680 --> 01:16:44,760
Yeah, me too. 
Yeah. 

1456
01:16:45,040 --> 01:16:48,160
It's like, it's ridiculous. 
So yeah, I mean, if he makes a 

1457
01:16:48,160 --> 01:16:49,680
final, obviously that'd be huge,
but. 

1458
01:16:49,680 --> 01:16:51,400
Like we will be eating crow, 
Yeah. 

1459
01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:53,960
But like, people should not be 
surprised. 

1460
01:16:53,960 --> 01:16:58,040
I'll eat the crow. 
I mean, shit, I've eaten crazy 

1461
01:16:58,040 --> 01:17:00,280
stuff over here. 
I'll eat the crow. 

1462
01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:07,040
Crow, Shashimi. 
All right. 

1463
01:17:07,320 --> 01:17:11,280
Anyway, OK, 200 that that's the 
men's 200. 

1464
01:17:11,280 --> 01:17:14,640
Women's 200 we we covered 
already all right of women's 

1465
01:17:14,640 --> 01:17:17,000
400. 
Hurdles and gold we're. 

1466
01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:17,600
Good. 
Delilah was. 

1467
01:17:17,600 --> 01:17:19,080
Yeah, because Delilah was in 
the. 

1468
01:17:19,080 --> 01:17:21,360
Heat in the heat. 
I think that yeah, we're, we're 

1469
01:17:21,360 --> 01:17:23,000
all rooting for Delilah, but 
it's like. 

1470
01:17:23,240 --> 01:17:24,720
Today. 
We like basically saw 

1471
01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:25,920
unfortunately what's gonna 
happen. 

1472
01:17:26,440 --> 01:17:28,840
All right, men's 400 hurdle 
final. 

1473
01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:36,760
That's the one that like already
the Instagram commenters are 

1474
01:17:36,760 --> 01:17:40,440
like, we need Eric's take on 
this, on what? 

1475
01:17:40,800 --> 01:17:44,040
On what? 
Men's 400 hurdles. 

1476
01:17:44,560 --> 01:17:46,280
All the big dogs make it 
through. 

1477
01:17:46,320 --> 01:17:47,440
Everybody makes it through and 
so. 

1478
01:17:47,440 --> 01:17:51,720
Then I get alerted to the fact 
that from Anderson because like 

1479
01:17:51,720 --> 01:17:55,280
we got some interesting comments
in the mix zone and I was like 

1480
01:17:55,280 --> 01:17:56,280
what? 
What is it? 

1481
01:17:56,320 --> 01:18:03,160
And so then he tells me that Rye
was told this is like a game of 

1482
01:18:03,160 --> 01:18:08,120
telephone at this point, that 
Carson Warholm was asked about 

1483
01:18:08,120 --> 01:18:12,000
Allison Dos Santos and Rye 
Benjamin's showdown and getting 

1484
01:18:12,000 --> 01:18:16,800
them in the final again. 
And I have the clip pulled up. 

1485
01:18:17,200 --> 01:18:22,040
I'll play the audio because you 
kind of just have to hear. 

1486
01:18:22,040 --> 01:18:27,400
This is just a clip of of Rye's 
response to what happened, so 

1487
01:18:27,400 --> 01:18:29,440
let me see if I could pull this 
together. 

1488
01:18:29,800 --> 01:18:43,280
Yeah. 
Yeah, he said that for real. 

1489
01:18:43,280 --> 01:18:46,320
Yeah, well, I'm black, so we 
already done. 

1490
01:18:53,080 --> 01:18:57,400
OK, so to recap, I guess if it 
wasn't clear on the audio that 

1491
01:18:57,400 --> 01:19:01,240
came through, Carson says we'll 
see if it turns into a good old 

1492
01:19:01,240 --> 01:19:03,120
fashioned Dick measuring 
contest. 

1493
01:19:03,440 --> 01:19:07,160
And then Rye responds by saying,
well, I'm black, so we already 

1494
01:19:07,160 --> 01:19:10,200
know how that one goes in a Dick
measuring contest. 

1495
01:19:11,920 --> 01:19:14,880
So Rye's like I've got the I got
a big fucking Dick. 

1496
01:19:16,560 --> 01:19:19,760
Alright, if you are Carson 
Carson with kids in the Carson. 

1497
01:19:20,360 --> 01:19:22,040
Carson said. 
Carson said. 

1498
01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:25,400
If we'll see if they want to 
turn it into a Dick measuring 

1499
01:19:25,400 --> 01:19:28,200
contest and if they behave. 
Yeah, I don't get the. 

1500
01:19:28,200 --> 01:19:30,080
Last what? 
So what does he mean? 

1501
01:19:31,440 --> 01:19:34,440
What does he mean by Do they 
want to turn it into a Dick? 

1502
01:19:35,000 --> 01:19:36,640
So I. 
Guess the more interesting part 

1503
01:19:36,640 --> 01:19:39,600
of this is will they behave? 
Yeah, that was like the one 

1504
01:19:39,600 --> 01:19:40,960
piece that's. 
What if they don't? 

1505
01:19:41,360 --> 01:19:44,280
Well, no, I mean what does he 
mean by we'll see if they want 

1506
01:19:44,280 --> 01:19:45,480
to turn it into a Dick 
measuring. 

1507
01:19:45,480 --> 01:19:48,320
Let's let's even take out the if
they behave part. 

1508
01:19:48,880 --> 01:19:50,480
What is the? 
What does? 

1509
01:19:50,840 --> 01:19:53,360
Isn't, isn't. 
Everything is a Dick measuring 

1510
01:19:53,360 --> 01:19:57,680
contest in this stuff where it's
like we're just like, what does 

1511
01:19:57,680 --> 01:20:00,760
he mean by what does he mean by 
it? 

1512
01:20:01,400 --> 01:20:02,880
We're trying to see who could 
run the fastest, right? 

1513
01:20:02,880 --> 01:20:05,680
Yeah, yeah, exactly. 
I guess we could like try to see

1514
01:20:05,680 --> 01:20:08,680
who's got the biggest penis. 
We're trying to see if we can 

1515
01:20:08,680 --> 01:20:10,360
get over the hurdles the 
fastest. 

1516
01:20:12,360 --> 01:20:15,120
I guess I'm just. 
What? 

1517
01:20:15,400 --> 01:20:16,640
Chris Robinson. 
Yeah, Chris Robinson. 

1518
01:20:17,480 --> 01:20:18,800
Would have been a very. 
Interesting. 

1519
01:20:18,800 --> 01:20:21,240
He would have been interesting. 
This conversation, this is what 

1520
01:20:21,520 --> 01:20:23,560
this is. 
Where Chris Robinson's like, he 

1521
01:20:23,600 --> 01:20:26,400
just slid up right next to to 
ride Benjamin. 

1522
01:20:26,400 --> 01:20:28,640
And he's like, you know, I'm 
black too. 

1523
01:20:31,200 --> 01:20:34,560
Come on. 
I think Carsten actually waited 

1524
01:20:34,560 --> 01:20:36,720
until Chris was eliminated 
because he. 

1525
01:20:36,760 --> 01:20:38,800
Yeah, he knew what Chris was 
talking. 

1526
01:20:38,800 --> 01:20:41,400
Yeah. 
And so he was like, all right, 

1527
01:20:41,400 --> 01:20:42,960
that guy's gone now. 
I can actually. 

1528
01:20:42,960 --> 01:20:45,640
He goes, well, I know what that 
guy's working with first hand, 

1529
01:20:47,960 --> 01:20:52,320
so like, I want no part with in 
that guy's penis, but I'm down 

1530
01:20:52,440 --> 01:20:57,360
to at least roll the dice with 
the others further. 

1531
01:20:57,960 --> 01:21:02,800
So funny that Ryan said, well, 
I'm black, so you already know 

1532
01:21:02,800 --> 01:21:06,880
how that's going to work. 
Yeah, they go like the, the, the

1533
01:21:06,880 --> 01:21:09,320
look on the faces of the 
interviewers when I was like, 

1534
01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:12,960
well, I'm black and like. 
I'll be honest, I was. 

1535
01:21:12,960 --> 01:21:15,920
I was the only black guy there, 
and I was. 

1536
01:21:16,400 --> 01:21:21,920
You stab him up so hard you're 
you're like, Yep. 

1537
01:21:28,680 --> 01:21:35,600
Yeah, like I know this is First 
off, this is this race is so 

1538
01:21:35,600 --> 01:21:41,000
like the rye Benjamin Carson. 
I'm like we'll we'll bring in 

1539
01:21:41,200 --> 01:21:45,160
we'll bring in Allison. 
But it's like that was so good 

1540
01:21:45,160 --> 01:21:49,200
without even bringing up their 
like a battle of how big their 

1541
01:21:49,200 --> 01:21:52,760
penises are. 
Was already like one of the best

1542
01:21:52,760 --> 01:21:59,320
races of the meat and now it's 
like how big's your cock so good

1543
01:21:59,440 --> 01:22:00,880
they wouldn't really need to 
happen. 

1544
01:22:00,880 --> 01:22:04,720
Is now Allison's got to enter 
the mix and talk and say like 

1545
01:22:04,960 --> 01:22:07,880
I'm here, like look, Carson's 
white. 

1546
01:22:10,160 --> 01:22:12,600
I'm ready to I'm ready to let 
the thing dangle. 

1547
01:22:14,200 --> 01:22:17,120
I'm having something like too 
much fun with this. 

1548
01:22:17,720 --> 01:22:20,200
This whole this this whole 
question I guess. 

1549
01:22:20,280 --> 01:22:23,360
The question now is do does 
everyone just split shorts? 

1550
01:22:23,360 --> 01:22:27,200
Oh yeah, I'm like yes, no, of 
course they will at some point 

1551
01:22:27,200 --> 01:22:33,280
need to show their penises. 
I mean the the comment section 

1552
01:22:33,280 --> 01:22:35,880
on this thing is is is. 
Just of course. 

1553
01:22:35,920 --> 01:22:37,400
I mean, of course it's so. 
Funny. 

1554
01:22:37,400 --> 01:22:39,800
Going to be a hard race. 
We'll see who comes out ahead. 

1555
01:22:39,800 --> 01:22:43,560
Yeah, yeah, let's see what else 
people have said. 

1556
01:22:43,960 --> 01:22:46,160
Which one of them will rise to 
the occasion? 

1557
01:22:49,440 --> 01:22:51,040
What else? 
People are saying it's good for 

1558
01:22:51,040 --> 01:22:53,160
the sport. 
It, it's so fun. 

1559
01:22:53,160 --> 01:22:55,040
I mean, it's, it's, it's so 
funny. 

1560
01:22:55,040 --> 01:22:57,520
They're going to go balls out in
the final. 

1561
01:22:58,360 --> 01:22:59,840
Good on. 
I love rye. 

1562
01:22:59,840 --> 01:23:01,680
Just having a sense of humor 
about it, like it. 

1563
01:23:01,920 --> 01:23:03,360
I mean, it's all. 
Rye commented. 

1564
01:23:03,360 --> 01:23:05,920
He said pause. 
Yeah, no, it's, it's funny. 

1565
01:23:05,920 --> 01:23:10,600
Like it it's they're so like 
like they know each other so 

1566
01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:13,000
well, braces each other all the 
time. 

1567
01:23:13,040 --> 01:23:16,160
I I love like just the adding a 
new mix to it, like having fun 

1568
01:23:16,160 --> 01:23:19,680
in the in the media zone. 
This is what I'm like. 

1569
01:23:19,680 --> 01:23:22,640
God, I wish I was like, I wish I
was in the content creator zone 

1570
01:23:22,640 --> 01:23:25,920
for this. 
I'm like, fuck, I would have 

1571
01:23:25,920 --> 01:23:29,840
eaten this up. 
No, I'm like yo-yo. 

1572
01:23:30,480 --> 01:23:31,640
You would have what? 
What? 

1573
01:23:32,600 --> 01:23:40,440
Yo, hold on, yo, I would have 
gobbled this shit up but yeah, 

1574
01:23:40,440 --> 01:23:44,240
it is so funny. 
So the someone said now right, 

1575
01:23:44,240 --> 01:23:50,960
better win after all this. 
I mean, it's going to be tough. 

1576
01:23:51,560 --> 01:23:54,520
He's also got a big ass Dick to 
drag around the track. 

1577
01:23:55,720 --> 01:24:00,880
Carson doesn't have that. 
He's all in love. 

1578
01:24:00,960 --> 01:24:03,840
You drowned. 
All right, all right. 

1579
01:24:04,120 --> 01:24:05,760
OK. 
Well, you, you could have sent 

1580
01:24:05,760 --> 01:24:09,720
me home to bed, Chris, but you 
purposely said Eric would like 

1581
01:24:09,720 --> 01:24:13,200
this. 
I knew that was coming all 

1582
01:24:13,280 --> 01:24:14,800
right. 
All right, well. 

1583
01:24:18,240 --> 01:24:19,760

There's gonna be some reviews, 

1585
01:24:22,240 --> 01:24:24,240
Max. 
Max got the bad mouth. 

1586
01:24:24,520 --> 01:24:27,560
Yeah, I know. 
It's like Eric had very astute 

1587
01:24:27,560 --> 01:24:31,840
points when it comes to the the 
men's 400 hurdles. 

1588
01:24:32,560 --> 01:24:37,440
Like, yeah, totally. 
Like back was really rude. 

1589
01:24:38,600 --> 01:24:42,680
He said he said the F word. 
One he said the F word ones they

1590
01:24:42,680 --> 01:24:46,400
insinuated Carson has smaller 
penis than right Benjamin. 

1591
01:24:47,080 --> 01:24:50,240
