Bam. Good morning. I, I, I, I don’t see the, uh, I don’t see the thong song even as an option. I don’t even see it as an option in this layout. I don’t know what’s going on. I’m taking up the whole window this morning. Something’s different. Something’s different. Here I am. Good morning. I was thinking, uh, I used to be freaked. Oh, let me see. Maybe I can tweak something over here. I used to freak out, uh, in the early days, back in the day. What if my guest didn’t show up? And now, basically that is the, uh, that’s the show. Those are the show. Here’s, here’s the Josh and Savon show. Okay? Not that here’s, uh, waap. Pza. Definitely not that. Uh, this is the, oh shit, I forgot to do Rumble this morning. Okay. Error number one already in the books. Yeah. I used to freak out when shit would go sideways. Now it just seems like it’s the norm for me. Um, I haven’t checked the comments yet to see if you guys can even hear me here. Oh, here it is. Okay. Song, song, song, song. I, I need a peptide song. See A Peptides California peptide song to honor my sponsor. And Paper Street Coffee
And Birth Fit. I betcha birth fit. Never thought that they would be, uh, being talked about while the thong song plays in the background. Man. Oh man. What are we gonna do? What are we gonna do to protect these kids? I dunno, if protect is the right word, what are we gonna do to raise these kids? Right? What is going on? I’m gonna ask Greg a hard question as soon as he comes on today. If he does, come on. I don’t expect anyone to come on. I don’t expect any guests to, uh, fulfill their obligations. They’re always welcome to come on my show. The invite is out there. I really hope Sarah Sigmund’s daughter makes it tomorrow. But if she doesn’t know hard feelings, it’s not a big deal. It is not a big deal at all. I’m met very, very easy, uh, friend. Confident I can hold my own. Life’s good uhoh.
Ooh, not again. Uh, where are we? Uh, Jake Chapman. Chevy. I’ll have to miss today’s life. However, I’d like to know Greg’s thoughts on Mal situation. The thing is, is he, I would have to explain it to him. And how would I explain it? A young girl who was supposed to win the games pulled out at the last minute. Any thoughts on that? A Hillary’s hypothesis. A younger athlete suffering psychologically. What does that mean to suffer psychologically? That means when the, um, voices in your head get, uh, too loud. Like you have thoughts that are too loud, like you’re just chilling. You take a bong rip, and then all of a sudden you have this thought in your head is someone, is, is my iPhone watching me? Is my iPhone watching me? And you can’t get away from that thought. And it’s too loud. Is that, that’s mental illness.
That’s, um, I’m not happy. I’m not Well, I’m wasting my life. I’m wasting my life. And you can’t get away from that thought. That’s, that’s mental illness. That’s the, the, the, the thoughts that are getting loud instead of like being something you’re just watching and able to tap into or not tap into. They’re just, they become so loud and you can’t accept them for their loudness. I don’t, oh, shit. The phone’s not even hooked up. Hold on, Mars. Well, that’s good. I’m glad he tested this out. Um, let’s get this thing hooked up. Let’s get this thing hooked up. Hold on. Mars, uh, your roader is now discoverable. Uh, let’s go over to, uh, Bluetooth settings, man. What, what a great show. What a great mess. Uh, let’s click that. Um, no, let’s click that roader connected. There he is. Oh, you’re, Hey. Good morning. Good morning.
Greg Glassman:
How are you today?
Sevan Matossian:
I’m, I’m fucking good. I feel good. You know, I’m excited. Uh, I’m back in my routine. I love being here in my studio. And we learned how, uh, something to, uh, last night. There’s, there’s a guy who’s been helping me out with my show. We’re gonna, we were supposed to redesign the whole studio yesterday, but instead we worked on some technical stuff that’s gonna allow me to get better recordings for better video on, um, for like, uh, social media posts and YouTube and not whatnot. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>. So we got that fixed you
Greg Glassman:
By always, always refining. Yeah. You’re like moving up the Wier board every day.
Sevan Matossian:
Yeah. I th it, it feels like that I’m pumped. I’m really pumped. I had two shots of espresso. I got my paper street coffee. My bun went in on the first try. How are you? Uh, hello? Hello? Marsh. Oh, shit. I dis Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. You got Hello?
Greg Glassman:
Yeah, there we are. You
Sevan Matossian:
Got disconnected.
Greg Glassman:
I wanted to get this in real quick before Greg called
Sevan Matossian:
In. That’s what your mom said, <laugh>. No, no. Sorry. That’s what I said to your mom.
Greg Glassman:
All right. That’s good.
Sevan Matossian:
I do not let your mom peg me. I don’t care if that was a, that was not a Freudian slip.
Greg Glassman:
That’s okay. My, my mom, uh, my mom’s not Danielle, Brandon, so that’s, oh,
Sevan Matossian:
Hey. You think she p her dude?
Greg Glassman:
No, there’s somebody, Danielle Callback. Hey, I’ve been wanting Greg to just, if he knows anything about La Sierra, uh, pe
Sevan Matossian:
Oh, that is a great, that is a great question. Uh, describe La
Greg Glassman:
Sierra Physical Education program from the sixties. Coach Stan Carmichael, California.
Sevan Matossian:
Tell me the guy’s name again. Stan what?
Greg Glassman:
Stan Lati.
Sevan Matossian:
Lati. Uh, I, I know Greg got
Greg Glassman:
California. Go ahead.
Sevan Matossian:
Um, I’m gonna Google it real quick just so I can talk a little more. Uh, let me, uh, law Sierra High School. You don’t wanna know how I spelled Sierra. What? Sometimes I do the dumbest things
Greg Glassman:
Two Rs. Yeah.
Sevan Matossian:
Right. I, dude, I put a, don’t tell anyone. I, I start the first time I, I wrote it. I wrote it. Sarah, c e r a. I know how to spell Sierra. I just, I just think weird sometimes. I, I just don’t hear Sierra
Greg Glassman:
Armenian. Sometimes it comes, sometimes goofs it
Sevan Matossian:
Up. Glossier High School. Stan, uh, Ladi.
Greg Glassman:
Yeah. I dunno if you’ll find a lot on Stan Ladi. If you Google Stan Ladi. The program’s more famous than he’s, but yeah.
Sevan Matossian:
Uh,
Greg Glassman:
And I know I talked to one of the guys who did the documentary. I’m not sure if, uh, I don’t remember his name, but they did a documentary about it. I dunno if he has any thoughts on it. I don’t have any specific questions other than I just think it’s fascinating and wondered, uh, you know, why that program got squashed so fast? I mean, I have my suspicions, but, uh, JFK was trying to push it like crazy across the us but it would’ve been too much for a public
Sevan Matossian:
School. The insanely difficult standard of history’s hardest PE class. Um, that’s one of the articles. Uh, I do know that, um, there was a, I’ve, I’ve heard Greg talk about a time when he would go to, and I’m sure he’ll talk about it. Um, if and when he jumps on this morning where, um, uh, he would go to parks and that’s where he would train. That’s where he got, uh, cut his teeth. Is that the term? That’s what becoming gymnasts.
Greg Glassman:
Boths, yeah. Calisthenics, gymnast stuff. And, and, uh, rigs and,
Sevan Matossian:
Yeah. He said there’d be steel rings just hanging in a park. Right. And the same way kids gathered at like a, a, a, you know, like at, um, some curb they’re not supposed to be grinding on. Kids would gather at this, at these steel rings and take turns doing stupid crazy shit.
Greg Glassman:
Yeah. Any, any question? Just of the old school PE class? Because like PE class in the early 19 hundreds, sometimes pretty hardcore too. Like they had those wooden dowel things on the wall where kids would do like, uh, I dunno, Ettes or whatever you’d call them.
Sevan Matossian:
You mean pegboard? Pegboard?
Greg Glassman:
I don’t know. You’re really talking about a lot of pegs this far, aren’t you?
Sevan Matossian:
Peg pegboard. Pegboard. I was huge. I was huge in the, uh, oh, shit. They even, uh, this website I’m on even shows you what the standards are to get the different color. Are you on coloreds on
Greg Glassman:
Documentary or website or like on Lean Berets website?
Sevan Matossian:
Uh, I’m on Get Action aom. Uh oh. Okay.
Greg Glassman:
Oh, you’re manual there.
Sevan Matossian:
But look at, um, they have intermediate is 10 pullups, 32 pushups, 12 bar dips, 60 sit ups, standing broad jump up six, nine. And then blue Advanced is 14 pullups. 48 pushups. Wow. 48 pushups. That’s solid.
Greg Glassman:
Well, it, like, it goes all the way up to like gold. Like they’re color coded, which is like the interesting thing.
Sevan Matossian:
I think Blue is the highest here. It’s called the Ultimate Athlete. But you’re saying he’s one above like martial arts?
Greg Glassman:
Yeah. Yeah. I think, I think gold is the highest. And I think it’s kinda like martial arts where they start off at one color and then they, their way up. Just like, you know, white belt to belt, purple belt, all that stuff. And it, I guess, really motivated the kids in school and it completely changed the way they interacted. There was like, virtually no stuff like that. Kids had outlet. So,
Sevan Matossian:
Hey, listen to some of these things. For the blue, uh, 34 pullups. That’s pretty, that’s solid. I’ve never been able to do 34 strict pullups. And that’s my bread and butter. A bar. Dips 52. I don’t think I’ve ever been able to do 52 bar dips. I used to be pretty good. Those handstand pushups. 50. I wonder if that’s unbroken. Oh, yeah. First you had to earn. Oh, no. The gold trunks were like the very first ones.
Greg Glassman:
Oh, okay.
Sevan Matossian:
The me, the median and ceiling substandards within the blue level are categorized, uh, as their own colors of purple and gold. To test for the navy blue trunks, first you had to earn your gold trunks. Listen to this. Uh, uh, you had to do, uh, a one armed burpees. One armed burpees. I don’t think I’ve ever even seen those. Have you seen those?
Greg Glassman:
I have not seen those. You had
Sevan Matossian:
To do, uh, 26 and 30 seconds. Dude, that’s dude.
Greg Glassman:
Have you seen the documentary yourself?
Sevan Matossian:
No.
Greg Glassman:
No. Well, if you ever wanna watch it sometime while you’re on the, uh, elliptical, you go for it.
Sevan Matossian:
I, I, I, I saw what you did there. Uh, uh, pegboard five trips. That’s a lot. Uh, handstand hold 40, uh, five seconds. I’m assuming that’s free. Manlift and carry. You ready for this Logan? Carry your carry. Another dude or some chick? Five miles.
Greg Glassman:
Five miles. Yeah. That’s like the top one.
Sevan Matossian:
That’s, that’s, yeah. If you wanna get the blue, uh, the, the mile. The mile run. You ready for this? Five 15?
Greg Glassman:
5 35. 15 0 5, 0 5 15.
Sevan Matossian:
Uh, five mile jog. You just had to finish. Um, you had to swim a mile in the prone position. I’m, I’m assuming that means that’s freestyle, right? Oh, no, no, no. That just means any of the strokes, right? Freestyle breast, doggy paddle. Um, one mile. I,
Greg Glassman:
But it’s like the, it’s like idealized as like the perfect system, and it’s just gonna be almost impossible to ever implement widespread.
Sevan Matossian:
Listen to this one, bro. You ready?
Greg Glassman:
Yeah. Roll
Sevan Matossian:
Float with arms and ankles tied for six minutes.
Greg Glassman:
Ooh. Like navy shit, dude.
Sevan Matossian:
Uh, stay afloat in deep water and vertical position. Use of arms and legs permitted within eight foot circle for two hours. For two hours within an eight foot circle.
Greg Glassman:
I don’t even know how you’d implement that in the school. I gotta get off because I’m, I’m not using my, uh, loud headset today. Uh, as courtesy to you. I gotta hop into a tractor.
Sevan Matossian:
Everybody. It’s weird how those callers like you that have to get off. Like, you should be honored. You should be like, oh my God, I, how
Greg Glassman:
Many? No. I love being on.
Sevan Matossian:
How much longer can I be? I’m currently,
Greg Glassman:
I’m currently waiting here. If I, if I open my door right now, it’s gonna sound like a, a hammer drill going off the background.
Sevan Matossian:
Okay. Open it. Lemme just get a little sample.
Greg Glassman:
All right. Sounds good. Here, lemme just sabotage your sound quality. We’re going there.
Sevan Matossian:
Ok. Lemme hear what, lemme hear what happens. Uh, S’S dog. Please feed me. I fed the dog this morning. I did. Um,
Greg Glassman:
How dead?
Sevan Matossian:
Sounds fine. I can’t hear anything.
Greg Glassman:
Can’t hear it.
Sevan Matossian:
No, but you started yelling to music. It must be loud there. All right.
Greg Glassman:
Okay. Well, fine. Here we go. Prove that theory. No, if you can ask, I would be so, so very happy. Cause, uh, just hear, talk about it. I don’t even know if he knows anything about it. Yeah, he does.
Sevan Matossian:
He does opinion. Yeah. I’ll, I’ll definitely bring it up.
Greg Glassman:
Yeah. Okay. Beautiful. Okay,
Sevan Matossian:
Bye.
Greg Glassman:
Hey, it was weird seeing you without your glasses. Make sure you keep your glasses.
Sevan Matossian:
Okay. Thank you. Appreciate it, sir. All right.
Greg Glassman:
Okay.
Sevan Matossian:
Bye. Weird seeing me without my glasses. Thanks. I think it’s weird seeing me without my glasses too. That, that’s kind of why I do it. That’s why I take them off. I feel like it’s like a brave, it’s like brave of me. Uh, Europa Chronicles 4 99. Please interview Dan Danny Hella Dan, hella Daniela, Dan Hella Danny Hela Hodges Hiller made a video about her four year ban for not taking a random drug test, even though she isn’t in the random testing pool. Here’s the thing, dude, I, here’s a couple things I wanna say about that.
Uh, if that video is true, and what I mean by that, if the spirit of that video is true, then anyone to ever do the open moving forward would absolutely be insane. You, you, you absolutely cannot do the open if that video is true. Because basically this chick signed that video basically says that that chick signed up for the open, which automatically put her in some drug testing pool that she wasn’t aware that she was put in. And because she didn’t respond to an email that she got about, um, taking some drug tests that now on the internet, it says somewhere that she’s a cheater, that she’s a steroid user. Now, all of that being said, when I watched the video, something’s wrong with that girl. That’s not like a, um, something’s wrong with her. She, she’s, she’s, she’s as extreme as you could be.
I would say she has some sort of eating disorder or that she has taken steroids or something. Something’s something that’s not, she has some condition, but it’s irrelevant. I, I, I do believe it. Any of those opinions of mine are just from observation are completely irrelevant. Um, there is no way you wanna sign up for the open, and then CrossFit can just, uh, randomly, uh, make a post. Um, well, let’s say they send you an email ca or, or call you saying you need to take a drug test and you don’t respond then. And all of a sudden, on the internet for the rest of your life, it says, you’re a cheater that does steroids. Fuck that. And even if it doesn’t say that explicitly, that’s everyone who reads what they wrote is that’s what they’re gonna see. Do, do not, I, I, if CrossFit never, I Hillary needs to bring that up again the week before the open.
I’d love to see a follow up video on that. Why would you do that to yourself? It that, that is a fucking crazy video. Do you guys wanna see, uh, and by the way, Europa, thank you for the money and thank you for bringing that up. Yapa Yapa, uh, what else did you write on here? Honestly, it doesn’t matter if she’s clean or not. Yeah, no, it doesn’t matter. CF HQ didn’t follow its own procedures in regard. Yeah. It does not matter if she’s clean or not. That is not the fucking point. It’s like, it’s like saying someone was, uh, uh, killed, uh, without a, without a trial. Like, like, you can’t do that then that means it can happen to any of us, regardless of what their crime is. Uh, CF H q then subsequently publicly defamed a non-public dude. It’s crazy. If the video is true, you can never sign up for the open again. You, unless you’re just an idiot. Unless, unless you just, there’s no, the risk is not worth the, uh, the reward. It’s absolutely nuts. Unless, well, unless you’re trying, unless you know you’re going to the games. It’s crazy. I, I, and I don’t know if it’s true. Hey, Greg. Good morning.
Greg Glassman:
Good morning. How are you?
Sevan Matossian:
Uh, awesome. Pumped. Stoked to hear from you.
Greg Glassman:
Yeah. I love this overcast.
Sevan Matossian:
Yeah, it’s nice, right?
Greg Glassman:
Yeah. Teller, it’s overcast here in the cruise.
Sevan Matossian:
Oh, oh. And, and 60, right? 65, 60 degrees. 60 65. Hello, Greg. Ah, he’s gone. Well, thank you for joining us, Greg. That was pleasant. Hey, good morning. Was that me or you? Uh, oh. We got a bad connection.
Greg Glassman:
How’s, how’s it sound now?
Sevan Matossian:
Uh, better. Do you wanna call me from a la the land? Are you on a landline?
Greg Glassman:
No, I, I’ll try it. I’ll switch to
Sevan Matossian:
It. Okay. Thank you.
Greg Glassman:
Okay, bye.
Sevan Matossian:
Uh, yeah. Uh, she could sue for Defama. I, I don’t know, I don’t know what it says when you sign up for the open. Maybe when we all sign it for the open, it says, Hey, you’re gonna be grabbing your ankles. I don’t know. Uh, <laugh>, SEMA Beaver, he’s in town. He better walk his ass over. You know what? I don’t think he’s gonna do that. He’s like 11 miles from me, but I am gonna try to, um, I am going to see if breakfast, are we doing breakfast after this?
Greg Glassman:
Yeah.
Sevan Matossian:
Oh, that’s awesome.
Greg Glassman:
Yeah, Matt in the, in the, uh, Mike are on the road.
Sevan Matossian:
Oh, awesome. Uh, you mean like they left already to go home?
Greg Glassman:
Yeah, they’re gone. They’re, yeah. Matt has already got heading down the 1 0 1 and Mike left just a few minutes ago.
Sevan Matossian:
Oh, crazy. All right. Cool. I’m excited. I mean, I, I, I loved the start in the morning with breakfast with you. It’s cool. It’s the old days. Thanks, bud. Hey, um, uh, someone called in before you called in and was asking if you knew, um, about the La Sierra program, if you were, um, had any ideas about it. But you were still, you were like four when that program was going, right? Four years old.
Greg Glassman:
Yeah. That sounds familiar. Is that a fitness thing?
Sevan Matossian:
Yeah, that’s the thing at La Sierra High School with that guy Stan Lati. Yes. Yes, yes. And they had the, the colored shorts that showed your ranking, uh, like where you were. Yep.
Greg Glassman:
It, my understanding, and we knew someone in the community who was an expert on that Uhhuh, and he had his old, but apparently JFK launch initiative. And it was, it was kind of early Cold War and, um, video of footage, black and white, uh, not video. Then, what was it? Film being shown this program. And I guess he, uh, it scared him and it was done deliberately by John F. Kennedy. Like, looks like we’re getting ready for war.
Sevan Matossian:
Yeah. It’s Did
Greg Glassman:
You that
Sevan Matossian:
The footage is crazy. I had never heard that before. What you just said. I had never heard that. That’s, that, that’s what
Greg Glassman:
I think we published story on it in the CrossFit journal. Yeah. And I think it maybe CrossFit, they had a Oh, I have. But, uh, yeah, I guess I do know something about that.
Sevan Matossian:
And, and, and, and do you remember, um, PE being significantly different when you were a kid in la? I mean, did, how close did you, I mean, like,
Greg Glassman:
They had it, like they had it,
Sevan Matossian:
Right? Yeah.
Greg Glassman:
Yeah. It was, uh, and there’s a presidential fitness award and, uh, you got the patch to put on your shorts and stars every year. You, uh, qualed. Yeah. And I participated in that and had a patch in stars in middle school.
Sevan Matossian:
You did, you did do that stuff. Yeah.
Greg Glassman:
Yeah.
Sevan Matossian:
And were you excited to do it? Was there a lot of pressure like with, with the other kids and whatnot?
Greg Glassman:
Um, you know, the, the run wasn’t my cup tea, but I decided to compensate in the other stuff and led to school records in middle school and high school. Um, but, uh, you standard was pretty clear. And the point system, as I recall, was straightforward. And I don’t remember being, being nervous or uptight about it at all.
Sevan Matossian:
I I, I was born in 72, so I, somewhere in the early eighties, I remember doing it. And I remember having to do some of the stuff the girls did cuz I couldn’t do the stuff the boys did specifically. Um, the boys did pull-ups and the girls did, I think it was called flex Arm hang, where you had your chin over the bar and then they started and you had to hold it up there for a certain amount of time. I sucked at that too. At the time,
Greg Glassman:
You know, the New York Fire Department way back, this is dad’s era Uhhuh, you had to be able to hold your chin over a bar for two minutes. And, uh, that’s quite a feat.
Sevan Matossian:
What, what’s the activation on that? What, what is is that, is that,
Greg Glassman:
Man, I’m thinking you’d be probably gonna be using some neck and some and, and all the muscles in the pull up. I don’t know.
Sevan Matossian:
Yeah, that’s intense. But
Greg Glassman:
There’s a, there’s a, there’s a in there, uh, I would imagine, I dunno how much of that you can withstand, you know, it’s probably, there’s probably some, try, try, try it. Um, lemme know how that feels.
Sevan Matossian:
<laugh>. Um, they, they have a, uh, this website I’m looking at right now, they have, um, they show some of the things that you have to do to get the highest shorts, the navy blue shorts. Yeah. And, and one of ’em is, uh, swim underwater 50 yards. But this, listen to this one. This is the very last thing. 50
Greg Glassman:
Yards underwater.
Sevan Matossian:
Yeah. That’s good.
Greg Glassman:
And this is for what, what age level?
Sevan Matossian:
Uh, I’m, I think high school and, and, and listen to this. Yeah. One of ’em, it says you have to stay afloat. This is for the blue shorts stay afloat in deep water in a vertical position. So that’s treading water, right. Um, use of arms and legs permitted. And you have to stay within an eight foot circle for two hours. That’s like the final test.
Greg Glassman:
What is this? The seal thing?
Sevan Matossian:
<laugh>? I dunno. It just, it
Greg Glassman:
Says, it sounds, it sounds, it sounds maybe as all hell.
Sevan Matossian:
Uh, this is called the, uh, the articles, the, uh, insanely difficult standard of history’s hardest PE program. And it’s that, uh, LA Sierra High School program.
Greg Glassman:
That’s interesting.
Sevan Matossian:
Another one. It, it’s, uh, 34 pull-ups. I’m assuming those are like, just with the gymnastics Kip, right?
Greg Glassman:
Little Yeah. I would, I I would hope,
Sevan Matossian:
Uh, 52 bar dips, uh, the mile run is five 15. That’s, that’s moving.
Greg Glassman:
Yeah, it is. Those are, those are, that’s, uh, that’s a serious standard
Sevan Matossian:
Free, uh, free handstand hold of 45 seconds. So some good stuff.
Greg Glassman:
Yeah, it’s very good. Yeah. That’s, that’s very interesting to me. Did you, you know, we would, we would in the work out of the day, once a while, throw in water and some kinda water exercise,
Sevan Matossian:
Uhhuh <affirmative>.
Greg Glassman:
And, uh, man, you wouldn’t believe the amount of emails that get, like, where am I supposed to find a fucking swimming pool? You know, that kinda thing. Like, like hundreds of them.
Sevan Matossian:
And, and, and that wasn’t a reason not to do it though, right?
Greg Glassman:
Well, I don’t know. I, you know, I, the argument I made is threequarters of the earth services covered in water. Some modicum proficiency in that space might be of value to you at some point, right. When it was the same thing we raised and supported ir. Right. Resource program.
Sevan Matossian:
What, how did,
Greg Glassman:
I would that feels, that feels, you know, I’d heard that it was the emphasis is mill that sounds very military to me. Sounds like, it sounds like they had a, it sounds like a, a Navy captain who’s a field came up with that
Sevan Matossian:
One, right? The, the, the, the floating in it for two hours. Uhhuh, <affirmative>,
Greg Glassman:
Uhhuh <affirmative>
Sevan Matossian:
In the vertical position. Hey, um, well, hey, there’s another one in here that says you have to float for six minutes with your arms and um, uh, hands, uh, ankles tied, right?
Greg Glassman:
Yeah. That, that would, that swimming tied up stuff isn’t that big a deal. It’s easier than it seems.
Sevan Matossian:
You just get on your back.
Greg Glassman:
You gotta, you gotta, you gotta control your breathing. You know, if you let out all your air and go to the bottom, you’re fucked. Right? Right. And so you gotta, you gotta manipulate yourself so that you’re largely full of air and can turn and let air out and suck back in. So least my we used in pool.
Sevan Matossian:
No shit.
Greg Glassman:
Yeah. It took more than that to drown me. I would rather do that than, uh, stay, than, than tread water for two hours.
Sevan Matossian:
Oh my God. Uh,
Greg Glassman:
Some of the water treading drill drills, like, what is it? How much water? Someone will let you know, I forget some amount of water you have to hold overhead and to jug and drain it, staying above. And I just, I didn’t have no chance at that.
Sevan Matossian:
Um, dude, your dad was savage.
Greg Glassman:
Yeah, it was, you know, it was fun. It was. Yeah. He, he was, he was a, he was an old fashioned dad.
Sevan Matossian:
Um, uh, did he, what did he think about? Um, but
Greg Glassman:
I was into it, you know what I mean? Yeah. Like, it was cool. I had a, I had a German shepherd who would open the gate, jump in the pool and pull me out too. Now the deal was that you’d cooperate, but she had you by the, of the wrist and when you were, you’re, she pull as, as she needed to pool, but she would not let me float. We put this had a flip latch on the gate, you know, the chain link gate, common flip latch. Yeah. We had one and she would learn to jump up and push it. She also opened the refrigerator and could open the big garage door. But, uh, we had to put two latches on. She eventually learned to hit one with her, with her back foot, um, paw and the other one with the nose. So even the two latch gate she could open.
Sevan Matossian:
Hey, was she, uh, was she a formerly trained dog?
Greg Glassman:
Just No, she,
Sevan Matossian:
