Sevan Matossian (00:00):

I’m so glad to see you.

Jedidiah Snelson (00:02):

Is this better?

Sevan Matossian (00:04):

Bam. We’re live. No, that’s actually worse. That’s worse.

Jedidiah Snelson (00:08):

Okay. You’re far

Sevan Matossian (00:10):

Nelson. Wow. Young. You look huge. You are a brick shit house dude. Whatcha talking about? Yeah. Wow.

Brian Friend (00:19):

Wheelers series. He is going to get jealous.

Jedidiah Snelson (00:21):

I was not even in the camera.

Sevan Matossian (00:23):

Yeah, you were. Let me hear jetted eye. Do you sound good?

Jedidiah Snelson (00:30):

Am I okay now or

Sevan Matossian (00:31):

Yeah. Yep.

Jedidiah Snelson (00:32):

That’s okay.

Sevan Matossian (00:33):

Yeah. Okay. Better than the crackling. Yeah, you sound like John. Now you sound like you need testosterone enhancement. Ladies and gentlemen. Dead Center is Tyler Watkins. He is the creator of the Heat one app, which we’ll be talking about and pumped to talk about it for the first few minutes of the show today. On the other side of him, the shirtless man is Andrew Hiller from Hiller Hit. You got Hiller hit Hiller Fit. He is also, yes, he is the California Peptides King. He has a great YouTube station. Hiller Fit. Everyone knows it. Down in the bottom with the beautiful blue eyes is John Young from j y Barbell Club. If you want to get strong, find John in the center on the bottom below. Tyler Watkins, the analyst of analysts. Brian Friend B Friendly Fitness. Been together with him forever since right when I started getting pubes in the CrossFit space and then our token CrossFit games athlete always got to have one of those to add some validity to the show. Jetted, Snelson, Jed, you’ve been on the show too, right? We hung,

Jedidiah Snelson (01:39):

Yeah.

Sevan Matossian (01:39):

Yeah. Alright. And you are not a games athlete though this year?

Jedidiah Snelson (01:45):

Well, yes and no.

Sevan Matossian (01:47):

Okay.

Jedidiah Snelson (01:48):

So I was one of the five divisions that only got the open and that was our game season. How did you do? So they’re basically declaring the fittest on earth from three workouts from the open for us.

Sevan Matossian (02:01):

And how’d you do?

Jedidiah Snelson (02:03):

I was second,

Sevan Matossian (02:04):

So I apologize for having the second fittest. Who took first?

Jedidiah Snelson (02:13):

Simon? I can’t know how to pronounce his last name. Perfect.

Sevan Matossian (02:18):

Someone

Brian Friend (02:19):

That wants a chance to go head to head to in real life.

Jedidiah Snelson (02:24):

We competed once together at Guap Palooza and it was like I actually, I had had Covid five days before Waap Palooza that year, so I was not in my best.

Sevan Matossian (02:42):

Hey Fit Wars, is this due to Foreigner? Is that why you can’t say his last name? He got like a long Russian or P last name or something

Jedidiah Snelson (02:48):

Crazy I think, or something like that. Simon Farr or, yeah.

Sevan Matossian (02:51):

Oh dude. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Uns sporty. Beth knows Fit Wars. Yeah, let’s see that. That would be awesome. Hey, bad. How much did he beat you by?

Jedidiah Snelson (03:01):

Not much. It was close.

Sevan Matossian (03:02):

Good, good. All Nevermind Caleb, don’t send Simon a link. We’ll stick with Jedediah. We’re good. We’re good. I

Jedidiah Snelson (03:09):

Did win Wheel wad games, so I am technically the fittest in the adaptive based on wheel wad games

Sevan Matossian (03:15):

And that is the most prestigious, right? I had Noelle Henderson on today and I remember I had someone else on and they were saying that that is kind of the, as far as fitness goes, they kind of hold the premier title. Well

Jedidiah Snelson (03:27):

You tell me. Three workouts over three weeks online or three days, 12 to 15 workouts checking all the boxes.

Sevan Matossian (03:36):

And do they get good participation?

Jedidiah Snelson (03:39):

Yeah, they get better participation.

Sevan Matossian (03:42):

Brian, would you like to weigh in on that wheel wide?

Brian Friend (03:47):

No, I mean when it comes to the adaptive stuff, CrossFit wasn’t the first one on the scene. There were already competitions that were catering to adaptive divisions prior to them implementing it and as a part of the season. So just in this similar vein where they have CrossFit was the first one on the stage for the elite individual men, women in teams. They’re not the first ones for this, so they could obviously make with the name the CrossFit games, they could make a push to be and probably become the most prestigious one, but they haven’t shown that initiative yet.

Sevan Matossian (04:18):

Aaron Jedi, do you mind being called Jed?

Jedidiah Snelson (04:22):

No, I’m fine. That’s fine.

Sevan Matossian (04:23):

Oh, okay. Jed looks, you got lucky. Aaron Jed looks like Kelly Starrett’s brother.

Jedidiah Snelson (04:30):

I’m not sure who that is.

Sevan Matossian (04:32):

You don’t even know the name of the guy. The guy who won division. How the fuck am I expect you to know who Kelly stared is.

Brian Friend (04:40):

Kelly. Kelly Starret specializes in lower body mobility, so we’ll give you a break.

Sevan Matossian (04:47):

Oh shit. Hey goodness, I don’t want to hear shit from anyone either. That’s exactly

Tyler Watkins (04:51):

What I was thinking.

Sevan Matossian (04:52):

This is Jeed I his first show. We’re going to haze the shit out of him. I don’t want to hear anyone fucking throwing him. Anything you want to make fun of Eddi the way he looks. Go ahead. Poor John Young needs someone else for the crowd to pick on.

Jedidiah Snelson (05:03):

Yeah, I got to take the heat off of him.

Sevan Matossian (05:06):

Yeah. Okay, let’s do this. Let’s do this. We’re going to pass the show over to Tyler Watkins here. Tyler, we’ll try not to make fun of you as you introduce this, but I am actually going to load this app into my phone in real time, so anyone who wants to pull out their iPhone and do this along with us, go ahead and tell us Tyler, what we are doing. But I saw some preliminary stuff on this and this looks actually fun and kind of in my wheelhouse of capability.

Brian Friend (05:34):

By the way, I was going to wear my heat one t-shirt to help promote the show,

Sevan Matossian (05:40):

But there is one.

Tyler Watkins (05:43):

There’s only two on the planet that exists. Thanks Travis from Ate. So yeah. Anyway, so Heat One app, go to, I don’t know where you get Android stuff. The Google store and the Apple store. You can download it there.

Sevan Matossian (06:00):

Okay, hold on, bear with me. Say some stuff that’s fun while I download this. Go

Tyler Watkins (06:03):

To the Google

John Young (06:04):

Store, your local Google store, wherever that

Sevan Matossian (06:06):

Is. No, no on your phone.

Tyler Watkins (06:09):

Apple Store 60, type in heat one. And so basically what it is is a fantasy app. Super easy to download there. Let me pull it up real quick.

Sevan Matossian (06:18):

Is this it with a logo of a bunch of armless dudes running?

Brian Friend (06:23):

Yeah, the one that looks just like the shirt.

Tyler Watkins (06:25):

Yeah, right?

Sevan Matossian (06:27):

Oh yeah, yeah. Okay. So yeah, so the app Lean back. Yeah, it looks just like that. It looks like that. What are you doing Jeniah? How come you’re not downloading it? What are you doing?

Brian Friend (06:36):

Yo, let’s get Jada in the pro league.

Sevan Matossian (06:39):

What?

Jedidiah Snelson (06:41):

I’m on my phone now

Sevan Matossian (06:42):

So Oh, you’re screwed. You’re screwed. Hey, do you not own a computer? Are you one of those guys? You’re like Rich Ferny.

Jedidiah Snelson (06:48):

No, it’s just not in this room and yeah,

Sevan Matossian (06:51):

I didn’t

Jedidiah Snelson (06:52):

Take the time to move it.

Sevan Matossian (06:53):

We’ll cut you some slack. Okay, I’m typing in my Avon Matian at Hotmail? No, at hotmail. Jesus Christ at Gmail. Sorry,

Jedidiah Snelson (07:04):

I am curious about this. Tyler, do I do have some questions? I play Supercross, the motocross fantasy and so

Brian Friend (07:09):

I’m Curious Jet, I want to talk to you about that because I’m not a fan of either of the platforms that the Rocky Mountains or the other one for Supercross and I think I can make a much better one

Jedidiah Snelson (07:20):

Better than,

Brian Friend (07:22):

Yeah, I did Pulpa X two seasons ago. I didn’t like it. Did Rocky last year thought it was even worse. They need to have something that targets the middle of the field more. It’s always really top heavy or these random guys in the bottom and the points that they get are totally skewed and you can just gain in and win with one or two of those guys every week.

Jedidiah Snelson (07:41):

The great thing this year is most of the factory riders are hurting out in motocross, so it’s been pretty like

Brian Friend (07:48):

I only do it for the Supercross and it was crazy. Everyone went down. It was wild.

Jedidiah Snelson (07:53):

Yeah,

Sevan Matossian (07:55):

You follow motorcycle shit too. Brian,

Brian Friend (07:58):

My buddy Scott Polinsky and his dad both grew up racing Supercross, so they got me into it during the lockdown year.

Sevan Matossian (08:04):

Wow, crazy. Well you deserve that after getting me into Frisbee. I hope you fall into the black hole of a Moto class.

Brian Friend (08:11):

I thought you and me and Don Fal were playing disc golf next week.

Sevan Matossian (08:14):

We are. Oh yeah, you saw that the invitation that Don sent out to us. That was sweet, right? Yeah, allow in schedule summary it says Heat one would like to send you notifications. I’m just going to say allow. Yeah, hell

Tyler Watkins (08:26):

Yeah, allow for sure. We sent out a couple today, one being this show and the other was the drug pop situation that we had earlier.

Sevan Matossian (08:33):

Oh, the app’s telling me who’s on drugs too. That’s really cool. That’s a freebie.

Tyler Watkins (08:39):

Yeah, that’s a freebie. Anything that helps anybody. So we will do event times. We’ll remind people to make your plays. I mean obviously last year I had to chase Hiller and you and Jr to make sure you got your plays in on Launch Air, so that’s not going to be a thing anymore. Yeah. So five minutes before event will alert you to make your play.

Brian Friend (08:56):

I actually put on my Pix already. I had Jason Smith of E five. I had to take him out.

Tyler Watkins (09:01):

Right. Damn

Sevan Matossian (09:02):

Look, a guy named Matt Burns ironically says, good lord John. Ever heard of sunscreen? Oh my. I

Brian Friend (09:09):

Told you John. I

John Young (09:10):

Live in South Texas. Guys, you’re going to be right, you up to almost a

Tyler Watkins (09:14):

Thousand people on here. Almost 2000. Yeah. Help us get over the 2000 line.

Sevan Matossian (09:22):

Okay, I’m going to give it to, hold on. Hold on, Tyler. Sorry. Sorry. Go ahead. Stop. Stop Chevy. If you have to get off the interstate in Wisconsin on your way to Madison, stop at an exit with Quick Trip, especially if you have to poop. Oh, that’s some salt. Do they have good bathrooms? That’s solid advice. Thank you.

Tyler Watkins (09:37):

They do. They

Sevan Matossian (09:37):

Do. I’m going to drop a fat deuce at Hiller’s house. Lucky camera straps. What a crew. Thank you Mr. Lucky over in Australia. Slop slop. Brian, we need you to bring back Nana’s picture.

Brian Friend (09:52):

I’m at my brother’s house, he’s not as fun when it comes to Grandma’s,

Sevan Matossian (09:56):

A gray ghost. Haven’t been able to hop on live for seven days. Thanks for the Friday Night show. Absolutely anything for you. Dmm me for when you want us to do shows and we will get them for $10. We’ll do anything. Okay, Tyler, I’m loaded up. You’ve downloaded your Heat One app, you signed in, you put in your password, I’m ready to go.

Tyler Watkins (10:12):

Good to go. So if you click the drawer to the left, the three lines over on the upper left hand side, do you see that?

Sevan Matossian (10:18):

It’s called the hamburger in internet Par Loss.

Tyler Watkins (10:22):

We can do hamburger too. Okay. So you’ll see some leagues there. You’ll see top 10, you’ll see Worldwide Champ top 10, and then Worldwide Champ Shot Collar. And then a couple below that. You should see one for your podcast, which is seon podcast shot Collar. So that one’s open to everybody here that wants to play along with just the Seon fans. And then there should be one for spin.

Sevan Matossian (10:46):

Hey, can we pull this up on the screen?

Tyler Watkins (10:48):

No, I can’t. I’m trying to share my screen and I can’t do it. So anyway, that

John Young (10:53):

Was Can you say, I think I can do it at the beginning of the podcast. I

Tyler Watkins (10:57):

Know I pulled it up and the screen’s getting blocked for some reason. So it’s

Sevan Matossian (11:01):

Not Can I do it? What do I do? Do I type in? Can I do it Heat? Heat one? You can, it’s actually it came right up in my Google search.

Tyler Watkins (11:12):

Maybe. I don’t know how it works on the computer.

John Young (11:15):

Can you just put your phone to the screen and do it, Tyler?

Tyler Watkins (11:19):

Yeah, I bet you’re not. It’s not.

Sevan Matossian (11:20):

No, we’re not going to see it. Is there any way to do that, Caleb, that you can think to go?

Tyler Watkins (11:24):

No, you can hook your phone up to the, I think you have Apple, but anyway. Yeah, I wouldn’t

Sevan Matossian (11:30):

Dare do that. What if someone text me here?

Tyler Watkins (11:32):

That’s actually not bad. Oh, okay. So these are the four leagues spin. Do you really? Yeah. Give me a minute. It’s going to be

Sevan Matossian (11:44):

Tiny. Oh, that

Tyler Watkins (11:44):

Looks, so we got the top

Sevan Matossian (11:45):

10. That looks good,

Tyler Watkins (11:48):

Right?

Sevan Matossian (11:48):

So if I text Hiller something now naughty, it’ll pop up on the screen when he is sharing his phone. Yes.

Tyler Watkins (11:54):

You

Tyler Watkins (11:54):

Can see my screen.

Sevan Matossian (11:55):

I love your giant hog. No, but are you going to share your

Tyler Watkins (11:59):

I’m? Yeah. S Well this was last night. I was waiting for that as soon as you said that. Oh my

Sevan Matossian (12:07):

Goodness. This is awesome.

Tyler Watkins (12:10):

Alright, is it working okay? This is good. This is good. There you go. Yeah.

Sevan Matossian (12:15):

Wow.

Tyler Watkins (12:16):

What

Tyler Watkins (12:16):

Do you need me to do? Go to the top 10. So we’re going to go into the top 10 league first. That one’s pretty easy. So that’s for our, wait a

Sevan Matossian (12:24):

Second, this is the Seon podcast. Go in the shot color, the sev on podcast. We’ll

Tyler Watkins (12:28):

Go over that one here in a minute. Okay, so

Tyler Watkins (12:30):

Left button?

Tyler Watkins (12:33):

Yeah, the top left button and then click the top 10 world chant. So in this game we can click you just set your top 10. I do that. Everybody who? So you click over the lineup. It’s on the bottom. So you can see Hiller has already got his pick set. He thinks Jeffrey Aller is going to be in first and he goes on down Pepper in seventh. So you can scroll down. Unpick somebody, Hiller,

Tyler Watkins (13:00):

Remove trash can. Hiller.

Tyler Watkins (13:01):

Yeah, trashcan.

Tyler Watkins (13:03):

Goodbye hopper.

Sevan Matossian (13:05):

How do I pick?

Tyler Watkins (13:06):

It? Goes down to the draft.

Tyler Watkins (13:07):

Settle down. Go

Sevan Matossian (13:08):

Ahead Tyler. How do I pick someone? I went there and it says 787 7. So that means almost 2000 people have picked before me, right?

Tyler Watkins (13:17):

Yeah, you’re on the leaderboard. So in the bottom it’ll say lineup. Oh,

Sevan Matossian (13:20):

Okay.

Tyler Watkins (13:21):

Click there.

Sevan Matossian (13:21):

Oh, oh, sweet. Okay, got it. Got

Tyler Watkins (13:24):

It it right. Oh yeah. So now you can just draft whoever you want in order and then you can slide over to the women and do the same thing there.

Sevan Matossian (13:32):

Oh, this is nice. Show women

Tyler Watkins (13:33):

As well. I’ll show my women. They’re my women. Check it out.

Sevan Matossian (13:40):

Daniel, Brandon, Karin, David’s daughter, Emma, Carey, Emma Lawson, Alex Gaza, Annie, Thor’s daughter, Gabriela Mag, Laura Horvat, Paige Power’s, Amanda Barnhart. Solid picks. Hiller.

Tyler Watkins (13:51):

I know that everyone’s going to love my eight pick.

Sevan Matossian (13:55):

We’ll

Tyler Watkins (13:55):

Talk about it tomorrow.

Jedidiah Snelson (13:59):

So Tyler, with the game, are you just going straight, like you picking the top 10 or whatever. Are you trying to give handicaps where people can pick people where they place back but still get the same points?

Sevan Matossian (14:10):

Or please don’t use that word on this show. Judiah. Thank you.

Tyler Watkins (14:13):

Yeah, so the scoring system is 10 down to one, so it’ll be a out of a hundred total points. So if you get the pick right, so if Annie gets sixth in Hiller’s game, he’ll get 10 points for Annie. If she gets seventh, he’ll get nine points. If she gets fifth, he’ll get nine points. So if he’s off by one, he’ll get nine points and it descends like that. Now there’s a catch though. If they’re outside the top 15, you won’t get any points for him, right?

Sevan Matossian (14:42):

Hey, can people do this while they’re watching this on YouTube on their phone? You can. YouTube will just play in the background. You guys, you’re crazy not to get this app, by the way. I’m not just saying this. I love Tyler and he carried me through the semifinals last time and he comes on my show and he’s a friend. It might be all those actually fun, those things. Oh right, right. Thank you Andrew,

Tyler Watkins (15:02):

If you scroll down a little bit there, Hillary, I

Jedidiah Snelson (15:04):

Know it takes some work, but did you ever think about giving ’em handicaps so you could pick someone if they were projected to be like 15th, but you pick them and they ended up finishing 10. There was a slight create some interest for some of the athletes that aren’t necessarily in the top 20 or whatnot that way.

Tyler Watkins (15:22):

Absolutely. But you’re a fantasy fan. Most of the most CrossFitter people, most CrossFit people don’t understand how fantasy works. And so we wanted to create a game that’s just lowest barrier to entry possible. Alls you have to know is who you like and put ’em in the top 10. I got you.

Brian Friend (15:40):

If you scroll down,

Tyler Watkins (15:41):

Go ahead, go ahead.

Brian Friend (15:44):

I’ve been working with Tyler for a couple years and a variety of different variations for this. And in the past, I don’t know, six to eight months, he’s gotten a lot of momentum in terms of creating something that is really user-friendly and like you said, really low barrier to entry. We do have a lot of ideas and we have tested some different things that will allow for more of that higher level gameplay that Jedi is looking for people that want to be a little bit more involved or have a better understanding of how this stuff works. But this year we’re really just trying to get people very interested and hyped up for a fantasy game that’s relatively easy to play. And then we may even try out some of that stuff in the off season.

Tyler Watkins (16:24):

Oh yeah, for sure. I mean we’re already geared up for Dubai and Waterloo and all that stuff. And also what do people always talk about? As soon as the game starts, who’s going to be the top 10? Who’s your podium? This is already a game. People are playing amongst themselves, just no scoreboard yet. And so now you can

Sevan Matossian (16:43):

Put it up to the test.

Tyler Watkins (16:44):

Go ahead

Sevan Matossian (16:45):

Question. So I have my picks, right? And then I see that there’s a leaderboard, right? And everyone here has zero on it. Go ahead, Hiller,

Tyler Watkins (16:55):

Click over to

Sevan Matossian (16:55):

That. Lemme see if I can down, want

Tyler Watkins (16:58):

Leaderboard. Leaderboard.

Sevan Matossian (17:00):

Lemme pull down that button here.

Tyler Watkins (17:01):

Really? In the middle leaderboard? Yes.

Sevan Matossian (17:07):

Okay, so after every event we can’t see Babs picks, so we just trust the apps. Got ’em in there honestly, right?

Tyler Watkins (17:14):

Obviously right now. Yeah, right now.

Sevan Matossian (17:16):

But then, so after event one, if Bab says Daniel Brandon does he get points after every event? So

Brian Friend (17:25):

This is the top 10 sav. So everything should be seen in the top 10 as soon as the competition starts because you’re never going to change your picks. The other game is the one that I think you’re thinking about where it’s fact by event.

Tyler Watkins (17:37):

He’s also not wrong though, so we’ll change it up as the week goes on. If Justin’s in first, we will give you a hundred. If you have Justin in first, we’ll give you a hundred points for that. So this leaderboard will auto update as the weekend goes through. Okay, cool. Alright, so after the first event, you’ll be able to click on Will or Hains picture there and it’ll compare your top 10 to their top 10. Where are they gaining points on you? Where are you gaining points on them? So you’ll be able to compare all weekend and you can do this with all your favorite analysts. So Brian’s on that, and so people are going to find Brian and they’re going to look at his picks versus their picks.

Sevan Matossian (18:13):

Can you star people?

Tyler Watkins (18:15):

Not yet. That’s something immediately we thought of. Yeah,

Sevan Matossian (18:18):

Okay. Yeah, that’s fine. Just asking. And so this is cool. So there’s a reason to engage with the app all after every event,

Tyler Watkins (18:24):

After every single event.

Sevan Matossian (18:26):

And then when does it update falling into the weeds here after. Well do you update this before they update their leaderboard?

Tyler Watkins (18:33):

No, we’ll update it when they do what they officially do. What? There’s an email address there. Sinclair Collin? Yep. Someone send an email.

Sevan Matossian (18:47):

Hey, did you

Brian Friend (18:47):

Read what it said?

Tyler Watkins (18:49):

No.

Sevan Matossian (18:50):

Anything

Brian Friend (18:51):

About prison is the Dementors. Oh that’s

Tyler Watkins (18:53):

That’s the best name on the whole game.

Sevan Matossian (18:56):

And Tyler, will we get notifications every time it’s updated?

Tyler Watkins (19:00):

Yeah. So will notify you before the event. Make sure you make your picks. We’ll notify you when the leaderboard Hass been updated. You can also check CrossFit Games leaderboard on our app. And then Hillary, if you go back to the hamburger, hamburger and go to the shop, be

Sevan Matossian (19:17):

Greedy. But do you win anything if you win that?

Tyler Watkins (19:19):

Yes. So go to Shot collar game $10,000? Yeah, if you win, absolutely $0. So if you play the Worldwide Champ game, maybe John’s

Brian Friend (19:31):

Putting the money up actually both.

Sevan Matossian (19:34):

Okay, I see Shot collar, world Champ game.

Tyler Watkins (19:37):

Yeah. So you’ll win a pair of strike movement shoes. We’ve partnered with them and we’re trying to figure out a prize package with C four. Currently we did Seal the deal. We’re trying to figure out the right, yeah, C four. So everybody gets some, so you’ll win a pair of strike movement shoes for that game. The Better game if you want to win more shoes is the Shock collar game, which is the one you wanted to talk about first. Savon. So the way that one works is every single event you can go, so this is the pig chipper. You can make a male, sorry. Yeah, you’ll make a male pick and a female pick, but you can only play each athlete twice after that

John Young (20:20):

In that event can’t play

Tyler Watkins (20:21):

Anymore.

John Young (20:22):

If you want to pick Vellner, you only have one other pick for the whole rest of the competition

Tyler Watkins (20:28):

For Vellner? Yeah.

John Young (20:29):

Yeah.

Jedidiah Snelson (20:31):

Which you’re saving for the five K, right?

Tyler Watkins (20:34):

Right. We’re saving him for the paddleboard and run

John Young (20:37):

Paddleboard test. Yeah,

Tyler Watkins (20:42):

And that you’ll get the points that the athlete that you play gets in that event.

Sevan Matossian (20:47):

Oh, they got withdrawn already in here for Jason Smith. You already got him out.

Tyler Watkins (20:52):

Yep,

Tyler Watkins (20:53):

He didn’t. He’s on top withdraw. He got

Sevan Matossian (20:56):

Kicked out.

Tyler Watkins (20:57):

We actually, we hadn’t built one for somebody who had got kicked out, so we’re building one now.

Sevan Matossian (21:07):

Hiller, was it an accident or was it on purpose?

Tyler Watkins (21:11):

I’m going, we’ll talk about that. I’m going with the accident.

Sevan Matossian (21:15):

Oh, you’re leaning towards accident. Wow.

Tyler Watkins (21:17):

Leaning accident.

Sevan Matossian (21:19):

Wow, Hiller

Jedidiah Snelson (21:19):

Speaking of which, I had a question for you on that.

Tyler Watkins (21:24):

No, here we go.

Sevan Matossian (21:25):

Wait, hold on, hold on. Is this part the Appiah?

Jedidiah Snelson (21:29):

No, sorry.

Sevan Matossian (21:30):

Okay, we’ll get to that. You’ll get the first. We’ll do Jason Smith drugs soon as the app is over. Okay, Tyler, hurry up.

Tyler Watkins (21:38):

Yeah, so you’ll get their points and the same thing here. So you can only pick one male and one female. You only get two plays. But then there’s a leaderboard with this too. So if you go to the leaderboard, Hiller, please. Sorry,

Tyler Watkins (21:51):

I’m drafting some people for my first and third events. You want me to go leaderboard? Alright, leaderboard.

Tyler Watkins (21:58):

Yeah, go to the leaderboard. So you’ll be able to do the same thing here. You can click on whoever you want, will Branstetter because he’s going to be in the lead anyway. That’s why we put him up there so high. You’ll be able to compare every, you can’t do it yet. There’s no events closed. Once the event closes, you can go click on him and see who he played, how many points he got. So they can do the same thing with Brian, with John, anybody that they want to follow.

Sevan Matossian (22:24):

Tyler Watt ins a question from the peanut. Oh, Tumi lookalike. Holy cow. Peyton Mosley, you got a little Tia Tomi in you. Can y’all please make it easier to move athletes around in the top 10? Look, she even said y’all, she talked your language.

Tyler Watkins (22:39):

I don’t think it’s too hard.

Sevan Matossian (22:40):

Yeah, it’s not too hard. But

Tyler Watkins (22:42):

Dragon

Sevan Matossian (22:43):

Once they’re in there

Tyler Watkins (22:44):

Already, but

Sevan Matossian (22:47):

How do you move it around? How do you move around?

Tyler Watkins (22:49):

You hit the trashcan and then

Tyler Watkins (22:50):

Trashcan and then if I wanted Madero and sixth, I just put ’em in six and I got Lazar and fifth. So I just moved Madero to six and I moved Hopper up a spot. I suppose it’d be easier if you could drag and drop and slide, but that wasn’t too bad.

Sevan Matossian (23:08):

Hey, lemme see what happens, Hillary. Lemme see what happens if you take Hopper out and you want to put Adler in fifth. What do they do with that Just as well

Tyler Watkins (23:22):

Because then I got to move Eleanor up, right? So I’d have to trash Vellner and move him number one and then I’d have to move Adler or the hell is Adler

Tyler Watkins (23:30):

To the top of the top.

Sevan Matossian (23:32):

Alright, Peyton, you’ve been hired.

Tyler Watkins (23:34):

Peyton, you’re in, you win. Yeah,

Tyler Watkins (23:36):

I noticed that too though. I gravitated towards that slide. I wanted to do that the other day. So it’s on the to-do list for sure.

Tyler Watkins (23:44):

We’re back

Tyler Watkins (23:47):

And if anybody’s wondering, athletes are already sorted by a couple different factors. We have a few things for each athlete down underneath each of ’em we have ’em, the be friendly ranking. So these are you Zoom in, Brian? No, no, these are Brian’s rankings. And then we have the worldwide ranking and then we have what we call a D P, which is average draft position. So it’s an average of where they’re getting drafted most often and if it’s over 10 it’s because we’re taking the forties who haven’t been played yet. So everybody is playing somebody 40th and we’re averaging it with that.

Sevan Matossian (24:24):

I don’t understand what this page is at all

Tyler Watkins (24:28):

To make you picks. Go back up Billy,

Sevan Matossian (24:31):

I don’t understand. How is Lazar Juki at the top? He’s the number. He’s the highest

Brian Friend (24:38):

Rated player. He’s the highest rated player that Andrew hasn’t, hasn’t selected for his top 10.

Sevan Matossian (24:43):

Oh, that he, oh, okay, okay.

Brian Friend (24:45):

Makes So for this game, most of the players that most of the fans or participants will pick are going to be towards the top anyway because they’re rated, they’re ranked highest and so we’ll probably pick ’em in the top. But for the other game, the shot collar game, there may be people further down the list that you see a workout that comes out and you think of that athlete. For example, maybe Jake Douglas on the Olympic lifting total and you may have to scroll further down to find him if you want to put him up there.

Sevan Matossian (25:12):

Hey Tyler, no joke. John Hung says, can we have a leaderboard for the juice Cats? I will put you in contact with the guys who are running the enhanced games if you want.

Tyler Watkins (25:21):

I can do that. I would love to do that for them actually. The fantasy.

Sevan Matossian (25:24):

Yeah, they’re going to need games. Yeah, they’re going to do the juice games. Yeah,

Tyler Watkins (25:29):

That’d be great. Hey,

Sevan Matossian (25:31):

And they got big money. They’re working with, what’s the guy’s name? Peter Thiel. Peter Thiel. Peter

Tyler Watkins (25:37):

Thiel. How are they? Thiel?

Sevan Matossian (25:38):

Thiel. Yeah, they got loot.

Tyler Watkins (25:43):

That’s neat.

Sevan Matossian (25:45):

Here we go. Aaron has already a first complaint. Oh, this is a good one. Aaron Solar. The app is broken. Tyler, it won’t let me pick. Put Scott Pancheck on the podium.

Tyler Watkins (25:56):

Weird. How’d he get in there?

Brian Friend (25:57):

That’s not actually broken. That’s just in line with his history,

Tyler Watkins (26:01):

Right?

Sevan Matossian (26:03):

Oh my goodness. Someone stuck in 2017. Okay. Oh, is there an ig? Is there an IG for this app?

Tyler Watkins (26:15):

Yeah, at Heat one app.

Sevan Matossian (26:19):

Oh, okay. There it is. On your name. Okay, let’s see what else. Go

Tyler Watkins (26:30):

Ahead. For the prizes for shot collar. So we’re going to give out shoes for the top three people who get top three in that league. And then every day if you make the best picks each day, we will give you shoes for that too.

Sevan Matossian (26:43):

What type of shoes?

Tyler Watkins (26:44):

Strike movement shoes.

Sevan Matossian (26:46):

Spiegel. I’m afraid to say it. This sucks. Are you crazy, dude, have you looked at it? It’s so good. It’s everything that every app wants to be because it’s so easy. I can

Brian Friend (26:57):

Use, she’s not on the list this year.

Sevan Matossian (26:59):

Oh, I see. Okay, my bad. Sorry. Yes, it does suck, right? My bad. Be sensitive heavy. Oh my goodness. Mike ris. How dare Brian Friend, sorry, I have to use your last name. Rank Colton Merton’s 37. That’s not in the field. That’s out of the world. What does that mean? There’s only 40 dudes in the field. What are you talking about, John? Why

Brian Friend (27:26):

Are you depending? He’s pulling my rankings from my worldwide rankings from a few months ago. And what’s way more embarrassing than that is that the guy who’s coming to his back can’t even spell his first name. Right?

Sevan Matossian (27:38):

Yeah, yeah. Coming for his back. Coming Easy. Own it down. Own it down. You’ve turned a new leaf this week. Jet City Fit. I think we just went over this, but we’ll be patient because we’re trying to be kind people pushing the app. I can’t change picks for the shot caller after they’re put in.

Tyler Watkins (28:02):

Yeah, you can. After the event starts, you can’t. So call 3, 2, 1, go on the first heat, you’re locked in,

Sevan Matossian (28:08):

You can’t cheat, you can’t move stuff around after the, okay.

Tyler Watkins (28:12):

Nope,

Brian Friend (28:13):

No, just, and for people that are trying to play this game and they are trying to win, there’s a big difference between the two formats in the top 10. There’s not too much to think about The athletes, you rank ’em either in the order you think they’re going to do or the ones that you want to do the best and you let it ride for the whole weekend. For the shot caller game, you have to be a little bit more thoughtful because of what John was referencing earlier. We know that there’s cuts this year and you know who’s going to be left most likely at the end of the weekend. We don’t know how many workouts there’s going to be. There’s always surprises, announcements and things like this. And it may be advantageous to hold some of those big names and heavy hitters for later in the weekend. If you do that, you’re going to watch other people who play them earlier in the week take a lead on you, but you might be able to pass ’em by quite a bit in the backend if good workouts come out for those athletes.

Tyler Watkins (29:06):

Right? That tends to be my go-to is come out real hot and then die. Absolutely done the last day. Dude, why don’t you tell me to

Brian Friend (29:14):

Bring page up. This

Tyler Watkins (29:15):

Page explains the point system. Oh yeah. For anybody who’s looking, if you get confused about how the games work, go to the right most, it’s called settings. It’s in there with your settings. It’ll explain what the point system is and how everything works. There’s also a how-to guide in there if you get lost completely.

Sevan Matossian (29:34):

Hey, congratulations dude. It’s pretty cool. Why didn’t you use the name that I told you to do?

Tyler Watkins (29:41):

Tyler Watkins. Tyler Watkins Fantasy fitness app or Fantasy fitness league. Well, why didn’t we use fantasy Anything? We want to be more than just a fantasy app. Anybody can do fantasy, but it’s like, yeah, we want to be heat, we want to help cover the sport. We want to produce media. We.
