One of the key things Dave did in the Sevan sit down was define what the Games are, as a conclusion of the Open, and an expression of the methodology. What he rightly didn’t include was “elite athlete”.
I met Brian in 2019 when I was a volunteer and he was surprised that I wanted a photo with him. Also I was assualt in the field while staging equipment on live stream and kicked out bc I yelled at girl and I still love CF
Thank you for the CrossFit update Mrs dense I appreciate the information I look forward to the mayhem classic I’m hyped up for it 💪🏾😎🔥🔥🔥 keep up the good work ma’am happy holidays 🎉 and be safe
The important question is when Don said that CrossFit HQ was going to “take significant money out of the Games” did this include the safety budget. It seems to me that for a brand new venue in TX in August the safety budget should have increased. The rumor I heard was that they slashed the safety budget by 1/3. If they cut the safety budget by 1/3 from previous years, they knowingly and intentionally FOR PROFITS made the Games unsafe or at a minimum less safe. I also heard that the presence of safety personal on the water was noticeably lower than in years prior. As if this isn’t damning enough, the athletes organized into the PFAA because their safety concerns were being ignored. Despite injuries and safety concerns, there was seemingly no safety standards or best practices. The PFAA was pushing for this and somehow this was too much for CrossFit to agree to. With regards to Dave Castro as head of the Games, if he was aware of the cuts to the safety budget and did not at least push back, then he is complicit. If he remains complicit after Lazar’s death, then as the head of the CrossFit Games, people will call for him to be removed.
I’m hoping that all these big talkers will hold firm… wouldn’t want them to jump sides and not hold their morals…. 🤣 Also, Brian being so full of himself makes people not like him and he wonders “why”.
I hope two things happen. I hope the new fitness project is a success and I hope the Games are a success! I really enjoy watching fitness. Before you go researching my CrossFit history I have my L1 but don’t belong to an affiliate. Just a fan of the sport and a PE teacher who thinks PE should be more like CrossFit.
Great job as usual 👏. I think its funny how these "elite " athletes who act like they are Holylier than thou . I get making a change but the way they are going about it is completely ridiculous 😒.
Briand Friend is the only true and respectful person that treated this question. You trying to undermine his credibility is just so laim and again distespectful that it makes me nauseaus and Dave Castro interview/propaganda is a joke. The Crossfit Games are Over! Just Over! And if they insist on this path the company will just disapear and hopefully you with them. What happenned to you my God?! I loved to see the behind the games series. Crossfit's podcast with Sevan was great. What happenned ?! What happenned to the people willing to do good and help. With the community spirit? I think it was just marketing and now the true collors are coming out. Bad people bashing everyone that arre trying to say the truth, spreading fake news and desinformation, etc. It is just 🤢
@@TheSevanPodcast For me it's really said. And I mean it. I really liked that time where you all seemed to me to really care about things. That's why I am that disappointed with this episode. Even Castro seemed to me to be someone who really cared. Tough Navy Seal mentality, but someone who cared about the community. And BTW just one thing that I think Glassman got right before all the George Floyd and Covid madness you got into: he was right to shift the focus from the games to health. But now, everything is just broken. I can't even hear him anymore. How clever people got into this antivax, ultraconservative, unempathetic mindset? I don't get it. I really don't. It happened in Brazil and fortunately we got rid of these crazy people that wanted to impose a dictatorship here. But Trump, Musk, all this guys. I really don't get it. I get why you refused Biden, Kamala, etc, but I don't get the support Trump received, the Maga movement. For me that is said. And all this things are connected. I feel that you spoiled everything. So you can think I am funny. I am a "wokist". I am not, really far from it. But hey you will not listen... and time will tell... time will tell...

Thanks for the update! Just listned to the full pod on my road trip. Nailed it!
Gotta be honest… Dave saying that Hiller is a good dude and he is totally right got me off guard 😂😂😂
SAME haha
Brian makes things up as he goes along
Nah, Brian is trying to get back in Dave's good graces.
No way he said he still thinks he should be gone
That podcast with Brian was unwatchable, so fool of himself ...but a gift came Dave with Sevan afterwards, loving those updates Dense
I wonder how many of the big talkers will go crawling back. Great show🎈!
Thank you! Merry Christmas.

I think Hydrox sucks too. I puke every time a CrossFit athlete post a video of it.
😂
Hyrox is fine

I come for the news and stay for the reactions 🤣 ❤ 10:32

Will you be at WZA?
Thank you
You’re welcome ❤
Thanks D ❤

They’ve drawn the line in the sand for sure
Brian’s arrogance is out of this world.
OOTW! 😂
Oops BF said 🎉he quiet part out loud 💁🏻♂️
*Word Salad* 😂. When they try to go deep...
😂😂
Right on.

Clearly he cant talk about things he’s been deposed on risking mis speaking
Shitty circumstance that everyone is taking advantage of.
Best crossfit show on the internet, keep it up
Thank you ❤
16:32 wait so it wasn’t Dave’s fault after all…?
It never was Dave’s fault
@ no it’s not, which is why Brian’s comments surprised me. It was the exact opposite of what he and everyone else has been saying.
14:14 come on, be real, you would have done the exactly the same thing. Everyone would.
Good show Dense, B Friend sure seems oblivious to what an A hole he comes off as doesnt he.
First like and comment!!
2 days in a row!!
Congrats
@@KeithGreenshields lol thanks. thats what life is all about
You should be very proud of yourself.
😂😂
Chandler meant to say the CROSSFIT space.
What is he gong to do that he couldn’t already do the last decade? 😂 🤯
@@DenseUpdatesWFP
For their personal agendas. & then, virtue signaling
Great job as usual 👏. I think its funny how these "elite " athletes who act like they are Holylier than thou . I get making a change but the way they are going about it is completely ridiculous 😒.
