Presidential Debate, $400 Million Dollar Company, Vote4America // The Rich Froning Podcast 038

[@o.d.kay633]

Hilarious to listen to them talk about the 2011 games. I was legitimately watching those back last night. Incredible how much has changed since then. Rich needs to show up to a podcast with a headband & necklace for old times sake. 😂

[@CFProjectMayhem]

That’d be great 😅

[@joshhubbard]

I enjoy this podcast because it’s more than just CrossFit. I enjoy Mayhem because they are more than just CrossFit. I align with Rich and Mayhem and the crew because they are more than just CrossFit. This podcast is great. Just dudes being dudes. Wish I was there in person every episode.

"Froning has no moral authority to speak on anything. It was so obvious when he tried to derail Fraser's career in CrossFit, which tarnished any credibility he might have to speak seriously on any topic. He's a fraud, and it's proven; just look at how he treated Fraser."

[@aceque98]

Truly enjoyed the opening conversation. Appreciate you can express your views and allow for those of us that may disagree. I think future such conversations would be even more powerful if those with opposing viewpoints were also included in the room. That would make for an awesome dialogue. Keep up the wonderful work gents!

[@CFProjectMayhem]

We can do our best to make it happen 🫡

[@LindaD2023]

Awesome Podcast! Thanks for sharing. Everyone should be educated on the candidates and vote!

[@CFProjectMayhem]

Absolutely!

[@therealjustinmariano]

long time fan here of rich, mayhem, baker too! came here to say please keep doing more stuff like this. such an intelligent, informative, unbiased, real-life discussion on the state our country right now (with added bonuses & banter). I have been in such a state of loneliness, anxiety, depression lately over how people approach things, and how they choose to communicate with others anymore. I'm a cynical dude that puts reality at the forefront, and this episode just resonated with me so much I had to say something. I don't necessarily align or agree with everything you all say (or do as an organization), but I don't think that matters. the things I don't like...I just scroll past, or still listen to hear the viewpoint of something maybe I know NOTHING about (like religion). you don't have to agree with everyone and everything all the time, and often times there is no "right answer"...just education, discussion, listening, understanding, respect. I wish we could embrace that culture more as a society. thanks for this episode and please don't change!

[@CFProjectMayhem]

🙌🙌🙌

[@JB11334]

I would also encourage people to really get to know and vote on your Governor and Mayor.

[@CFProjectMayhem]

absolutely! Like we mentioned in the episode, local politicians are extremely important in many instances to daily life

[@jenniferculp5642]

Agree! As an elected official, I serve on city council and I’m passionate about this! I won by 16votes!! Let’s go about local elections!!! We have to support our local people!

[@clewis729]

Usually not a big podcast listener but I really enjoyed this episode and it was nice to hear the different perspectives on all the current events happening right now! Very well thought out and seeing both sides for what they are.

[@LeeMoffat-wm2uh]

Love that intro from Rich, there are bigger things going on in the world than CF and should be discussed in open easy going settings like this! Keep doing you 💪

[@joshw7415]

Rich opening with some fire 🔥

[@CFProjectMayhem]

[@juliejones4467]

Although I havent done CrossFit in a while your podcast continues to be one of the few Cross-Fit related I still follow and this episode is a perfect example why…I really enjoyed this! Very respectful and gentle handling of a difficult subject! Well rounded and intelligent human beings!

[@CFProjectMayhem]

Thanks for watching!

[@blueprinthealthandfitness2014]

As someone who lives on the other side of the world (Australia) this was a good listen...

[@CFProjectMayhem]

Thanks for watching!

[@richfroningsr4387]

Absolutely Love this conversation!! OUTSTANDING!! Baker is a Great Dude! And FYI. Tis been a 11 months since I had a cigarette! Ha

[@wodmike]

Love the podcast more like a conversation than someone preaching at me for an hour why I should believe them. Listening while I was doing bergner's strength program 💪

[@CFProjectMayhem]

Thanks for listening!

[@djsgolfer714]

Although we may disagree here and there, I respect the heck out of all y’all, I would have y’all’s backs and I feel y’all’d have mine. I don’t know if those y’alls are grammatically correct but y’all get what I’m saying

[@CFProjectMayhem]

[@kdaniellemoral]

Thank you for this conversation, Mayhem.

[@CFProjectMayhem]

Thanks for listening

[@ethanhenning6620]

I personally love Glassman and love hearing others nuisanced perspectives. Love Baker as well. Cool show boys

[@shawnbarnett8366]

It is interesting to watch accomplished people talk and express opinions with apparent facts in a soft/calm way. Where can I find the “studies” referenced?

[@JPats36]

Definitely a different podcast. I'm all for it and was very informative. I don't like to get into politics because I have my personal beliefs. I rather not get into a deep argument over politics because "most" people aren't open thinkers and are set in their ways.

[@mirandaquist2331]

Great podcast! Would love for you guys to post Rich's reading list somewhere

[@jonathanlane7370]

"I got Low T!" hahahaha

[@donnawashburn9614]

Love this episode, one of my favorites, and i have watched them all, very educational for me, I learn something new all the time. Thanks for all that you do for CrossFit and beyond. I would love to see an episode about faith and how your Mayhem community practices being better Christians. We had communion this past Sunday, and it says EVERYONE has a seat at the table, even the ones who betrayed Jesus. I have family members that I do not agree with who they are voting for and their reason is just because they don't like the other opponent, which is a shallow reason, how can I sit at the same table with them. I am finding very difficult to love everyone

[@weshagler642]

What an episode to get after this weeks events lol

[@CFProjectMayhem]

We recorded this before this weekend, we probably would have talked for 3 hours if we recorded today

[@weshagler642]

I can only imagine😅​@@CFProjectMayhem

[@jongonzalez6553]

Still can’t accept an AR as an “assault rifle”. Assault is an action. And mag size is irrelevant you can put a high capacity mag in a pistol and that doesn’t make it an assault pistol same as putting a 10 round mag in a AR doesn’t turn it into a rifle.

[@jenniferculp5642]

I am your local elected official. We are normal people that want to make a difference.

[@feliciagalindo2176]

Great Podcast always enjoy them, agree that involvement in your local elections is important. With working in local government, I see why voting mattes so much more. And if you don't vote you can't complain.

[@CFProjectMayhem]

👍

[@jenniferculp5642]

Can you make a short about the hunters and voting? I want to share this and while I’m in for the almost 2hr podcast/youtube I just want people to hear this about voting. I am an elected official! I won by 16 votes when I won! I’m very passionate about it!!

[@mreposa31]

Awesome podcast, it great having someone that can break down politics and explain it and simplify it. Keep up the great podcasts

[@CFProjectMayhem]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@dwight_fit4life]

Everybody has their own views and their own opinions. Its what makes us human. Life is too short to argue with stupid and negative people. Myself i agree what these gents have had to say.

[@CFProjectMayhem]

Love it 👍

[@mumsterdood]

This has been my favorite episode so far and it had nothing to do with CrossFit

[@CFProjectMayhem]

love it

[@TidoubleM]

You all represent normalcy, decency, fitness, health... don't change a thing

[@CFProjectMayhem]

We're just doing our best

[@ashleyharper584]

Amen!

[@leanneyelenosky5443]

Add the book Choas to the list of books to read

[@CFProjectMayhem]

✅

[@dillonbreeden6712]

Love this episode. My 2 cents, it starts at the top. Our leaders do not give good examples of what it looks like to live with one another in peace. EVERYTHING is a debate and taken as a personal assault on each others “feelings”.

[@sarahburbach9348]

NEBRASKA!!! Go Big Red!

[@codykeith2192]

Dan Carlin is a good one to listen to.

[@TheEML23]

Were there some bad takes in this pod? Yeah probably Were there some good takes in this pod? Yeah probably Do we need more conversations like this on this pod? Absolutely. It’s good to be able to hear people discuss stuff like this without it being a screaming match

[@CFProjectMayhem]

[@ranaepape]

I was born in Broken Bow Nebraska. Go Huskers. 🌽 🏈

[@daveborders7312]

Rory seems like a cool guy

[@CFProjectMayhem]

He's a fungi too

[@Mrs.MastersAthlete]

@@CFProjectMayhem😅😂

[@richfroningsr4387]

Yes, Ro is a cool guy! Ha

[@JustAStranger2222]

And yet, i still wonder why Rich has never been to Joe Rogan’s podcast. They could definitely have a solid podcast together. All things aside, like you guys said in the previous podcast, conspiracy theories are not conspiracies but rater facts, so BRCC being a trashy dirty company to its employees hiding behind their “veteran owned” tag is not a conspiracy theory. Homeboys have been nasty, and their coffee sucks 😂

[@DavidGutierrez-de5tm]

People, educate yourself about false dilemmas, it's going to help you navigate the current zeitgeist.

[@DAllan-lz3lg]

Biggest tragedy here is how you pronounce “notre” in Notre Dame 😉 (This is a joke !) Greetings from 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@janeenright8450]

Notre Dame the American school is pronounced differently to the French origin. I always found it annoying too but it’s the accepted pronunciation for that college.

[@KyleDotson_VFL]

Crossfit just needs to scrap HQ and have a CrossFit games headquarters and only focus on running the games and everything else scrap it and let each affiliate do what they want. The only thing I see worth keeping is the coaching certification classes

[@mariopolo8835]

agree with Angelo… i remember Clinton on MTV with “Rock the vote” where they were just trying to get voters to vote who were not informed on any of the issues, but just on the popularity of Clinton himself

[@calliecavalli82]

I mean, but it’s not an assault rifle, that’s a made up name by a gun control lobbyist from the 1980’s 🤷🏼‍♀️ Seriously, I want to like this dude, but he said some dumb things which makes me question everything he said.

[@bruceenglish4763]

I am behind, who is the guest speaker???

[@RobPoppy]

Boomer Sooner!!!😂😂😂

[@singlespeedcrossbike]

Rich you’ve just scratched the surface in Lincoln, keep digging.

[@davidmacella9648]

Should totally try to get Tulsi on here

[@wthibeau]

I would love for any of the guys on this panel to tell me the page number in the SCOTUS opinion overturning Roe v. Wade that made abortion a states issue where the federal government cannot act.

[@daveborders7312]

Assertion that will not be a federal ban seems bold. Federal legislative ban is an aspect of project 2025

[@ryanlarochelle7089]

The biggest thing that I thing should be discussed amongst your community is that there is really no way to be a Democrat and be Christian. They do not align on so many issues.

[@michaelmullins4924]

A lot of fake stats were thrown out by this guy. Also I love how he says conservative values strengthen America while liberal ideas weaken America.

[@weshagler642]

Which ones were fake? I'm only part way through the episode

[@iananderson6463]

Might as well watch Charlie Kirk

[@iananderson6463]

Hirohito (Japan’s emperor at the time) never said that. The Japanese didn’t invade the mainland because it was too much ocean to cross and maintain a fleet large enough to invade. That Hirohito claim originated on Facebook and isn’t true. It’s interesting no one corrected him on that pretty basic fact. Beware of confirmation bias, friends.

[@daveborders7312]

I wonder what is his definition of far right. He gave the game away by saying if hunters register it will be a landslide and then added “on either side”

[@weshagler642]

@iananderson6463 I mean it is commonly quoted from the japanese admiral Yamamoto but has never been confirmed to be true. Still.. I mean if that's the worst misinformation spouted then I'm not concerned with the episode? Also I mean it's not a statement to far off from reality we have alot of guns which makes invading very hard lol

[@stacceyes5911]

Trump loves his country and he’s doing something about it. Even after Saturday happening.

[@danielsnowboards]

Call me far right or whatever but I’m so tired of the “We have two bad choices for President” opinion from conservatives. Trump is absolutely a good choice.

[@1Dragonist]

They haven't been paying attention. Couldn't talk policy if their lives depended on it.

[@markpalacios6137]

A president who lied over 30 times on the debate and never wanted to answer the original question is a good choice ? That’s the definition of far right, and before you get your panties in a bunch I’m neither side.

[@1Dragonist]

@@markpalacios6137 stop absorbing talking points and learn how to be an independent thinker. It will make more sense when you have years and life experience. 😁

[@1Dragonist]

@markpalacios6137 also, please list the so called 30 lies so I can respond to each one.

[@iananderson6463]

Yeah you’re far right.

[@jaclynrobertson6727]

I cant wait to see next weeks in light of what happened. Gonna be lit. Also i started as a never trumper and once i listened to what he has to say UNEDITED with no narrative telling me what to think I realized the legacy media LIED. Hes not perfect and i would have liked to see more. Call me right wing cause i proudly am. AND im canadian seeing refugee status in tennessee if anyone wants to find this dental assistant a job offer so i can get a work visa 😂😂😂😂 Love the podcast and angleo is #uncancellable
