We’re heading into the holiday season, and with that always comes a couple of things: travel and holiday movies. Because of the first thing, we’re diving into the second thing. We’ve got another “film festival” of movies set during the holiday season, but may not be considered holiday movies.
First up, the second Tim Burton Batman film, “Batman Returns,” starring Micheal Keaton. Does it hold up? Was it ever good? What’s the weirdest costume and the best performance?

Plastic was supposed to be inert, right? I mean, it wasn’t supposed to be able to cause real problems for humans, except maybe the whole issue of disposing of them. But plastics are a lot more complicated than that, and microplastics, tiny little fragments of plastic material, are apparently everywhere. And there’s not as inert as we hoped. Are they messing with our hormones? Making us fat? Squashing our test levels? This topic is really just beginning to be studied, but we talk through some of the implications.
Also, CrossFit athlete Lazar Ðukić’s cause of death has been revealed in the past few days and the answer may have major implications for the future of CrossFit and the Games.

Why are there so many federations? Is it just because people can’t get along? Without getting too far down in the details of each incident, you must ask, “Why is there nearly always some kind of drama within federations?” No one really knows, but it’s possible to take some guesses. Is there any hope for unified federations in powerlifting, or is there too much friction?

It was the end for Wolverine and Professor X. At least it was supposed to be. Instead, it’s one of the most realistic movies ever made about...mutants with superpowers. High fructose corn syrup has killed off most of the other mutants, and the government is trying to make their own – to become trained assassins. And Wolverine has a daughter?

The moral of this film could be as simple as “Never kill a retired hitman’s dog.” In The Matrix, Keanu Reeves helped change the sci-fi action genre. In this one, he helps entirely redefine the revenge action genre. With a fighting style borrowed from imports like “The Raid” and some imaginative world-building, John Wick is a film you can’t look away from – though sometimes you may want to.

All this month, we’re watching (some of us for the first time) some kickass flicks! Following up last week’s look at The Terminator (1981), we dig into its first sequel. This time Arnold Schwarzenegger plays a good guy, and this film has non-stop action. We largely discuss the impact this chapter of the Terminator saga had on films that followed and popular culture.
Huge Arnold fan Dean Saddoris @deansaddoris.ck joins us for Mike’s first viewing of this classic (as well).

All this month, we’re watching (some of us for the first time) some kickass flicks! First up, the movie that cemented Arnold Schwarzenegger as a bankable Hollywood star and launched a multi-billion dollar film and TV franchise.
Does the mid-to-low-budget horror flick stand the test of time? What did 1984 vintage special effects look like? How appropriate was it for Arnold to play an emotionless robot? Do we really get to see Arnold’s dong? Huge Arnold fan Dean Saddoris @deansaddoris.ck joins us for Mike’s first viewing of this classic.

When we recorded this, the leaked IPF with “tips” about coaching women hadn’t surfaced yet, but we did get to talk about other bad behavior and unforced errors. Diddy had 700 dildoes, Vince McMahon may have manipulated women and men into compromising situations, and Andy Frisella publicly and disturbingly hated on women cops.

Sometimes, we need to take a minute to look at what people outside of powerlifting think about the sport. We take a look at a powerlifting quiz published by a fitness site. Some questions were easy, and others…a bit harder even for us.
We kick it off by looking at the P. Diddy situation and Mike’s internet skirmishes over his loathing of 35 lb. plates.

We were saddened to learn of the accidental death over the weekend of Kim Tran AKA Kim Valentine. We discussed some of her accomplishments on the platform and the role she played in bringing women and Asian lifters into the sport. Kim was a guest on our previous podcast 9 years ago. You can watch that episode here: https://youtu.be/oKz4tBIQdGU?si=RyITUYZ6vfoQFe5O
In lighter discussion, we list the “16 seasons of Sacramento” (crazy for a place people think only has two). We also take a look at USAPL Nationals. Will the federation survive its rivalry with Powerlifting America? What could be done to make big national meets more fun for the crowd? Could the answer be side quests?
Mike related how gaming in a lull at the moment, and Jim shared a recent brush with AI for a writing process.

You probably think that pulling sumo is the biggest variation between deadlifts, but there are many more. It can even be challenging to tell the conditions of a particular lift, let alone compare them. Is it wrong to “game” the system to get a deadlift record?
Similarly, should major sports all-star teams have standards – beyond just being a popularity contest?

Understandably, the fallout from the death of CrossFit Games athlete Lazar Đukić is far from over. We discuss some posts and articles about the private meetings held at the Games concerning whether to continue and the demands made by the Professional Fitness Athletes Association in the days after the Games.
Is there a difference between fault and responsibility? Should athletes be more proactive in understanding the risks? Is the element of “surprise” in CrossFit events an essential part of the competition, or does it bring too much risk into the equation?
We also get into a little retrospective of John Cena’s career.

Zoomers are making gyms the “third space” of their generation. We see it in our gym, but it’s happening everywhere. How are gyms that have been designed to accommodate far fewer members than they’ve sold memberships to going to cope?
To kick things off, Mike calls out the motives of “influencers” in the fitness space.

The unthinkable happened. CrossFit lost an athlete during the games. Without having all the answers yet about exactly what happened when Lazar Đukić drowned, clearly sufficient safety measures were not in place. Athletes have been complaining for years about safety issues. Is there a lack of funding? A lack of qualified volunteers? Are volunteers really the way to go? If CrossFit would be nowhere without the athletes, isn’t it worth it to use paid safety staff to protect them? Could this be the end of the games as the world has known them?
Dean Saddoris (@deansaddoris.ck), who has been involved in CrossFit for years, joins us for this discussion. We also run down our favorite moments from the Summer Olympics.

We also share information about the increased incidence of colorectal cancer in younger people after Dr. Jimmy Bagley shared his diagnosis. Jim also gives a health update.

Last week, we talked a little about public figures who have committed terrible acts, been “canceled,” and then somehow rehabilitated their public images. Apologies – sometimes heartfelt, sometimes performative – have been given and somehow the public starts to move on. If you’re the injured party, either in a public situation or a private one, do you really have to accept an apology and forgive? There’s a whole self-help category based on promoting “forgiveness.”
When is it not a good idea to forgive? And when is forgiveness really self-care? We talk through a Washington Post article about eight situations when it’s healthier not to forgive.

We’re back in the studio together after several weeks away.
We talk about the importance of South Sudan’s near victory over the US in a warmup Olympic basketball and admire the commitment of Luol Deng (and our friend, Jacob Ross) to the effort to improve conditions in the country.
We discuss the value of maintaining your individuality rather than adopting the persona of any group. Unless you can be Batman, maybe just be yourself and think for yourself.
We also touch on accounts of a serial abuser with many connections to the fitness industry.

Thirty-nine years after Rocky, and nine years after the last Rocky sequel, director Ryan Coogler served up a continuation/reboot of the Rocky story. This time, Balboa is not the center of the action. He reluctantly takes on the task of training Apollo Creed’s unknown love child, Adonis. Did he know about this kid before he was killed in the ring? (We never found out.) Does this kid possess the skills, the fight, and the heart his father did? (Would this be a Rocky-verse movie if he didn’t?) Do those American flag boxing shorts make an appearance? (You bet!)?
Is this is better film than any of the other Rocky films that preceded it? You decide.
This is one of Sebastian Brambila’s (@sebastian_brambila) favorite movies. He jumped in and also ran the board.
