Catch Up 103 - The End Of The World, CrossFit and Pirates of the Caribbean - #071

**Chris Williamson** (0:00)
Well, hello, friends. Welcome back to the modern Wisdom Podcast, and this week is an absolute treat. It is the return of the Catch Up series with Jonny and Yusef from Propane Fitness. No agenda, no topics in hand other than what has been happening in our lives, what we've been reading, listening to, watching, all the rest of it. We're going to cover my trips multiple to America, Yusef's complete lack of life due to the fact that he is studying for his medical finals, the fact that Jonny is about to start doing CrossFit, the new Pirates Of The Caribbean movie and just how terrible it is. Some different options for how we think the world might end. What else did we talk about? Our Planet and David Attenborough. It's jam packed with mostly bullshit, and the boy's trying to derail the podcast, but it's awesome as always. I love having them on. And it is nice to lighten up the cognitive load sometimes in between learning about how to extend life or alien civilizations. Sometimes nice to just rail on Jonny Depp being a bit weird for a while. So yes, if you do have any questions, comments or feedback, as always, I would love to hear from you at Chris Willex on all social media. But for now, please welcome Jonny and Yusef.
I'm joined by Jonny and Yusef from propanefitness.com. Catch Up 103 Come around so fast.

**Jonny** (1:42)
You think we would have caught up like that, wouldn't you?

**Chris Williamson** (1:44)
Well, the problem is that we're a conveyor belt of catching, aren't we?

**Jonny** (1:46)
Things constantly happen that we need to catch.

**Chris Williamson** (1:49)
Exactly. Faster than we can actually get them out, but the map is not the territory. Because if we were catching up at the exact pace that they were coming in, we would just be live broadcasting all of our lives. We'd just be current. Yeah, we would.

**Yusef** (2:01)
We would be streamers.

**Chris Williamson** (2:02)
And we were constantly behind as well. We would be streamers.

**Yusef** (2:05)
I have a microphone on my desk and these kids walked past the other day and went, oh, you're a streamer. And that was the moment I knew that I'm out of touch with the youth these days. I was like, kind of, but not...

**Chris Williamson** (2:19)
Actually, what I do are webinars. They're very similar.

**Yusef** (2:22)
Webinar.

**Chris Williamson** (2:22)
Webinar. But they're crucially different. Do you need your ad set optimising?

**Yusef** (2:28)
They give the appearance of live, but they're sometimes pre-recorded. That's a thing.

**Chris Williamson** (2:33)
That's a lie.

**Yusef** (2:33)
Yeah.

**Chris Williamson** (2:34)
Webinar. Webinar. So yeah, it's been not that long since the last one, but loads of stuff's happened. So we're going to catch the fuck up.

**Jonny** (2:41)
Catch all of it up.

**Chris Williamson** (2:43)
Catch it up.

**Jonny** (2:43)
In one big bit.

**Chris Williamson** (2:45)
Have you got a synopsis of what's happened over the last sort of two months for you?

**Yusef** (2:49)
Jonny doesn't drink eggs anymore.

**Chris Williamson** (2:51)
Doesn't drink eggs anymore. Got injured. Jonny got injured. You've been a hermit.

**Jonny** (2:55)
I did. I did get injured. Yeah.

**Chris Williamson** (2:58)
You're doing CrossFit.

**Jonny** (2:59)
Yeah.

**Chris Williamson** (3:00)
You're now CrossFit.

**Jonny** (3:01)
Well, as of tomorrow, I mean, when this goes live, anything might have happened.

**Chris Williamson** (3:04)
Yeah. What I love is the fact that you're...

**Yusef** (3:07)
What constitutes you were doing CrossFit? Like you did a CrossFit. Does that mean you're now doing CrossFit?

**Chris Williamson** (3:13)
What's your current training methodology, Jonny?

**Yusef** (3:14)
Great question.

**Jonny** (3:17)
As of right now.

**Chris Williamson** (3:18)
CrossFit. Say it.

**Jonny** (3:21)
Well, no, because I haven't done a CrossFit yet.

**Chris Williamson** (3:23)
Done a CrossFit.

**Jonny** (3:24)
Like I have to do the CrossFit like three hour. This is how to CrossFit.

**Chris Williamson** (3:28)
Yep, you do. Anyway, moving on.

**Yusef** (3:31)
I feel like we were just pounding Jonny with questions there.

**Jonny** (3:33)
That's okay.

**Yusef** (3:33)
What was the name of the first female president? What's your favorite color?

**Jonny** (3:35)
Don't know.

**Yusef** (3:35)
What's your mom's name?

**Jonny** (3:36)
Female president.

**Yusef** (3:38)
What's your favorite type of dog?

**Chris Williamson** (3:39)
Green.

**Yusef** (3:39)
Green, okay.

**Chris Williamson** (3:40)
Green dog. Right, so what have you done, Yusef?

**Yusef** (3:44)
I've literally just been.

**Jonny** (3:46)
Medicine.

**Yusef** (3:47)
Yeah, deep in the whole final few weeks now.

**Chris Williamson** (3:50)
What are the final few weeks of doing a medical degree like for anyone who's considering doing it?
