Crystal OKeefe: welcome to the Clip Out podcast, episode four 16. This is Crystal

Tom OKeefe: O’Keefe, and this is Tom O’Keefe. Just kidding. We fixed

Crystal OKeefe: Whoops. A doodle.

Tom OKeefe: Yeah,

Crystal OKeefe: I’m sorry. Can’t even blame it on the alcohol. I was sober.

Tom OKeefe: Yeah. You don’t do a lot of drinking at Disney World. Nah.

Crystal OKeefe: Nah,

Tom OKeefe: I mean, not that it can’t [00:01:00] be done Cody

Crystal OKeefe: but,

Tom OKeefe: but, uh, a lot

Crystal OKeefe: people have no idea what we’re talking about when he did.

Tom OKeefe: it’s the clip out. People know what we’re talking about.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah. It was, um, that’s more of a cruise thing for us.

Tom OKeefe: Or Mexico. Yeah. Yeah. And I, I guess we’ll explain over on the Patreon. We won’t pour you here, but we’ll explain over the Patreon what happened. What happened, yeah. And why we didn’t realize until we were

Crystal OKeefe: done. Yes.

Tom OKeefe: And then we were just like, screw it.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah. That was the general consensus. So,

Tom OKeefe: uh.

Tom OKeefe: but we were back.

Tom OKeefe: Yay. You got a little sick

Crystal OKeefe: on the

Crystal OKeefe: I did. I brought home a little summer cold. I don’t feel terrible, but just trying to get caught up at work and keep on top of everything, so I’m definitely tired. So yeah, my energy is a little low. Trying. I’m trying here.

Tom OKeefe: So what pray, tell do you have in store for people this week?

Crystal OKeefe: Well, uh, we are gonna talk about all of the things that Peter Stern has laid out that Peloton is gonna be [00:02:00] working on. Uh, he visited with Bloomberg this week, so we have some, updates from him. We also are gonna talk about the programs. We talked some about the changes last week, but what else that is going to mean?

Crystal OKeefe: And, uh, when that timeline is gonna be out there. Uh, in addition to that, we also are gonna talk about Hyatt and their expansion with Peloton. We have a ton of summer studio updates and closures, so we are gonna discuss all of that. Um, also instructors in the news. We’re gonna talk about the latest instructor to be in a magazine.

Crystal OKeefe: We are going to talk about Tunde and how and where you can vote and for how long. ’cause this is important also, who is the latest instructor to be featured in women’s health? So obviously female, not

Tom OKeefe: obviously, I guess.

Tom OKeefe: No, I mean, I think

Crystal OKeefe: okay. Yeah.

Crystal OKeefe: yeah. Well anyway, um, and then, uh, who spoke recently at the World Eating Disorders [00:03:00] Action Day, we have artist series to discover.

Crystal OKeefe: We have artist series to discuss. And, uh, we also are going to talk about some competitor news. We have a very sad past guest update.

Tom OKeefe: Yeah.

Crystal OKeefe: We also have some content. There’s a bunch of new stuff hitting the airwaves at Peloton. Plus we have your favorite TCO top five and birthdays.

Tom OKeefe: I think that’s it.

Tom OKeefe: Okay, well, uh, before we get to that, shameless plugs, don’t forget we’re available on Apple Podcast, Spotify, iHeart.

Crystal OKeefe: What, bonus

Tom OKeefe: content are we adding this week,

Tom OKeefe: So this week we’re gonna talk [00:04:00] about the age old question, cardio before strength, or strength

Crystal OKeefe: before

Crystal OKeefe: cardio? It is,

Tom OKeefe: Cardio. it is an age old question.

Tom OKeefe: Science has

Crystal OKeefe: chimed in.

Tom OKeefe: Wow. Be the judge of that. And we all know how America loves science.

Tom OKeefe: No comment.

Tom OKeefe: So, uh we will reveal the answer to that. We have the effects of exercise

Crystal OKeefe: on cancer

Crystal OKeefe: survivors. This is a

Tom OKeefe: This is a fascinating article.

Tom OKeefe: Yeah. Super fascinating.

Tom OKeefe: Uh, we have a study about how, uh, night owls are more likely

Crystal OKeefe: to suffer

Tom OKeefe: dementia.

Crystal OKeefe: What? But

Tom OKeefe: a twist. Okay. We will get to the twist. On the Patreon, and of course there are all sorts of instructor updates that we don’t have time to get to in this episode. So that’ll be all over on the Patreon. And of course, as always, if we get the episode early, you get it early, but we do get it early because Crystal doesn’t now.

Tom OKeefe: And uh, so you’re getting ’em really early on, like Thursday morning. So [00:05:00] that’s all for

Crystal OKeefe: $5 a month.

Tom OKeefe: That’s

Tom OKeefe: all, Yeah, that’s it.

Tom OKeefe: So also you can find us on Facebook at facebook.com/the clip out While you’re there, like the page, join the group. Don’t forget, you can send it for the newsletter@theclipout.com, which goes out mostly weekly.

Crystal OKeefe: And just

Tom OKeefe: it did not go out

Crystal OKeefe: last week. Whoops. sir, we are at

Tom OKeefe: Disney.

Tom OKeefe: Uh,

Tom OKeefe: and then of course you can watch all of these over on YouTube, at youtube.com/clip out. Except for last week where we didn’t have video

Crystal OKeefe: And

Tom OKeefe: and my

Crystal OKeefe: mic sounded like this.

Tom OKeefe: I did put a static

Crystal OKeefe: image with it.

Tom OKeefe: Just static?

Tom OKeefe: Yeah,

Crystal OKeefe: no,

Crystal OKeefe: just

Tom OKeefe: white noise.

Tom OKeefe: That did

Crystal OKeefe: not change.

Crystal OKeefe: Oh, I see. Yeah.

Tom OKeefe: Gotcha. I think you knew exactly what

Crystal OKeefe: I

Crystal OKeefe: meant. like us with Mickey Mouse?

Crystal OKeefe: No,

Tom OKeefe: No, that would’ve been cuter.

Crystal OKeefe: I just did one

Crystal OKeefe: of Was a Tron cycle?

Crystal OKeefe: No, that just did a random headshot video or picture because I was trying to find something very fast that was already in my downloads.

Crystal OKeefe: I

Tom OKeefe: it. That’s what, that’s what yeah. So, uh, anyway, there’s all that. Let’s, uh, let’s dig [00:06:00] in. Shall we?

Tom OKeefe: We shall. So the new CEO of Peloton,

Crystal OKeefe: Peter Stern. Mm-hmm.

Tom OKeefe: I don’t even remember

Crystal OKeefe: name. I know

Crystal OKeefe: there’s been so many. I know.

Tom OKeefe: I can’t keep track of him. Did a, uh,

Crystal OKeefe: lengthy interview with Bloomberg.

Crystal OKeefe: Well, he was actually on stage, it was Bloomberg Tech Summit in San Francisco, and so he was there.

Tom OKeefe: So he was

Crystal OKeefe: speaking

Tom OKeefe: fancy?

Tom OKeefe: Yeah. Yeah.

Tom OKeefe: Yeah. Yeah.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah.

Tom OKeefe: I, you know, that’s interesting ’cause a tech summit seems like that would be like a big deal and something that’s been planned for a long time. But he

Crystal OKeefe: has not been CEO for a long time.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah. But that doesn’t mean that they didn’t say somebody from Peloton was

Tom OKeefe: Right. They just put a placeholder in.

Tom OKeefe: But I would also think Bloomberg

Crystal OKeefe: would be like, no, we need a big wig.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah. But they probably, if they didn’t put down who it was, it would’ve, or if they had to put somebody, it probably would’ve been the

Tom OKeefe: interim

Crystal OKeefe: CEOs that they had.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah.

Crystal OKeefe: Is, yeah, it is an interesting thought, don’t get me wrong. Yeah. But [00:07:00] I don’t. I don’t think

Tom OKeefe: it’s as I don’t think

Tom OKeefe: it’s, I was just wondering like what the scheduling like of that would be like, because you know, they like to know that stuff further in advance one would think, but anyway,

Crystal OKeefe: he said things, tell what he said.

Crystal OKeefe: Okay. So I’m, we’re just gonna focus on the high important things, the high level important things. Yes. The the, first point that I thought was interesting. So first of all, this whole conversation had a lot about. The theme was innovation, specifically where Peloton is concerned. Right. Um, so they talked a lot about connected fitness. Is the future. And it’s not going to be number one, just the bikes. And number two, not just hardware that Peloton is going past hardware and they’re looking at it as they’re going to become a

Tom OKeefe: truly connected fitness platform.

Crystal OKeefe: They’re gonna put a chip in your brain.

Crystal OKeefe: Yes, you will literally be connected.

Crystal OKeefe: But also, and [00:08:00] I think this is more important, it’s going to be anchored in an AI driven. World where your workout experiences are more personalized Now, that has been the agenda since Barry, right? Barry has said that since day one, so I don’t really think that’s anything amazingly new except for.

Crystal OKeefe: Potentially using AI to double down on that. I don’t know if that is or not. Now, stern, he specifically said that the artificial intelligence is what’s going to help the platform adapt to each user, fitness users, fitness level, their goals and their evolving needs over time, which will be interesting. And I feel like, like if you take somebody like me, and there’s a lot of people like this in the Peloton world, where I started off as like bike bike, and then I transitioned.

Crystal OKeefe: Over into running, and now I’m very much in a strength place. So in my mind, if Peloton wants to wow [00:09:00] me, they need to be able to keep up with that, right? They need to be able to say, well, you’re in a strength phase right now, so we are gonna put your focus there, but next year if you move back to running or whatever, we’re gonna

Tom OKeefe: follow you and we’re gonna have a plan for that too.

Tom OKeefe: I wonder how AI will work in that regard, because I feel like AI’s gonna be really good at serving you things you’ve already been served and so will,

Tom OKeefe: how

Tom OKeefe: will it know or will it ultimately prevent you from evolving?

Tom OKeefe: Because it’s so focused on taking information

Crystal OKeefe: you fed in the past, which is Crystal loves the bike.

Crystal OKeefe: It should it so, so if they set up their. Information correctly where AI is right now is that you teach it things, and so you should in theory be able to say, take what this person’s been doing but have this learning curve, this, this available.

Tom OKeefe: available.

Crystal OKeefe: I mean, I know, I’m making that sound real simple.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah. And I’m sure it’s not, but there should be engines that you’re explaining to it, what you wanna do. [00:10:00] So if, if it’s a person like me and you know, I, I was doing a ton of running classes last year. I should get served. Why aren’t you running? I should get served that question, like somebody somewhere should be asking me

Tom OKeefe: that.

Tom OKeefe: Like, are you, have

Crystal OKeefe: changed your goals? What are your goals?

Crystal OKeefe: Did you do something?

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah. Yeah. And, uh, and so that should happen there. But. Regardless, that’s the big emphasis. It’s gonna be ai and that is what’s going to help each person have AI adapt to that and they should have very specific personalized information served to them.

Crystal OKeefe: Um, and then the other thing is data integration. And so Peloton is enhancing their ecosystem. And they have been for some time with Google, Fitbit, Garmin, and Apple Health. Garmin is new. That hasn’t worked well in the past, but apparently that’s one of the things that they are looking to add an integration for and or it’s done.

Crystal OKeefe: And uh, and that should allow for more detailed [00:11:00] tracking across those different platforms of heart rate and workout intensity. Even if you don’t have a wearable, right? Because you should, like, if you always did this and now

Tom OKeefe: you’re not,

Crystal OKeefe: don’t have it today, we’re still gonna have a pretty good idea of where you are.

Crystal OKeefe: Right? And then the other thing is that more partnerships have popped up over the last year with Peloton. So Hilton Hyatt, uh, they’re working with more commercial gyms and um, Peloton is expanding. Beyond the home. And they are leaning, they’re planning to lean on pre-core to do that and expand its presence in gyms.

Crystal OKeefe: And so, uh, they had that experiment that they did

Tom OKeefe: with,

Crystal OKeefe: am blanking on the name of the gym

Tom OKeefe: this year, but it was like LA

Crystal OKeefe: LA Fitness, that’s the one I was like, California Fitness.

Crystal OKeefe: I listened to the clubhouse. Oh, good. Good. I’m glad you do. So they’re gonna be doing more of that as well. That’s good. Um, I also have noticed as a side note that some of their marketing seems to be showing more people getting out of their home.

Crystal OKeefe: Like, it’s like beyond the basement type of [00:12:00] marketing. Right?

Tom OKeefe: Uh, some of the tipsters have pointed that out to me, and I find

Tom OKeefe: well, like the commercial they just had where

Crystal OKeefe: the guy in the breakup, he’s, you see him running in the street mm-hmm.

Crystal OKeefe: A lot.

Crystal OKeefe: But they’re trying to get across to people. It’s, you don’t have to have Peloton equipment to be able to use the app.

Crystal OKeefe: And so you have to

Tom OKeefe: train, you have to educate people. Right. And you have to do

Crystal OKeefe: it in a very short timeframe. For a lot of people, Peloton still means bike.

Crystal OKeefe: It absolutely does. And so, yes, that is, that is part of this. And being able to expand their presence in these gyms will be critical to that education because you’re gonna have all these people be able to try it without having it in their home.

Crystal OKeefe: So that’s great. And yes, it’ll be for the equipment, but it will show them they have access to all these other things. And then of course, we talked about last week, the Repowered launch. That was a big thing. Stern is saying that the secondhand marketplace, uh, is gonna be designed as a safer, more premium alternative to peer-to-peer platform.

Crystal OKeefe: So I, you know I, I, think that is definitely a good thing. I definitely think people selling will get a [00:13:00] premium from, for that. Like their experience will be at a premium for doing that. I personally, if I was gonna sell it would much rather use Pelotons secondhand

Tom OKeefe: marketplace then throw it up on

Crystal OKeefe: marketplace and

Tom OKeefe: deal with crazy people coming to my

Tom OKeefe: house. Or if I was buying one, absolutely. Even if it’s a a little bit more,

Crystal OKeefe: I’d be like, well, I have the safety of knowing if something

Tom OKeefe: goes wrong.

Tom OKeefe: Like

Tom OKeefe: the word Peloton is behind it. Like

Tom OKeefe: that. There’s someone I can go complain to where if you get it home

Crystal OKeefe: and it’s just a

Tom OKeefe: guy off the

Crystal OKeefe: internet, he’s just never gonna talk to

Crystal OKeefe: you. Yeah. You don’t know what you’re gonna get.

Crystal OKeefe: Um But, on the flip side of that, I will also say their customer service is still a really big problem. I mean, the stuff that I am seeing daily that comes out of their mouth

Tom OKeefe: at customer service or out of their chat is insane.

Tom OKeefe: But on

Crystal OKeefe: the flip side of

Tom OKeefe: like.

Crystal OKeefe: Every

Tom OKeefe: has a version Absolutely. Of that. So true. Like

Crystal OKeefe: I just

Tom OKeefe: with it the other day with, with Allstate.

Tom OKeefe: You did, right? And so

Tom OKeefe: you go down that route. No, I won’t. But [00:14:00] but, the fact remains that, but somewhere there’s a corporation that you can at least get

Crystal OKeefe: to, to eventually say, yeah, hey, listen to me.

Crystal OKeefe: Otherwise, it’s just, you’re gonna end up on judge duty because it’s small claims. Right? Right. Like it’s he said, she said there’s nothing. Yeah. There’s nothing to pin that. I totally get your point, and I agree with that. Um, the last thing that Peloton noted or stern noted is that. He reiterated. I thought this was interesting.

Crystal OKeefe: Peloton is on track to remain a standalone public company focused on sustainable long-term growth.

Tom OKeefe: He said the same thing Barry said while he was CEO.

Crystal OKeefe: We’re not gonna sell,

Crystal OKeefe: we’re not looking to be part of someone else’s

Tom OKeefe: portfolio. Nope.

Tom OKeefe: Don’t wanna sell.

Crystal OKeefe: And apparently still don’t wanna buy tonal, but

Tom OKeefe: uh,

Tom OKeefe: well, they still don’t have the money.

Tom OKeefe: I know.

Crystal OKeefe: But,

Tom OKeefe: uh, that’s that

Tom OKeefe: man. Peloton and tonal.

Tom OKeefe: I know.

Tom OKeefe: That would be pretty awesome.

Tom OKeefe: That’d be beautiful.

Tom OKeefe: The only downside is

Crystal OKeefe: then I would finally be using public.

Tom OKeefe: The end

Tom OKeefe: of

Crystal OKeefe: it era.

Crystal OKeefe: It would be, [00:15:00] we’d have to send a little video to, to John Foley

Tom OKeefe: and to

Tom OKeefe: ali. Yes. Ali. Yeah. From Tonal. Yes. So, uh, moving along,

Crystal OKeefe: programs are going to experience some disruptions in the short term.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah, we talked about last week that smart TVs and apps are on June 12th. They’re going to no longer be able to be used in the way that they were programs only, not programming, right.

Crystal OKeefe: Programs, Peloton programs. So in addition to that, pelotons, like as we’re, we’re gonna be rolling out a new experience for programs and as we roll out that new experience. You are gonna have, if you’re already in the middle of a program, you’re

Tom OKeefe: gonna see your

Crystal OKeefe: go away for about 24

Tom OKeefe: hours. It’s

Crystal OKeefe: look like it’s not right.

Crystal OKeefe: There was a lot of that. I think, and I’m becoming more convinced of this every day. We’ll see tomorrow that, um, ’cause it starts tomorrow. Tomorrow’s June 12th. [00:16:00] I think they are gonna re-roll out programs and you’re gonna be able to finally get to the classes so you don’t have to use the janky workaround where you’re like, Hey friend, I know you’ve

Tom OKeefe: taken this class,

Crystal OKeefe: so give me your link so I can get to this class that’s so janky.

Crystal OKeefe: So that’s what I think is gonna happen. But we shall see. What happens in the meantime? Uh, this has already been rolling out. Some people have already experienced this issue. Some people it’s already been it, they experienced it and it

Tom OKeefe: resolved. So it’s a rolling update. Right.

Tom OKeefe: So, uh, you mentioned earlier in the episode about Hyatt. And so Hyatt is expanding their Peloton promotion

Crystal OKeefe: into Latin America.

Tom OKeefe: They are.

Crystal OKeefe: I

Tom OKeefe: this fascinating.

Tom OKeefe: Why are you, why do you find that fascinating?

Tom OKeefe: Because, to the best of my knowledge, unless there’s something that

Crystal OKeefe: we’ve talked about

Tom OKeefe: I’ve forgotten, right?

Tom OKeefe: Like. They don’t sell Pelotons in Latin America.

Tom OKeefe: Right. They don’t.

Tom OKeefe: And [00:17:00] so, and the, the thought process, I, at least in my head had always been, it was a music licensing issue. I. Right. That they haven’t licensed the

Crystal OKeefe: music to play in those

Tom OKeefe: and, those

Crystal OKeefe: areas. And that’s why you’ve see, you know, it’s way

Crystal OKeefe: more than that. It’s way more complicated. I think that’s just the way your brain, because your pop culture, right?

Crystal OKeefe: So I think that’s just the way your brain separates it. But like, it’s also, you can’t just ship there. You have to have all these, you have to have all these distribution agreements. You have to have, you have to pay, you have to be set up to pay a certain amount of taxes. There’s, like a million things that go into setting up a new country, not to mention marketing and storefronts and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Crystal OKeefe: So I don’t think it’s that simple, but I also think that we

Tom OKeefe: all know that at least some people will get it

Crystal OKeefe: shipped anywhere and then they’ll take it back to their house

Crystal OKeefe: with, there’s no way to break it, so like it Hashtag

Crystal OKeefe: Hong Kong hustler’s been around for

Tom OKeefe: years right? Right. in Hong Kong with, with one for

Tom OKeefe: years. Yeah. Like

Tom OKeefe: back 16. Yeah.

Tom OKeefe: So [00:18:00] it’s not like if you take your Peloton and plug it in in Sweden, it’s not gonna work. But that they weren’t allowed to sell them there ’cause they hadn’t paid for the music licensing.

Tom OKeefe: So I just think it’s interesting that they

Crystal OKeefe: don’t have music licensing

Tom OKeefe: issues in Central

Crystal OKeefe: America.

Crystal OKeefe: that doesn’t mean they don’t have issues.

Crystal OKeefe: I, I,

Crystal OKeefe: yeah. we’re gonna get a whole new round of lawsuits.

Crystal OKeefe: No, I, I don’t, I I just, I don’t think it’s that cut and dry because where I, this is my

Crystal OKeefe: I, I wish, I wish Gail were here right now. Here’s my thought. If Hyatt is an American company, right, and they have their contract and music licensing through them, then maybe it’s not as cut and dry.

Crystal OKeefe: And, also the other thing is, is that. When they are set up in gyms, they have to go through a, a process. Peloton goes through a process with a gym when they set it up and they have to like, go through a bunch of things that they [00:19:00] fell out. And one of those is the music licensing. So I don’t know that you, saying they don’t have issues.

Crystal OKeefe: I just think there might be a workaround, like, like maybe it’s not as cut and dry.

Tom OKeefe: It, depends

Crystal OKeefe: on like where the contract is written and. Music licensing is so

Crystal OKeefe: complicated. It’s, and, um, so I don’t know the particulars of it. I thought it was just interesting because Peloton is saying like, they wanna keep growing and what they wanna do is like, kind of expand outside of countries where they currently are, but like.

Crystal OKeefe: In neighbor countries. So my question then becomes, are they just focusing on Latin America specifically because they already have so many, so much Spanish content, right. And it’s, it, it’s like there’s some way they can get around it. Specifically Hyatt or, uh, other,

Tom OKeefe: other,

Tom OKeefe: these

Crystal OKeefe: um, Hilton that was the other company because they have a [00:20:00] US.

Tom OKeefe: com Component that they’re not just like we are now selling bikes in Latin America. It’s not that

Crystal OKeefe: simple. Yeah. All I know is that like when we

Tom OKeefe: go to Mexico, if I log into Netflix, we get like three shows.

Tom OKeefe: That’s true. That is a great point.

Tom OKeefe: And

Crystal OKeefe: so you know,

Crystal OKeefe: that’s a great point. I

Crystal OKeefe: don’t know, I just,

Tom OKeefe: I, I find it interesting, like, it makes

Tom OKeefe: me, I hope you’re wrong and we’re not gonna find another whole round

Tom OKeefe: of lawsuit. Well, it made me wonder if, like they’ve

Crystal OKeefe: worked that. Angle out and we’re about to see

Tom OKeefe: more

Crystal OKeefe: countries be allowed to sell Pelotons.

Crystal OKeefe: It would be interesting.

Tom OKeefe: I think it’s

Crystal OKeefe: great question. I think it’s a great thing to bring

Tom OKeefe: up

Crystal OKeefe: a good call

Tom OKeefe: out, as they would say at my new company.

Tom OKeefe: Oh, okay.

Tom OKeefe: And, uh, we will, we will see.

Crystal OKeefe: So let’s take a look at summer studio updates.

Crystal OKeefe: Okay. So some important things to note. We’re, going to, I think I’m just gonna tackle this and the next topic, maybe all in one.

Crystal OKeefe: summer studio. Let’s take a look at Studio [00:21:00] updates. And closures.

Crystal OKeefe: Right?

Crystal OKeefe: Because the updates that are occurring at the studio are making because

Crystal OKeefe: of the closures. they’re

Crystal OKeefe: making the closures. They are creating the closures, okay? And they’re not cut and dry like, like this is really weird. It’s rolling. It’s a smart way to do it, but it’s a difficult way to memorize it, right? For instance, July 10 through third PSNY is closed.

Crystal OKeefe: There are no CL live classes, period. But July 14th through August 2nd, they’re not closed, but there’s no live cycling classes, okay? And then July 18th through August 4th, no live tread classes. So there it’s like a rolling change. Um, and then August 5th through the 23rd, there will be no live strength or row classes.

Crystal OKeefe: And then on August 5th through 20, excuse me, August 8th through 25th, no live yoga, meditation bar or Pilates. So as you can see, that’s very confusing. I highly recommend you just look at our updates in the article that we have, because that’s a lot of different dates to memorize for sure. Um. But I wanted [00:22:00] you guys to know that and London will be closed August 11th through the 17th period.

Crystal OKeefe: No classes at all. So that’s, that’s an interesting thing. But then this is crazy because now. The US based instructors are going to take over London, so Cody, Emma, Robin, Olivia, Becks, Nico. They are all going to London and they are gonna teach classes from the Peloton studios in London,

Crystal OKeefe: opposite of a British invasion.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah, it is. And so that’s gonna be cool ’cause it’ll be two for one instructor specials, like for example, uh, Becks and Susie hosting an outdoor live run. So that’ll be awesome for people who live in London or who visiting London to be able to go and meet these instructors who they wouldn’t otherwise a chance to have access to.

Crystal OKeefe: It’ll be like when Ricky DVA was on the office with Steve Carre. Yeah, exactly. It’s just like that. Also starting on [00:23:00] June 30th, Peloton is dedicating every single Monday to celebrating different member groups. So they’re gonna have these special live classes, live events and social media shout outs.

Crystal OKeefe: Uh, and that’s gonna be a weekly event again, every Monday starting June 30th. Except those days they’re closed. Then there won’t be,

Tom OKeefe: I hope there aren’t any, uh, Peloton, Garfield groups.

Crystal OKeefe: because he hates Mondays. Yeah.

Crystal OKeefe: Mondays.

Crystal OKeefe: Um, and then we’re, we’ve already talked about this, but a hundred days of summer streak that started on May 26th.

Crystal OKeefe: So it’s happening. Um, and then we have this summer. Top 10 countdown that’s happening that’s gonna be in July. And then there’s gonna be the 2025 countdown in September. And so there’s gonna be playlists for both of those events across all bike tread row or the mat. So that’s a lot.

Tom OKeefe: That’s a lot. I know.

Tom OKeefe: That’s a whole lot of updates. [00:24:00] And You should write an article about that. You really have to go to the YouTube to watch the face.

Crystal OKeefe: Well help her be. Elizabeth is all over it. Tom.

Tom OKeefe: Well thank you. Help her be Elizabeth.

Crystal OKeefe: She already wrote the article and posted it. It’d be nice if you read it sometime, Tom.

Tom OKeefe: Well, I’m not going to the studio.

Crystal OKeefe: Oh, I know.

Tom OKeefe: And even if I was, I have you,

Tom OKeefe: you’d all figured, you’d figured it all out for me. I wouldn’t had to worry about it. So I know better than that. That’s a waste of my time and energy. So, uh, we have some changes to instructor profile images.

Crystal OKeefe: Okay, so we’ve got several changes. Peloton put out this big alert across the platform that said you, you’ve got an updated platform or an updated profile rather. So I had to go check it out and uh, the first thing that happened is now there’s a dropdown that you can see on your profile that switches modality.

Crystal OKeefe: So like, let’s say total distance, you wanna see, well, you can minds on running and walking as a [00:25:00] default, I think, because that’s what I’ve been mostly doing. Okay, well I can easily just. Click a button and it’ll flip over to biking, and then I can see that, or I can see rowing, I guess would be the other distance.

Crystal OKeefe: So that’s one thing. Another thing that they did is they did some major changes to the goal. So now you see what your personal goal is set at along the top, and then you have your active days, uh, and then you have daily and weekly streaks right there, all on the same page. And you can. Quickly see what your current active days this month are versus last month.

Crystal OKeefe: By the way, all of my suck because it’s June compared to May and we were gone for all of June.

Tom OKeefe: They’re

Crystal OKeefe: they’re like, you’re a new member.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah, exactly. It looks really awful. Then they have the active time updated, which is where you really see how terrible it is because the time spent in each modality is totaled.

Crystal OKeefe: Right across the screen and you can to toggle really fast between week, month, year [00:26:00] and all

Tom OKeefe: time. So mine says

Crystal OKeefe: I’ve walked for one hour this month and I’ve done meditation for five minutes. That’s it. That’s all I’ve got.

Crystal OKeefe: You’ve walked for way more than one hour.

Crystal OKeefe: I know, but like, I’m not gonna turn Peloton on and suck up all my battery the whole time I did that.

Crystal OKeefe: Like what a waste that would be. Um, but yeah, yeah. Try like 15,000 steps a day. Okay, so then they made some changes to the personalized plan.

Tom OKeefe: Now you can

Crystal OKeefe: change the order of your planned workout, so you can have a very flexible schedule. So if you don’t like the plan they gave you, boop, boop, boop, change it.

Crystal OKeefe: Oh, there’s boops,

Crystal OKeefe: there are boops. And then if you wanna change the goals or your activity preference. Or the availability. You have easily do that in settings. And then the last change that they made are you can easily mark days as complete

Tom OKeefe: and get plan credit

Crystal OKeefe: activities that occurred outside of Peloton.

Crystal OKeefe: So they’ve made all of those changes this week.

Crystal OKeefe: will there be more BI don’t know about the boobs. The other interesting thing about this is though. So everyone got [00:27:00] this notification at the same time, but not everyone got these changes at the same time. Now I am the first person to say, Hey, these changes take hours to roll out to all members.

Crystal OKeefe: I get that. But explain to me,

Tom OKeefe: How

Crystal OKeefe: Nikki got the notification hours before I did, and still today does

Tom OKeefe: not have these

Crystal OKeefe: changes from three days ago. I’m worried they didn’t make the changes to Android at all and they

Tom OKeefe: sent it out to Android users. Ew, I

Crystal OKeefe: know that that’s the case. Yeah, I

Tom OKeefe: have not

Crystal OKeefe: that.

Crystal OKeefe: I’m worried that is the

Tom OKeefe: case.

Tom OKeefe: I’m an Android user. Let me

Crystal OKeefe: log into. oh wait.

Tom OKeefe: I

Tom OKeefe: can’t do that. You log in. You do have a login? Do. I? Yeah, you do. We’ve been over this.

Tom OKeefe: You always say that. I do. When I don’t.

Tom OKeefe: Uh, yeah, you do.

Tom OKeefe: Okay. Coming up after this, we’re gonna tackle instructors in the news.

​

Tom OKeefe: Okay. Magazine, taking their life in their own hands addresses the pregnancy question mark of Ally love. So [00:28:00] stick around.

Crystal OKeefe: Okay. Magazine.

Tom OKeefe: Has tackled

Crystal OKeefe: the ally love pregnancy rumors.

Crystal OKeefe: I mean, months after we did, but Okay. Whatever.

Tom OKeefe: I’ll put the

Crystal OKeefe: I’ll put the rumors in air quotes.

Crystal OKeefe: It is, it’s so silly. Yeah, so they’re this whole, like article. It’s okay. Magazine. So it’s meant to be tongue in cheek. It’s not meant to be taken super seriously.

Crystal OKeefe: But, um, they did an interview with, uh, Emma Lovewell and, they were talking about pregnancy and Emma level was talking about how she’s excited for more of her, her colleagues to have kids. Um, and then Okay. Magazine just kind of wedged in there among rumors that Ali is pregnant. Right? I mean, at this point, I don’t know why the woman won’t just say she’s pregnant.

Crystal OKeefe: It’s her decision. Yeah. And I know that it’s obvious at this point, but like why is it that you won’t just say it’s, like the most awkward [00:29:00] non-conversation ever. It’s months like this has been going, like I’ve been having this conversation with people since December. December and

Tom OKeefe: and

Crystal OKeefe: I’m tired of talking about it.

Crystal OKeefe: I don’t know of anybody else’s, but I am. And I just. We’ve already talked about this in a bonus episode. Yeah. But, uh, they, Emma Lovewell made jokes about, yeah, they need to have like a daycare center for all these people that have had babies. We will, see. But I mean, ally is pregnant. She just won’t say the words, but everybody knows it.

Crystal OKeefe: So I don’t, I don’t get it. I don’t get it. I’ll never get it.

Crystal OKeefe: I don’t get it

Crystal OKeefe: either. And for anybody who feels the need to defend Ally, let me just say, please do not waste your time. Like I’m not mad about it. Nobody’s mad about it. It just. So pointless. And if the idea is that like, I don’t have to talk about my body, well, okay.

Crystal OKeefe: But you kind of make people talk about, ’cause you’re not allowed to say a woman is pregnant until they say they’re pregnant. Because what if they [00:30:00] just have like, I don’t know, like a tumor. Like there was a lady I knew that literally had a tumor in her stomach and had a shape like a pregnancy. So like, would she want people to go up to her and say she was pregnant?

Crystal OKeefe: No. So you’re not allowed to do that. That’s very much a. Pa and so, so like, if we could address the elephant in the room, it would just make everybody a lot, it would make it easier. Yeah. She doesn’t wanna make it easy, so that’s her choice. I’m not mad about it, but like, you don’t need to defend it either,

Tom OKeefe: so please don’t

Crystal OKeefe: me.

Tom OKeefe: I totally agree that like

Crystal OKeefe: it’s

Tom OKeefe: bullshit to speculate about stuff like that. ’cause more often than not, it’s just some, somebody put in a little bit of weight or whatever and it’s just like you’re shaming them for no reason. Exactly. And it’s like, I totally get

Crystal OKeefe: where this comes from, but like now the pendulum is kind of swung the other way to where it’s just like, you know, it’s, you know.

Crystal OKeefe: She’s crowning and we’re not allowed to talk

Crystal OKeefe: about. Exactly. I mean, ’cause for people who are defending her, there was a

Tom OKeefe: long time she was

Crystal OKeefe: literally blocking people for bringing it up. So

Tom OKeefe: she, she feels some type of way about it, and I think it’s [00:31:00]

Crystal OKeefe: that people are confused and asking a question.

Crystal OKeefe: You’re on camera

Tom OKeefe: every Yeah. day. People wanna know,

Tom OKeefe: like at the end

Crystal OKeefe: of the day, you’re

Tom OKeefe: public figure. You gotta take the good with the bad

Crystal OKeefe: do. It’s just how it works.

Tom OKeefe: Moving right along. To discussing women’s bodies. Oh yeah.

Crystal OKeefe: Tunde.

Tom OKeefe: Tune day.

Crystal OKeefe: Let’s see what other trouble we can get into.

Crystal OKeefe: And the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition.

Crystal OKeefe: We have an update. Boating is now open.

Crystal OKeefe: It is, and it’s gonna be open for an entire month. So we have, uh, the, on Instagram on our profile at Clip Up Crystal, there is a link to go vote. For tune day and you can vote once a day. Okay. For the entire month. I also thought it was really nice, like super nice, like this just shows what a class act tune day is.

Crystal OKeefe: She went on her Instagram live, I think it was live, and she talked about how if you feel that she is the best. Person for this, vote for her. And if you don’t, please don’t. Because [00:32:00]she didn’t wanna take away from the other women. And like that is how you support other women. It’s not all about you, you know?

Crystal OKeefe: And there’s nothing wrong with us all rallying behind our favorite instructors. So don’t misunderstand that either. It’s just she went out of her way to say,

Tom OKeefe: I don’t wanna win just because you

Crystal OKeefe: know who I am. I wanna win because you really think. That I

Tom OKeefe: am the right person,

Crystal OKeefe: and if I

Tom OKeefe: don’t, that’s okay too.

Tom OKeefe: Don’t just turn it into a popularity contest. Precisely. Yeah.

Tom OKeefe: Yep. I really, I thought that was just a really

Crystal OKeefe: thing to do.

Crystal OKeefe: Hannah Corbin is featured in women’s health.

Crystal OKeefe: She is. And I have

Tom OKeefe: to say, this is,

Crystal OKeefe: believe it’s Austria and, uh, she has a whole. Article about how she turned autoimmune into auto. Amazing. She struggles with Hashimoto’s, which we’ve talked about before on the show. And she, she, in this article talks about her experiences living with Hashimoto’s and she’s a pretty private person. So I think that it’s one of [00:33:00] those rare instances where you get to have a little bit of a peak of what.

Crystal OKeefe: Things look like right in the background. And I’m sure the timing of her new book that probably she’s probably being asked to

Tom OKeefe: do, for sure, Yeah. a little more transparent right now. Yeah. so that’s always tough I, I think yeah, for a person who’s private.

Tom OKeefe: So,

Crystal OKeefe: So, uh, Mariana Fernandez got to speak at World Eating Disorders Action. This Day.

Crystal OKeefe: Yes. And this was part of the Mental Health Awareness month, I believe. I could be wrong though, because there’s so many great things that occur like right in a row. And this happened five days ago, so that would technically be in June.

Crystal OKeefe: So maybe that’s not part of mental health awareness. But anyway, uh, world Eating Disorders Action Day. It is a call to break biases, bringing awareness, taking action towards accessibility to resources and guidance. And so, uh, she was part of this panel and she spoke about about athleticism and mental health, uh, which is probably where I got the mental health piece of it.[00:34:00]

Crystal OKeefe: And she also had a really vulnerable dialogue with fellow athletes and had some expertise in there too, of course. And then there were a lot of people involved in this conversation, so I thought this was a really nice. Thing to highlight. Mariana, uh, she’s always very open about her struggles with, with, um, mental health.

Crystal OKeefe: She, you know, she calls it the heavies, like, I think I hear that as depression. You know, she struggles with like a little bit of darkness. And so when she goes through moments like that, it’s really tough. And I know she also had some health issues this year. She spoke about as well in instances, uh, on Instagram.

Crystal OKeefe: So. I, really appreciate her transparency about this and her realness. She comes across to me as one of the most authentic instructors that Peloton has. And so hearing from somebody talking about their own experiences in such an authentic manner, I think is so helpful to people struggling. It’s like I can, [00:35:00] feel what you’re going through, and it tells people there’s hope and even on the bad days.

Crystal OKeefe: And,

Tom OKeefe: and she also doesn’t have this like. Pollyanna attitude Right. She’s very, like, some days are gonna suck. Right.

Crystal OKeefe: And that’s okay. that’s,

Tom OKeefe: real. That’s what people need to hear. Absolutely.

Crystal OKeefe: We have a new artist series. Which I feel like came outta left field.

Crystal OKeefe: It did. It’s really weird. I don’t, sometimes I just don’t understand Peloton and their marketing because there was nothing about this. And it was just like, boop, we’re dropping classes. Yeah. And nothing wrong that. It’s just I don’t get why they didn’t do their whole artist thing Like, Right. like it feels like it means something, but I’ll be honest, I have no idea what it means.

Tom OKeefe: Yeah. So it’s Luther Vandross. Yeah. And I wonder if it’s because. Luther Vandross is no longer with us. And I wonder if he doesn’t have as strong of a, like, promotion team as a currently recording and touring artist.

Tom OKeefe: Obviously he has someone who manages his estate, but [00:36:00] you know, he’s still a, company if you will. But like, I wonder if, it’s like. Not as tightly managed

Crystal OKeefe: because of that. And so Peloton reached out and they didn’t And say all the other things that, that an Interscope records

Tom OKeefe: know

Crystal OKeefe: to ask for.

Crystal OKeefe: Mm-hmm. Uh, just, a theory it’s an interesting theory. I, I’m not gonna say you’re wrong.

Crystal OKeefe: I, I have no idea. I think that sounds as good of a theory as any, I just from consistency standpoint as a company, regardless of that, like why would Peloton not choose to put the same marketing

Crystal OKeefe: right.

Tom OKeefe: right. Information on it

Crystal OKeefe: out them too

Tom OKeefe: too

Crystal OKeefe: Precisely. Yeah. So that still confuses me, but I’m not saying you’re wrong.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah, that’s for sure. But

Tom OKeefe: anyway gosh, he’s got a ton of hits.

Tom OKeefe: Oh yeah. I mean,

Tom OKeefe: just a ton. Yeah. So that’ll be, that’ll be great. Yeah. And there’s a whole bunch of classes for it, despite the fact that there’s no announcement. Right.

Tom OKeefe: That’s the other weird thing is like, I [00:37:00] saw the list and it’s just massive how many classes, like, there’s been a lot of like major artists who get an artist series and it’s like there’s three classes. And,

Crystal OKeefe: this just goes on

Tom OKeefe: days

Crystal OKeefe: that like, it really looks like it’s. Was meant to be this huge high profile thing, and

Tom OKeefe: it just,

Crystal OKeefe: for whatever reason, didn’t get the push.

Crystal OKeefe: And I do not understand.

Crystal OKeefe: also, this is, I just, people on Reddit are

Tom OKeefe: are so mean. Um,

Crystal OKeefe: Um the, the things that they say about these pairings of these instructors with the different artists. Wow.

Tom OKeefe: Wow. There’s an instructor

Crystal OKeefe: that’s getting a lot of, lot of heat and it’s not Robin, so we can talk

Tom OKeefe: about that over on the bonus.

Tom OKeefe: I’m not doing it here. Okay. I don’t wanna hear about that

Crystal OKeefe: either,

Tom OKeefe: man.

Tom OKeefe: Just more incentive for you to give us your $5.

Tom OKeefe: Okay. Don’t let me forget artist series.

Crystal OKeefe: So Boflex has issued a recall of their adjustable

Tom OKeefe: Apparently they’re

Crystal OKeefe: a little bit more adjustable than [00:38:00] intended.

Tom OKeefe: intended.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah. Well auto adjust I guess. Yeah. Yeah. You’re using it and all of a sudden it falls apart. That’s a problem. I actually thought I had these, but

Crystal OKeefe: I don’t. I did too when I saw the picture.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah. They look so similar.

Crystal OKeefe: They

Crystal OKeefe: But I guess mine is Nautilus. Mine is not the boflex. I do not have them. I’m safe.

Crystal OKeefe: Do you? But these, the boflex ones are so expensive. People are saying they are so mad about this. Recall. Have

Tom OKeefe: you seen these common? No, I have not.

Tom OKeefe: these these

Crystal OKeefe: paid $500 and up for these, these dumbbells. And guess how much they’re getting back for a defective dumbbell?

Crystal OKeefe: Are they like pro rating it like you’ve had it for five years

Crystal OKeefe: 60 bucks.

Crystal OKeefe: One is one said they got 47.

Tom OKeefe: Like what is the point?

Tom OKeefe: Yeah. And, and, and so then another person chimed in and they were like,

Crystal OKeefe: this is just really shitty marketing, and they’re just making you go out and buy another

Tom OKeefe: set of Dumbo. but you don’t have to buy both

Tom OKeefe: Yeah.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah. There’s no way I would turn

Tom OKeefe: around and buy a Bowflex. But maybe it’s like if [00:39:00] you’re in their ecosystem, you want it all to match or

Tom OKeefe: something.

Tom OKeefe: I don’t know. I, dunno. Yeah. I Yikes.

Tom OKeefe: But yeah, that’s, I don’t know how they’re gonna weigh with that.

Tom OKeefe: I don’t either. I don’t either. especially,

Tom OKeefe: ’cause it’s not an item that you use up. Right? Right. Like,

Tom OKeefe: like they’ll be around

Tom OKeefe: forever. Like I get if you like buy a bag of

Crystal OKeefe: dog food

Tom OKeefe: and you, bring back a 25 bag, 25 pound bag of dog food with

Crystal OKeefe: 20

Tom OKeefe: pounds of food gone, that maybe

Crystal OKeefe: they prorate.

Tom OKeefe: But even then, like it’s their screw up. You sold them something that doesn’t work. Absolutely. Hopefully you bought it from Costco. ’cause they’ll take stuff back forever.

Tom OKeefe: Yeah.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah. Except for electronics. Yeah. Just to be clear.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah.

Tom OKeefe: So

Crystal OKeefe: we have a sad past guest

Tom OKeefe: update.

Crystal OKeefe: Ali Feller from Ali

Tom OKeefe: the Run was on episode 2 21, and I guess we talked recently.

Crystal OKeefe: It’s,

Tom OKeefe: it hasn’t

Crystal OKeefe: recently. You know what

Crystal OKeefe: it’s been? How long has it been?

Crystal OKeefe: It’s been like three

Crystal OKeefe: years. Wow. Maybe, maybe two, but it’s been [00:40:00] a long time.

Crystal OKeefe: Okay.

Crystal OKeefe: But she was battling cancer and she was in. Remission

Crystal OKeefe: and Yeah, they, they had said, she was completely clear. She did all the things. She did all the treat. Maybe it’s only been 18 months. My, my,

Tom OKeefe: please forgive me. My brain doesn’t work as well with

Crystal OKeefe: the memory as it used to, but I know she had done all the treatment and it had been several months at least since treatment was over, you know and she was in the clear

Crystal OKeefe: right.

Crystal OKeefe: And

Tom OKeefe: And now she is

Crystal OKeefe: done. Yeah, it’s, uh, she experienced some pain and she had to go check and get some questions answered and it’s just heartbreaking. They, they said that it is the breast cancer is back and it has spread to her bones and it is stage four. It is a shitty prognosis and a shitty, shitty diagnosis.

Crystal OKeefe: And, all I can say is we are just sending all of our

Tom OKeefe: love to Allie and her family. Uh, what a difficult

Crystal OKeefe: time. She’s such

Tom OKeefe: an optimistic person. Right. And she’s continued to [00:41:00] be optimistic. But gosh darn,

Crystal OKeefe: is hard to be optimistic in

Tom OKeefe: face of that.

Tom OKeefe: For sure.

Crystal OKeefe: So

Tom OKeefe: our, thoughts go out to her.

Tom OKeefe: Absolutely. And, uh, coming up after this, we’re gonna tackle content and give you some classes that,

Crystal OKeefe: it

Tom OKeefe: It should be on your radar, so stick around.

Tom OKeefe: It

Tom OKeefe: is time for the TCO top five, the scientifically researched vast classes on the platform this week.

Crystal OKeefe: Number one, your favorite walk. I think mine is by Pantera.

Tom OKeefe: Well. Yeah. Everybody else’s favorite walk was the 30 minute pride pop Walk with Maddie Mamo, where Mara showed up and uh, we had. Tons of people write in. for this one. Mara is pretty darn special, as is Maddie. And, uh, Mara had a lot to say and, uh, you know, I think there’s a lot of [00:42:00] people in the world that need to hear what Mara has to say right now.

Tom OKeefe: But, uh, Tammy Armstrong said, this is, this is my favorite quote, that this was her favorite class, hands down and Mama Mara was look and fierce. So many amazing moments paying homage, If you know, you know, to the community, uh, you have to, you have to know Mara because Mara has this, uh, very East coast accent.

Tom OKeefe: Okay? And so she’ll say things that. That, like, you know what she’s saying, but she accentuates the accent, you know? Gotcha. And so I think that’s what we got with

Crystal OKeefe: the homage. I see. Uh, number two, your favorite post run stretch.

Crystal OKeefe: So Dr. Jen Synthes in, I know her.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah, she, you sure do. Uh, she took a a five minute post run stretch that was taught by Andy Spear on April 23rd.

Crystal OKeefe: She said it’s her new favorite. She said, looking at the playlist, you can understand why 90% of the stretch is piano. [00:43:00] Man,

Crystal OKeefe: I was gonna say, he is a Billy Joel?

Crystal OKeefe: It sure is. Uh, Andy also gives some great, uh, deep hip stretches in, and he taught a standing stretch. That Dr. Jen didn’t even know was a thing, and uh, she said for someone who’s really flexible but gets tight hips from running, it is fabulous.

Crystal OKeefe: Okay. Uh, number three, your favorite row bootcamp.

Crystal OKeefe: So this was a TAG team bootcamp that was taught on May 6th by two and Adrian together and, uh, STX. Phone Earth. I don’t

Tom OKeefe: know what

Crystal OKeefe: s leaderboard is. I’m, I’m sure this is how instructors feel, right? But I’m sure it’s very clever and I’m dumb for not getting it.

Crystal OKeefe: Regardless, they said this was not a super

Tom OKeefe: tough

Crystal OKeefe: workout,

Tom OKeefe: Okay.

Tom OKeefe: But it was very fun.

Crystal OKeefe: And now they firmly believe Adrian and Tunde are the next Peloton couple.

Crystal OKeefe: mm Okay. [00:44:00] So we’re spreading rumors. Yeah. Spreading rumors. That’s a bold statement,

Crystal OKeefe: I.

Tom OKeefe: Uh,

Crystal OKeefe: number four, your favorite scenic run.

Crystal OKeefe: Don Rudy nominated this and it was a 30 minute CENIC scenic run that was from Ous Tolu, France.

Crystal OKeefe: Now this is only available on the tread or the tread plus you can’t get this through the app, so, okay. We didn’t bother including the link for that reason, but Don is currently doing physical therapy for his hamstring and his calf, so he had to find a class where he could do a three minute jog and then.

Crystal OKeefe: Follow

Tom OKeefe: that by a one minute walk and he had to repeat it. He said this was the perfect class to accomplish that, as well as pushing

Crystal OKeefe: me to plan my anniversary trip to France. I swear I saw Matt quickly pass in front of the camera and

Tom OKeefe: And finally

Crystal OKeefe: your favorite Unst, stackable. It is a ride.

Crystal OKeefe: It It is. And it was a 30 minute,

Tom OKeefe: nineties rock ride that was taught by Emma Lovewell from June 8th, and Christie Smalley nominated this ride.

Tom OKeefe: She said it was

Crystal OKeefe: fantastic. She [00:45:00] found it way more challenging than the 7.6 rating, but maybe that’s because she was tired. It had a killer playlist.

Tom OKeefe: I

Crystal OKeefe: guess, uh, now let’s take a look at this week at Peloton. Uh, we’ve got Dance Cardio with Leanne.

Crystal OKeefe: We do, yeah. This is the first time she’s either added classes or had ’em.

Crystal OKeefe: I, I thought she had done one before, but it is here. It is happening. So she’s been talking about, uh, a new project and this is it. Uh, the classes are gonna launch today on June 11th, so by the time you hear this, they will be out. Um, and they are. I mean, if you like

Tom OKeefe: dance cardio, they’re lots of fun.

Tom OKeefe: You know, these are not classes for me, but she has a, uh, background in dance and

Crystal OKeefe: theater, so they’re perfect. She’s a perfect teacher for them and people who enjoy these things. That’s great. I am not that person. I’m not coordinating and,

Crystal OKeefe: I, and one time on

Tom OKeefe: I accidentally did something that had dance cardio and I just felt like an idiot.

Tom OKeefe: I, I tried. I really tried when these first [00:46:00] came out, and as it turns out, I can’t learn a dance

Crystal OKeefe: routine

Tom OKeefe: in 30 seconds. Yeah. I am terrible at it. Just terrible.

Tom OKeefe: Isn’t it funny the way your

Crystal OKeefe: mind works? Like I like all the things I can memorize. Like, I mean, I did a whole play that I basically had to learn in in four weeks the lead of a play.

Tom OKeefe: I got

Crystal OKeefe: all those words crammed in my head, but like

Tom OKeefe: movements

Crystal OKeefe: here’s the thing, you can do it at your own pace when it’s learning a play. Yeah. You can repeat it as often as you need to. And when

Tom OKeefe: you’re doing a class, whether it’s online or in person, yeah, it’s done. They move on to the next thing.

Tom OKeefe: I don’t have it yet. Yeah. I will need about eight more times of whatever it is before I’m ready to move to the next thing. I have a, it doesn’t matter how simple it’s, I have a lot more respect for those movies where they’re

Crystal OKeefe: like, Broadway dancers auditioning for something like Chorus Line.

Crystal OKeefe: And they’re like, okay, here are the moves, blah, blah, blah. And then they bang it. out. I Know. that’s pretty,

Tom OKeefe: I mean, I know Chorus Line, they’ve already learned the moves, really. Right. But I do think [00:47:00] those

Crystal OKeefe: dancers can do

Crystal OKeefe: they can. We’ve seen it

Tom OKeefe: Yeah. Brian, we’ve watched his, we’ve watched Rehears at his school. Like he’s not as much of a dancer.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah.

Crystal OKeefe: Like, that’s not his chosen profession.

Tom OKeefe: like do a twist, do this. Kick your leg. Boom. They got, yeah. Do a chacha and you’re good.

Crystal OKeefe: crazy. Super talented.

Crystal OKeefe: So in honor of our vacation, Maddie Omo did a 30 minute Disney walk.

Tom OKeefe: You think it

Crystal OKeefe: just because of our vacation?

Tom OKeefe: cannot come up with one other plausible explanation.

Tom OKeefe: Well, he did. It was a 30 minute

Crystal OKeefe: walk. It took place on June 10th

Tom OKeefe: and uh,

Crystal OKeefe: I mean, it’s Maddie and it’s Disney. What more do you need to know? Yeah, like take the class.

Crystal OKeefe: We have a 30 minute hit after hit outdoor run, but one of those hits has two eyes.

Crystal OKeefe: Yes,

Crystal OKeefe: that is correct.

Crystal OKeefe: It’s a play on words,

Crystal OKeefe: So, and we’ve talked about this as the newest kind of version of classes that Peloton has come out with.

Crystal OKeefe: So it’s hit and then you get, you get. High intensity [00:48:00] intervals, but you also get hit music at the same time. So it’s, uh, and this is, no, this is a 30 minute outdoor run, like you said, and it dropped today, so it’s, it’s out there. Um, but it’s a fun two for one. It’s

Tom OKeefe: Kirsten and Becks. Never

Crystal OKeefe: that team before.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah. I like all these two for ones they got

Tom OKeefe: going on. Um, so that’s a lot of fun.

Crystal OKeefe: So some other classes that you might want to have on your radar.

Tom OKeefe: British Summer Fest.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah. So it’s gonna

Tom OKeefe: be new move as one class.

Crystal OKeefe: Uh, they’re gonna have Ben, Sam, Bradley, Hannah, and Leanne all coming together for one class. That’s fun.

Crystal OKeefe: Yeah. People love when you get the team up. Yeah,

Tom OKeefe: like Absolutely.

Tom OKeefe: It’s like, it’s like, uh, it’s like super friends.

Crystal OKeefe: We also have a whole host of Father’s Day classes.

Tom OKeefe: They do. Yeah. So all this weekend coming up, we’ve got

Crystal OKeefe: a row with Katie, a run with Alex, KA run with Adrian, a walk plus run [00:49:00]with Olivia and a ride with Allie.

Uh, Alex and Tunde together. They were recording a special surprise a couple weeks ago, so we gotta assume,

Crystal OKeefe: recall

Crystal OKeefe: that that is what this is.

Crystal OKeefe: And uh, and I think I [00:50:00] wanna say that is all for, I think there were some live classes too though. Nope, they all say Encore, so nothing dropping live. These are encore. I don’t know why they don’t

Tom OKeefe: call ’em premiers because they’re really just gonna drop on demand. I feel like somebody just is really. Not

Crystal OKeefe: with labeling things anymore over there, but, uh, I think these are new classes that are just dropping on demand.

Crystal OKeefe: so the songs will be in German.

Tom OKeefe: I was a German Sing along, I think of the

Tom OKeefe: songs. Oh, I mean, he teaches in German. That doesn’t

Crystal OKeefe: mean the songs will be in German.

Tom OKeefe: There’s a great

Crystal OKeefe: they will be. Yeah. But

Tom OKeefe: Benny listens to all kinds of music and plays all kinds of music in his classes. So [00:51:00] not necessarily I’m like, if it’s not too host or 99 loft balloons.

Tom OKeefe: I don’t think I could sing

Tom OKeefe: along. That’s okay. They’ve got

Crystal OKeefe: subtitles, you know, just

Tom OKeefe: just don’t take it live. You could still do it.
