I really miss “Beers w/ Chad.” Here’s what I want - a follow up to the “Beers w/ Chad - Nate edition” The previous one was probably the best entertainment I watched through the entire Covid lockdown. I laughed so hard. For the follow up I’m not talking a zoom meeting, but an in-person meeting w/ Nate/Chad facing each other sitting at a table. Nate will of course drink way too much (like he did last time) because 1). - he’s competitive and wants to drink more than Chad, and 2). - he does everything to the extreme - just one of the reasons we love him so much. After polishing off a bottle of wine Nate will challenge a sober Chad to a push up contest, where Chad will beat him. Nate will then drink more wine, thinking this will make a difference w/ the pushups, and the episode will eventually end with Nate/Chad hugging it out - and a drunk crying Nate saying “I love you Chad!” before he throws up. Thoughts?

> I am so sorry to hear about Chad’s departure from TR. cry I admire him as an athlete, coach ,deep dives into complex studies, and his sense of humour. I will miss him on here, and feel disappointed that TR just made a very brief announcement about his departure. There was no mention of all the hard work and dedication he gave to TR, to us, the coachees, and the fact that he was a valued team member who helped bring TR the success it has today. It would be good to see some gratitude shown (…

🤪 I thought the was the entire point of this fantasy edition of Beers w/Chad & Nate… have it be the redemption edition.

We both got it too, but reality & pragmatism tend to beat out fantasy & wish lists.

I know, we all miss the deep dive specificity of Chad’s input, he was the backbone of the believable detail. I understand it’s an internal TR matter though.

No, we “all” don’t….some of us found them incredibly boring. 🤷‍♂️
