In the 50 meter back, Hunter Armstrong won as a clean athlete.

And the big flop was James Magnuson.

I mean, he was sort of the athlete that everyone was looking towards to be this beast that was going to break the world record in the 50 freestyle.

He's the guy who ballooned up gigantic and realized he was too big and then spent time narrowing his body down.

And he was really not even a factor in the pool at all.

In weightlifting, in the deadlift, Thor Bjornsson and Mitchell Hooper both failed at trying to hit 510 kilograms, which I guess would have been a world best.

Cersei's going to be pissed.

There was nothing really outstanding to note, and it seemed like the people that were

most successful with these enhancements were the older athletes who were putting in performances that approximated what they could do when they were younger.

In the pool, there were some personal bests, but again, you have to ask yourself, how much did the suit come into play?

But other than that, you can really make the argument that it was a big, giant nothing burger.

I love the fact that Brian Johnson was the color commentator here.

When he showed up at that desk with the umbrella, I laughed out loud.

I thought it was hilarious.

He is a very talented meme lord, of course.

He knows exactly what he's doing to garner attention and create discourse and kind of be provocative.

And I like that about Brian.

I think that his sort of vampiric persona and ethos and the way he carries himself and the way that he is so transparent about what he's doing is certainly high entertainment.

I've spent time with him.

I had him on the podcast.
