In this episode of In Pursuit, Rich Froning sits down with Trent Ellis, ex-Marine, outdoorsman, and rising social media voice, whose mix of grit, humor, and authenticity has built him a loyal following. Trent opens up about his journey from small-town Mississippi dreams of football, to deployments overseas, to finding peace and purpose back in the woods. He shares how hunting with his brother shaped his early years, why fitness and preparation matter in the backcountry, and how storytelling on social media (and now stand-up comedy) has given him a new platform to inspire others.From lessons learned in the Marines to the joy of making memories with his own kids in the outdoors, Trent reminds us that living authentically isn’t about chasing the spotlight—it’s about keeping your priorities rooted in family, faith, and the wild.

In this episode of In Pursuit, Rich Froning sits down with Richard Ryan, co-founder of Black Rifle Coffee, author of The Warrior’s Garden, and regenerative agriculture advocate. They dig into the hidden costs of the attention economy, why stepping away from social media can reset your priorities, and how gratitude and community drive resilience. The conversation also ties directly into the backcountry: exploring how hunting offers a rare chance to disconnect, get uncomfortable, and rediscover what truly matters. From raising bison to building companies, Ryan shares hard-won lessons on focus, purpose, and living with intention in the wild and at home.

8/27/2025 After a week away (Because somebody forgot the memory chip at home(me) we are back in action and we have three main topics that we covered. The title might give one of those three away, but you have to listen to see the real meaning behind why that is a legit question. Second, we talked about how to handle having bad days at the gym and why it's okay for it to happen. Third, we go over why standards are so important to our gym culture and why we think that it has been so refreshing lately with our athletes buying in to why standards are so important.

In this special episode, I'm sharing a compilation of some of my favorite conversations with five of the most decorated athletes in CrossFit Games history: Rich Froning, Tia-Clair Toomey, Mat Fraser, Katrin Davidsdottir, and Annie Thorisdottir. These episodes span the past ten years of the podcast—starting with my very first recording ever, with Rich Froning. It's been incredible to reflect on how much the show has evolved, and even more powerful to revisit the insights these champions shared. We talk about their mindset towards competition and pressure: what drove them to the top of the sport, what continues to fuel their training, and the habits behind their success. Whether you've been following the podcast from the beginning or just tuning in, I hope you enjoy this look back at some of the most inspiring conversations I've had with the Fittest on Earth.
