025: Kenny Kane Grit and the LA Fires

Mayhem Mission podcasts are back in 2025! In our inaugural episode, Ben sits down with CrossFit LA founder & owner Kenny Kane to discuss his home - as well as several of his members' - burning down in the LA fires, how they are responding, and what we can do to help. Kenny's wisdom, humor, and grit are evident throughout the podcast as we navigate the power of community, the spirit/body connection, and how loss is the greatest teacher. Sit back, take notes, and enjoy the show!

024: Zoe Jones

On the surface, Zoe Jones is an atypical CrossFit athlete. Having grown up in a small farm town in Michigan with no weightlifting or gymnastics experience in her athletic background, she wasn't sure where her CrossFit journey would take her. Not only has it taken her to the CrossFit Games, it has also taken her to Cookeville and the CrossFit Mayhem team. In this episode, Zoe shares about her athletic journey, bouncing around the Midwest, eventually landing in Cookeville and what she sees for her future. We hope this episode encourages you and you share it with a friend!
