Today we smell love potions of the wild. – Let’s talk about that. (groovy theme music) Good mythical morning. – Birds do it, bees do it, the wild American boar does it. – What? – Release a scent to let potential mates know that it wants to mate. It’s kind of like Bojangles fried chicken for me. – Oh wow, that’s how it works in your house? There’s not even a Bojangles out here. – No comment. – That explains why you haven’t had any children since moving to California. – No comment. – Okay, now the hunting industry has taken note of this fact that animals release these scents and they have created a whole array of things that you can apply to yourself if you’re trying to attract an animal, and we thought, well we’re not gonna apply em to ourself, but we’re gonna apply them to something and see if we can match them with the animal that they are meant to attract. It’s time for Can You Smell the Love Tonight, and Can You Guess It Right? – I am told that magical love smellicorns are going to fly down in front of us and then there are scents applied to them that we are going to smell, and then see if we can guess what animal it is supposed to attract. – Yes, and because it would be just a complete shot in the dark, we have a list of the animals that we might be choosing from, we have more than we actually will be choosing from, along with some descriptions about their mating habits, which I’ve really been enjoying. But that information will help us with our answers, with our guesses. – Yeah, so our choices are bear, wild boar, fisher cat, which is like a weasel, coy-yotes, deer, raccoon, or red fox. Coyote, if you will. – Let’s do this. (twangy country music) – Now the loser at the end of all this has to smell all these nasty smells together in the franken-scent machine hope that’s not me. – Alright, drop the smellicorn. Woah. – Oh. – Okay, now the scent is applied to the rear end because that’s where a lot of these scents come from. And just so you know, every person in here besides us has a mask, has a gas mask on right now. – I have not smelled since it dropped, I’m gonna give it a little. It’s not the most horrid thing I’ve ever smelled, but, you’re getting in close, getting in intimately. – Oh, there it is. You gotta really, gotta really. Okay, doesn’t make me feel sexy, I tell you that much, wow, it’s kinda, – It smells pee-ish. It smells like pee to me. – It smells like Barbara, pull it up. – Not a strong pee. – It smells like when Barbara has done something. – Peed on something. Yeah, so I’m gonna consult my cheat sheet here. I don’t know, it was still kind of mild at the same time. – Some mild urine smell. Well, okay, so I do know that a bear, black bear for instance, are very promiscuous, they like to pee all over the place, the ladies like to pee all over the place to draw as many men in as possible. – That’s not helping me. – And I kind of feel, but that doesn’t smell like bear pee, that smells like small animal pee. – Wild boar also release pheromonal urine, so do deer. – I feel like, I have a guess, just because I feel like this is dainty pee, this is a little dainty pee. – Yeah, me too. – [Stevie] Okay, three, two, one. – Deer. – Deer. Oh we agree, it runs all down their legs is what I’m reading, gross. – [Stevie] This is a urine-based lure meant to indicate sexual ripeness and territorial bounds to provoke the attentions of a wild boar. – Oh really, that’s boar pee? – Wild boar. Pheromonal urine for the loss. (twangy country music) Okay, bring in the smellicorn. Oh, there she is. – Oh gosh. – You smell it first, I’m not breathing yet. (retching) – Ewwwhhh. – That bad? – I need to get, I need to know what it is, though. – Let me get a, let me get in there. – I can’t, I don’t feel like I can get close enough to make a determination about anything. – (retch) Oh gosh, it’s sweet. – Oh, it’s sweet. (retching) I never thought I’d see you pull up a unicorn’s tail and say, it’s sweet. – I mean, that is where the rainbow comes from, right? It doesn’t have, it has like a high sweetness to it. – Okay, I feel like if I discuss what I think about this one I’m gonna be giving my answer away, but I, – It seems glandular and nor urinar. – Urinar? – It’s not a urinar. – It’s not a Uranus. – Oh gosh, there’s some glandular, like anal gland stuff happening with the fisher cat. – I don’t know what a gland smells like, though. – I think it smells bad, but not like a pee. – When you take your dog to the groomer, that’s an option like for two dollars extra they express the anal gland. How does it express itself though? – They’ll do the, it expresses itself when they do the butt scoop. – But what is it saying, what is it trying to say? – Well if you’re a fisher cat, it says, come with me. – Okay, alright, I’ve got my guess. – [Stevie] Okay, three, two, one. – Raccoon. – fisher cat. – [Stevie] This is a shellfish-based lure, effective in mimicking the food-centered breeding grounds of the raccoon. – Yes, I knew it was food, it smelled-ed like, it smelled-ed, it smelled-ed like a dumpster. – It smelled like a dumpster to you? – And I knew that they did it in the breeding, their feeding grounds. Their breeding grounds are the feeding grounds. – Ew, well good on you Rhett. (twangy country music) – Okay drop the corn. Link, have at it. – I’m afraid that with such momentum, – Oh gosh, it’s got, oh, it’s got stainage. It’s got a stain. – Oh no. (retching) Oh gosh, oh my golly. Golly wolly gee, oh, that made the top of my head tingle. – Now first of all, the ones that come from animals that we’re using only the natural stuff, so we’re not using synthetics, so this, if it comes from an animal, this is from an animal. – That was horrifying, because what I thought was an anal gland was really just shellfish-based raccoon dumpster food. (retching) I know, it’s bad, yeah, aim for your mug brother. – Once you get it man, – Yeah, it’s like your body says get it out. – Look at it, though, it’s got, I feel like there’s information in the visual. What does that look like it came from? – This has got to be the anal gland one. – It just feels like, man, how, how could you, take it away, take it away. – Oh gosh. – How could you be attracted to that? – Instant headache. – I don’t, I’m glad I’m a human, man. – You’re a twisted animal man. Doing wild things. – I mean I like a good cologne, a good fruity perfume, but I don’t like that. – I’ve smelled coyote urine before, and that was bad. I think this might be coyote gland scent, I don’t know. – I got a guess. – [Stevie] Three, two, one. – Red fox. – Red fox. Yeah, I was trying to lead you. – [Stevie] This is a gland-based lure containing an enormous amount of blended and aged scents to quickly attract a red fox. – I tried to lead you off, but you weren’t going. – The reason we knew that is because we knew that they become incredibly pungent, and they mix it with the urine, but we didn’t wanna, neither of us wanted to say anything because we didn’t wanna lead each other. – Oh man, what do you want for lunch, are you getting hungry? – Red fox gland. (twangy country music) – Okay, drop it. – Oh man. – Let’s see if this one’s got a brownie on its back. No. – No brownie. You want me to go? – Yep. – It is a little gelatinous, though. Oh, wooooahh-kay. But you know what, that is a more, it’s a more familiar smell. That smells like the farm center of the state fair, you know? That was my favorite part of the state fair was to go and see all of the backsides of the cows. And then the butter sculpture, that was the highlight of that part. Take it away. – Take it a-, get rid of her. To me that feels like, – That’s definitely a urine. – Urine in the nose. – That is definitely a urine. – It’s got a pungent, sour, man, I wouldn’t rub that on me. – But it’s almost an agricultural urine smell. I’m just going based on state fair experience, which I have a lot of. – You’re thinking about a farms, coyotes? – Yeah, have you been to a coyote farm? – Oh yeah, it’s very unpredictable there. – Uh, okay. – [Stevie] Okay, three, two, one. – Deer. – Deer. – [Stevie] This is another urine-based lure taken specifically from a sexually mature, in heat doe. – Yeah. – Yeah. – Hey man, – Can’t get ahead on you. – We’re good at this, we should work for the companies. We should work for the companies that test the scent. – Are you volunteering? My eyeballs are hurting. – No, I’m saying my resume is out there. (twangy country music) – Uhhhh, okay, it all comes down to this one. If I beat you, if I beat you in this round, that means we both have to endure the franken-scent. If you get it right, and I get it wrong, I have to do it alone. – It smells so bad in here already. – Drop it. – What in the? – Gosh, makes me angry. I’ve never smelled anything that made me wanna punch myself in the face. – Go ahead and do it, it might help you. It’s putrid. – It’s like a skunk. – It smells like skunk. It smells like a skunk. – It smells like a dag-gum skunk butt. – I feel like my lungs are burning. I feel like my chest is starting to hurt. – (retches) When you get close to it, it smells like, – Woah, woah, woah. – Aaaahhhhhhhh! – Hey man, don’t let the smellicorn swing, that’s the number-one rule of having a smellicorn hanging between yourself. – When you get close to it, it smells like fuel. It smells like a heinous fuel. – Well maybe, maybe we can, heinous fuel, or anus fuel? – Both, I feel the anus. Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness. – Oh gosh, oh wow, it does. – Take it, take it away. – It smells like construction, it smells like road construction. – Yeah, like ass-phalt. Asphalt construction, or like a paper plant. – I know whose fault it is. – Oh gosh. – Okay, I can’t imagine that coming from anything smaller than a mammoth. – A bear, a cat, a fisher cat, or a coyote. – Mammoth is not on here, mammoth is not on here. Blue whale, like you gotta have such a large animal that it’s squeezed down to its essence, that’s what that smells like. – Bears are gross. – [Stevie] Okay, here we go. – Coyotes are desperate. – [Stevie] Three, two, one. – Fisher cat. – Fisher cat. Dang it. – [Stevie] This is pure genuine skunk quill, which mirrors the combined breeding and eating locations of the fisher cat. – Yeah! – So that was actual skunk? – [Stevie] It was actual skunk and Link, you have to endure the punishment. – Hey, first of all, we were both really, really good at this, I was a little bit better, but hey man, you should feel good about yourself. Yeah, you’re gonna have to smell all those scents, but you should feel good, you’re really good at this. – Yeah, I’m so good at this.
