The battle for the best Halloween candy continues. – Let’s talk about that. (funky music) – Good mythical morning. – It’s a big day for us. Our novel, The Lost Causes of Bleak Creek is out today! – Whoo! (crew applauds) – Scoop it up where ever you get books. Barnes & Noble has signed copies. Target has a special edition with photos and you can buy it from anywhere by visiting BleakCreek.com. Can’t wait for you to read it. – Yes. Now, today. It’s is day two of our best Halloween candy tournament which means we’re done day closer to selecting a winner and one day closer to selecting an insulin provider. – If you haven’t seen yesterday’s episode well, click on it and catch up because we’ve got eight more delectable candies to toss down our lower face holes and only four will emerge victorious. It’s time for The Bewitching Battle of the Best Halloween Candies, day two. – A quick recap if you take a look at our gastrointestinally glamorous candy bracket you’ll see that four candies have advanced to the quarter finals. Those are Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. – [Link] Butterfinger. – [Rhett] Milky Way. – And Snickers. Now we got four more spots left and the eight candies fighting for those spots are Jolly Ranchers. – [Rhett] Kit Kat. – [Link] M&M’s. – [Rhett] Swedish Fish. – [Link] Reese’s Pieces. – [Rhett] Skittles. – [Link] Twix. – And Almond Joy. – Let’s eat up. (foreboding laughter) – Our first match up is the 15th seed with 2,057 votes, Jolly Ranchers against the second seed with 9,040 votes, Kit Kat. – All right, and peng-manning the board today is Matt Lieb. Look a that. – Happy Halloween. – Are you a happy penguin? – Oh, stoked. I’m a stoked penguin who’s entire habitat is melting. (crew laughs) – Oh, wow. – There’s a message with this costume. I appreciate that. – So, you’re not wearing that just because it was the only one that was tall enough for you? – No, no, no. I’m wearing it because I just moved to North Hollywood where it’s a lot cooler than it is in my normal habitat. – [Link] Oh my gosh. – (laughing) North Hollywood. – Climate change. All right. – Jolly Ranchers, the most popular flavor according to surveys is blue raspberry. Because people love things that do not actually exist. (crew chuckles) – That’s true. I like the apple. – Let’s do a real time just sucking on Jolly Ranchers. And just no edits, no cuts. We stay here until they’re gone. – And of course over here we have Kit Kat ’cause I’m giving up on that bit. – I’m still sucking on the Jolly Rancher. – It’s gonna be forever. I would say it’s like 15 minutes. – I’d say it’s 50 minutes. I got a gentle tongue. (crew chuckles) – I don’t care. Now, here’s the thing man. (Rhett spits) (Jolly Rancher clatters) – Almost. – You got these Kit Kats and it’s just, they’re just made to be shared. – Oh yeah. – Or at least a portion for yourself. – Can I have the right one? – Here’s a fun fact. The song ♪ Give me a break ♪ was written in 1982. It was composed by Micheal A. Levine who would go on to produce all of the music for Nickelodeon’s Naked Brothers Band. – And also be Stevie’s father. – No, and. (Rhett applauds) – No, no. – [Stevie] Thank you. – One of the brothers in the Naked Brothers Band was Nat Wolff who would go on to star in Hereditary as the brother. (Rhett grunts) Spooky. And also Stevie’s brother. – Brother! (Rhett applauds) – [Stevie] Thank you. – I have not seen Hereditary. – I have. Really the part you don’t wanna play in that is the little sister (chuckles). – Okay. Kit Kats don’t taste as great with the Jolly Rancher. – Jolly Rancher is really it’s doing things for me and it’s not even in my mouth anymore. I’m just thinking about what it was like to have a blue raspberry Jolly Rancher in my mouth. – But I gotta a special place in my heart for Kit Kat because it not only tastes so good it captures comradery. – I know, I mean Jolly Ranchers. They’re stronger than the votes gave them credit for but it can’t beat a Kit Kat. Who are we kidding? – But, it’s a happy rancher. – I know, I just don’t feel like we can send Jolly Rancher through. It is a jolly Rancher, he’s– – I tried, Jolly Rancher. – a happy cowboy. – Hope we didn’t take away all your jollies ’cause Kit Kat. – Moving on. – All right. (foreboding laughter) – It’s the seventh seed with 3,136 votes, M&M’s versus the 10th seed with 2,901 vote, Swedish Fish. – Fun fact, Link. What do you think is the most popular candy in the whole world? – Swedish Fish. – No, it’s M&M’s How many M&M’s do you think come in a fun size? – I would say six. Okay, three. Six, nine 12, 13? – 13? Is that consistent across packaging? – That, that’s gotta be. – What’s the quality control here? – Three, six, nine 12, 13, 14. – 14! What? You’re being cheated! Sometimes. Or, you know what? You’re getting an extra M&M sometimes. Why are you complaining? – Someone’s being treated. How many Swedish Fish do you think are in a pack? – Seven? – Count those. – Six, what? – And then just to keep our sample size the same. One, two, three, four five. – Five, what? (crew chuckles) – Up, there’s the other one. – Six! – Six. – You know what, the Swedish the Swedish are so consistent. They would never give you different numbers. – Swedish Fish are vegan is that why you love them so much? – You know me. (crew laughs) – It’s a powdery berry. – Go on. – And then you got the M&M’s. – I like an M&M. – I don’t like ’em because they’re just too close to pharmaceuticals to me. I think that’s what it is. I just feel like it– – What? – I feel like it’s a gateway drug to drugs. (door bell chimes) – Looks like somebody’s at the door again. – Who could this be? Christine. (crew laughs) ♪ Sha la la la la, give me treats ♪ The trick if you don’t give me treats is I give you crabs, so. – Well, you’re still a couple of days early. – What? Just give the banana Laffy Taffy! (crew laughs) – She’s so eager that Christine. – She loves the candy, but timing is everything. I don’t know, did my drug argument sway you? – I’m already on team Swedish Fish anyway. I don’t have to be persuaded. – Listen. Yesterday, there’s a lot of backlash from the peanut M&M thing. Not moving forward. So, I feel like I gotta make an argument for M&M’s to move forward because they’re not my jam. – I think it was the peanut M&M’s that people really wanted to move forward and we can’t do that. I don’t know if this is really gonna make up for anything. – Regular ones aren’t as good as those. So, I’m deferring to you. I don’t wanna burst your bubble. So, you love the Swedish Fish. – So let’s keep disappointing people? – Yeah. I love for you to be happy. – Yes! We’re moving on the Swedish Fish! – [Link] You like a Swedish Fish pengman? – Well, yes. Soon it will be the only fish that is left in the environment. (foreboding laughter) – Next match up’s between seed 11 with 2,750 votes, Reese’s Pieces and seed six, with 3,896 votes, Skittles. – Skittles. – Now, they’ve done away with the fun size. Sorry to spoil your fun but there’s no more fun sized Reese’s Pieces. So, you just gotta get the biggin’ and every single package what they’re going for, they say is 50% orange, 25% brown, and 25% yellow in every package. – I can tell you right now yeah, that’s about right. – Oh, these are light on yellow. Very light on yellow. – I’ve gotta take issue with the fact that for this Halloween candy tournament if they discontinue the Halloween candy size I don’t think it’s Halloween candy at all. – Listen. I’m agreeing with you. And also let me say that the inside, the peanut butter is very good but it is not as good and it is not the same peanut butter as what you get inside of a Reese’s Cup. – The ratios that you claimed didn’t quite hold true. – Yeah, they’re light on yellow. Look how light they are on yellow here. – Mm-hmm. – All right. – Does it really matter though? – Let’s try a Skittle. How many Skittles? – I was gonna ask the same thing. I would say– – 12. – 14. – Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Four, eight– – ‘Cause this matters, too. It’s like are you gonna get enough of them to be satisfying. – 16 Skittles? – Three, six– – 16 Skittles! – 12– – Think about that. – 14. – Whoa, very inconsistent. Or maybe I counted wrong. – Okay, so there we go. We’re just gonna say there’s 15 of those. Taste the rainbow. Great slogan introduced in 1994. And if it ain’t broke don’t, don’t not taste it. – So fruity. – Mm-hm. This is a great little candy. It’s not as popular as Starburst. Based on sales. – I prefer the taste of Starburst and I also prefer the taste of Reese’s Pieces but I’m offended by them doing away with the fun size and I feel like we should punish them. – Yeah. This is not a Halloween size. It cannot move forward. It is disqualified! – Hey, out of the running Reese’s! – So, Skittles for– – Yeah! – No good reason of it’s own moves on. Look at that penguin. – Yeah, I’m allergic to peanut butter. So, I appreciate your choice here. (foreboding laughter) – And finally we have seed three with 6,635 votes, Twix versus the 14th seed, 2,259 votes Almond Joy. – The word twix, is actually a mash up of twin bix ’cause bix is what the Brits call a biscuit. – Twix is not the first thing I go to when I’m raiding my kids’ candy. But it’s very early. – It’s solid though. – It’s nice ’cause it keeps you eating chocolate but there’s enough of that cookie in there to feel like you’re kind of breaking up the experience. – Right, so you can keep eating chocolate. – Yeah. – There’s no reason (chuckles) there’s no reason there’s good reason these are really popular worldwide because they’re good. It’s a nice mixture, but. – You know, caramel can get too chewy and they’ve nailed the consistency. It’s creamy. It’s a creamy caramel. – Yeah, it melts in your mouth. – Now, Almond Joy, I know you like Almond Joy but it was the 14th seed in our worst Halloween candy tournament of last year. – I can’t help that people– – That’s gotta tell you something. – Don’t have good taste. I mean, look at this. It’s perfect. It’s a Mounds with an almond on top of it. – With a growth on it. – I love-a the coconut. – We might need to cauterize that, you know? Fun fact. – [Rhett] Give it to me. – They coat the almond in choclate and then they coat the whole thing in chocolate again. So half of the almond has double chocolate. – Double chocolate. – And that’s beautiful. The problem is that all this white stuff is coconut. – That’s not a problem if you’re like me and you like coconut. I think Almond Joy is one of the most complete candy bars ever to be made. – It’s actually not bad at all. And I don’t even like coconut. – I think it’s got a great name. I think the fact that it’s got what it makes you feel inside the name. It’s a little cue, don’t forget to feel joy when you eat this almond. – Did I like this last year? Because I’m starting to like it at least a little bit. – Coming around. – But far enough– – It’s coming around. – No, I’m sticking with Twix. – Hold on a second. This isn’t even technically a Twix. They’re single packaged. The whole idea is this twin bix, dude. This isn’t twin bix anymore. This is just a bix. One bix. – It tastes wonderful. So I’m saying Twix. – I’m on team Almond Joy. – Well, I guess we need a tie breaker. – Well, thankfully we’ve got the YouTuber of Yikes the High Priest of Horror movies and co-host of the Dead Meat podcast, deadmeatjames. (crew applauds) – [Link] All right James, come on over. – He’s happy to be here. – Yeah, I am! Ooh, there’s a little chair. – Yeah, there you go. – All right. – Hey man. – Hey, how’s it going? – Welcome to the show. – Thank you. – So we got Almond Joy and we’ve got Twix. Go ahead and break into those. We need your help. You know horror. – Yes. – So maybe that means you know which one of these scares you the most. – You were right, this kind of looks tumorous. – Exactly. You didn’t eat the pod. You gotta really get that. – Stopped short of the tumor. – You gotta really get that. – You a coconut man? – I don’t have anything against it. I feel like a lot of people just have this major grudge against it. – Right, right. Was that a horror reference? – No, but I could make one. (Link gasps and moans) It’s not the taste, it’s the consistency. Oh god. – The Grudge, remember? – Yeah right. What are you experiencing with the twin bix? Which is not technically a twin, it’s just a bix. – I do appreciate that argument, actually. ‘Cause you know, if feels like it’s missing some of it’s essence. – It’s lonely. – Yeah, right. Where’s the other one? – It’s right there in a bucket. – You know what, there’s a lot of like what is this? Cookie? In there. – [Link] That’s the bix. – That’s the bix, yeah, yeah. I think there might be a little bit too much bix. – Too much bix! You heard it here! So you’re gonna go with Almond Joy, right? – I’m trying to make up my mind here. (Rhett laughs) – But how does it taste? It tastes fabulous. – It tastes okay, but you know what? This does feel, the Almond Joy kinda feels like I’m getting all my macros in at once. – Okay, you’re going with the nutritionist angle. – I’m gonna be honest, just in case people are watching I don’t really like candy that much. (Rhett laughs) Or sweet things. But I am, you know– – Glad you’re here. – I’m a spooky expert. I’m a spooky expert. – Yeah, yeah. Hey. – You know what, think of it at a blank slate for me to judge these. – That’s good. – It sounds like you’re voting for Twix. – No, absolutely not. I’m gonna go with the Almond Joy. – Almond Joy! (Rhett applauds) Advances! Yes! – Penguin-man, what a freakin’ upset. – [Rhett] Whoo! – [James] So many people are mad at me right now. (Rhett laughs) – [Rhett] Thanks for being here, man. – [James] Thank you. – Well, there you have it. The eight final candies that will be facing off tomororw so be sure to come on back to see which one is the best of them all. – Thanks for liking, commenting and subscribing. – Now you say you know what time it is. – You know what time it is. – Hi, I’m Gia! – Hi, I’m Marita. – And the Halloween weekend in Iceland! – [Group] And it’s time to spin the Wheel of Mythicality. – Whoo! – There’s mythical beats in Iceland. – Of course. – Click the top link to watch us play a scary VR game.
