GMM 1791: Leaving Things In Febreze For A Month (Experiment)

What happens when you leave fish in Febreze for a month? – Let’s talk about that. (“Good Mythical Morning” theme) Good Mythical Morning! – On this show, we’ve seen horrible things. We’ve tasted terrible things. We’ve smelled nasty things. And we do all these things so you don’t have to. You see, it’s a service that we provide. – And today we may be smelling some more nasty, but maybe not if the power of Febreze, not a sponsor, proves to hold sway for 30 days. So let’s head on over to the shelf that we leave things on, which we call The Shelf That We Leave Things On. – We’ve done Coke, bleach, air, Guinness, salt, pool water, nail polish remover, mouthwash, champagne, Shamrock Shakes, and Irish whiskey a ’93 Infinite G20, margaritas, dirt, wine, glow sticks, citric acid, Red Bull, and even eggs! But today we’re gonna do, wait for it, Febreze. It’s time for Left On a Shelf, Febreze edition. (woman screams) – The Mythical crew has left things in Febreze for a month and now we’re gonna find out what happened. And if we get three or more right, we finally get our Febreze degrees, right? – Yeah, I’ve always wanted a Febreze degree. – It ain’t easy to get a Febreze degree. – And if we don’t get at least three right, we don’t get Febreze degrees. I mean, it’s very simple. It’s either we get ’em or we don’t get ’em. (woman screams) Okay, so we’ve got some fish, I’ve been told it’s mahi mahi. – Link A dolphin? – Well, they call it dolphin, but it’s the fish, it’s different. We wouldn’t have real dolphin on this show, Link, unless we were just being its friend. (laughs) – Maybe riding it, can we ride a dolphin? – No, you can’t do that. – No, just- – You can only just interact in the wild. – On their terms. – So we couldn’t have one in here, ’cause this isn’t the wild. – All right, so the fish dolphin. – And an air freshener. Which one of these lost its smell like a scratch and sniff Playboy Magazine at a middle school boys slumber party? Scratch and sniff? (laughs) – Does it exist? That’s a good idea! (laughs) – Man, what a great idea. Hey, let’s do that. Somebody write that down. Next year that’s what we’re releasing. – Now, so we got fish that… It doesn’t stink in this form. It’s not like you pulled it right out of the ocean, it’s been butchered. But, after a while, you know that’s gotta stink. 30 days? – Just so we’re all on the same page here, the ingredients in Febreze are water, alcohol, water comma alcohol, and odor-eliminator derived from corn. – Okay. – Y’all got, there’s an odor eliminator that you can get out of corn and we didn’t know it? – Yeah, just, that explains why Febreze smells like corn. – It’s going to be hard – I can’t imagine- – [Rhett] To tell if this lost its smell because it’s gonna smell like Febreze already. – It has a smell and then it, yeah, and then it would smell like Febreze. It wouldn’t- – Well, it smells like vanilla. So if it no longer smells like vanilla… – Is that what we’re doing, guys? Does it smell like vanilla? – Yeah. – Okay. – Yeah, it’s gotta be the air freshener, right? I mean, the fish is still gonna smell like fish. – Okay, so let’s- – We’re going with B, air freshener. – [Link] Revealing both of these. You wanna… – Well, let’s open up the fish first. – [Link] Yeah. – [Rhett] I mean, we’ll know right off the bat. (imitates dolphin) – Dolphin impersonation. Oh! Oh! – Does it still… Okay, close it back up, close it back up, close it, oh, don’t spill it, close it back up, don’t spill it! You got some on me. (Link screaming) Oh gosh, it smells. Well, that’s the worst thing… That’s making me rethink all things scratch and sniff. – What, what? – [Chase] Open the Febreze. – Okay, yeah, that’ll help. That’s a good idea. (both laugh) Chase is like, “Uh”. (lid clatters) – Do you want me to- – You got the tangles, the tongles? – Tweezy? – Oh, the short tweezies. (Stevie laughs) – Oh! – Well here, just a specimen. – [Link] Gotta get the rest of it, man. – I smell no vanilla. – This thing, I gotta be real gentle with it. It wants to disintegrate. – Oh man, I can still smell that fish. – I know. – You smell any vanilla?. – No, I just smell Febreze. God, but I smell fish, too. – Oh it stinks over there so bad. (laughs) (crew laughs) – Do it over here. – Okay. – Smell it there. No vanilla, just Febreze. – Yeah, but I’m smellin’ that fish now. – You know what, I’ma drape this over that. – All I know is we were right. (woman screams) – We got an onion, we’ve got jars of Febreze, we’ve got time, and we’ve got a question. After a month, soaking a raw onion in Febreze, will cutting it make us cry like 2020? (Rhett and crew laugh) – That’s- – No other options, yes. – Yeah, yeah, will it make us cry like 2020? – Yeah, solidarity, we’re all in this together. Oh gosh, man. So, we’ll get through it. – Now when I can cut an onion. – This will help. – And when I cut an onion, I normally cry, but there’s some chemical compound, some sulfur situation. – Sulfur situation number three, I think. – Yeah, and the question is, is something that’s in water, no, alcohol, (hums), corn? – Isn’t there some technique? – Can corn cancel it out? – If you spray Febreze in your eyes, then you don’t cry when cutting an onion. – Right, yeah. – I think is what I’ve heard. – Just soaking an onion in water for a month, alone, would get rid of it because it leaches out the stuff that would make it make you cry. – All right, let’s check it out. (onion thuds) We are saying that it will not make us cry. – And just to prove that we do cry, if we don’t cry with this, we’ll cry with the real thing. You know, Link, typically you’re not allowed to handle a knife on this show. You always look at it like something, like a little boy who’s just found a match. – It’s just, it’s like danger. It’s like playing with really sharp fire. – It’s just, it’s a knife, it’s a cutting tool. But you have been trained by watching a Rachel Ray video. – Yeah, I don’t actually remember how to do it. I think you cut it- – Don’t worry about that. Let’s take this one. – I’ve forgotten. – It doesn’t really matter- – Well, first of all it got a lot smaller. – Yeah, it shrunk, that wasn’t an option. – And, also… That smells strong, like the onion scent. There’s a Febreze scent that then is overpowered by an onion scent. – I think you just cut it any way you want, ’cause you’re really just trying to release the compound if it’s still in there. – We did it like this- – You cut it in half on the root, yeah. – Cut it in half. Oh, it’s hard to cut. Look at me, I’m using a knife! – Hey, hey, hey, don’t get so excited, don’t get so excited. – And now- – And then you cut that. – If you wanna see me learn how to do this, it’s on our vlog channel. And then there was- – That was optional. Don’t really have to do that. – It’s real rubbery. – Just start choppin’ it! Get your face down next to it. – Well, I need to take my glasses off. Can you take, I got… You don’t want- – This has just gotten, this has just gotten too difficult. – Thank you. (knife chopping) – Get your face down there. See, now, would you normally cry around an onion? – I don’t know. – I would. – [Link] It’s very tough, it’s toughened. – Nothing’s happening, man, and my eyes are right up on it. Get the real onion. Well, that was also a real onion. We’re not using prop onions. (crew laughs) You make me so nervous, man. Everything looks so difficult. – Here, you take over and maybe it’s the knife. – Yeah, we need a better knife for sure. But just start that now. – Get over it, get over it. – Yeah, now I’m gonna- – You’re too far away. – Oh yeah, immediate, immediate. Oh, oh! (stammers) – What? – Immediate, immediate cry. I’m gonna be okay because we were right. (bell dings) We were right! (woman screams) – I wanna remind you to check out the Mythical Society.

Oh, that’s low. That’s low, oh, come on, that’s low. – Is it the gummy bears or the Hershey’s kisses? Now I know that Febreze is, I mean, it’s mostly water, but then you got alcohol. I mean, there’s a whole type of a… (stammers) That one, what was wrong with that one? (gags) That one’s freakin’ raw in the middle. – These are soft-boiled because that’s fancy. (laughs) (Link groans) – I’ve never had a soft-boiled egg. – No, you have, you just did. (Link gags) I mean. (laughs) – I wasn’t expecting that. Good golly! Oh my flamers! – Unbelievable. – I can’t even think. (Rhett laughs) Oh, you got- – It gushed. – You got something on your lip, ugh. – It gushed, man. – Yeah, yeah, we knew that was gonna happen. In fact, a second ago, Chase came up to me and he said, “Hey, this time, the eggs are softboiled.” (Rhett and crew laugh) – I didn’t even know that was a thing. I thought… – No, it’s a thing, it’s a good thing. – I think the gummy bears…(gags) (Rhett and crew laugh) It just gushed. – Hey, open, open up – Oh. (both laugh) See, that was a trust exercise. – I almost did it. – Now, you fall. – When you opened, I almost reflexively sprayed Febreze right into your mouth. – I saw a little bit of a… (grunts) – It’s got, gummy bears have dissolved before on this show. Gummy bears don’t have a lot of resiliency. They don’t have a membrane, they are what they are. – All right, so let’s reveal. We are saying it’s the gummy bears that are gone. So this one should be empty. – Right, right. (Link sighs) – Yes. – All right, we’re right. (bell dings) – Fish in there and make sure there’s no gummy bears. – Expectations are so important when eating. (crew laughs) – I was just waiting for it, I was waiting for it. As soon as you bit into it. – You want it to be solid and it gushes. There ain’t nothing in there, man. We’re totally right. Let’s check out how much of this chocolate. – There’s a lot of residue on the bottom. – [Link] Let’s just do this. – [Rhett] Yeah, just pour it on the tray. Oh, but they expanded. They got jumbo sized, look at that. – [Link] Look at that. We have manufactured extra large- – If you wanna make your Hershey’s kisses extra big before you eat them, soak them in Febreze for a month. – [Link] Look at that. – That’s appetizing. I kinda wanna lick it. – Oh. – What does it smell like? Chocolate? – Chocolate. – Chocolate, but very clean chocolate. (woman screams) – We got some trick birthday candles, light her up. All right, so here’s our options. Will the trick candle, that’s been soaked in sa-breeze. – Sa-breeze, it’s the new version. – Get lit like a Florida beach during lockdown? (laughs) – Yeah. – Or become useless like the AMC Theaters gift card I got for Christmas? – Oh wow, yeah. It’s effecting us all. – Does it, I wanna prove this is a trick candle. – Well, blow it out. – There’s no, what? – Blow it out. – Oh, is that how? (crew laughs) – Yeah, that’s the trick we’re waiting for. – I am a sheltered person. I don’t know what a soft-boiled egg is. – Never had soft-boiled eggs, never seen a trick candle. – I thought it would start sparking. – It sparks a little bit, but that’s just an effect of, there you go, it’s magic, look. (blows air) – So what it, you know how it works. It’s got a compound in it that is sparking and it’s enough to relight it. And so that’s why you see sparks while it’s burning sometimes. – Oh. – [Rhett] So maybe we should- – [Stevie] Maybe we should put that one out. – It’s so much fun. – [Stevie] Just smoosh it. Smoosh it on the tray. – Grab it hard, grab it hard, grab it hard with your hands. It’ll go out, it’ll go out. Grab it hard with your hands. – You grab it hard with your hands. – You gotta… – Oh, now it’s a fire. Oh, look at that. – That’s not gonna come back on, now. – We can save that for later. – Okay, does it still light after it’s been in Febreze for a month? – Yeah, definitely. – Well, Febreze is just water and alcohol. – I mean, it’s mostly alcohol. The whole thing might go up in flames. You guys ready for this? – Yeah, it’s still, gonna light. It’s gonna get lit. – Open it, pull it out. – [Rhett] Oh, they wouldn’t, they wouldn’t put us in danger. – I, if you, if your hand catches on fire, – If my whole hand’s on fire, – I wanna be the one to say I did it. – I’m gonna throw them at you. (lighter clicks) (flame sizzles) Okay, one of them is lit. They’re all lit, okay. – Florida beach during lockdown. – This is still gonna work. We said it would, right? – There’s a lot of flames. Blow it out. (blows air) See if it comes back. – Took away the trick. – It de-trick-ifies it. (buzzer rings) – If you’ve got a load of trick candles… – And you don’t want ’em to trick. – And you’re not into tricks, – [Both] Soak it in Febreze. – For 30 days. – Think about all the things that we’ve learned today. – Three for four. – That’s all I took to get a Febreze degree, where’s it at? – Thank you, Chase! Rhett McLaughlin, I’m pleased to present to you, and to myself, a master’s in Febreze-iology. – And, of course, we also left Link’s glasses in Febreze for a month. – Huh.
