We can tell what’s made by mom and what’s made by pros. Right? Let’s talk about that. Good Mythical Morning. Not to toot our own horns, but we’ve proven that we’re pretty good at figuring out mom made food versus Mythical Kitchen made food. That’s right. But I think we forgot something in this little experiment. What’s that? Dads cook too. Oh, yeah, we do. We can’t be sure of our hypothesis without expanding the test subject. I concur. Good thing we’ve got moms and dads cooking today. It’s time for Parents against Pros, AKA Jeopardizing Crew Members Familial Relationships. Kevin. Oh, what’s up, Kevin? Good to see you. Hey, guys. Since when did we let you on the show? Every two years or so. Yeah, every two years. How long has it been? When you bring your dad. It’s been almost ten years. It’s almost a decade. Yeah. Look at this guy. We’ve been through a lot. Still making lives Mythical. Okay. All right. I see we got some rolls here. And one is made by your father. That’s right. Who I see sitting over there. Right there. He looks happy right now. Yeah, he sure does. Let’s see if that continues. All right, let’s see the video that he submitted. Hi, I’m John Kostelnik, the father of and the reason for Kevin Kostelnik being so funny and smart. I’m here today cooking ořechová roláda, which is Czechoslovakian for walnut roll, and keeping up with nutty, I just have to say, Kevin is pretty lucky because he lived most of his life being happy, fun loving, and really nutty, which now today, he has a job. It’s fun loving, happy, and really nutty. Yes, very. Bon appétit. Very nutty. Very, very nutty. That was kind of. That was kind of a sweet, proud father moment. It was very endearing. Yeah. Now, there is a little bit of an outtake. Oh, do we have that? He doesn’t know this. I would love to see this. It was, like, great. He did this in one take, I think. Okay. This is the little aftermath. What else do I say? Oh, he’s nutty. And, what did I call him? Nutty, and? I just thought the nutty to a walnut roll. Happy. No. Yeah. Fun loving. Fun loving, happy and nutty. Okay, so is the filming okay? Is it good? You think that’s good enough to send in? Lighting’s good. Is it really? At the end, he said, let’s go show mom. So I wonder where? I wonder where you get your nutty from. Can’t tell. All right, so what was the proper name for this thing? I. Nut roll. You just call it nut roll. What did you call it? Ořechová roláda. Ořechová. Ořechová roláda. Walnut roll. Now, I gotta tell you, I mean, they look kinda different. Yeah. One of these is a proper roll, and one of these is all over the place. Lily, did you have anything that you wanted to say about this? I wanna wait until you try it first. Oh, okay. All right. Okay. So I’ve been working on the show for ten years now. And about six months or so ago, my dad calls me like ten at night. And he says, hey, those guys, Rhett and Link, I said, yeah, they’re pretty funny, huh? Like, dad. I’ve been working here for almost ten years. Those guys. And this is what you call me to tell me? So anyways, he’s so happy to be here. It took us a while to. To win you over. No, just when I first saw you. On Roku. Oh, yeah. You’re a fan of Mythical twenty-four seven. Oh, yes. It’s fantastic. This is what it took. This right here. This is good. Yeah. It’s not completely perfectly rolled, but this is good. Now, we had one of these on the show years ago that was also already from years ago. Cause it was three years old when we had it. It was frozen. It was. It was. With the cake’s guy. My dad’s recipe. It makes nine of these, which, sorry, Lily, but my grandma would make them and send them to us. Okay. And I would eat some, and then I would forget and put them in the freezer. So one sat there for three years, and that’s what you ate. And you, I think, said it tasted like a thrift store. You know how they smell. So I now know what I mean. This does not taste like a thrift store. They taste pretty similar. It’s just the form factor is a little different. This one’s a little too perfect. They taste almost the same. I think the uglier one tastes better. Little fact about my dad that might help. He can’t smell or taste. True. So what do you go on when you’re making these things? Forty years of eating them. Okay, tradition. But never tasting them? Never tasting. Not for six years, you know? He lost his sense to do both of that. This is very good. Gotta go back. They’re both really good. Do you know? I for sure know. You for sure know. Oh, yeah. If he’s ever looked at it while he’s eating. He would know the difference. That’s a good point. Either his dad does this, or his dad does this. So are we voting for the one that doesn’t taste as good because he can’t smell? No, we’re doing the one that we think is made by his dad. That’s right. Which one do you think tastes better, Link? you said this one tastes. The ugly one. I think they taste almost identical. But only slightly. Okay, hand over Kevin’s dad’s nut roll in three, two, one. No. So he got the roll down, according to Kevin. I’m sorry, John, we have no confidence in your ability to roll things. He can roll nuts, man. I’ll tell you what. All right. Okay, Lily. Kevin’s absolutely right. Lily, you made the ugly one? I’ve never been so culinary challenged with this recipe. I’ll say in the directions, it says, knead well until dough doesn’t stick to your hands. If still sticky, add a little more flour. I had to add three additional cups of flour to get it to, like, even a dough stage. It was soup when I mixed it. So. John, you got any comments on that? I think the whole milk makes it a little bit fattier, which probably is what you’re tasting. I use two percent. Sorry. He was so worried about the recipe. He had so much stress leading up to this. Because he was worried about how much work Lily had to do. Yours is perfect. I’m sorry. I underestimated. I was thinking that I was voting for your dad, so I was. They taste pretty much the same. I think yours is a little bit better, John. Thanks. It definitely looks better. I didn’t want to say that until I knew that it was yours. You gotta taste the one with a lot of nuts in it, too. Okay. So this is low nuts? Yeah. You can spread it out the way you want. I usually make mine a little bit thicker. Yeah, he kept the one that had the most nuts in it. Never went to culinary school? No. Never worked in a restaurant environment? I’m not impressed with myself. Never made a living off of making food for people to see as well as maybe eat. All right, well, relationship is intact. That’s right. I don’t know about this one. It’s a little shaky. Welcome. Kalyn and Karley, the sisters who work here. But we haven’t had you on the show as sisters yet. Yeah, what is that about? Mythical sisters. Yeah, it’s been two years since Karley started working here. Wow. Why did we wait this long? I have no idea. Because we didn’t have your mom’s chili. Here it is. I’m actually really excited about. All right. You got a video? Hello, I’m Audrey. I’m Kalyn and Karley’s mom. And today, I picked Santa Fe chili to make because it’s the only thing that all of my kids will eat. A fun fact about Kalyn, when she was in high school, she won a scholarship for her metal work, for a copper bracelet she made. And fun fact about Karley, she is an awesome artist, and she does large scale paintings. For both of them, they can quote anything. SpongeBob. So I can always listen with the sound down. I know y’all like SpongeBob because when you found out that I never watched it, you were crushed. It’s insane! Because it’s just like. You almost quit. It’s been on for, like, twenty-five years. You’ve never seen it? Yeah, it’s embarrassing. Yeah, like. I will say, maybe Link’s dad and your mom can hang out. Because they both like to film in the wilderness. Your mom has figured out how to focus. Not quite as pixelated, but. Santa Fe. Shall we? Can you. First of all, there’s a distinct visual difference in these. Can you just look at it and tell, like, do you think, you know. Just by looking? This has got bigger pieces. I have an idea. I have an idea. But, like, just generally, like, this one looks a little thicker and this one looks a little thinner. Maybe we’ll do a little stirage. The corn is really standing out. We cannot go home. Oh, yeah. How do you feel about that, mom? You seem like you’re very proud of your daughters. Based on that. I am. I can never see you ever getting upset with either one of them. I don’t know. She seemed a little upset in the woods, kind of a little stern. This is the only thing that all of my kids will eat. There’s five of us. Yeah, five mouths a feed. It’s a lot of different opinions. That’s really, really good. Like, we all love pickles, but she doesn’t like olives. But I love olives, so, like. I love tomatoes. I love tomatoes. You don’t like tomatoes? Yeah. Did you just make me part of the family? If you want to, you can come to a family reunion. That’s cool. There’s six of us now. Okay. A lot of corn. I like corn. Famously. So all the ingredients sort of stand out on their own. In that one. In this one. And that one. This one. This one is melded together more. Like, you can literally see all the ingredients. I feel like I’m tasting individual things. I’m so nervous. What would you say is the difference? Well, I mean, like, normally, I feel like ours isn’t quite as thick. We don’t know, though. They’re both good. I would eat both bowls. This one has more of a chili flavor. This one has more of the burger grease in it, I think. In a good way. Yes, but I’m worried that it’s just newer. I think I know. You think you know. I think I do, but I’m worried. You’re scared. Yeah. I’m just worried that, like, it’s just a time difference. Yeah. She’s already not smiling. Look at her not smiling. She’s so. She’s just steaming over there. But this is my favorite meal ever. We always have it when we come home. I believe it has healing properties. True. So I think that I know by now. All right, so that means Kalyn’s gotta vote first. Oh, my gosh. I’m really. We’re all gonna vote at the same time. I don’t want Kalyn to copy her sister. Okay. Well, then, we should go at the same time. Yep, yep. Here we go. After. Okay. I’m going for the one that I like slightly better. Three, two, one. We’re all over here. So the sisters are in agreement. I assume that you’re right. You like that one a little bit more, huh? I didn’t, no. I like them equally. I don’t know what to say. I know my momma’s cooking. The chili. This is better. Made by Kalyn, and Karley’s mom is on Link’s side. Yes. Oh, God. Y’all did it. Oh, my gosh. That would be so embarrassing if we were wrong. I was just worried that, like, since this one is thicker and, like, my mom made it yesterday, I was worried that, like, oh, it just, like, had more time to absorb. The flavor profile, But, yeah, this is just, like, immediately, it’s like. Eating it right off the stove. This is more. This does taste more stereotypical chill. Yes. Rhett, what do you have to say for yourself? Yeah. Look at my mom in the eyes. I thought this one was excellent. I thought that one was excellent. I’m just trying to be an individual Link, I can’t help but notice the shirt that you’re wearing. What does it have on the back? You’re talking about the Good Mythical Mycology tee? Oh, yes, mycology. The study of mushrooms. Mushrooms. We have all kinds of punny, Good Mythical Morning mushroom names on the back of this thing. This comes in the long sleeve. Also comes in the short sleeve. Mauve. Mauve? Is it mauve? Is that how you say that word? Mauve. “Move”? Mauve. Mauve? “Move”. Mushrooms. Get it at mythical.com. All right. Gwynedd. What is this, Gwynedd? This is pastiera. Made by? Like the Italians say. Made by my dad. One of them. I mean, one of these. One of your dads? You got two dads? One of my dads. Hey, ain’t nothing wrong with that. There’s nothing wrong with that. Nothing wrong with that. That’s cool. That’s cool. So which dad made it? No. The best one. All right. Is your dad here, though? My dad’s not here. He lives in Florida. Okay. All right, that’s honest. Did he make a video? He made a video. Let’s see. And he told an embarrassing story, so. Okay. I’m John. Today I’m preparing pastiera, a dish normally served once a year, on the Saturday before Easter. At a traditional family gathering. It was at another traditional family gathering on Christmas Eve. Yes. That young Gwen decided to use the bathroom in Aunt Donna’s house and did not realize that the seat was up. And so, wearing her brand new Christmas morning pajamas, fell into the toilet. How’d you get out, Gwen? That was last Christmas. Aunt Donna’s house. Your dad is super chill. Isn’t he the, like, he is the most chill man ever? Yes. He’s a cool customer. This dish, once a year. He is a mellow fellow. That’s what we love about him. What is he going to do or say if you get this wrong? I love the threat of, like, a parent being super mad at you. I don’t think my dad has ever been mad at me, in my entire life. We can tell. Yeah. I want him to read me bedtime stories. Do you think he could do that? Swim in toilet bowls. Yeah. That’s a good idea. Oh, my God. Dad Asmr. I love it. It will take me four hours to tell you this bedtime story. I know, oh my God. it would still be going when you woke up in the morning. Now, there is a visual difference here. I feel like you might know just from looking at it. Jeez. More pepper. When was the last time you had this? It’s been a while, actually. He used to make it way more often. My grandma used to make it. So this is like a family recipe. I think that this one looks more like the one my dad makes. That’s my early guess. Don’t give it away. So. Oh, it’s a little eggy. It’s almost like a quiche with pasta. I haven’t had this before. It’s like a savory cake made with bucatini pasta, which is the spaghetti with the hole in the middle. There’s a hole in there? Spaghetti with a hole in the middle. Yeah. Bucatini. Now, I’m going over here. I’m getting a corner piece from both of these. This one looks oily. Oh, okay. Is there cheese in this, too? There’s cheese. There’s shortening in it. And you can use vegetable shortening or animal shortening, which is lard. There’s a lot of black pepper in this one, which makes me like it. And the black pepper goes deep. Makes me want to go. I don’t want to insult my dad. I feel like this one looks more like his. But this one’s better seasoned. It has more salt in it. I agree with you on that. Now, you’re the only kid who could get this wrong. The other kids were two for two. Well, three for two, really. I know now I’m so, I keep cutting it and pieces keep flying everywhere. I’m really. Is this the real reason that he’s not here? You know, I’ve been holding back a little bit, but after seeing your dad speak, I feel like if I were just to tell John that he needs to put a little bit more seasoning in his, I think he would be like, you know what, Rhett? I know. You’re right. I feel like he’s a guy who can really take constructive criticism, and we love that about him. All right. We could be wrong. I don’t know. We could be wrong. Which one’s your dad? So also, I want to mention, because he would. This is very important to him. This is meant to be served with cold cuts that you roll up, and it would add more salt to the whole thing. Okay. Sorry, John. Don’t come after me. I am actually going to guess that. Three, two, one. I’m going to guess this one. I believe in your dad also. You’re going against instinct. Okay. All right. Wait, what made you switch it up? I don’t. There’s something about the oiliness of this one that it feels like more in line with something my dad would produce in the kitchen. Okay. Well, your dad’s dish is on Rhett’s side. Okay. Okay. That was my original guess. That was your original guess. That was my original guess. Yeah. We were both giving your dad more credit. So, needs more salt. That’s okay. Or it needs more cold cuts. And it needs cold cuts. Yeah. I didn’t know about the cold cuts thing before I started just ripping him a new one. She’s embarrassed, John. She’s worried about coming home for this Christmas. They’re both good. Just throw her in the toilet. Just dump me in the toilet. Yeah. Hey. Yeah, the lid’s down. The lid’s down. Well, you can take this with you. And you go. And you can learn to love it once more. Thank you. Yeah. Good luck repairing that relationship. We’ll do our best. I’ve never had to do that because I don’t screw up relationships.
