Who can build the most expensive time capsule? Let’s talk about that Good Mythical Morning. As the years go on, the cost of products gets higher. And things we once thought would be valuable in the future are not worth much today. Yeah, like my collection of baby teeth. For some reason, nobody wants them. Your teeth or other people’s… Huh? All right, all right. So we’ve decided that we want to take a trip to the past and see if we can tell which products were more valuable back in the good old days. It’s time for Time Capsule Cash Grab. Okay, boys, for this first round, we’ll be heading back to the 80s, and you’ll have to choose which items you think sold for the most money when they were first released. That dollar amount will be added to Time Capsule total, and the person with the highest total at the end of the game wins and gets to keep an item from the loser’s time capsule. But before we begin, please go ahead and pull a watch from the display case. The longest watch band… will choose first. Look at these watches. So apparently, each of these watch bands… are of a different length. Go for it. Go for it. This one’s calling my name. Beat that, watch puller… I mean, this could be a belt. Watch belt. How could there be one longer than that? What time is it? I don’t know. How could there be one longer than that? Yep, you gotta try. I look like a. I look like a doctor from the 80s. Oh, crap. Oh, what did you do? Let me see. Yours is longer, dude. Whoa. It can be longer than that. Okay, Rhett, you’re gonna choose first this round. And your options are. Reebok Freestyle sneakers released in 1982. These are dope, man. I do like the tonal quality of these. A Cabbage Patch Kid doll released in 1983. This is a big craze… This is rather dingy. Oh. Ooh, ooh, ooh. A Casio calculator watch. The Casio C801.801, released… in… 1980. That’s cool. That’s cool. What time is it? What time is it? Tell me what time I am. Six after three. Or you could choose… the Polaroid Sun 600 instant camera released in 1983. Now, Rhett, were you listening to all your choices? Yeah. You said… I hope you were. Polaroid, Reeboks. Casio Cabbage Patch. There you go. All right, you get to go first, man. What are you going to throw in your time capsule? If I’m just going off of, like, what these are worth today? Like, if you had to Go buy these things today. Yeah, do that. Clearly, a pair of shoes cost the most… Shoes… have always been pretty dag gum expensive, man. Especially one of the trendy ones. Casio watches were considered not that great at the time. They’ve actually become great, okay, over time. Cabbage Patch Kids, I think, big deal. But it was, like, a collector’s item. It wasn’t like you could get them at, like, Toys R Us. The camera is a wild card. All right. Make your choice. I’m going with the Reeboks. I’m glad you’re going with the Reeboks. I’m. I’m going. Let’s see. I think that this Cabbage Patch Kid back in the day was, like, $34, and then when they really started getting in demand, they might have gone up to, like, $55. That’s what I feel. I just think that you’re paying more for the camera. I think that the watch retailed for the most back then, so I’m taking the watch. Okay. I actually feel pretty good about that because I’m going for the camera now. Oh, crap. Okay, well, that. That leaves me with. I hope I’m wrong about this Cabbage Patch doll that they were going for closer to, like, 60, but I don’t think I can get more than that out of it. Get in there. Is there anything you’d like to do in the 80s before we time travel to the future? There’s a lot of things that I would have liked to have done in the 80s that I didn’t. I would like to. I would like to hug my dad. What? Your dad? I’m just kidding. Your dad? Just kidding. I’m just kidding. Your dad’s still living. I just want to be clear about it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But you never, like, would have hugged him more. You didn’t hug him in the 80s. I hugged him plenty in the 80s. It was just. It was just a joke. He was better at hugging. Either he’s dead or he never hugged you. Either way, it was a weird joke. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But, hey, it was two jokes in one. Two weird jokes in one. It was really a throwback to your Casio watch, which is two things in one. It’s for the people who are really following. You know what? I’ll give it to him. Quick reminder. Head over to Sporked.com to create your ideal Halloween haul and get a chance to win a piece of Sporked merch. Oh, yeah. Check it out. All right, we’re going back to watches. Yep. Going back to watches. You. You can. You can. You can draw first this time. Could I interest you in a watch? Oh, a shorty. That’s just. That’s just a shorty. Okay. This one’s — This one’s shorter than our other two, but I beat you this time. This is like a regular watch, so. I get to go first. Okay. We’re in the 90s here. We have, of course, the Furby, released in 1998. This one. Is this one dead? The Tamagotchi, released in 1997. Must be dead. Are you dead? Are you dead? Oh, no. You woke it up. Big sleep. Yeah. How are you feeling now? Are you refreshed? He’s been asleep for decades, guys. What can you find? The Tamagotchi, released in 1997. Nothing. You’re just. Okay. And you already told us about the Super Soaker. For that one. It’ll just be a little touch of the finger. The super soaker, released in 1990. And the Tickle Me Elmo, released in 1996. Pressed tummy, breast tummy. Now, this thing was huge that one year. Those couple of years. People just love to tickle Elmo. Well, Link, you’re up, man. See, I feel like that there’s more technology in this little Tamagotchi than in the Furby. Than in the Elmo. But I think the Elmo… may be the most expensive. What about pumps? There’s no way this is more expensive than that than the Elmo. You know what? I think the Furby is the most expensive. Yep. We’ve killed many of these on the show. And if you don’t shut up, you’re next. Go to sleep. Go to sleep. I mean. can you be quiet? Yes. I’ll put him to sleep. I agree with you. I think that’s the most expensive. I mean, the Nerf. The Super Soaker. Don’t say Nerf. The super company Super Soaker… It’s just… I mean, it’s just plastic. It’s just plastic. It’s pump powered, and you got to. Bring your own water. Good point. Huh? Good point. She’s dreaming. This is so tiny. It’s just so little… I never had one… But I remember people would be really upset if they dropped their keys and then it broke because they were so expensive. That’s not true. I’m gonna go with the Elmo. Okay, you’re going with Elmo. I’m not confident in this, but it was a real, real big deal at the time. Yeah, it was. Doesn’t work anymore. But the fact that he’s still in the packaging is pretty. Yeah, you bored?.. Go back to sleep. I’m going to take the Super Soaker… because I actually believe that… the marketing of that thing boosted… the perceived value. The margins on that thing were really, really high. I bet you it’s just molds, man. It’s just plastic molds. Yep, yep. So I’ve stuck you with the Tamagotchi. I’ve always wanted one. Don’t know if it works. It does. It has a timer. Now, were you wanting for dad hugs in the 90s, or was that purely an 80s thing? Cause this is your last chance to. Do something in the 90s I’d like to get a hug from. I was looking for different kinds of hugs. Any of those gals on Saved by the Bell. Yeah, I was looking for different kinds of hugs in the 90s, if you know what I’m talking about. I was looking for these kinds of hugs right here. Yeah, dad hugs turns to rad hugs. You know what I’m saying? This is me in the 90s, man. Yep, yep. All day, every day. Why are the hands so spider? Like, just do more rubbing. She was trying to hold on to me, man. I’m a big man. She didn’t want me to get away. A lot of grasping. All right, we’re here in the 2000s. Let’s pull some more watches. All right, final two watches. I’ll take. Hush up. I got the short watch. Look how short your watch is, dude. I mean, it’s a finger watch. It’s a finger watch. Well, it looks like a two finger watch. Hush, be quiet, go to sleep. Okay, your options are a first generation iPod released in 2001. Oh, look at that thing. And it’s got. Look how thick it is. Oh, my gosh. I never could have told you. It’s like a brick, man. That it was that thick. It’s amazing. You could also choose a robo sapien released in 2004. Hello. Good to meet you. Exactly. Just said we’re boring. Or a Motorola razor released in 2004. Flip phone right there. Don’t flip it so hard, man. You never have one of those, did you? There you go. Hello. You know, hey, these are coming back, man. Talk on it. These are coming back so hard. Yeah, but all that matters is the price then, not now. Or, oh, sorry, you’re picking up a call. I don’t know. I don’t know. I don’t know. I don’t know who I’m thinking for. What are you thinking, Bush or Gore? Yeah, Yeah. I don’t know. I don’t know. I don’t know. I don’t know. Who ran in 2004. Bush. Gore, maybe? I’ve already forgotten. Okay. It was earlier than that. You could also choose a Kindle from 2007. Is this like the original Kindle? I believe so. Look at this thing. So you’ve got the next and the previous buttons over here, but on this angled side you also have the next and back button here. And then look with the scroll wheel. I can scroll it with my two fingers that are together because of my watch. And then you’ve got. That little scroll right there. And I guess it would, like, show you the margin in that thing. And then look, next page was just. A. Yeah, next page. On both sides. Oh, on both sides. And then what’s this previous page? I already talked about that. Oh, I wasn’t listening. But I don’t know why we wouldn’t. Why. Why would you need all these letters down here? Are you gonna write a book on a Kindle? I think you could even back then maybe buy books via. Well, that seems advanced. I don’t know. I have no idea. Yeah, you could search it up. You searched it up on there. Seems like a lot. You’re up first. I know where I would go. I know where I would go. I mean, I gotta go with the ipod because, I mean, Apple’s never been one to like, cut you a discount on a brand new music brick. It’s like, oh, my gosh, I’m willing to pay $600 for this thing. Yeah, that’s the obvious first choice, is it not? Because so thick… I mean, they would design something that everybody thought was amazing. And believe it. Believe it or not, we thought this was amazing. How do you get music in there? Jog wheel, man. How do you get music in this thing? Look, it’s still on playlist. It still works. Browse artists. Oh, Amy Grant. A Christmas to Remember. Amy Grant is in there playing. Yeah, that’s not how you listen. There’s no speaker… That’s the. That’s the headphone jack. You. You would. It’s making a lot of noise, though. I’m hearing the… hard drive spin. Yeah, that’s crazy. That’s Amy Grant singing on that hard drive, man. Christmas to Remember. Yep. What are you going to choose? Flip phone. Phones are expensive, man. Motorola, it could flip. I’m going with the flippy phone. All right. Is the Kindle More. I don’t know what this robot does, but it’s certainly heavy. I wonder what it would do. Oh, arms up. I mean, it would. It grab things. It would grab things. You know what? I’m gonna go with the Kindle… Yeah, I know the Kindle was a lot cheaper than the. Than the ipod, but I do. I think new technology readers… Readers have. Have quite a budget, and that sticks. Me with the robot. Okay, before we lock up your individual little time capsules, you have the opportunity now to trade one item from your opponent’s time capsule that they cannot block. No. No tradesy backsies. And right now, let me see what’s in your box. Rhett is losing. Yeah, I figured. So you can pick first. Okay. All right. All right. Cabbage Patch doll, calculator watch, Super Soaker, Kindle, ipod, furby. I’m going to give you. What is it called? Yamagachi? I’m going to give you this. And I would like the ipod. that’s a tough trade for the Linkster. Yeah… Okay. Do I want the shoes? I just don’t think those are the most valuable shoes. Smells good, though… Slight leather, barely worn out. So I can’t give you the Tamagotchi back. size seven. I’m gonna. Crap. Which costs more, the Cabbage Patch doll or the Super Soaker? I think the Super Soaker is cheaper, so I’m going to trade that for the Polaroid camera. Okay, that helps you for sure. See what Amy Grant has to say about that? All right, now, we traded. You do have, if you, like, agree on any other trades, you can make those trades, but you both have to agree on. I’ll trade you Elmo for the Cabbage Patch dollar. Okay, I’ll trade you the Furby for the robot. Well, fine. I mean, he’s not any fun. Stevie. All right, I’m locked in. Okay, okay, hold on. I’ll trade you. The Super Soaker. Super Soaker for the Kindle. No, you doofus. Okay, did I call you a doofus when you made me a bad trade? I just said you weren’t fun. Okay, so the mythical beasts have known this whole time how much each item costs. But I will tell you a little something. In the 80s, the most expensive item was the Casio watch. The least expensive item was the Cabbage Patch Kid. In the 90s, the most expensive item was the Furby. And the least expensive item was the Super Soaker. And finally, in the 2000s, the most expensive item was the razor. And the least expensive was the robe. Hobosapien. Oh, so that means. Link, your time capsule is worth $575.93. And Rhett, yours is worth $1,093 more dollars and 11 cents, which means you’re the winner. And you can choose anything from Link’s situation to take for yourself. Dang, that razor was expensive, y’all. What about the hanging chads? Did you hear about the hanging chads? They’re hanging so many chads in Florida. It was the part of the ballots. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That you push through. You have to. You have to. And if it didn’t push all the way through. Yeah. It was really a thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I’ll take. Please. Please take the Furby. I’ll take… I’ll take the Polaroid. Okay. For some reason, I thought I was winning. The way you build it up, Stevie. Yeah, that was cool, huh? Well, hush, hush, hush.
