Can we guess when the most iconic carnival foods were invented? Let’s talk about that. Good Mythical Summer. Can you believe that? Good mythical summer is almost over. I mean, that really flew by. Yeah. I’m really gonna miss it. Rhett, but we still have today. Mm-hmm. And we have some marathons and throwbacks on the way. Next week. We gotta keep the good vibes going for as long as possible. And when I think of good vibes, I think of two things, segues and carnivals. Speaking of carnivals, how about we guess when Delicious Carnival Foods were invented via shuffleboard? It’s time for a Shuffle in Time, carnival Food Edition. Okay, boys, before we reveal your first carnival food, we have a little charity competition business to handle ready. This is the very last day of the competition and your last opportunity to add money to your donation totals. So let’s take a look at where those totals stand right now. Link. You have so far earned $22,000 for Habitat for Humanity, right? Not bad. Already beating your total from last year. That’s right. Nice. And Rhett, you have earned $37,000 for Action Against Hunger. That’s more. Mm-hmm. That’s more, but it’s not over. It’s not over. And I’ve, I’ve beat myself already. Uh, yeah, you have a chance Link. To actually beat RT today. Hmm. Because every round is worth 4,000, $4,000. All right. It’s a big game, boys. All right. Okay, let’s, uh, I do it. Find out what your first carnival food is and please welcome a special guest to help us with that. Oh, special guest. Aha. Aha. Happy cutting Candy day, daddy. Hello, Randy. Hey Randy. Here you go. It, what do you think it is? I’m guessing cotton candy. Yeah. It’s a little on the nose, but we’re having fun. Yeah, we are. You wanna hear sweet? Nothing. Yeah. I was hoping you would ask that. We’ve known each other a long time, and I think it’s time we take the next step in our relationship. I think we should touch butts. Hey, link. I got a space reserved for your glasses in my trophy case. All right, bye. Thanks, Randy. Touch butts. He’s talking about cigarettes, right? I don’t know. I wasn’t listening. Look at this. I mean, I, I’ve never liked cotton candy. Yo, you never liked something. Um, you know, it just disappears. It’s, it is just a whole lot of nothing. Hmm. It’s been around a long time. Cotton candy. You’re going first. I’m going first. I get the advantage ’cause I’m in the league. Okay. We got some old dates on this board today. What kind of technology is required for a cotton candy? There’s a spinny thing that’s hot. When do they start spinning? Uh, they’ve been spinning for quite some time. When do they start heating things? They’ve been doing that for quite some time. The real question is when did they put them together? When did they start spinning hot things and making. Sugar though. Sugar was something, I think sugar was something that was discovered. Sugarcane, I don’t, I think they were eating non sugary foods over there. Sure. In Western Europe until they found them in Americas, I don’t know. That sounds like, like it might be, right? You think sugar is an American invention? I think that it’s something that was discovered in the Americas. Whoa. I don’t know. Doesn’t it sound right when I say that? Well, all of the dates, but all these dates, these 30 is the earliest. It’s not like, but you gotta find sugar. Then you gotta realize that you can spin it and heat it and then you gotta make something that feels cotton. This just feels like I mm times weren’t tough when you’re making cotton candy. You know what I’m saying? This is a celebratory thing. I know. I don’t know. So it’s not right after the discovery. This is, you’re stretching cotton candy. I mean, they’re stretching sugar, so maybe Tommy’s works off. This could be something that happened in a world’s Fair. You know, they always, things happen in a World’s Fair. Lots of things happened around 1900 or that first World’s Fair, or whenever it was. Maybe 1890. I’m gonna split 1,918 90 right in the middle if I can. Whoa. Okay. Alright. Not too bad. Pretty good placement. There’s no excuse for me to not win this round, ’cause I should be able to push you to a, to something, to one corner. I, I feel like if I push him to 1730 Uhhuh, then that gives me, and then I pin him there, the rest of the board. It gives me the rest of the board. And there’s no way at 1730 right. They weren’t, they weren’t doing things. This, this, uh, it could be anything, but that’s lighthearted. That’s the easiest strategy I can come up with. Of course, now I got to, I’ve gotta successfully bump you and make this happen. I’m gonna try my darn just, well, that’s interesting. Stevie, huh? I, I think you’re in pretty good shape. What is gonna happen? You can find sweet, sugary cotton candy at just about any carnival fair or festival, though it was oddly enough invented by a dentist, William Morrison, with the help of a confectioner, John c Wharton, the duo worked together to create a machine that spun sugar into the creation. We now know as cotton candy in. 1897. Oh, yeah. Whoa. Are you, you messing with me a little bit? Bit? Okay. All right. All right. Habitat for you, man. All right. You did four more grand to reveal your next carnival food. Please welcome another special guest. Corny grandma. Corny grandma. Typically not showing up over here. Yeah. Yeah, over here. Follow the sound until, until the, the winner. Hello. You young man. Man. Hey, good to see you again. Corny grandma. Hey, I’m corny grandma. Yeah, they, they, because I like corn. Uh, okay. I like to eat it with everything. Yeah. Okay. What do you got under your clothes? Corn. You wanna put this down? Oh, yeah. Mm-hmm. Okay. Wanna take that off? Yeah. To have, have a look at. Oh yeah. Yeah. Oh, popcorn, corn. That makes sense. Popcorn. That makes sense. Um, uh, cat Kettle corn. Oh yeah. Sweet Kettle corn. Kettle corn. Kettle corn. We’re staying sweet today, okay? Mm-hmm. Are you gonna come back at the end? I’m, I’m not him. He’s over there. I haven’t won anything yet. I don’t deserve this. I’ve, I haven’t won anything. I, I also, you usually don’t reward us for this game. Okay. Also, before you start discussing strategy, I’ve been told the history of Kettlecorn is highly controversial, okay? And it’s nearly impossible to lock down the first, first, first originators. So we’re looking for the decade in which Kettlecorn was first brought to the us. Okay, so is that helpful for you? Yeah, because I know like before you were, okay, good. Well, let me just say a couple things brought to the us. Oh man, I’m not getting him, sorry, sorry, sorry. Get outta here. Can I just say something? When we typically play this game, because the link won the first round, now he would go first to give me the advantage. But we’re taking into account the fact that you’re still in the hole when it comes to the money. So we’re gonna let you go second in every single round, which gives you the definitive chance of winning every single round link. Mm-hmm. Because that’s what the people want. Look in the comments. Yeah. I, you know, I like the sound of that. You know why? Because that’s action against action, against hunger. Right. And as I stated at the very beginning of this, so it’s for hunger. I’m for, no, I’m not for hunger. Well, that’s what you just said. If you’re against Action Against Hunger, you’re for hunger. I’m for Habitat for Humanity. Okay. So am I. You wanna switch charities? No. Okay. ’cause I will. So when did this come to the United States? Well, this is weird. I’d say 1730. This is weird because you gotta get corn from the Americas to start with. What? Because that’s where the corn was happening. And then you gotta send that away. Hold on. But maybe it was, is this a east west thing or is this a south North Exchange? Well you said the Americas not The Americas is the North and the South Americas. There was corn down there too. So is it corn coming up or is it corn coming over? I don’t know. Did she say the United States is what I’m asking? She, she certainly did. Okay. Not the Americas. So I think, I can’t mayor think so much so much about the history of corn here. I need to think about when was the United States ready for kettle corn? Well, I think he can eliminate too, just because there was no United States Are we being that technical? So it can’t be 1770. ’cause there wasn’t even a thing, huh? Right. I mean there were states though. They just weren’t united. Wow. Well those are called colonies. They weren’t states. Right. Don’t quote me, but it’s not a long limb to go out on. I think it’s 1870. But what happens is, is if I go right there, you just push me further, you bump, you bump me, right? I’m just gonna try to land in the middle of the board and see what you do. Woo. I like the fact that you’re close to 1890, which is the only one that. It has already been taken, so I actually think, see good cotton candy was 1890. Do we think sugar was added to corn before cotton candy? I think so, yes. Why? Why? It would be so much easier than making cotton candy. So that’s why I think it’s. 1870. Yeah. Uhhuh. So I don’t want push rut closer to that. I want to kind of go past him. Oh, you want to avoid me? I want to. I want to just get past him and if I’m into 1890, yeah. I’m trying to figure, I wanted to land all the way at that cross section. I didn’t get farther. I wanna pass him, but I want to pass him on this side, on the 1900 side. So what I’m gonna do is this getting creative. What just happened? What just happened? Okay, well what just happened? I knew it was so heavy. God, I, this type of, I always pull this type of crowd. Hold on. It might be 1770. We don’t know. Even though those weren’t the United States, it doesn’t even, this is, I’m, I’m blown it. My humanity has been blown for the habitat. Sorry, I had a leak. Some say cattle. Corn was created by the Dutch in the 17th century. Some say it was invented in Germany in the 18th century, and some say it first appeared in Mexico over 5,000 years ago. But according to records, kettle corn was first brought to the US by Pennsylvania Dutch immigrants sometime around 1776, which is America. We didn’t think about the fact that 70 76 is in the 70 seventies. Yes. I did. That’s why, uh, hey, he’s gonna, he’s won two in a row. We wanna give one last reminder about the charities that we’ve been playing for all summer. All the money that I win is going to Action Against Hunger. And last year, action Against Hunger reached 21 million people across the world. If you want to help them in their global movement to end hunger, you can join me in Giving by scanning the QR code on the screen. And of course, I’m winning Money left and right Hand Over Fist for Habitat for Humanity. They are working together to build more prosperous and vibrant communities by making sure everyone has a safe, affordable place to call home. You can join me and given by scanning the QR code on the screen now. Okay. Let’s welcome our next special guest. Hey fellas. Oh yes. Is that the Matt Carney please? Hot dog on a stick a little bit. I’ll never guess what I’ve got under here. Have you kept this uniform all these years? Oh yeah. This is the one. This is the one I wore back how many years ago. Why is the neck so big? The neck has always been that big. This, this was the look when I was in college in 2020. Yeah, yeah, right. It’s 2020. 2020. Yeah. That’s the look. These are corn dog, big neck, hot dog. I wouldn’t call this a hot dog on a stick. But is it, uh, you know, it’s kind of like, what’s a cinnamon roll? Or what’s a cinnamon bun? Okay. Like, it’s like that kind of thing. Thank you. Oh, look at it. That’s what that was. And just Prime. That was him. Yep, yep, yep, yep. Hadn’t changed a bit. Okay. I’m gonna eat this. That’s not from hot dog on a stick. ’cause there’s so much better. Is that what you name? They’re really good. Me and you were walking next to that place the other day. Remember that? And you didn’t even let me stop. Rick could barely contain himself. He’s like, man, hot dog. He won’t even, lemme stop. Stick right there. I was like, dad, come on. Let’s stop. I really like a hot dog on a stick. And then he gets closer. He is like looking at the menu and he is like, they also have chicken fingers. He’s like, no, son. I was like, yeah, but they’re not on a stick. I don’t know why you started being my dad in that moment. Okay. Um, I didn’t let him get one corn dogs, but I bought him a coconut water. I appreciate that man. When do they start putting stuff on sticks? Deep frying, hot dogs. A lot of things gotta come together for this. You gotta have a lot of stuff lined up to put a, to batter up a wiener and put it in some hot oil. Yeah, you do. Better up. I think this is a pretty recent invention. I think it’s on the left side of the board. I think it’s either 1900, 19 20, or 1930. They’re all lined up right there. What if I just went right in the middle and hoped for the best? Trying to land on 1900 and you’ve gotta make a decision. Go for it. Okay, stop a little short there. All right, well it’s still, you still gotta make a decision. I don’t love it when you stop. A little short ’cause. Then I can’t, it’s easier to bump you. Mm-hmm. And now to go around you. Maybe I did it on purpose. I mean, the last time I tried to go around you, it was really ugly, but it worked out. You’ve won every round. I’m about to win this one. I just have to figure out how to do it. I definitely don’t fully disagree with you. Okay, but you partially disagree. Well, I don’t fully agree, but I do think that. The technological advances required for such a endeavor put me in the 20th century. Alright, I’m, I’m gonna bounce him to the right, to my right towards the 1730 corner and I’m gonna stay where he basically is. And I’m gonna go with a little more gusto this time because I was so embarrassed last round. Oh, that’s nice. That’s, that’s gonna work. I think that’s gonna work. Stanley Jenkins of Buffalo New York filed a patent for a game changing culinary apparatus. His patent application states quote, I have discovered that articles of food such as wieners when impaled on sticks and dipped in a batter and then deep fried in a vegetable oil at a temperature of. 390 degrees Fahrenheit. See all the technology, the resultant food product on a stick is a clean, wholesome, and tasty refreshment clean. And while there’s no record of Jenkins selling any corn dogs, he was the first to dream them up way back in 1927. Yes. I did it. I can’t even believe it. Look at that. Habitat for Humanity. This is a great day for you. You didn’t even believe in me. Whether you’re commuting to the office or chopping wood with a peanut butter ax, our new mythical work jacket has got you covered, especially the parts of your body that it covers. I’m ready to work. It’s, it’s inspired by American work wear here, you know. It looks like you could go into a factory as well. Oh, I’m planning on it later. I, I’m a big fan of these type of jackets. I have a lot of ’em, so it’s only appropriate that we now sell one. It has a got pocket here, pocket here. Oh yeah. Pocket here. And a zipper pocket there. And the look at that mythical embroider. Look at these little, this little check detail. Go to mythical.com and grab one of these for yourself. Uh, it’s comfortable, it’s protective. It makes you feel like you’re accomplishing things. Okay. Uh, let’s go ahead and bring out our last special guest. Yes. Ooh. Oh, oh oh. It’s a witch. The witch. Karen The witch. Yep. Come one. Come All. Bring forth sweet treats. We eat at the carnival. Oh, canid Apple. Yeah. Karen? Yes. Karen the witch. Have you done anything to these or there? Is there a razor plate? No, nothing. You mean like the time I did something to them seven years ago? Yeah. You guys remember this character? She’s my favorite. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. All right. See you later. Bye Karen. Bye. I. Uh, you don’t want me to do what this is gonna do to me when I bite it, Don, which I’m not going to. I don’t. Something else I don’t want is, I don’t want an advantage for this last round. Oh, it all comes down to this. That’s admirable to see who has raised more money for their charity this whole summer. Hmm. I also don’t want to disadvantage. Okay. How are we gonna do that? So bring in the second stick. Oh. Let’s go at the same time. Oh, simulcast si. Yeah. Stick simulcast. We cast simul. So, yeah, it’s just, it, it happens. Whatever happens, happens. But I, we need to think about this ’cause I want, I need to think about where we’re gonna go. ’cause I, I gotta think about it. I can’t talk about it. ’cause I don’t want you to know where I’m going and I don’t want you to know where I’m going. I’m, I just said the same thing twice. Yeah. I, I’m gonna think about it too. You should think into your, uh, single camera. Oh, I’m gonna, yeah, I’m gonna think in my own head so you can’t hear. Well, I know that sticks have been fundamental tools and symbols throughout human history, and apples originated in Central Asia and then eventually spread throughout Europe and the Americas through the Silk Road. And caramel originally came from the Arab world, but then it evolved as sugar, milk, and butter were combined to create the chewy caramel we know today. You put that all together. What do you get? Oh crap. I was supposed to be thanking. Did you think? Yeah. Okay. 3, 2, 1, go. 3, 2, 1, go. No sabotaging of the sticks in this area. What do you mean by that? I’m saying that like a lesser man would like wait a little bit and then immediately bump the other guy right here. And like, you know, I’m not a lesser man, so I’m not gonna do that. Well, I’m just not overthinking it. Okay. 3, 2, 1. Go. Oh, we both, we. Oh, you’ve got more options than me, but I think it’s 1730. That’s what I was aiming for, but it seems like you have more options. Yeah. I wanted to go a little bit further back, but Oh yeah. You were 1800. Uh, yeah. I just was like, okay. While candy coated apples had been around for some time already. Hunter’s Candy Store in Moscow, Idaho was the absolute first to ever put an apple on a stick and coat it in caramel. They even sent the sweet treats overseas for soldiers fighting in World War ii, and they first started making these iconic treats in 1936. Okay, re you have, you’ve eed out the wind. In terms of the number of dollars given to charity, but that was exciting, right? You pulled off $41,000 for Action Against Hunger and Link $34,000 for Habitat for Humanity. Let’s go ahead and bring out those giant checks. Whoa, whoa. Oh, wow. Huh? Yeah. Look at that. No, I, I, I’ll just take the check. Thank you to Habitat for Humanity. I just take the check and action against hunger for all the stellar work that you do, making a positive difference around the world. Ah, I’ve, I’ve just never held a check this big before. It’s cool. You want it ready to go to the bank? Uh, no. We’re giving this. All right. Don’t forget to come back for a good mythical weekend tomorrow. Right here on this channel. Well, I wasn’t gonna keep it. I was gonna hang. It’s not for us. It’s send it to the other. Okay. Yes. And you know what? We’re gonna be back on Monday with a brand new marathon, so join us then.
