Do fancy new products always beat out the old ones? Let’s talk about that. “Good Mythical Morning.” Now, if there’s one thing about people is that we love buying stuff. Yep. And if there’s one thing about late stage capitalism is that there’s always some kind of new product for us people to buy. And sometimes those fancy new products are worth the money and sometimes they aren’t. And sometimes our job is to find out. Sometimes. It’s sometimes for “New Tool or Old School.” Okay, boys, up first we’ve got the Dreamfarm Flegg three-in-one flexible egg ring, flipper, and server. This product features a unique C channel ring design that uses the egg’s weight to seal it against the pan and keep the egg in place while you flip, cook and serve. And once the egg is cooked, you squeeze the top ring to release the egg onto your plate. And you’ll be comparing that to a classic spatula. A classic spatula. But my friend Link here, have you ever made an egg? Um, sure, no. I don’t know if I have. This is a big moment for you. This is a good test. You’re gonna fry an egg. It’s the first time you’ve ever used that, it’s the first time I’ve ever used this. See both new tools. Welcome to the Dream Farm, first of all. I love that name. Actually, it sounds like a horror movie. $18 for this puppy. Are you? That’s kinda light, isn’t it? Is that enough? That’s enough. It’s enough. Don’t spray the mic. Oh, it needs a little PAM. Nonstick pan, so that’ll be fine. I’m gonna try to make the same type of egg as you. You’re gonna flip it? I’m just gonna sunny side it up here. I’m gonna crack it right into the. I’m just gonna sunny side it up, I’m gonna crack it right here into the pan. I wanted the yolk. It’s already kind of white. I wanted the yolk to be right there in the middle, but it didn’t quite work out. Maybe I. I want to push this to the middle like that. Okay, well too late for that. Because, ooh, what is the clear? There’s a white thing, but then there’s also a clear thing. What, you’ve also never seen an egg? Listen, I like scrambled eggs. I don’t wanna see different parts of it. But seriously, why is it white on the bottom? And then why is all that clear? Is that normal? Or is this? It’s part of the process. Is this organic? It’s part of the process. That part hasn’t touched the hot pan. That’ll turn white? It’s still, yeah. Yeah, that’ll all change color, my friend. Now it’ll be still be two different colors. It won’t be scrambled. I think I should flip it. No, don’t flip it yet. Don’t flip it yet. I’ll let you know when that’s ready to flip. In the meantime. It’s gross looking. This is $18, but it’s 2.9 out of five stars on Amazon. A lot of people say that it doesn’t work. People are like, “I tried to do it.” One person said the egg runs under the silicone immediately. That did not happen to me. So far it seems to be working okay. But I’m gonna let this whole thing cook before I start messing around with it. Let him him cook. You can do a thing where it completely flips. Do that. Which I will try. And I will also try. I think I should do it. I think it’s time to flip. The proper way to flip that is, you know. With the pan. With the pan. But don’t do that. Don’t do that, that’s advanced techniques. Don’t worry about that. I kind of feel, I feel like, is that hot? I feel like I could do it. I feel like I could do it. I think you can flip it with the spatula right now. I think it’s a good time to do it. But yours isn’t ready, ’cause yours is thicker? Mine’s thicker. Now don’t break the yolk. Oh my. Oh my goodness. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, and then. Just a gentle flip. Oh! Hey, I did that. I would never eat it. Link’s cooking an egg. He won’t eat it. I’m gonna, it’s gotta be scrambled for me. Are you sure you don’t wanna flip? I can look at it and tell myself I don’t wanna flip it. So I’m ahead. Old tool school over here is taking the early lead, learning new skills that I’ll never use. I do like the fact that it’s a perfect little circle. Like a egg McMuffin at McDonald’s. Yeah. I’ve been doing a really special thing at home with my eggs and I don’t wanna really tell you all about it. Yes, thank you. I didn’t. Okay, fine. I didn’t see the, yeah, I was just standing there. And then the next thing you know. You were making an egg. There was a tornado. No, tell me about the egg, sir. You said that you had a special egg. I’m making omelets in the microwave and they’re the best thing I’ve ever had. Are you embarrassed about this? Nope, I learned it from a chef. Okay, tell me more. The best egg. I’m not understanding. Hey, thank me later. Google Jose Andre’s microwave omelet. They can’t hear you. There you go. And it will be the best thing you’ve ever tasted. And you will never cook an omelet in the pan again. This has taken forever, dude. You’re telling these pointless stories about microwaving eggs. No, this, you could actually do this. I’m confident that you could do this. So you scramble it, you put stuff in it. You put mayonnaise and egg and a little oil and butter, and I’m actually doing diced jalapenos, and cheese, and pepper. A full scramble. All in there, mixing it up, whisking it up, putting it in the microwave for like a minute and a half, and then you pour it out and it’s the softest, fluffiest omelet you’ve ever had in your life. And you don’t think it has anything to do with the fact that you said that you put mayo, butter, and oil in it? Yeah, that also helps. Look at me. I’m already going onto my second egg. Well do something cool this time. No look. Did you see that? Pretty cool. Is that cool? That’s cool. I cracked the egg now I’m going to get rid of that nasty yellow thing. Oh, see, so I lifted it a little bit to try to do the flip and it immediately started falling out the bottom. So I don’t believe that works. Also, I don’t know how much I like the idea of silicone cooking next to my egg. I don’t know if it’s bad for you or what, but there’s nothing I can do at this point. I’m gonna lift it up, just like they said to do at the Dream Farm. And it’s gonna fall right out. See, that’s what happens. I’m sorry. I came to the Dream farm and I tried, and then I flipped it over like that. And that was a fail too. No, you want it to break. You want it to break when it flips like that. That’s when you want it to break. This is gonna be an over hard. So here I am making two eggs to your one. And somebody would like that. Maybe it needs salt and pepper. But listen, dude, I’ve beat you at your own game. Welcome to the Dream Farm. All we need is you to go to sleep. New tool is sucky. We’re going with. Old school. Up next we have a Mighty Mug Coffee Tumbler, which claims to be leak proof and untippable thanks to its patented Smart Grip Technology. So you’re gonna be testing it against the regular, no frills, insulated coffee tumbler to see how untippable it actually is. But your desk looks pretty safe and clean. Yeah, let’s get it the way it usually is around here when we’re working. Oh yeah, we’re in work mode here. You know how I am. Before I really start testing it, let me explore this. Explore it. It’s got a beautiful. Bulbous. Smooth silhouette. You gotta have a big hand to get around it. Huh, well, it’s definitely leak proof. I guess you gotta, okay, you push the button to drink out of it. You can drink out of anywhere. You don’t have to line your mouth up with anything. Ingenious. Which that’s nice. It says the only mug that grips when hit but lifts for sips. Put that to the test. So I put this down and then. Huh. And then if I just pick it up. Hold on, hold on. Lemme see your stapler. Oh, I’m sorry. My stapler is out. See? Oh, but I need a little bit of your. Now do that with mine. Reach for my stapler. See what happens with mine. Get your stapler. Yeah, I mean, that just doesn’t work at all. Let me answer your phone. Oh God. Hello? That doesn’t work at all. Hello? I mean, look at this. I’m answering my phone. Hello? Hello? I’m stapling. Sorry, hello, I knocked over the untippable mug. You went kind of hard. And then look. Yeah, I overdid it. You pull it straight up. It was unrealistic. Yeah, I’m telling you. Oh, oh yeah. I’m telling you. Can you hear me now? When I hit it, nothing happens. But when I just grab it vertically, it just comes up effortlessly. It’s absolutely crazy. This phone is very slippery. I mean. Look at that. Yeah, yeah. Oh, well, there is a limit to the madness. What am I doing? I’m highlighting. I mean. Look at that. Oh. Look at that. I’m supposed to do. Look at that. You’re supposed to do the text first. You’re not seeing anything? I’m supposed to do the text first before highlighting? You’re not watching this. Okay, I’ll take care of that. I’m offended. You should be watching, not listening. I’m gonna, yeah, I’m gonna shred it. I’m gonna shred it. I’m shredding it. I’m shredding it right now. This is crazy. I’m shredding it. $40? Yes please! Now I’m opening it, because I don’t even care. Oh! Oh wait! Hold on, let me tape it back together. This is crazy, dude. It’s like a magic trick. I mean, how’s this thing work? Okay. How does this thing work? Okay, well this is really, yeah. It has, it’s like a suction. I’m sorry. I don’t even really understand what’s happening. Dishwasher safe lid, hand washed mug. I’m losing you. Do not microwave. Oh God. Not for making omelets. Ugh. Very impressive. Well, that’s incredible. And you know what? Even when it’s wet, it works. It works! Oh my God! And then you. It’s crazy. I know, I know. It’s perfect for a guy like me who’s doing things like that. We are saying. New tool! You wanna get in the holiday spirit? Well, we have a Mythical 24/7 channel constantly running this show and other Mythical programming. And we’ve got holiday marathons of “Good Mythical Morning” that are happening Tuesdays on Mythical 24/7 starting at 7:00 PM Eastern, 4:00 PM Pacific. You can stream it on Amazon, Roku, Samsung TV Plus. Samsung TV Plus is one thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But there’s also other things. Sounded like you were gonna say plus more stuff. So if you got those smart TVs, you got Mythical 24/7 for free. Get it! Those smart TVs. Last up, we have this drawing robot for kids, which claims to teach kids how to draw under the guidance of a robot. The drawing robot works off a set of 150 included image cards that you insert into the slot. So Rhett, you’re going to pick a card, and then you and Link will compete to see who can make the best drawing. But Link is using good old fashioned markers. Okay, I’m not gonna show you this because I don’t want, ’cause I want this to come from your own mind. I’m gonna draw a donut. Okay, I am gonna draw a donut. You’re gonna draw a donut? So let me get this thing going. I love the idea of just leaving a robot with my children so it can learn things. Okay, so we can can turn it on. Hello, my name is Molly Yan. It’s nice to meet you. Molly Yan. I’m good at drawing. Oh great. Let’s learn to draw together. Okay. Okay, well, hello, my name is Rhett. I would love for us to draw a donut. Donut. It’s a different voice. Okay, hold on, are you possessed? Are you possessed? My dear friend, you can choose to draw or repeat it. Let’s choose to draw. Just one second. Let’s start drawing. Okay, I’m drawing a donut. Don’t look at it! There you go. Don’t look at it! It’s kind of mesmerizing. Don’t look at it! If I was the kid, I would just be watching this and like doing the same thing at the same time? No, you would be going and doing something else and then turning this in for your homework. Okay. It says that it saves parents time by letting the robot patiently guide kids through repeated drawing steps. So it implies that parents can’t be patient. Let the robot be patient. Yeah. Helping them learn faster with more confidence. Donut. Draw a donut. I bet you mine’s gonna be better. Done. That could be anything. That could be anything. Okay, so now I’m gonna do. Could be anything. Mine, on the other hand, is going to be a wonderful donut. Oh my goodness, look at that. Sprinkles all over my donut. Look at that. Okay, sprinkle time. Yeah, sprinkle here, sprinkle. Getting a little bit impatient. It’s taking you quite a while. I’m gonna put some, oh, I can’t help but look that it, oh, okay. That gave me an idea. You remember Shabash? Shabaz? Shabaz, yeah. Shabaz came to school in third or fourth grade and he was an absolute drawing machine. Every day he would bring. Well he was a drawing human. This is a drawing machine. He would bring incredible drawings to class every day. And we’d be like, “Man, this guy can draw Mickey Mouse, Goofy, lots of Disney characters.” I remember that. Perfectly. Shabaz could draw some Disney characters. He’s so talented. And then what did we find out? He was a tracer! He traced them! He was tracing. You’re right. He was tracing all year. Well. Shabaz, are you done? I didn’t trace this donut. Hey, teach. Look what I did for my homework. Perfect donut. Look what my friend did. He’s a loser. I did different angles. I did a bird’s eye view, I did a stack. I mean that looks like. That’s a perfect donut. Like it was just printed. It’s a perfect donut. What’s the difference between this and like just saying, “Hey printer, print a donut.” Don’t make it confusing for me. I guess it’s because you get to see the drawing strokes or something. Yeah, you get to see, and you can learn how long it could take you to draw a donut. You know, if you wanna take three minutes to draw a donut, you can too. Just like this special little possessed robot. Listen, as a parent, I don’t have the patience for this. Do you think a kid’s gonna have the patience to watch this thing happen? What’s the, is it oddly satisfying? Is that the genre of, you know what I’m talking about? Where you can indulge? It kinda has a little bit of that Oh, I love it. Watching that thing make the donut, that did something for me. Well I could. Put you to sleep, maybe. You could do a plane. It’s doing another one. A snail, a crab. Everything you want to do, it’ll do it. Drum stick. You can do a whole family of things. I mean, it is a bit mesmerizing to watch. What happens when you? Earthquake! Earthquake! Oh, you having a little trouble, aren’t you? You having a little trouble there? You suck! Little jar, huh? Uh oh. You kind of suck at drawing. What are you drawing? A constellation? You guys are such bullies. Oh man. You’re drawing. Your first donut was great. Huh! No, hey, don’t, hey, don’t, you can’t do that. Oh, come on. You can’t do that. People get upset about that. You gotta know the line, man. You always cross the line. You gotta know the line. Oh look, it went off the page. You can’t push the robots around. Robot rights, man. Okay, all right. What we were doing before was just fun, fun. What if I do this? It was just lighthearted fun. Look at that. I can get it to draw anything I want. I bet you I can get it to draw a wiener! Again, we didn’t need to hear that. Here. We didn’t need to hear that. All right, this is kind of cool, and yeah, parents don’t have patience. I’ll vote for it if you want me to. I think. To make up for what I did. I don’t think it’s a great idea for kids. I think it’s a great idea for us. I think I just wanna. To learn how to draw? I wanna just set this in the corner of my house and have it draw for me. And I’m gonna treat it right. I’m gonna treat you right. I’m never gonna let you, I’m never gonna let that bad man do bad things to you, okay. So for reasons that I didn’t expect, we are saying. New tools. Rhett has a new friend. I do. Thanks for commenting and sharing this video. You know what time it is. We’re here on the summit of Mt. Takao in Tokyo, Japan. And that is Mount Fuji. I’m Christian. I’m Charlotte. I’m Tessa. I’m Liz, and we’re the Garms family. And it’s time to spin the Wheel of Mythicality. The whole family in Japan, Link. Mt. Fuji! Long ways away there. Hey, you know what we should do? We should donate $1,000 to the Association of American Indian Affairs to aid in their mission to protect native sovereignty and culture through legal advocacy, education, and youth programs and scholarships.
