Come on in, guys. – Come closer. – [Alex] Yeah. – We’re going to have to back way up here. – 15 hundred episodes and I’ll make a little plug: Mythical.store for our Dogs of the Apawcalypse shirts. – [Alex] I don’t know if I got my spit in there. – [Stevie] Thank you. – Wear the story– – [Stevie] So shiny. – Of dogs taking over. Look at that. Thanks, Kevin. – [Alex] Change. – [Stevie] Shiny, shiny. – Okay, so … – [Chase] Kevin, you made this? – Everyone here has been here for. – Different amounts of time. – Different amounts of time. But, just like a number of seasons. – Yeah. So, on LTAT this weekend, which no one knows about, I have a whole going through when different crew members started and then we also dug through a bunch of old photos. So, we’ll have an additional– – Reminiscing? – Yes. – I love nostalgia. – So, tune into LTAT this Saturday. Look at this. I get to be a More and give a plug for LTAT. This is nice. – So weird. – So weird. – Just one time, Stevie, we’re gonna se how it goes. – That’s falling over, brother. – I’m nervous about that flame on the side. – Should we hold and then light? – Hold them so that, yeah. – Seems like Rhett has a plan. – Is this a challenge? This is also a challenge. – This is not LTAT, so he’s gonna have the control. – Okay! – I think this is how it has to be done. There’s one in there that needs to be lit. And then there’s one here and then I can help a little bit, ’cause you know, I still do a little work around here. – Josh, these are beautiful. Wherever Josh is. – For sure. ♪ Happy birthday to us ♪ ♪ Happy birthday to GMM ♪ ♪ Happy birthday to Good Mythical Morning ♪ ♪ Happy birthday to you, us, it! ♪ – And many more! Everybody blow! – Oh we did it. – Everybody make a, oh you wish first. (groans) – We’re gonna have to light them again. – I wished. – All my wishes have already come true. – What are they, is what I wanna know. – It looks like a, um. That one’s huge, I dunno if I can– – [Jen] They look like pancakes. – [Chase] People can share. – [Alex] What’s in the middle? – [Link] Uh, there ain’t that many plates but here, this plate can go to the back. So these are birthday cake tacos. But the specifics. It kind of looks like it’s a crepe shell. – It’s good. – [Jen] What’s inside, frosting? – [Rhett] Birthday cake. – You want the first bite? – You sure you don’t want it? – [Jen] I feel like there’s a lot of frosting in it. – [Stevie] I’ll have the second bite. – So the question is, birthday cake, will it taco? Let’s see if we can assess that. – [Rhett] Oh, man, that’s really good, wow. I mean it just tastes like birthday cake. – [Jen] Link. – My mics on my shoulder. – [Rhett] I got a candle. – Wow, it smells great. – [Stevie] That’s really good, Josh. – [Josh] I know. – Here’s some napkins. – I kind of want, I’m gonna do a second bite. – Whoa! – So pretty much everybody here had to come on back when we used to haze people. You can’t do that anymore. We would make you eat something really nasty on your first Good Mythical More. I’m not gonna step on anything you’re gonna do on LTAT if I ask people if they remember what they ate? – No, but thank you for asking, Rhett. – I wasn’t even talking. – I care about you, Stevie. – Thank you, Rhett. – Okay, do you remember what you ate? Just popcorn style. – I didn’t have to. – Some of us were so early it was before that even. – My first episode or More I had to answer questions about America. (hearty laughing) – I think they were impromptu questions. We didn’t plan it, we were just grilling you. – No, all of a sudden you were just like hey, come in here, get on set. I was like, what? – Answer questions about America! – [Stevie] That’s a different kind of hazing. We also don’t do that anymore. – Yeah, yeah, yeah. We don’t do any sort of hazing anymore. – But who, I mean, with the hot peppers– – I feel like that was the first time I ever ate anything. – Morgan got one on his face. You dropped the hot pepper on Morgan’s face. – [Alex] You dropped it on his face. He got a red mark on his face, remember that? – [Link] It’s still there. – Which hot pepper was it? – [Alex] It was a Carolina Reaper. – Oh, oh, yes, because that’s when we went to have like diner food. – Oh, Coral Cafe. But that was habanero. – We didn’t make you guys eat The Reaper. – [Alex] Yeah you did. – You cut it up into pieces. – I would never have done that. – I only ate a habanero, I think. – I ate the hottest pepper in the world at the time. You cut it up into pieces and he gave it to you. – Yes – And you dropped it on Morgan’s face, and the his face turned red. (laughing) – I had a blood nog, that was my first one. – You wanna do that again? – You had? – Blood nog, I think was my first one. – Oh! – And you know what I have never eaten pig since then. – Wow, really? – You rejected a whole animal. – Not, no bacon. – Are you serious? – I’m serious! – You don’t do any meat though right. – What? – Kevin, you have never eaten pork? Since we made you eat pork blood? – True. – Well I’ve said that before, we are doing a service for people. – You know what, we have got a treat for you. (laughing) – Change your mind. – Kevin is a vegetarian now. – This is so good. – No, it doesn’t fully define that, it sounded cooler when you said you didn’t eat pig anymore, but what you really meant is that you don’t eat meat. – I think this show has turned a lot of people to vegetarians. – I’m a vegetarian. – You see people who work here, and also the world. – [Link] I think it was Alex’s girlfriend that turned him into. – [Alex] No, no. – [Rhett] That’s the thing, everybody is like, why are you eating all that meat? We probably turned thousands of people into vegetarian. So you’re welcome. – [Alex] You helped. (people talking together) – Blood nog was definitely one of the worst things I’ve had here, on the show, though. – You had it too? – It wasn’t like my first thing, but I made it. – Jay samples everything to make sure it won’t kill us. – Joe thought you were a pepper. – Got into the, without that intention, it was more just making sure that it worked. My first thing. – Tell them about your first thing. – It was like Greek candy, that a fan had sent. It had like a wick through it, that I ate and more. – Had a wick? – It was like a nut and jelly. – It was wicked Greek candy! – Thing with a wick. That’s weird. – I almost threw up by eating the tea pizza, remember that? – [All] Oh yeah! – I like was close. – Which we hired Josh to do, right? – No, that was Burger. – The tea pizza really screwed me up. Who knew? – You don’t drink tea since then? – No, I drink it more actually, so I don’t know what happened there. – She didn’t have pig tea since. – KC did we make you, I know you said you didn’t wanna talk. (hearty laughing) – Did we make you eat something? – I ate the Umeboshi blob. – Oh sour. – I guess I don’t eat meat, now I can’t have gluten, so I’m really limited. – So you are pretty much left with plums. – The earlier More I remember from KC, was when we brought KC out and she talked about, sneezing, when you were talking about going into the ocean and sneezing and then breaking. – Oh, when I was 13 we went to Mexico– – Oh yeah! – I sneezed and broke my tailbone. – Oh yeah. – And we brought her out to tell that story. – We got a great sneezing story. – I haven’t heard that. – Look I eat fish. (hearty laughing) – Look man. – Look dude. – I’m not crazy! – It was just, the blood nog, I was like this close to already not eating red meat anymore because it just doesn’t sit well with me. And then no one would drink the blood nog. I don’t know if you guys remember, no one would do it, then I was behind the camera, and I said, okay I will do it. Because I was new, and I was trying to be cool. (laughing) – Trying to start yourself. – It worked man. – It was appetizing. – You also cut your hair immediately after that. – I have some beautiful long hair photos of Kevin. – You hade a mane, when you first started working here. – Its coming back now. – Is it coming back? – I don’t know maybe. – Maybe. – You had really long hair. – Everybody’s is technically coming back all the time. – Unless your bald. – You could be bald. – Oh that true I’m sorry. – I have a haircut appointment, this weekend actually. – Because you going bold, or? – No just because. – I thought you said a hair club appointment. (hearty laughing) – Because that would be if you were bold. – We’ve been through it guys. Its been a good run. – Is this how it ends? (hearty laughing) – So go collect your last paychecks, and be on your way. – We gathered you together, in order to. – [Narrator] Grab a front row seat and listen in as we explore life’s most interesting questions.
