(cock-a-doodle-doo) (roaring) (slam) (roulette wheel spinning) – (claps) Welcome to Good Mythical More. – All right, Gifticality. Wow, we’re spending money on an episode, let’s go ahead and spend some more for a good cause. – I’m all for this. – We’re donating $1000 to Action Against Hunger to aid in their efforts of treating and preventing malnutrition as well as a global goal to eradicate life threatening hunger within this lifetime. Please join us in giving at ActionAgainstHunger.org. – Thank you for being your mythical best. Thank you Action Against Hunger for all the work that you do as well. – Let’s welcome a very special guest, Mr Lance Rubin. – Yeah. (applause) – Lance is a good friend and also our key collaborator on the Lost Causes of Bleak Creak. – Yeah. When the book came out and afterwards you were celebrating along with us ’cause you saw all of the– – I was there. – All the positive responses. – People were happy, people were liking it. – Yeah, we really appreciate all of you who’ve read the book and left feedback and reviews and have encouraged other people to read it. There’s a lot of people who were like, you know I don’t like to read but I’m into this thing. – Yeah, that’s nice. – Turns out our book is for non-readers. – That’s our target audience. People who don’t read. – That’s the demographic for books. – So you’re in from Brooklyn. – Yeah, I wanted to put it, wear this so you knew exactly where I was coming from. So they knew. – Where are you from again? – Brooklyn. – Yeah, we were doing a long distance collaboration, we got a long distance relationship. – That’s nice. – And you got a new book, bring out Lance’s latest book. – Dude. – Wa-bam. – Oh, you got it. – Crying laughing? – Yes, there it is. – Is it sad? – It is sad, so you’ll do some crying. – Is it funny? – But it’s more funny. I say the ratio leans toward funny. – I would say it walks the delicate line between comedy and tragedy without faltering once. – (laughing) You’re reading one of the blurbs. – This sharp-witted take on how humor can exist and be a source of strength, even in the saddest of moments. – That is so meaningful, just those words that you just expressed. – I wish I wrote that. I mean I wish you would’ve asked me to write it. This is a sore subject. – That’s true. You said we weren’t gonna bring that up. (laughing) – So get Crying Laughing, guys. – Check that out anywhere books are sold. – And also. – Yes, this is amazing. – Go way back, you see, there’s a sequel to this but if you’re just starting you also get Denton Little’s Death Date. – Yep, and that one has some sad in it too but it’s mainly a dark comedy. Dark comedic adventure. – So you see why we were great collaborators on The Lost Causes of Bleak Creak if you read it. – Lance likes the dark things, but also the funny things. – I do, I like both. – So, do you like ice cream? – I hate ice cream. I love ice cream! – Okay. (laughs) – I do. I do love ice cream very much. – Who doesn’t? – Ben and Jerry’s has brought the magic. – So we’re gonna guess, we’re gonna hear a description of a flavor and then guess whether or not it’s real or not. If it’s real it will be presented to us and then we will enjoy it, but I will also be– – Real is the Scoop of Truth. Fake is I Call Bullpoop. – Because I won, Link, I will enjoying your favorite dessert which is just a big o spoonful of cookie dough. First of all, just so I can claim it. – It’s not just cookie dough. Oh, dang it. You’re not even gonna share with Lance? – I covered every bit of that. – That’s chocolate chipless chocolate chip cookie dough. – Mmm. – Which if I had my way, that’s my favorite dessert but nobody sells it. – Chocolate chipless. – I have to pick out the chocolate chips. – In case you had of won, you were going to eat my favorite dessert which is this earl gray tea pie from Pie Hole which, ooh, it doesn’t get any better than that. – All right. – You can enjoy that. – Should I pass this over? Okay. – Yeah, you can also taste it, it’s really good. – Thank you. – I’ve had it before. – There’s a hair in this dough. – (laughs) It’s chipless, not hairless. – It probably came from your mustache, man. All right, the first potentially fake, maybe real Ben and Jerry’s ice cream is Karamel Sutra Core. So the core Ben and Jerry’s, there’s a couple of those that I like. I don’t know if this one exists. – Can I see the name of that? – Karamel Sutra. – Caramel with a K. That’s very Ben and Jerry’s. – Some innuendo in this, would they do that? – Do they go that far? – That feels inappropriate. – Right to the Kamasutra? – I’m calling Bullpoop on this. – Karamel Sutra, yeah, I’m going too. – My instincts say to say that it’s not real, but you know what? As my dad once told me, chicken (beep) is not a curse word in Vermont, so I’m gonna go this with Scoop of Truth, I think they’re willing to go a little to push the limits up there. – Bullpoop. – What’s the truth? Who’s gonna tell us? We’ll never know, guys, next one. – Great. (laughs) – Oh, thank you, Morgan. – It’s real! – Well, hold on. – Yeah, that’s real. – Yeah, they didn’t make that. – We can make some stuff that looks real. – No, but that’s real. – So what’s in that? – Karamel Sutra Core is chocolate and caramel ice creams with fudge chips and a soft caramel core. – Okay, all right. – All right, here’s the next one. – How do you say that word? A lot of people say this different. – I say ca-ra-mel. – Ca-ra-mel? – I think so. – Yeah, me too. – You too? – But some people say car-mal. – Yeah. – I say car-a-mel. – Cool, we’re all on team car-a-mel. – I’ve already had so much desert I’m just gonna let that be put back into the freezer. – Churro Row Row Your Boat. – That’s not real. – That’s not clever enough. – Yeah, it doesn’t live up to the Ben and Jerry’s standard. – Sorry, writers. That’s not clever enough. – There has to be a churro one, though. – Yeah, but it’s not that one. – A churro ice cream. – That’s some Bullpoop. – [Stevie] I’m back. Our lancers– Lancers. (laughs) – You’ve been at Lancers? – Lancers is a restaurant. – I’m back, I’ve been at Lancers. – [Stevie] No, that was a combination of Lance and answers. Are your answers locked in? – Yes. – Locked. – This is fake. – Yeah. – Yeah. – Ben and Jerry’s, the development people at Ben and Jerry’s, did Link say it was true? – [Male Voice Offscreen] Yes. – Oh, well. – I’m trying to pull ahead, man. – Okay, well, keep trying. – Coffee Coffee Buzz Buzz Buzz. (laughing) So, is there like honey in this thing? – Honey, yeah, that’s a honey coffee flavor for sure. – Oh really? – Buzz Buzz Buzz. – No I just agreed that that’s what that would be. Coffee Coffee Buzz Buzz Buzz. – I think this is for reals. – Three buzzes though? – Ah. – That’s a lot of buzzes. – I think it’s real and I think it’s where the writers got the idea for the Row Row Row Your Boat ’cause they saw a word repeat three times. – (laughs) They liked the triples. – So I think this is a Scoop of Truth and I’m really looking forward to enjoying it. – Lance? – No, I don’t think that’s real. Coffee Coffee Buzz Buzz Buzz. – Is it real? – [Stevie] There should be physical proof. – Oh. – Yes! – Oh man, you’re right, it gave them the Row Row Row idea. – So the “Buzz Buzz Buzz” has nothing to do with honey. – It’s not bees. – It’s just the caffeine. – It’s just the caffeine. – Oh, it’s gonna make you buzz. – How do you say the word caffeine? – Caf-i-en. – Oh, yep. How do you say the word espresso? – Express, yo. – Yep, mm-hm. – On the same page. – Do you like coffee flavor in your ice cream? – Yeah, I do. – It’s not my favorite. If someone puts it in front of me. – Some people are scared off by that. – I went through a stunt where I would eat coffee ice cream from Trader Joe’s, I think Trader Joe’s flavor was really good. – I though you were gonna say what you ate it out of. I was excited to hear. – From a troth. – Yeah, from a troth. It was just what I was doing at that time. Coffee ice cream out of a troth. – Well in college we would have these events where you would eat ice cream out of a… – A shoe? – I was about to say a shingle but what’s it called? A gutter. A roof gutter. – Gutter? – Yeah, like you’d have this long gutter and then everyone would put their ice cream in it to eat out of. – I didn’t go to those events. – Good times. – It was cool. – The golden days of york. – It was pretty cool. – Eating those gutter ice creams. – Matcha Do About Nothing. – Matcha Do About Nothing. – That feels good to me. Feels real is what I mean by good. – Yeah, it’s got that cheesiness. – That’s a good pun. – Yeah, it’s a great pun. – Now I would think that you, Rhett, you like some Matcha, so have you? – I do, and I do like a green tea flavored ice cream but I didn’t know that Ben and Jerry’s had it and I haven’t had this. – If they did have it I think this is what they would call it. – Or, I could see them doing Matcha Matcha Man. I could see that. – Okay. – But the they’d land with this. – I feel like this is real, yeah. – Matcha Do About Nothing. – I’ve said it’s real. – Yeah, real. – We’re all agreeing. – [Stevie] It is… Fake. – Ah! – Aw, man. – That was good, guys, you fooled us. – Yeah, you should pitch Ben and Jerry’s, Ben or Jerry on that. I think you only have to talk to one of them at a time. They’re never together, they hate each other. – Oat of This Swirled. – Oat of This Swirled? – So an oat milk ice cream swirled with something? – That’s definitely real and definitely good. – I don’t think that’s real. Don’t they have another whirl flavor? – You can have so many whirls. – You can do a lot of whirls. – They have a sub-series that’s oat milk, I think. – Oh. – You think it’s just the oat milk? Or you think it’s oat, like oatmeal flavored? – No. – Why are you so certain? No. I think it’s real. – I think it’s not real. – Oh shoot, okay, who’s in the lead, Rhett? – Yeah, Rhett’s in the lead by a lot. – Well I gotta try to get a point with him, I guess. – [Stevie] It is… Real. – Ah, yes. – Buttery brown sugar ice cream with fudge flakes and oatmeal cinnamon cookie swirl. – So it is oatmeal cookie? It’s not oat milk. – Yeah, you were right, I was wrong. – Let me see some of that. I like oat, you’re an oatmeal man. – That sounds nice. – You like oatmeal cookies. – There’s an oatmeal cookie dough flavor that’s one of my favorites that’s why… – They’ve got two oatmeal cookie flavors. – I wanna taste that one. – And they also have One Sweet Whirled I think. – They’re not afraid, you know? – Lance, if you wanna taste any of these you can, but I gotta taste this. – I’m into this one. I’m gonna taste this one. – There’s a spoon – Thank you. – Get some of that. They usually have good, big chunks of the things that are in there. – Ooh, and it’s perfectly melted too. – Yeah, that’s ideal. – Man, I love good ice cream. – That tastes like oatmeal cookie. – Yeah, that’s nice. – Now, are both Ben and Jerry still alive? – [Male Voice Offscreen] Yes. – [Stevie] I believe we’ve already asked and answered this question. – ‘Cause there was a rumor about one of them being dead. – That was nice. – I started that rumor and then we looked it up. – You started the rumor of one of them being dead? – Yeah, oatmeal cookie dough – That’s very good. – is one of my top three. I didn’t know that existed. – Oh, I got a whole spoon full of cookie dough right here. – I saw what you did. How would you say that? – Yeah, what’s the pun there? – I don’t get it. – I don’t know. Pecan Resist. – (imitating Italian accent) Pecan Resist. – Oh, what? – Pecan Resist. – Piece de resistance? – Yeah, but it doesn’t really work. – Yeah. – So who should be embarrassed about this one? – (laughs) What is that one? – Ben and Jerry, or you guys? (slight laughter) – This is on us. – (laughs) You know what? I’m gonna say this is fake and then I’m gonna have you guys explain your joke. – [Stevie] Rude. This is real. – No it’s not! – What? – Okay, all right. – What? (slam) – Whoa man! – It’s resistance flavor. Oh, that’s amazing. (laughing) – What is that? – Like join the resistance. – [Stevie] We can. – Oh. – It’s we can resist. – Okay, so it’s white and dark fudge chunks, pecans, walnuts and fudge covered almonds. – And read the story on the side. – That’s amazing. – Welcome to the resistance. Together Pecan Resist. We honor and stand with women, immigrants, people of color and the millions of activists and allies who are courageously resisting the president’s attack on our values, humanity and environment. – That’s amazing. – We celebrate the diversity of our glorious nation and raise our spoons in solidarity for all Americans. Take a stand and join those on the front lines and benjerry.com/pecanresist. – Boy, don’t we feel stupid for making fun of that one. – That got real. That got very real, very fast. – We made fun hardcore. – I’m so sorry. – If we don’t eat this and like it we’re gonna be canceled so just do it. – We thought it was a badly written ice cream flavor and it’s actually the most meaningful flavor of this whole thing. – Yeah, let’s forget that we denigrated it. – That’s good. I like the chocolate based ones in general. – Delicious. – I love a little bit of meltage like that. Okay. – That’s good. – Is that the last one? – Fudge. (coughs) Oh God, almonds. – [Stevie] Yeah. – Okay? – It wasn’t but you just said yes. (Stevie laughs) Just like, yeah, there’s not anymore down there. – [Stevie] Yeah, but, Rhett, that means you won. – Yay! – (laughs) You won. – What’s my prize? Lance Rubin’s books. – Hold on, you mean Big Snick Energy is not a Ben and Jerry’s flavor? (laughing) – That’s good. – [Stevie] No. – [Rhett] This Valentine’s day we’re celebrating puppy love with discounts on our storywear and pet collection items for a limited time at mythical.com.
